"What did you say?"

Ji Mingxuan's expression suddenly changed drastically, "A fake?"

"Yes, didn't we say from the beginning that there's only one genuine piece?"

Zhang Han patiently explained, "Miss Yu Guanguan's brooch is real, so the one in Young Master Ji's hand must be fake."

These words caused an uproar in the audience.

"What? Yu Ziling's brooch is fake?"

"How could that be? Could it be that even Young Master Ji can make a mistake?"

"That's not necessarily true," someone said in a low voice. "The counterfeiting technology these days is incredibly advanced. Look at these two brooches; they look exactly the same to the naked eye. It's understandable that Young Master Ji can't tell the difference between the real and fake."

“But look at Quan Jingzhou, he is clearly very composed and elegant.”

A female guest couldn't help but cast an admiring glance at Quan Jingzhou and whispered, "Could it be that he could tell at a glance that Yu Ziling's dress was a fake?"

"If that's the case, it only means that Ji Mingxuan's level is not high enough. Compared to Quan Jingzhou, he is far inferior."

The others immediately mocked, "Spending 20 million on a fake? Even if you have money, you shouldn't spend it like that."

"What do you know?" someone immediately mocked. "That's called being passionate about charity."

The guests immediately erupted in jeers and laughter.

"..."

Hearing the laughter of the crowd, Ji Mingxuan clenched his fist tightly as he held the box.

"How could you, a mere host, possibly distinguish between truth and falsehood?"

The veins on the back of Ji Mingxuan's hand bulged as he forced himself to say, "I demand a professional appraisal."

He would never believe that he would lose so much face in front of everyone.

Could it be that he lost to Quan Jingzhou once again?

No, that's impossible!

"Of course, as a host, I can't authenticate them," Zhang Han said with a smile. "But as soon as we received the two brooches, we immediately had them authenticated by a professional institution."

He paused for a moment, then raised his voice and said, "It turns out that the brooch in Miss Yu Guanguan's hand is genuine. As for how Miss Yu Ziling obtained hers, that remains unknown."

This part was conducted secretly by the organizers.

Even Mo Anran didn't know.

So, as soon as Zhang Han finished speaking, the atmosphere at the scene became exciting again.

"So that's how it is..."

"In other words, the one that Yu Ziling has is indeed fake."

"Could it be that she knew it was fake too? And deliberately brought it out to try and pass it off as genuine?"

"Goodness gracious, this is fraudulent donation... What if the highest bidder isn't Ji Mingxuan, but someone else..."

"Isn't this blatant fraud?"

“That’s right, it’s a scam.” Someone immediately became indignant. “I never thought that Yu Ziling, the eldest daughter of the Yu family, would actually use counterfeit goods to cheat people.”

"They're clearly treating us like fools."

Everyone looked at Yu Ziling with disdain, their eyes filled with disgust.

"No, that's not it... I, I didn't cheat you out of money,"

Yu Ziling was utterly shocked. "No, it's impossible! My brooch is the real thing. You...you must have switched my things, right?"

She pointed frantically at Zhang Han and the others, shouting, "It must be you! You colluded with Yu Guanguan to switch my genuine item with her fake, didn't you? That must be it..."

“Miss Yu…”

Zhang Han was extremely impatient with this stubborn attitude and couldn't help but sarcastically remark, "It's just a brooch, not worth us doing anything behind the scenes."
