After returning to the wealthy family, I was abused by my biological parents

"Mr. Chen, why don't you go to the hotel to wash up and rest for a while? We'll provide a few places for you to choose from, how about that?"

Lan Xiang nodded and said, "Don't bother. We'll just wash up when we get there and have something to eat."

While she was talking, Xiao Qian, who was driving in front of her, was driving seriously and didn't say a word.

Xiao Gao turned around and listened attentively.

After Lanxiang finished speaking, she gently tugged at Chen Ping'an's clothes.

Chen Pingan said: "Okay, listen to her."

After getting in the car, the Coopers kept smiling and hardly spoke.

After going around in circles, they arrived at the hotel and Xiao Gao directly handed him four room cards.

"The two suites on the top floor are ready. I see you didn't bring much luggage. It's still early, so why don't we go shopping? I can have the two ladies change into nice clothes for dinner tonight."

The nightclubs in Hong Kong Island are very famous. If you agree, I can arrange a private room right away."

Chen Pingan looked at Anna and Lanxiang, "Do you two want to go and take a look?"

Anna smiled and nodded, "I want to go!"

Lan Xiang had no choice but to nod and said, "It's okay to go and experience it. You will accompany me, right?"

"Of course, I'll be with you the whole time."

Not only did they buy a lot of things that day, they also experienced a very authentic local food stall.

This was Anna's request.

Neither Chen Pingan nor Edwards would refuse. He had no special preferences in food.

Lanxiang is not a big shot and doesn't mind snacks. Besides, she has lived in a place like Dunhuang for several years and has eaten a lot of unpalatable food.

It can be said that we had a very pleasant evening.

The next day, the four of them changed their clothes. Chen Pingan didn't want to attend the auction and planned to leave the matter to Edwards. He and Xiao Qian went to see a place to customize classical wedding dresses. Lanxiang wanted to go to the auction, so Chen Pingan had to follow her.

In fact, Chen Pingan did not feel the so-called pressure of price increases in books and film and television works at all.

Chen Ping'an could feel that someone was observing the four of them, and some people had surprised expressions when they saw Xiao Gao and Xiao Qian, but none of this mattered.

Edwards first took the initiative to buy a set of tableware that was said to have been used by a certain duke from the so-called Russian side.

Because Anna likes it very much.

Chen Ping'an and Lanxiang sat there without moving, just listening carefully to the auctioneer's passionate explanation and deception.

He himself didn't have much judgment on the value of things because he had never paid attention to them, but it was different for Lanxiang.

There is also a Buddha statue in her home in Beijing that Edwards bought from an auction.

Because of her job, she has seen some things, so she is more interested in things at the auction.

Chen Pingan put the number plate in his hand into her hand and whispered in her ear, "Raise the plate for whatever you like. Don't worry about losing the competition."

Lanxiang glanced at him with a half-smile, as if to say "this local tycoon is really rich".

Chen Pingan shrugged. "This is the first time you and I have ever been together and you have decided whether to buy something or not. As your young friend, I will be responsible for paying the bill. So give me a chance."

Lanxiang smiled and nodded.

He just glanced through the brochure that introduced the auction items. Lanxiang and Anna huddled together, looking at it and whispering to each other that now was their moment.

He and Edwards sat on the side, with Lanxiang and Anna in the middle.

This was Anna's first time attending an auction. When she bought the tableware, she told Lanxiang, "I'll feel very proud to put this in my cupboard. But this is part of Western culture. It's okay if you don't understand. I'll put it in my cupboard."

Lanxiang also has things she wants to photograph. For example, she believes that her future home will definitely need a historical Buddha statue or Bodhisattva statue.

Because it has been around for a long time, and if it has been worshipped long enough, maybe there will be some mysterious power in it!

The items for auction include not only Buddha statues, but also two folding screens. The collector must be short of money to be willing to put them up for auction.

Because this pair of screens is of first-class quality and has been well maintained.

The brochure said there was no damage.

Lanxiang wanted it, so when filming started, she was the first to raise the sign.

The final quote was 3000 million.

Chen Ping'an was completely indifferent to this thing. Watching Lan Xiang raise her hand again and again, he couldn't help but ask, "Besides being an antique with some collectible value, what else is good about this thing?"

Lanxiang opened the album and pointed at the reliefs and intaglio carvings. "The value lies in the technique and the historical weight. This thing is from the Song Dynasty and is worth collecting."

"There are so many things worth collecting, why don't you hold up a sign in front of us?"

"Because I don't like it." Lanxiang said as she raised the number plate in her hand again.

"6600 million! 6600 million already, is there anyone bidding higher?"

The auctioneer asked with a smile on his face, his eyes sweeping across the audience.

"6700 million, guest number 16 raised his sign, 6700 million!"

Chen Pingan snatched the number plate from Lanxiang's hand and raised it up, saying, "1 million!"

Then he leaned close to Lanxiang's ear and said, "If you want it, don't bother with them, just kill them."

"Guest No. 32 bids 1 million! 1 million, is there anyone else bidding higher..."

Lanxiang gave him a reproachful look and snatched the number plate back at the auctioneer's shout.

"It's no fun shooting like this."

"One hundred and ten million!" A calm voice came from the front.

"One hundred and fifty million!" Without waiting for the auctioneer to speak, Lanxiang raised the number plate in her hand and said calmly.

Chen Pingan smiled and said, "Yes, just shoot it like this, let him know that you really want this thing and you are not short of money."

Lanxiang said nothing.

There was a small commotion in the audience, and people looked over from several places.

However, no one knew the other three people including Chen Pingan, and seeing Anna's excited look with her fists clenched, they were all a little confused. Where did this powerful person come from?

"It's 150 million. The current price is 150 million."

After the price exceeded 1 million, no one bid anymore, except for No. 16 and Lanxiang's No. 32.

What they didn't know was the background of the owner of No. 16, and there was a reason no one made an offer.

In Lanxiang's eyes, the value of this pair of screens should not exceed 2 million in any case.

Although such old things are becoming less and less common in the market these days, it is a blessing to be able to see one.

However, with Chen Pingan around, she naturally didn't want to give up easily.
