Country M.

Rong Jing and Si Yichen arrived at an auction gala.

Unlike other galas, tonight's gala was not overly formal or grand.

Therefore, it was a mix of people from all walks of life, including celebrities, businessmen, commoners, nobles, and so on.

The party was held in an old private villa.

It is said that this luxurious villa was provided by the Smith family of the United States.

The Smith family does not charge any rental fees; anyone can rent the property, and there is no class discrimination.

It can host auction galas, arts and crafts exhibitions, business cocktail parties, and so on.

Exhibitions open to the general public are eligible to apply for rental.

Anyone can rent this space as long as they don't use underhanded methods or endanger their lives.

Whenever an event is held here, the Smith family will also arrange for people to guard the place and maintain order.

Tonight's auction features a wide variety of items.

There are priceless jewels, antiques and paintings with a long history, and exquisitely crafted handmade items, etc.

Many appraisers carefully examined each auction item with magnifying glasses.

Because the items are different, they are auctioned in separate sections.

Starting bids vary.

Places with high starting bids are often frequented by wealthy, well-dressed individuals.

The places with low starting bids are mostly occupied by ordinary people dressed simply.

Rong Jing and Si Yichen sat in the jewelry auction area.

8 PM.

The auction has officially begun.

"Distinguished guests, welcome to tonight's auction gala. The exciting moment is about to begin. Without further ado, let's start with the first item."

The auctioneer wasn't dressed very formally; he wore a white undershirt with a thin denim jacket over it, and medium-length white trousers.

The simple and casual attire made the auction gala seem less formal and serious.

After the auctioneer finished speaking, a waiter standing behind the curtain came out carrying a transparent tray.

The tray was also covered with a festive red cloth.

When the waiter approached the auctioneer, he stopped and waited for the auctioneer to reveal the items inside.

"This first item is quite special. It comes from the legendary Liuli Island mine and is called 'One Drop of Red.' It has the effect of nourishing blood. Men can use it to strengthen their bodies, and women can use it to beautify their skin. It has many benefits."

The auctioneer described the auction items beside him in a very methodical manner.

Immediately afterwards, he lifted the red cloth on top with one hand.

A perfectly translucent piece of blood jade was displayed before everyone.

The people in the audience were eager to participate, waiting for the auctioneer to call the bid.

The eloquent auctioneer pointed to the blood jade and continued his introduction.

"This piece of blood jade is hard-won and extremely precious. It's rare to see it appear in the world today, so don't miss it if you're passing by. If you don't like its unearthed appearance, that's okay. You can take a picture of it and have someone customize a style you like."

"Now let's begin the bidding. The starting price is one million. Let's start raising our paddles now."

Many of the wealthy women in the audience, upon hearing that it could improve complexion and blood circulation, were naturally unwilling to let this treasure slip by.

People were seen raising their paddles and bidding in turn.

"I'll offer three million."

A woman dressed in an expensive dress raised her bidding paddle, hoping that this piece of blood jade could please her wealthy mother-in-law who disliked her.

The woman in the haute couture suit next to her naturally wanted to compete with the woman in the high-end dress for the piece of blood jade.

She was determined to obtain this rare treasure that would greatly enhance her appearance.

Then, the woman in the haute couture suit shouted out her price, "I'll offer six million."

However, they were not the only ones who wanted this treasure.

"I'll offer eight million."

"I'll offer nine million."

"I'll offer ten million."

......

The auction price of blood jade is getting higher and higher, even exceeding the estimated price of appraisers.

Ultimately, the blood jade was auctioned off for 20 million yuan to a simply dressed middle-aged man.

Everyone looked at him with a remarkable appearance and were puzzled.

He's already so strong and healthy, why would he need this piece of blood jade to benefit his body?

The man looked calmly at the stage, ignoring the gazes of the crowd.

"If you ask me, no matter how good this blood jade is, it's not worth everyone fighting tooth and nail to bid for it. I think it's not as valuable as the blood jade marrow in my family."

Si Yichen crossed his legs, clasped his hands, and shook his head.

Rong Jing rolled his eyes at him.

It turns out this is a blatant display of power to them.

Following that, several more items were sold at auction.

As expected, the later episodes became more and more interesting.

And the starting price is getting higher and higher.

"I've heard that one of the items in this auction is a legendary love story, and I'd really like to see it. This is Mr. William's masterpiece, the only unparalleled treasure among all his works."

Si Yichen said with anticipation.

Rong Jing came because of it.

He had never seen the true face of the woman he was so deeply in love with, but he had a gut feeling that this Mrs. Rong would be very suitable for him.

Su Yinwan's smiling face flashed through Rong Jing's mind instantly.

He was completely addicted to her.

Just as Rong Jing was missing Su Yinwan, the auctioneer's tense and deep voice rang out.

"The next item is the work of the design master Mr. William. It is a product of his and his wife's hard work and love."

Due to the rarity of the auctioned item, this heartfelt love story was escorted out by a special car.

Unlike the previous auction items, it was not covered by a red cloth, but protected in a bulletproof transparent glass case.

It is evident that it is extremely rare.

When their heartfelt love was revealed to the public, the bustling scene instantly fell silent.
