Although she was determined to get it, she didn't need to fight to the bitter end if it exceeded the value of the item itself, since she was a rather stingy person.

She has money, but her money is useful.

The auction had already begun, and the first item on display was a small pill that was extremely popular on the black market, supposedly capable of curing all sorts of intractable diseases.

If it were the old Wen Lu, she wouldn't have given it a second glance, but today Wen Lu suddenly became very interested in this thing, and her broken body might need it.

Even if it costs ten million a bottle, it's not like she can't afford it. Even if it doesn't work, she can still buy it and eat it like candy.

Thinking of this, Wen Lu raised the paddle in his hand and participated in the auction.

The competition for the small pills wasn't very fierce. After several rounds, Wen Lu successfully spent 30 million to bid for three bottles of the small pills.

The subsequent auction items were all high-tech products, but Wen Lu had no interest in them at all. She simply listened quietly to the winning bids, calculating how much money she could make from the auction.

Just as Wen Lu was getting drowsy, the auction reached its climax as the organizers presented the penultimate item: an ancient jade piece.

Looking at the piece of ancient jade on the red velvet cloth, which was as white as mutton fat, Wen Lu instantly sobered up.

Although she didn't come for this thing, the moment she saw it, she had a feeling that it was hers.

She didn't understand why she had this feeling, but Wen Lu had indeed developed a strong interest in this ancient jade and wanted to take it home.

The host enthusiastically introduced the ancient jade on the stage, but no matter how much he introduced it, he couldn't explain its origin. Instead, he added a strong sense of mystery to the jade.

Starting bid: 3.88 million.

When the host announced the starting price, the dimly lit hall became lively, with shouts of bidding rising and falling, until finally someone offered 50 million.

"Fifty million once..."

"Fifty million twice..."

"Fifty million...three..."

Sixty million!

Just as the auctioneer was about to bring down the gavel, Wen Lu slowly raised the bidding paddle in her hand, her voice soft and sweet, a stark contrast to the rough and mature bidding voices from before.

Everyone present turned their attention to Wen Lu, and some even questioned her identity.

"A young girl? Is she here to cause trouble? Are you organizers sure she has the financial means? If she can't afford it, it will affect us."

"That's right, where did this little girl come from? Security, get her out of here! This auction doesn't count, I demand a re-auction!"

"I don't believe a little girl could come up with so much money. Maybe it's someone's child who came to play?"

The people present were talking amongst themselves, which made the host unconsciously question Wen Lu's identity. However, everyone who was able to enter had a legitimate admission ticket, and the situation those people were talking about would never happen.

"Everyone, calm down. Since no one believes this lady, let's have her pay the balance now. If she pays successfully, please apologize to her."

"However, if this young lady is here to cause trouble, then we also have our own rules!"

After the host finished speaking, he had a staff member from backstage bring over a machine. Each person had a corresponding number, which was also linked to a bank card in the system, ensuring that no one would have the chance to skip out on their bill.

"That's right. If this lady can pay the balance, we are willing to apologize to her. But if she can't, then please apologize to us. She's wasting our time."

"That's right, our time is so precious, and it's been wasted on her perverse sense of humor. Who will make up for our loss?"

"Quiet down. The fact that this young lady was able to get in means she has the ability. Don't make things too difficult for her."

Just as those people were verbally attacking Wen Lu, a soft female voice rang out, contrasting sharply with the chaotic noise in the hall. Like a clear spring, it extinguished everyone's irritable emotions.

"So Miss Wen is here too~"

Someone recognized Wen Xingwan's voice and quickly spoke to her in a flattering tone, as if the loud noise from before hadn't come from him.

"Miss Wen? Is she Wen Xingwan, the eldest daughter of the Wen family in the capital? I heard that the Wen family is going to form a marriage alliance with the Wang family. Could this Miss Wen be the fiancée of the Wang family's heir?"

"It's her. I didn't expect her to come to Shenzhen. It seems there's something at this auction that will interest people in Beijing."

A group of people whispered about Wen Xingwan's identity. Wen Lu's gaze also turned to Wen Xingwan's direction, and a slight smile appeared on his lips, making it hard to understand.

It seems this collateral branch is thriving in the capital; the blame lies with her for showing mercy back then.

Despite this incident, everyone still remembered Wen Lu's matter and began urging the backstage staff to hurry up.

Wen Lu adjusted her baseball cap and nodded slightly to the approaching staff, indicating her willingness to cooperate.

Wen Lu's pretty face was hidden under the brim of her hat, so the staff couldn't see her clearly. However, seeing her beautiful chin and cherry-red lips, they could tell that this little girl must be extremely stunning.

The staff member politely placed the card reader in front of Wen Lu and said to her in a very courteous tone, "Please enter your password."

Wen Lu extended her slender, jade-like fingers and entered a six-digit password into the machine. Soon, a mechanical female voice rang out in the quiet hall: "Transaction successful."

The deal was now a done deal, and the atmosphere in the room was even quieter than before.

The host on stage looked at the crowd in the seats and coughed awkwardly. He suddenly realized that he had gone too far with what he had said earlier, and he was afraid he was not qualified to make these people apologize.

Actually, he also had his own selfish motives. He also thought that this young girl was there to cause trouble and was worried that the jade disc would fail to sell at auction. He didn't expect that this young girl would prove him wrong with her money.

"Congratulations again to Ms. 0927 for winning her desired item. Now let's move on to the next item..."

After a moment's hesitation, the host decided to stop discussing the issue and began urging the next step of the process.

"Shouldn't an apology be issued?"

The soft, sweet voice rang out once again in the venue, but this time it carried a hint of coolness.
