Chapter 593: Chapter 593: Mr. Su, Are You Still Haggling?_1
That’s a reasonable point.
Upon reflection, Xiao Mi Hu calmed down. After all, she had already experienced the pinnacle of her life, and decided not to make another bid.
The sellers, who were truly coveting the Light of Fortune, heard the bid had risen to a hundred million, and they restrained from bidding recklessly;
The spectators, similar to Xiao Mi Hu who came just for the fun of it, took a look at Harry Perry’s and Su Maochang’s faces, and thought it was better to save a life than to build a seven-tiered pagoda. So, they all silenced down.
For a moment, no one placed a bid.
The auctioneer waited for a minute, and when he was sure that no one was bidding, he asked, “Any more bids? Anyone else? If not, a hundred million for the first time…..”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Mi Hu’s face turned pale. What did he mean, no one was bidding?
Don’t scare me, I’m just a casual bystander!
The auctioneer continued, “A hundred million for the second time, a hundred million….”
Xiao Mi Hu gripped Ye Xingguang’s arm tightly for a moment. It was over, she had really put herself in a bind!
“A hundred and one million!” At last, Su Maochang made a bid!
The reason for waiting before making a bid was to teach those spectators a lesson, so they wouldn’t follow his example and keep inflating the price, assuming someone would eventually foot their bill.
Hearing Su Maochang’s bid, Xiao Mi Hu was almost moved to tears. She now understood how Su felt!
Indeed, being a good person pays off!
“A hundred and two million!” Someone else had raised the bid again.
After a while, someone started to bid, “A hundred and three million!”
Although people kept bidding, it wasn’t as exaggerated as before. The spectators like Xiao Mi Hu were all quiet. The few remaining to bid were those truly capable and interested in obtaining the Light of Fortune.
Among them was a top-tier actor whose recent pay had already reached a hundred million. His astronomical acting fees made him stand out among the businessmen, and he was the last celebrity willing to bid against them.
Finally, Harry Perry raised his number plate, announcing, “Two hundred million!”
This high bid silenced the few remaining businessmen who wanted to compete.
The actor wanted to raise his number plate, but ultimately decided against it.
Too expensive. Not that he couldn’t afford it, but it wasn’t worth it.
Spending two hundred million on a diamond seemed like a crazy act to him, despite his great admiration for the Light of Fortune. He wanted to buy it as a proposal gift for a girl he secretly loved.
Xia Yanyan’s eyes and eyebrows were all filled with a proud and enchanting smile.
The feeling of her boyfriend splurging for her made her feel as if she was exuding boundless charm.
Someone teased, “Wow, Miss Xia just bought a Dragon & Phoenix Jade Pendant for two hundred million, and now Harry Perry plans to buy the Light of Fortune for the same price. Is this what they call a perfect match? I’m so envious that I just got hit with a wave of dog food!”
Harry Perry gave a charming smile, looking at Su Maochang, “Mr. Su, are you going to keep bidding?”
Su Maochang laughed bitterly, “Mr. Harry, please show mercy. As you know, I just promised Miss Koi that I would buy the Light of Fortune for her. I can’t go back on my word now, in front of all these witnesses.”
Harry Perry changed to a more seductive pose, “Then it comes down to our respective abilities. I openly stated in front of the media that I am bidding for the Light of Fortune for Yanyan. If you want it, then let’s continue to flex our liquidity. But are you confident that you have enough liquidity to compete with me?”
