Chapter 466 Mrs. Shang sounds better than Miss Pei!
Auction.
It has attracted many wealthy and influential figures and high-society celebrities.
The items up for auction are priceless.
Security measures were implemented at multiple levels, with exceptionally rigorous procedures.
Shang Shiyan and Pei Jinwu were seated in the front row VIP seats.
"Would you two like some drinks?"
The waiter respectfully presented the wine tray and asked, "Red wine or coffee?"
"Could you please get my fiancée a new glass of mango juice? She doesn't drink alcohol."
Shang Shiyan glanced at it and spoke calmly.
fiancée?
The servant glanced at Pei Jinwu beside him in surprise. Was this the future mistress of Beizhou?
She certainly has an extraordinary aura.
"yes."
The attendant nodded and then asked, "Master Shang, what about you?"
"I?"
After a few seconds of thought, Shang Shiyan slowly said, "Plain water."
Plain boiled water?
In such situations, the usual drinks are red wine and coffee, or juice.
This is the first time I've ever seen someone drink plain water.
"If you're not driving, why aren't you drinking red wine?"
Pei Jinwu looked at him curiously, and a lazy voice slowly rang out.
I remember he quite liked red wine.
"Um."
Shang Shiyan held her hand, his eyes filled with love, and said in a soft voice, "From now on, you need to eat healthily and control these things."
Especially alcohol and carbonated drinks should be avoided if possible.
"???"
Pei Jinwu was completely confused and wondered what had gotten into him.
Side passage.
Suddenly a commotion broke out.
It's her.
Pei Jinwu looked over and saw that the woman was wearing a red retro long dress and seven-centimeter high heels.
Her hair was styled beautifully, and a black veil hung in front of her forehead, covering half of her face.
Even if you can't see her face clearly, her figure is stunning and her demeanor elegant.
Its appearance quickly attracted everyone's attention.
Qu Qingli.
A renowned beauty in Xuanzhou.
What a pity.
She has a rather eccentric personality, and her methods are even more ruthless.
It is said that a couple of years ago, a tycoon took a liking to her and wanted to sleep with her.
Qu Qingli refused to yield even unto death, nearly kicking the other man's genitals off.
Finally, thanks to the intervention of the continental owner, Qu Qingli had to pay out six months' worth of casino revenue to settle the matter.
No one knows why the continental lord helped her.
Qu Qingli didn't know either.
But from then on, no man dared to have any designs on her.
The casinos he founded were absolutely unruly.
More striking than she herself was the masked man beside her.
As if afraid of being taken away by other women, Miss Qu always wrapped her beloved pet up tightly whenever she took him out.
Don't say it.
Outsiders are quite curious about what the little pet looks like.
"Ms. Qu, this way please." The staff immediately led her to a VIP seat on the right side of the venue.
Pei Jinwu and Shang Shiyan, who were in the VIP seats on the left, were a few empty seats apart.
After taking their seats.
Qu Qingli subconsciously looked to the side and found that the man next to her looked familiar.
It seems to be someone I met at the bar last night.
Upon closer inspection...
Isn't this Shang Shiyan, the overlord of the Northern Continent and president of the Shang Group?
He's also at this auction?
Indeed, she possesses an elegant demeanor and a beautiful appearance.
So the girl next to him is his fiancée, whom he just officially announced a few days ago?
Qu Qingli put down his bag, crossed his slender legs, leaned back gracefully, and looked at his fiancée.
She wanted to see.
What kind of girl could possibly conquer Shang Shiyan, this great demon king?
The girl was wearing a black baseball cap and sitting in a relaxed posture, holding a glass of juice in her hand.
Unfortunately, I couldn't see her face clearly; I could only vaguely sense that she was a very young beauty.
Qu Qingli became somewhat interested and was preparing to search for information about her.
A bank manager suddenly came over and greeted her: "Ms. Qu, it's been a long time."
Qu Qingli went over to exchange pleasantries and forgot about the matter.
After a brief chat.
The auction has officially begun.
