Chapter 461 The Masked Good Girl Mistakenly Flirts with the Playboy Man 25
After Lin Yi called out the price of "51 million", the entire auction venue fell into a brief silence. The lazy female voice did not raise the price immediately, and seemed to be weighing the pros and cons.
The auctioneer stood on the stage, his eyes gleaming with a gleam, and he obviously realized that the bidding had entered a white-hot stage. He deliberately slowed down the pace, holding the auction hammer high in his hand, and was reluctant to drop it, as if he was waiting for a bigger surprise.
At the same time, the atmosphere in the compartment where the lazy female voice was located seemed a little solemn. A sexy woman in a purple cheongsam, Ji Yanru, was talking in a low voice with a serious-looking old man.
"Yanru, are you sure that the male voice just now was Master Yan?"
The old man frowned and stared at Ji Yanru, as if trying to find the answer from her expression.
Ji Yanru gently took a sip of the red wine in her hand, with a look of certainty in her eyes: "Although I have only met Master Yan once in London, I will not be wrong about his voice. Moreover, judging from Fatty Jin's performance, he would not have been able to bid so generously without the guidance of an expert."
The old man's expression became more solemn after hearing this. He turned his head to look at the jadeite rough stone on the auction table and whispered, "I'm not sure about this rough stone either. If it turns green, it will definitely be top-notch; but if it doesn't turn green, then it will be a total loss. The gambling nature is really too strong!"
Ji Yanru was silent for a moment, with a gleam of determination in her eyes: "I'll make another offer. If I can't get it, I'll have to admit defeat."
The auctioneer's eyes never left Ji Yanru's compartment, and the auction hammer in his hand was still raised high, reluctant to fall.
He deliberately dragged out his voice and shouted, "Fifty-one million, is there anyone who can offer a higher price?"
"Fifty-one million once, fifty-one million twice, fifty-one million..."
The auctioneer's voice echoed in the venue, as if waiting for a miracle to happen.
Just as the auction hammer was about to fall, Ji Yanru finally spoke again.
"Ninety million!"
This price was like a heavy bomb, instantly setting off the whole place. Lin Yi stared at the auction hammer in the auctioneer's hand, her eyes almost popping out, and she was extremely anxious. She had already cursed the auctioneer's nagging countless times in her mind, but the opposite happened. Ji Yanru's bid increase almost made her vomit blood.
"This woman must have done this on purpose!"
Lin Yi thought with gritted teeth. Lin Yi, who was burning with anger, could no longer hold back and shouted out loud as his mind got hot.
"One hundred million!"
As soon as the price was announced, the whole venue was in an uproar. The auctioneer's face showed an unconcealable joy. The happiness came so suddenly that he almost laughed out loud. The God of Wealth finally favored him, a wage earner!
"This lady has already offered 100 million. Is there anyone who can offer a higher price?"
There was some excitement in the auctioneer's voice, and his eyes were still wandering in the direction of Ji Yanru's compartment.
However, Ji Yanru's voice sounded again, with a bit of laziness and disappointment: "Stop shouting, you can hammer now, I'm out!"
Hearing this, Lin Yi was glad that everything was finally settled, but at the same time she felt extremely distressed.
A piece of broken stone made Lin Yi owe 100 million yuan. It was so heartbreaking!
Xie Yanci gently held Lin Yi's hand which was tightly grasping the railing, and whispered soothingly in her ear.
"Don't be angry. I can still afford 100 million for your husband. Your happiness is the most important thing!"
His voice was low and gentle, and the hot breath he exhaled sprayed on Lin Yi's earlobe, making her feel a current running through her body in an instant, and her ears were so red that blood almost dripped out.
Lin Yi complained gloomily, "I'm already 100 million in debt. Do you think I can be happy?"
Xie Yanci's lips curled up slightly, with a sly look in his eyes: "You can repay me in another way. You know what I want."
Lin Yi's face flushed instantly. She glared at Xie Yanci in shame and annoyance, and argued cunningly: "You are also responsible for this matter! That woman raised the price crazily because of your reputation. I was caught in the crossfire. You have to bear half of the responsibility!"
Xie Yanci chuckled, looking like a well-behaved husband, and nodded, "Okay."
Lin Yi was finally amused by him, and the gloom on her face disappeared.
At this time, the auctioneer had already announced the end of the auction. Xie Yanci took Lin Yi's hand and said softly, "Go get your spoils."
When the two turned around, they saw that Boss Jin had also stood up. Xie Yanci regained his usual aloofness and spoke to Boss Jin in a cold voice.
"Boss Jin, my wife and I are going back now. See you again if we are lucky enough!"
Boss Jin smiled and said, "Master Yan, I will treat you and your wife to a meal. What would your wife like to eat?"
Boss Jin could see that Master Yan's wife had him firmly in his hands. As long as Lin Yi agreed, Xie Yanci would never refuse. How many men could spend 100 million to win a woman's favor?
However, Lin Yi was so angry that she had no appetite, so she declined politely, "I'm tired today. I appreciate Boss Jin's kindness."
Boss Jin didn't force it. After all, he knew Xie Yanci's character. Apart from identifying cultural relics, Xie Yanci never had much contact with outsiders.
As soon as the three men walked out of the compartment, they ran into a charming woman in a purple cheongsam.
Tang Yuan immediately reported to Lin Yi in his mind: "Master, she is the woman who was bidding with you just now!"
Ji Yanru smiled slightly, her eyes wandering between Xie Yanci and Lin Yi, her tone was a bit teasing: "Boss Jin must be so influential that he actually invited Master Yan. No wonder he acted so decisively tonight."
After she finished speaking, she turned to Xie Yanci, smiled charmingly, and stretched out her slender jade hand: "Master Yan, I am honored to meet you once in London. I am Ji Yanru."
When Xie Yanci heard the name "Ji Yanru", he was slightly stunned, then politely shook her hand and nodded.
Ji Yanru turned to look at Lin Yi, with a meaningful smile in her eyes, and began to explain.
"Little sister, I'm not bidding against you with bad intentions. My goal in participating in the auction this time is that jadeite rough stone. I'm very optimistic about that jadeite rough stone. Ninety million is my final price."
After hearing this, Lin Yi couldn't help but look at Ji Yanru more. This woman was indeed very good at dealing with people. Her words were both graceful and difficult to refute.
However, Tangyuan's voice sounded in Lin Yi's mind again, with a hint of warning.
"Master, stop admiring her blindly. She is your love rival! She is the fiancée that Mr. Xie has chosen for Xie Yanci, and she is also the only daughter of Ji Guangliang, the largest jade merchant in the country!"
Lin Yi's heart trembled, and the smile on her face froze instantly. She looked at Ji Yanru with a little more vigilance and hostility.
