She abandoned her husband first, then her children, and was ecstatic after the divorce.

Chapter 170 A Well-Played Move: A Secret Tactic

Lin Qingran also looked at Fu Xiuheng coldly, her eyes full of disgust.

"Your wishful thinking will only cause me more pain. From now on, never appear in front of me again."

Fu Xiuheng's face turned pale instantly. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something more, but in the end he could only sigh helplessly.

At this moment, Fu Jingnian also entered the venue. He didn't look to the side and completely ignored Fu Xiuheng's presence. He walked forward with firm steps and sat down next to Lin Qingran.

When Fu Xiuheng saw Fu Jingnian appear, his expression went blank for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and coldly mocked.

"Brother, you really played a clever trick, secretly plotting against me. I didn't even see through your wolfish ambitions."

Fu Jingnian sneered and retorted.

"Stop spouting nonsense. Everyone knows who has ulterior motives."

Lin Qingran frowned and said impatiently.

"At a time like this, can you please stop arguing?"

Fu Xiuheng, however, persisted.

"Today's performance was truly spectacular. Brother, for Qingran's sake, I'll let you off the hook this time, and the land is yours. But who will have the last laugh between us is still uncertain."

Fu Jingnian gave a sarcastic smile, "You should think more about yourself first, and stop thinking about those messy things."

Fu Jingnian paused for a moment, then continued sarcastically.

"You know perfectly well what you did back then."

Fu Xiuheng looked annoyed and felt very unwilling.

He knew that some of his actions back then had indeed indirectly led to Fu Jingnian being kicked out of the house, but he had not been directly involved in it, and he certainly had no intention of harming Fu Jingnian.

Thinking of this, Fu Xiuheng turned to look at Lin Qingran and asked her.

"Do you really value Fu Jingnian?"

Lin Qingran looked at Fu Xiuheng silently without saying a word.

That cold gaze seemed to freeze Fu Xiuheng's heart.

Fu Xiuheng seemed to understand something and nodded.

I will respect all your decisions.

Lin Qingran said sarcastically, "If you really respect me, then stop bothering me."

Fu Xiuheng smiled bitterly, "There's only one thing I can't do."

Lin Qingran took a deep breath and turned her head away from Fu Xiuheng.

She knew that saying another word to this obsessive man would be a waste of breath.

Fu Xiuheng suddenly murmured, "I will definitely show you my sincerity."

He then turned around and returned to his seat.

Lin Qingran glanced sideways at Fu Xiuheng's profile, her mind in turmoil.

Memories of the past flooded back, leaving her feeling utterly exhausted.

Things seemed to be getting increasingly out of my control.

The host walked in with a professional smile on his face.

"Distinguished guests, welcome to this bidding event. The bidding process is now officially underway!"

The host's voice echoed throughout the venue.

Lin Qingran took a deep breath, forcing herself to stop thinking about those messy things and concentrate on dealing with the bidding in front of her.

However, her mind was still not completely at peace. Fu Xiuheng's words and expressions kept flashing through her mind, and she felt a vague unease.

Because of Fu Jingnian's sudden intervention, many companies that Fu Xiuheng had previously dealt with suddenly returned to the battlefield and participated in this bidding.

However, Fu Jingnian had made ample preparations, and as expected, the subsidiary of Shenghai Group successfully acquired the land.

The moment the host announced the results, Lin Qingran and Bo Ye finally relaxed, and relieved smiles appeared on their faces.

Meanwhile, just as he had predicted, Fu Xiuheng suffered a crushing defeat in this bidding process.

But Fu Xiuheng showed no sign of dejection and took the initiative to step forward and extend his hand to Lin Qingran.

"Congratulations on successfully acquiring this land."

Lin Qingran coldly avoided him, as if Fu Xiuheng were a plague-carrying god.

Bo Ye's expression dimmed for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said.

"It's okay, it's alright if you don't accept my blessings. But I sincerely hope you'll be better off, and I will definitely give you more and more resources in the future."

Lin Qingran simply looked at her calmly without saying a word.

Fu Xiuheng's hand froze in mid-air, and the smile on his face turned awkward.

He slowly withdrew his hand and gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"It seems I'll never have a chance to turn things around in your heart. But Qingran, no matter how much you hate me, you don't have to turn down resources that are readily available."

Lin Qingran looked at him coldly, "Fu Xiuheng, don't flatter yourself. I don't need your things."

Fu Xiuheng trembled, a hint of pain flashing in his eyes.

Everything I do is because I love you.

"Your love is too selfish, too terrible." Lin Qingran turned her head away, no longer looking at him.

Bo Ye put his arm around Lin Qingran's shoulder and said.

"Ignore him, let's go."

"Qingran!" Fu Xiuheng stepped forward. "Qingran, I'm begging you, please don't be so cold to me, okay? I can give you anything you want, even the Fu Group."

Lin Qingran showed no emotion whatsoever and retorted sarcastically.

"That's unnecessary. I only like fair competition, not giving things away. Besides, I don't care at all whether you can provide me with resources. I've been running Shenghai Group for so long, and I've never relied on anyone else."

Fu Xiuheng's heart seemed to have been struck suddenly. He stared blankly at Lin Qingran, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He never imagined that his sincere feelings would be so unbearable in Lin Qingran's eyes.

Lin Qingran ignored him and turned away coldly.

Bo Ye followed behind Lin Qingran, glanced back at Fu Xiuheng, and felt a mix of emotions.

A gentle breeze blew by, lifting Lin Qingran's hair.

Fu Xiuheng stared blankly, and for a moment, he really wanted to go up and hug Lin Qingran tightly.

But he didn't dare.

He feared that if he went any further, he would see the look of utter disgust on Lin Qingran's face again.

Lin Qingran wasn't in a much better mood either. She walked out of the venue, suddenly stopped, and looked coldly at Fu Jingnian.

"Did you vent your anger?"

Fu Jingnian was taken aback, then a smile appeared on his face.

"Still feeling it's not enough."

Lin Qingran snorted coldly, "Fu Jingnian, you have helped me a lot, but I know in my heart that you actually want to go back to the Fu Group."

Fu Jingnian was taken aback for a moment, then his gaze became somewhat evasive.

"In the end, he couldn't escape Miss Jiang's eyes."

“I, Jiang Jiuge, have never liked to beat around the bush. In fact, from the moment you first contacted me, I knew exactly what you wanted. There are some things I hope you can be more explicit about, instead of us being suspicious of each other. After all, we are still in a cooperative relationship, aren't we?”
