The guests in the other private rooms of the Qin Garden seemed to be stunned.
Bidding up by more than ten million in one go not only showed wealth and bravado but more importantly, it conveyed a determination to win at all costs.
"Sister Lan, someone’s bid forty million already,"
Guo Dajin said with a smile.
Luo Peng leaned in, looking at the device in the other person’s hand, his face showing shock.
"I didn’t ask you to bid! You’re not really planning on making me work for you for a lifetime, are you?!"
"To go back empty-handed , wouldn’t you feel a knot in your heart that you just can’t untie?"
Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
After a good while, the numbers on the screen began to change again.
In life, one inevitably faces regrets; they can’t be avoided.
But when within reach, Jiang Chen hoped that the people around him would have as few regrets as possible.
He pressed his finger down once more.
Luo Peng’s eyes widened, his heart pounding!
Looking at his calm-faced good buddy, he was at a loss for words.
The screen on the device turned into still water, with the number seventy million sitting on it, unchanging.
The Qin Garden started buzzing, and guests in the private rooms began to discuss.
"Sister Lan, someone just jumped to seventy million!"
Guo Dajin’s voice was now somewhat excited too.
Although his initial estimate was conservative, he hadn’t expected tonight’s auction to reach such a high price.
His best guess had been around fifty million.
But reality gave him a pleasant surprise.
"Which private room?"
Standing on the third floor, Guo Dajin pointed in a diagonal direction towards a certain area on the second floor, "That one there."
The woman beside him looked over.
"Do you know who’s inside?"
Guo Dajin shook his head, "I’ll go ask."
The demeanor of the guests in the Jingzhe private room successfully intimidated the entire Qin Garden, and this unique auction ended in silence.
The final price was locked in at seventy million.
Nan Xu, holding her pipa, stood up and bowed slightly towards the empty first floor, seemingly expressing her thanks to the whole audience.
An employee came over and led her up to the second floor.
Inside the private room.
Luo Peng was on pins and needles.
"Damn, seventy million! I didn’t ask you to bid for me, I’m not acknowledging this debt!"
"If you want to be a deadbeat, I can’t do anything about it,"
Jiang Chen said nonchalantly.
Luo Peng opened his mouth to protest but ultimately could only smile ruefully and curse, "Damn it! You really are a rotten friend! You’ve screwed me over! Shit, seventy million! If my old man finds out, he’ll skin me alive!"
"Knock, knock, knock..."
There was a knock on the door from outside.
Luo Peng’s expression changed.
"What are you spacing out for, go open the door."
Luo Peng, filled with complicated emotions, got up, walked to the door, and opened it.
Standing outside was the star of the night, the person who Jiang Chen had won for him, Miss Nan Xu.
"Congratulations, Mr. Luo."
The marketer greeted him with a beaming smile.
Luo Peng forced a smile.
The marketer stepped aside, "Miss Nan Xu, please come in."
As their eyes met, Luo Peng’s smile grew even more strained, and for a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
Luo Peng’s gaze shifted upwards, noticing a woman standing on the third floor across from him.
His eyes lit up with amazement.
Qin Garden truly lived up to its reputation, with one beauty after another.
The women who appeared in the Qin Garden were surely all employees like Nan Xu.
Luo Peng naturally thought so and, recalling Jiang Chen’s earlier "decision-making," raised his hand and pointed towards the third floor.
"Call that lady over to accompany my boss."
