Chapter 349 Nightfall (Please read as a chapter)
After the guests finished dinner, Jia Renlu eloquently announced the final ownership of the snowflake amber.
Jia Renlu's words were clever, preserving the dignity of the Duan and Mansfield families. The guests secretly cursed the old man for being cunning and causing them to miss a good show.
The auction was over. As night fell, the guests had to rest on the yacht for the night before returning home the next day.
After many days, Jiang Huiyi lived in the same room with Duan Hongji again.
Unlike the uneasy mood when she was in the same room with Duan Hongji for the first time, Jiang Huiyi's heart at this moment was filled with sour warmth and bitter sweetness, just like a cup of overflowing, spoiled honey.
Duan Hongji quickly washed up, walked into the room, and began to rummage through the closet as usual.
After searching for a while, Duan Hongji stopped and frowned.
The yacht was naturally different from the Duan family's, as there were no two beds for sleeping on the floor.
Under the dim light, Jiang Huiyi saw Duan Hongji casually close the cabinet door and then turn around.
"We can't sleep on the floor here." Jiang Huiyi mustered up her courage and said, "How about we sleep on one bed and draw a 38th parallel?"
"No need." Duan Hongji said, "I'll call the waiter and ask them to bring another bed."
Jiang Huiyi couldn't help but stood up and said, "Aren't you trying to pretend to be a loving couple with me? How can a loving couple sleep in separate beds? Boss - how come your acting skills are worse than mine?"
Duan Hongji glanced at Jiang Huiyi, his expression neither happy nor angry: "It doesn't matter, I just said I was afraid of the cold. No one will care about such a small matter."
Duan Hongji was about to press the room bell when he suddenly felt a warm sensation from behind him!
"Do you really hate me that much?"
Jiang Huiyi hugged Duan Hongji from behind and cried, "Do you really hate me so much?"
……
Duan Hongji lowered his eyes and pressed lightly with a little skill. Jiang Huiyi's hands suddenly became numb and dropped involuntarily.
This cold-blooded action chilled Jiang Huiyi's heart. Through her tearful eyes, she saw Duan Hongji turn around and said to her tiredly, "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it after we get off the boat. How about that?"
Jiang Huiyi's heart suddenly sank into a bottomless black hole.
She would rather Duan Hongji blame her, ridicule her, or even use his boss's attitude to pressure her, than to treat her in such a tired and bored way!
Why wait until we get off the boat? After getting off the boat, the amber will belong to Duan Hongji completely. By then, Jiang Huiyi will be completely useless. Duan Hongji can throw her away like a piece of garbage and a burden!
Don’t even think about it – don’t even think about it.
Duan Hongji, don't even think about abandoning her!
There are only things in this world that Jiang Huiyi doesn't want, and no one can ever abandon her, Jiang Huiyi!
Seeing that Jiang Huiyi didn't say anything, Duan Hongji ignored her and went to press the bell to call the waiter. Just as his fingertips were about to touch the button, Jiang Huiyi suddenly said, "I know why you want to take a picture of that piece of amber."
Duan Hongji paused, his voice was calm: "This has nothing to do with you."
"Of course it has nothing to do with me." Jiang Huiyi sneered, "I know you want to take that broken stone to see your A-Xia, right?"
Duan Hongji turned around suddenly, with an extremely terrifying expression on his face!
Jiang Huiyi almost thought Duan Hongji was going to strangle her, but he didn't. Almost instantly, Duan Hongji calmed down: "So what?"
"How is it?" Jiang Huiyi seemed to have heard a funny joke, "Duan Hongji, Duan Hongji, are you really stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid?"
Duan Hongji stood there without moving, but Jiang Huiyi walked forward neurotically step by step, approaching the man who broke her heart.
"Master Er requires that the buyer of the amber hand it over to his wife personally—"
Jiang Huiyi laughed and said, "Who is your wife? Who do you think your wife is? You don't want to say that it's the dead person buried underground!"
Duan Hongji suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Huiyi's neck!
Duan Hongji's dark eyes were sparkling with anger, like a piece of ice soaked in ink. Just looking at those eyes, Jiang Huiyi felt intoxicated and almost died without regrets.
"Are you going to kill me?" Jiang Huiyi laughed wildly, "Are you going to kill your wife? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha... Duan Hongji! You have tolerated me until today, isn't it just for this broken stone!"
Duan Hongji tightened his grip slightly, as if he was trying hard to control his urge to kill.
