"It's just a little thing at work."
Shu Mowan said casually.
Si Tingyu didn't say anything more.
The auction continues.
During this time, Shu Mowan was very generous and bid on some nice collectibles for her three elders.
"I believe some of you here are here for the new masterpiece by jewelry necklace design master Wushuang - Eternal Heart. Each of her works represents uniqueness, and it would be perfect to buy it as a gift for your loved one."
Near the end, the auctioneer addressed the audience.
Si Tingyu, who was already tall and straight, sat even more upright.
Shu Mowan caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye and turned to look at him: "Brother Si, you're not interested in Wushuang's new work, are you?"
"Um."
Si Tingyu did not deny it: "Part of the reason I came today is because of her new work."
Shu Mowan opened her mouth, wanting to tell him that she was right there and there was no need to waste money on the film, but then she heard him say, "I heard that people who have filmed her works are all harmonious and loving couples."
That's why he thought of taking a picture and giving it to Shu Mowan as a token of their love.
Shu Mowan was very clever and immediately guessed Si Tingyu's intention, but swallowed her words back.
You have to take your own photos to show your sincerity.
The auctioneer announced the starting price—five million.
"Six million."
"Seven million."
"Eight million."
"One hundred million."
After three bidders offered 100 million, Si Tingyu immediately offered 100 million, drawing everyone's attention.
That's an extremely high price.
Just when everyone thought no one would bid, a woman with bright red lips and wavy hair suddenly raised her sign, "Two hundred million."
Everyone gasped softly.
While Wushuang Design's necklaces and jewelry are renowned, it's quite rare to see one fetch such a high price.
Si Tingyu glanced in the woman's direction and held up his sign: "Three hundred million."
"Four hundred million."
"Five hundred million."
"Six hundred million."
"Seven hundred million."
"Eight hundred million."
"Nine hundred million."
The woman did not continue, and her eternal heart's desire fell upon Si Tingyu.
Shu Mowan glanced at Si Tingyu and asked, "Brother Si, is it worth spending so much money on something that might just be a marketing ploy?"
"It's worth it if it can get you to agree to spend your life with me."
Si Tingyu made no secret of the fact that he filmed Eternal Heart in order to ensnare Shu Mowan.
Shu Mowan was somewhat touched.
No matter how capable she is, she is still a girl, and Si Tingyu's disregard for cost naturally touched her.
After the auction ended and the procedures were completed, Si Tingyu, who had obtained the Eternal Heart, gave the exquisite box directly to Shu Mowan.
“Wanwan, here…”
He handed the box to Shu Mowan, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by the sexy woman with red lips.
"I really like Wushuang's designs, but this time I can't afford to compete with this gentleman. Could this young lady please let me see her new designs?"
The woman got straight to the point.
Shu Mowan glanced at her and readily agreed, "Sure."
After she finished speaking, she opened the box.
The woman leaned closer to look and immediately exclaimed, "It truly is unparalleled! The new design has not disappointed me."
As soon as she finished speaking, a dagger slipped from her sleeve, and she grabbed it and stabbed at Shu Mowan.
Upon seeing this, Si Tingyu's pupils contracted sharply. He was about to make a move, but Shu Mowan, who was clearly on guard, was faster than him and raised her hand towards the woman.
The woman suddenly felt weak all over, and the dagger slipped from her hand. She leaned back against the wall for support and barely managed to regain some strength.
"You knew it was me all along?"
The woman looked at her coldly and said weakly.
"Flying Eagle, you overestimate me. I'm not so powerful as to know that you're a woman."
Shu Mowan said, "But I know you came to the auction today, so I have to be wary of anyone who approaches me."
After saying that, she stepped forward and pressed a dagger against Flying Eagle's neck, pulled out a small earpiece from her body, and said, "Everyone, your master is already in my hands. Don't make a futile struggle."
"Feiying, do you think that by capturing me, your mother and the others can leave here?"
Flying Eagle scoffed.
Did my mom and the others come?
Shu Mowan raised an eyebrow and asked in return.
Flying Eagle paused for a few seconds, "What do you mean?"
"Flying Eagle, you've been in the Dark Night position for so many years, you haven't forgotten about the disguise technique, have you?"
Shu Mowan smiled, but there was no warmth in her eyes.
Flying Eagle frowned.
She had only been in Beijing for a short time and had just received news that Shu Mowan would be at the auction. She was determined to capture her alive to vent her anger and was not familiar with her family. So, seeing how respectful she was to those old people, she believed that they were her family.
Unexpectedly, these three were in disguise.
Now Flying Eagle understood everything.
"Hiei, I underestimated you."
Fei Ying thought that the news of her secret trip to Kyoto was kept secret, but little did she know that Shu Mowan already knew and had even used her body to lure her here.
She smiled resignedly and said, "Fine, it's all about the winner taking all. Kill me if you want."
"We live in a society governed by the rule of law. Why would I kill you?"
Shu Mowan seemed puzzled.
Flying Eagle looked at her suspiciously, "Are you going to let me go?"
"I'll hand you over to the police."
Shu Mowan said matter-of-factly, "The crimes you've committed in China over the years are enough to make you regret it."
Dark Night not only does business abroad, but also domestically. However, despite multiple police operations, they have failed to capture Flying Eagle, their superior. Now that Flying Eagle is in Shu Mowan's hands, Dark Night has decided to curry favor with the police.
Flying Eagle was stunned for a few seconds.
She thought Shu Mowan would torment her through private means, but she didn't expect her to go through legal proceedings.
