"Four million." This time it was Ji Yemo.
Ji Qing seemed determined to win, "Five million!"
In the blink of an eye, the price of this bracelet had doubled that of Wen Zhiyan’s pendant!
Ning Xixi herself hadn’t expected the bracelet to fetch such a high price!
Wen Zhiyan’s fake smile couldn’t hide her irritation, "It seems that Miss Ning’s bracelet is very popular."
Ning Xixi felt her sarcasm, tugged at the corner of her mouth, and didn’t respond.
This made Wen Zhiyan even more dissatisfied.
The bidding continued—
"Six million!"
"Seven million!"
"..."
In a flash, Ji Yebai had bid the price up to ten million!
Ning Xixi shook his arm, "Hey, you shouldn’t be spending money like this, Dabai."
Her coquettish manner was all observed by Ji Qing.
In his distant eyes, a flash of unusual and heavy emotions flickered.
He raised his paddle halfway, then put it back down.
Her bracelet, bought by her boyfriend and returned to her, that should make the little girl happy, right?
Thinking this, Ji Qing gave up on the bidding.
The bracelet was auctioned off for ten million by Ji Yebai.
"Master Ji really spoils his wife beyond measure! Not even married yet and already this indulgent, truly enviable!" The auctioneer teased humorously, Ji Yebai hooked up a smile, took the bracelet, and put it back on Ning Xixi.
"Your luck should be protected by yourself." His low and magnetic voice carried a deep affection that was absent when speaking to others.
Ning Xixi’s eyes were bright, "Thank you, Dabai."
"I should be thanking you for not selling me off!"
"Cough cough..."
Next to them, Wen Zhiyan, as if unable to bear it, suddenly stood up and left angrily.
"Hey? Why did she leave?" Ning Xixi murmured in confusion.
Ji Yebai glanced at her retreating figure, saying casually, "Perhaps she had something to do."
Ning Xixi didn’t notice, but he did—that Wen Zhiyan looked down on Ning Xixi.
This ten million not only preserved Ning Xixi’s mother’s bracelet but served as a warning to Wen Zhiyan!
...
Wen Zhiyan stood in the night wind for a long time, but Ji Yemo did not come out after her. She kicked a car door in both embarrassment and anger.
She had thought of herself as Ji Yemo’s girlfriend but couldn’t even compare to Ning Xixi!
Unexpectedly, that Little Gangster Girl was pretty crafty!
Nearby, two rebellious-looking girls squatted on the ground, puffing smoke and chatting gossip.
"Hey, did you hear? Ning Xixi isn’t her dad’s biological daughter!"
"I’ve got even more explosive news here, it seems like her dad has disowned her!"
"Damn, that’s harsh! What a pity for Ji Yebai, to be involved with such a woman..."
Wen Zhiyan cleared her throat, "Ji Yebai is the heir to the Ji family, the woman he marries should be of equal social standing, right?"
She recognized these two Little Gangster Girls, who actually came from prominent families but were rebellious by nature.
Thus, Wen Zhiyan thought of using these two to her advantage.
The Little Gangster Girls agreed with her, "Definitely! Master Ji will get tired of playing and ditch her sooner or later!"
"We must take the opportunity to teach her a lesson!"
"Mhm!"
Wen Zhiyan achieved her goal and left with her heels clicking.
Her lips curled high in satisfaction.
...
The auction was coming to an end, and the guests were leaving one by one.
Ji Yebai, holding onto Ning Xixi, intercepted Ji Qing on his inevitable way out—
"Mr. Ji, may I have a word?"
Ji Qing gave him a long and inscrutable look, then slowly said, "Since you’ve come to my villa, you might as well stay and have a cup of tea."
