Chapter 684: I Can’t Afford This Little Money?
She was just like her name, her voice reminiscent of a bird’s melodious song, extremely pleasing.Liu Ying glanced at Yang Jinghao not far away, and her lips curved into a smile.
Last time, she didn’t get to attend the Spring Gala, let Yang Jinghao take advantage of the situation.
As the two women chatted and laughed, Liu Ying suddenly took out her phone from her bag and saw a message from Mu Qingmei.
Liu Ying exclaimed in surprise: "Second Miss Mu said for me to wait a while and go to the private box; it seems to have something to do with collaborating on singing."
"Second Miss Mu? Mu Qingmei?" Ling Chenyu was taken aback, feeling much more balanced inside.
Turns out Mu Qingmei is sitting in the private box. The Mu Family is not much different from the Feng Family in terms of wealth. Mu Qingmei is a presence in An City like a queen, commanding attention.
If it’s her sitting in the box, she could definitely be at ease with that.
Guess Su Li is hiding in some dark corner?
Even though she wasn’t in the box, she was still in the best position on the first floor, yet didn’t see a trace of Su Li.
Ling Chenyu sneered: "Indeed, without Feng Huaijin, she’s nothing!"
The Feng Family and Ling Family had old ties, she had known Feng Huaijin since childhood.
Seventh Master Feng never attends such hypocritical charity events; it’s probably just Su Li who came alone?
Amidst the laughter of the group, the host finally appeared, and the auction officially began—
In the private box, Su Li leaned on the soft sofa, holding a piece of pastry to feed Feng Huaijin beside her: "Stop staring at Miss Mu like that... it’s quite scary."
Feng Huaijin bit into the pastry, shot a cold glance at Mu Qingmei, and snorted coldly, looking away.
Mu Qingmei wore a tight, neat leather outfit, her feet adorned with a pair of valuable branded white sneakers.
She sat in the corner, awkwardly said: "This auction is so stingy, just two private boxes. How would I know you were coming?"
By convention, one of these boxes is hers, but who knew Brother Qi came, and the other got booked.
So... she ended up squeezing in here.
Mu Qingmei took the fruit Su Li handed over and suddenly bowed to Feng Huaijin: "Brother Qi, sorry for intruding on your world of two, next time I’ll make sure to book the box first."
Su Li nearly spat out a mouthful of tea, a blush climbing her cheeks.
What world of two?
Mu Qingmei ate a red apple, watched the auction below, casually said: "Su Li, if there’s something you like later, I’ll buy it for you as my compensation."
Feng Huaijin glanced sideways, coolly said: "She wants it, and I can’t afford such a small expense?"
As the auction kicked off, Su Li watched the items being over-hyped by the host and suddenly had an idea.
Sitting in the audience, Ling Chenyu was tempted and immediately bid: "For this golden bell, I’ll offer three hundred thousand."
Beside her, Ling Yanchen’s eyelid twitched, looked at Ling Chenyu in astonishment, then whispered: "Chenyu, weren’t you here to buy the Heart of the Ocean? Why are you buying the bell?"
Ling Chenyu nonchalantly replied: "Brother, didn’t we bring forty million? It’s enough to buy the Heart of the Ocean. Surely buying a few other things won’t cost much more."
Ling Chenyu looked warmly at the finely crafted golden bell, just now the host said owning this bell would bring your wishes to fruition and a blissful marriage.
Even though she knew the host was exaggerating, she couldn’t resist wanting it! Look, many people were moved by the speech.
From the box came the attendant’s voice: "Box 01 bid four hundred thousand."
Ling Chenyu’s expression changed, what?
