Chapter 313: Come In

mething wrong with how Su Ya Fen saved Ruo Er back then If not, why is Su Ke Xin like this todayThinking about this, Cheng Luo's expression became serious. He picked up his phone and dialed a number....As Xu Zui Ning had said, the guests at the venue had already begun to whisper amongst themselves.

"Hey! You guys, do you think this rough stone she bought will reveal a very valuable diamond"

"This… I estimate that there may not even be any diamonds in this stone at all. You all saw it with your own eyes just now, that girl on the second floor foolishly followed her and kept raising the price, and then what"

"One could only say that Zhu Yunxin was even more naive than her. She ended up buying the rough stone, otherwise, this woman in the private room might have become the sucker in the end."

"That's what I think. I feel like those expensive ores from the last two times were all just lucky for her, or maybe she was really fortunate. There's no way she could have known in advance that there was a diamond inside that ore."

"This is all about luck, how could ordinary people have x-ray vision to see what's inside! It's normal to make a wrong guess."

Everyone saw Zhu Yuxin foolishly following Xu Zui'ning's lead and bidding blindly, resulting in such a terrible loss. Therefore, the guests present no longer had the same blind faith in Xu Zui'ning as before.

Although they were bystanders, how could they possibly know that Xu Zui Ning's previous bids were all intentional They all thought that Xu Zui Ning had genuinely wanted to buy the stone for 20 million, when it was only worth 2 million.

It seems like this woman just got lucky by chance. She was probably just buying things impulsively.

Thinking about it this way, of course I wouldn't dare to call out the price with Xu Zui Ning anymore.

Zhou Shuangqing suddenly realized and clapped her hands.

"Oh! I understand now, you didn't just want Zhu Yuxin to make a mistake, but also to make everyone stop believing in you, so no one would follow you and bid higher! Zui Ning, is all of this so that I can successfully buy the stones at a cheaper price"

Xu Zui Ning replied.

Of course, or else why would I go out of my way to provoke that woman, Zhu Yuxin

Although Xu Zui Ning disliked Zhu Yun Xin's coquettish and spoiled behavior, she wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for her.

She challenged Zhu Yixing primarily to stop everyone from following her bidding price, so she could help Zhou Shuangqing buy a relatively cheap yet good diamond for her mother as a gift.

Zhou Shuangqing looked at Xu Zhuining gratefully, and finally happily walked forward and hugged Xu Zhuining tightly.

"Zui Ning, you are such a kind person, you thought so much for me."

Xu Zui'ning smiled and patted her on the back.

At this time, the original stone downstairs on stage had also been cut open.

A brilliant and dazzling light shone from within, causing a startled gasp to erupt from the crowd.

"Wow, this diamond's color looks fantastic! This would cost millions on the market, right"

"You know, if I had joined in bidding with her back then, maybe this diamond would be mine now!"

"Come on, calculate! You'll be the one bidding, won't others Then it might turn out like just now with Zoe—the price could skyrocket to tens of millions. At that point, you'll own the diamond, but you'll have lost a fortune!"

"Yeah, it's better to not pay extra with her then."

Although the diamond Xu Zhuoning bought for Zhou Shuangqing was of good quality, it was still far inferior to those that had been unearthed before. Therefore, although everyone was somewhat speechless, there was no significant reaction.

The auction continued until the last piece of rough stone was put up for sale. Even then, Zhu Yuxin's bid of fifty million remained the highest.

When the last piece of raw stone was presented, Ou Yang Chu acted decisively without hesitation and bought it for sixty million.

Xu Zui Ning didn't give others a chance at all. There was no back-and-forth bidding process. As soon as the host finished saying "you can bid," she directly held up her sign and said 60 million. Seeing her confident posture, people were too afraid to speak up. In the end, Ouyang Chu successfully became the highest bidder at this auction.

Before they could even leave the private room, after the auction ended, a staff member from Longxi Shengjing rushed over to tell them to wait for a moment. Alex would be there shortly to discuss the jewelry design with them.

When the staff had left, Puyun Gugxia immediately spoke.

"Achong, you and Xu Zui Ning wait here for me. I'll take Zhou Shuangqing to wander around nearby!"

This time, Ou Yangchu's purpose was to meet Alex, the designer of Angel's Sigh, in order to investigate the weapon. Zhou Shuangqing didn't know about this, so she wasn't very suitable to meet Alex either.

Puyun Gu Xia wasn't distrustful of Zhou Shuangqing, but this matter was connected to the Ouyang family and involved their secrets and Ouyang Chu's privacy. It was best for Zhou Shuangqing not to know about it; it would be better and safer for her.

That's why he said that.

Zhou Shuangqing was also a very intelligent person. She had long seen that Ou Yangchu's purpose in participating in this auction was not simple. He wasn't there to buy rough stones, but had some ulterior motive.

Hearing what Puyu Guxia said, she quickly nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, this is my first time on such a luxurious cruise. I'll let Senior Puyu take me around and show me the sights!"

Xu Zui Ning also knew the severity of the situation, and she didn't want Zhou Shuangqing to get involved. So, she nodded in agreement.

Puyun Gu Xia and Zhou Shuangqing left the private room soon.

Xu Zui Ning and the others waited for a short while inside the private room, when suddenly there was a knock on the door followed by a familiar voice from outside—

"Excuse me, sir, may I come in now"

Xu Zui'ning and Ou Yang Chu exchanged glances quickly, Xu Zui'ning coughed softly, then said in a gentle voice.

Come in.

The door to the private room swung open, and a white-haired old man walked in.

It was Alex, though he was a foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes, he spoke Chinese quite well.

He looked at least fifty or sixty years old, his head full of white hair, but he was well-maintained and looked energetic. His back was straight, and his eyes held a respectful but not overly humble look.

With neatly combed hair and tidy clothes, he certainly gives off the air of an artistic worker.

"Hello everyone, I'm Alex, the former Design Director of Longxi Shengjing. It's great to be here today..."

Alex wanted to introduce himself, but the moment he glanced up, he was met with Ouyang Chu's serious expression and froze.

He stared at OuYang Chu in disbelief, then finally reacted, almost instantly rushing towards the private room door.

Ouyang Chu was quick-witted. The moment he realized Alex was trying to run, he grabbed the back of his collar and slammed him onto the table, sneering as he asked.

"Want to escape" fuel to the fire. 。"I've already divorced Gu Chi, I can't control who he wants to see or doesn't want to see!" After taking care of Su Ya-fen for so many days, she was actually blaming her like thi...
