Wow--!

The moment Xiao You introduced her, Xu Yao's already bright and lively eyes were suddenly completely illuminated by that intoxicating pinkish-purple color!

Her breath seemed to pause for a moment, her small mouth slightly open, and the exquisite brilliance of the bracelet was clearly reflected in her pupils.

Wow...so beautiful! This color is simply perfect for her!

However, treasures of this caliber are incredibly expensive, and she could never afford them.

Even Qin Yumo, who was used to seeing top-quality jewelry and jade, couldn't hide the amazement and appreciation in her beautiful eyes as she gazed at the violet bracelet.

This bracelet... is indeed a rare and exquisite piece.

It is impeccable in terms of its seed quality, color, and craftsmanship.

Du Zhe, after all, was Qin Yumo's "fiancé." Although it was obvious to everyone that he was a sycophant, he himself seemed to enjoy it.

Seeing the faint smile on Qin Yumo's lips and the admiration in her eyes as she gazed at the bracelet, his sycophantic heart was instantly ignited!

Yumo loves it! She'll definitely love it! This bracelet is so beautiful, it suits Yumo perfectly!

He immediately puffed out his chest, a surge of impulse rising within him that thought, "What's wrong with spending a fortune to win a smile from a beautiful woman?" He was about to press the bidding button to give Qin Yumo a surprise.

However, Zhou Yang's gaze fell on Xu Yao beside him.

Despite Xu Yao's efforts to conceal it, how could he escape the fleeting longing and subsequent sadness in her large, seemingly composed eyes?

Silly girl, if you like someone, just say so, don't pretend.

What girl doesn't love these shiny, glistening, pretty things?

Jade and other precious stones are a love ingrained in the DNA of Chinese women.

Zhou Yang chuckled inwardly, having already made up his mind.

He was determined to get this bracelet for Xu Yao!

Just a fraction of a second before Du Zhe was about to press the bidding button, Qin Yumo's clear, melodious voice rang out.

"Du Zhe, this bracelet is beautiful, but the color doesn't seem to match my usual style."

She smiled sweetly, her eyes sparkling, but she glanced at Zhou Yang without leaving a trace.

Zhou Yang was staring intently at the close-up of the bracelet on the big screen. His slender fingers lightly tapped the tablet in front of him, and he had already entered the online auction page.

Sure enough, Mr. Zhou also took a liking to it.

This bracelet complements Miss Xu Yao's temperament perfectly.

It's just a bracelet; how could it be more important than Mr. Zhou's SVIP customer's feelings?

Qin Yumo was incredibly intelligent and instantly understood everything.

She smiled at Du Zhe, but her tone left no room for argument: "I saw a few more pieces of jewelry in the catalog that look quite exquisite. Perhaps there are some that I like better. This bracelet... it's up to Mr. Zhou to decide if he's interested in buying it."

Upon hearing this, Du Zhe's raised hand froze in mid-air, his face displaying a complex array of expressions, from excitement to astonishment, and then to a barely perceptible hint of disappointment.

Yu Mo...doesn't like it? Or...doesn't she want him to give her a ride?

He felt a tightness in his chest.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yao's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Zhou Yang.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yang smiled and said, "Then thank you very much, Miss Qin, for your generosity."

Zhou Yang really wants to buy it?!

She subconsciously reached out her small hand and gently tugged at Zhou Yang's sleeve, her voice barely audible, tinged with a hint of panic.

"Zhou Yang, I...I don't want it, it's too valuable..."

In her opinion, how could you just buy something worth millions or even tens of millions of dollars?

Zhou Yang turned his head and looked at Xu Yao's conflicted eyes, which seemed to say "I want it but I can't have it," and couldn't help but chuckle.

He reached out his finger and gently pinched her slightly pouting lips, shaking them playfully like a little duck: "No, you want to."

He leaned close to her ear, his warm breath brushing against her sensitive earlobe, his voice deep and domineering.

"You're my girlfriend, and I wanted to buy it for you. It's that simple. If you like it, and I think you'll look even prettier wearing it, that's enough."

He paused, then added a teasing tone, "Besides, if you refuse this and that too many times, I might really stop buying things for you in the future, okay? Don't cry then."

"Hmm..."

With his hand pinching her lips, Xu Yao could only make muffled sounds, her cheeks instantly turning as red as a ripe apple.

Zhou Yang released her hand, allowing her to catch her breath. Her eyes reddened, and mist instantly welled up in them, making them sparkle like two pools of clear spring water.

"Okay...you buy it for me..."

Her voice was choked with emotion, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

A mix of emotions welled up inside me: being touched, feeling sweet, and a little bit wronged and helpless.

Besides Zhou Yang, there is no one else in the world who treats her so well.

He was always like this, domineering yet gentle, giving her the best of everything without ever asking if she deserved it, only whether she wanted it.

Du Zhe watched from the side, his eyelids twitching, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

Master is indeed master; even his skill in picking up girls is so high! Look at how touched Xu Yao is!

And look at me...sigh!

He glanced at Qin Yumo furtively and saw that she looked perfectly normal, seemingly unconcerned about Zhou Yang and Xu Yao's intimacy, and was simply elegantly taking a sip of her tea.

Since Yu Mo doesn't want it, but his master does, then... he should just stay quiet and be a good disciple.

Du Zhe silently withdrew his hand, and the little bit of unease in his heart vanished.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the auction room has been completely ignited by this pinkish-purple jadeite bangle!
