In the end, Yang Ting had no choice but to call her mother, Zhang Fang. Zhang Fang paid the money with a grim expression before bringing her back.

When she thought of the fake smile of the auction house manager, Zhang Fang felt angry.

“Tingting, is there something wrong with you?” Zhang Fang looked at her daughter unhappily. “Ten million isn’t a lot, but it’s not a small amount either, right? You’re embarrassing the Yang family! If your father finds out… Sigh!”

Yang Ting’s face was covered in tears. At this moment, she also understood that Wen Nian might not have harmed her. She might have misjudged her, but Jiang Chun had definitely tricked her. In the end, she actually slipped away just like that?

“Mom! It’s not like you don’t know that I like Shen Jun?” Yang Ting cried. “I get angry when I see him with Wen Nian. Besides, what’s wrong with Grandpa Shen? He’s so good to a small celebrity and slapped my face like this in public? Moreover, Jiang Chun actually left without paying!”

“Silly child, it’s all my fault. I’ve spoiled you too much since you were young. You don’t know the dangers of this circle at all.” Zhang Fang looked helpless. “What kind of family is the Jiang family? Jiang Wei is a gigolo who relied on women to make a name for himself! What good can his daughter be? Look at what she did previously!”

Thinking of Jiang Chun’s reputation in the circle and her unpresentable moves against Wen Nian, Zhang Fang smiled with disdain, then with relief. “But with her current reputation, it’s impossible for her to marry into the Shen family. In the end, the young madam of the Shen family will still be chosen from our families.”

Yang Ting’s eyes were filled with hope again, but when she thought of everything that had happened at the auction that day, she quickly lost her confidence. “How is that possible? Didn’t you see how well Grandpa Shen treated Wen Nian today? Moreover, Shen Jun is especially protective of her. How can I still have a chance?”

Zhang Fang caressed her head lovingly. “You’re just too temperamental and have things go your way. Shouldn’t you think about what kind of family the Shen family is? Shen Jun is the only heir of the Shen family. Even the side branches don’t have children of the same generation. The Shen family and the Zhao family have so many resources and money, but in the end, they all belong to him. If Old Mr. Shen doesn’t check on her, won’t Old Master Zhao do it too?”

“Are you saying that the Zhao family will definitely not agree to Wen Nian entering the family?” A smile finally appeared on Yang Ting’s face.

“The Zhao family already has a willful person like Zhao Jiao. Zhao Wen and Zhao Wu aren’t even married. They must be looking for politically successful families to marry.” Yang Ting held her daughter’s hand and said softly, “The Zhao family, which has been in politics for a few generations, values family background the most. I heard that the Wen family is going to do business?”

Yang Ting shook her head in confusion. “I’ve heard that Wen Nian is just a celebrity. How much capital can her family have to do business? Besides, it’s impossible for her to come to the capital, right?”

Zhang Fang sighed. “Know yourself and your enemy and you’ll win every battle! You don’t even know Wen Nian’s background. Today, you were tricked by Jiang Chun. Do you still want to be the young madam of the Shen family? Alright, don’t interfere in this matter. Our family can take action, but we can’t leave any trace behind. If the Wen family wants to do business, we have to see if they have the fate.”

The Wen family’s business was just braised food. In the big families in the capital, this could not even be considered a business, but it was very important to the Wen family.

After the auction ended, Wen Nian received news that the small factory in Guo Nan’s house could be visited at any time. Moreover, Guo Nan’s parents had expressed their willingness to leave the equipment and technicians to the Wen family. This could also help the Wen family get through the adjustment period.

After seeing the WeChat message, Wen Nian couldn’t hide the smile on her face anymore. She handed the phone to Shen Jun and said happily, “As expected of the eldest daughter of the Guo family. She’s really fast! I’ll contact Dad and Mom later and get them to go check it out. I reckon the money our family earned and my salary should be enough.”

“If it’s not enough, I’ll give it to you!” Shen Wei said generously. “I’ll give you these two raw stones today. You can sell them or process them if you want. Take these two raw stones as a greeting gift!”

Wen Nian thought that he was just joking. She didn’t expect him to really give it to her. She was so frightened that she quickly said, “No need, Grandpa. There’s really no need. I just picked it casually. I don’t want your gift.”

Was this a joke? She didn’t dare to accept anything worth more than a hundred million!

Shen Jun wanted to persuade her to accept it. This was the old man’s approval of her, but Wen Nian widened her eyes and shook her head.

“Grandpa, why don’t you give her a pendant? She can wear it everyday.” Shen Jun really couldn’t dissuade Wen Nian, so he could only help her to turn down the two raw stones.

However, he also took into account his grandfather’s thoughts, so he said, “If the Wen family doesn’t have enough money to open a factory, Grandpa can just invest..”
