The Domineering CEO's Darling Wife's Brave Journey into the World of the Rich
Chapter 71 Auction (3)
When the car arrived at the entrance of the auction, Lin Bai quickly got out to open the door for Mo Nanyu. Liang Jinyue saw Lin Bai get out of the car and also quickly got out. After Mo Nanyu got out of the car, he straightened his clothes and put one hand on the car door and stretched out the other hand. Su Nanxing helped Mo Nanyu out of the car.
The auction was hosted by the Chen family. When the head of the Chen family saw Mo Nanyu, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. After Mo Nanyu helped Su Nanxing out of the car, he looked at the head of the Chen family. The head of the Chen family smiled and said, "Mr. Mo, it is a pleasure to have you here. Your presence is an honor to my humble abode. And who is this?"
Mo Nanyu coldly looked at the Chen family patriarch and said, "My wife." The Chen family patriarch replied, "Hello, Madam Mo." Su Nanxing nodded and said, "Hello." Then the Chen family patriarch said, "Please come in, everyone. Mr. Mo, we have prepared elegant seats for you on the second floor."
Mo Nanyu nodded, took Su Nanxing's hand, and walked inside. Liang Jinyue and Lin Bai followed behind. After they sat down, Su Nanxing swung her legs and looked down, then said, "Ayu, I want to eat an apple." Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll peel one for you."
As he spoke, he picked up a fruit knife and started peeling an apple. When someone came to chat with Mo Nanyu, he would talk while peeling the fruit. After he finished peeling, he cut the fruit into pieces and fed them to Su Nanxing one by one with toothpicks. The people around him looked at Mo Nanyu in shock.
Just as the organizers delivered the list of auction items to Mo Nanyu, Su Nanxing took it from him. To the onlookers, Mo Nanyu asked with a doting expression, "Want some more?" Su Nanxing took another bite and said, "No, you eat it." Then she and Liang Jinyue looked at the list of auction items.
Mo Nanyu said indulgently, "Okay," and then ate the rest of the apple in his hand. Everyone else was guessing Su Nanxing's identity when Xian Jiahe walked over and said, "Big brother, sister-in-law, you're here too!"
Su Nanxing looked up and saw Xian Jiahe, saying, "Hey, you're here too. Let me introduce you, this is Xian Jiahe, Nanyu's brother." Liang Jinyue greeted Xian Jiahe.
Xian Jiahe said, "Brother and sister-in-law, I'll go over there first." Mo Nanyu nodded and said, "Okay." Then Mo Nanyu crossed his hands on his lap, glancing at Su Nanxing from time to time.
The auction officially started at 9:30. Su Nanxing said, "Tell me what you like, cousin, and I'll bid for it for you." Liang Jinyue nodded and said, "Okay." Then Su Nanxing yawned.
Noticing this, Mo Nanyu asked, "What's wrong? Are you sleepy?" Su Nanxing shook her head and said, "No, I'm just a little tired. Ayu, I want some coconut juice." Mo Nanyu nodded and said, "Okay, Lin Bai, go see where you can buy coconut juice."
Lin Bai nodded and said, "Yes," and then left his seat. Mo Nanyu reached out and intertwined his fingers with Su Nanxing's, while Su Nanxing ate the fruit on the table with her other hand.
Looking at the items being auctioned below, Su Nanxing asked, "Ayu, are the auctions in Kyoto usually hosted by the Chen family?" Mo Nanyu nodded and said, "More or less." Su Nanxing nodded as well.
Host: "Next up for auction is a 50-gram mother-of-pearl, starting at 1 million, with each bid increasing by at least 500,000!" Mo Nanyu asked Su Nanxing, "Does the baby like this?" Su Nanxing nodded and said, "It looks quite pretty."
Mo Nanyu nodded and looked down. "One million five hundred thousand!" "Two million!" Mo Nanyu raised the sign and said, "Five million!" Liang Jinyue behind him looked shocked, while Su Nanxing played with Mo Nanyu's hand with a calm expression.
