Upon hearing Ouyang Rao's words, Liu Nian frowned.
He was about to refuse, but seeing Ouyang Rao's appearance, he felt a pang of pity.
Oh well, let her be. Under his watchful eye, she can't cause any trouble.
He was just going to get a scolding from his master, but he really didn't know how to deal with pitiful women, even though he knew there was an element of pretense in it.
"Okay, don't leave this private room, or I can't guarantee what will happen to you."
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Rao was overjoyed and nodded vigorously.
She then sat on the sofa, obediently waiting for Jiang Xuanjin.
When his gaze fell on the screen and he saw the pink diamond being sold, he felt a little disappointed but didn't say anything more.
She believed that she could definitely become Brother Jin's woman.
She won't be able to have as many of these things as she wants in the future, so there's no need to lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of small gains.
Right now, the most important thing is to make Brother Jin like me; everything else seems less important.
Liu Nian glanced at Ouyang Rao, and seeing that she didn't make a scene, she turned and left the private room to apologize to Jiang Xuanjin.
——
Jian Yixue paused slightly when she saw that Jiang Xuanjin on the screen had stopped raising the price, then breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Jiang Xuanjin didn't continue, otherwise she really wouldn't know how to end this farcical contest between men.
Although she didn't know why Jiang Xuanjin suddenly changed his mind and stopped bidding.
If Jian Yixue knew it was because of Ouyang Rao, she would probably make a special trip to thank her.
Ultimately, Jian Yixue acquired this unique pink diamond for a high price of 10 billion.
The people downstairs looked up at the second floor with shocked expressions. The world of the rich was beyond the comprehension of people like them from the lower rungs of high society.
That's 10 billion!
Most of them had never seen so much money in their entire lives, let alone for a diamond!
No matter how beautiful the diamond was, they couldn't bear to part with it!
Jian Yixue, who was in the private room, was also extremely distressed.
Although she was rich, and Ye Mohan was even richer, she still felt a pang of heartache. What could have been settled for a few hundred million had suddenly become more than ten times that amount. How could she not feel the pain?
Thinking of this, she gave Ye Mohan beside her a reproachful look.
Ye Mohan had been watching Jian Yixue intently, and every movement and expression of hers was clearly seen by him.
When Ye Mohan saw Jian Yixue looking at him with a reproachful expression, a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Xue'er, what's with that expression? Are you worried I'll go bankrupt? You're overthinking it. With my power, even if I take everything at the auction, it won't stop me from supporting you for generations."
Ye Mohan spoke humorously, trying to make Jian Yixue laugh.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue rolled her eyes and silently told herself that this was her stupid man.
Then, helplessly, she looked up at the ceiling, trying to calm herself down and not argue with her stupid husband.
This stupid man is just silent; if he does speak, he'll surely drive her crazy.
Jian Yixue thought for a moment and decided that she should teach Ye Mohan a lesson. She said righteously, "What's yours is mine, didn't you say that?"
His face was serious, brooking no doubt.
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled by Jian Yixue's deeper meaning.
Seeing Jian Yixue's serious expression, he replied, "Yes, what's mine belongs to Xue'er, and so does the person I am."
Jian Yixue remained unfazed this time, completely ignoring Ye Mohan's last sentence, and said with a serious expression, "Well, you have to listen to me about what we'll be filming later."
How could Ye Mohan not understand by now that his little wife had set a trap for him?
It seems that his actions just now really frightened her; he had gone through all the trouble of setting a trap for her step by step.
Ye Mohan couldn't help but smile slightly and nodded.
"Yes, my dear wife!"
Jian Yixue blushed, but didn't say anything.
Since she had already achieved her goal, she didn't care what Ye Mohan said and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Jian Yixue was afraid that Ye Mohan would use the same tactic again during the auction, which would cost them a fortune, so she had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.
Now that Ye Mohan's money belongs to her, Ye Mohan will have no choice but to listen to her, and she won't have to worry about Ye Mohan squandering it.
——
Meanwhile, Jiang Xuanjin, who had left the private room, did not leave the auction house.
He still needs to buy the final item in the auction; that's the real reason he came today.
Of course, he can also leave and let Liu Nian handle it.
He didn't know if it was some kind of unseen force, but he felt that Jian Yixue hadn't left yet, and staying here seemed to bring him closer to her.
Then he turned around and went into a spare private room not far away.
When he saw that Ye Mohan had obtained the pink diamond, his eyes darkened considerably.
She'll be delighted to see this pink diamond.
Jiang Xuanjin thought to himself, the image of Jian Yixue's joy at receiving the pink diamond flashing through his mind.
It's a pity it wasn't a gift from him.
Thinking of this, the longing in her eyes dimmed a little.
When he left the private room to discuss business earlier, he noticed that Jian Yixue's gaze lingered on the pink diamond page of the manual for a long time.
He knew then that she liked it.
That's why he wanted to take a picture and give it to her personally, but now that's probably impossible.
The image of Ye Mohan giving the pink diamond to Jian Yixue filled him with uncontrollable jealousy and resentment.
In the end, he arrived too late and missed the white moonlight in his life.
But he still couldn't bear to give up...
That was, after all, his obsession of the past seven years...
...
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Xuanjin looked towards the door and saw Liu Nian walk in.
Jiang Xuanjin frowned, somewhat puzzled and displeased. "Didn't I tell you to take her home?"
Liu Nian walked to Jiang Xuanjin's side, bowed her head, and respectfully admitted her mistake.
"Master Jin, Miss Ouyang said she wanted to wait for you to go home together. I failed to do what you asked me to do. Please punish me, Master!"
Jiang Xuanjin stared at Liu Nian for a moment, then turned his head away without saying anything.
He also knew that Liu Nian, who had grown up with him since childhood, was the worst at coaxing women.
Given Ouyang Rao's methods, it's normal that he couldn't handle it.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xuanjin did not punish Liu Nian.
We've already come this far, so a little more patience won't hurt.
"Go check on the investigation over there and report back to me immediately if anything comes up," Jiang Xuanjin instructed.
Upon hearing this, Liu Nian knew that Jiang Xuanjin was referring to Jian Yixue's whereabouts. He nodded and turned to leave the private room.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xuanjin, in the room, leaned back on the sofa, dangling his leg, absentmindedly watching the screen, waiting for the final item to be auctioned.
He stared blankly at the screen, lost in thought.
