Bigshot Gives in to His Wife Again

Chapter 98: Making Her Happy

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Gu Shiyan was not paying attention, she sent a message to Lin Bufan, saying that she had something on and could not go over. She asked him to leave first and not wait for her.

Lin Bufan had always listened to her words and didn’t ask much.

The auction downstairs soon began.

The two old men argued with each other while not forgetting to pay attention to the things they liked.

“Lot number 12, Emperor Green Jade Bracelet.

The jade material for this bracelet is exquisite, with abundant water content, and a beautifully bright and green color, making it a top-notch piece among Emperor Green jades.

Starting price: 30 million.”

The large screen behind the exhibition booth immediately displayed the appearance of the bracelet.

The translucent green bracelet appeared even more radiant on the enlarged screen.

In front of the box seats on the upper level, there was a railing instead of a wall, allowing a direct view of the hall below.

Luo Miao glanced up at the bracelet on the screen, couldn’t help but take another look, and then lowered his eyes again, continuing to boredly flip through the auction item list in his hand. “Room 15, bidder offers 31 million. Do we have a higher bid?”

“Bidder number 3 offers 35 million.”

The jade bracelet quickly rose to 50 million as the guests downstairs kept raising their placards.

“Are there any higher bids?” The emcee asked on the stage.

“As the saying goes, people nurture jade for three years, and jade nurtures people for a lifetime, especially when it comes to top-quality jade like this emerald…”

The host skillfully enticed and introduced the various advantages of the bracelet, hoping to fetch a higher price.

However, the rest of the people in the hall remained silent.

After all, while the jade was indeed excellent, a bracelet was nothing more than a decorative item.

Not everyone was willing to spend so much money to please a woman. “50 million going once, 50 million going twice…”

Just as everyone thought the host’s small wooden hammer was about to come down and seal the deal, the entire room suddenly gasped.

Luo Miao raised his head curiously and looked down at the commotion.

He saw a light suddenly lit up in the top left corner of the large screen downstairs, with a small LED screen above it displaying the number 6.

Upon seeing this, the host immediately stopped the action of bringing down the hammer and excitedly shouted, “Room number 6, lights Sky Lantern!” Lights Sky Lantern?

Luo Miao raised an eyebrow in slight surprise. The so-called Sky Lantern meant that the entire box had been privately reserved.

Regardless of the item being auctioned or the price offered by others, the person who reserved the box would directly purchase it.

Even if you deliberately tricked him and offered 100 million, he would have to take out 100 million to buy the item.

Every time a person lit a lantern, he would be prepared to lose half of his family property.

In ancient times, this method was mostly used by the royal nobles to pick up girls. Now, very few people would do this.

Unless this person had enough background and confidence, no one would dare to trick him.

Of course, the most important thing was to have enough money!

Once the Sky Lantern was lit, there was no turning back. Otherwise, the person would be blacklisted from the entire auction industry.

Luo Miao was curious. Who could it be that had a screw in his head and was willing to reserve the entire box just to impress a wealthy woman?

As the host’s voice fell, an antique lantern slowly rose and hung in the upper left corner of their private box.

Lu Miao was speechless.

She was speechless, very speechless.

Elder Sun and Professor Wen would never light a lantern, and neither did she. So the person with a screw in his head was…

She turned her head to look at Gu Shiyan, who was at the side, and saw that his well-defined fingers had just moved away from a small button beside the armrest of the chair.

Seeing her glance, he nonchalantly said, “If you want it, go ahead.”

Lu Miao wore a puzzled expression. “When did I say I liked it?”

Looking at Gu Shiyun’s confident demeanor, she almost thought she had suffered temporary amnesia just now. “You glanced at it for a moment.”

Gu Shiyun said with a self-assured tone.

This is absolutely outrageous!

Just because I looked at it for a moment among the crowd?

What kind of mind -boggling straight male thinking is this?

She looked at it for a moment only because the jade bracelet she saw was different from what ordinary people would see.

Within that jade, there was a vibrant aura, which was rare in this era of declining spiritual energy.

It didn’t mean she liked it and wanted to buy it!

Gu Shiyun didn’t disclose his identity. He clearly didn’t care whether others deliberately raised the bid or not.

There are already people downstairs who have started the bidding.

‘ Room No. 23 bids 55 million.”

‘ Room No. 42 has bid 60 million.”

Gu Shiyun remained immovable, sitting there calmly and leisurely sipping his tea.

It seemed as if the bidding frenzy below had nothing to do with him.

The price of the bracelet quickly reached 80 million, and no one bid higher.

Although the people in the private box didn’t reveal their identities, anyone daring to reserve the box at an auction was definitely not an ordinary person.

80 million was already a significant premium, but it should still be within the other party’s acceptable range. Going higher would be outrageous.

If they truly angered that person and faced potential retaliation in private, they couldn’t afford it.

The host asked three times and was about to bring down the hammer when the large screen suddenly lit up with another lantern!

The number 9 slowly appeared.

“Room number 9, Sky Lantern!”

The sound of gasps filled the hall!

Sky Lanterns were already rare, but today there were two people simultaneously reserving the box. It was an extremely rare occurrence!

The two of them lit the lanterns at the same time, and the item that was offered by the higher bidder would belong to the other party.

The other party quickly began to bid. “Guest in room 9 has bid 100 million!”

The host’s voice began to tremble.

The higher the bid, the higher her commission. If it reached a billion, she would break the company’s record for the highest auction price this year! Promotion and a raise would be guaranteed!

Gu Shiyun took a sip of tea, placed the tea bowl down, and raised the bidding device, directly pressing a number.

“Room 6, guest bids 130 million!”

This was a straightforward increase in price.

The audience below the stage did not even know how to gasp.

One bid was 30 million! 30 million!

Boss, this is real money, not game points!

If you raise the price so easily, they will think that it’s really easy to make money!

The host was so happy that she felt like he was floating.

The light in box number 9 lit up again, indicating a bid of 150 million!

In terms of bidding, they were equally relentless.

Without hesitation, Gu Shiyun pressed the button once more, offering 180 million.

A heart’s desire is priceless.

Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.

In the past, he only knew how to make money, but he had no desire to spend money.

Earning money felt like a daily task to him.

But now, he had someone he wanted to spend money on.

If she liked it, then no amount of money was too much.

Box number 9 refused to back down, directly offering 2 billion!

The audience was already numb to their actions of raising the bid by tens of millions every time they made a move.

What was the disparity of the world? This was it!
