Madam Is A Sensational Figure In The City Chapter 518

"What do you want again?"
She sat up and stared at the bidder sign in Huo Xishen's hand.
'Spending 10 million yuan on a necklace really isn't cost-effective at all.'
The bunch of wealthy socialites and noblewomen saw put down their bidder signs awkwardly when they saw that it was Huo Xishen again.
The auctioneer personally brought the necklace to Huo Xishen and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mr. Huo, can I take the liberty of asking you what you're bidding for this necklace for..."
Huo Xishen answered without blinking, "For my wife to play with it."
"…"
'He spent 10 million yuan on a necklace for his wife to play with?'
The women in the room all cast jealous gazes at Yan Jinyi, feeling extremely green with envy.
Yan Jinyi sat on the chair, feeling rather surprised.
'I don't dare to play with something that costs 10 million. If you'd like to give me something to play, just give me money. What's up with giving me a lame necklace?'
"We're returning it!" Yan Jinyi stood up abruptly and said, "Who is in charge of this auction? I don't want this necklace anymore. Put it up for auction again or whatever, just return me those 10 million yuan, not a single cent less."
Other women would have been over the moon and start showing off their loving relationship with their husband immediately.
'Why is Huo Xishen's wife so different? Does he like eccentric women? Is that why he suddenly got married after being single for nearly 30 years?'
Huo Xishen took out a gold embossed card with a straight face and said, "Get ready to swipe the card."
Yan Jinyi stared at the card with glistening eyes. 'How much money is in that card?'

"I don't want it."
Huo Xishen picked up the necklace and put it on for Yan Jinyi. Her neck was slender and her skin was fair like porcelain, thus making the necklace look extraordinarily pretty,
"It suits you well."
"This necklace is obviously meant to be matched with a gown. Who would wear it out during normal times?" Yan Jinyi couldn't help but curse.
Huo Xishen said seriously, "You can wear it during our wedding in the future."
'Huh? Wedding?'
Yan Jinyi humphed a little and chided softly, "Who wants to have a wedding with you?"
Huo Xishen pursed his thin lips, pretending not to hear her.
The organizers had specially prepared an evening ball dance on the cruise ship.
Neither the former or current Yan Jinyi could dance.
Looking at the dancing couples on the dance floor, Yan Jinyi asked, "Mr. Huo, do you find it an embarrassment that I can't dance?"
Huo Xishen answered calmly, "No."
Yan Jinyi's eyes were full of suspicion.
"I don't either," she said.
She immediately felt much more at ease.
They spent the night on the cruise ship, during which the owner of the ship called to make some arrangements.
Yan Jinyi was a little excited.
The night was breezy and it was extraordinarily breezy in the spacious cabin of the first floor.
Yan Jinyi stood at the top deck. The ship was quite far from the shore, and the beautiful lights on the shore could be seen vaguely.
The waves were lapping at the hull of the ship, and Yan Jinyi was fascinated by it.
In her era, the sea was a mysterious and frightening place where almost no one came close. But here, it became a place that countless people love and wish to conquer.

'What an amazing feeling.'
All of a sudden, the sounds of light and gentle footsteps sounded behind her.
Yan Jinyi's ears twitched and she could tell that those footsteps did not belong to Huo Xishen.
At this moment, Yan Jinyi felt a murderous aura and suddenly turned around to see that it was a middle-aged man with blond hair and blue eyes. There were numerous bodyguards behind him.
"Is there something wrong?"
"Second Young Mistress Huo, why don't we strike a deal with each other?" the foreigner asked.
"No, you guys seem like crooks," Yan Jinyi refuted hostilely.
