"Okay." The follower tremblingly took out the jade talisman and sent a message to the head of the Ximen family, explaining the situation here.
The head of the Ximen family was a decisive man. When he heard what Ximen Ting did, he did not blame him, but readily agreed to Ximen Ting's request for spirit stones.
Ximen Ting felt relieved.
It was as if all the anger had flown away, and I felt relaxed all over.
After a while, he didn't hear Su Yuening raising the price, so he crossed his legs and tapped the table with his thick black fingers.
He snorted coldly, "It's only 500 million. Is that enough to scare you?"
"I really don't understand. What's the point of pretending if you don't have spirit stones?"
"No self-awareness at all."
Ximen Ting laughed heartily, feeling very proud, high-spirited and extremely cocky.
He just felt that Su Yuening was under his feet and was being trampled on.
It’s no use raising the price so much at the beginning.
Don’t we have to behave ourselves now?
He couldn't keep up with the five hundred million, so he overestimated Su Yuening.
The duck voice made a croaking sound when he laughed, and Su Yuening could even imagine Ximen Ting's ugly face and his smug look.
She suppressed her smile, sighed, and said, "Master Ximen is right. Five hundred million low-grade spirit stones really scared me."
"As expected of the first family, their wealth is so deep that it's beyond the reach of people like us."
Ximen Ting: “……?”
How come this is different from the plot he imagined?
Shouldn't I be provoked into arguing with him again?
Why are you so scared?
What about the passion for raising prices?
What about his bravery and fearlessness?
How come they all disappeared all of a sudden?
Ximen Ting's arrogant smile gradually faded.
He suddenly realized that if Su Yuening didn't raise the price...
He would spend 500 million to buy an item that was worth at most 20 million.
This thought made his hands and feet go cold.
Breaking out in a cold sweat.
A fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
His throat was dry and Ximen Ting couldn't help swallowing.
"Woman, you can even bid 400 million, so you must have plenty of spirit stones in your pocket. Why don't you raise the price? Are you planning to admit that you are inferior to our Ximen family?"
He wanted to use words to provoke Su Yuening and force her to raise the price.
Unfortunately, Su Yuening doesn't buy it.
She said casually, "Young Master Ximen has put so much effort into the auction. I am deeply moved and have decided not to compete anymore. I will give this treasure, the scroll, to you."
Ximen Ting: “……?”
What the hell, give it to him?
Give it to him?!
Was that overwhelming boldness a deliberate attempt to lure him into raising the price?
Was he tricked?
He spent a lot of money for nothing?
Su Yuening's words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Ximen Ting burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
He thought that Su Yuening would mock him a few times and then add another 100 million, but he didn't expect that she would give up and even threatened to give it to him?
Ximen Ting's expression changed unpredictably, and he spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
At this moment, he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
It’s all routine, routine.
Ximen Ting felt a tearing pain in his heart.
He was the eldest son of the Ximen family, but he was fooled in public.
Totally losing face.
He seriously suspected that Su Yuening was a hired assassin arranged by the Baicheng Auction House specifically to raise the price.
The target is people like him who are stupid.
