Surprise! I'm pregnant with a rich heir

The auctioneer's tone was a little excited. "The next one I'm going to introduce is the Green Peach Hairpin with Fortune Pattern. Not only is it made of the rare top-grade Longshi jadeite on the market, but the sculptor, Wang Huiming, is also a descendant of the sculptors employed by the imperial court. The whole piece is transparent, with a warm and delicate texture, and is luxurious but not extravagant. It symbolizes longevity and fortune, and is a rare treasure. The starting price is 30 million!"

As soon as the words came out, someone held up a sign, "31 million"

"Thirty-two million"

"35 million"

Seeing that there were more and more competitors, Ruan Yin felt a little anxious. This gift seemed to be tailor-made for her grandmother, and it would be a pity to miss it.

She said crisply: "Thirty-six million"

"Thirty-eight million" was followed closely by others.

The price was very tight, the price of the hairpin went from 30 million to 42 million. Ruan Yin was a little hesitant, and Xi Xuanyao didn't say anything. Was the price too expensive?

She turned her head to look at him. Xi Xuanyao curled his lips, raised his hand, pinched her wrist and held up the sign, and said loudly: "Fifty million!"

The people present looked over and found that it was Xi Xuanyao who heard the voice. Many people changed their minds. Next week is the 80th birthday of the old lady of the Xi family. This item is a birthday gift. Many people have already received invitations. They immediately stopped and gave face to the Xi family.

After seeing no one bidding for a long time, the auctioneer understood.

"Fifty million once"

"Fifty Million Twice"

……

"make a deal"

Ruan Yin breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "I thought you didn't like it."

Xi Xuanyao squeezed her palm without saying a word. The purpose of today's auction was to bid for this hairpin, and he would not give up on something he had set his eyes on. He had not said anything before just to let Ruan Yin experience the fun of bidding.

After taking a picture of grandma’s birthday gift, Ruan Yin felt much more relaxed. The next item was a painting.

She didn't understand painting, but when the light shone on the painting, she couldn't take her eyes away. The girl's expression and appearance seemed familiar.

Just as she was contemplating who it was, Chen Ziming exclaimed in shock, "Lan Yue?"

This was the painting he made for Shen Lanyue back then. How come it appeared here?

Ruan Yin suddenly came to her senses and finally understood why it was so familiar. The person in the painting was actually Shen Lanyue! She looked at Xi Xuanyao, wondering if he would take a picture of the painting.

The auctioneer was speaking on the stage, "The artist of this painting is unsigned, and the brushwork is a little immature, but it blends in with the youthfulness of the girl. The starting price is 500,000."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ziming said directly: "Six hundred thousand"

"Six hundred and fifty thousand"

Ruan Yin didn't expect that Chen Ziming had started bidding before Xi Xuanyao, and the price of the painting went up to one million.

She looked at Xi Xuanyao's profile. During the auction of this painting, he was absent-minded at the beginning, but he quickly recovered and has not said a word until now. No one knew what he was thinking.

Even if they have let it go, no one wants the portrait of someone they once loved to fall into the hands of others.

But listening to Chen Ziming's bidding, it seemed that he was determined to win. Perhaps he was embarrassed to compete with his brothers?

Xi Xuanyao turned around and found Ruan Yin looking at him. He pinched his palms, as if asking what was wrong.

"Aren't you going to take a picture of this painting?" Ruan Yin asked hesitantly.

Xi Xuanyao, with a smile in his eyes, leaned close to her ear and asked, "Do you want me to take a picture of this painting?"

Ruan Yin shook her head and said frankly: "I don't want to, but I'm afraid you'll regret it." Who would want the person they like to keep a portrait of Bai Yueguang every day? This is just making things difficult for herself.

"I'm glad you're honest, but I'm not the best destination for this painting." Xi Xuanyao motioned Ruan Yin to look over, and Chen Ziming bought the painting for 1.05 million.

Ruan Yin was even more confused. Wasn't this the person Xi Xuanyao liked? Why was Chen Ziming so enthusiastic? Did he think the painting was good?

Xi Xuanyao explained to her puzzled look, "This painting is Ziming's work. He wouldn't let anyone else take it."

Ruan Yin suddenly realized that it was indeed true, and she must get back her hard work.

"This painting was painted by him, so how could it be sent for auction without his knowledge?" Based on her preliminary understanding of the auction, the items auctioned here were all obtained through formal channels and there was no illegal theft.

When Chen Ziming heard this, he whispered back: "I gave this painting to Lanyue back then. Why it appears at the auction now, I don't know." After thinking about it, the only possible person could be Shen Lanxi, but it was not easy to say it in front of Xuanyao, lest their relationship, which had just warmed up, become strained again.

Xi Xuanyao's mind suddenly turned, and he realized that it was Shen Lanxi's work. She probably knew that he would come to the auction.

Ruan Yin was not a fool. She knew that this was Shen Lanxi's work. She must have known that Xi Xuanyao would come to the auction and would definitely buy the painting when he saw it. By then, their relationship, which had just eased, would return to square one.

Unfortunately, she didn't expect Chen Ziming to come, and the painting eventually returned to its owner.

Ruan Yin only glanced at the following items before putting them away. Only the last ruby ​​necklace, the store's treasure, made her look a few more times. After just a few glances, Xi Xuanyao bought it for nearly 100 million yuan without saying a word.

After the auction, Ruan Yin felt a little worried when she looked at the hairpin and ruby ​​necklace that were sent to her. She didn't dare to take such expensive things. She would be heartbroken if they were dropped or damaged.

She looked at Xi Xuanyao and asked, "How do we take this back?"

Xi Xuanyao was pleased by her worried expression. He rubbed her head and said, "The bodyguard will take it over later."

Chen Ziming took the painting and looked at it for a long time with a focused look, as if he was examining himself many years ago.

Xi Xuanyao knew his problem. He didn't like being disturbed when he was looking at paintings, so he pulled Ruan Yin away quietly.

When they got home, the hairpin and ruby ​​necklace were placed intact on the coffee table. Xi Xuanyao reached out to take off the necklace and motioned Ruan Yin to turn her back.

Ruan Yin did as she was told and saw in the mirror that Xi Xuanyao put the ruby ​​necklace around her neck. The bright gems shone brightly, making her originally fair skin look even more transparent and delicate like jade.

With the necklace worth 100 million yuan on her neck, she felt stiff and at a loss.

She had never worn such an expensive thing in her life. In the past, she thought a necklace worth several million was a sky-high price, let alone this necklace worth one hundred million!

Who can be comfortable wearing something worth 100 million yuan? Ruan Yin felt that she couldn't do it.

"Look at the necklace, do you like it?" Xi Xuanyao lowered his eyes and looked at Ruan Yin in front of him, then raised his hand and tapped the ruby ​​twice.

The slightly cold fingertips gently brushed across her skin, causing Ruan Yin's whole body to tremble slightly. The words that came from her ears made her look up suddenly, "Is this necklace for me?"

Xi Xuanyao did not answer but asked, "If not for you, who should I give it to?" Why did she think she would buy a necklace for someone else?

"I thought you took the photo for your mother." She knew that Han Miaoyun liked red, so she subconsciously thought that Xi Xuanyao took the photo for his mother and just let her try it on.

Xi Xuanyao hugged her from behind and laughed. Ruan Yin felt the vibration in his chest and became angry: "What are you laughing at? Isn't this your mother's favorite color? It's normal for me to think this way, right?"
