Chapter 5: Charity Auction

The charity dinner downstairs is about to begin, and all the guests have taken their seats.

Qi Yue sat next to Ji Xingchen and stared at her mouth for several seconds: "Xingxing, why is your mouth swollen?"

Ji Xingchen was feeling depressed when he did not get any favors from Lu Yanbei but was treated lightly.

Hearing this, he said casually: "I'm allergic."

Qi Yue had a strange look on her face, but she didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she gloated: "Just wait and see the good show later."

"Tonight's charity auction is organized by President Ji, and we..." The host came on stage and said a speech of thanks, and then entered the theme of today's entire banquet.

Anyone here who is not a business person knows that this is a charity auction. Firstly, it will not only offend Ji Rusong's face, but secondly, it will have to establish a positive image for himself and his company.

Therefore, some of the exhibits are worth a lot of money when auctioned.

"Lot 039 is xi

Master g-c's final work was donated by Mrs. Gu, with a starting price of 500,000..."

The auctioneer on the stage was introducing the auction items, but Ji Xingchen and Qi Yue looked at Ji Ran who was not far away.

Sure enough, Ji Ran raised the sign, "1 million!"

"1.1 million!"

"1.15 million!"

Many people in the industry admire this mysterious Xi

g-c, the bidding price is continuously refreshed.

When the price reached 3.5 million, Ji Xingchen winked at Qi Yue, indicating that it was time to take action.

Qi Yue immediately held up a sign: "Five million."

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but turn to it. It was just a painting, but it actually fetched five million. This was not a posthumous work. Many people put down their signs.

Ji Ran was not to be outdone: "Six million!"

Didn't Ji Xingchen like this painting and vowed to get it? Then she would raise the price to a sky-high price! She wanted to see if the Lu family would be partial when they learned that Ji Xingchen, a prodigal, spent a sky-high price to buy a broken painting.

she!

She wanted Lu Yanbei to see Ji Xingchen's face clearly. What else could this vase do besides spending money?

Ji Ran's bid was not false at all. She knew Ji Xingchen very well. Ever since she was little, she had to get whatever she liked, and it would definitely be the same this time! No matter how high the price she shouted out, Ji Ran would always get it.

The stars will follow!

When the price reached 10 million, Ji Ran's little sister pulled her sleeve worriedly: "Ranran, why not forget it."

Ji Ran snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Do I, Ji Ran, seem to be short of ten million?"

The bidding price quickly reached 25 million.

Fu Jinbai raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the calm man beside him: "This Xi

What kind of charm does g-c have that can make these two sisters from the Ji family fight so hard over a painting?"

Lu Yanbei paused while adjusting his cufflinks, then looked through the crowd and landed on the girl wearing a cheongsam.

He said "tsk" without looking back, and said indifferently: "Someone is going to be unlucky."

Fu Jinbai glanced at Lu Yanbei thoughtfully: "Could it be that little goblin in your family who is up to something else?"

Fu Jinbai is the eldest son of the Fu family. Now the leader of the Fu family, he is also considered a friend of Lu Yanbei, and he has some understanding of his lovely wife.

She has a beautiful appearance, but a very arrogant personality. She will be repaid with anger, like a wild rose covered with thorns.

Lu Yanbei buttoned up his cufflinks slowly and said nothing.

Fu Jinbai asked again: "Where are your gold-rimmed glasses that never leave your hand?"

This time Lu Yanbei spoke, with a faint smile in his eyes: "I was scratched by a kitten."

Fu Jinbai thought that this cat was too wild.

"Forty-five million!" Ji Ran's bid was no longer as confident as before, but she still comforted herself that Ji Xingchen would definitely follow. She has followed now, hasn't she?

Qin Li's expression changed when Ji Ran shouted out the price, but as the organizer of this charity auction, her every move was under the camera, so it was not easy for her to remind Ji Ran.

Now we can only hope that Ji Xingchen will continue to follow, otherwise how could the mother and daughter have so much cash!

Qi Yue asked Ji Xingchen with her eyes: "Are you still following?"

Ji Xingchen waved his hand: "That's almost it."

So Qi Yue did not bid this time.

There was a brief silence in the banquet hall, and the auctioneer struck the first hammer.

Ji Ran's hands were sweating, and her whole body was shaking uncontrollably. She looked towards Ji Xingchen, who lowered his head and fiddled with his phone, as if it had nothing to do with him.

The little sister beside her said anxiously: "What should I do, Ranran? Ji Xingchen doesn't seem to be planning to follow."

Ji Ran glared at her: "Shut up!"

As the third hammer sounded, the auctioneer announced the result: "Congratulations to our Miss Ji Ran for successfully bidding on this item!"

Ji Ran felt that all the blood in her body was rushing up. She was angry and scared. If she still didn't know that she was following Ji Xingchen's tricks, then she would be really a fool!

She looked at Ji Xingchen angrily, wanting to tear her into pieces.

Ji Xingchen liked the way Ji Ran couldn't stand her and couldn't beat her. She showed a victorious smile and gave Ji Ran a middle finger: garbage.

Ji Ran stood up suddenly, the chair scratched the ground and made a lot of noise, and everyone's eyes turned to him.

The circle of wealthy families is so large. Everyone has heard more or less about the Ji family, and everyone knows that Ji Ran is not Ji Rusong's biological son.

In this current situation, no matter how stupid you are, you can understand the mystery behind it.

I'm afraid this Miss Ji Er simply doesn't have that much money to hand over.

The sympathy of rich people is not that broad, and most of them just take it as a joke.

Ji Ran felt like the gazes around her were like invisible needles piercing her skin. She had never been so embarrassed and humiliated as she was today.

She has received a lot of cold looks over the years. Everyone says that Ji Xingchen is the daughter of the Ji family. She has the same surname as Ji. Why should she be shorter?

So she will fight for everything, as long as it is something Ji Xingchen owns or something Ji Xingchen likes, she will fight for it!

But it backfired every time. Just like now, everyone's mocking eyes seemed to tell her: Don't pretend if you don't have money.

The more Ji Ran thought about it, the angrier he became. Just when he was about to speak, he saw Qin Li's warning eyes from the corner of his eye, so he had to sit back again. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only swallow his anger and grievance.

Seeing Ji Ran frustrated, Ji Xingchen's originally unhappy mood improved a lot, and he even had the time to discuss the blue ocean diamond that was the finale.

"This diamond is really beautiful, big and shiny, I like it."

Qi Yue said: "It is said that the starting price is very high, so let's do what we can."

Zhou Minglang added: "It's just a diamond, how high can it be? Don't worry, Xingxing. I'll get it for you within 10 million."

Ji Xingchen: "Okay, as expected of Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou is so grand!"

Zhou Minglang received praise and was very motivated.

Directly offer a price that is double the starting price: "Six million."

Zhou Minglang shouted loudly, and someone shouted even higher.

"Seven million."

"Twelve million."

"..."

Seeing that the price continued to refresh, Zhou Minglang was like a frustrated ball: "Xingxing, your uncle Zhou has been very strict recently, and I can't bear the burden on my wallet. I'll give you a farewell next time."

Ji Xingchen originally didn't expect Zhou Mingliang to buy it for her, so he comforted him: "It's okay, I'll take the photo myself."

After saying that, she raised the sign in her hand. Before the price was called out, a cold and indifferent voice sounded on the field.

"Twenty million."
