Found 100 Million In My Rented Apartment

Ye Feng saw that the driver was denying it, and he snorted coldly. “Are you playing dumb with me? I know someone is behind you. Tell me and I can let you go.”

When the driver heard what he said, he could not be bothered to quibble anymore. A sneer appeared on his face. “1… I’m going to die… What else can you do to me…”

As he spoke, he spat out a large mouthful of blood, and his face became paler.

Ye Feng immediately laughed. “Do you really think that I can’t do anything to you just because you are about to die? There’s something more terrifying than death in this world, and that’s living a life worse than death.”

At this point, he suddenly reached out to the driver’s chest.

A few of his ribs had been broken, and two of them had pierced into his heart. He was hopeless.

The driver had a look of disdain on his face. He was already prepared to die today. What could threaten him?

But soon, he realized how childish his idea was.

An indescribable pain suddenly swept over him, causing his entire body to spasm.

Ye Feng pinched his broken ribs. He still had a smile on his face. “Death or living a life worse than death, which one do you choose?”

The driver stared at him and realized that the young man in front of him was more terrifying than a demon.

“I…I’ll speak…”

The driver had wanted to persevere for a while. Perhaps he would be able to survive for the rest of his life.

But he realized that he was being childish.

Because he realized that in this final stage of his life, he was living slower than he would in his entire life.

He really couldn’t take it anymore and finally relented.

Only then did Ye Feng let go of his ribs. He had a harmless smile on his face. “Wouldn’t it have been better if we cooperated earlier? Must you test my methods?”

The driver looked at him with fear in his eyes.

Although his body was still in extreme pain, compared to that moment just now, it was as if he had returned to heaven.

“Tell me, who sent you here?” Ye Fengs tone became much gentler.

“Yes… Miki-san…” the driver said slowly.

“Miki-san? What’s his full name?” Ye Feng was unfamiliar with this name, and he immediately asked.

“Called… It’s called Miki Chaoyang…” the driver answered honestly.

“Miki Chaoyang?”

When Lin Qianqian heard this name, she immediately cried out in surprise. Clearly, she had heard of it.

Ye Feng did not ask her immediately, but continued to ask the driver, “Why did he want to kill me?”

The driver’s face was already red and he could not hold on any longer. “He…

He said… Let me… stop you… going to Sa…”

Before he could finish, his head tilted and he stopped breathing.

But Ye Feng had already understood. He wanted to stop him from going to the Sakikawa Auction House.

Thinking of this, he turned to look at Lin Qianqian. “You know this Miki Chaoyang?”

Lin Qianqian immediately nodded. “Miki Chaoyang is the top antique dealer in Japan. He can be said to have dominated half of the antique market in Japan. Oh, right, I heard that he’s going to participate in the auction this time.” Ye Feng heard her explanation and immediately understood.

He had heard from Matsuyama Shoji that the most precious items in this auction had already been decided by a big shot.

This big shot must be Miki-san, right?

From this, he could understand why he would use such an extreme method to stop him from going to the auction.

It seemed that Miki-san, whom he had never met before, regarded him as his number one rival.

“Let’s go.” He thought through all this and immediately called out to Lin Qianqian.

Lin Qianqian glanced at the driver again and hurriedly followed him.

Due to the delay from the car accident, by the time the two of them arrived at the auction house, everyone else had already entered.

The two of them verified their passes at the door and then hurried into the venue.

The venue was huge enough to accommodate a thousand people.

However, there were only 60 to 70 people seated at the moment. It was obvious that the entrance threshold had been raised at the last minute yesterday, blocking most of the people outside.

Those who could enter today were all extremely powerful large organizations.

At this moment, the owner of the Sakikawa Auction House, Sakikawa Taro, was explaining the rules of the auction to everyone on stage.

When he noticed Ye Feng entering, he only smiled and nodded, but he did not stop explaining.

Ye Feng could tell from his expression that this person did not know about the car accident. Otherwise, he would not have escaped his eyes.

“Our auction this time around is different from the past. We do not use a method of taking turns to bid. Instead, we have chosen a blind auction…” Sakikawa Taro continued to explain.

When the audience heard the words ‘blind auction’, they immediately began to discuss. It was obvious that they had some doubts about the rules of this auction.

As if he didn’t see everyone’s expression, Sakikawa Taro continued to explain, “To put it simply, we will display all the items in one go and give everyone an hour to browse. When the time is up, everyone will write down their bids on the bidding list. The person with the highest bid will obtain the ownership of

the item…”

When the crowd below the stage heard this, someone finally could not help but raise his hand.

“Mr. Sakikawa, isn’t an hour a little too little?”

“Yeah, 1 heard that there are hundreds of items on auction this time. One hour is not enough.”

“l suggest that we increase the browsing time to three hours so that we have enough time to browse and discuss.”

“Yes, yes, yes. One hour is definitely not enough…”

Ye Feng, who was also sitting below the stage, could not help but laugh. They set this rule so that they would not have time to study it carefully.

You still want to make them wait longer? Was this a joke?

As expected, Sakikawa Taro’s expression did not change even after hearing everyone’s complaints. “I’m sorry, but the rules of this auction were decided by the higher-ups of the auction collectively and were approved by Mr. Qiandao personally. It’s impossible to make any last-minute changes.”

When everyone heard his reply, their protests grew louder and louder.

“l object to this. Since you have chosen to auction it publicly, you should respect our opinions.”

“That’s right. These collections are all priceless treasures. Each of them requires a lot of time to study carefully. How can we make a hasty decision?”

“l hope that Mr. Sakikawa will convey our opinion to the auction’s higher-ups.

Otherwise, we can only boycott this auction.”

“I’ve participated in at least 800 auctions, if not 1,000. I’ve never seen such a strange rule. It must be changed…”

Sakikawa Taro listened quietly to everyone’s protests. Suddenly, his expression darkened. “No matter what the rules of other auctions are, this is the Sakikawa Auction House. Here, you have to abide by my rules. If anyone feels that our rules are too harsh, then please leave voluntarily. I won’t ask you to stay.”

Seeing his unyielding attitude, everyone could not help but look at each other.

The auction house was open for business. Logically speaking, they should be polite to the guests who came to participate in the auction. After all, those who could participate in such a high-level auction were all very wealthy. It was not a wise move to offend so many guests.

However, this Sakikawa-san’s attitude was really not flattering, and some people almost stood up to leave.

However, when they thought of the fine items in the auction, they finally chose to swallow their anger.

At most, they would just attend this event and never come again.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Sakikawa Taro smiled again• .. “Since no one has any objections, the auction will begin now!”
