As the host spoke, a striking red countdown began on the screen below the audience, starting from ten.

She glanced at the crowd, and everyone looked excited.

Although the host did not explain the rules, everyone in the booths picked up the remote controls on the table.

Lin Qingran frowned, her expression hesitant. She turned to look at Gu Moxuan and the others, only to see that their expressions were very calm.

It seems that "Tuesday Feast" is a regular and distinctive program on "Night Glamour" TV.

The girl sitting on the ground, trembling in a cage, in the audience, evoked a strange sense of pity.

She was clearly terrified, her eyes filled with despair.

Lin Qingran frowned, her expression turning serious.

"Don't you think that's going too far?"

She had no idea that Gu Moxuan was also attending such a shady party.

Married for three years, this was the first time she had ever met Gu Moxuan like this.

The hostess beside Gu Moxuan couldn't help but chuckle softly when she saw Lin Qingran speaking to Gu Moxuan in a condescending tone, acting like a savior.

"Miss, is this your first time visiting 'Nightmare'? The girl in the audience signed the agreement with us voluntarily, and today's auction was also her own choice."

"She was desperate for money and willingly sold herself. 'Nightmare' provided her with a venue, and these people were very grateful."

Lin Qingran frowned.

Nie Jingchen coughed lightly, signaling the hostess to stop talking, but the hostess didn't understand the meaning in Nie Jingchen's eyes.

I just feel that a woman like Lin Qingran, who eagerly follows Gu Moxuan to places like this, isn't much more noble than him.

I don't know which family she comes from; she's a pampered young lady who's never seen the world.

Seeing that Gu Moxuan was leaving her aside, it was clear that she wasn't a very important person to him.

So she became even bolder.

"If you're interested, Miss, you can give it a try. With your looks, you can get a very good price here."

"So far, the most expensive girl we've sold at auction cost over ten million. I wonder if you, Miss, have any chance..."

Before the hostess could finish speaking, someone suddenly grabbed her neck from the side.

Gu Moxuan's face was gloomy, and under the bright lights, he looked particularly sinister.

"you wanna die?"

He was burning with an unknown rage, and his whole being was terrifyingly sinister.

The hostess had no idea that her words had angered Gu Moxuan; she only felt that his hand was about to strangle her.

But she dared not speak or resist.

The hostess who was serving Gu Moxuan with her sat quietly to one side, watching everything coldly, without pleading for her or saying anything.

Everyone remained silent, as if the person being gripped by Gu Moxuan's neck was merely an ant as insignificant as dust.

Lin Qingran watched calmly, and after a while, said in a low voice.

"Go down."

Gu Moxuan frowned and withdrew his hand.

The hostess was terrified and hurriedly left.

The other princess beside Gu Moxuan also got up to leave, but Gu Moxuan grabbed her wrist and made her sit down again.

Lin Qingran then noticed her.

She was wearing a white dress, her makeup was exquisite, and she sat quietly with a touch of elegance in her eyes.

She didn't seem like someone who worked as a hostess here; she seemed more like a well-born heiress who had fallen on hard times and ended up in this place.

Sensible and reasonable.

Lin Qingran glanced at her name tag, which had her pseudonym on it.

Princess Elsa.

In this circle, everyone's name is a pseudonym, so Lin Qingran is not surprised.

The Snow Princess, that does suit her temperament.

When Elsa saw Lin Qingran look up at her, she slowly turned her gaze to Lin Qingran.

She knew that Gu Moxuan had suddenly become angry because Eileen had mentioned this woman, which was why he suddenly became furious.

She has been working here for two years.

She was present at almost every show that Gu Moxuan came to "Night Charm".

The woman before him, whose brows exuded a cool and aloof aura, was the first person Gu Moxuan had brought with him, "Night Enchantress".

Chen Cen'an didn't have a good impression of her, but she didn't dare to say anything too outrageous in front of Gu Moxuan.

Nie Jingchen's attitude became even more obvious. When speaking to her, he had to carefully observe her expression, and his words seemed to carry a hint of flattery.

Beicheng could be considered their territory.

Someone who commands such caution from Nie Jingchen is certainly not an insignificant person.

Seeing her looking at her, she slightly raised the corners of her lips, her smile faint, picked up the wine bottle beside her, and poured herself a glass of wine.

"Miss, would you like a drink?"

As she spoke, she picked up the wine glass with both hands and handed it to Lin Qingran.

Gong Juncheng and the others all turned their attention to Lin Qingran.

Chen Cen'an glanced at Lin Qingran and spoke.

"Elsa, you don't need to worry about her."

Lin Qingran did not answer. She noticed the remote control on the table, which belonged to the other people in the booths.

She reached over the glass Elsa offered and picked up the remote control from the table.

"Use this for the auction?"

Elsa paused for a moment, but didn't show any embarrassment on her face. She slowly put down her wine glass, didn't answer Lin Qingran's question, and instead snuggled back to Gu Moxuan's side.

Her movements were natural and ordinary.

But only a woman could see through her little thoughts at that moment.

It was simply telling Lin Qingran that she was different from the hostess who had just left.

She was more favored by Gu Moxuan.

Gong Juncheng raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw Lin Qingran pick up the remote control.

"Please."

Lin Qingran pursed her lips and glanced at the numbers already achieved on the monitor below the stage.

five million.

That's quite a sum of money.

She slowly pressed a series of numbers on the remote control.

Fifteen million.

This has already exceeded the highest price previously achieved for "Nightmare".

The bar lights immediately illuminated the booths here.

The faces of Gong Juncheng, Nie Jingchen, Gu Moxuan, and Chen Cen'an appeared clearly before everyone.

The numbers on the display screen are no longer increasing.

The man sitting in the booth opposite them, who had been bidding the whole time, was a little discouraged. He threw down the remote control in his hand and raised his wine glass towards them.

Gong Juncheng, the owner of "Night Charm", is known to very few people.

Therefore, no one dared to bid again for his table, which was also a way of giving Gong Juncheng face.

Gong Juncheng raised his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

He then looked at Lin Qingran and said calmly.

What are you taking these pictures for?

His voice was calm, and his attitude towards Lin Qingran remained indifferent.

Lin Qingran answered slowly and calmly.

"I know her."

Gu Moxuan frowned slightly, looked at Lin Qingran with a deep gaze, and said in a cold voice.

"Pay first, then pick up the person."

Given the current situation of the Lin family, it won't be easy for Lin Qingran to come up with 15 million.

Soon, a staff member from "Nightmare" came over with a card reader.

Lin Qingran remained calm, took out a black card, and swiped and signed it with a composed expression.

Seeing her bold actions, Gu Moxuan couldn't help but wonder how much private wealth Lin Qingran actually had.

But soon, his phone received a notification text message.

Lin Qingran just swiped the supplementary credit card that he had thrown in her face early in their marriage.

For the past three years, Lin Qingran has never used this card, to the point that Gu Moxuan had forgotten about its existence.
