Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo
Chapter 158 Wan's Proposal Gift
Huo Chenjun was wearing a well-tailored dark blue suit, and the silver collar pin on his tie sparkled in the light, adding just the right touch of embellishment, neither too ostentatious nor too low-key.
Sitting next to Mr. Huo is the elegant Su Xianyun, who is wearing a simple and capable business suit and exudes a professional aura.
Mr. Huo narrowed his eyes slightly and was secretly alert in his heart. Zhou Mufeng's arrival undoubtedly added a bit of tension to the atmosphere.
Under the bright lights, every exhibit was given new life, especially the two rare diamonds, one of which was blue. The auctioneer named it "Star of Beloved". It emitted a faint blue light and attracted the attention of countless people.
The host struck the bronze hammer, announcing the official start of filming for Blue Diamond.
The starting price was set at nine million, which instantly aroused a heated response.
Numerous buyers raised their number plates, bidding in waves, creating a tense yet passionate atmosphere. Each time the bid number jumped, the crowd gasped in amazement and discussion.
Zhou Mufeng naturally would not miss such an opportunity. He made frequent bids, and each time the price increase was astonishing, 930 million, 950 million, 990 million... Whenever other buyers hesitated, he would push up the price without hesitation, trying to overwhelm everyone and dominate the market.
Every move he makes demonstrates his financial strength and determination.
However, the real battle took place after Huo Chenjun joined the battle.
Faced with Zhou Mufeng's strong offer, he did not react immediately, but observed patiently and took decisive action when the time was right.
When the price climbed to 1100 million, Huo Chenjun finally took action. He asked Su Xianyun to raise the price to 1200 million at once, directly surpassing all previous records and shocking the audience.
As the price continued to rise, most participants withdrew one after another, leaving only Mr. Huo and Zhou Mufeng to compete.
When Zhou Mufeng saw that it was the lady next to Huo Chenjun who was raising the price, he didn't want to give up anymore, so he immediately followed suit and raised the price to 1400 million, intending to regain the initiative.
But Huo Chenjun's expression remained unchanged, his gaze firm, as if he had already made sufficient preparations. Finally, in full view of the crowd, Su Xianyun, following Mr. Huo's instructions, resoundingly announced a price of 1600 million, leaving everyone present dumbfounded.
Just when everyone thought the auction was about to reach a fever pitch, Zhou Mufeng's cell phone rang. It was an emergency call from his grandfather.
At this critical moment, he hesitated for a moment and then answered the phone.
Taking a deep breath, he pressed the answer button and heard his grandfather's low and stern voice: "Mu Feng, I got the news that you were too aggressive at the auction. Remember, the family's wealth is not for squandering. No matter what diamond you buy, you can't spend more than 10 million yuan on this item."
Zhou Mufeng held the phone tightly, his brows furrowed.
He wanted to compete with Huo Chenjun and buy the diamond to give to Miss Tang, but this idea was severely hit by reality. He replied softly: "Grandpa, okay, I understand..."
"This is not a question of whether you know it or not, this is a family principle." Grandpa's voice became more firm. "Our wealth is passed down from generation to generation. You have the obligation and responsibility to maintain its steady growth rather than blindly consume it. Otherwise..." Grandpa Zhou's tone was serious and threatening.
Faced with his grandfather's majesty, Zhou Mufeng was unable to refute and could only bow his head and accept it. "Okay, Grandpa, I promise you, I won't exceed the budget." There was a hint of helplessness in his words.
On the other end of the phone, Grandpa heard Zhou Mufeng's reply and his tone softened: "Okay, I hope you can do what you say."
Afterwards, the call ended, leaving Zhou Mufeng with a heavy heart. After hanging up, although his face was filled with resentment, he did not raise the bid again.
With the host's confirmation, the hammer sounded crisply, and the blue diamond finally belonged to Huo Chenjun.
Zhou Mufeng looked at this scene with a gloomy expression and a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.
Next to Zhou Mufeng, the eighteenth-tier female star gently put her arm around his shoulder, trying to comfort him with a sweet voice: "Don't worry too much, dear. There are many other beautiful jewels, and I would be just as happy to receive them as gifts." She tried to bring the atmosphere back to a relaxed and happy state.
However, Zhou Mufeng's response was beyond her expectations. He suddenly turned sideways, staring at the female star with sharp eyes, and spoke quickly and coldly: "This is not for you! You are just a woman who accompanies me occasionally."
His words were sharp, not disguising his inner contempt and boredom. There was even a hint of sarcasm hanging on the corner of his mouth. "Do you think I like you? The one I really love is another woman, and I haven't got her yet. The longer I can't get her, the more I want her!!!"
Zhou Mufeng's attitude is frivolous and casual.
When these words came out, the little star himself was stunned.
Zhou Mufeng's cynical smile seemed particularly cold at this moment.
"Didn't you say you loved me?" the little star asked him.
Zhou Mufeng's tone was tinged with impatience, "I didn't fight for the diamond just to give it to you. This was a contest between me and another man. I feel ashamed to lose!" His words were straightforward and left no room for maneuver. Obviously, he was so emotional that he had no intention of concealing his true feelings.
On the way back in the car, Su Xianyun was a little curious and asked, "Mr. Huo, this diamond is so expensive, 1600 million, who are you going to give it to?"
Huo Chenjun responded calmly: "I want to give it to my girlfriend to propose to her."
Huo Chenjun imagined that if this blue diamond was inlaid on an exquisite platinum necklace and hung around Tang Xiaqing's slender and graceful neck, it would be magnificent.
The sparkling gem would surely be even more dazzling against her snow-white skin, complementing her delicate collarbone, outlining a picture that would make his heart beat.
Huo Chenjun planned to put it on her himself and kiss her collarbone when he proposed to her.
