The auctioneer slowly opened the box. Every movement, including his expression, was dramatic, like a wonderful performance.
However, the moment the lid of the box was opened, the auctioneer, who always managed his facial expressions very well, suddenly lost control of his expression. The smile on his face was instantly replaced by shock, followed by panic.
Seeing him just standing there with the lid open, everyone couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Why are you staring blankly? Open it quickly!"
The auctioneer was a professional after all. He quickly composed himself, slowly closed the lid, and forced a smile. "Sorry, everyone. The staff may have made a mistake with the item. I'll have someone replace it right away."
The people in charge of security below the stage immediately rushed up. After seeing what was in the box, their faces became extremely gloomy. The security team leader immediately arranged for people to move the box containing the stones, and then led a team of people to quickly leave towards the right passage.
"What's going on? How could such an important item be mixed up? Did something happen?" someone raised questions.
The auctioneer naturally would not tell the truth. He just tried his best to appease everyone and asked them to wait for a while.
They waited for an hour, and even the most insensitive people knew something had happened, probably something serious.
They wanted to leave, but there were many bodyguards and policemen in the auction hall, guarding all the entrances and exits of the auction hall and not allowing anyone to enter or leave.
Judging from the situation, it will take some time to get out of here.
If someone needs to go to the bathroom urgently, it is allowed, but they must be accompanied by a police officer.
Song Yun followed the crowd and went to the bathroom behind the other ladies. She remembered that there was a small window in the bathroom that could be opened to see outside.
Entering the small compartment, Song Yun slowly opened the small window in the compartment a crack.
Outside was the street scene. Several police cars were parked outside, and a dozen armed policemen were guarding the side door, discussing something nervously.
Song Yun frowned, feeling a little uneasy, not knowing whether Qi Mo Nan had escaped.
Back in the auction hall, she saw a familiar figure in the area reserved for bodyguards. It was Jiang Ganmei. He was back.
Song Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Ganmei was back, which proved that Qi Mo Nan had escaped.
Soon, a group of police and bodyguards searched the entire Mingzhu Mansion, but naturally found nothing. At this time, everyone had been trapped in the auction hall for two hours, and many people had begun to make trouble.
None of the people who came to the auction were ordinary people, so the organizers and the police station did not dare to go too far and finally had to let them go.
Song Yun left Mingzhu Mansion with a whole box of earth-gold beads. Just as she was about to get into the car Jiang Ganmei had driven to the door, she suddenly heard a clear and pleasant female voice behind her, "Cousin Zhenzhen."
Song Yun turned around and met Ruan Ruan's eyes full of smiles. The smile was warm and gentle, entering her eyes and coming from her heart. Song Yun could feel the emotions that Ruan Ruan released towards her.
She smiled sweetly, "Cousin Ruan Ruan, I'm Song Yun."
Ruan Ruan was stunned for a moment, then she felt relieved. She should change her name, after all, she had to leave that place.
"Cousin, where do you live? Let me take you home." Song Yun suggested.
Ruan Ruan said, "I'm staying at the Hyatt Hotel. How about you? Is it on your way?"
"Yes, I'll stay at the Hyatt Hotel too." Song Yun said with a smile.
Ruan Ruan had her own car and bodyguard, but she wanted to talk to Song Yun, so she accepted Song Yun's suggestion, let the bodyguard follow behind, said goodbye to Huang Ying, and got into Song Yun's car.
