Chapter 266: Get Involved
"Twenty-one million."
Everyone thought that the 20 million yuan that Huo Juncheng asked for this bracelet was already an astronomical figure, but someone actually raised the price. This was not only a question of whether the bracelet was worth the price, but more importantly, it was a blatant challenge to Huo Juncheng.
People were curious about the sudden sound and looked in the direction of the sound.
What people didn’t expect was that the person who challenged Huo Juncheng was actually Lin Yilan!
So what is the situation now?
Lin Yilan looked at the eyes around her. Although she wanted to pretend to be fearless, she was still a little nervous facing so many pairs of eyes.
Chu Siran didn't expect Lin Yilan to raise the price. She tugged at Lin Yilan's collar and scolded her in a low voice, "What are you doing? That bracelet isn't worth that much money. If Huo Juncheng wants it, just give it to him. I already said that the bracelet isn't important. Why are you joining in the fun now?"
Lin Yilan looked at Chu Siran's nervous expression, smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Huo Juncheng followed closely behind and bid 25 million.
Lin Yilan didn't think twice and added one million.
Everyone was a little confused for a moment. Why did President Huo and his young wife confront each other at the auction? Could it be that their current relationship...
Is it really broken?
Everyone was so shocked that even the discussions they had just had stopped. They sat there quietly, watching the situation unfold.
"30 million."
When the host heard Huo Juncheng bid 30 million, he was shocked. A bracelet originally priced at 3 million was bid ten times higher at this auction!
"Mr. Huo is now asking for 30 million. Is there a higher price?" the host said as he looked at Lin Yilan. Everyone followed the host's gaze and looked at Lin Yilan.
Facing everyone's gaze, Lin Yilan subconsciously looked at Gao Xianyang, "So, are we still going to continue?"
"Our participation just now has directly cost Mr. Huo an extra 10 million. That's enough. If we continue to raise the price, what if Mr. Huo doesn't want it? Wouldn't that be embarrassing for us?"
Lin Yilan nodded at Gao Xianyang and said, "Your idea is really great. Even though Huo Juncheng is the CEO of the Huo Group, and that ten million is not that important to him, I still feel very happy that he can spend an extra ten million for nothing."
Gao Xianyang raised his eyebrows, a smug expression on his face, and said nothing more. After all, everyone's attention was on them, and it was not convenient for Gao Xianyang to interact with Lin Yilan at the moment.
Lin Yilan looked around, shrugged innocently, and didn't bid any more.
Just like that, the bracelet undoubtedly fell into Huo Juncheng's hands.
The auction continued, and everyone had not yet recovered from the shock. They kept looking at Lin Yilan from time to time. To be honest, Lin Yilan really couldn't adapt to these gazes.
"Siran, if there's nothing else, let's leave first. The atmosphere feels a bit weird right now."
When Chu Siran heard Lin Yilan say this, he sighed helplessly. How could the current atmosphere not be strange? It was okay that Huo Juncheng and Chu Siran were bidding against each other for the bracelet, but Lin Yilan's current identity was the young lady of the Huo family.
She actually competed with Huo Juncheng for the price of the bracelet. How could outsiders not be surprised by such a thing?
However, Chu Siran didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Lin Yilan and nodded.
Zheng Ronglan was next to Chu Siran. Facing what had just happened, he didn't say a word. Chu Siran didn't bother to care about him. He pulled Lin Yilan and planned to leave quietly.
Zheng Ronglan looked at the two women in front of him and sighed, "Why are you two sneaking around like thieves? Something like that just happened, and everyone here is constantly looking over here. If you want to leave, just do it openly."
When Lin Yilan and Chu Siran heard what Zheng Ronglan said, they felt that Zheng Ronglan was right and nodded to each other. Lin Yilan took Gao Xianyang and the three of them left the venue directly.
Zheng Ronglan watched the three people leave and sighed helplessly, "I, Zheng Ronglan, really should thank you all. I've never been stared at so much in my life. You two really made me feel like the center of attention."
As soon as Chu Siran walked out, he couldn't wait to ask Lin Yilan why she did that. Lin Yilan smiled, pretended to be mysterious, and didn't say anything.
Chu Siran looked at Lin Yilan like this and became a little anxious. "So what's the reason? I've already said that the bracelet isn't worth the price. And the most important thing is, your relationship with Huo Juncheng is enough for the media to report on, and now you two are doing this at the auction. How can you be so careless?"
Gao Xianyang couldn't stand listening anymore and interrupted, "Actually, I just told Yilan to raise her cards twice as a token of appreciation."
"I was wondering why Yilan would get involved in this when she has nothing better to do. It turns out it's you. What good will this do for you? Why are you getting involved?"
Hearing Chu Siran talking about Gao Xianyang, Lin Yilan couldn't bear it any longer. "I think Gao Xianyang is quite right. The media has already reported it that way, so what if there's more news? Besides, if Huo Juncheng was afraid of those media reports, why would he still be entangled with his first love?"
Chu Siran felt that Lin Yilan had really become a little different from before, but if you asked her what was different, Chu Siran couldn't tell you.
I just feel that if this happened to Lin Yilan before, she would either be secretly sad or deliberately pretend to be indifferent. She would definitely not be like she is now, looking completely indifferent.
"Yilan, tell me the truth. Did Gao Xianyang say anything to you when I was away? Why do I feel you're so strange now? Although you're fine like this, I can't quite get used to it."
Hearing Chu Siran's question, Lin Yilan smiled and said, "It's nothing, but it's true that Gao Xianyang said that day at dinner that I feel I can't go on like this."
As Lin Yilan spoke, she looked at Gao Xianyang next to her, "Don't tell me, Siran, I think Gao Xianyang is a real treasure. I really want to have a brother like him."
"If you want to have one, then just be his sister. Anyway, I think that as the young lady of the Huo family... No, no, no, even if you are not the young lady of the Huo family, as the founder of our milk tea shop, it would be a hundred benefits for Gao Xianyang to have a sister like you."
Chu Siran didn't intend to hide it. She was not one to learn to be tactful. She directly excluded the current relationship between the two of them and pointed directly to the interests.
