After Liu Mingxin left, Hong Dali touched his chin and looked at Tang Muxin who was sitting beside him. "Xinxin, this guy asked me to join that something auction, what do you think of it? It's unlikely that he really wants to compete with me to see who can squander more, can it?" Speaking of which, whenever Tang Muxin was with him, Hong Dali especially likely to ask her "what do you think." It felt really interesting every time he said it.

"I have to say, even though we're not on the same side, I can't bring myself to dislike him." Tang Muxin frowned her cute little nose. "This old guy is very handsome looking and graceful. Even though I know we're enemies, it's still hard to be angry at him—but he is definitely plotting something this time, I'm sure of it. As for why he especially came here to invite you to the auction, and his reason for it, I still have to ponder on it."

"En." Hong Dali muttered. "He actively invited me to the auction, could it be that he just wants to see me squander?"

"Squander?" Tang Muxin repeated it two more times, and her eyes suddenly lit-up. "Dali, this time, you definitely have to squander!"

"Huh?" Hong Dali curiously asked, "Why are you supporting me this time? Don't you hate seeing me squander?"

"Am I such a person that doesn't know how to set her priorities?" Tang Muxin pouted and humphed. "Last time was last time, now is now. The situation is special now, we can't view problems the same way as we did in the past. Think about it, his evil plot didn't succeed today, and he also failed to win Sister Nianwei's heart. If you put yourself in his shoes, what would you think of?"

"If it were me?" Hong Dali slowly said, "I would definitely find out the reason for why I failed. En, this fellow failed, then he will think that it's because I saw through his plans. But I don't think he will believe that this is the reason. After all, everyone seems to equate prodigals being the same as fools. But I believe he still suspects me. Therefore, this auction is a chance for him to test my personality and character. Whether I'm a real prodigal, who will squander on impulse or an old demon in disguise."

Tang Muxin grinned. "Hee hee, if you're an old demon, doesn't that make me an old demoness?"

After saying this, her face went red, her finger pressed upon her lips, and she immediately changed the subject. "However, my view on this matter is the same as yours. This time, the best solution is to squander as much as you can. This way, he will lose interest in challenging you. People like him who seeks perfection will not be interested in weak opponents."

"Is that a personal attack on me?" Hong Dali pouted and said, "You want me to act foolish and weak in front of him?"

"Not just in front of him." Tang Muxin placed her mouth beside Hong Dali's ear and softly said, "This also includes those family members of yours. After all, the more you squander and make a show of doing nothing useful, the less they will pay attention to you. You will be much safer then."

"Fine." Hong Dali sucked in a deep breath. "Then, this time I shall listen to you—brouhaha! Finally, I can splurge as much as I want. Come, let's squander to my heart's content!"

An auction! No matter how much I try to save, I will at least need to spend a few million yuan, isn't it?

After that, let's see how big my little stick can become!

...

After sending Tang Muxin home, Hong Dali returned home and slept.

After Hong Dali went back to his room, the driver came to the study room on the first floor and lightly knocked on the door. Very quickly, a deep low voice sounded from inside. "Come in, the door isn't locked."
