Chapter 58 Insane
“I think it’s not bad. It’s quite special.” At that moment from behind the two came Song Linger’s clear voice.
The brother and sister were sitting right behind them.
Yao Cen, “… “What the hell was wrong with their eyes.
“Half a million.”
At this moment, another voice came out from the front, which caused an uproar.
“It’s Sikong Xing!”
“But… how could the Sikong family want such a thing?”
“He can’t lose. Don’t you know? Sikong Xing is Yao Cen’s ex-boyfriend.”
“Then we have a good show.”
“You’re overthinking it. The Sikong family gets what they want. Who would ever bid against them? He will just never win and will cross that family, but who in this city would ever afford to mess with that family?”
“He is just a piece of shit in the Yao family. Maybe he did that just for fun. That’s so bold for him anyway, and maybe he would get kicked out of the family for that. Sikong Xing actually saved him.”
“A million.” Xiao Shun raised his paddle again.
“Shit, this guy is crazy!” Someone was surprised.
“Funny, I’ve never seen anyone dare to mess with the Sikong family.”
Some of these people were actually enjoying the fight.
“Well, it’s a big city, and we never lack these cynical souls. These rules, and these four families are just no shit to them.”
Unlike them, Yao Cen did not find the whole thing as enjoyable.
At first, after Sikong Xing made his bid, she was already relieved. Two hundred thousand was not a small amount, and now she didn’t even have a job. Of course she couldn’t just spend two hundred thousand like that. But to her surprise, the bastard made his bid again, and he even doubled the price!
“Are you crazy, do you want to win that badly?” Yao Cen grimaced and said.
She thought Xiao Shun did all these things because of Sikong Xing’s confession just now.
“Two million!” Sikong Xing looked at Xiao Shun with a gloomy expression, “You beggar will never win!”
“Five million.” Xiao Shun expressionlessly raised his paddle again.
Yao Cen was already so desperate that she could only stare at him with wide eyes.
However, in front of so many people, she could only suppress her own anger. She really couldn’t work out why Xiao Shun would be so bold. She would only give him three thousand dollars pocket money every month, so he simply can’t save money after the family’s daily expenses. Naturally she would have to pay for his bid in the end. Five million! Oh my god! If Sikong Xing stopped shouting, where was she going to get five million now? Did this bastard want to sell that villa of his for it? Just for that piece of shit?
Obviously Sikong Xing was bidding for him, but couldn’t he just let that Sikong have it?! Why did he insist like this? Yao Cen now regreted very much. She really should not come with him to such a place.
After them, although Song Linger didn’t know why Xiao Shun insisted like this, she still opened her mouth and said, “Bravo, Master!”
Xiao Shun naturally didn’t think the kid was making fun of him, but it just didn’t seem like the right time. Yao Cen was now staring at him through gritted teeth.
Sikong Xing, “Ten million!”
Xiao Shun, “Twenty million.”
Both raised his paddle at almost the same time.
The scene was silent, and everyone looked shocked and incredulous. No one wanted this thing at two hundred thousand but now it was at twenty million. This was definitely the most bizarre thing in his life. Yao Cen could no longer close her mouth. She felt very nervous, but didn’t know what to say anymore. Sikong Xing gritted his teeth and looked even more livid that ever. The Sikong family was certainly rich, but if he spent tens of millions to buy that grotesque and worthless jade sculpture, it would certainly become a problem if he still wanted to be an heir to the family.
“Twenty million? How would you possibly have that much money? I will be surprised if you have twenty thousand with you!”
At this point Li Chunlian got up and said, “He is here simply to make things difficult for us all. Just kick him out!”
“You are disgracing the Yao family.” Yao De also got up and reprimanded.
The crowd was just so surprised that they realized something at that moment. So the man who had been bidding against Sikong Xing was just a son-in-law of the Yao family.
When they heard what Li Chunlian said, they all understood something and the crowd broke into discussion.
“Was this young man just yelling for fun?”
“It seems to me something’s wrong with his mind.” Someone sneered.
“I request a verification.” shouted Sikong Xing. He had been so chicken hearted and he could by no means just give up at such a critical moment. But now with a verification if they found that Xiao Shun actually had no money, he could end this silly game and that rubbish would make a scene of himself.
“No problem, we’ll pause for ten minutes for a verification,” the auctioneer said. They had a special verification team for this auction. Of course, they didn’t need any verification for Sikong Xing, but just asked Xiao Shun for his card.
A few minutes later, the auctioneer announced, “The auction will resume!”
At that, the room erupted. The crowd immediately understood what he meant as well. Xiao Shun can certainly afford the price! That is, he did have to buy that jade sculpture with a starting price of only two hundred thousand for twenty million!
Yao De and Li Chunlian naturally knew everything about Yao Cen’s family, and after Tulip International was repossessed, twenty million was almost everything they had. But how was this possible? But that’s what they saw.
“Twenty million going once… twenty million going twice…”
“Congratulations, sir!” He dropped his hammer. Sikong Xing clasped his hands to his chest and leaned back in his chair without saying a word. He never thought he would be defeated by such a loser. But he had to remain calm at this time. After he became the head of the family, he could just do whatever he wanted to do.
“Crap, what an idiot. With twenty million he could have bought a jade carving so much better than this one.”
“I just think Mr. Sikong did it on purpose?”
“Yes, of course the Sikong family can afford twenty million, they’re just not idiots.”
Yao Cen woke up like a dream and gazed at Xiao Shun, “Where did you get so much money…?”
“I won it. That bet with Xue Cheng.”
Xiao Shun said with a bland smile. Yao Cen looked at him like she was looking at a monster. A moment later, she recalled the bet and asked curiously, “Can you really tell that Xue Cheng will be sick in a month?”
“It’s just good luck.”
Xiao Shun raised his eyebrows.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
