The room was in an uproar because of his arrogance and dominance. It’s as if he did not care about money. Most of them were talking among themselves, and the young man frowned and looked back.
He was a westerner with delicate features. He had short hair and brown eyes, and he looked unhappy.
Ye Ningyuan acted as if he did not see him and remained calm.
An Xunuo tugged his sleeves and said softly, “Daddy, I don’t want it anymore.”
Ye Ningyuan held her hands. “Silly lass.”
“Four hundred and fifty million,” the young man said with a slightly trembling voice. The lady beside him stared at An Xunuo in a ruthless manner, as if blaming her for snatching her necklace.
An Xunuo frowned. “Daddy, I want the necklace.”
Ye Ningyuan smiled. “Six hundred million!”
The young man gasped and his face became pale. The woman seemed to be mumbling something, but he no longer raised his sign. Not everyone could afford to spend so much money on a necklace.
And not every woman had the capability to let a man spend so much money.
Ye Ningyuan got the necklace in the end, and the lady beside the man stared at An Xunuo ruthlessly. Xunuo acted like she did not see her and ignored her. Ye Ningyuan continued to look through the items and asked her if she liked anything else.
An Xunuo supported her head and asked, “Daddy, am I too prodigal?”
He paused before saying, “I lack someone prodigal. Otherwise, no one will help me spend the money that I’ve earned. It would be good if you could spend until I become bankrupt.”
He suddenly remembered that he really lacked someone prodigal. His mommy was not prodigal albeit materialistic. Ye Hailan could get whatever she wanted herself and would definitely steal it with her auntie.
She believed that stolen things were more precious than those bought.
Even if they were prodigal sometimes, his daddy was there to pay for them. As for him, he had earned all the money in the world but could not find someone to help him spend it. Therefore, it was not a bad idea to have a prodigal woman.
“Really?” Xunuo’s eyes lit up and randomly pointed at the items. There were a jade bracelet, a hand-knitted dress, a jade sculpture, and a diamond necklace. “I want them all.”
“Sure!”
An Xunuo pointed at a total of six items, which happened to be the six items that were yet to be auctioned. Therefore, a miraculous scene happened at the auction house in which Ye Ningyuan bought everything.
Everyone that competed with him had lost and he bought all the items that An Xunuo liked.
Even the owner of the auction was shocked.
All the wealthy and noble people at the event were shocked too. Those who knew who he was could only shake their heads. He was so rich that he had come to London to flaunt his wealth. Indeed, he was from the Ye family.
Ye Ningyuan did not care. Half of the money earned from this auction would be donated to charity, so he could consider it as doing some charity work.
Ye Ningyuan gave a check when they were backstage and the items were given to him. The owner of the auction asked courteously, “Younger Master Ye, shall we send these to your house?”
All these items were expensive and would definitely be coveted, so they had the responsibility to send them to his house to ensure safety. Ye Ningyuan shook his head and said, “There’s no need to. There will be people to collect them later.”
He took the black gem necklace and put it on Xunuo. He could tell that this necklace was the only one that Xunuo really liked and the rest was only for fun.
“Does it look good?”
“It looks very good.”
He smiled and the owner placed the auctioned items into the safe again. Ye Ningyuan called Azure Dragon to send people there to collect the items. He then bid farewell to the owner and went out of the auction house holding Xunuo’s hand.
An Xunuo touched the necklace on her neck and smiled until her eyes were curved. It’s really pretty and she loved it.
Suddenly, a strong wind appeared from the side, and a long wooden stick struck through the sky, aiming at An Xunuo’s head. Ye Ningyuan held the stick and saw a big black guy. Ye Ningyuan snatched the stick and ruthlessly kicked the guy.
Ye Ningyuan was slightly angry.
How dared they attack Xunuo! There were four or five people that walked out from the side, and they were holding on to iron sticks and knives. All of them attacked Ye Ningyuan, but within seconds, all of them were defeated by Ye Ningyuan and were bleeding profusely.
They rolled and crawled as they tried to flee. A car drove past Ye Ningyuan, and the window was rolled down with a light flashing past. Ye Ningyuan suddenly moved and hugged Xunuo to avoid it.
A row of bullets created bullet holes on the car.
The car immediately drove away.
Ye Ningyuan sneered, whereas An Xunuo was still in shock and her face was pale. He got in the car with her and they drove away from the auction house. “Daddy, is there someone that wants to kill me?”
“No, I think we angered someone at the auction house just now, so they want to take revenge and snatch the black gem necklace from you.” Ye Ningyuan turned his head and smiled. Those were just some small fries.
“These people are so bad. They can’t afford to lose.” An Xunuo heaved a sigh of relief and wrinkled her nose.
Ye Ningyuan smiled. Indeed, they could not afford to lose.
They were too stupid for offending someone that they should not be messing with. Luckily, Xunuo was safe and sound. Otherwise, they would repay it ten times.
Ye Ningyuan raised his wrist to look at the watch and asked, “Where else do you want to go?”
“I’m so tired from all the walking today.”
“Then, shall we go home?”
“Sure!”
An Xunuo smiled. Ye Ningyuan slowed down the speed of the car so that she could enjoy the scenery of London. The phone rang. It was his auntie that called. Ye Ningyuan smiled and picked up the phone. “Auntie, you looking for me?”
“Hi, baby, guess where I am?”
“I don’t know.” Ye Ningyuan was decisive. “You must be traveling around with my cousin. Don’t tell me that my sister is with you too.”
“Brother, I’m here.” Ye Hailan’s voice traveled through the phone. “We’re in Egypt to rob the tomb. Our cousin said that she wanted to rob the tomb of the tallest pharaoh, so we’re researching about the map.”
Indeed…
“Just the three of you?”
Ye Wei’s seductive smile was still the same. “We ran into some small trouble, but the three of us are enough to settle it. Wushuang is to be blamed. This girl is getting more and more daring.”
Ye Ningyuan smiled. “Why did you call me when you’re busy robbing the tomb?”
Ye Wei laughed. “Baby, I heard that you’ve become a father now, so I called you to congratulate you. Do you want to ask the girl beside you to call me auntie?”
“How do you know she’s beside me?”
“Vermilion Bird said that the two of you are together twenty-four seven.”
