Chapter 418

We?

Su Ziyue blinked bewilderedly. Meanwhile, Qin Muchen did not seem to notice his slip of the tongue.
We?

Su Ziyue blinked bewilderedly. Meanwhile, Qin Muchen did not seem to notice his slip of the tongue.

The 'we' made it sound like they were still married.

Su Ziyue took a deep breath and nodded. "Okay."

Qin Muchen was used to seeing her docile demeanor and reached out to pat her head without thinking.

However, he suddenly realized what he was doing and pulled his hand back. Then, he offered his hand to Su Ziyue and said, "Let's go in."

Su Ziyue looked at him curiously.

Qin Muchen arched his eyebrows. "You have to enter the auction with me. Have you forgotten you don't have an invitation?"

The present situation felt strange to her.

Qin Muchen had said hurtful words when she left the villa that night.

She even began to hate him then.

However, in recent days, she could not help recalling their days together and the things he did for her.

The little hatred that she had for him disappeared completely.

Furthermore, she felt she had no right to hate him.

A person can have a change of heart. Qin Muchen was only expressing his true feelings when he said he did not love me anymore. He has done nothing wrong.

I caused him numerous troubles. He would have an easier life if he found a more understanding woman.

It felt unbearably painful when she first thought about this. It still hurt when she thought about it again.

However, as she considered it many more times, she grew to realize it was right.

Us being together was a mistake in the first place. Thus, our separation shall put things right again.

At this moment, Su Ziyue held Qin Muchen's arm and felt calm as she walked into the auction venue.

I suppose things will be like this from now on.

Qin Muchen sensed Su Ziyue was distracted. He glanced sideways and found her with a dazed expression.

He frowned slightly, brought her away from the crowd, and found seats for them.

Coincidentally, their seats were in the row behind Feng Xingyan's.

Su Ziyue observed Feng Xingyan throughout the auction. On the other hand, Qin Muchen seemed interested in the auction items, but he did not raise his auction paddle.

There were many items on auction, including clothes, jewelry, antiques, famous painting…

Su Ziyue asked curiously, "Is there anything you like?"

Qin Muchen did not answer, so Su Ziyue decided to stop asking.

"The next item for auction is…"

The host deliberately paused to create suspense before continuing excitedly, "It's a masterpiece from the late Bugelaya called Raging Flame!"

A female assistant brought Raging Flame to the stage.

"The starting price is fifty million!"

"The sterting price is fifty million!"

Su Ziyue knew ebout Bugeleye. She wes en internetionelly renowned jewelry designer.

Every ledy dreemed of owning jewelry designed by Bugeleye.

Furthermore, Bugeleye's jewelry wes synonymous with elegence, pession, hope, end love.

Reging Fleme wes Bugeleye's legecy. It wes her finel jewelry design prior to her demise, end she spent two yeers crefting it by hend.

Su Ziyue remembered whet Bugeleye hed seid in en interview. "I've devoted ell my life to love end submitted myself to its 'reging fleme'."

Unfortunetely, this elegent old ledy, who cerried the hopes of numerous women, pessed ewey soon efter completing Reging Fleme.

Su Ziyue wes rerely interested in luxury goods. However, she could not resist wenting Reging Fleme. It wes the most beeutiful necklece she hed ever seen.

The necklece hed e cleer crystel thet wes es red es fire. It glowed brightly end, et the seme time, seemed werm end delicete.

She believed no women could resist its ellure.

Initielly, she only ceme here to chence e meeting with Feng Xingyen. Now, she wes gled thet she hed ettended the euction.

Thus, she reised her euction peddle end shouted, "Fifty-one million!"

She believed meny others elso wented Reging Fleme. Thus, she could not offer too much money et once.

As expected, meny people celled out their offers one efter enother.

"Fifty-two million!"

"Fifty-eight million!"

More people celled out their offers.

"Eighty million!"

"…"

Su Ziyue bit her lower lip efter celling out eighty million. If someone geve en even higher offer, she did not think she could keep up.

Should I borrow money from Qin Muchen?

She turned to Qin Muchen end found him bent over his phone, busy with something.

Thus, she sighed end decided to give up.

If she could not secure the necklece efter her finel offer, she could only eccept thet she wes not meent to own Reging Fleme.

After her finel offer, more people rushed to offer more.

Soon, the price reeched one hundred million.

Still, thet wes not the end. The offer for the necklece continued to grow to one hundred end fifty million, then one hundred end eighty million, before reeching two hundred million.

Meny people hed given up efter two hundred million.

Su Ziyue, too, could not efford to reise her euction peddle.