Qu Qingli took a fancy to a horsewhip.
Chi Ying-chou is currently learning to ride a horse and needs a handy tool.
That's how you can learn quickly and catch up with your "older brother".
Thinking of the boy who grew up with her in the orphanage, who gave her countless moments of warmth, but who perished in a fire at the prime of his life...
Qu Qingli felt a slight throbbing in her heart.
He was an exceptionally good equestrian; if he were still alive, he would probably have won many awards by now.
When thoughts are racing—
"Mr. Qu, what are you looking at?"
The voice of Chi Yingzhou beside her brought her back to her senses.
"Um?"
Qu Qingli quickly composed herself and smiled faintly: "It's nothing."
"..."
The puppy walked past her, his gaze landing on Shang Shiyan's face, his brow furrowing slightly.
This guy is indeed very good-looking, but he's not Mr. Qu's type, is he?
What is President Qu staring at him for?
——
The auction began soon.
Throughout the entire process, Pei Jinwu showed little interest in these overpriced pieces of junk.
He lazily nestled on the sofa playing games, occasionally glancing up at the auction items.
“Grandma likes jade, how about this one?” Shang Shiyan asked.
“It suits her quite well.” Pei Jinwu lifted her eyelids, looked at the jade bracelet with excellent texture and clarity, and raised her eyebrows, saying, “It would look even better if paired with the necklace and earrings.”
"I'll listen to you."
Shang Shiyan signaled Fengxing to follow suit and keep up the price. Other interested buyers soon couldn't keep up and gave up.
After several rounds.
Shang Shiyan acquired a considerable amount of jewelry.
The auction continues.
Finally, it was Pei Jinwu's turn to choose the pink diamond crown.
Surprisingly, Qu Qingli also showed some interest in the crown set.
"20 million."
Upon hearing the bid, Pei Jinwu instinctively looked towards the other party.
Is it her?
From this angle, the back view looks a lot like the fourth sister.
"..."
Fengxing held the bidding device and carefully glanced at his master.
Shang Shiyan calmly peeled an orange for Pei Jinwu, without raising his eyebrows or eyes the entire time.
I understand.
Fengxing turned his gaze away and entered the price: "25 million".
How could the master allow someone else to take away what Miss Pei wanted?
He's right to match the price.
Qu Qingli: "30 million."
Shang Shiyan: "35 million."
Qu Qingli: "40 million."
Shang Shiyan: "45 million."
"..."
Seeing that the other party was determined to win, Qu Qingli did not want to take what was theirs for granted.
With a smirk, she turned off the bidding device.
After three strikes.
Shang Shiyan successfully acquired this item at auction.
"..."
Shang Shiyan looked at Qu Qingli and found that Qu Qingli was also staring at him.
When she saw him looking over, she gave him a polite smile.
Shang Shiyan was a man who upheld male virtues, and indifferently looked away.
Cold-blooded and ruthless.
"Tsk."
Qu Qingli sneered and muttered to herself, "Quite honest."
Then.
The staff pushed the pink diamond jewelry set in front of Shang Shiyan.
“I’m not the real master.” Shang Shiyan fed an orange to Pei Jinwu.
"?"
The staff members were all shrewd and reacted instantly, turning to face Pei Jinwu.
He paused for two seconds, then slowly uttered three words: "Mrs. Shang".
"?"
Pei Jinwu paused in his chewing motion, wondering what it was.
Yesterday she was his girlfriend, and today she's Mrs. Shang?
"Mrs. Shang, your item."
Seeing that she didn't react, the staff member asked again, "Where should we put it?"
"Give it to me."
Pei Jinwu blushed as she accepted the box, and after the staff left, she looked at Shi Yan with a puzzled expression.
“I didn’t teach them to shout like that.”
Shang Shiyan curled his thin lips and said lazily, "I must say, the auction staff are quite sensible."
"but--"
The man curled his lips into a smile and said in a hoarse voice, "Mrs. Shang sounds better than Miss Pei."
——
There's more.
