A short while later, Ni Yan and Connie Ya also came in and sat in the upper left corner of the room.

The first batch of items to be auctioned were the most valuable ones.

Yi Shuihan's gems were among them.

The largest one is a ruby, weighing one hundred carats, which attracted everyone's attention as soon as it appeared.

The starting bid was 20 million, and it was auctioned off for 200 million in less than five minutes.

It was finally sold for 230 million.

The winner is Ni Yan.

Connie, whose face had been grim since she entered the room, finally managed a slight smile after Ni Yan won the bid for the gem.

She glanced at Xiao Qingyin with a hint of provocation in her eyes.

Xiao Qingyin returned a smile.

"Thanks."

Connie frowned.

Doesn't Xiao Qingyin realize she's showing off her relationship? She actually thanked her?

Xiao Qingyin: Hehe, of course I have to thank you. If you hadn't driven up the price, this gem wouldn't have fetched such a high price.

The other gems were also very popular, and together they sold for 300 million.

The proceeds from one auction are enough for Yi Shuihan to buy one or two large villas in the city center.

She spent three million to buy that watch.

When I went to get the watch, Ni Yan and Connie were also there.

When she put the watch on Yi Shuihan's wrist, Ni Yan's face was extremely ugly, like a husband who had returned home from a business trip and found his wife in bed with a strange man.

Connie seemed oblivious to his expression. Holding the newly acquired ruby ​​up to the light, she casually asked, "Ni Yan, do you think this gem is better used as a pendant or a cabochon?"

Ni Yan regained her composure and said, "Let's make a cabochon; the size will be just right after cutting."

Connie chuckled, "I think so too, but I already have several gemstone rings of similar size, and I want to change to a different style."

"How about we collect another one and make a pair of earrings?"

"That's a good idea."

The two then asked the staff.

"Does the seller who consigned the gem to you have any other gems of the same size as this one? We'd like to buy another one."

"Please wait a moment, we'll contact them."

Not long after the staff left, Yi Shuihan's phone rang.

He answered the phone and said succinctly, "We still have some, but we're not selling them for now."

Connie froze.

Are all the gems auctioned today the property of this incredibly handsome man?

Isn't this the male model Xiao Qingyin found?

Ni Yan also felt that things couldn't possibly be such a coincidence.

However, he was always good at reading people and soon noticed that the staff were unusually enthusiastic towards Xiao Qingyin and the man, no less so than they were towards him and Connie.

They only bid on a three-million-dollar watch; do they deserve the same level of hospitality?

Who exactly is that man?

He gave Yi Shuihan a gloomy look, and as soon as he left the auction, he contacted his assistant: "Help me investigate someone."
