Chapter 109: The Foreign Ghost (1)
President Chen of Huarui had unexpectedly bid for a jadeite bracelet at a sky-high price of 30 million! The way everyone looked at Wang Chuan was a little complicated.
They all know that President Chen had high standards. If he didn’t take a fancy to the items at auction here, he wouldn’t take part in the bidding.
But this time, President Chen had participated in the bidding, and the amount was also enormous.
Furthermore, Ye Sui had also participated in the bidding war. It was uncertain whether President Chen had really taken a fancy to the jadeite bracelet or he was only helping Ye Sui because she was a Huarui artist.
No one knew the answer.
When Ye Sui saw that Chen Shu was about to bid, she was stupefied for a few seconds. Then, a smile floated in her eyes. She knew that Chen Shu was going to help her.
Ye Sui pretended to inadvertently glance at the VIP seat upstairs, knowing that the person who cared for her and didn’t want her to suffer in any way was sitting behind that door.
Chang Ying clenched her fist with anger. Before, Ye Sui had deliberately increased the price again and again, which had made her nervous. As time passed, she had no idea how high the final price would be.
And now that President Chen was interfering, it proved his attitude.
In this auction, he won’t allow anyone else to buy this jadeite bracelet, particularly her. Ye Sui was his wife, so Chen Shu would make Ye Sui look good in front of everyone.
Chang Ying wanted to continue bidding; after all, everyone was watching them. However, this was President Chen of Huarui. She couldn’t compete with him in terms of money.
The top resources in the entertainment industry were all in Huarui’s hands. Not only could she not offend President Chen, but she must also please him. She was a little afraid to provoke even Ye Sui now.
She was destined to lose face at this auction.
Finally, the auctioneer said, “Is anyone else bidding?”
Everyone looked at Chang Ying. Because of President Chen’s move, Ye Sui no longer needed to bid. Only Chang Ying was left.
Chang Ying’s body stiffened, and she didn’t bid anymore.
Auctioneer: “First call for thirty million.”
The hall was silent, and no one made a bid.
The auctioneer repeated, “Second call for thirty million.”
There was no voice.
The auctioneer yelled one last time, “Last call for thirty million.” The hammer fell, and the auctioneer’s voice resounded in the hall. “This bracelet belongs to President Chen.”
Bang! The final auction item was bought by President Chen of Huarui.
Tonight’s auction was about to come to an end, so Wang Chuan got the jadeite bracelet. Everyone thought that President Chen would just leave with the item. After all, that was what he did at every previous auction.
Get what he liked and leave, not staying half a second longer. But this time, his actions were bound to shock everyone.
Not only did Wang Chuan not return to the VIP room, but he also took the bracelet and walked up to Ye Sui. He looked at her and opened his mouth.
“Miss Ye Sui, please stay.”
The departing people all stopped in their tracks and stared at Ye Sui, puzzled. Why didn’t Wang Chuan give the bracelet to President Chen directly?
Wang Chuan’s actions reflected President Chen’s intentions. What was he planning to do now? Once again, Ye Sui was also stunned like others. Even she couldn’t figure out Chen Shu’s thoughts.
Wang Chuan remembered his boss’s instructions. He remained composed as he handed the bracelet to Ye Sui, his voice sounding clear, “Miss Ye Sui, this bracelet is a gift from President Chen. Now, it’s yours.”
Ye Sui was dumbfounded. She understood Chen Shu’s purpose. He was doing this to let Chang Ying and everyone know that Huarui would protect her.
An unspeakable emotion floated in Ye Sui’s heart. However, she restrained it and accepted the bracelet. “Thank you.”
After Wang Chuan completed the task, he left with satisfaction.
The hall was silent. Everyone was so shocked that they could not speak. Tonight, President Chen had participated in the bidding, and now he even gave the high-profile jadeite bracelet to Ye Sui.
President Chen had acted in an unusually flamboyant manner. President Chen didn’t hide his intentions at all: he was clearly supporting Ye Sui.
Tonight, Ye Sui had been glorious, but what about Chang Ying, who opposed her?
