Song Dynasty poem: [? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ]

Song Sifan sent another message: [Tap]

Song Ci was now certain; his brother had indeed asked him to bid on the bracelet!

Song Ci: [Brother, wake up! Chasing after Sister Cat like this is completely useless, okay?]

Song Ci just couldn't understand why his brother couldn't figure out something so simple.

Song Sifan: [You don't need to talk nonsense, just shoot when I tell you to.]

At this point, the highest price had been reached. After Mu Jin raised the bid to 60 million, Ye Mingshi did not bid again.

Shen Yue, "Sixty million once, sixty million twice, sixty million..."

Just as she was about to bring down the gavel, Song Ci raised her sign.

Shen Yue's excited voice was almost off-key: "Seventy million! Mr. Song has offered seventy million!"

Cat stood on the stage. The bidding had been going on for a long time, and finally, she saw hope; it could end now…

Song Ci's classmates all looked at him.

Ye Mingshi rarely praised him, "Well done, so you didn't raise your paddle earlier because you thought the bid was too low."

Song Ci: "..."

He's not complaining about how cheap it is; he's just following orders.

Mu Jin glanced at him and said, "It's yours."

Song Ci: "..."

Why did he feel like they were waiting for him?

No one continued bidding, not even Mu Jin. In the end, the emerald bracelet was sold to Song Ci for 70 million.

Shen Yue carefully put the bracelet away. "Cat, thank you so much for your item."

The cat smiled, waved to the camera, and then came down, lifting her skirt.

She returned to her seat and immediately looked at Song Ci, saying, "Why did you take these pictures again?"

Song Ci: "..."

Although he felt this approach was a bit foolish, he still decided to expose the mastermind behind it all.

"Sister Cat, my brother asked me to take this picture."

Hearing this, the cat didn't seem surprised at all.

After all, Song Sifan can afford to spend 2 billion, so 70 million is a small amount.

Cat laughed, "Hehe, then go back and tell your brother that I have another set of emeralds like this. At today's price, does he want to buy them wholesale?"

Song Ci: "..."

"Sister Cat, may I ask you something? Where do you get so many emeralds? The jewelry industry goes crazy every year for a single emerald, how come you have so many?"

The cat kindly explained to him, "Oh dear, I accidentally found a large piece of emerald in my mine."

"Your mine?" Song Ci asked in surprise.

The cat nodded.

Song Ci: "...I'll ask my brother."

He had no idea that Sister Cat owned a mine; the Jiu family didn't seem to have any business in the jewelry industry...

The emerald bracelet for the cat was the highlight of the evening; after that, the auction was rather uneventful.

Ye Mingshi scrolled through Weibo and, unsurprisingly, saw a new trending topic.

#CatEmerald#

[If you don't understand, ask! What exactly is emerald? Is it jadeite?]

Emerald is not jade! It's a gemstone! One of the world's four most precious gemstones—ruby, blue, green, and diamond—emerald is among them! Emeralds are graded by color, and top-quality emeralds are truly priceless!

Emeralds fetch astronomical prices at every auction!

[As expected, it's trending on social media!]

[Another astronomical figure! Congratulations to Song Ci, the young master Song, a new member of Cat Cat's super fan club!]

Ye Mingshi shared this joy with Maomao, "Maomao, you're trending at number one again tonight."

The cat simply responded with a nonchalant "Oh."

Ye Mingshi was very keen on browsing trending topics. There were many topics about the Muyue Charity Gala tonight, but now, not only was Maomao ranked first in the individual trending topics, but she also had two other trending topics, ranked sixth and tenth.

#CatMuJin#

#CatGiantFanClub#

The trending topic about the pairing of Maomao and Mujin has been around for a while now, and fans have been discussing it enthusiastically.

[Sigh! If Song Ci hadn't bid, Mu Jin, the great god, could have joined the super-elite fan club of Maomao!]

[I think even if Mu Jin didn't manage to get a picture, she could still join the super-talented fan club!]

[Mu Jin is absolutely amazing! I support her!]

However, before long, a large number of trolls infiltrated each trending topic, frantically posting comments that were unkind to the cats.

[Last year they hyped up essays and walnuts, this year they're hyping up jade. Please, this is charity! Not your personal show, okay?]

[It goes without saying who it is, right? They insisted on showing off their superiority at a charity gala, how were the other celebrities supposed to react?]

[So you're just rich? Showing off your wealth is fine, but using charity as an excuse is really lame.]

[Sigh, this kind of hype is going to ruin the jewelry market! As public figures, can't they tone it down a bit?]

As a result, the trending topics suddenly became very chaotic.

Ye Mingshi noticed it quickly, and he frowned, "Hei Zi came really fast."

Upon hearing this, Song Ci couldn't help but check Weibo. "Who's got nothing better to do? Cat Sister is too eye-catching tonight, someone's jealous."

Hearing this, Maomao knew what was going on without even looking. Lanfeng sent her a message, telling her that they were already dealing with the online trolls.

Cat tugged at Mu Jin's sleeve, "Ah Jin, give me your phone."

Mu Jin looked at her, her eyes seeming to ask what she wanted to do.

Cat: "I'll only use it for a little while, ten minutes."

Mu Jin: "Five minutes."

The cat conceded slightly, "Eight minutes, is that okay?"
