Chapter 182: Chapter 182: But I Don’t Plan to Pay
Even though Tong Qingyan was reluctant, Qi Mo didn’t even blink as he spent 1.5 million to successfully win the jade stone.
Tong Qingyan, biting her lip in frustration, unwillingly said, “Spending so much money, who knows, it might just turn out to be a piece of junk.”
Duan Xiuqi frowned, clearly displeased as he responded, “If you are resentful, the highest bidder wins, you could have spent more money.” The rightful source is noⅴelfire.net
Spurred by the wealthy guest in VIP room number 03, Tong Qingyan was determined to spend some money at the auction no matter what!
The emcee, holding the microphone excitedly, introduced, “Tonight’s auction highlight, five Spirit Talismans crafted by the Hengshan recluse! They are for ensuring home safety, blessing health, wishing for a prosperous career, attracting peach blossoms for relationship smoothness, and guarding against the harm of petty people.”
The entire auction hall erupted, Bai Chuwei watched the intensely competitive auction unfold, even Tong Yunrou and Tong Qingyan were participating, and she let out a sigh.
As the saying goes, “Ignore the old, suffer the loss right in front.”
It seemed the two young members of the Tong Family also didn’t believe in their ancestors’ words.
Bai Ze, who was sitting beside her, was so excited about the Spirit Talismans that he almost wanted to press the buzzer too, but after seeing the stack of Spirit Talismans treated like cabbages on the table by Bai Chuwei, he managed to hold back.
Meanwhile, Tong Yunrou was particularly moved by the Relationship Smoothness Talisman, continuously pressing the buzzer together with Tong Qingyan.
Duan Xiuqi looked around at the crowd frantically bidding and fell into deep thought.
Those who could enter the auction were no fools, all scrambling for these five Spirit Talismans, could it be that there really were immortals in this world?
What’s the use of being an immortal? Can it keep you young forever?
An idea suddenly sprouted in Duan Xiuqi’s heart…
Quickly, he snuffed it out.
How could that be possible?
That was just too far-fetched.
Bai Chuwei was merely Bai Chu’s niece, and although they indeed looked strikingly similar…
Tong Yunrou and Tong Qingyan cheered on the side, both flushed with excitement.
“Third Master, for 3 million, we got a Spirit Talisman!”
Duan Xiuqi felt this was nothing more than a tax on stupidity.
At the auction, some rejoiced while others despaired, some overjoyed by acquiring a Spirit Talisman, others sighing in sadness.
Bai Chuwei noticed the old gentleman who had sent someone to warn her not to buy Spiritual Medicine, seemed to have not succeeded in getting one?
The items won by the guests were temporarily kept safe by the auction officials, and the winning guests could take their items only after paying in full before leaving the venue.
Bai Chuwei watched with interest as Tong Yunrou and Tong Qingyan, excited nieces, spent 3 million on a Spirit Talisman.
The real tax on intelligence.
The auction officials sent a sweet-looking young lady and several burly bodyguards.
The young lady in charge of collecting payments smiled and said, “Hello, esteemed guests. Would you like to pay for the auction now? Our auction house can provide a careful service to escort your items safely home.”
Duan Feihan and Qi Mo exchanged glances, each reaching into their wallets for their cards.
Suddenly, the girl extended her hand and grasped the hands of both men as they were about to use their cards, smiling sweetly at the counter lady, “Sorry, we have no money.”
The smiling lady’s smile froze for a moment, then became even sweeter, “You’re quite the joker, Miss. Are you kidding with us?”
Bai Chuwei was very sincere, “Not at all, I truly did win these auction items, but I’m not planning to pay for them.”
The crowd, already preparing to leave the auction, was taken aback, “???”
Not pay? Have they lost their minds???
If you don’t pay, were you just playing around when you bid?
