Hsiao Chih-ching's eyes flashed with a hint of pain. She forced a smile, "It's okay. I'm already very grateful that Mr. Yang could help me. I dare not ask for more …"
"Miss Zhiqing, don't say that! Because of Miss Zhiqing's sincerity, kindness and sincerity, I, Yang Chen, must bid for the ring and wine today. Not only for Grandpa, but more importantly … for Miss Zhiqing. " Yang Cheng said affectionately. He did not forget to get close to Hsiao Chih-ching's pink lips. Although he did not kiss them, he was very close. He could smell the sweet fragrance of the beauty.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Yang. When we get back to the hotel, I will transfer the money to you immediately!" Hsiao Chih-ching said as she bowed her head in gratitude. In fact, she was moving her red lips away from this bad guy's face.
Yang Cheng patted his chest and said proudly, "It's just a little more than ten million. In ancient times, there was a Yang Yuhuan's' Riding the Red Dust Concubine Smile '. Today, I, Yang Cheng's' Ten Million Gold Zhiqing Smile 'will not be outdone. Haha!"
Hsiao Chih-ching's face was full of shyness. Her eyes were full of charm. But in her heart, she was nauseous. What kind of lousy poem is this? It doesn't even rhyme! If you don't know how to recite poems, don't show off. This fat pig is not only stupid, but also disgusting.
With Yang Cheng's bragging and Hsiao Chih-ching's false pandering, the auction began unknowingly.
The first few items were neither low nor high. In fact, it was just a warm-up for the buyers. Most of them were sold for more than a hundred thousand.
When a bottle of wine was displayed, the auctioneer briefly introduced, "I believe that most of the ladies and gentlemen present are people who know wine. This bottle of wine is from 1945, from Chateau Morden. It is a five-liter collector's edition. 1945 was one of the best years for wine in the twentieth century. I believe that everyone can understand the value … The starting price is one hundred and ten thousand US dollars! "
For things like wine, the older it is, the greater the risk of drinking it.
Because many old wines, although seemingly unchanged, have long become a bottle of vinegar. Of course, as long as you don't open the seal, everything will be fine.
Therefore, only those who truly loved ancient wine would be willing to pay a high price. If it was for the sake of drinking it, it would actually be a bit of a loss. After all, the older the wine, the better the taste.
Very quickly, people in the venue began to call out bids. The bids went from 120,000 to 130,000 before they gradually stopped.
Only then did Yang Cheng pick up the sign and say to Hsiao Chih-ching, "Miss Zhiqing, look, I'm going to make a bid for you."
Hsiao Chih-ching cursed in her heart. Her face was full of gratitude. "En … Thank you, Mr. Yang."
Yang Cheng raised his placard with a stupid expression on his face. "Hey! I offer you 150,000. Will you sell? "
The people in the hall looked at them with disdain. If it wasn't for the fact that the occasion wasn't right, they wouldn't want to be associated with such a vulgar tone.
Hsiao Chih-ching also showed a look of embarrassment. In her heart, she scolded Yang Cheng for being a rich playboy. He had no manners at all. However, she also believed that he was an idiot!
This price was far higher than the real value of the bottle of wine. Of course, no one competed with Yang Cheng. So immediately after three calls, the deal was made to Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng winked at Hsiao Chih-ching. Hsiao Chih-ching finally smiled with some difficulty. She wanted to directly strangle Yang Cheng's neck on the spot.
The auction continued. After a few smuggled antiques were auctioned, the other treasure that Hsiao Chih-ching mentioned also appeared.
The auctioneer pointed to the big pink diamond ring in the anti-theft transparent box and said, "This is our last auction item today. I believe it is also the reason why most people are here. This ring is made of a five-carat pillow-shaped bright pink diamond. It is inlaid on a ring designed by the famous jewelry brand GRAFF. This rare pink diamond was mined in South Africa. Pink diamonds are different from other colored diamonds. The color of pink diamonds is said to be formed when the diamond is exposed to huge heat and pressure during the movement of the earth's crust. Therefore, the color is particularly charming and rare. The starting price is 11 million USD. Each bid must not be lower than 100,000! "
"I bid 11.1 million!"
