hotel lobby.

Lin Mo, who had arrived earlier, had been waiting at the door. Upon hearing the bodyguard's report from upstairs, his expression changed slightly, and he gave the bodyguard a deep look.

"Was your wife bullied?"

The bodyguard nodded. "It looks like his hand was scratched."

Lin Mo's brows furrowed coldly: "Go find out who that crazy woman is. Don't wait for the boss to come and do it himself."

"Yes." The bodyguard turned and quickly returned to the banquet hall.

Lin Mo was considering whether to tell his boss about this when he saw the composed Maybach slowly drive up and stop in front of the door.

His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly ran over and deftly opened the back door.

"boss!"

"Ah."

A faint response followed, and then a tall, slender figure stepped out of the car.

"You've finally arrived." Some things can't be kept secret.

Lin Mo took a deep breath and looked at Han Xi, hesitant to speak.

Han Xi turned his head, and a few traces of coldness appeared in his calm eyes, making Lin Mo's scalp tighten.

"what happened?"

"...Something went wrong."

-

"Three hundred thousand!"

"Three hundred and fifty thousand!"

......

"Half a million!"

Inside the banquet hall.

The donation segment had ended, and after the host briefly introduced the rules and gave a short warm-up speech, the auction officially began.

The fourth item up for auction is a Cartier diamond watch.

A popular young actress donated land, and several men who are interested in her are vying to bid for it.

"one million!"

A watch that costs tens of thousands of dollars being auctioned off for a million dollars is already considered an astronomical price.

The young actress looked at the man who made the offer, her face full of surprise.

Some were disappointed, others were envious, and as the cheers grew louder, the dinner party soon reached its first small climax.

The host cracked a few jokes and then began introducing the fifth item.

As luck would have it, the fifth item in the auction was the emerald necklace that Yu Wei had donated.

As the host introduced the necklace, Yu Wei's hand holding her handbag tightened almost instantly.

She glanced subconsciously at Yu Minghai not far away as she walked through the crowd. Yu Minghai seemed to sense her gaze, turned to look at her, and his eyes held a deep meaning.

She quickly and nervously looked away, biting her lip uneasily. Then she grabbed Song Yuchen's sleeve and looked up at him: "Achen, will you really help me get the necklace back?"

Song Yuchen's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled, "Don't worry, I know this necklace is very important to you, and I will definitely not let it fall into the hands of others."

Yu Wei was moved, her eyes welling up with tears. "Yes, I believe you."

Soon, bidding began.

The necklace truly lives up to its reputation as a new product from Yu's largest jewelry brand; its materials and design alone captivated countless women present.

"three million!"

Someone offered a low price directly.

Unfortunately, such a high price still did not dampen everyone's enthusiasm.

Someone else chimed in: "Three and a half million!"

Four million!

Yu Wei glanced nervously at Song Yuchen beside her. Song Yuchen held up a sign: "Four million five hundred thousand!"

"five million!"

Song Yuchen frowned: "Five million five hundred thousand!"

Five and a half million is no small sum.

Those in the know understand that this price is almost double the original value of the necklace.

Many people have been deterred by this price and have stopped trying to compete, opting instead to wait and see.

Yu Wei glanced around, feeling a slight sense of relief amidst her nervousness, and looked at Song Yuchen beside her with joy in her eyes.

Jiang Shiyi returned here at some point.

Seeing Song Yuchen's extravagant spending of millions in the auction, she happily whispered to Yu Wei, "Brother Chen is so handsome! Look, so many women are watching her. You'll definitely be the most envied woman tonight!"

Yu Wei was secretly delighted, but she still forced herself to remain calm and said with a smile, "Alright, Shiyi, keep your voice down so no one can hear you."

"So what if I heard that? Happiness should be seen by everyone. They can only be envious! Especially that Xu Fangli, I really want to see her reaction now!"

As she spoke, she suddenly remembered something and said with a smug look of delight, "Oh, right, you know what? Xu Fangli just now refused to donate, so I had no choice but to help her out myself!"

"What did you do?" Yu Wei frowned slightly.

Jiang Shiyi said smugly, "Just you wait and see. I want to see how she'll explain herself if people find out the item is fake in this kind of setting!"

Yu Wei: "...Tone it down, don't go too far."

"Don't worry, she was the one showing off the fake goods; I didn't do anything."

The two were talking in hushed tones when someone else made a bid, bringing the price of the necklace up to 6.5 million.

Upon hearing this, Yu Wei's eyes immediately showed a hint of panic.

Especially when she saw Song Yuchen's hand holding the bidding paddle hesitate noticeably, her relaxed heart couldn't help but jump again.

“Ah Chen…”

Song Yuchen glanced down at her, and Yu Wei gently bit her lip, staring at him pleadingly.

Her red, moist lips were marked with several shallow bite marks, her slender neck was raised, and the cleavage of her chest was almost completely visible.

Song Yuchen's Adam's apple bobbed slightly. He squeezed the bidding paddle in his right hand, gritted his teeth, and shouted, "Eight million!"

A jump of 1.5 million.

As soon as he finished speaking, a commotion erupted in the hall.

Song Yuchen has indeed developed very quickly in the past two years. Many people present tonight know him. People in the industry are surprised that a newcomer who has only been in the industry for a few years has such financial resources.

Meanwhile, some bigwigs outside the industry, such as Yu Minghai and his group, were surprised by the young man's boldness.

Eight million is nothing to them, but spending it on a woman... that's something to think about carefully.

Seeing that no one else was bidding, Yu Wei became increasingly nervous.

"Sister Wei, it seems this necklace is still yours! Brother Chen really kept his word, he truly loves you!" Jiang Shiyi couldn't contain her excitement.

Hearing her words, Yu Wei couldn't help but smile slightly.

On stage, the host scanned the audience's reactions and chuckled, "Anyone else bidding? If not, then this necklace belongs to Mr. Song?"

Silence fell over the hall.

The host's smile widened, and he was just about to raise his hand to make the decision when, unexpectedly, a faint, cool voice came from the western corner.

"Eight million and one thousand."

"..."

Eight million...and one thousand?!

Isn't this 10,000... a bit too deliberate?

Anyone with half a brain could tell that the bidder was doing it on purpose.

Song Yuchen, Yu Wei, and Jiang Shiyi all looked in that direction almost instantly.

The others in the hall also sighed and began to search for the person who made the bid, following the sound.

Fang Li stood in the crowd and slowly raised her head.

The dim light only illuminated half of her profile, but even half of it was breathtakingly beautiful.

She looked calmly at the host on stage and said softly, "No matter how much he bids, I will always bid 10,000 more than him."
