“Ye Wanwan, are you out of your mind?” Ye Hongxuan yanked away Ye
Wanwan’s hand, speaking sternly, “Spending 1.2 billion Spirit Coins on a
Seven Star Flower – have you lost your senses?”
Had it not been for his daughter, Ye Wanwan, he might have raised his hand and delivered a sharp slap. He had already given her a stern warning when the bid reached 1.1 billion. Fortunately, Ye Lengan had continued the bidding. Even at 1.1 billion, it was already a significant amount. Yet, Wanwan had audaciously shouted 1.2 billion.
After the bid, Ye Wanwan’s rationality returned. Her face turned somewhat pale. “Father, 1… I didn’t mean to. It’s Ye An’an; she provoked me, and that’s
In reality, due to her father’s restraint, she had initially decided against continuing the bid. However, the provocative look from Ye An’an and the silent words, “Loser,” reminded her of the incident with the Shennong Cauldron. It clouded her judgment, leading her to shout the astronomical price of 1.2 billion again.
“Wanwan, there’s no need to justify yourself.” Ye Hongxuan’s expression soured. “l know you’re competitive, but I never expected you to lose your composure like this. Do you realize what consequences we’d face if we spent
1.2 billion on a Seven Star Flower we already have in the family?”
While the Seven Star Flower was rare, it was already cultivated within the family. Spending 1.2 billion on a plant the family already possessed was far from a wise decision.
“It won’t happen,” Ye Wanwan hastily assured. “Father, trust me. Ye An t an will continue bidding. I promise not to participate this time.”
As Ye Wanwan shouted the sky-high bid of 1.2 billion, the atmosphere in the room shifted from excitement to numbness. All eyes focused on Ye Lengan, anticipating the next bid. Even Wanwan, at this moment, was solely concentrated on Ye Lengan. Her heart burned with anxiety, praying fervently for Ye Lengan to bid again so she wouldn’t have to raise the price.
Under the collective gaze, Ye Lengan casually rested her chin on her hand and smiled. Addressing the auctioneer on stage, she said, “Since Miss Ye is so eager for this Seven Star Flower, I won’t compete. I’ve already pocketed the
Shennong Cauldron, so I’ll let Miss Ye Wanwan have this Seven Star Flower!”
With these words, Ye Wanwan’s face turned ashen. Her thoughts were chaotic, and she struggled to find words. Her lips trembled, attempting to speak but failing.
In truth, her thoughts were in disarray. She never expected Ye Lengan to withdraw from bidding at this crucial moment. Did she just win the Seven Star Flower at the staggering price of 1.2 billion?
Ye Hongxuan’s expression grew even more unpleasant. He had tried to stop Ye Wanwan earlier due to the immense risk of escalating the bid. Now, with the bid reaching 1.2 billion, Ye Lengan had made it clear she wasn’t interested.
There wouldn’t be another bidder willing to pay such a high price. The Seven Star Flower would inevitably go to them.
The onlookers weren’t fools; they sensed something amiss with the father-daughter duo from the Ye family.
The auctioneer on stage wasn’t blind either. To prevent further complications, he swiftly concluded the auction.
“1.2 billion Spirit Coins going once!” “1.2 billion Spirit Coins going twice!”
“1.2 billion Spirit Coins going thrice! Sold!”
In a matter of seconds, the auctioneer finalized the sale, marking the fastest transaction in history. He had no other option. If the Ye family had any second thoughts about this final item, it could tarnish his reputation and overshadow the success of the Shennong Cauldron auction..