"11.2 million …"
Soon, a few female tycoons, whose eyes began to shine, and a few male tycoons who wanted to win the favor of the women, began to compete to bid.
For these real super-tycoons who were worth billions, jewelry worth 11 million was actually not much of a challenge. This was because the value of jewelry would not depreciate if nothing unexpected happened.
When the price reached 10 million USD, the crowd finally began to quiet down.
The fat white female tycoon who made the super high bid spoke Russian. Obviously, she was a tycoon from Eastern Europe. She shouted until her neck turned red. Seeing that no one was bidding, her eyes were full of excitement. It was as if wearing that ring would return her to the prime of her youth at 18 years old.
"Hey, 13.14 million …" Yang Chen raised his card, and spoke plainly without any intention of stopping.
When the female tycoon heard this, she first glared at Yang Cheng. But then, as if she had a cerebral thrombosis, she panted and fainted on the spot!
In the panic, the bodyguards helped her out and sent her to the hospital. Only then did the auction finish the final procedure.
This price was not particularly expensive for the tycoons. The key was that there was no shortage of good jewelry in the world. Also, if they took too much cash, it would affect their business. Therefore, no one competed with Yang Cheng again.
Yang Cheng held Hsiao Chih-ching's soft waist with one hand and smiled affectionately. "Miss Zhiqing, this number contains a lifetime of love … Do you see it?"
Hsiao Chih-ching sneered in her heart. A lifetime? Isn't he just trying to play with me and get rid of me? But she still couldn't hide her emotions and gratitude. With tears in her eyes, she said, "Mr. Yang Cheng, you're so good to me … After we get the item, we'll go back to the hotel and I'll transfer the money to you immediately …"
"Sigh, money is a small matter. There's no rush. But Zhiqing … Why don't you call me Brother Yang? It's more intimate … Of course, you can call me Brother Yang too." Yang Cheng winked.
Hsiao Chih-ching felt nauseous. She lowered her head and forced herself to say, "Brother Yang …"
Yang Cheng laughed heartily as he led the delicate beauty through the procedures. After swiping his card, he rejected the police and the bodyguards' offer to escort him home. With the pink diamond ring in one pocket and the bottle of wine worth more than a hundred thousand dollars in one hand, his other hand was naturally wrapped around Hsiao Chih-ching's slender waist. From time to time, he would pinch the woman's soft flesh.
Hsiao Chih-ching suppressed her strong disgust and followed Yang Cheng out of the auction house. She asked, "Brother Yang, where's your car? I took a taxi here because I'm not familiar with the roads here."
Yang Cheng pointed to the blue Porsche 911 GT in front of him. "This is it. Get in, I'll take you to lunch."
Lunch?! Hsiao Chih-ching hurriedly shook her head. With a serious expression, she said sincerely, "No, let's go back to the hotel immediately. I need to transfer the money to you before I can Anxin …"
"Is that so … Sigh, alright, I really don't care. For a beauty like Miss Zhiqing, even thirty or forty million is worth it. It's not something that can be measured with money … Of course, if Zhiqing wants to go to the hotel, I'll be happy too …" Yang Cheng smiled obscenely at the end.
Hsiao Chih-ching snorted coldly in her heart. You can be smug all you want. In a little while, you'll be finished!
After getting into the car, Yang Cheng asked for the name and approximate location of the hotel before driving there. It was a five-star hotel on the west side of Beverly Hills. Although it was not big, it was known for its elegant decor and comprehensive service. The location was also quite secluded, belonging to the category of luxury hotel that was far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Along the way, Yang Cheng did not forget to put his hand on Hsiao Chih-ching's thigh from time to time. Because the Porsche was in manual transmission, he had to stretch his hand out. Hsiao Chih-ching had no choice but to accept it, pretending that she was being rubbed by an animal.
