"You can't stand it already? If they show off their love later, you'll be even more upset. I told you not to come, but you came looking for abuse. You even spent money to get abused, "Wei Liao complained.
GK invited many celebrities to the charity dinner, so it was up to the guests to attend.
The purpose of this dinner was obvious. The company would auction off items, and the guests would fork out money for charity.
However, many people were willing to come, not because they were passionate about charity, but because they wanted to improve their relationship with GK.
They wanted to build a good relationship with the new president, Qin Chu, so that they could work together in the future.
Su Yu didn't have to come, because he was in the entertainment industry, and GK had never invested in media.
He only came because GK's foundation was called the Mian Foundation.
Su Yu knew that the foundation was named after Huo Mien, so he had to come. He even dragged Wei Liao with him.
"Let's begin," Qin Chu ordered.
Then, the MC walked to the center of the room and began the prelude …
"The first item is a sandalwood fan from the early Qing Dynasty. It's part of GK's president's collection, and the starting bid is 300,000 yuan."
"I bid 300,000 yuan."
"350,000 yuan …"
"450,000 yuan …"
Several rich businessmen began to fight over the item, and in the end, the sandalwood fan was sold at a high price of 600,000 yuan.
Huo Mien was in a good mood as she watched the auction. She knew that all of the money raised from this auction would go to the Mian Foundation.
The money would be used to pay for the children's meals and school construction in the depths of Yunding Mountain.
More than an hour had passed since Zhang Zian had taken a lot of photos.
"Are you hungry?" Qin Chu whispered into her ear.
"I'm okay."
"Bear with it for a bit, we'll go eat after this."
"Okay." Huo Mien nodded.
The two of them sat in the first row with their fingers interlocked, and they continued to watch the auction.
Finally, the MC announced solemnly, "The last item is GK's new jewelry. It was developed by seven famous designers, and it's called 'Prosperous Age Fanghua.'"
Then, the big screen began to introduce the composition, style, and design concept of the jewelry.
Huo Mien only found out that the set of jewelry he was wearing was worth five million yuan after reading the introduction.
Finally, the host said, "Let's welcome Miss Huo to the stage to show everyone the real deal."
"Go, don't be nervous." Qin Chu comforted her.
Huo Mien nodded. He got up and carefully walked onto the stage. Then, he stood under the spotlight.
She had a warm smile on her face from beginning to end … Her smile was very sweet and beautiful.
Su Yu's eyes never left her face …
"Hey, don't look at it anymore. Be careful that it gets stuck in your eyes and you can't pull it out," Wei Liao joked.
"Next up is Flourishing Youth. The starting price is five million. Let's begin."
"Five million," someone shouted in pain.
"6.8 million."
"Eight million eight hundred thousand."
"10.5 million."
This was a limited edition set of jewelry. Because the company only designed one set, many rich businessmen kept it for themselves. They would either give it to their wives, daughters, or lovers.
All in all, the bidding was intense as soon as the auction began. The price jumped by a lot as well.
"18 million." Qin Chu raised his paddle. Did he want to pay for it himself? No, he only wanted to raise the price to raise more money.
As expected, after Qin Chu joined in, the competition became even more intense.
"19.9 million." Someone raised his paddle.
"30 million." This time, Qin Chu directly jumped the price by 10 million.
No one made a move … After all, 30 million was already too high.
"30 million going once …"
"30 million going twice …"
"30 million …" The host didn't finish his sentence.
Before the host could finish speaking, a deep voice from the back row said, "50 million."
As soon as this was said, the crowd went into an uproar …
Huo Mien was also slightly surprised. She stood in the middle of the stage and looked through the crowd at the last person who raised his paddle.
That person was … Su Yu.
