《Being A Shrew To My Ex-Husband》Chapter 57: I Don't Know You Very Well
Advertisement
According to their bidding, the price of this “Favorite” would exceed ten million in a matter of minutes. No matter who won this violin, neither side would win.
Seeing that Su Yan did not respond after a long time, the host could only count down according to the rules: “Seven million going once, seven million going twice, seven million going thrice, done…”
Just as the host was about to announce the deal, Su Yan raised the bid card again. In the VIP room on the second floor, Wei Zhou’s face was extremely gloomy. He did not expect that the woman would not stop.
Lan Jian chimed in: “If you can’t do it, then just admit defeat. How can a broken violin be worth seven million? Whether I should say it or not, I admire the lady downstairs. She bid for it even when it is eight million. She really doesn’t lack money!”
As he said this, he even picked up a piece of honeydew from the coffee table and started to chew on it. This honeydew was delicious!
After knowing Wei Zhou for so long, this was the first time Lan Jian had seen him bid against someone. Moreover, he was bidding against his ex-wife. It was really an exciting sight.
“Eight million. This beautiful young lady is bidding eight million. I wonder if the gentleman on the second floor will continue to raise the price?” The host said excitedly.
“Hey, Little Zhouzhou, you’re not really giving up, are you? This doesn’t suit your personality. Just now, you said that you wanted to bid for this violin and give it to the Chairman of the Wan Long Group. The countdown is about to start. Hurry up and raise your bid card.” Seeing that Wei Zhou did not make any movements, Lan Jian quickly reminded him.

Wei Zhou fiercely glanced at him, then raised the bid card again: “Nine million!”
The crowd was in an uproar. The host was so excited that he almost launched himself into the air. Even the backstage staff were cheering and jumping. This was the highest bidding price of their auction that year.
The starting price of “Favorite” was three million. The estimated bid price was four million. Unexpectedly, the price was increased to nine million in just a few minutes. It was three times the starting price. It was a crazy profit for the auction!
“Wow, as expected of a VIP guest. He is really generous. The Gentleman on the second floor bid nine million.” The host said excitedly.
Below the stage, Su Yan looked at the bid card. She raised it several times mid-air and put it down again. The surrounding people were staring at the bid card in her hand. Their hearts also became nervous.
In the end, Su Yan let go and threw the bid card on the ground. Ten million for a violin was really a loss. She would allow herself to be in such a situation.
Seeing her throw down the price tag, the host understood what she meant. He stopped looking at her and directly started the countdown: “Nine million going once, nine million going twice, nine million going thrice. sold. Let’s use our warmest applause to congratulate the gentleman on the second floor for successfully bidding for tonight’s finale item at nine million.”
With one stroke of the hammer, the violin “Favorite” found a new owner. Looking at the violin being carried away by the staff, Su Yan felt a wave of bitterness in her heart. Presumably, if the master who made it knew about this price Favorite was sold at, he must have felt gratified.

The people who could attend the auction were all famous people in Jiang Du. Even though the host said that it was a gentleman on the second floor, in reality, everyone knew that it was Excellent Era Corporation’s CEO, Wei Zhou. However, the distinguished guests on the second floor were more interested in the woman downstairs who was competing with Wei Zhou.
Unlike the distinguished guests on the second floor, most of the people on the first floor recognized Su Yan. Thus, after the auction ended, all kinds of discussions happened.
Su Yan did not have any lingering feelings. She picked up her bag and walked out of the venue. She was not interested in being the target of endless discussions. Most importantly, she did not want to meet the two annoying people, Wei Shani and Guan Yutong.
In the VIP room on the second floor, Guan Yutong and Wei Shani walked in. Guan Yutong smiled and said: “Brother Zhou, congratulations on winning the auction!”
Before she finished her sentence, Wei Zhou looked at her coldly. There was a look of disgust between his brows. Guan Yutong’s expression froze and she quickly hid behind Wei Shani.
“Miss Guan, I told you not to call me Brother Zhou. I don’t know you very well.” Wei Zhou said coldly.
Wei Shani took a step forward and could not help but say, “Brother, why are you like this…”
The next second, Wei Zhou got up from the sofa and walked out with a cold face. He did not want to look at them at all. Seeing that Wei Zhou’s aura was not right, Wei Shani held back her words.
Guan Yutong’s expression did not look too good. She chatted with Wei Zhou thinking that he would give her some face. From the situation just now, the Guan family was not of any importance to the man.
Lan Jian’s lips curled up as he followed Wei Zhou out. However, just as he reached the door, he saw Wei Zhou throw him a bank card. Lan Jian asked in confusion: “What do you mean?”
“There’s no password. Help me pay the money.” Wei Zhou said coldly. It felt like he was instructing a servant.
Lan Jian said unhappily: “I’m not your subordinate.. Why don’t you do it yourself?”

LADY CHATTERLEY'S LOVER (Completed)
Lady Chatterley's Lover is a novel by D. H. Lawrence, first published privately in 1928 in Italy, and in 1929 in France and Australia. An unexpurgated edition was not published openly in the United Kingdom until 1960, when it was the subject of a watershed obscenity trial against the publisher Penguin Books. Penguin won the case, and quickly sold 3 million copies. The book was also banned for obscenity in the United States, Canada, Australia, India and Japan. The book soon became notorious for its story of the physical (and emotional) relationship between a working class man and an upper class woman, its explicit descriptions of sex, and its use of then-unprintable words.
