When the price of the bangle reached one million yuan, some people in the crowd secretly thought to themselves, 'It seems that Mr. Tang is really fond of that wooden bangle, is there something extraordinary about it?'

At this moment, a middle-aged man who was almost bald raised his sign and said, "1.1 million."

'This bangle is definitely extraordinary, otherwise how could someone as shrewd as Tang Qing place such a crazy bid?'

After the middle-aged man spoke, many other people began to place bids.

Yan Jinyi returned the bidding sign to Shen Yan and kept quiet.

However, she glanced at Tang Qing sultrily, making him get the goosebumps.

Tang Qing stood up abruptly and said, "2 million, anyone who dares to vie with me is going against me."

The group of people who had been whispering instantly shut up.

As expected of a rogue origin, Tang Qing had quite a bit of potential for being Yan Jinyi's underling.

'Selling something that's worth a few yuan for 2 million yuan is such a good deal!'

Rubbing her chin with one hand, Yan Jinyi glanced at the venue, thinking to herself that it was a lucrative job that would bring her massive riches.

"Jinyi, you're really something, you managed to make Mr. Tang spend two million for nothing."

Shen Yan couldn't help but be amazed. 'No wonder Qingyuan couldn't stop praising Jinyi. She's indeed very impressive to be able to make Tang Qing spend money.'

Yan Jinyi smiled sweetly and said, "Sister-in-law, you flatter me."

That was simple. Tang Qing and Huo Xishen were at odds against each other. As long as he had a chance to make himself seem more impressive than Huo Xishen, he would definitely seize it.

However, Tang Qing's behavior made everyone present even more curious about the true origin of the wooden bangle.

Shen Yan bought a famous sculpture that was carved by a famous carver of the ancient times, as a gift for Old Master Tang.

"Jinyi, did anything catch your eye?"

Yan Jinyi was in a good mood because she managed to earn two million yuan from Tang Qing for no reason. "No."

"Actually, the jade Buddha statue that Mrs. Zhang put up just now is quite good."

"It's not bad but the only flaw is that it's too expensive."

The jade Buddha statue costs more than half a million yuan. She felt that Huo Chengyu's golden skull was better than the jade Buddha statue.

"Jinyi, are you worried that I didn't bring enough money?"

Yan Jinyi blinked at Shen Yan and said, "That item is not worth spending your money on."

Just as she said that, the lady serving at the auctioneer put a painting on display.

It was about a meter wide and in the painting, there was a tiger lying on the ground. Its eyes had been especially drawn to look extraordinarily realistic.

Most importantly, the starting bid of the painting was 100,000 yuan, making it the cheapest item of the auction so far.

"This painting was sent by the Fu family. All the proceeds from this item will be donated to the children living in the mountains as a public service initiative."

'The Fu family?'

Yan Jinyi had a vague impression of them, and she knew that they were one of the so-called top powerful families in the city.

Unfortunately, she didn't like their surname.

"Sister-in-law, I'll take that painting."

To her surprise, Tang Qing had also taken a fancy to that painting, and as soon as Shen Yan placed her bid, Tang Qing began doing so too.

"150,000 yuan."

"200,000 yuan."

"250,000 yuan."

Seeing that the price of the painting was about to go up to one million yuan, Yan Jinyi glared daggers at Tang Qing and mocked, "I didn't expect the CEO of Tang Group to be so ungentlemanly as to compete with a vulnerable woman."

Tang Qing's hand stiffened as he held up the sign. 'What's wrong with that? I just want to bid for a painting that I like. How is that ungentlemanly?'

"Second Young Mistress Huo, you're exaggerating things. The items sold at auctions are meant to be bought by the highest bidder. I like that painting so I want to buy it. Isn't that normal?"
