C258 Five Hundred Million
"250 million."
"210 million!"
Following that, there were even more people raising the bid. It could be seen that everyone really wanted this antique.
Zhuang Jiyue did the same after the first bid.
When the price reached 250 million, Zhuang Jiyue spoke again.
"300 million!"
Zhuang Jiyue's bid surprised everyone in the auction hall. Many of them looked at Zhuang Jiyue, wondering which family she belonged to after seeing her exquisite attire.
"Alright, this lady has bid 300 million. This should be her highest price so far today. Is there any higher bid?"
Chu Xihee whispered beside Zhuang Jiyue, "I didn't know that you like this thing so much."
"This is mine. No matter how much it costs, I will take it. Just wait and see." Zhuang Jiyue said.
Looking at Zhuang Jiyue's firm expression, Chu Xihee suddenly felt that there was an unusual light on her body. Perhaps it was because she was dressed more prettily than usual today.
There seemed to be something particularly attractive about her, something that only females could have, and which was also vividly reflected in Zhuang Jiyue's body, which was her feminine charm and gentleness.
However, within this soft beauty, there was also a strength unique to Zhuang Jiyue, which formed an especially sharp contrast.
This contrast made people want to enter her world, to explore it, to unravel all the mysteries within her.
At this point of time, the price had made some of the people cower. Only a small portion of the people were still trying to increase their price.
"310 million!"
"320 million!"
"Three hundred and thirty million!"
Seeing the price rapidly rising, many people in the crowd sucked in a breath of cold air. The higher the price, the less people there would be competing for the higher price.
But at the same time, everyone also felt that it was very exciting, waiting to see how high the final price would be.
"350 million."
"Alright, now that I'm at 350 million, this beauty is bidding again. Are there any more bids?"
The host's voice also sounded slightly excited. There was a short period of silence. Everyone was looking at each other.
At this level, some people began to consider whether or not they should raise the price and weigh whether or not this item was worth so much money. Thus, everyone had the intention to wait and see.
Moreover, Zhuang Jiyue appeared very domineering. It seemed that no matter how much you bid, she would beat you in the end. This undoubtedly gave the other bidders an invisible pressure.
However, just as the host of the silence was about to speak, a voice rang out, causing the price to skyrocket.
"400 million."
"400 million!" "Alright, this mister has given you 400 million, and a new high price has appeared. Are there any higher prices?!"
For a moment, the entire venue was in an uproar. No one expected that someone would be so much more powerful than Zhuang Jiyue, and even be worth fifty million yuan. This person was trying to persuade Zhuang Jiyue to back off with a high price.
The man who called out the price wasn't very old, he was sitting in the front row not far from Zhuang Jiyue, and many of the people sitting next to him recognized him.
It turned out that this man was the famous outer sect's second generation, He Da. Today, he appeared at the auction venue. As expected, he was extraordinary.
His bid had also attracted Zhuang Jiyue's attention. She couldn't help but look in the direction of the bid. Unexpectedly, He Da also looked at Zhuang Jiyue. Their gazes met.
He Da even raised her hand to show her respect.
However, Zhuang Jiyue did not back off. She wanted this thing.
"420 million."
Zhuang Jiyue raised her hand once again, but her voice showed no intention of backing down.
"Alright, 420 million!" This beauty has raised the bid again. Today's auction is really intense. Are there still any bids? "
There were only a handful of people who had the strength to keep up. Even if they had the strength, they wouldn't dare to compete with Zhuang Jiyue.
After a while, it was still He Da who raised the plate.
"450 million."
"450 million!"
The auctioneer looked at the bidders below. Currently, it was basically only He Da and Zhuang Jiyue who were competing with each other. The final bidder would appear between the two.
Now everyone was focusing on Zhuang Jiyue. If she didn't shout, it would probably be He Da's.
He Da had a relaxed expression. He felt that his price could no longer be reached by anyone, as if victory was already within his grasp.
Everyone was waiting for Zhuang Jiyue to express her stance. Her expression didn't change, just like how it seemed on the surface, she was demure and demure.
Chu Xihee saw the light in her eyes and tried to persuade her, "Isn't it necessary to spend hundreds of millions on this? Isn't it good to use the money to buy a car? You can buy hundreds of your cars."
However, Zhuang Jiyue raised her hand without any hesitation. Everyone's heart tightened when they saw her actions.
"500 million."
Zhuang Jiyue's words were like a thunderclap. However, she did not care about the gazes of others. Instead, she turned to Chu Xihee and revealed her iconic smile.
"This is my justice."
"Justice?"
Chu Xihee was confused. No matter what, in a place like this, justice had nothing to do with it.
Just when Chu Xihee was surprised, He Da had already stopped bidding. Under the admiring gaze of the crowd, that weird mask landed on Zhuang Jiyue's name.
When they went backstage to pay, Chu Xihee saw Zhuang Jiyue take out a black gold card and paid her five hundred million without batting an eye.
Chu Xihee felt that Zhuang Jiyue was even more mysterious now. He had never seen her having relatives in the Chuanzhou before, how could she have so much money.
However, after Zhuang Jiyue made the payment, she put forward a request. She wanted to see the original owner of the auction item. The organizer agreed to it.
Auction was also a form of social interaction. It was not strange for him to meet the original owner of a favorite item.
Zhuang Jiyue and Chu Xihee were brought to a room. Uncle, who looked to be in his fifties, was waiting inside with a few henchmen beside him.
With a smile, Uncle Wu extended his hand towards Zhuang Jiyue, his eyes constantly sizing up Zhuang Jiyue's face and figure.
"She really is a beauty, it's really my pleasure to meet her. My name is Ning and I'm very honored to be able to meet Miss Zhuang."
He then said, "Let's have a meal together if we have the chance, Miss Zhuang."
However, Zhuang Jiyue said, "There's no need to eat. This is not the first time I've met you."
Ning Youmen was puzzled. She looked at Zhuang Jiyue frivolously, but was unable to figure out what Zhuang Jiyue meant.
Zhuang Jiyue directly said, "You said that this antique came from overseas, but as far as I know, it was actually stolen from your tomb."
When Chu Xihee heard this, he finally understood. Zhuang Jiyue bought the antique to lure this person away, so many doubts could be explained instantly.
Zhuang Jiyue had been trying to track him down for a long time, but he had always been very cunning and refused to show his face.
