Of course, Chen Xiuqi didn’t know what she was thinking . Smiling, he asked her, “Then, should I buy it?”
“Of course!” She nodded and said in a sweet voice .
You have to buy it, it’s an important prop for your proposal! You can’t let anyone else take it!
“Okay . ” Chen Xiuqi looked at her longing expression . His smile deepened as he promised, “I’ll take it down . ”
How confident of him!
Su Yaya was very happy . She fisted one hand and encouraged him . “Yeah! Good luck!”
Chen Xiuqi laughed, thinking she was worried he wouldn’t be able to win the sapphire . He took her hand and said calmly, “Don’t worry, that sapphire will be mine . ”
She looked at him . She felt more excited than worried . This was the sapphire he bought in the original story . Hurry, hurry! Once he obtained the sapphire, the storyline would be halfway complete .
On the stage, the host announced that the minimum bidding price was 1 . 6 million, and each bid must be an increase of at least 100,000 .
“1 . 6 million, going once!”
Then someone bid, “1 . 7 million . ”
Someone else immediately shouted, “1 . 8 million . ”
“1 . 9 million . ”
“2 million . ”
The price rose higher and higher until only two bidders remained .
Chen Xiuqi had been sitting in his seat like an old god . He didn’t even blink, let alone bid .
One bidder shouted, “4 . 2 million . ”
Su Yaya hurriedly pulled on Chen Xiuqi’s sleeve . “Why aren’t you bidding?”
He looked at her calmly . “Wait . There’s no need to rush . ”
His words had just fallen when the other bidder shouted another price .
“4 . 4 million!”
The previous bidder paused . After his female companion said something to him, he gritted his teeth and added another 200,000 .
“4 . 6 million!”
The host called out, “4 . 6 million, going once!”
The opposing bidder begrudgingly added another 100,000 .
“4 . 7 million!”
The price was already very high . The host took in the situation and began to call .
“4 . 7 million, going once!”
“4 . 7 million, twice!”
“Four hundred…”
“4 . 8 million!” Finally, another 100,000 was added . His opponent decided to give up .
At this point, the audience was sure that the sapphire would be sold for 4 . 8 million .
However, right when the host was about to start calling…
Chen Xiuqi, who was sitting in the middle of the front row, raised his card . The number was too small to see, but everyone heard him say, “5 . 2 million!”
5 . 2 million!
His words stunned the whole audience into silence .
4 . 8 million was already much higher than what the sapphire was worth, yet Chen Xiuqi raised the bid by a whole 400,000!
The other bidder looked at the domineering Chen Xiuqi and simply gave up .
Chen Xiuqi was the one person nobody could afford to offend . It would be foolish to continue bidding against him .
Seeing that no one else was bidding again, the host smiled and announced, “5 . 2 million, going once!”
“5 . 2 million, twice!”
“5 . 2 million, three times!”
“Sold! This Kashmir sapphire has been won by Mr Chen Xiuqi for 5 . 2 million! Congratulations!”
The audience began to whisper as soon as the announcement was made . Some people congratulated Chen Xiuqi while others whispered about his generosity . Of all the people present today, he possessed the most wealth and he spent 5 . 2 million on a mere sapphire . Some speculated that he was planning to cut a ring out of it and propose to Su Yaya .
Su Yaya heard some of their whispers and laughed on the inside . She wanted to tell them they were wrong . He wasn’t going to propose to her . He was going to propose to An Yutong!
The author has something to say…
Su Yaya: He’s not going to propose to me . He’s going to propose to An Yutong!
Chen Xiuqi: *coughs up blood*
