Chapter 97: Unprecedented Bravery

ggested kindly.Ho Yi-rou retorted: "Why don't you dig up your grandfather and let him come"Two people were arguing fiercely, Su He quietly sat aside watching the show.This kind of drama always plays o...Back at the charity event, wealthy ladies still surrounded them, asking about her and Shen Niannian with concern.

Even some people spoke up for Shen Niannian, whispering that Qin Luo'an had ruined the etiquette of the charity gala.

The young girl she had brought along was also driven out after cleaning up the shattered champagne tower, becoming a laughingstock as well.

Shen Niannian didn't like this kind of occasion, but seeing Su He always maintained a polite smile, she unconsciously imitated her.

Su He looked around but didn't see Qin Shi and Huo Chen Xi.

Having thought about what she had told Huo Chen Xi before, that she wanted to sever ties with the past, Huo Chen Xi looked at her intently for almost a minute. His eyes were complex, as if he had thousands of words to say, but in the end, he didn't utter a single one.

Finally, he withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to say, "Well, this is also good!"

Voice landed, he directly turned direction and slowly left.

Looking at Huo Chenxi's back, Su He inexplicably felt a sense of loneliness and desolation that was out of place with the luxurious hotel.

If it had happened before, she would have been heartbroken and tried every way to be with him and cheer him up.

"Sister, what are you looking at" Noticing Su He's gaze, Shen Niannian also looked around and asked in a low voice.

Su He smiled and shook her head. "It's nothing, just taking a look at the guests who came to the banquet!"

Most of the guests who came over to greet her were accompanied by their female partners, suggesting that those people didn't really consider her important.

In their eyes, even a young female CEO in her twenties is nothing more than a title.

Nobody believed that Shen Zhaolin had truly handed over the position of CEO of Yihe Group to Su He. At most, she was just a puppet.

The charity banquet was addressed by the mayor of A city, followed by the most crucial part – the auction.

All the auction items for this charitable gala were donated voluntarily by various parties, each one being of considerable value.

According to the auction rules of past years, if the bid for a cultural relic exceeds its estimated price, it will be won by the bidder. If it does not reach the estimated price or no one bids, resulting in a failed auction, the original owner will repurchase the cultural relic.

Actually, most people return the artifacts to their original owners after auctioning them off in order to establish a partnership.

All proceeds from the annual charity gala auction will be donated to the mountains to help more children in need.

The first lot up for auction is a phoenix crown donated by the Qin family. It's an ancient yet exquisitely ornate piece, said to be the dowry of the Qin family matriarch's natal home.

At the sight of this, all attendees couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

No wonder the Qin family could get the rights to host the charity gala, look at this scale, even the old lady's dowry is being brought out.

It looks like it's going to be a lively night.

"The starting price is 30 million," the host announced, revealing the phoenix crown's bid.

While the quote isn't as high as the phoenix crown, it is a bit steep for an opening offer.

Many people want to curry favor with the Qin family, but if you empty your budget at the start, what will you do later

Some people bid sparsely, raising the price to fifty million, after which no one continued to bid.

Qin Mian glanced around, but he couldn't see Qin Shi's whereabouts. He couldn't help but frown.

The phoenix crown itself is incredibly valuable, with a current asking price of 50 million. Obviously, it doesn't reach the auction price.

Qin Shi came from the Qin family, according to the rules, he should have bid on this piece of art.

The host, apparently caught off guard by this turn of events, glanced at Qin Mian in the distance before smiling and introducing the phoenix crown again, shouting loudly, "Are there any more bids"

The guests at the scene knew the rules of the charity gala. If this phoenix crown was the finale, they would naturally bid with all their available budget. However, it was placed first.

Just as Qin Mian was about to grit his teeth and bid the estimated price for the phoenix crown, a crisp female voice sounded calmly: “I’ll offer 130 million!”

The estimated price is 30 million more than the phoenix crown.

All the guests were astonished.

Even the host's voice trembled in surprise: "One hundred and thirty million, a guest has bid one hundred and thirty million!"

Noticing that he had become the center of attention, even with the spotlight shining on him, Su He smiled and nodded at the host, confirming that he hadn't misheard.

The host, excitedly, shouted the price three times in succession before slamming down the gavel and declaring, "Sold!"

"Mr. Shen's family Too extravagant!"

"Little girl, you have no experience. You showed your bottom card in the first round, how are you going to play the rest of the game"

……

The conversation went on in fits and starts, with a mix of admiration and criticism, but Su He seemed to hear none of it.

Round two, Round three, Round four.

Su He did not participate in the bidding.

After the successful auction, the bidders who were chosen to compete for the treasures all subconsciously cast a glance at Su He.

Fifth round.

The jewelry set of imperial jade was donated by the Huo family.

Seeing the jewelry set, priced at a meager thirty million, guests began to whisper and chuckle dismissively.

The Huo family is truly down on their luck. At such an important time, they're trying to appease people with just this set of jewelry.

Su He, however, stared blankly at the set of jewelry.

She remembered that set of jewelry was the one Grandma Huo loved most, bought for her by Grandpa Huo with his first earnings.

Grandma Huo had originally wanted to give this set of jewelry to her, but knowing that Grandma Huo liked it, she kept refusing.

When Grandma Huo was seriously ill, she said she wanted to leave this set of jewelry to her.

However, Granny Huo hadn't had time to make a will before she discovered that the set of jewelry was missing. She regretted not giving it to her in advance.

To my surprise, here I am at a charity gala.

Thinking of He Suwen who had previously accused her of stealing, Su He couldn't help but sneer and curl her lips.

"There's nothing quite like the thief crying "thief"!

"

It was probably because Huo Chenxi, the heir of the Huo family, had an incident. The CEO of Di Jin Group was replaced again. Guests seemed to have lost interest in the Huo family, and no one bid at the auction.

Shen Niannian noticed that Su He's eyes looked at the set of jewelry with a hint of regret. She quietly asked, "Sister, do you like it W I'll take a picture for you!"

Su He held down Shen Niannian's hand, wanting to raise a sign, and shook his head at her.

Although photos of Shen Niannian and Huo Chenyi haven't been leaked, rumors about their relationship have spread.

...and before that, Huo Chenxi announced at a press conference that he and Su He had been married. Su He is currently being auctioned off, which is also not suitable.

She doesn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble yet.

She took out her phone, found the contact who she had been in touch with for a while, and sent a message.

In a short while, an auction board was raised not far away, accompanied by a woman's crisp and clear voice: "Forty million."

Shen Niannian looked at Su He in astonishment. She clearly saw that Su He had sent a message to He Lijun, the heir of Luosiming Group, and the person holding the sign ahead was indeed He Lijun.

"Fifty million." The young boy sitting next to He Lijun immediately raised his bidding card.

Helen Jun narrowed her eyes and glared at her younger brother, who looked as clueless as a spore. She lowered her voice and hissed, “What are you doing”

Zhao Binrui remained silent, but his gaze fell on the phone she had casually placed on the table.
