However, Shen Manbing was stopped by Shen Shichuan who grabbed her arm: “Shen Manbing, it’s my fault for spoiling you. If this continues, go back to the United States.”

With that, he forcefully let go of Shen Manbing’s arm.

Shen Manbing couldn’t believe it. Her beloved brother whom she had always obeyed since childhood and who had spoilt her beyond measure, suddenly seemed to be another person.

And all for the sake of an outsider, treating her this way.

Shen Manbing, infuriated and upset, left.

Throughout the whole ordeal, Xia Yangyang had witnessed a squabble between siblings, feeling like an onlooker, but in reality, she was one of the parties involved.

Shen Shichuan was also not mildly angered.

Xia Yangyang had never seen Shen Shichuan, a person generally as gentle as jade, with his forehead veins revealed in anger.

Yet, as he faced Xia Yangyang, Shen Shichuan regained his usual composure quite quickly: “I’m sorry, Yangyang, I’m apologizing on her behalf, I really have spoiled my sister.”

Xia Yangyang forced a smile: “It’s okay.”

During the meal, Shen Shichuan no longer mentioned the contract.

In the following month, Xia Yangyang was incredibly busy.

She attended various promotional activities, dinners with various investors, and took numerous interviews.

Even though she was exhausted every day, she was happy to spend time with her old acquaintances like Chen Yu and Lu Yao.

The only unpleasant thing was that in this circle, Xia Yangyang frequently encountered Shen Manbing.

With her lofty personality, Shen Manbing never looked down upon anyone.

Like an aloof, high and mighty queen.

But everyone was willing to flatter and pamify her, show subservience under her feet, happily calling her “Your Majesty.”

That night was a grand jewel auction dinner.

Only because the host was an investor in Cinderella, did Xia Yangyang and others made their presence to show support.

In addition, it attracted numerous famous ladies from Kyoto.

Because the grand finale today was a ruby necklace called “The Heart of the Kingdom”. The ruby weighed 40.63 carats and had 150 diamonds of various sizes, with a market value of about 14 million US dollars.

But, this gem was rumored to have already been privately pre-purchased by a mysterious tycoon and was not going to be auctioned.

It was to be showcased as the grand finale for everyone’s appreciation.

Nearly all top-tier wealthy individuals came upon hearing its reputation.

Xia Yangyang knew little about these jewels.

She thought these kind of dinners were always quite boring.

Given the chance, she would find a lounge to laze around and play on her phone.

There were two floors in the banquet hall. The bottom was a large banquet hall, filled with countless bulletproof glass showcases containing the premium jewels to be auctioned that night.

But not including the Heart of the Kingdom.

That extraordinarily precious necklace had a separate exhibition room designed for it, which would be opened for the last half hour.

Shen Manbing was present today as well.

As per usual, if Shen Manbing saw her, she would undoubtedly cause her some trouble.

Xia Yangyang didn’t want to provoke her so she chose to avoid.

So she went upstairs.

Xia Yangyang found a room at random, gave the door a light push and walked in.

The room was very empty, almost nothing at all, not even a chair to rest, except for the oddly positioned lights on the walls and ceiling.

Xia Yangyang didn’t think it looked like a rest room and decided to leave.

But unexpectedly, as she reached the door, she ran into Shen Manbing.

Shen Manbing wrinkled her eyebrows, and said with a look of contempt: “What are you doing in here, sneaking around?”