"Kill me! Kill me! Let your love and my love perish together!" Jiang Huiyi laughed as if reciting an opera, "If you don't kill me, you will have to hand over the amber to me honestly tomorrow... Do you think that I will return it to you after I get it..."
The veins on Duan Hongji's hand bulged, and the veins on his forehead also jumped twice. The raging rage was about to burst out -
Just when the world-destroying flood was about to overturn the sky, the strength in Duan Hongji's hands suddenly loosened.
The next second, all expressions on Duan Hongji's face disappeared, not even a trace of anger.
Duan Hongji withdrew his hand, took out two tissues from the bedside, and wiped his hands slowly.
Jiang Huiyi covered her neck, took a few deep breaths, and her face turned slightly red.
Why is Duan Hongji not angry anymore?
Why did Duan Hongji let go?
Jiang Huiyi looked at Duan Hongji in doubt and surprise. Compared with the furious Duan Hongji just now, the calm Duan Hongji in front of her made her feel more uneasy.
Duan Hongji looked at Jiang Huiyi indifferently, uttering harsh and sarcastic words:
"So you're going on strike?"
Jiang Huiyi had imagined all the hurtful sentences that could come out of Duan Hongji's mouth, but when she actually heard these words, her body still swayed slightly and she almost fell to the ground!
How can a person be so cold-blooded?
How much more does a heart need to be hurt before it stops hurting?
Duan Hongji's face was filled with the arrogance that Jiang Huiyi was familiar with, which was the expression he would have when facing an enemy or competitor.
Duan Hongji slowly opened his lips and said in a brisk tone: "If you are not satisfied with the salary and benefits, we can talk about it."
!!!
Jiang Huiyi felt a black screen in front of her eyes and almost fainted.
How could Duan Hongji humiliate her like this!
This is Duan Hongji. When he wants to hurt others, he often only needs the simplest words and the calmest tone to make his enemies feel like death.
Now, is it Jiang Huiyi's turn to become Duan Hongji's enemy?
Jiang Huiyi felt that her tears had dried up and her heart was full of holes, unable to accommodate any more arrows.
She looked into Duan Hongji's cold eyes and suddenly realized that this man knew everything.
He knew Jiang Huiyi loved him, he just didn't care.
He knew that he could easily use this love to hurt Jiang Huiyi, but he was unwilling to do so.
It was not until today, after Jiang Huiyi deeply hurt this man's heart with Axia, that Duan Hongji picked up this weapon and dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Huiyi.
This was Duan Hongji's response to Jiang Huiyi's crazy behavior just now.
Jiang Huiyi covered her heart, feeling waves of suffocation spreading. The pain in her heart was like a surging sea of suffering, drowning her.
She couldn't hold on any longer and suddenly fell to her knees!
Duan Hongji glanced at Jiang Huiyi and said nothing more. He just said, "Calm down." Then he walked out of the room.
------
After arranging the ordinary guests participating in the auction, Jia Renlu turned around, went down the second deck, and walked into the basement on the bottom floor of the yacht.
The basement had long been transformed into an extremely luxurious banquet hall, which was extremely well sealed and had first-rate sound insulation. The ordinary auctioneers who lived on the second floor would never have imagined that there was such a place on the bottom floor of the yacht.
The well-dressed guests had been waiting in the basement for a long time - these were all the guests for this Dark Blood Banquet. There were many more people this time than the last banquet, because in addition to the guests, there were also doctors and research teams they brought with them.
The collision of the distinguished guests' gorgeous clothes and the doctors' cold white coats has a weird and strange feeling.
Jia Renlu shuddered and smiled apologetically at the guests, "Please forgive me, please forgive me. I was delayed by something."
The male protagonist of the Urban Dragon King novel laughed and said, "Boss Jia has made a great contribution by finding a place to hold a banquet in such a tight spot. There is no need to be too modest."
Gu Xichen also smiled and said, "Boss Jia has worked hard, having to manage both the auction and the banquet."
Another guest asked, "Where is Miss Jia? I saw her during the day."
Jia Renlu explained hurriedly: "Jinjin is in charge of the auction. She is a little girl, not like a strong man like us. She just told me that she is too tired and needs to rest for a while. She will come back later."
Is the Dark Blood Banquet a place where you can come and go as you please? However, Jia Renlu and Jia Qianjin were really tired, so no one could say anything more.
