She had originally thought that the precious item was as good as hers, but unexpectedly, she lost her chance. She was the first to place a bid, having offered over four hundred thousand, but she never anticipated that someone would compete with her.
This yellow gemstone was something she had pledged to acquire for Yuan Tian; she had to secure it. Now, having already bid four hundred thousand, she had exceeded her expected price. Moreover, this money wasn't coming from her own pocket but from the man beside her.
Although the man treated her well and was willing to spend money, there were limits to his generosity.
Yuqing heard another man's voice coming from the private room upstairs and gritted her teeth. Who was up there? Why did they have to compete with her?
As she pondered this, she began to act coyly towards the man. He seemed somewhat displeased, but upon seeing Yuqing's face, he prepared to raise his bid once more. Just then, someone nearby whispered a reminder:
"Mr. Huang, do you know who is in that private room upstairs?"
The man paused for a moment. "Who?"
He rarely attended auctions and naturally didn't know about these things.
"Sheng Dong from Chuangsheng Group."
Upon hearing this, the man's expression changed, and he began to hesitate. The Sheng family... perhaps it was better to back off.
"I won't bid anymore," he decided.
Seeing that the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Yuqing anxiously tugged at the man's sleeve.
He frowned and said, "Let's forget about this one. If you like yellow gemstones, I can buy you something else."
In his eyes, a yellow gemstone like this would fetch at least twenty thousand on the market. If it weren't for Yu Qi's fondness for it, he wouldn't be foolish enough to spend that much on an auction.
Yu Qi was getting anxious. However, the other yellow crystals were not what Yuan Tian wanted; they couldn't demonstrate her sincerity!
Just then, the auctioneer's hammer came down heavily.
"Going three times, sold!"
Yu Qi's face turned pale. Had it really been bought by someone else just like that?! What was she supposed to do now?
She turned away, clearly angry with the man.
Soon, the yellow crystal was delivered to the private booth.
Ruan Fu Xi looked at the turmeric crystal placed on the table and smiled. Then she turned to Sheng Yan Zhou and said, "Why did you interrupt me just now?"
Sheng Yan Zhou affectionately patted her head. "I was going to buy it for you."
Of course, it was him who would bid for it.
Ruan Fu Xi felt a bit happy but then blinked and said, "But my brother also transferred money to me, saying it's from him as a gift."
Sheng Yan Zhou recalled that brother-in-law who seemed to guard her like a wolf and said to Ruan Fu Xi, "Sweetheart, this is from me for you. Your big brother can use his money to buy something else."
