The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband
Chapter 226 Rude words
Zhou Zhiyu, who was originally a little depressed, suddenly had a bright look in his eyes. However, contrary to his usual behavior, he suppressed the competitive desire that was beginning to surge in his heart, and behaved meekly to Zhou Fu.
"Thank you, Dad. I'll let you know when I see one I like. It's up to you to decide whether to bid or not."
Zhou Zhiyu's unusual humble and pleasing look greatly pleased Zhou Fu. After glancing at his little daughter with emotion, he turned his gaze back to the auction table.
Zhou Zhizhen and Zhou Zhishan didn't pay much attention to Zhou Zhiyu's sudden change, they just thought that she had finally grown up.
However, Zhou Zhiyu, who was sitting upright behind Zhou Fu, had a dark gloom in his eyes.
Isn't it just keeping a low profile? Since pretending to be good can win her father's favor, it's no big deal for her to be low-key.
It's good that she's a little bit sinister. She's not a kind woman either, so there's no rush for her to get back at him later.
It will be just right then, to settle all new and old grudges together.
Unlike the silent box, Yan Xuhan at the auction table asked three times as usual whether there were any VIPs who could bid higher, and then dropped his auction hammer.
Xu Yiyu calculated that she had only spent 8 million today, which was still far from the 300 billion target that Tongzi had given her. She had to keep working hard.
But maybe it was because the highlight of the first day of the auction had passed, the next four items were not on her and Lu Sanshi's must-bid list, so her state became a little lazy, watching the bidding downstairs and upstairs, she just took a piece of dessert from time to time and tasted it in small sips, almost completely switching to watching mode.
Since his own baby didn't care much, Lu Sanshi naturally wouldn't care either. He simply pushed forward the small wooden square table with tea and snacks placed between him and Xu Yiyu, moved his chair towards Xu Yiyu, and went over to hold Xu Yiyu's hand.
Xu Yiyu glanced at Lu Sanshi with a smile, but did not struggle. He just glanced at the snacks on the small square table and opened his mouth slightly.
Lu Sanshi, who had excellent eyesight, understood his baby's hint. He immediately brought the exquisite porcelain plate with snacks over and held it in his arms. He reached out and took the one that he had just tasted and thought was the most delicious, and fed it to Xu Yiyu's mouth with his own hands.
Xu Yiyu chewed the sweet and soft snack, pinched Lu Sanshi's face with his other hand with great satisfaction, and leaned forward to kiss Lu Sanshi's cheek gently.
"Be good, I'll give you a kiss."
After receiving Xu Yiyu's kiss and encouragement, Lu Sanshi seemed to have his Ren and Du meridians opened up in an instant. While watching the bidders bid with his baby, he would occasionally put a snack into Xu Yiyu's mouth. His "service" attitude was simply insanely good.
The bidding process for the fourth to seventh lots lasted for nearly half an hour. The guests did not raise the prices as much as they did for the first three lots, and their bids were much more cautious.
After Xu Yiyu yawned for the third time, Yan Xuhan finally announced that the seventh lot had been successfully auctioned, and it was time for the auction of the eighth lot.
When the huge object covered with red silk was pushed out from the backstage by many staff members, Xu Yiyu's casual gaze finally focused.
After taking a quick glance at the outline of the huge object, Xu Yiyu straightened his lazy sitting posture slightly, feeling quite excited about the battle that was about to begin.
She recognized what this huge object was at first sight. Even though most people were not optimistic about it, she was determined to get it today.
The moment the red silk on the huge object was peeled off by the staff, not only did no applause break out from the audience, but there were also bursts of disappointed boos.
"Why is this thing brought up again..."
"How did this thing sneak into the auction process on the first day?"
"Even if the owner of this stone is Master Meng's apprentice, he is not qualified to appear on the first day, right?"
"Be careful with your words! Elder Meng is here, so keep your voice down."
"It's a miracle that this thing hasn't been destroyed. What happened to the four major families? They allowed it to exist for so long!"
With his extraordinary hearing, Xu Yiyu was able to hear the whispers of most of the guests downstairs, and his eyes turned cold.
She looked down at the stairs and cast a cold look at the bidders who spoke rudely to Mr. Meng.
Xu Yiyu could understand why the guests present were not optimistic about the value of this stone. After all, it had disappointed everyone more than once at previous auctions.
But what about those guests who keep mentioning the names of Master Meng and his apprentice?
Speaking of the matter, although this huge stone does belong to Master Meng's apprentice, he is also a famous sculptor throughout China. Why do the tones of those people's voices make it seem as if Master Meng and he are people that no one can comment on?
Xu Yiyu carefully identified the positions of those people who had just spoken rudely, and then carefully observed their attire today. "By the way," he also asked Tongzi to help him search for their identities based on their body shape data, and soon found out who these people were.
Two of them with lighter hair are members of a top idol group that has become popular in the domestic entertainment industry in the past two years. The one with black hair is a young actor who has previously established a humble and dedicated persona in public. The last one wearing a hat is an internet celebrity sculptor who is well-known in the sculpting circle and has a certain number of fans on Douyin.
Xu Yiyu's eyes revealed a bit of contempt, and he no longer paid attention to these people.
She herself has no prejudice against idols and top stars, but if the subconscious words of these people reveal such qualities, then she doesn't mind using her financial ability to teach them a "small" lesson.
The heads of the four major families had placed several spies in the ordinary seats downstairs, so they naturally knew how much controversy there would be about this huge stone.
The disrespectful words those people used towards Master Meng and other closed disciples naturally reached the ears of several family heads at the first time.
The four family heads all frowned, and Ye Wen's brows were even tinged with a hint of annoyance, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart.
It seems that they will have to be more strict in screening the guests for the auction in the future, so as to prevent some ignorant guys from sneaking in. Who knows if they will show off outside that they are qualified to participate in this auction, which will only lower the reputation of their four major families!
Meng Lingqi was sitting in the Ye family's box at this moment. Although he heard these nonsense, his heart was calm.
Yan Xuhan at the auction table upheld her professionalism and did not look down upon this huge stone that had been auctioned several times before. She began her introduction without any delay.
"The eighth lot is a giant rough stone from the first jade pit on the border between my country and Mian State. It weighs 1.01 tons and the starting price is 300 million. Each bid must not be less than 10. Please bid!"
After Yan Xuhan announced the start of the auction, the atmosphere below the auction stage suddenly changed, becoming unprecedentedly quiet.
