Xing Fei, sitting next to Ji Zhinan, really had to do her best to hold back her laughter.
The funniest joke this year is that the daughter of Greenland Group, a Fortune 500 company, looks down on Ling Yin-Warrens' daughter.
Her father, Ling Yin, is the head of the Warrens family. Her brother is the current CEO of the Warrens Group. Her husband is Gu Yibei. Her parents-in-law are of royal lineage from Country Y. Even she herself has a net worth of billions, okay?
A brainless rich girl who only cares about her father's connections looks down on Nan Nan? Calls Nan Nan a nobody?
LOL.
Let alone Ji Zhinan, Xing Fei was too lazy to argue with her about these things, after all, there was no sense of superiority in winning an argument against an idiot.
The auction officially began, starting with items donated by a minor celebrity. This celebrity clearly had powerful connections, and soon several business executives were bidding against each other, eventually buying a small item for several million.
As time went on, one item after another was auctioned off.
Liang Wanyin donated a dress she had once worn, which she supposedly wore when dancing with some prince. She boasted about it endlessly.
Led by General Manager Yang, several small company bosses immediately started bidding against each other to curry favor with Liang Wanyin, quickly raising the price from a little over one million to five million, before finally stopping at 6.66 million.
"Congratulations to Mr. Yang Peizhu, Chairman of Yangliu Group, on acquiring the dress donated by Ms. Liang Wanyin, General Manager of Greenland Group, for 6.66 million yuan. Thank you both for your help to charity. On behalf of the poor children, thank you for your help."
Those present applauded, and Liang Wanyin and the General Manager Yang stood up and smiled at everyone.
After sitting down, Liang Wanyin immediately glanced smugly at the person next to her: "I got five million in donations for poor children, unlike someone who never held up a sign from the beginning, afraid that he couldn't afford it? How ridiculous."
Ji Zhinan stared straight ahead, not even glancing at her. "The Pengfei Group that I acquired has already started construction. It will become the most luxurious public toilet in Beijing. And the Mu Group that I just acquired recently, the designer showed me the design drawings of the public bathhouse yesterday, and we are now choosing an auspicious day to start construction."
Ji Zhinan turned his head and looked at her with a forced smile: "Besides public toilets and public bathhouses, I've been thinking about what other public facilities we can build. I've even thought about which company to hire to build them."
"Ha." Liang Wanyin sneered, "Such arrogance! Our family is a Fortune 500 company. You think you can bring down Greenland Group? Dream on!"
"Shut up, will you?" Xing Fei couldn't help but speak in her Shandong accent.
"Miss Liang, remember to carry a toothbrush with you next time you go out, and brush your teeth whenever you want. Your breath smells worse than my athlete's foot."
"!"
As soon as Xing Fei finished speaking, Ji Zhinan frowned and gently reprimanded her: "Xiao Fei, people should respect each other. How could you say such a thing about Miss Liang?"
Xing Fei pouted: "Oh."
Ji Zhinan said, "Who doesn't know that Miss Liang has a foul mouth? Miss Liang herself knows it, and I believe she's already trying her best to control herself. Why don't you just say it outright? Doesn't she have any pride?"
Xing Fei quickly admitted her mistake: "Oh, I'm sorry."
Liang Wanyin: "!!!!!!!"
...
Ji Zhinan and Xing Fei were both sharp-tongued, exchanging barbs without explicitly stating anything, but they thoroughly infuriated Liang Wanyin.
Luckily, she was young and didn't have any heart problems, otherwise she would have been so angry that she would have died on the spot.
The auction quickly progressed to its second half. There wasn't anything that Ji Zhinan liked in the earlier auctions, so she hadn't raised her paddle until this particular item came up, which piqued her interest.