"Five and a half million!" Seeing that someone else was still bidding, Mo Nanyu raised his paddle again and shouted, "Ten million!" The entire room fell silent. The host waited a moment and then said, "Ten million once!...Ten million twice! Anyone else bidding? Ten million three times!" The gavel fell. "Sold!"
Soon someone took the items back down. At this time, Lin Bai returned and handed the coconut juice to Mo Nanyu. After taking the coconut juice, Mo Nanyu first poured a glass for Su Nanxing and then poured a glass for Liang Jinyue.
Liang Jinyue quickly thanked him. Su Nanxing, holding the list of auction items, said, "Here, cousin, what do you think of this necklace? Do you like it?" Liang Jinyue smiled and said, "It's alright." Su Nanxing nodded and said, "Lin Bai, bid for it." Lin Bai nodded and said, "Yes, madam."
The auction was still going on past 11 PM. Su Nanxing asked Liang Jinyue, "Do you need to go to the restroom?" Liang Jinyue nodded and said, "Yes." Then Su Nanxing said, "Ayu, let's go to the restroom."
Mo Nanyu nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead. Do you want me to come with you?" Su Nanxing shook her head and said, "No need." Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "Go ahead, be careful." Su Nanxing said, "Okay," and left with Liang Jinyue.
Inside the private room, Lin Bai asked, "Boss, should we bid on the land in the southern part of the city?" Mo Nanyu twirled the ring on his finger and replied, "Yes." Lin Bai nodded and said, "Okay."
After using the restroom, Su Nanxing and Liang Jinyue didn't go back immediately. Instead, they stood on the balcony, chatting and enjoying the breeze.
Liang Jinyue said, "Your world has changed." Su Nanxing smiled and said, "How so?" Liang Jinyue smiled and said, "When you were still there, you were very careful with your money. Now you spend millions without a second thought." Su Nanxing smiled and said, "That's just how the world is. If you don't work hard and strive for improvement, you'll be the next one to be eliminated. The world is changing, and people are always changing too."
Liang Jinyue said, "I used to say I'd take you traveling when we grew up, but now I don't even have that chance anymore." Su Nanxing laughed, "What? Where do you want to take me?" Liang Jinyue laughed, "I used to say I'd take you to Sarawak when I made money, but now you probably don't need me to take you anymore, right?"
Su Nanxing said, "If you want to go, then we'll go." Liang Jinyue shook her head and said, "Let's wait for a chance. I still have to work. When I was little, I didn't have money, and now that I'm grown up, I don't have time. Playing has become a luxury." Su Nanxing said, "How about staying in Kyoto? I'll let you work at my company." Liang Jinyue said, "No, my parents are still there. I have to go back to visit them during holidays. Land in Kyoto is so expensive; I don't have the resources to survive here. Going back would take too long, so it's not worth it."
Su Nanxing nodded and said, "Whatever you want." The two stayed on the balcony for about ten minutes before returning to their private room. After sitting down, Mo Nanyu asked, "Why did it take you so long? Did something happen?"
Su Nanxing shook her head and said, "No, I just stayed on the balcony for a while to get some fresh air." Mo Nanyu asked softly, "Are you feeling unwell?" Su Nanxing replied, "No, I just felt a little stuffy." Mo Nanyu nodded and then asked, "Do you want to go home?"
Su Nanxing said, "Isn't it over yet? Let's finish before we leave, otherwise it'll seem disrespectful." Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "Okay, whatever you say. But baby, if we leave, they can't do anything to us. They wouldn't dare touch the Mo family's power." Su Nanxing nodded and said, "I know."
The auction ended after 1 a.m. Lin Bai went to hand over the auction items, while Su Nanxing and the other two waited for Lin Bai in the car. Afterwards, they first took Liang Jinyue to Shenglan Bay before returning to Chang'an Jingyuan. By the time they got back, it was already past 2 a.m.
