"Hey, sis, what do you know about that girl?" the young man with yellow hair asked, furrowing his brow. 0
 
"I don't know," Ivy replied, shaking her head. 0
 
"How can she be so rich?" the young man said, feeling frustrated. "The things she bought add up to almost five hundred million!" 0
 
"Mm," Ivy responded lightly. 0
 
"Sis, why aren't you surprised at all?" the young man asked curiously. 0
 
"What's there to be surprised about?" Ivy said calmly. "There are plenty of wealthy people in this world." 0
 
"Ugh, it's really frustrating," the young man sighed. 0
 
"Are you really thinking about competing with her for that guitar?" Ivy asked. 0
 
"Yeah," he nodded. 0
 
"There's no need," Ivy said. "That guitar is only worth around ten million. Even if you manage to win it, you'll still be at a loss." 0
 
"But I really like that guitar," the young man lamented. 0
 
"I'll help you out," Ivy suddenly said. 0
 
"You'll help me?" he asked, puzzled. "How will you do that?" 0
 
"I have my ways," Ivy replied. "You just need to listen to me and not raise your bid anymore." 0
 
"But..." The young man clearly didn't believe Ivy's words. 0
 
"Don't worry, I won't deceive you," Ivy assured him. "As long as you don't raise your bid, I can help you get that guitar." 0
 
"Alright." After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded. 0
 
"Rest assured, I'll make sure you get what you want," Ivy said with a smile as she patted the young man's shoulder. 0
 
After I finished bidding on a few items, I stopped participating in the auction. The young man and Ivy also refrained from raising their bids. 0
 
The auction continued, and while there were other items I liked, they weren't essential to me, so I chose not to bid again. 0
 
Finally, the auction reached its climax—the final item was a ring designed by the British Royal Family, adorned with hundreds of diamonds. 0
 
As soon as the ring appeared, it sparked a frenzy among the crowd. 0
 
 
In the end, the ring was sold for one hundred million. 0
 
"Thank you all for attending this auction," Zhou Zheng announced from the stage, his voice clear and resonant. "The auction will conclude in ten minutes. Please take a short break, and we will resume in ten minutes." 0
 
With that, Zhou Zheng stepped down from the stage. 0
 
Feeling bored, I took out my phone and started scrolling through Weibo. 0
 
Just as I was getting into it, a man suddenly blocked my view. 0
 
"Hello, miss," he said with a smile. 0
 
"Hello," I looked up and recognized him as the young man with yellow hair from earlier. 0
 
"My name is Ivan. What’s yours?" Ivan asked. 0
 
"My surname is Su," I replied. 0
 
"Miss Su, nice to meet you," Ivan said. "I’d like to ask you a question, if that's alright?" 0
 
"What question?" I regarded him warily. 0
 
"Please don’t misunderstand; I mean no harm," Ivan quickly added upon seeing my guarded expression. "I just wanted to know if you came here specifically for that auction item." 0
 
"What auction item?" I asked, puzzled. 0
 
"The guitar," Ivan clarified. 0
 
"And what if I did?" I countered. 0
 
"Could you tell me why you want to bid on that guitar?" Ivan inquired. 0
 
"I like it," I answered simply and directly. 0
 
"Just like it?" Ivan questioned skeptically. 0
 
"What else would it be?" I raised an eyebrow at him. 0
 
"You don’t seem like someone who simply likes that guitar," Ivan remarked. "Are you after something more?" 0
 
"I don’t know what you’re talking about," I said, feeling annoyed. 0
 
"Miss Su, please don’t take it the wrong way," Ivan explained. "I’m just curious; after all, your behavior seems a bit unusual." 0
