Chapter 28 Such a big family head, but he has no money
Perhaps because he was enjoying the melon, the other party also introduced another construction company to Pei Zhensheng. Although it is not as famous as Haizhou, its professional level is higher. Most importantly, the quotation is lower.
Pei Zhensheng was naturally happy. After returning, he immediately transferred 2 million to Pei Zhiwan's account.
"...Dad, what is the money you transferred to me?"
At the dinner table that night, Pei Zhiwan received a text message from the bank and couldn't help looking up at Pei Zhensheng, "Why did you transfer such a large sum to me?"
"Pocket money," Pei Zhensheng smiled and picked up food for Pei Zhiwan, "Don't worry about it, just spend your money."
Since he said so, Pei Zhiwan naturally didn't refuse.
Just kidding, only a fool would refuse such a good thing as money falling from the sky.
"By the way, there will be an auction in Nancheng in a few days. You should get ready and come with me then."
Pei Zhensheng suddenly remembered this matter and said directly at the dinner table, "I will give you another card later. When you see something you like, just buy it directly. Don't save money for your dad."
Since returning from Loris Restaurant, Lin Feng has been sending messages to Pei Zhiwan from time to time, asking her to go out and play together.
Pei Zhiwan always felt that Lin Feng seemed a little strange recently, so she never agreed.
Pei Zhiwan didn't take the auction seriously at first. It
was not until the day before the auction that Pei Zhensheng and Xu Qinghe quarreled about whether to bring Pei Zhiyi along, and Pei Zhiwan became somewhat interested.
"Then let my sister go with us."
Pei Zhiwan said, seeing how lively it was, "It's not good to lock up my sister all the time. Outsiders who don't know might think that we are deliberately abusing my sister."
There is some truth in what he said.
Xu Qinghe's attitude softened a little.
No matter what, Pei Zhiyi is still the adopted daughter of the Pei family, and she has to keep up appearances.
Besides, she has heard some rumors in the circle recently. It's said that the Pei family didn't care about the old relationship after finding their own daughter, and that Pei Zhiwan was so cruel that he didn't even let my sister go.
If Pei Zhiyi is not allowed to show up outside, who knows what kind of messy rumors will spread.
The night of the auction.
Pei Zhiwan wore a short black dress. The high thread count fabric was stiff but felt great. The dress was no longer than the knees, and the wide skirt was very fluffy, which made her waist look very slender.
To match the dress, she also changed into a pair of black velvet high heels with red soles, and with her bright red lips, her aura was fully turned on.
As soon as she walked into the auction venue, she immediately attracted the attention of many people in the venue.
The young masters and young ladies who had not attended the Pei family's welcoming banquet before were talking about it privately. The looks they cast were either amazing or disgusting, but Pei Zhiwan didn't care much.
Pei Zhiyi, however, didn't know if she really restrained herself or was planning to do something bad. This time, she didn't keep her usual style of wearing heavy makeup. She only picked a white long skirt, which was loose and didn't even have a waist. She didn't wear any makeup either, and she looked very plain.
"Zhiyi, it's been a long time since
we last met." The little sisters who usually played well with Pei Zhiyi came over and talked to her. "You don't like to wear such plain clothes, what's wrong with you today?"
Hearing this, Pei Zhiyi sniffed and quickly lowered her eyes and stopped looking at people.
"You all know my current situation at home," she said, choking with sobs, as if she had suffered a lot of grievances, looking like a little white flower, "I think it's better for me to stay out of the spotlight, so as not to make Zhiwan..." She
died at the end of this sentence.
Although Pei Zhiwan had been accompanying Xu Qinghe to greet her friends, he had been paying attention to Pei Zhiyi's situation. When he heard her say this, the corners of his lips curled up as if he had heard something funny.
"What sister said is interesting," she whispered something to Xu Qinghe, and then took a few steps to Pei Zhiyi, "Could it be that I taught you to elope with Zhou Shiyi overnight?"
Pei Zhiyi didn't expect Pei Zhiwan to talk about the events of the previous few days so openly, and the words that she wanted to say were choked in her throat and she couldn't say them. She just stared at her with her eyes wide open.
But Pei Zhiwan didn't intend to shut up.
She glanced at the girls around her, all of them were unfamiliar faces, and it seemed that they had never appeared at the welcoming banquet that day.
This was even more interesting.
"Or did I ask my sister to poison my drinks at my welcoming banquet?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around was stunned. It seemed that no one had expected that Pei Zhiyi, who was usually gentle and warm, would actually do such a thing.
Pei Zhiyi's face was frighteningly pale. She bit her lip and looked at Pei Zhiwan angrily. For a moment, it seemed that she wanted to strangle Pei Zhiwan to death with her own hands.
Pei Zhiyi opened her mouth, as if she wanted to explain something, but unfortunately, the reminder sound for the start of the auction sounded at this time.
The crowd dispersed at once, and Pei Zhiyi was forced to sit back in her seat.
The first few items at the auction were mediocre, and Pei Zhiwan had no interest in them. Until a sapphire necklace was placed on the auction table. The
sapphire inlaid on that necklace was of a large carat, the color was very pure, and the gloss was also very good. The inlay craftsmanship was extremely complicated, and it was simply a work of art that was rarely seen on the market.
[It's this necklace, the Tears of Aphrodite]
[I remember that this seems to be the relic of the mother of a big shot in Country A. In the original book, this necklace was bought by Pei Zhiyi and worn a few times before being returned to the big shot as a favor. ]
[Speaking of which, Pei Zhiyi has quite a few lickers. ]
[It's beautiful, but what a pity. ]
Thinking of this, Pei Zhiwan lowered his head to look at his phone again.
Xu Qinghe and Pei Zhensheng couldn't help but feel a little anxious when they heard this. What a pity? Why is it a pity? Help, who's a good person who only speaks half of the words.
Lin Feng was also anxious.
His seat was in the front row, and he couldn't help turning his head to look back.
The auction started soon, with a starting price of one million, and each bid must not be less than two hundred thousand.
Pei Zhiyi really took a fancy to the necklace and started bidding frequently at the beginning.
However, jewelry of this artistic level has attracted many people. The price was called up to five million when it was not too long.
Pei Zhiwan raised the sign a few times in the middle, but stopped bidding after seeing the price exceeded five million.
Xu Qinghe saw that Pei Zhiwan stopped bidding and thought she was stingy. She tilted her head and asked her several times, but Pei Zhiwan just shook her head and said she didn't like it that much.
Pei Zhiyi glanced at her and continued to bid complacently.
When the price was called up to eight million, Lin Feng suddenly started to raise the price frequently for some reason.
