Zhai Yufei's provocation did not have the effect she wanted. Neither Qin Heque nor Cheng Yuesheng looked back at her.
Even if they saw it, they wouldn't take it to heart.
Qin Heque continued to bid, "5 million."
Zhai Yufei gritted her teeth and raised the price: "5.5 million."
"Six million."
After just a few bids, the auction price of this set of jewelry doubled.
"6.5 million." Zhai Yufei continued to raise the price.
"7 million." Qin Heque continued to raise the price calmly.
Cheng Yuesheng, who was standing by, felt like she was becoming numb from listening. After a few rounds of bidding, she became more and more calm. She could even drink juice while watching Qin Heque raise his sign and bid.
At this time, the sisters around Zhai Yufei had already begun to persuade her to give up.
"Forget it, Yufei, stop shouting. You can't snatch it from Qin Heque. He's so rich."
"Yes, Yufei, don't offend him."
"Yufei, if you keep going this way, you're going to exceed your budget. How are you going to tell your grandfather when your card maxes out?"
The more her friends tried to persuade Zhai Yufei, the more jealous she became.
She was about to continue bidding, her mouth opened, but before she could utter a word, her friends covered her mouth with their hands.
"Mmmm...mmm..." Zhai Yufei looked at them unwillingly.
"Yufei, think about it carefully. You don't have that much money. It would be embarrassing if you don't have money to pay after the photo shoot."
Zhai Yufei had to give up struggling and looked at Cheng Yuesheng jealously. She knew that this set of jewelry would belong to Cheng Yuesheng.
In the end, the tourmaline jewelry was photographed by Qin Heque.
He smiled at Cheng Yuesheng with great satisfaction.
The auction continues.
Later, several other sets of jewelry were put on the stage one after another. One of them was a diamond necklace, which, after several rounds of competition, broke the record for the price of this auction.
But Qin Heque did not participate again.
Before going back, Qin Heque took Cheng Yuesheng to dinner.
Halfway through the meal, Xiao Liu came in holding a box. Cheng Yuesheng guessed that it contained the tourmaline jewelry that Qin Heque had photographed.
He opened the box and the jewels inside were neatly placed on the velvet.
"Does it look good?" Qin Heque asked her.
Cheng Yuesheng looked at the jewelry and nodded. It looked even better up close. The color of the watermelon tourmaline was very beautiful, the diamonds were very sparkling, and the inlay craftsmanship was also very exquisite. This set of jewelry was designed to be very youthful and girlish. No wonder so many people were vying for the price at that time.
Qin Heque picked up one of the headbands. The headband was made of platinum and fixed with black silk laces at both ends. Tourmalines of different shapes and sizes were inlaid on the platinum headband at fixed intervals. Diamonds of different sizes were also added in it. It looked very exquisite and expensive.
"Try it on."
Cheng Yuesheng was a little confused. She looked at Qin Heque, then at the tourmaline headband, and asked foolishly, "Wear it on your head?"
Qin Heque asked her in return: "If you don't wear a headband, where else can you wear it?"
Only then did she realize that she had asked a stupid question.
"I, I wear it?" Cheng Yuesheng pointed at his nose and asked stutteringly.
"Or I can help you put it on." After he said that, he raised his hand and went to put it on Cheng Yuesheng's head.
"Wait, wait a minute." Cheng Yue immediately refused. She looked at Qin Heque in confusion and asked, "Why do you want to wear it? Do you want to see the effect?"
Qin Heque looked at Cheng Yuesheng, who looked bewildered, gently and said, "I want to see if it looks good on you."
"Why?" Cheng Yuesheng asked.
"Do you like this gift for you?" Qin Heque stared at her face with a very deep look in his eyes.
Cheng Yuesheng was horrified.
She turned her head away, her heart beating faster. "It's too expensive. I can have it."
Given her current relationship with Qin Heque, she couldn't accept such an expensive gift from him.
Qin Heque looked at her slightly evasive behavior and felt a little disappointed.
But he quickly put the disappointment deep in his heart, thinking that there was still a long way to go.
"You're my girlfriend, but I haven't given you a decent gift in all this time. If others knew, they would think I was a mean-spirited man. And if this set of jewelry is photographed, the news will spread quickly. If it doesn't appear on you, people will gossip about it in front of Grandpa."
He pushed the jewelry box towards Cheng Yuesheng and said, "Shengsheng, wear this set of jewelry to accompany me to the next banquet, okay?"
Cheng Yuesheng couldn't help but look at Qin Heque with an inquiring look. His reasons made her unable to refute.
Sometimes she couldn't quite tell the difference between the two of them. Qin Heque was too nice, and she was afraid she'd get too caught up in it. What if, in the end, Qin Heque said they could separate, but she couldn't? So she could only keep a rational eye on their relationship.
The woman's infatuation is beyond words.
Qin Heque gave a wry smile and said sullenly, "Shengsheng, everyone knew at the auction that I bought the jewelry for you. If you don't wear it, I don't know what rumors will spread."
They had agreed to help each other, but in fact, she had always been more dependent on Qin Heque. Hearing him say this, Cheng Yuesheng immediately responded: "Don't worry, I will definitely wear it when the time comes."
If she insisted on not accepting it, it would seem that Qin Heque would be in a difficult position.
Forget it, just treat it as a temporary storage here. Anyway, she is living in Qin Heque's place now. Whether the things are in her room or Qin Heque's room, it is essentially his home.
In fact, she had suggested that they should move across the street, but Qin Heque said that the house upstairs was leaking and the ceiling was damaged. She had gone to see it before and it was a mess. She didn't know when it would be repaired.
