Chapter 1507: The Wen Yan Couple (42)

Dongfang Chu wilted and said weakly, “I’m not confident.”

Wen Ruoshui smiled and said, “It’s alright. Isn’t this just the beginning? There’s still time in the future. We can slowly figure it out.”

As long as this person was in China, no matter who he was, they would be able to find him. He could not have appeared out of nowhere!

At this moment, Dongfang Chu was conflicted. She did not know what she should do and had been secretly paying attention to the man in the VIP seats.

Before long…

!!

“Does he smile at everyone?” Dongfang Chu frowned and muttered, “Look, he’s even smiling at Yu’er! He even gave Yu’er water.”

Wen Ruoshui looked over. The man had a smile on his face as he passed a bottle of water to Yu’er. However, Huo Ci interrupted him halfway. After glaring at him warningly, he unscrewed the cap and drank it himself. After thinking for a while, he said, “He might know Huo Ci!”

“I don’t think so!” Dongfang Chu was also uncertain. “From their expressions and actions, this should be their first time meeting.”

“If this is the first time they’ve met, and he handed Yu’er water, it means that this person is kind-hearted on the surface.” Wen Ruoshui could not bear to see her so worried. “Besides, Yu’er is wearing a male outfit now. It’s impossible for him to tell that she’s a woman at a glance!”

Besides, there was Huo Ci in the middle. From the looks of it, Huo Ci was like a protective child. He was extremely arrogant and was just short of writing that he would kill whoever approached Yu’er.

Dongfang Chu could not take her heart back. She could not help but look in the man’s direction, but she was also afraid that she would be discovered if she was too blatant. She felt that she was frivolous, so she quickly looked away.

The previous items were all authentic, and just as what was promised, they were rare items that had appeared on the market for the first time.

Wen Ruoshui started to suspect that these things had just been unearthed and could not be exposed. That was why they were chosen to be auctioned at this time. They even made it so mysterious, afraid that the country would discover the illegally obtained items. Not only did they have to hand them over to the country, but they also had to be locked up!

When the host said “Tiger Mountain Painting”, the quiet scene immediately changed. Many people who had come in groups were whispering to each other. It seemed that many people had come for this.

Everyone who played with antiques knew the value of “Tiger Mountain Painting”. Even if they had not come for this painting, they wanted to bid and see if they were lucky enough to get it.

Dongfang Chu finally regained her senses and her soul returned to her body. She watched as the two ladies carefully took the painting out and placed it on the stage for the guests to see.

On the huge LCD screen on the stage, details of the painting were being shown. The details were extremely vivid to make it easier for the guests to observe.

“Is it authentic?” Dongfang Chu asked Wen Ruoshui softly.

Wen Ruoshui shook her head. “I don’t know either.”

The two of them were not appraisers, so how could they know if it was real or fake?

“The host said that it’s true. They’re in the antique auction industry. If they sell fake goods, won’t they be ruining their own reputation?” Dongfang Chu came for this reason. “They won’t sell fake goods. It must be real.”

Many people around them were amazed by the painting and said that it must be authentic.

The host took out the appraisal report. Dozens of top antique appraisers in China had accurately determined that it was Tang Yin’s work.

“Are you bidding?” Wen Ruoshui also felt that the auction house would not go so far as to use fake goods to fool others. If it was genuine work, no matter how much money was spent to buy it, it would be worth it.

“Yes!” Dongfang Chu decided immediately.

The starting price was 5 million, with an increase of 100,000.

“Five million.”

“10 million.”

“20 million.”

“50 million.”

The bidding was very intense at the start. The price jumped from five million to 10 million to 50 million. It was still rising, but after 50 million, the price increment was not that high anymore.

The buyers present were basically old hands. They were all sizing up the situation and testing the mental price of the bidders who wanted to bid like them.

When the bid reached 72.5 million, Dongfang Chu shouted for the first time, “75 million.”

“80 million.”

A female voice on the left raised her card and looked in the direction of Dongfang Chu and Wen Ruoshui with a vicious gaze.

Wen Ruoshui took a look. It was none other than Dongfang Xi. Why was she here? She also wanted to buy the “Tiger Mountain Painting” for Grandpa Dongfang’s birthday!

When Dongfang Chu saw her, she could not suppress her anger and gritted her teeth. “She’s courting death. She actually returned to the capital without Grandpa’s permission!”

Dongfang Xi had been sent to Grandpa’s hometown because she had hurt Shui Shui. Who was so bold as to let her go back to the capital? Wasn’t she afraid that Grandpa would find out?

“Don’t get agitated. Calm down.” Wen Ruoshui took another look at Dongfang Xi, her eyes cold.

She could return to the capital and even appear here. She did not believe that Grandpa Dongfang did not know anything. After all, she was his biological granddaughter. How could an outsider like her compare to the eldest daughter of the Dongfang Family?

Dongfang Chu did not think too much about it. She only held her breath. No matter what, she had to buy the painting. She could not let Dongfang Xi snatch it away to please Grandpa.

In the VIP seats, Nangong Lengyu was also anxious. She looked at Huo Ci and said, “Hurry up and think of a way. We can’t let Chu Chu and the others get it.”

Huo Ci had said that the painting was fake.

“Why should I help you?” Huo Ci gave her a casual look and leaned against the seat leisurely. Upon seeing that she was about to get angry, he added, “If I help you, how are you going to thank me?”

“What do you want?” Since Nangong Lengyu knew that the painting was fake, she could not let Chu Chu and the others waste a lot of money to bid for a fake.

Besides, she had seen Dongfang Xi just now. With Dongfang Xi around, Chu Chu would definitely be angered to death. If she wanted to compete with her, she would not care and would increase the price.

“You also know that I never help for free. Massage my shoulders and my back, as well as wash my clothes for a month.” Huo Ci raised his conditions.

He could still control her!

“One week!” Nangong Lengyu gritted her teeth, her eyes burning with anger.

Oh my god, how could there be such a person? He would die if he helped!

“I refuse to bargain. Do you think this is a market?” Huo Ci let out a snort and shrugged nonchalantly. “It’s fine if you’re unwilling.”

When Nangong Lengyu heard that Dongfang Chu had already raised the price to 100 million, she went all out. She glared at him ferociously. “I agree!”

Huo Ci’s lips curled up slightly. With the joy of having succeeded, he slowly raised the bidding card in his hand and shouted for the first time. “150 million.”

When Dongfang Chu saw Huo Ci, she frowned. Was he crazy? Why was he causing trouble?
