Chapter 594 Sky-high bidding
In this charity auction, the auction items that can be put up are donated by those who come to participate, and the money obtained after the auction will be used for charity projects to help more people in need.
It is not good to come empty-handed to participate, and the reputation of the Shen family has always been good, so no one will worry about whether there is anything greedy for money.
Murong Qiao also brought a bracelet as an auction item this time.
Watching the auction items on the stage being delivered to different owners amidst the cries, Murong Qiao also bid several times for the charity that the Shen family insisted on.
She sat next to Murong Chen and looked around, but unfortunately the allocation of seats could not be changed this time, Huo Yichen seemed to be far away from where they were sitting.
"The next auction item is a bracelet of AU's limited edition this year, which is also provided by Ms. Murong Qiao from the Murong family."
Following the voice of the host, a bracelet was pushed in front of everyone.
"The starting price refers to the price on the official website. We set it at 200,000. Please bid politely."
As soon as the host's voice fell, there was a price call on the other side.
"Half a million."
Almost instantly, Murong Qiao recognized that the voice came from Huo Yichen.
Murong Qiao turned her head, but unfortunately the distance between the two was too far for her to see Huo Yichen's expression at the moment.
Everyone was also surprised by Huo Yichen's generosity, and they cast their gazes over, wanting to see who was so generous.
But one wave of unrest followed another, and Murong Chen also raised a sign.
"Eight hundred thousand." He shouted.
Even though they have already met each other and recognized the relationship between Huo Yichen and his younger sister, Murong Chen was more or less upset that the other party stole the limelight.
"Brother?" Murong Qiao looked back at him suspiciously.
She hadn't said much, but Huo Yichen and Murong Chen started arguing.
"one million."
"1500000."
"Two million."
As soon as the two came back and forth, the price was raised to a new height.
Others, however, saw how much the bracelet was being scrambled to such an extent, and immediately withdrew from the auction.
Murong Qiao was about to say something helplessly, when he heard a new voice joining the auction.
"I'll offer three million." A gentle and jade-like male voice sounded beside Murong Qiao.
She was wondering why someone would join the auction, but when she looked over, she happened to meet the other party's gaze.
Half-length black hair is hung inward on the forehead, with a little curl at the tip, which makes the pair of brown eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses look beautiful, and the outline of the fair face is sharp without being overly forced. The aura of the person makes people fall into the deep sea in the eyes without paying attention.
Murong Qiao caught the man's gaze looking at him, and couldn't help but froze, and then saw the other party showing a very polite smile.
"I'll offer five million." The next second, she heard the other party say the amazing price again.
The other side is still comparing prices, and the people around have already expressed their indifference to this bracelet auction, watching the performance of several big shots.
Many celebrities were amazed by this scene, and their eyes couldn't stop showing envy.
Seeing that the person raised the price to five million, Huo Yichen raised the price again.
Murong Chen also noticed the third shooter inserted into the "competition" between him and Huo Yichen.
"Cen Qianmo...?" He frowned and read out the other party's name.
"Not to mention, he just appeared recently, and I haven't had anyone check it out yet, but I didn't expect that he would be able to participate in the Shen family's auction this time." Murong Chen answered after pondering for a moment.
Although most of the people in the circle came to the charity auction this time, the Shen family still has a certain threshold, and not all kinds of people are invited.
Cen Qianmo's ability to sit there made Murong Chen pay more attention to this person.
"Six million." This time the person who called for the price was not a male voice, but a somewhat delicate and light female voice.
Everyone's eyes once again focused on the new focus in the field, but this time it was Shen Xi who called the price.
Murong Qiao also recognized the owner of the voice immediately, but because of the location, layers of figures overlapped, making it impossible for her to see where Shen Xi was sitting at all.
She never thought that the other party would also participate in this auction, but what reassured Murong Qiao was Shen Xi's appearance.
Being able to come out and ask for a price at least proves that there is no problem with her health. Otherwise, Mrs. Shen probably wouldn't have let her daughter out just like that.
Shen Xi's bidding is naturally not capricious.
She is sitting next to Su Rong at the moment, and it is Su Rong's acquiescence to allow her daughter to bid.
"Six million a time, does anyone want to increase the price?" Seeing that the person who called for the price was the eldest lady of the Shen family, the host quickly emphasized it seriously.
Su Rong looked at her daughter helplessly, "Are you becoming more generous?"
"She saved me..." Shen Xi pursed her lips and said.
When she was speaking, she faintly glanced at Murong Qiao's direction, but she finally had to give up because of the crowds, and there was a look of regret in her eyes.
Although she was locked up at home because of her frailty, she didn't go out and interact with people very much, but Shen Xi was far more sensitive to a person's good and bad, good and evil, and other aspects than ordinary people.
Probably due to innate talent, she always has an overly sensitive perception of other people's emotions, and therefore knows that Murong Qiao has always acted like this from the time she met her, chatted with her, and even saved her later.
It's not at all the same as those people who deliberately want to get close to her, to curry favor with her, and to get the benefits of the Shen family from her.
Shen Xi plucked up her courage, "If possible, I want to be friends with her."
Even if she stared at her mother's unexpected and astonished eyes, Shen Xi was still firm in her thoughts that came up this time.
"I like her very much." She said it again seriously.
Among her peers, Shen Xi has never had friends by her side.
She hoped that Murong Qiao would be her first friend.
Hearing her daughter say this, Su Rong felt pain in her heart, and then felt guilty.
Her husband doesn't come home often from the army, so many things in the Shen family need to be taken care of by Su Rong. She spends far more time in affairs than spending time with her daughter.
What Shen Xi said just now made Su Rong feel uncomfortable.
"I also think the daughter of the Murong family is pretty good." She hastily agreed with her daughter's choice.
Just after Shen Xi said this, Su Rong also began to ponder in her heart, whether she had been ignoring her daughter's feelings too much in occasional reading all the time.
If you have time, you should invite some young people to play with Shen Xi.
Su Rong recorded this matter in his heart, and looked at Shen Xi with eyes full of doting.
During this period, the price of the bracelet increased several times, and in the end Huo Yichen turned it up to 10 million directly.
"It seems that I have no destiny with this bracelet." Cen Qianmo smiled, but did not continue this time. "Since Mr. Huo likes it so much, I won't take away people's love."
After he finished speaking, Shi Shiran withdrew from the auction.
Murong Chen also had no interest in insisting on competing, seeing Huo Yichen like this, he also put down the bidding cards in his hand.
"Then thank you, Mr. Huo, for your great contribution to charity. The money you raised will be used to help people..." The host also expressed his sincere gratitude and announced the ownership of the bracelet.
