The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

The sudden silence at the scene did not make the gold medal auctioneer Yan Xuhan panic. She just waited calmly for the bid to be refreshed on the huge electronic screen on the stage.

She had heard about this boulder before. Except for the first two years when it appeared and attracted a lot of bidders, whenever it appeared at auctions in the following years, it basically ended up failing to sell.

Ten seconds later, the first bid appeared on the electronic screen.

"VIP No. 13 bids 330 million."

Shortly after this bid information appeared, the second one was refreshed.

"VIP No. 14 bids 360 million."

Compared with the huge size of this boulder, the starting price is indeed a bit low. However, as a "waste stone" that is quite famous in the imperial capital and even in the whole of China, the fact that someone still makes a bid for it has actually given enough face to the four major families.

The two bids remained on the electronic screen for nearly a minute. Yan Xuhan was not in a hurry to ask the guests if they had any higher bids. She just glanced at the bidders from time to time to see if anyone was interested in bidding.

Just as Xu Yiyu picked up the bidder at hand and prepared to enter the price, the information on the electronic screen unexpectedly scrolled and refreshed again.

"VIP No. 1 bids 500 million."

When the bid of 500 million was made, the heads of the four major families were all startled, and suddenly they were a little confused about the intention of the big shot in Box No. 1.

He made an offer, and they all thought it was normal.

But the fact that he would bid for a piece of waste stone is quite intriguing.

Xu Yiyu paused as he was entering the price and put his bid on hold, wanting to see if the atmosphere on the scene would be lifted by the 500 million bid.

As Xu Yiyu expected, soon after the big shot in Box 1 made his bid, the guests in the ordinary seats downstairs began to whisper again. Some guests who had the ability to buy the stone began to waver, hesitating whether to follow suit and bid.

The people entertained in Box No. 1 are either rich or noble. Since they have made an offer, maybe they think there is still potential to be mined in this stone?

There were obviously quite a few people who had this idea, and soon the fourth quote scrolled out on the electronic screen.

"VIP No. 66 bids 600 million."

With someone taking the lead in bidding, the atmosphere of the auction gradually became more enthusiastic.

"VIP No. 69 bids 660 million."

"VIP No. 72 bids 700 million."

"VIP No. 75 bids 820 million."

Seeing more and more people bidding, the two idols who had spoken rudely to Mr. Meng and his last disciple before looked a little indifferent under their masks. The young actor who had always been humble and dedicated had his eyes darkened and looked up at the box upstairs.

The internet celebrity sculptor who was quite popular on Douyin curled his lips in disdain, folded his arms, and threw the bidding device in his hand aside.

In Box No. 1, the man wearing a light golden mask looked at the gradually lively atmosphere downstairs, knowing that the purpose of his bidding just now had been achieved, and then put the bidding device in his hand aside.

"Sir, you're not bidding anymore?"

The man's female companion was a plump, middle-aged woman who was obviously quite old. Her face was covered by a light pink feather mask, but she looked at the man in the light gold mask with curiosity.

"No, since my goal has been achieved, let other bidders who are interested in this stone compete for it."

The man glanced at a sculptor sitting in a corner downstairs, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

Mr. Meng, I have already repaid your favor. As for how your apprentice's stone will perform in the final auction, that will all depend on fate.

Feng Can raised his head and looked at each of the private rooms upstairs one by one, his eyes misty and unclear.

Master, was the bid from the guy in Box 1 also made by you? Or was it just a coincidence?

Feng Can slowly lowered his head, his slightly weathered face hidden by a large mask, and did not attract the attention of anyone present, including Meng Lingqi himself who was sitting in the Ye family's box.

Xu Yiyu watched the bids for the stone for a while. When he saw that the number of bidders on the electronic screen began to decrease, he slowly entered a string of numbers into the bidder and pressed the send button without hesitation for half a second.

The next second, the bidding information refreshed on the electronic screen once again shocked everyone.

"VIP No. 6 bid 1 billion."

Familiar scene, familiar bidders, familiar bidding style.

Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw that the previous bidding price was only 1200 million.

Is it allowed by the auction and the four major families to raise the price like the mysterious man in Box 6? Isn't the man in Box 6 afraid of causing controversy?

Seeing this obviously outrageous bid, the younger of the two boy band members finally couldn't control his temper anymore. He raised his hand and called the venue staff and whispered a few words to them.

A few seconds later, a sentence came from Yan Xuhan's Bluetooth headset, which made her frown a little.

"I'm sorry, distinguished guests, I have to inform you of an update - one of our guests has questioned and protested the bid made by VIP No. 6, and has asked VIP No. 6 to verify his capital."

Yan Xuhan's announcement obviously made most people present look surprised. Xu Yiyu, who was sitting quietly in Box 6, also cast his gaze towards the two idols and slightly raised his eyebrows.

Can't help but want to fight her so soon?

Should she say that this top idol is too young, too young, or too young?

The next moment, the door of the box behind Xu Yiyu was knocked. Lu Sanshi frowned and cast a questioning look at his baby.

Seeing his baby nod lightly, Lu Sanshi had no reason to hesitate and pressed the door-opening button next to him lightly.

After the door of the box opened, two staff members walked into the box holding a POS machine, with embarrassed and awkward expressions on their faces.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Xu. The heads of the families didn't want to disturb your pleasure, but according to the rules of the auction in previous years, we must go through this necessary process when a guest raises questions. I hope you can understand."

Xu Yiyu glanced at Lu Sanshi calmly, and Lu Sanshi immediately understood. He took out Xu Yiyu's bank card from the secret pocket of his suit jacket and handed it to the staff.

"It's okay. I understand the difficulties faced by the family heads. Just follow the procedures. I will fully cooperate."

The staff member took the bank card from Lu Sanshi without even raising his head. As he listened to Xu Yiyu's nonchalant words, the cold sweat on his back almost soaked his uniform shirt.

They had never dealt with Miss Xu before, and they didn't know if she was really as easy to talk to as she appeared, so they didn't dare to neglect her.

One of the staff members picked up the bank card and swiped it on the machine, performing some not-too-complicated operations. Finally, after asking Xu Yiyu to cooperate in entering the password, he handed the bank card back to Lu Sanshi.

The feedback result appeared on the POS machine screen not long after. The two staff members looked at the 11-digit balance number in shock, and cold sweat broke out on their backs.

"Excuse me Miss Xu, thank you very much for your cooperation."

The staff member's attitude became even more respectful at this point, and he didn't even dare to raise his hand to wipe the sweat dripping from his chin.

"Once again, we would like to express our sincerest apologies to you. We will report the capital verification results truthfully. Please continue to view the auction items."

Before the two staff members left the box, Xu Yiyu added something seemingly nonchalantly.

"Now that I have responded to the doubts and proved my ability, should the guest who doubted me also go through the same process to express his apology?"

One of the staff members stiffened his back, looked at his colleague, and quickly agreed.

"I have one more request."

Xu Yiyu's voice is pleasant to the ears, like the sound of nature.

"If it does not violate the auction rules, please report the capital verification results of me and that VIP on the electronic screen to show fairness."

The words drifted into the ears of the staff, like the sweet and gentle whisper of a devil.
