  At this moment, a maid went to open the door.

  Mu Lan leaned back against the sofa and waited for the maid to come over. She quickly asked, “Who rang the doorbell? ”


  The maid said, “Madam, they were from the property management office.”


  Mu Lan heaved a sigh of relief.

  Immediately after, her phone rang again.

  Mu Lan’s heart, which had just calmed down, started beating frantically again.

  She looked at the screen of her phone that lit up and saw the name of the auctioneer. As the phone vibrated, her heart began to tremble.

  If she did not pick up the phone, she was afraid that the other party would come looking for her or sue her directly.

  After hesitating for a while, she reached out her trembling hand to pick up the phone.

  “Why aren’t you here yet? The auction is already more than half-way through. Your villa is the grand finale. Many rich people are interested in it.”


  When Mu Lan heard this, her heart bled. That was all money.

  However, she could only say, “I’m not selling the villa.”


  “Not selling? What are you up to? You’re going to have to pay for the breach of contract, as well as for the shock I received and also the service fee. ”


  The sure deal had slipped through his fingers. The auctioneer was furious.

  The compensation for the breach of contract had already caused Mu Lan’s heart to bleed. She was also angry at having to pay the additional compensation.

  “Are you robbing me? Compensation for shock and a service fee? Do you think the Qin family is a pushover?”


  “If that’s the case, I’ll see you in court, Mrs. Qin.”


  Hearing the word ‘court’, Mu Lan was so scared that her heart skipped a beat. Before she could speak, the other party had already hung up the phone.

  When she dialed back again, the call could no longer be connected.

  She could not go to court, but she could not afford to pay for the auctioneer’s mental distress, his service fee, plus the penalty for breach of contract.

  Mu Lan stared into space dazedly.

  She sat on the sofa and thought for a while. Then, she looked at the study. She remembered that Qin Hai had mentioned that he had a very valuable antique. It would be of great use if they kept it.

  If she auctioned the antique, it should be able to sell for a lot of money.

  Mu Lan was forced into a corner. She did not care about Qin Hai’s anger when he found out. She quickly went to the study on the second floor.

  After searching for a while, she found the antique. She opened the box and took a look. There was an appraisal document inside.

  She did not even have the time to look at it carefully before she packed it and went to the auction house.

  When the person in charge of the auction saw that Mu Lan had come with an antique, he knew that she was afraid.

  That was why he took a look at the appraisal document when Mu Lan showed him the antique.

  “Auction this antique and I’ll split some of the proceeds with you.” Mu Lan said hurriedly.

  The person in charge of the auction opened the box and saw the antique inside. He knew that the antique was worth a lot with just a glance.

  “But I’ll have to double the handling fee and the labor fee. I was scolded by my boss because of you. It’ll be calculated together with the compensation for my mental distress.” The person in charge of the auction would definitely not let go of such a good item.

  When Mu Lan heard this, she knew that he was trying to raise the price. However, she was afraid that if she refused again, the other party would just sue her in court.

  Then she would be too embarrassed to stand in front of those other wealthy women.

  She gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t you dare to go too far. I will compensate however much I have to once this is sold for a good price.”


  “Then sign the contract first. There will be another auction tomorrow.” The auctioneer was afraid that Mu Lan would go back on her word, so he drew up the contract there and then and asked her to sign it.

  Mu Lan carefully read the contract before signing it.

  Qin Hai hurried back from the office and went straight up to the study on the second floor.

  He opened the door of the study, went to where the antique was kept and opened the cabinet door. However, he found that the cabinet was empty.

  Qin Hai blanched. He had intended to give the antique to someone to get something done. Where did it go?

  He had still seen it in the cabinet the night before.
