"So it's that Fu Zicong!"
The chatter in the venue was quite loud. Even sitting in a box, Fu Shan could hear everything.
Hearing this, he raised an eyebrow.
He was just wondering who this sudden bidder was.
It turned out to be the bored young master of the Fu family.
Thinking this, Fu Shan casually glanced at the Number Eight Box where Fu Zicong was, then quickly looked away.
And the person in the Number Two Box, whom everyone was gossiping about, not understanding their background or situation, was actually Fu Shan himself.
Cough.
He had prepared to bring Xu Yifei to this auction long ago.
Besides, with his money to pave the way, what was so strange about booking Number Two Box, which was only second to Number One Box?
"Hey, someone in Number One Box has raised their bid!"
Just as Fu Shan was thinking to himself, someone in the hall exclaimed.
The next second, someone in Number One Box next to Fu Shan raised their bid: "Ninety million!"
Everyone: "..."
The entire venue fell silent, followed by an uproar: "Good heavens, another one! There's another incredibly wealthy person participating in the bidding!"
"I've really seen something today. I always thought I was rich enough. Now, it seems there's always someone better. This final auction really brings together the big shots."
"Who's in Number One Box? I'm really curious. Who's got the guts to go head-to-head with Young Master Fu?"
Not just the people present, even Fu Shan couldn't help but glance sideways, curiously eyeing Number One Box next door. The door was tightly shut, so you couldn't see who was inside.
Fu Shan was also quite curious about who was in Number One Box.
This club's best box, and also the most expensive, was Number One Box.
Fu Shan, with the principle of giving Xu Yifei the best of everything, had originally wanted to book Number One Box.
However, he was told that Number One Box had been reserved a long time ago by someone else at a high price.
Therefore, Fu Shan had to settle for second best, reluctantly booking Number Two Box, which was only second to Number One Box, for himself and Xu Yifei.
At that time, Fu Shan was a bit puzzled about the identity of the person who had booked Number One Box.
Now, seeing that the other party had also joined the bidding for this Dragon-Phoenix Jade Pendant, and that their bids were also quite extraordinary, Fu Shan couldn't help but become even more curious.
It seems that today's auction will be quite intense.
But…
"One hundred million!"
Fu Shan's lips curled slightly as he raised his card again, speaking calmly.
With the rebate system in hand, he wouldn't lose.
And as soon as Fu Shan said this, the entire venue erupted in an uproar again.
"Heavens! One hundred million! The big shot in Number Two Box bid one hundred million!"
"The starting price was fifty million. It's only been a short while, and it's already been raised to one hundred million. Amazing!"
"I'm dumbfounded, aren't you? I just want to shout—good heavens! How are we ordinary bidders supposed to play along?"
Everyone was once again astonished by the outrageous generosity of the mysterious person in Number Two Box.
At first, some had been mocking him as a fool with too much money.
Now, they were all directly calling him a big shot.
Unapproachable! Unapproachable!
They couldn't afford to go against a tycoon so outrageously rich.
They're gone! They're gone!
Those who had been waiting to see how things played out, hoping to participate in the bidding for the Dragon-Phoenix Jade Pendant, immediately scattered.
Although these so-called ordinary bidders were actually wealthy and influential.
But they really couldn't compare to the big shot in Number Two Box.
With prices starting at a hundred million, how could they even compete?
Forget it, they gave up.
They weren't playing anymore!
Fu Shan's bid of a hundred million directly scared away a large group of people.
The person in Number One Box, seeing this situation, also paused, seemingly stunned for a moment by Fu Shan's "bold act."
But in an instant, they raised their paddle again:
"One hundred and ten million!"
Hiss—
The audience gasped in unison.
Fu Zicong, seated in Number Eight Box, gnashed his teeth in displeasure. Amidst the gasps and murmurs of the crowd, he grit his teeth and raised his bid again:
"One hundred and twenty million!"
With that, he glared fiercely in the direction of Number One Box:
Where did this bumpkin come from? To dare to compete with him at this moment? Hmph! Insignificant trash!
Just like the person in Number Two Box, both of them wanted to slap his, Young Master Fu's, face? Thinking of this, Fu Zicong grew angrier and secretly vowed:
He had to win this round, no matter what.
He absolutely could not lose to the people in Number One Box and Number Two Box! Otherwise, his name wouldn't be Fu! Hearing Fu Zicong's bid, the hall erupted in another wave of commotion:
"Tsk, did you see that? Young Master Fu from Number Eight Box raised his bid again. He directly increased it by ten million. It seems Young Master Fu is determined to go head-to-head with the people in Number One and Number Two Boxes."
"I think it's going to be a competition between these three, and the rest of us won't have a chance."
"Hey hey, let's just focus on the show. Let's see which of these three is the most loaded, and who will ultimately get the Dragon-Phoenix Jade Pendant."
"If you ask me, when it comes to being loaded, it's definitely Young Master Fu. After all, he's the young master of the number one wealthy family, the Fu family, and the son of the richest man. In our country, who can compare to Young Master Fu—Fu Zicong? The other two fighting with him... I doubt they stand a chance!"
The crowd couldn't help but chatter amongst themselves.
And everything was as they had predicted. For a while, in the vast venue, only the mysterious person in Number One Box, Fu Zicong in Number Eight Box, and Fu Shan in Number Two Box continued bidding.
Everyone else had consciously retreated, focusing on watching the show and waiting for the final auction result.
"One hundred and thirty million!"
"One hundred and forty million!"
"One hundred and fifty million!"
"One hundred and sixty million!"
The three parties were at a stalemate, the bidding price soaring all the way, causing everyone to gasp in amazement.
At the same time, it also delighted the auctioneer and a group of staff members.
Didn't you see? The auctioneer standing in the center of the stage in the hall was already grinning from ear to ear? No matter which big shot eventually took the Dragon-Phoenix Jade Pendant, one thing was beyond doubt, and that was—
It would definitely be a sky-high price! This time, their auction was going to make a killing.
And it was going to be a huge profit.
The host stood to gain a considerable commission from this single item alone.
They'd hit the jackpot!
Inside Number Eight Box,
Fu Zicong's expression was now extremely unsightly.
Li Miaomiao, on the other hand, was all smiles, looking incredibly excited and delighted.
While Fu Zicong was busy bidding, Li Miaomiao enthusiastically threw herself into his arms: "Zicong, you're so good to me! You know I love this Dragon-Phoenix Jade Pendant, and you're willing to bid over a hundred million to buy it for me. Zicong, I love you! I love you so much! Mwah~"
