Then, Xue Liang and Yao Mengqing went on stage with the staff escorting them. Yao Mengqing stood in front of the stage and said in a sweet voice, “I’m very happy to be able to bid for this precious violin. I’m also very honored to be able to donate 300 million to charity.”
She turned her head and looked at Xue Liang gently. “I’ll take this opportunity to give this violin to Mr. Xue. I hope that the Golden Foundation can also include Mr. Xue���s name. After all, I’m giving this violin to Mr. Xue as a gift.”
The person who donated the most to this charity auction would receive the naming rights. Now that Yao Mengqing had already donated 300 million, naturally, no one would be donating more than her. Hence, the naming rights of the foundation would go to her. She wanted to add Xue Liang’s name because she wanted to rope him in.
This way, everyone would know that she was close to Xue Liang.
Xue Liang smiled. “Thank you, Miss Yao, for your violin. I’ll take this opportunity to give you two things.”
At this moment, Qiao Xi was sitting on a chair and lazily sipping her tea, looking extremely indifferent.
Yao Mengqi had a face full of disdain. “Tsk! You want to compete with my sister? You’ve overestimated yourself!”
Madam Yao’s tone was gentle. “Miss Qiao, Mengqing can give you anything else but she must have this violin. After all, it’s for Mr. Xue. I hope you don’t mind.”
Qiao Xi glanced at them with an indifferent expression. “Sure.”
Her nonchalant reply infuriated Madam Yao and Yao Mengqi.
The Yao family had spent over 200 million yuan for nothing this time because of Qiao Xi’s schemes. At this moment, Qiao Xi still had a nonchalant expression.
Madam Yao glared at her viciously and roared, “Qiao Xi, you just said that the highest bidder wins! Mengqing spent 300 million on that violin. Could it be that you’re unconvinced?”
At this moment, Xue Liang’s voice came from the microphone. “The violin will be gifted to…”
When everyone heard Madam Yao’s angry roar, they could not help but look over.
The anger that Madam Yao had been suppressing finally erupted. “No matter how much you want the violin, Mengqing has already gotten it. You’re the one who has no money, so you can’t blame anyone else. What’s with your cold face?”
Yao Mengqi chimed in, “Do you even need to ask? She’s jealous of my sister. Some people just can’t stand to see others doing well. She already snatched a few of the things that my sister liked, but my sister only snatched the violin. Even so, she’s pulling a long face.”
Madam Yao snorted. “Now that Mengqing has already given the violin to Mr. Xue, it’s useless even if you hold a grudge. Are you going to hold a grudge against Mr. Xue too?”
Xue Liang’s words slowly sounded. “It’ll be given to…”
Madam Yao paid no attention to him at all and was anxious to vent the flames of rage in her heart. “Qiao Xi, you must apologize to Mengqing and let this matter go. Otherwise, if news of this spreads, everyone will say that you’re petty and seek revenge for the smallest grievance. You—”
Before she could say anything more, Xue Liang said the person’s name.
“Qiao Xi.”
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth curled up.
Madam Yao was instantly stunned. Who called out Qiao Xi? Was she hallucinating?
That voice seemed to be Xue Liang’s voice?
The people who were originally watching the fight all came back to their senses and looked at Xue Liang in shock before looking at Qiao Xi.
Wait!
Had they heard wrongly?
Xue Liang… wanted to give the violin to… Qiao Xi?
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Qiao Xi put down the teacup and slowly stood up, then she smiled meaningfully. “Madam Yao, please repeat what you just said.”
“You… are jealous of Meng Qing, so…”
Madam Yao was instantly speechless. Her body went limp, and she took a few steps back.
She looked at Qiao Xi in horror, her voice trembling. “You… Impossible! Xue Liang… Impossible…”
At this moment, the person in charge of the auction repeated Qiao Xi’s name, shattering Madam Yao’s final doubt.
“Mr. Xue has decided to give the violin to Miss Qiao Xi. Let’s invite her to the stage.”
Madam Yao instantly felt weak and fell onto the chair.
Xue Liang was giving the violin to Qiao Xi?
That b*tch!
Qiao Xi straightened her skirt and glanced at the Yao family.
“Madam Yao, I’m really sorry. The violin… still belongs to me in the end.”
Qiao Xi walked past everyone and walked up to the stage with her head held high..
