CEO Never Stops Loving Her - C128
When Madam Jing saw Lingxuyao and Jiang Shuxia coming over, she stood up gracefully and greeted them, “I heard some news previously and thought it was a rumor. I never thought that you two would actually become a couple.
Lingxuyao pursed his lips, but did not comment.
Madam Jing seemed to be very familiar with Lingxuyao and did not care about his attitude at all. Instead, she looked at Jiang Shuxia with interest for a few more moments.
Jiang Shuxia slightly nodded as she felt awkward from being watched, “Hello, Madam Jing. We meet again.”
“Don’t call me that. You’re Xu Yao’s girlfriend. You can also call me Aunt Jing!”
Although there were some bad rumors, this girl was neither humble nor haughty. Her attitude was sincere and her words and actions were proper. She was a good girl.
Seeing Lingxuyao nod towards her, Jiang Shuxia finally opened her mouth to call her Aunt Jing.
At the door, Jiang Linfan walked in with the auction invitation card in her hand. She was dressed in a long dress, revealing her figure to the public.
Jiang Linfan had a proud smile on her face as she walked in with big strides.
Madam Jing took a glance and retracted her gaze to ask Jiang Shuxia, “This is your younger sister?”
Jiang Shuxia nodded her head.
“So you haven’t received my invitation?” Madam Jing frowned in displeasure, “What happened to Jiang Yu? A stepdaughter is actually going to beat me up! ”
Everyone present were all legal heirs to famous businesses, whether they were rich or noble. Jiang Linfan, this kind of stepdaughter who popped up on the way here, who was not the successor to Jiang’s, how could she have the qualifications to appear here?
Jiang Shuxia didn’t know how to reply. The invitation was naturally sent to the Jiang family, and she had been staying at Lingxuyao’s place all this time.
Her relationship with the Jiang family was so stiff that it was normal for Jiang Yu to not notify her. However, he did not expect that he would actually let Jiang Linfan come.
At this kind of occasion, everyone knew what it meant for Jiang Linfan to appear here, and the changes were very subtle.
Lingxuyao held her shoulders tighter and looked towards Madam Jing, “Aunt Jing, the auction is about to begin.”
It was almost time, and everyone was almost here. Madam Jing frowned and looked at Jiang Linfan, then retracted her gaze, “Let’s take a seat.”
With the help of an assistant, Jiang Linfan found her seat. Coincidentally, she could directly see Jiang Shuxia sitting in the first row from this angle.
Jiang Linfan suddenly clenched her teeth. The better Jiang Shuxia was, the more unwilling she was to accept the humiliation, so why should she be alright?
She clearly didn’t have the invitation card, but she was actually able to openly sit at the most conspicuous place in the first row. What right did she have?!
After biting her lips, Jiang Linfan’s teeth left a deep mark on her lower lip.
They were all people from the business community, and many of them knew a thing or two about it, so they naturally knew of Jiang Linfan.
Putting aside her position as a stepdaughter, she was still very pretty. Adding to that, she wore a long dress that fit her well, and her figure made many people drool.
The host at the scene walked up, “Thank you all for attending this auction. Now, let me announce the official start of the auction!”
The first item to be auctioned was a Peacock Chest Needle with a diamond inlay. It was beautifully designed and sold for 3 million.
After the host’s introduction, the diamond on this brooch was worth more than several tens of millions. It was created by an international master, and the market price had already exceeded 100 million.
“Three million five hundred thousand!”
“4 million!”
“…”
The price grew quickly and soared all the way.
Lingxuyao looked at the lady beside him: “Do you like it?”
Jiang Shuxia curled her lips, wasn’t this nonsense! Women never had much resistance to these things.
However, these were all luxury goods and not necessities. Even if they were not, they would still be the same.
“I like it, but I think there’s something else I like more down there!”
Lingxuyao smiled, “Tell me anything you like!”
“Got it!” Jiang Shuxia raised his eyebrows, “I won’t help you save money!”
“Seventy million going once, seventy million going twice, deal!” With the strike of the hammer, the first transaction came to an end.
The next few products were all sold smoothly as they were all sold at high prices. The atmosphere at the scene was very high.
This was Jiang Linfan’s first time at this kind of auction, and she was a little scared by the auction’s price, hence she didn’t dare to raise her hand anymore and just sat there.
There were also a group of rich young mistresses surrounding him, some talking while others laughing, except for Jiang Linfan.
“The stepdaughter is the stepdaughter. She didn’t even dare to raise her tablet. It seems like she didn’t bring any money with her when she went out!”
“Hahaha …”
Their merciless taunts made Jiang Linfan’s face burn.
“That’s right, the real successor is sitting in the first row, and she, as an impersonator, is only here to get a glimpse of the scene. How could she have the chance to shout out a price!?”
Jiang Linfan’s face turned red, then white, she wanted to retaliate but she didn’t dare. These people were all young mistresses with status, and were not people she could afford to offend.
