"One hundred and ten million!"

The auction had reached this point, and Qu Yuancheng was genuinely fired up. It was inevitable that he was feeling a bit riled, seemingly planning to stand his ground against Yamamoto.

Since he was already prepared to pay a substantial amount, an extra ten or twenty million didn't mean much to Qu Yuancheng, so he wouldn't give up easily.

"One hundred and fifteen million!"

But Yamamoto was obviously just as determined, although his real motives might seem the same as Qu Yuancheng's, they were actually different.

He had no reason to give up, so he continued to bid aggressively. The money didn't come from the Yamaguchi Group Hong Kong Branch's account, hence Yamamoto was quite willing to spend it.

But the more it went on like this, the more furious Qu Yuancheng became, with resentment growing stronger in his heart.

"One hundred and twen..."

Just as Qu Yuancheng almost wanted to place a new bid, planning to thoroughly suppress Yamamoto, Qin Fang suddenly tugged at his sleeve and murmured softly.

"Big brother, let him have it..."

Qin Fang's suggestion for Qu Yuancheng to withdraw from the bidding truly caught a few people around them off guard.

"Let him have it?"

Qu Yuancheng was taken aback, looking at Qin Fang somewhat puzzled, as if waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation. After all, at this point, it was no longer just about the auction; it felt more like a display of wealth between two people. Whoever backed down would lose face seriously.

"Just trust me and give up!"

Qin Fang shook his head without explaining much, but spoke with absolute certainty.

"Alright..."

Qu Yuancheng paused for a moment, then helplessly nodded, gesturing to the auctioneer that he was withdrawing...

Finally, the Blue and White Porcelain sold for a high price of 115 million. Over there, seeing that Qu Yuancheng had stepped back, Yamamoto also visibly relaxed.

A person like Yamamoto was nothing more than scum!

After struggling to win, it was only because of Qin Fang's advice that Qu Yuancheng reluctantly gave up; otherwise, he would have insisted till the end.

Yamamoto had no sense of gratitude; instead, he threw a provocative glance in Qin Fang's and others' direction, his arrogant posture almost like a proud swan, which was quite ironic paired with Yamamoto's short stature...

"That bastard..."

But his demeanor indeed sparked an already slightly frustrated Qu Yuancheng's anger, making even a gentlemanly lawyer like him feel the urge to rush over and beat Yamamoto up.

"No need to stoop to his level..."

However, Qin Fang, standing beside, held Qu Yuancheng back, not giving him the chance.

Seeing that his purpose had been achieved, and completing his mission for this trip, Yamamoto didn't seem to plan on waiting for the next items any longer. He left with a group to pay and collect his goods.

It's clear how much he valued that puzzle box... even though others believed what was essential was the Blue and White Porcelain inside...

Not only acquiring these two treasures at a high price, but for the sake of safety, Qin Fang noticed that besides the elder looking like an appraiser, Yamamoto brought four bodyguards into the venue this time.

Now that he was leaving to pay for his goods, all those bodyguards followed him, leaving that area empty.

The more Qin Fang noticed Yamamoto's impatience, the more tightly his brow furrowed, not even paying attention to the next item on auction.

Yamamoto's actions were quick; he paid, collected his goods swiftly, and immediately, under the protection of a few people, left for the outside of the auction house.

Looking at his posture, it seemed he didn't even want to linger for a moment more, revealing how important that puzzle box was to him at the moment...

Just as leaving the auction venue, Yamamoto looked over arrogantly in Qin Fang's direction, saw that Qin Fang was watching him, proudly jerked his head, and strode away in high spirits.

"You guys continue, don't wait for me..."

Seeing Yamamoto and the others leave, Qin Fang found no reason to stay either. However, without saying much, he left the auction house quickly after a simple explanation.

Everyone exchanged confused glances, not understanding what Qin Fang intended to do. Only Tang Feifei vaguely guessed something, though a bit worried, didn't express it since she had absolute confidence in Qin Fang.

Ignoring what the others were thinking, Qin Fang quickly exited the venue, heading outside, seemingly intending to chase after Yamamoto.

In fact, that was indeed his plan, to chase after Yamamoto.

"Can't buy it, but can't I just steal it?"

Watching the figures disappearing into the distance, Qin Fang smiled faintly, spoke sarcastically.

Black on black!

This was definitely the type of task the gang members loved the most!

Not long ago, Qin Fang had even assisted Elder Long in completing a similar operation of black-on-black.

The Yamaguchi Group, being the biggest organization in Asia, hadn't done this just once or twice; usually, they were the ones overpowering others.

The reason for not turning on the Yamaguchi Group was mainly due to their immense power, instilling fear. The larger organizations were extremely wary of the Yamaguchi Group.

In contrast, a passerby like Qin Fang wasn't too concerned about them. Even if the black-on-black was successful, the Yamaguchi Group couldn't do much against them...

Yamamoto seemed particularly intent on that puzzle box, it seemed he wouldn't spare any cost to acquire it, especially against someone like Qu Yuancheng, who belonged to a prestigious family, he showed no signs of backing down.

Qin Fang saw through this, pondered a bit, then advised Qu Yuancheng to give up the bidding since continuing would only inflate the auction price to an unreasonably high level.

Instead, it was better to directly let Yamamoto win, forcing him to spend over a hundred million, then intercept mid-way to seize the still warm puzzle box. This would leave Yamamoto with nothing.

Yamamoto moved quickly, almost immediately after stepping out, he got into a car and left, as if the longer he lingered the more danger he faced.

The danger was indeed there, like Qin Fang... or some wealthy individuals also coveting the Blue and White Porcelain!

But a real move in the auction house was out of the question, definitely choosing a more secluded place to make a move.

Watching the vehicles drive off into the distance, Qin Fang boarded a taxi, chasing after Yamamoto and his group.

Although slightly lagging, Qin Fang wasn't in a rush. Instead, he seemed relaxed, resting as if gearing up for a big fight ahead.

Qin Fang wasn't worried about losing Yamamoto. He had already gathered intel on the Yamaguchi Group from Elder Long while planning to deal with Tu San. It turned out useful sooner than expected.

Looking at the road Yamamoto's car was on, combined with some intel Qin Fang had, he guessed Yamamoto's destination.

Knowing the destination meant he wasn't worried about losing Yamamoto, he could even find the place himself.

"Think you can run? Not that easy..."

Knowing the location, gazing at the car in front, Qin Fang appeared quite at ease; the one truly needing to worry should be Yamamoto. (To be continued.