When they were about to reach the hotel, Hsiao Chih-ching stopped them. "Brother Yang, don't drive to the hotel. It's troublesome to get in and out of the parking lot there. Just park on the street outside."
Yang Cheng's face was full of admiration. "Zhiqing, you're so considerate. Alright, I'll listen to you."
The two got out of the car. There were not many people on the street. Yang Cheng very naturally held Hsiao Chih-ching's hand and slowly walked in the direction of the hotel.
Hsiao Chih-ching naturally led Yang Cheng. After turning a corner, she pulled him and said that they were going to take a shortcut. They directly entered a two-meter wide alley between the residential houses.
When they reached the middle of the alley, two bearded men wearing sunglasses and hats suddenly rushed out from the exit in front of them. They stood in front of Yang Cheng and Zhiqing in a domineering manner!
"Robbery! Hand over your money and valuables! "One of the slightly older men, chewing gum, looked down at Yang Cheng condescendingly.
Hsiao Chih-ching immediately showed a look of fear. She shrunk her body and slightly stepped back.
Yang Cheng showed a trace of a frightened expression. He quickly dodged behind Hsiao Chih-ching and pushed Hsiao Chih-ching in front of him. He said with a trembling voice, "You … How can you rob in broad daylight!?"
"Haha! Asian monkey, is there a law that says you can only rob at night? "The big man's face was ferocious. He signaled to his accomplice behind him.
The big man slowly took out a black pistol from his coat pocket. He seemed to be very bored as he wiped the dust off the gun. The meaning of threat was self-evident.
Hsiao Chih-ching clearly felt that Yang Cheng was grabbing her skirt. He was shivering behind her. His face showed a trace of contempt. A good-for-nothing playboy. Even when he really got into trouble, he still behaved like this. This world was really not the way it used to be.
Seeing that Yang Cheng kept hiding, the big man frowned and said, "Hey, buddy, how long are you going to hide!? Do you think you can be saved by hiding behind a woman!? Let me tell you, there is almost no one passing by here during the day. You better be tactful. Otherwise, my brother and I will make a move … "
Yang Cheng quickly raised his hand, "Don't, don't! Don't hit me! I'll give you money!! "
"Hmph, that's more like it." The big man laughed. At the same time, he couldn't help but look at Hsiao Chih-ching with an excited expression.
Hsiao Chih-ching's back was facing Yang Cheng. She nodded approvingly at the big man.
On the other hand, Yang Cheng put on a pained expression. He sneaked out from behind Hsiao Chih-ching and took out the pink diamond ring from his pocket. He didn't have the face to look at Hsiao Chih-ching and said in a low voice, "Miss Xiao, I'm sorry … I have to protect you. This ring, I'll give it to them …"
Hsiao Chih-ching's expression was indifferent. She couldn't be bothered to continue her act.
But at this moment, Hsiao Chih-ching seemed to have sensed something. She raised her head and exclaimed. She wanted to shout something, but she didn't have the time to do so!
"Thud! Thud!!! "
Two potted plants that had fallen from the balcony of a residential house landed right on top of the heads of the two Caucasian men!
Soil and plants splattered all over the ground!
The two men were still in the midst of their complacency. For some reason, they fainted on the ground! Even their eyes were open …
Seeing this, Yang Chen took a step forward and stepped on the white man's body. He laughed and said, "Look at this! Look! Zhiqing! The heavens must have been touched by my love for you. The heavens are helping me! It's obvious that the two of us are fated to meet each other. Such a good thing happened to us! Hmph, I knew it. I'm such a brave and upright person. How can a good person like me not be rewarded?! "
Hsiao Chih-ching stood dumbfounded. She looked at the big man who had fainted on the ground. Then, she looked at the arrogant man who was intoxicated. She almost vomited blood on the spot!
