I am in the last days, I can connect to reality

As night falls and the lights come on, time quietly slips to half past ten in the evening.

The building where Christie's auction house is located on Murray Road in Central, Hong Kong, is like a shining pearl, emitting charming light in the night. Under the reflection of the lights, it looks solemn and mysterious.

At this moment, the vehicle that Sun Xiaoyan and his group were riding in had already stopped on the road outside the Christie's auction house building and was queuing up to allow the passengers to get off.

Sun Xiaoyan sat in the car, looking around casually through the window. She was wearing a black evening dress, the hem of which was as deep as the night, dotted with sequins that sparkled under the lights, as if it were the brightest star in the night sky.

Her long hair was carefully tied up, with a few strands hanging by her ears, adding a touch of elegance. She had light makeup on her face, and her delicate features appeared more three-dimensional under the light, with a dazzling light sparkling in her eyes.

The reason why this auction is held at night is that there will be a charity reception after the auction, and all the guests invited to the auction will be invited to attend.

That's why Sun Xiaoyan dressed up to attend the event and to participate in the cocktail party after the auction. After all, Tianhai Pharmaceutical is also one of the top ten pharmaceutical companies in China and needs to further demonstrate its strength in international circles such as Hong Kong Island.

While waiting, Ma Fang sat beside her, looking down at the documents in her hand from time to time, as if confirming something. The female bodyguard sitting in the passenger seat glanced around vigilantly, ready to deal with any possible emergencies at any time.

Soon, the Lexus slowly drove to the gate of the building. The female bodyguard got out of the car first, looked around quickly, and after confirming that it was safe, she nodded slightly to Sun Xiaoyan.

Sun Xiaoyan then walked down gracefully, her high heels making crisp sounds on the ground. Every step she took seemed unhurried, and a faint smile remained at the corner of her mouth.

After showing the invitation to the Christie's auction to the doorman, Sun Xiaoyan, together with Ma Fang and the female bodyguard, walked into the building where the auction was held. Under the guidance of the waiter, they took the elevator to the sixth floor of the building.

"Ding dong!"

As the elevator door opened, a waiter immediately came respectfully to the corridor outside the elevator. After checking Sun Xiaoyan's invitation, he immediately walked in front to lead the way for the three people.

The three followed the waiter into the auction house's hall. The spacious space was carefully decorated to be both solemn and luxurious.

A huge crystal chandelier hangs on the high ceiling. Countless crystal beads sparkle softly under the light. The soft light sprinkles in every corner, illuminating the entire auction hall brightly but not dazzlingly.

Directly in front of the auction hall is a tall auction platform with an exquisite auction table on it, a microphone and a laptop.

Behind the auction table is a huge screen on which pictures and related information of the items to be auctioned tonight are played back and forth.

On both sides of the auction hall are ordinary seats, with rows of seats neatly arranged and ample space between each row to facilitate participants' entry and exit.

In the front area facing the auction table are three rows of special VIP seats, separated by crimson velvet fences, which appear particularly noble.

Unfortunately, because Sun Xiaoyan learned about the auction of this item quite late, the VIP seats had already been sold out. In the end, he had to ask for help from a relevant intermediary agency and was able to buy three ordinary seats for tonight's auction.

But for Sun Xiaoyan, it doesn't matter. VIP seats are just more comfortable, and ordinary seats can be priced higher. For Sun Xiaoyan, as long as the goal is achieved, it doesn't matter where you sit.

……

At this time, the auction hall was already full of people. Since it had not started yet, there was some noise. Many well-dressed men and women were gathered in groups of three or five, holding wine glasses and talking in low voices. Laughter could be heard from time to time.

As Sun Xiaoyan and the other two walked into the hall, Sun Xiaoyan, who was walking in front, immediately attracted many men to nod slightly. After all, she was dressed particularly beautifully tonight and it was hard not to attract other people's attention.

"Ma'am, this is my business card. I hope to have the opportunity to invite you to dinner!"

"Beautiful lady, I am the executive director of a certain company. My last name is Zhang. This is my phone number. Please call me when you are free."

"..."

As she followed the waiter to her seat, well-dressed men would appear in front of Sun Xiaoyan from time to time, handing her their business cards and inviting her to have dinner together on a certain day, or giving her their phone number, hoping to keep in touch.

Sun Xiaoyan was no longer a young girl who had just started out. She handled these social events well and maintained a kind smile. She let Ma Fang accept the business card and nodded with a smile.

Sun Xiaoyan's graceful demeanor and appropriate response made her loved by a large number of unmarried men, and also made her a highlight of the venue as soon as she arrived.

Even after Sun Xiaoyan and the other two sat down, there were still men who came up and handed over their business cards, hoping for a chance to have sex with her, but they were all politely stopped by Ma Fang.

In the VIP seats that Sun Xiaoyan and the other two did not notice, Lu Siyu and Xing Deli were there. Looking at Sun Xiaoyan, who was wearing a black evening dress and stole the show, Lu Siyu's eyes showed inexplicable jealousy.

Although Lu Siyu is also very beautiful and the evening dress she wore today is also quite high-end, she is just an ordinary peasant girl and unlike Sun Xiaoyan, she did not receive a good family education since childhood.

Moreover, Sun Xiaoyan, who has received a good education and been influenced by an active atmosphere since childhood, has a special temperament that Lu Siyu does not have. This temperament, combined with Sun Xiaoyan's own beauty, makes her particularly attractive.

"Humph, no matter how pretty you are, what good is it? You still can only sit in the ordinary seats!"

Lu Siyu looked at Sun Xiaoyan, who was sitting in a regular seat, and thought maliciously, "Since she's here tonight, she must be planning to take some photos. I'll have Xing Deli intercept her and leave her with nothing tonight. When the dinner starts, I'll give her a good scolding!"

"Dong Dong..." At this moment, there were several sounds of hammer knocking on the auction table.

"Dear guests, welcome to today's auction. Please return to your seats. The auction will officially begin in two minutes!"

As the auctioneer shouted, the lights in the auction hall began to change. The lights in the venue began to become dimmer, while the lights on the auction table became brighter.

As a result, the people below couldn't help but look at the auction table, and those who had not yet sat down began to return to their seats.

Sun Xiaoyan also breathed a sigh of relief. The clingy and annoying bugs around her finally left, giving her a chance to relax her cheeks that were stiff from smiling.
