C159 The Auction Began

At nine o'clock in the evening, the dark night had engulfed the entire Cloud City.1

Within the city's most luxurious Century Excellent International Hotel, the banquet hall was decorated as an auction venue. It was brightly lit and there were no empty seats.

Guests in fragrant clothes and sideburns sat around the mahogany round table in twos and threes. From time to time, they would raise the number plates on the table.

The table was filled with champagne, red wine, and a sumptuous feast. However, these were guests with high social statuses. Obviously, they did not pay attention to eating, but on the screen, one by one, the auction items appeared on the screen.

Su Yuyan was currently sitting in the VIP seat in the middle of the hall. She was not interested in the auction items on the stage.

Under her husband's acquiescence and indulgence, she no longer pretended to be a reserved lady. Instead, she picked up the chopsticks and plates domineeringly, picked up a piece of sweet and sour fish, and buried her head in the food.

Nan Jinshen looked to the side and saw the woman eating obediently. She was like a cute kitten, lowering her furry head and eating happily.

His usually cold eyes only withdrew bit by bit at this moment, and it suffused a warm flowing light. This girl was his wife, and no matter how others looked at her, he would unconditionally condone her for the rest of her life.

Nan Jinshen smiled, picked up a glass of red wine, and casually took a sip. Then, with an indifferent expression, he chatted with the business tycoons at the banquet about some business matters.

Occasionally, he would also lower his head and pick up some delicious food and place it on his wife's plate. He hoped that she would eat more, grow more meat, and hug the fragrant and soft food.

Such a blatant display of affection deeply provoked Xie Hann, who was sitting in the corner. Now that he had lost his engagement with Su Yuyan, it made the old man of Xie family furious. He directly removed his position on the board of directors.

Furthermore, he was plagued by scandal, and his reputation was in shambles. All the people in the wealthy families were afraid of him. In just one or two months, he had fallen from the high and mighty young master of the Xie family to the position where he was completely ignored. He was not willing to give up.

All of this was caused by Su Yuyan. His eyes were fixed on Su Yuyan, and his entire face darkened. Even if he didn't love this woman, he would personally take her back to his side and torture her for the rest of his life...

He sneered and stared at the figure in the blue dress from afar. His hands were coldly inserted into the pocket of the suit and he sat on the chair. He looked like a well-dressed woman. However, his eyes that were smiling yet not smiling revealed an exceptionally cold chill.

Su Yuyan, who was in the middle of the banquet, did not notice the hungry wolf that was secretly staring at her. She did not care about other people's gazes and directly filled her stomach. Then, she picked up a cup of orange juice with satisfaction and burped lightly.

The sound of bidding rose and fell. Many people had already started to eat their chopsticks. Only Shen Qingwu sat on the chair, maintaining her ladylike demeanor and did not move a single bite.

She looked at Su Yuyan with a pair of proud eyes and saw her every move. Her cold eyes tightened and a wave of disdain shot out.

Su Yuyan was speechless by her stare. She was wondering if she had offended this big miss or not. Suddenly, one of the items on the stage attracted her interest. It was the legendary Qing Dynasty royal family tribute dragon saliva fragrance that had disappeared for a long time.

"Everyone, this item in my hand is the number one item in the universe legend. The number one spice in China - dragon saliva fragrance. Its effects are extremely good, it was once the imperial tribute of the Qing Dynasty Emperor. Concentrated medicine, seasoning, calming the mind, beauty all over the body... It was a rare holy item that only appeared once in a thousand years. Regarding this peerless item, we are in a state of appraisal waiting to be asked. The starting bid for my authorization is 50 million - - -"

Before the auctioneer finished his sentence, someone raised his hand: [50 million]

"Alright, everyone, 50 million is available. Is there any higher bid?"

[51 million]

[52 million]
