Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart

C20 Mysterious Man Behind the Scenes

Gu Tinye and Mu Yan, who were sitting in the front, also heard Gu Tingxiao's bid. They turned around and glanced at him. "I didn't expect you to know how to buy things to flatter women."

"I learned it from big brother." Gu Tingxiao had a cold expression on his face.

He replied indifferently, making it so that Gu Tinye couldn't find an opportunity to pick a fight with Gu Tingxiao even if he wanted to.

"It's only right for us Gu family men to be generous, but isn't it a bit too shabby to be your sister-in-law's wedding present?"

If a man gave a woman a poor gift, it would only make him look petty.

"Big brother Ye, my sister won't care. She doesn't know these brands anyway." Mu Yan purposely belittled Mu Li.

Mu Li had been driven crazy by the medical fees all these years, so how could he have the money to buy these luxury goods? He must have been envious and got Gu Tingxiao to buy them for her.

Mu Li smiled but wasn't angry.

"I don't wear any of these luxury goods, but I'm happy that my husband is willing to buy them for me. I'm not like big sister, as long as I act like a spoiled child I can have a gift. "

Mu Yan's expression changed immediately after hearing that. "Are you saying that I have to act like a spoiled child to get a present? Mu Li, let me tell you, even if I don't want it, Big Brother Ye will buy it for me! "

"This is your private matter, I'm not interested to know." Mu Li had never wanted to deal with this woman. If this woman hadn't provoked him, she wouldn't have bothered with him.

However, after Mu Li finished speaking, Mu Yan actually raised the plate in Gu Tinye's hand. "1 million."

Gu Ting Ye frowned. He really didn't care about money, but Mu Yan acted on her own and called out a price for him, which still made him feel somewhat disgusted.

1 million, Mu Li thought to himself. She didn't know how much Gu Tingxiao would pay, but 1 million was definitely not a small sum.

"Ting Chen, I don't want this necklace. Since I don't like wearing one, it's useless to buy it."

Gu Tingxiao smiled. He obviously knew what Mu Li was thinking about.

Ling Xiao then turned around and whispered a few words into Ling Xiao's ear. Ling Xiao then made an 'OK' gesture, stood up and left the venue.

On stage, the host was just about to shout out 1 million, when a staff member ran up to him and whispered into his ear.

The host looked embarrassed, "Sorry, this necklace has already been bought by someone, so this last item will be cancelled."

Mu Yan hadn't expected such a thing to happen. She had originally planned to compete with Gu Tingxiao and embarrass Mu Li. She hadn't expected that the auction would be cancelled.

It was a common occurrence in previous years. Some mysterious buyers who were unwilling to reveal their identities would go backstage and find their owners to buy the items at a high price. The price would usually be higher than the price on the stage.

I just don't know who bought the necklace from behind.

"Aiya, what a coincidence. The necklace that little sister likes has been bought by someone else."

Mu Yan turned her head to look at Mu Li behind her. "How about I discuss this with that person and have him give this necklace to little sister?"

These words were like two birds with one stone. Not only did Mu Li not obtain anything, he even indirectly said that Gu Tingxiao was a useless person.

How could Mu Li allow Mu Yan to insult Gu Tingxiao like that? He immediately countered with a domineering tone.

"Big sister is so impressive. Since she bought this necklace anonymously, it means that she doesn't want to reveal her identity. Why would she give big sister room for discussion?" Isn't this sister praising herself too much? "

"You …" Mu Yan wanted to pretend to be forgiving and magnanimous, but she discovered that Mu Li's every word could make her explode with anger.

"Mu Li, why don't you look at what you are? If it wasn't for marrying into the Gu family, what qualifications do you have to come to a place like this!"

Mu Li's expression was still as calm as ever. "Big Sister and I originally had the same roots. What am I? What is that big sister and I?"

"Mu Li …"

"Enough!" Just as Mu Ming approached, he heard two people arguing and coughed loudly. He became even more disappointed with Mu Yan, his granddaughter. "I told you to go home, why are you still here? You want to embarrass our Mu Family? "

She had always had high hopes for Mu Yan, but she didn't expect that a few words from Mu Li could cause her to become flustered. Not only did Mu Yan not gain the upper hand over her two granddaughters, her temperament and experience didn't seem to be as good as Mu Li's.

How could such a granddaughter possibly bring the Mu family up to new heights in the future? It would be good if he didn't drag the family down!

With this thought in mind, Mu Ming began to have a headache.

"Grandfather, Mu Li bullied me."

"Shut up and come home with me right now." He glanced at Gu Tingxiao and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't educate my granddaughter well enough."

Then, he glanced at Mu Li once more before turning around and leaving.

Gu Ting Ye just looked indifferently at the couple without saying a word. However, he knew in his heart that this Mu Li wasn't as weak as he appeared on the surface.

Gu Tingxiao and Mu Li did not leave immediately.

"Aren't we going back?" Mu Li asked.

"Wait." The unhappiness he had felt a moment ago was thrown to the back of Gu Ting Chen's mind.

At this moment, a staff member walked in front of Gu Tingxiao with a necklace in hand. "Second Master, this is the necklace that you've bought. I've already wrapped it up for you."

"Thank your manager for me." After he finished speaking, Gu Tingxiao took the necklace and placed it in front of Mu Li.

Seeing the necklace, Mu Li could not help but be surprised. "You bought the necklace?"

Gu Tingxiao smiled in his heart, but his words were more than a thousand.

As long as she liked it, a necklace was nothing.

Gu Tingxiao placed the necklace around Mu Li's neck, "It's very pretty."

Mu Li looked at the tenderness in Gu Tingxiao's eyes and kissed him on the cheek, "Thank you."

Gu Tingxiao was stunned. In the next moment, happiness flashed across his face as he held Mu Li's face and kissed her back as though no one was around.
