Chapter 793: Chapter 793: Must Get It Chapter 793: Chapter 793: Must Get It The president of Shengda Enterprise was taken aback as he watched her approach.
It was evident that his purchase of the jewelry set was not only for sake of owning it.
Unfortunately, Ye Mingmei didn’t give him an extra glance and instead, turned around to look in Dan Hanjie’s direction.
Seeing Qin Youxuan by his side, she clenched her teeth unwillingly, handed the microphone over to the auctioneer, and exited the stage.
The atmosphere at the start was great and the auction following it went very smoothly.
The Ye Family, under the pretense of charity, managed to sell items from various prominent families present there for a price higher than the market value.
All under the guise of contributing to charity.
Halfway through the auction, the missing Ye Mingmei reappeared.
She had taken off the diamond jewelry set and had changed her long dress for a mini skirt, appearing more attractive.
She walked in through the side door of the venue, glanced at the people around her, and headed straight to the auction area.
Ignoring the speculative glances from the crowd, she bypassed the spot belonging to the Ye Family and sat directly in Dan Yi’s seat.
“Miss Ye, don’t you think you’re seated in the wrong place?” Dan Hanjie shot her a cold look and spoke indifferently.
A glimpse of displeasure flashed in his enticing eyes.
“Of course not, Jie. Can’t you see? I came especially to see you.” Ye Mingmei provocatively glanced Qin Youxuan, skimmed her bag with her long fingers, and smiled brightly.
“I saw the donation list and didn’t expect you to be so dedicated to the Ye Family’s charity event. Such a pure cat’s eye gem can’t be found on the market now. Jie, I really like that necklace. I will definitely get it.”
Dan Hanjie frowned. Just as he was about to speak, he noticed Yao outside the venue and whispered in Qin Youxuan’s ear, “I’ll go out for a bit.”
He stood up and walked out.
Watching his back, Qin Youxuan bit her lip.
What happened? He seemed to be in a hurry.
Ever since Dan Hanjie offered to take her to the dinner, she felt something was wrong.
When she saw the necklace, she felt somewhat reassured, thinking he had prepared a surprise for her, hence his insistence to bring her along.
But it seemed like there was more to it…
“I know you’re upset. Jie’s Find your next favorite novel on NovelHub today!” Ye Mingmei flicked her hair arrogantly, glanced at Qin Youxuan when Hanjie left.
The necklace was valuable, and today’s auction was hosted by the Ye family. Naturally, Ye Mingmei believed that everything Hanjie did was because of the Ye family or even for her.
“I see, Miss Ye’s talent for self-appreciation is truly astounding.” Qin Youxuan looked up at her and moved her gaze elsewhere.
Most of the items at the auction had been sold, only a few from the big clans were left.
And Hanjie’s cat’s eye necklace, undoubtedly was the most precious item at the auction today. If she hadn’t guessed wrong, it would be the last.
Considering Ye Mingmei’s attitude, she was likely to compete with her regardless.
“Stop pretending, your disappointment is obvious to anyone with eyes. I’ve told you before, a man like Jie is out of your league. Sooner or later, he will become bored with you.”
Seeing Hanjie left and hadn’t come back, Ye Mingmei became more confident in her speculation.
She moved to sit next to Qin Youxuan and abruptly grabbed her wrist…
