Chapter 237 Competition
This man simply didn't treat Xia Li as his daughter.
He basically treated Xia Li as a tool for marriage alliance .
Chen Yimin said, "Xia Li, you have to trust me. The competition will be held the day after tomorrow, you can just come then."
Xia Li nodded. As long as the Xia family could turn things around, her father and mother would return to normal. The Xia family was not like this before. Her father was gentle and polite, and her mother was virtuous and elegant. She loved Xia Li very much.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have developed such an innocent character.
But ever since Zhang Xuzhi proposed to her and was rejected by Xia Li, the Zhang family started to attack the Xia family. First, the design drafts were stolen, and then the factory was harassed.
All kinds of things made Xia Tiandao more and more irritable. Xia Li saw it and finally agreed to Zhang Xuzhi's engagement.
Xia Tiandao was unusually irritable. When he heard that Xia Li was still going to the bidding competition, he had her locked up in the room.
Xia Tiandao said, "Don't even think about the bidding competition. It's impossible. Who is Chen Yimin? A bankrupt and downtrodden family, how can he be better than the Zhang family?"
Afterwards, he persuaded his wife, and Zhong Fangfang also felt that it was because Xia Li was with Chen Yimin and was not self-disciplined that she was beaten by Zhang Shao.
Zhong Fangfang also disagreed and she went to participate in the bidding competition.
Xia Li was locked into the bedroom by the servants. She immediately sat down at the desk, opened her notebook, and typed the words "bid" without hesitation.
Just then, the door was violently pushed open.
Zhong Fangfang was standing at the door with an angry face. She looked at her with a look of disappointment and said angrily, "What's so good about that kid surnamed Chen? Did he drug you with a drug to make you so desperate?"
But because of the Zhang family, many things are restricted for the Xia family. If their daughter doesn't get along well with Zhang Xuzhi, who knows what might happen.
Because of the company's affairs, her husband also changed from gentle and elegant to increasingly irritable, and she saw it all. The Zhang family's methods were so scary, if Xia Li really betrayed Zhang Xuzhi, she would definitely be retaliated.
Zhong Fangfang would never let her daughter jump into the fire pit.
Xia Li looked at the determination in her mother's eyes and couldn't help but beg, "Mom, I know Chen Yimin doesn't have much ability now. But...can't you give him a chance? Just one will do..."
Zhong Fangfang became even more furious when she heard this. When had her always proud daughter ever spoken to her like this?
Just because of one Eason Chan?
Zhong Fangfang rushed over, snatched her computer and threw it to the ground.
Then he slapped Xia Li in the face again, his eyes full of indifference and ridicule: "You are so stupid! Do you think that Chen Yimin is stupid? If you attend the bidding meeting tomorrow, do you know what will happen? You will be completely opposed to the Zhang family! By then, you and him will be grasshoppers tied to the same vine.
What's so good about Chen Yimin? He has no money and no power. Will you follow him to beg for food? There is no such thing as love and water in this world. What Chen Yimin covets is only our Xia family! If you were not the eldest daughter of the Xia family, would he still care about you? "
Zhong Fangfang's words hit her heart hard. Xia Li burst into tears. Zhong Fangfang left without even looking at her daughter sitting on the ground.
Her mother's words were like a heavy blow to her heart. Xia Li slowly stood up and took out a spare computer from the bottom of the drawer. In the darkness, only those cold eyes were staring at the screen.
Chen Yimin has never been that kind of person. He is not with me just for the Xia family. At the beginning, Chen Yimin didn't even know his identity.
Later, she told him her identity, but Chen Yimin still rejected her. How could it be possible now?
It seems that what happened today caused my mother to misunderstand.
Then she must participate in this bidding competition to prove that Chen Yimin is right and he will not harm her.
She must go to the bidding competition the day after tomorrow!
Today's bidding competition is unprecedented. Many companies have come to participate in this tournament. Even two of the four major families have come, the Zhang family and the Zheng family.
The prospects of this project are visible to the naked eye, and those with brains will come naturally.
Liu Qingye looked at this heated scene with an amusement on her face. These people were just here to join in the fun.
The only family that can truly obtain the investment rights is the Xia family.
Chen Yimin sat in the private room and saw everyone's appearance clearly. They were all talking and laughing in a hypocritical manner, which was really disgusting.
Chen Yimin was playing with the teacup in his hand, leaning back in his chair . The meeting was about to start in half an hour.
He was waiting, waiting for Xia Li to come and participate in the bidding competition.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the hall fell silent.
Ten minutes passed, and the bidding had not started yet. Someone in the audience could no longer stand it and stood up to question loudly: "Didn't we say it would start at 10 o'clock? It's already been 10 minutes, why hasn't the bidding started yet? Are you kidding us?"
For everyone here, time is precious.
Liu Qingye looked at Chen Yimin, who waved his hand and said, "Let's get started. Let them come up on stage one by one and introduce their ideas for this project."
"good."
Liu Qingye nodded, and unknowingly, she actually made Chen Yimin the center.
If Xia Li didn't come, the auction would have failed. This was just a formality.
Liu Qingye knew this, but she still had to save face and give them an explanation.
The auction has finally begun.
The first people to come on stage were from the Zhang family. After they came on stage, the other small families that had obtained the qualifications did not dare to come on stage anymore.
The emcee read out several company names in succession, and no one in the audience wanted to go on stage. There were two or three brave people who only said a few words briefly, and it was obvious that they had no intention of getting the project.
Chen Yimin sneered. They were truly worthy of being the four major families. Under their coercion, no one dared to compete with them.
On the field, the Zheng family, one of the four major families, all came on stage to speak, and finally there was only one family left.
"Next, please invite Xia Li, Xia Jia, to the stage."
There was silence below, and Zhang Xuzhi looked at the stage.
Xia Li is coming too, why didn't he hear any news? This woman simply doesn't take him seriously. Just wait and see how he'll deal with her when he gets back!
"Xia Li..."
"I'm here!" Xia Li panted, standing at the door with her right hand raised.
She calmed down, quickly straightened her clothes, and walked towards the stage with a smile on her face.
Fortunately, everything is done in time.
Xia Li looked determined as she added in what Chen Yimin had said to her and her own ideas, then told everything with a smile on her face.
Because someone from one of the four major families interfered, the bidding competition ended in just an hour and no one went on stage again.
