“What does this have to do with Gu Yanzhe? This is my style. It’s fine as long as
I like it. Sister, don’t you think I’m more charming like this?”
As she spoke, Chu Yunxuan turned her head to look at Wen Xin and blinked her big eyes adorned with blue eyeshadow and pink eyelashes.
Wen Xin was speechless. She turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window. She felt that the view outside was more beautiful.
Chu Yunxuan and Wen Xin walked into the auction house together. Chu Yunxuan took out a black card and handed it to the security personnel at the door. Soon, someone led them to their private room.
Wen Xin lowered her head and focussed on her phone, controlling the character in the game, completely ignoring the gazes of the people around.
Wherever she walked, everyone’s gaze was focused on her. They couldn’t help but feel that this naturally beautiful woman had features so stunning that it made them question their own lives.
Wen Xin walked into the private room and sat down on the sofa. She leaned back on the couch with her head tilted and legs crossed. She looked like a big boss, lazy and undisciplined.
Chu Yunxuan looked at Wen Xin’s attitude and sat down on the sofa beside her. She laughed lightly, “With your current appearance, you’re simply like an ignorant and incompetent bad girl. Who would have thought that you’re a doll? No wonder everyone treats you like a blade of grass and wants to bully you as they please.”
Hearing Chu Yunxuan’s teasing, Wen Xin raised her head from the game. “Who cares about being a good person? If they know my trump card, I’ll be the one who’ll be upset, not the other way round.”
As she spoke, Wen Xin’s gaze landed on the big screen. His black eyes narrowed slightly, and she frowned slightly.
Chu Yunxuan followed his gaze and stared at the big screen with Wen Xin. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the big screen, her face was filled with confusion.
“What did you see?”
“What are the items for today’s auction? I think I saw someone from the Taros family.”
Chu Yunxuan frowned when she heard the Taros family mentioned. These people had not appeared since the energy of the ancient jade had been exhausted. They did not seem to be here for the Five Elemental Jade. Could it be that they were also interested in the Geng Corporation’s project?
Chu Yunxuan immediately stood up and asked the waiter outside for the auction list. She casually glanced at it before taking it into the private room and handing it to Wen Xin.
In the private room next door, Mu Csatsitting on the sofa in exhaustion. The corners of his eyes were slightly red, and he looked like he had not slept up at all.
Gu Yanzhe sat beside Mu Chengxi. He looked at Mu Chengxi, whose eyes were closed, and said softly, “Master Xi, Liang Luoyu said he would get the Geng family’s project no matter what. Now, the Geng family is desperate. He knew that this project would definitely disrupt the market if it were put up for auction, but he still took it out.”
“I’ve observed thaof the people who came today are here for this project.”
Gu Yanzhe was worried that Mu Chengxi would not give it his all to secure this project, so he rushed over from Beijing after receiving Liang Luoyu’s call.
Mu Chengxi understood the warning in Gu Yanzhe’s tone. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at Gu Yanzhe calmly. “The Geng family developed this project based on the original project. The development is not as perfect as you think. Even if the Liang Corporation buys it, there will still be many problems in the future.’
” I told Liang Luoyu to wait for the acquisition of the Geng Corporation so that he could acquire the entire company with the research and development personnel, not buy the project directly.”
Mu Chengxi raised his hand and rubbed his aching temples. He had a headache after sending Wen Xin home from school today. He did not know what was going on.
Gu Yanzhe was a little hesitant when he heard Mu Chengxi’s explanation. If he bought this project and had to carry the Geng Corporation’s potential in the future, he might as well just give up on this project.
I’ll call Liang Luoyu and ask for his opinion.”
As he spoke, Gu Yanzhe took his phone and left the room. Just as he walked out of the room, he saw Chu Yunxuan asking for an auction list from the waiter. She turned and walked into the private room next to theirs.
He glances at the screen before taking his phone downstairs to call Liang Luoyu.
“Next, this is our last item for today’s auction. It’s also the highlight of the day. It’s a project that the Geng Corporation has brought out. This is also the most special item we’ve auctioned since the opening of our auction house. The starting price is 1 billion.”
The auctioneer’s voice echoed from the surround sound system. Wen Xin lifted her head for a glance. The bidding had reached 1 billion yuan, which seemed like a reasonable price. She wondered which big fish Geng’s family could lure with this offer.
Wen Xin controlled her in-game character to pass through the crowd and killed all five of them in one go. She led her teammates to destroy the enemy’s crystal in one go, not giving the enemy a chance to breathe.
“What do you think of this project? Do you want to buy it for Yuan Junye to play with?” Chu Yunxuan smiled, half-jokingly and half-seriously, saying that she had seriously studied this project and that it had great potential.
“The Yuan Family wants this project, but the Yuan Family doesn’t belong to Yuan Junye yet, so there’s no need to let him get involved in this mess. We can just watch the show.”
Wen Xin’s black eyes were fixed on the big screen. She wanted to prove that she was not seeing things. The people from the Taros family appeared in the auction hall.
After about ten minutes, the auctioneer finished introducing the project. The auction house was filled with the sound of bidding. Wen Xin was secretly calculating what kind of price would be able to make up for the Geng Corporation’s losses.
“1.8 billion…” “Two billion…’ “2.5 billion…’ “Three billion…”
“3-5 billion…’
At this moment, the bidders’ voices reached a climax. At this moment, a person with a foreign accent suddenly said, “Six billion…”
When they heard ‘six billion’, the entire venue fell silent. The cameras and spotlights were all focused on one spot in the corner.
Wen Xin raised an eyebrow as she looked at the man in the corner. Her black eyes darkened. She had guessed correctly. Moore had appeared in Ice City.
Wen Xin stared at the big screen in the room without moving. She had come today because she was worried that the project would fall into the hands of foreigners.
“Why don’t we snatch it? Anyway, Moore still owes us a favor. If I step forward, Moore shouldn’t refuse, right?” Chu Yunxuan understood Wen Xin’s worries.
Wen Xin might not have much use for this project, but it shouldn’t fall into the hands of foreign parties without a fight.
“10 billion!”
Just as Wen Xin was hesitating, a clear and lazy voice came from the speaker.
Hearing the bid, the audience gasped. They had never expected this project to be auctioned at such a price. Even the organizers had not expected it..
