The Mad Heiress Played Innocent, and the Third Master Fell Hard - Chapter 52
Yu Guiwan ate very slowly. After Jiang Yuhuai peeled and ate a few shrimp, she didn’t feel like eating anymore.
She gave a soft “Mmm,” and said, “I don’t want to eat anymore.”
However, I still finished the bowl of soup.
Jiang Yuhuai frowned almost imperceptibly, took her bowl, and skillfully ate the remaining food.
“What dessert would you like tonight? I’ll have the kitchen make it.”
Yu Guiwan rested her chin on her hand, glanced down, and exclaimed, “Ah, Basque with salted egg yolk lava.”
It’s both sweet and salty, which makes it easier to stimulate the taste buds.
“Okay, I’ll have someone make it.”
Jiang Yuhuai glanced at Jiangdong.
Jiang Dong lowered his head, then took out his phone and notified the kitchen.
It didn’t take long.
The auction began.
I’ve seen many auctions in Jiangxi before.
However, this was his first time attending an underground auction in Beijing.
He and Jiang Dong sat in a corner, talking quietly.
Yu Guiwan seemed to have never been here before, looking down with curious eyes.
Jiang Yuhuai finished the remaining food in her bowl and then put down his chopsticks.
His gaze also turned in that direction, and he asked, “Do you like this?”
The first item up for auction was a piece of jade of exceptional glass-like quality.
The starting bid is over a million.
Yu Guiwan was not in high spirits, saying, “It’s easy to break.”
A casual tap can wipe out hundreds of millions.
She wasn’t that wasteful.
Jiang Yuhuai nodded. “Then let’s take another look.”
I looked at several auction items, all of which were jewelry.
Until one item, a rough diamond.
It’s not very big, about the size of an egg yolk.
It doesn’t look like it weighs fifty carats.
Because it is a ruby.
A commotion erupted below.
It’s clear that quite a few people really want to take pictures.
Rubies are already scarce.
Every one dug up is one less to be found.
It’s such a big one right now, and it’s still uncut.
It’s no surprise that many people are eyeing it.
Most of them were women.
Or perhaps it’s a gift for a woman.
The starting bid remains at two million.
The bidding below was very intense.
In no time, the price had soared to eight million.
Jiang Yuhuai tilted his head and asked her, “Do you want it?”
Yu Guiwan remained silent for a moment, before she could speak.
The man had already pressed the auction bell.
A man’s voice rang out from inside the private room.
“Mr. Jiang.”
Jiang Yuhuai’s voice was deep, “Ten million.”
“yes.”
The bidder called out: ten million.
Yu Guiwan: “…”
She looked at the man with a helpless expression. “It’s a stone.”
It’s useless except for looking at it.
Jiang Yuhuai squeezed her hand. “I think it suits you very well. Let’s take a picture and use it as a birthday present for you, okay?”
Her birthday is in early autumn.
In a season filled with sorrow.
Yu Guiwan looked at him, her peach blossom eyes deep and complex.
Her birthday is easy to remember.
It happened on the day of the Autumn Equinox.
But no one ever remembers.
Yu Mingsheng did not.
Cheng Xiang didn’t have it either.
Apart from Grandma Wang and the others, no one remembers.
But now, he actually knows.
How did he know?
Yu Guiwan had countless questions in her mind.
But in the end, only one word was uttered.
“good.”
She also wanted to see what the gift prepared especially for her birthday would look like.
Jiang Yuhuai smiled, pressed the bell again, and continued to call out the price.
The previous person shouted 15 million.
He directly asked for 20 million.
At this point, the people below silently put down the cards they were holding.
They’re even speculating about who the buyer is.
They spent nearly ten times the price just for a diamond.
Unfortunately, the auction keeps the guests’ information strictly confidential.
However, after tonight, rumors began to circulate in the capital that an unknown young master from a prominent family had spent millions just to win a smile from a beautiful woman.
The auction is still ongoing.
Twenty minutes later, the Soul-Soothing Orchid appeared.
Jiang Yuhuai suppressed his smile and narrowed his eyes slightly.
He pressed the bell and instructed the auctioneer to bid for the flowerpot at all costs, no matter the price.
The other party respectfully agreed.
Yu Guiwan looked down casually.
It was that potted plant that was accurate.
The Requiem Orchid, as its name suggests, has a calming effect on the soul.
Both its branches, flowers, and leaves can be used in medicine.
The best part for calming the soul is its petals.
Even its subtle fragrance can help people who suffer from sleep problems to get a good night’s sleep.
The moment the Requiem Orchid appeared.
The atmosphere at the auction reached its peak.
Everyone saw the auction list before the auction began.
I also learned the starting price of the Requiem Orchid.
One hundred million.
If it weren’t absolutely necessary, I doubt anyone would spend 100 million to buy a pot of flowers, right?
The staff, instructed by Jiang Yuhuai, kept bidding.
No one shouted from below.
Those bidding were all sitting in the private rooms.
Besides Jiang Yuhuai bidding, others were also pressing the price higher.
The other person seems to really want this plant.
The bid has already reached nearly 200 million.
Jiang Yuhuai always bids ten million.
The other party has an extra five million.
The people below were all watching the spectacle.
I’m really curious to know who ended up with this potted plant.
The auction reached a fever pitch.
The sound came from the private room again.
They are staff members of the auction.
The other party said, “Sir, the guest in VIP room number 8 would like to ask if you could reluctantly give up this potted plant to her. She said she is willing to provide experimental drugs from the Peking University laboratory for you to choose from.”
Jiang Yuhuai’s eyes were icy cold, and his words were anything but polite.
What is she?
Just six words.
The staff remained silent.
The other party seemed to fall silent as well.
Then, the private room fell silent.
Yu Guiwan glanced at the man beside her and blinked.
Jiang Yuhuai looked at her and coughed lightly, “Is there a problem with my question?”
That’s how it is.
What kind of guest?
What is it?
Make him reluctantly part with it?
It’s impossible in the next life.
Jiangdong and Jiangxi: “…”
Yu Guiwan: “…”
She paused for a few seconds, then said, “No problem.”
Jiang Yuhuai nodded, “That’s good.”
The auction is still ongoing.
Finally, it was sold for 280 million.
Now that he had captured what he wanted, Jiang Yuhuai didn’t want to stay any longer.
I instructed the staff to have them deliver the items.
The staff respectfully brought in the two items.
Then he said, “Third Master Jiang, our boss said that the money for these two auction items today will be charged to his account as a congratulatory gift for Third Master Jiang’s wedding.”
Jiang Yuhuai narrowed his eyes slightly, a glint of dark light flashing in them, his aura imposing.
He casually tapped the armrest of the chair. “Really? I don’t need that little bit of money. Besides, your boss is really insincere.”
Using what he bought as a gift?
