This was Luo Xi's first time attending such an occasion. She was full of curiosity and kept looking around with her big eyes. Ling Yuan had been paying attention to her. Looking at her appearance, the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose slightly, and he raised a doting smile, which was full of indulgence for Luo Xi.

In order to get the auction off to a good start, the organizers really put in a lot of effort, and the first item they took out was of great significance - a pair of antique men's cufflinks.

As soon as the cufflinks appeared, they stunned everyone, especially Rosie.

This pair of cufflinks was exactly the one she had just seen in the auction brochure.

The gorgeous rubies inlaid on the cufflinks sparkled under the light, emitting a charming luster.

Luo Qian couldn't help but secretly imagine how Ling Yuan would look when he wore them. The bright red color matched Ling Yuan's deep and charming eyes, which must be a perfect match. The more she thought about it, the more excited she felt.

She must take off this pair of cufflinks and give them to Lingyuan.

As the auctioneer's hammer fell heavily, the crisp sound echoed throughout the venue, instantly igniting the enthusiastic atmosphere and officially kicking off the auction. The starting price for this eye-catching pair of cufflinks was set at 100 million.

As soon as the auction started, Liu Meilan didn't wait for anyone else to react and directly raised the price to 200 million. She sat upright in her seat, raised her chin slightly, and her eyes revealed an unquestionable certainty, as if the pair of cufflinks was already in her pocket.

This was Luo Xi's first time in such an occasion, so she was inevitably infected by the atmosphere and felt a little excited. However, she had no idea about the rules of the auction and was somewhat lacking in confidence.

Ling Yuan saw her hesitation and leaned over to whisper in her ear: "Don't be nervous, I'm here, just let go and have fun."

Just this one sentence made Luo Xi feel confident. She imitated the movements she had seen before and raised the number plate in her hand.

The auctioneer, who had been closely watching the action on the floor, immediately caught sight of Rosie raising her paddle and followed up with a clear and resounding voice, saying, "This beautiful lady bids 201 million."

However, almost at the same time, a burst of sneers came from Liu Meilan's side. The laughter was particularly harsh in the originally quiet and tense auction scene.

This behavior of openly sneering at others in such a formal occasion is undoubtedly extremely rude. Even the experienced auctioneer couldn't help but frown slightly.

Then, Liu Meilan spoke again and said loudly: "500 million!"

There was a sense of superiority in her voice, as if she wanted to use this sudden high price to completely suppress Luo Xi and make her back off.

However, Rosie didn't get it at all.

Just like Ling Yuan said, she came here just to have fun.

She is now free and unattached on Blue Star, and no matter what she experiences here, she actually feels like an outsider.

But Ling Yuan couldn't tolerate it at all. He couldn't bear to see a little female being wronged, so no one else was qualified.

The smile on his face instantly disappeared, and he opened his thin lips and uttered two words that were enough to shock the entire audience.

"1 million."

The sound was not loud, but it was earth-shattering, causing an uproar in the entire audience. Everyone was shocked by this astronomical figure and started whispering to each other.

When Liu Meilan and Paul heard the price, they didn't dare to raise the price any further.

If you spend 1 million on cufflinks like this, you can buy ten of them.

The auctioneer also knew that there was no possibility of raising the price any further, so he quickly struck the hammer.

Luo Qian came close to Ling Yuan and whispered, "Did I make a bad purchase? Such a high price..."

Ling Yuan leaned close to her ear and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "No one here knows us. If we don't shock them the first time we strike, we'll probably have to pay a higher price if we encounter something we like later."

Luo Qian suddenly understood what was going on and secretly admired Ling Yuan for being the top profiteer in the galaxy, who could manipulate people's hearts with ease.

The auction is still proceeding in an orderly manner.

The second lot was presented to everyone. It was an antique jade necklace. The jade beads on the necklace were round and full, exuding a warm luster, but Rosie just glanced at it casually and was not very interested.

Natural jade is considered a precious gem in the interstellar space. She has a whole shelf of jade necklaces that are a hundred times more gorgeous and exaggerated than this one.

There's nothing I can do about it. It's because Kyle, that straight guy, always chooses expensive gifts.

Liu Meilan didn't know that she was not interested in the necklace. She was still upset about the loss of the cufflinks auction. She sat there motionless and had no intention of bidding.

The other customers, still brooding over Ling Yuan's astonishing 100 million RMB bid for the cufflinks, were now cautious. They would occasionally glance at Ling Yuan, and seeing that he was genuinely unimpressed by the jade necklace, they finally mustered up the courage to hesitantly raise their number plates and begin bidding.

Rosie saw this scene and couldn't help but smile.

I thought to myself that what Ling Yuan said earlier was absolutely right.

The second lot was quickly bought by an elderly couple.

The third lot was an exquisite diamond brooch in the shape of an owl, with a starting price of 300 million. Rosie thought it was quite pleasing to her eye, so she raised her paddle and bid a price.

Liu Meilan remained unmoved, and another guest followed suit.

The designer of this brooch won the Andreasen Designer Award this year, so the value of this brooch has also increased.

The guests present were extremely enthusiastic in bidding, and soon the price doubled to 600 million.

At this moment, Gu Yingying, the reckless little girl who had bumped into Luo Xi just now, suddenly raised her sign and called out a high price of "1000 million".

Rosie wasn't that interested in the brooch, and seeing the high price, she decided not to follow suit.

Ling Yuan, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up: "5000 million."

The entire place was instantly enveloped in silence, as if time had frozen at that moment. In the utterly silent atmosphere, only people's gazes, some obvious and some obscure, spread quietly towards this side like fine spider silk.

Rosie has become largely desensitized to being the center of attention. It's no wonder, after all, her partners are exceptional individuals. When they're out together, even just strolling down an ordinary street, their radiant charm and extraordinary aura naturally draw attention. With so much experience, Rosie has gradually adapted to this constant state of being the center of attention.

When Gu Yingying heard Ling Yuan speak, the oppressive feeling she had felt when they met just now instantly returned. Her neck unconsciously shrank inward, and the courage that was originally eager to try disappeared without a trace in an instant. She no longer dared to think about making an offer.

The man next to Gu Yingying turned his head and took a look, then turned back and asked, "Do you want it? You want me to take a picture for you."

Gu Yingying quickly shook her head: "Forget it, brother, I don't really like it that much."

She said it sincerely, but in her heart, she couldn't get her brother into trouble. That sister's boyfriend was so scary. He just glanced at her, and she still felt a chill down her spine.

After the auction started and she saw the man's ferocious bidding, she knew that her sixth sense was indeed very accurate.

It’s more important to save your life.

After today's auction, everyone has a good understanding of Ling Yuan's style.

Anyone who bids a price from Liu Meilan will be directly crushed by Ling Yuan by a price in the billions.

He would also attack any of his female companions who looked at him twice or bid a price, but he would not be as brutal as he was to Liu Meilan.

After a few rounds, everyone figured out the pattern and naturally didn't dare to provoke this big shot who appeared out of nowhere. When they saw that the big shot was about to take action, everyone else would consciously put down their number plates.

Can't beat it.
