Chapter 85: Chapter 85 Threat

"Qin Yi, how did you get to know Miss Lan?" Xia Yanbing asked curiously.

"He’s a guinea pig. Miss Lan is breaking through a medical barrier and needs his leg for research," Lin Hongzhuang quickly replied.

Xia Yanbing said, "Did Miss Lan say there’s hope for your leg to be healed?"

Qin Yi said, "Miss Lan said the chances are very small, but she will try her best."

"Really, brother, that’s great," Qin Wan’er said happily.

With a face full of malicious coldness, Dong Jinsu said, "The chances are small, and whether it can be cured is still uncertain. What are you so happy about?"

Qin Yi’s eyes darkened slightly.

"Having hope is better than having no hope," Xia Yanbing glanced at Dong Jinsu and said.

Then Xia Yanbing looked at Qin Yi and said, "After I’m done being busy these days, help me arrange a meeting with Miss Lan. I want to thank her in person."

Qin Yi nodded slightly. The only ones who truly cared about him in this family were probably Xia Yanbing and his sister.

"You guys eat, I’m going upstairs first."

"Bingbing, why are you eating so little?" Lin Hongzhuang asked.

"I’m full. Tomorrow is the auction day, I need to get ready."

Qin Yi was slightly stunned. Is that plot of land being auctioned tomorrow? The time has been moved up.

"Bingbing, can I go with you tomorrow?"

"Of course!" Xia Yanbing smiled.

After dinner, Qin Yi went to Qin Wan’er’s room to chat with her for a while. This girl has been very busy lately, with both school and piano lessons. But it’s clear she enjoys it.

"Brother, when will you go to Brother Dong’s house? Xiao Rui mentions you every day. It’s strange. You’ve only met once, and she’s closer to you than to me."

"Sure, I’ll go in a couple of days."

The next day, when Qin Yi came out, there was no one left at home.

Lin Hongzhuang should have gone with Xia Yanbing to the auction.

The old witch Dong Jinsu wasn’t there either.

Qin Yi thought for a moment, then called Liu Zhanyuan to inquire about the situation.

"Mr. Qin, don’t worry. I’m already on site, and I promise to help President Xia get that plot of land."

Qin Yi gave a few instructions before hanging up the phone, then started studying the Gu insect given to him by Lan Jiaojiao while the house was empty.

...

Near noon, Qin Yi received a call from Liu Zhanyuan.

"How did it go, did Xiaobing get the land smoothly?" Qin Yi asked casually while fiddling with the Gu insect in the box.

"Mr. Qin, I’m sorry!"

"Hmm?" Qin Yi frowned slightly, "What happened?"

"Lot 11 suddenly withdrew from the auction."

"What’s going on?" Qin Yi frowned.

"Lot 11 was originally Jinsheng Real Estate’s property, with a low price of one billion. But Fu Kangyong bought it for one and a half billion before the auction. Mr. Qin, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault."

"Is Fu Kangyong the father of Fu Bomming?"

"Yes."

"This is not related to you. That Fu Kangyong does have some tricks. Looks like he’s willing to go to great lengths to save his son."

Liu Zhanyuan suddenly said nervously, "Mr. Qin, Fu Kangyong’s people have taken President Xia and Miss Lin away. Should I stop them?"

"When did that happen? Where did they go?"

"They went upstairs, the upstairs is a VIP room."

Qin Yi squinted slightly, "Ensure Xiaobing and Lin Hongzhuang’s safety at all costs, and find a way to record their conversation for me."

"Okay, I’ll go handle it. Mr. Qin, do you have any other instructions?"

"You take care of that first, call me anytime."

Qin Yi hung up the call, his mind spinning rapidly.

...

Jiahe Auction House, VIP Room.

Xia Yanbing looked indifferent, staring calmly at the short, chubby, sparse-haired Fu Kangyong across from her.

"Chairman Fu, speak your mind. If it’s about Fu Bomming, spare me the talk." Xia Yanbing didn’t have time to argue with Fu Kangyong.

Lot 11’s sudden withdrawal from the auction disrupted all her plans.

These days, all her efforts were centered around Lot 11, and she still didn’t know why Lot 11 was suddenly withdrawn from the auction. She had to investigate, Lot 11 was crucial to her plans.

As Fu Kangyong was about to speak, a waiter suddenly brought in some tea.

After the waiter left, Fu Kangyong resumed speaking, looking at Lin Hongzhuang, "Miss Lin, please allow me to apologize on behalf of my unworthy son."

"If apologies worked, what would the police be for? I don’t accept any apologies, I only want that scum to face legal consequences," Lin Hongzhuang said angrily, her pretty face filled with fury.

Xia Yanbing stood up and said, "Chairman Fu, I came to see you out of courtesy. As I said earlier, let’s not talk about your son’s matter. Goodbye!"

Xia Yanbing pulled Lin Hongzhuang towards the door.

"President Xia doesn’t want Lot 11 anymore?" Fu Kangyong said mockingly.

Xia Yanbing paused, turning sharply. This wasn’t a secret, but not many people knew about it.

"How do you know about Lot 11?"

Fu Kangyong took out a document, smiling, "How I know is unrelated to President Xia. This is Lot 11. I think President Xia might be interested in hearing me out now, right?"

Xia Yanbing said coldly, "If you intend to use this plot to threaten me, you’re making a mistake. I do need this plot, but I won’t be threatened for it."

"President Xia, don’t misunderstand. It’s not a threat, just stating the facts. President Xia, please sit down. I’ll only take a few minutes of your time, listen to me, then you can leave if you wish."

"No need." Xia Yanbing turned to leave.

"President Xia, Miss Lin, don’t you care about your company and family?" Fu Kangyong’s face darkened.

"What do you want?" Lin Hongzhuang said angrily.

Fu Kangyong sneered, "Honestly, the reason you stand before me is because of the Xia Group and Lin Group behind you."

"But to be honest, these two small companies really don’t matter to me. If I wanted, I could easily destroy both of them."

"Then what would you be? With a wave of my hand, you and your families would be in dire straits."

Fu Kangyong shifted his posture, crossing his legs, sneering, "Let me tell you a story. Once there was a girl with some influence, just like you, who accused my son. Despite my pleas, she wouldn’t relent. Can you guess what happened to her?"

"I bet you can’t guess, so I’ll tell you. The girl went insane, reportedly assaulted by a dozen thugs. Her parents died in a terrible car accident. Oh, and her brother vanished mysteriously. Some say he was seen in a black coal mine, others say he was begging in another city, but unfortunately, missing his limbs."

"President Xia, Miss Lin, you don’t want such misfortune to befall you, do you?"

Fu Kangyong’s eyes were evil, his face twisted with a sinister smile.
