She bought the Water Spirit Pearl because it contained powerful spiritual energy, but unexpectedly, it no longer had any spiritual energy.
No wonder Chu Yu didn't bid to the end and gave up easily.
She immediately felt cheated and angrily shouted, "Since this water spirit pearl has exhausted its spiritual energy and become useless, why was it put up for auction and made me bid a high price? Isn't this a scam? I want a refund!"
Mr. Lu retorted seriously, "Although this Water Spirit Pearl no longer has any spiritual energy, it is still a rare spiritual pearl in the world, a treasure. It also has the effects of strengthening the body, prolonging life, and suppressing evil spirits. Besides, when we were bidding, we did not mention that it had strong spiritual power, so it is not a lie. Your request to return it is purely unreasonable."
Fu Sisi was so angry she felt like she was going to vomit blood.
After all that, she ended up being ripped off again.
Jiang Huai'an, never one to shy away from stirring things up, laughed and added, "Haha, from now on I won't call you Miss Fu anymore, I'll just call you Sucker."
Someone burst out laughing.
Fu Sisi was furious. She pointed at Jiang Huai'an and cursed him. Then she looked angrily at Chu Yu and said through gritted teeth, "Even if I lost money buying the Water Spirit Pearl, didn't Chu Yu spend ten million on a broken bracelet? Her taste is terrible too."
Before Chu Yu could refute, Mr. Lu spoke first: "Miss Chu Yu has a good eye. That sandalwood bracelet has a water spirit bead, which is no ordinary thing."
Everyone was shocked to discover that the sandalwood bracelet actually contained a water spirit bead!
Fu Sisi asked incredulously, "How could there be a water spirit bead inside a sandalwood bracelet? It must be a lie."
Mr. Lu asked someone to bring over the sandalwood bracelet. He pointed to the bead on the bracelet with the yin-yang symbol and said, "This bead is the Water Spirit Bead. However, it is sealed with special materials, so it looks similar to an ordinary sandalwood bead. Ordinary people cannot tell the difference. Only a master of metaphysics with profound knowledge can tell the difference."
The entire audience erupted in cheers.
Everyone thought the sandalwood bracelet was just an ordinary antique, but unexpectedly, it contained a sealed water spirit bead.
In this way, it is worth more than the Water Spirit Pearl that Fu Sisi bought for 1 billion.
Chu Yu didn't get ripped off at all; she clearly got a great deal.
Everyone cast envious glances at Chu Yu.
Chu Yu smiled. During the auction, she immediately recognized that the bead in the sandalwood bracelet was a sealed water spirit bead, which is why she participated in the bidding. Since the others didn't recognize its value, it was a bargain for her.
Fu Sisi was devastated and cried out in despair, "Since there is a water spirit bead in this sandalwood bracelet, why wasn't it mentioned during the auction? You didn't collude with Chu Yu from the beginning to fool everyone here, did you?"
Mr. Lu's face darkened, and he rebuked him unhappily: "Nonsense! The reason this matter has not been made public is because that collector who took the money instructed him to do so. He wanted to find someone who knows the value of this sandalwood bracelet. Blame yourself for not knowing its value."
These words left Fu Sisi speechless.
“Miss Fu, the auction is over now. Don’t cause any more trouble here. Otherwise, our association has the right to blacklist you.”
Fu Sisi's heart skipped a beat.
If she is blacklisted by the auction association, she will not only be unable to participate in auctions in the future, but will also be isolated by high-end business circles, and she will no longer be able to get along with the elite circles in Beijing.
She immediately backed down, apologized, and dared not say another word.
Grandpa Lu didn't want to see her anymore, so he waved her off, telling her to pay and leave quickly.
She had no choice but to comply, pay the bill, and leave with her entourage in a dejected manner. As she walked out the door, she turned back to look at Chu Yu and gritted her teeth.
This isn't over between her and me. Just you wait and see!
After Fu Sisi left, Grandpa Lu came to Chu Yu and praised her highly: "Miss Chu, it is rare for someone so young to have such discerning eyes."
Chu Yu smiled modestly: "I visited some collectors with my master before and learned about appraisal from them, so I know a little bit about it."
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Is that so? You are welcome to come anytime when there is an auction next time."
Chu Yu nodded: "Okay."
Seeing that they got along well, Fu Yunche looked at Chu Yu with increasing appreciation.
Mr. Lu was very demanding, and most people wouldn't meet his standards. The fact that Chu Yu was praised by him shows how outstanding she was.
During their conversation, suddenly, with a snap, the lights in the room went out, plunging the room into darkness.
Before anyone could react, a powerful gust of evil wind suddenly blew in from the window, howling like a hurricane. Everyone was blown to the ground, and even tables and chairs were overturned. Everyone gasped in surprise, and chaos ensued.
Chu Yu was shielded beneath Fu Yunche. After the gust of evil wind subsided, he asked urgently, "How are you?"
"I'm fine."
Chu Yu replied and looked up at him. Unexpectedly, in the instant the evil wind struck, Fu Yunche actually rushed over and shielded her with his body. A touch of emotion flashed through her heart, and she asked with concern, "How are you? Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine."
Fu Yunche helped her up from the ground.
Chu Yu looked around, her eyebrows furrowing slightly. Why did an evil wind suddenly blow by? Could it be that some evil spirit was causing trouble?
The thought had barely crossed my mind when a staff member cried out urgently, "Something's wrong! The sandalwood bracelet is missing!"
Everyone was startled.
Mr. Lu shouted urgently, "Then hurry up and go find it!"
As the staff went to search, Chu Yu, with her sharp eyes, noticed the curtains across the way fluttering, and a sinister aura carrying the sandalwood bracelet flew out of the window.
Chu Yu's heart tightened, and she hurriedly instructed Fu Yunche: "An evil spirit has come in and stolen the sandalwood bracelet. You take some people and wait here. I'll go and get it back."
The moment the words were spoken, she had already rushed out.
Seeing Chu Yu chase after him, Jiang Huai'an quickly got up from the ground and followed: "Hey, junior sister, wait for me!"
When Jiang Huai'an chased after her, Chu Yu had already disappeared. He muttered in bewilderment, "Junior Sister's speed is too fast! How could she disappear without a trace?"
Before he could finish speaking, a sinister aura flashed from the end of the corridor. His face darkened, and he cried out urgently, "Evil spirit, where do you think you're going?"
He hurriedly chased after him.
On the other side, Chu Yu followed the evil aura to the garden in the backyard of the hotel. The surroundings were quiet and deserted, filled with a black mist and a sinister atmosphere.
"Hahaha……"
A sharp, wild, and eerie laugh came from above.
Chu Yu looked up and saw nothing but dark clouds in the sky, clearly indicating that evil spirits were lurking in the shadows.
She wasn't about to sit idly by and wait to die. She pulled an exorcism talisman from her pocket and tossed it into the air. The talisman exploded with a bang, the surrounding black mist dissipated, and a crystal skull, carrying immense resentment, rushed out from the flower bushes opposite and attacked her.
Chu Yu lightly touched the ground with her toes and leaped away, avoiding the skull's attack.
After landing, when the skull attacked again, she casually threw out an attack talisman. The talisman transformed into a sharp dart in mid-air and pierced through the skull with a whoosh.