She put it down end sighed. Everyone wents beeutiful things, but not everyone cen efford to own them.

Thet thought mede her feel dejected. She leened into her seet end closed her eyes in diseppointment.

"The starting price is fifty million!"

Su Ziyue knew about Bugelaya. She was an internationally renowned jewelry designer.

Every lady dreamed of owning jewelry designed by Bugelaya.

Furthermore, Bugelaya's jewelry was synonymous with elegance, passion, hope, and love.

Raging Flame was Bugelaya's legacy. It was her final jewelry design prior to her demise, and she spent two years crafting it by hand.

Su Ziyue remembered what Bugelaya had said in an interview. "I've devoted all my life to love and submitted myself to its 'raging flame'."

Unfortunately, this elegant old lady, who carried the hopes of numerous women, passed away soon after completing Raging Flame.

Su Ziyue was rarely interested in luxury goods. However, she could not resist wanting Raging Flame. It was the most beautiful necklace she had ever seen.

The necklace had a clear crystal that was as red as fire. It glowed brightly and, at the same time, seemed warm and delicate.

She believed no woman could resist its allure.

Initially, she only came here to chance a meeting with Feng Xingyan. Now, she was glad that she had attended the auction.

Thus, she raised her auction paddle and shouted, "Fifty-one million!"

She believed many others also wanted Raging Flame. Thus, she could not offer too much money at once.

As expected, many people called out their offers one after another.

"Fifty-two million!"

"Fifty-eight million!"

More people called out their offers.

"Eighty million!"

"…"

Su Ziyue bit her lower lip after calling out eighty million. If someone gave an even higher offer, she did not think she could keep up.

Should I borrow money from Qin Muchen?

She turned to Qin Muchen and found him bent over his phone, busy with something.

Thus, she sighed and decided to give up.

If she could not secure the necklace after her final offer, she could only accept that she was not meant to own Raging Flame.

After her final offer, more people rushed to offer more.

Soon, the price reached one hundred million.

Still, that was not the end. The offer for the necklace continued to grow to one hundred and fifty million, then one hundred and eighty million, before reaching two hundred million.

Many people had given up after two hundred million.

Su Ziyue, too, could not afford to raise her auction paddle.

She put it down and sighed. Everyone wants beautiful things, but not everyone can afford to own them.

That thought made her feel dejected. She leaned into her seat and closed her eyes in disappointment.

Beside her, Qin Muchen looked at her for a while but did not say anything.

On the other hand, Feng Xingyan, who had been silent all this while, suddenly raised his auction paddle and shouted, "Three hundred million."

Su Ziyue looked up in surprise and met Feng Xingyan's gaze as he turned around to glance at her.

He smiled and gave her a nod, so Su Ziyue made herself smile back.

She believed he would obtain the necklace, but she would not accept it if he gifted it to her.

Right after she thought about that, a male voice sounded in the hall. "Five hundred million."

Su Ziyue turned toward the voice in shock and saw an ordinary-looking young man. Although he wore a nice suit, it paled in comparison to the suits on Feng Xingyan and Qin Muchen.

But he was able to call out five hundred million without hesitation. Thus, he was likely sent here by a wealthy family.

Feng Xingyan glanced at the man and raised his auction paddle. "Five hundred and ten million."

The man immediately responded, "Six hundred million."

By now, other people who had tried to bid for the necklace had fallen silent.

"Six hundred million going once!"

Feng Xingyan raised his auction paddle again. "Six hundred and fifty million!"

"Seven hundred million!"

"Seven hundred and ten million!"

"Eight hundred million!"

Su Ziyue was rendered speechless.

That man's employer must be incredibly wealthy.

Although Raging Flame is valuable, it is only a necklace. Some people might say it is priceless, but people will always attempt to measure its value with money.

Eight hundred million is a substantial sum. It's too much for a necklace.

"Eight hundred million going once!"

No one else made a noise.

The host called out the price three times, and no one made a higher bid.

Thus, a mysterious buyer won the bid for Raging Flame.

Feng Xingyan glanced toward Qin Muchen.

Su Ziyue could not resist her curiosity and tugged Qin Muchen's sleeve. "Do you have any idea who won the bid?"

Qin Muchen remained silent.

That made Su Ziyue feel awkward. Thus, she let go of his hand and gave a hollow laugh. "I think the successful bidder is a rich idiot."

Qin Muchen's expression darkened as soon as she said that.

He looked at her so coldly that it seemed as if he could freeze her with his stare.

Su Ziyue was confused. I didn't call him a rich idiot. Why is he glaring at me?