We are all in the same boat. Miss Jia has already boarded the pirate ship, so she won't give up her hope of eternal life. There is nothing to worry about.
After Jia Renlu finished explaining, he asked impatiently, "Where's the Immortal Pig? I heard it was found?"
"Yeah." Gu Xichen was very excited. "This person——found it."
The Russian who found the immortal pig had an awkward identity, and Gu Xichen had not yet figured out how to address him.
Fyodor walked forward and nodded slightly to Jia Renlu.
This Russian guy was like an iron tower and had a strong sense of oppression. Jia Renlu did not dare to look him in the eye. He smiled a few times and asked, "Shall we start now?"
Before Gu Xichen could say anything, the male protagonist of Urban Dragon King couldn't wait to say, "Hurry up! Stop talking nonsense! I brought a professional medical team from the United States this time. They are all the world's top elites!"
An old man with a white beard nearby snorted coldly: "What's so great about that! My Tang Sect has been practicing medicine for generations. How can the younger generation in our family be vegetarians?"
President Ye also said: "I have hired the best team of surgeons in Germany. They are absolutely reliable."
The guests were talking in a flurry, and everyone brought a set of equipment for performing an open-heart operation. The best doctors in the entire dark world were all here.
Gu Xichen made a gesture and the scene suddenly became quiet.
"Time is running out, so of course we should start as soon as possible. To be honest, Mr. Di has already brought the Immortal Pig!"
This sentence was like a voice-controlled switch, and the crowd automatically made way for it.
Several bodyguards pushed the fat "immortal pig" on a cart, slowly walked to the open area of the hall, and placed him on the operating table that had been prepared long ago.
When everyone looked over, they saw that the immortal pig had its eyes closed like last time, lying unconsciously on the operating table. Apart from breathing, it looked almost like a dead pig.
Everyone looked at the entrance of the cart again, and apart from the bodyguards, no one else followed in.
"Where is Mr. Di?" someone asked.
Gu Xichen explained: "Mr. Di is not in good health. He feels very uncomfortable at sea and has already rested."
In fact, Di Wanshu’s original words were “I’m going to say goodbye to a friend”, but this sentence obviously cannot be said as an excuse.
"Who cares where he is!" the male protagonist of Urban Dragon King said impatiently, "If he doesn't come, we won't do anything?"
President Ye stabbed, "Are you so impatient?"
"You're such a grandson!" The male protagonist of Urban Dragon King sneered, "Are you not in a hurry? You are twenty years older than your woman. You must be dreaming of rejuvenation!"
President Ye's face changed, but he didn't refute it. The male protagonist of Urban Dragon King was famous for his poor quality at the Dark Blood Banquet, and no one was too lazy to argue with him.
The dinner was served, and it didn't really matter whether Di Wanshu arrived or not. The male protagonist of Urban Dragon King pulled over a doctor with a high nose and deep eyes, and said excitedly: "John! This is the immortal pig I told you about last time!"
John is a perverted medical maniac who was expelled from his research lab for being too inhumane. It was the male protagonist of Urban Dragon King who took him in and made John his personal doctor.
John looked at the immortal pig and shrugged. "Excuse me, except for being too fat, I don't see anything special about this fat man."
Several other doctors couldn't help but come over.
They are all well-known experts and masters in their respective fields, and it is hard to find a meeting with them at a high price. If these guests had not given too much and said that they would definitely let them see miracles they have never seen in their lives, they would not have come to this yacht.
Unlike the honorable guests, these doctors and scientists could not move around the yacht freely. They had been locked in the basement for the entire day and were all very angry.
The male protagonist of Urban Dragon King didn't waste any words. He picked up a scalpel and said, "You don't believe it? I'll show you right now!"
The other person looked completely amateurish in holding the knife. John shook his head and said, "As you please."
The male protagonist of Urban Dragon King was also decisive and inserted the knife into the heart of the Immortal Pig!
"Ouch!"
There was a burst of exclamations from the crowd, not from the guests, but from the doctors.
No one expected that the protagonist of Urban Dragon King would actually kill someone directly!
The doctors all stepped back, even John jumped back subconsciously!
"Look at how cowardly you are." The Urban Dragon King male protagonist sneered, "Just wait and see. Five - four - three - two - one!"
silence.
After counting five, there was silence. The male protagonist of Urban Dragon King lowered his head and looked at the wound on the immortal pig with pride.
As he watched, he suddenly took a step back in horror and let out a scream!
"This is impossible!"