Halfway through the auction, Jiang Shuxia glanced behind him and coincidentally met with Jiang Linfan’s gaze that was filled with resentment.
She smiled and looked away.
The smile on his face became very dazzling in Jiang Linfan’s eyes, as if he was purposely provoking her.
She did her best to suppress the anger in her heart, so she didn’t stand up and scold him.
Next, she wanted to buy something so that she could prove that she was really here to participate in the auction. However, the higher the price of the items, the more afraid she was to take action.
Similarly, Jiang Shuxia and Lingxuyao had been steadily sitting at their seats, not bidding for anything.
Finally, the last item was sold. A heart-shaped diamond ring shining with a blue light attracted a lot of exclamations as soon as it was revealed.
Seeing Jiang Shuxia’s eyes lit up, the corner of Lingxuyao’s mouth slightly moved, and without hesitation, he opened his mouth, “Fifty million!”
The entire auction place was in an uproar, there was no starting price for this item. Lingxuyao immediately offered 50 million, which was equivalent to raising the price to 50 million. He was indeed worthy of being called a rich man.
After a few seconds of silence, someone finally spoke up, “Wu Qianqian!”
Everyone’s eyes turned to look at the person who called out the price. It was Jiang Linfan, she had also taken a fancy to this diamond ring, and more importantly, this was the last item to be auctioned.
Just as he finished speaking, Lingxuyao opened his mouth again, “100 million!”
The scene was in an uproar again!
The host looked at Jiang Linfan who was seated in the back row with a smile, “Mr. Ling bids one hundred million. Young miss, do you still want to increase the bid?”
Everyone was looking at her, causing her to blush. She wanted to bid, but a hundred million was too much for her. Any higher bids would be crazy!
Gritting her teeth, she waved her hand, indicating that she would no longer bid.
It wasn’t worth it to pay such a huge price for a single breath. She hadn’t lost all sense of reason yet.
“100 million, is there anyone willing to bid?” The host did the final confirmation with a face full of smiles.
“150 million!” A cold male voice came from behind.
Jiang Shuxia turned to look, it was another person she recognized, Shen Congan.
Based on her understanding of Shen Congan, since he had already made a bid, he would not stop so easily.
Pulling on Lingxuyao’s arm, he shook her head, indicating that he didn’t want this ring anymore, let him have it. There was no need to waste so much money.
Lingxuyao patted her hand to reassure her, and then spoke once again with determination, “Three hundred million!”
As expected, Shen Congan also increased the bid, “350 million!”
The two people called out their prices alternately. Soon, the price had risen to five hundred million.
Shen Congan calmly stood up from the chair, his clothes did not seem to hold back, “Six hundred million!”
Lingxuyao was also expressionless, as if all the money was paper, he did not mind at all.
Seeing that Lingxuyao wanted to increase the price again, Jiang Shuxia couldn’t pull his arm back anymore. In a moment of desperation, she directly leaned over and kissed his lips.
Lingxuyao’s eyes carried a smile, and enthusiastically responded to her kiss. As the two of them acted as if no one else was present, Shen Congan’s face finally changed.
In such a public occasion, Lingxuyao did not go overboard. After half a minute, he let go of her unsatisfied, and his eyes were filled with love.
A mature man and a flirtatious woman. They were dazzling like a golden couple.
Due to the lack of oxygen, Jiang Shuxia’s breathing became rapid, she blushed and hooked her arm with Lingxuyao, “Let’s go!”
Lingxuyao smiled, and gave her a deep glance, “Alright!”
After greeting Madam Jing, Lingxuyao pulled her away from the auction venue.
The last item on the stage was sold for a high price of six hundred million, and the winner was Shen Congan, who stood there with his eyes and mouth agape.
Originally, Shen Congan wanted to piss Lingxuyao off. He knew that with Lingxuyao’s personality and wealth, he would definitely not let go of things that he fancied, especially when there were people provoking him.
He had originally planned to raise the price a little, so that Lingxuyao would spend more wronged people.
Xi An sat at the side, watching as Lingxuyao and Jiang Shuxia walked away, holding hands. He had a gloating smile on his face, “You dug your own hole and jumped in it, you really deserve it!”
Shen Congan angrily glared at her, “In the end, how did I offend you? Is it fun to go against me all day long? ”
“Yeah, it’s quite interesting!” Xi An was not the least bit angry, “I like to see you humiliated!”
“You …” Could it be that he had committed too many sins in his previous life that he was willing to lay his hands on this woman?
If it weren’t for the fact that he wanted to get rid of the endless blind date arranged by his family, he wouldn’t have agreed to have a couple with this crazy woman!
Xi An lifted up his bangs, and his beautiful eyes looked at him with a smile, “To spend six hundred million just to get jealous, Young Master Shen is really rich! Is the money enough? Do you want me to lend you some? ”
“You shut up!” Shen Congan lowered his voice in front of so many people, he really wanted to strangle this woman, “Xi An! If you don’t speak, no one will treat you as a mute! “
