“I’ll go personally. Wait here.” After saying that, Old Mr. Zhang walked backstage with heavy steps.

The auctioneer turned around to look at all the distinguished guests in front of him and said, “All the items available today have been auctioned off. Thank you for coming to our auction house in Sky City. See you next time.”

Backstage, Gao Lin proceeded with the procedures for taking back the items. Qiao Mei took out a check and quickly wrote it out for 250,000 dollars, worried that Gao Lin would go back on his word and refused to sell her the jewelry.

“Gao Lin, we’ve known each other for most of our lives. Why are you doing this?” Old Mr. Zhang said as he looked at Gao Lin sadly.

“Zhang Cheng, don’t you feel ashamed saying such things? Even if you don’t find it embarrassing, I do!” Gao Lin said angrily.

How could Gao Lin not be able to remember the friendship they used to have? It was precisely because he valued this relationship too much that Zhang Cheng was able to hurt him so deeply.

In the past, Gao Lin and Zhang Cheng were the same kind of rich young masters who spent money freely. Gao Lin used to be even more of a spendthrift than Zhang Cheng. The Gao family was extremely well-to-do in the past. If not for the fact that Gao Lin’s elder sister passed away suddenly, his parents would not have decided to move to another country. They did not want to see anything which reminded them of his elder sister.

However, after coming to Country M, their family did not do as well as before. It felt as if they faced great obstacles in everything they did. It had now even gotten to a point when he could not even afford his grandson’s medical expenses!

Gao Ming had previously told Gao Lin that the Gao family’s spate of bad luck was very likely related to Zhang Cheng, but Gao Lin did not believe Gao Ming. He even felt that those were only the words of an insensible child and could not be taken seriously.

It was not until something happened to Gao Ming that Gao Lin came to his senses and found out about the kind of terrible things Zhang Cheng had done to get his hand on the jewelry belonging to Gao Lin’s elder sister.

“Your top priority now is Gao Mings medical fees. I’ll give you 300,000 dollars if you give me those jewelry,” Zhang Cheng said.

“Get lost! Stop being so hypocritical here! If you really want to help me and save Gao Ming, you will nave helped us long ago! why are you putting on an act here? I feel disgusted whenever I see you!” Gao Lin said in disdain.

Zhang Cheng looked at Gao Lin dejectedly. He had indeed been too careless in this matter. In fact, on the day when Gao Ming was hospitalized, Gao Lin had gone to borrow money from Zhang Cheng, but Zhang Cheng did not agree because he still had his eye on the jewelry. He had been plotting to get these jewelry for most of his life and it had not been easy for him to get rid of these people from the Gao family one by one. At this moment, he was just one step away. He could not tolerate it!

Given his social status, he felt that it was beneath him to request Gao Lin to use the jewelry as collateral to borrow money from him. Therefore, he took a risk and decided to force Gao Lin into a corner so that Gao Lin would eventually sell all his assets. This way, he could get a hold of the jewelry quietly.

No matter how he did it, Gao Lin would eventually find out about the kind of person he was. In that case, he did not want to pretend anymore.

“Young lady, these jewelry are yours now.” Gao Lin stuffed the tray into Qiao Mei’s arms.

Qiao Mei hurriedly opened her bag and poured all the jewelry inside, worried that something adverse might happen. At this moment, Xia He and Da Dong and the rest had also come backstage. Now that Qiao Mei had her own people around, she was no longer afraid of Zhang Cheng.

“Grandpa Gao, keep this money well.” Qiao Mei handed the check to Gao Lin. After confirming that the check was real, Gao Lin proceeded to leave the backstage area. However, he stopped when he reached the door.

Given Zhang Chengs modus operandi, he would definitely make things difficult for Qiao Mei. The Gao family was already plagued by bad luck and he did not want to let Zhang Cheng hurt anyone else.

“Young lady, why don’t you come with me!” Gao Lin yelled out at Qiao Mei and the others.

Qiao Mei had the same intention. The group of them quickly followed Gao Lin all the way to the auction house’s car park. Gao Lin turned around and sized Qiao Mei up carefully, his eyes filling up with tears.

“Grandpa Gao, what’s wrong?” Qiao Mei probed.

Gao Lin quickly wiped his eyes with his sleeve and said, “I’m fine! I just think that you look like someone 1 know. May I ask what you plan to do with my jewelry?”

“l like these jewelry very much. I intend to keep them as my family heirloom and pass them down for generations,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Gao Lin nodded in satisfaction. She said they would be her family heirloom.

The fact was that these jewelry were really the Gao family’s heirloom. As Gao Lin’s elder sister was the eldest daughter, his mother had given this set of jewelry to her. Now that this set of jewelry was handed over to someone who looked like his elder sister, he had no regrets..
