The waiter explained politely, "The private room of the VIP guest has the right to bid in advance. Also, you don't have to appear. We can just pass it on on behalf of the service."
Gu Qiqi immediately understood.
She asked lightly, "What if I offer a higher price?"
The waiter hesitated. "That… That depends on how much you want to offer. Guest 38 will offer 500,000 dollars for this uncut stone."
That small cornerstone cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Even this seemingly student-like guest couldn't afford it, right? Was there a need to ask?
Unexpectedly, Gu Qiqi's next words were very calm. "Then, I'll fork out a million dollars."
The waiter staggered. Beauty, you can't play like this!
It was too savage to double it directly.
He hurriedly asked customer 38 for his opinion through the walkie-talkie.
In the end, the voice on the walkie-talkie became even more savage. "1.5 million!"
The waiter's legs went soft.
Usually, the increments at the venue were tens of thousands of dollars. Why were these two customers adding hundreds of thousands of dollars today? Could it be that… this uncut stone was very awesome?
It was just a cornerstone.
As her hands trembled, Gu Qiqi suddenly turned around and walked towards another untrimmed quarry stone. "I don't want it anymore. The person can bet 1.5 million for this stone."
She had yet to figure out the second untrimmed quarry stone.
Behind her, the waiter spoke again. "This… the guest in Number 38 also wants this!"
Gu Qiqi frowned.
One time could be said to be a coincidence, but two times would be a problem, right?
Did this guest from Number 38 have a feud with her since he always snatched the stones that she took a fancy to?
In private room 38 on the second floor, Bai Yingzhu casually signed a check for 1.5 million dollars and laughed coldly. "Trying to snatch a stone from me? I won't even use my strength. I'll use money to crush you to death!"
Gu Xuexue chimed in obsequiously. "That's right. She even dared to fight with our Bai family's little princess. That little wallet of hers is simply not enough. How embarrassing!"
Gu Yuanyuan's hand itched. "Yingzhu, why don't you use your strength? If you cheat her of her money on worthless stones, she'll lose millions of dollars…"
Gu Yuanyuan still remembered the hatred she had for Gu Qiqi after she cheated her at the jade trading company back then.
Since she didn't have the ability to take revenge, she relied on Bai Yingzhu's hand to take revenge.
Gu Xuexue hurriedly threw Gu Yuanyuan a look. "Sister Yuanyuan, Yingzhu knows her limits. We'll just watch."
No, he couldn't let Gu Qiqi get an advantage. She had to eliminate the glass jade stone first. Otherwise, if Gu Qiqi managed to get a suitable stone, she would force Brother Liuchuan to end the engagement. Then, Gu Qiqi would have a chance to be with Gong Jue.
Gu Yuanyuan naturally couldn't object in front of Bai Yingzhu and said awkwardly, "Okay. But… Eh? Who is that man?"
The three of them looked through the French window and saw a tall and skinny man in a coquettish pink suit walking towards Gu Qiqi.
"Oh, there's even someone who's a hero saving a beauty?" Gu Xuexue said sourly.
Bai Yingzhu squinted and suddenly laughed sarcastically. "Hero? More like a dog!"
Gu Yuanyuan also recognized him. "Not only is he a dog, but he's also a perverted dog! That Young Master Wang likes to play with young ladies the most. His reputation is very bad! Could it be that he has taken a fancy to that d*mned girl Gu Qiqi?"
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Gu Xuexue's eyes. "That's great! Then, I'll let her lose her money and her body tonight!"

Downstairs.
Young Master Wang looked at Gu Qiqi's beautiful back with desire.
He had noticed this young lady long ago.
Her aura was so unique and different from those young ladies that he usually got his hands on.
Just by looking at her casually standing there, even the jade stones around her paled in comparison. It was as if she had an aura of light around her.
He secretly stared at her and realized that the stones that she had her eyes on had been snatched away repeatedly.
It was best to take advantage of this opportunity to snatch her heart!
He hurriedly ran down from the private room on the second floor to hunt for his target!
