Ryan looked coldly at the woman who suddenly appeared, felt things going to have a change.
As expected, Betty grabbed the microphone from the host and said loudly, "sorry, all the guests. I have something to tell! You all knows that this pair of rings are provided by our Chu family! I have the right to decide the price and the way to sell it. Right? "
The crowd nodded and whispered.
Betty smiled with satisfaction and said, "I know Mr. Ryan honored us and just bid for the rings with a high price! But I have a requirement. I am wondering whether Mr. Ryan can agree with it."
"Tell me!" Ryan folded his arms across his chest and answered coldly.
Without beating around the bush, Betty said, "I know Mr. Ryan has brought his fiancee here today. And this fiancee, I think everyone is curious about which family she is from! As long as she can come upstage and tell everyone about the origin of this pair of rings, I will present them to Mrs. Ryan on behalf of the Chu family! "
No sooner had Betty finished speaking than the rest started to discuss heatedly!
Betty's request was like a drop of water in hot oil! The crowd had been discussing heatedly.
At the same time, Mino was sitting next to Ryan. She felt so puzzled. 'Why? I did nothing but things still come to me?' she thought.!
Ryan was about to turn her down when Betty continued, "if Mrs. Ryan can't say it out today, the Chu family will take the rings back and donate other stuff with an equal value. After all, it's a disaster that something so precious are kept in the hands of outsiders."
Everyone's face changed after hearing Betty's words. Was the Chu family challenging Ryan openly?
Ryan sat there still, but his face was completely cold!
Although Mino was the relevant person, she kept wandering outside of the topic. How could a good auction be so ridiculous? She should do whatever Miss Chu said?
Mino really felt this auction house was too unreliable!
But she didn't know that under the stage the owner of the auction house had been sweating down already!
'Mr. Ryan was involved in such a big accident. There was no need for me to stay here anymore! Miss Chu is so stupid! Is this an occasion suitable to make trouble?'
He blamed Betty for a long time unconsciously!
However, the stalemate among the three person still didn't ease at all.
Mino was absent-minded while Ryan looked cold. In the beginning, Betty was complacent, but now she was restless.
Wow, wow, she could have so many expressions!
When Ryan was about to teach Betty a lesson, Mino said, "Can Miss Chu count what you said?"
"Of course!" Even though she said so, Betty was still very nervous. She dared to challenge Mino just because she thought that Mino was a countrywoman and she must didn't know the pieces. As for the gift, she really can't decide it! But it didn't matter. Anyway, Mino couldn't speak it out, so she didn't have to worry about it!
Betty stood on the stage and looked at Mino, pretending to be calm.
When Ryan saw that Mino really wanted to say something, he immediately stopped her and said, "You don't have to say anything. I'll deal with it!"
He was about to call Betty's father to interrogate!
But Mino stopped him. She patted him on the hand to comfort him and walked up to the stage. She said, "This pair of rings are called the mandarin duck ring. It's an ancient ring which has been passed down from the age of Qin and Han dynasties. It was said that they were specially made by a great general for his sweetheart during the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty! And they engaged at will using it as a witness. But the woman was the princess of the dynasty. For the sake of the country and people, she had to marry a distant relative! The general was so sad and volunteered to the battlefield but died! And the princess died on the road of the marriage! This pair of rings was what the princess buried with! The gravedigger stole it two hundred years ago from the princess's tomb. After thousands of years, the rings were still flawless! It was said that later, it was bought by a merchant whose surname was Sun as the family heirloom. After going through several generations, they ended up with the Yuan family, wasn't this a good choice for them? Miss Chu, do you think so? "
After telling out the stories slowly, Mino challenged Betty! 'For all these years, is it easy for me to be a qualified thief?'
Such a piece of cake can got me? Defeat you at any time!'
With a complacent expression, Mino asked the last question with obvious provocation and ridicule.
Ryan was very curious. He couldn't believe that Mino knew everything about the rings, even the collector whose surname is Sun! Yes, it is the Heirloom passed down from the ancestors of his grandmother. But for the sake of his grandfather's business at that time, his grandmother had no choice but sell it. It has been grandma's lifetime concern.
After the Yuan family had rich their business, they had been trying to help grandma find this memorable thing, but they didn't find it. Grandma died with regret in the end!
But today, Mino won it back!
Looking at the appearance of Mino, she didn't seem to know this kind of thing. Was she just making up a story?
But it was impossible. How could she made up such a likely story?
Ryan asked in confusion.
At the same time, Betty's face turned red because of the provocation of Mino's words. But when she thought that Mino could tell the origin of the rings clearly, she also could not believe it!
Then she remembered what she had just said, and her face instantly turned pale!
It is really go for wool and come home shorn! But the price was too expensive!
Betty wanted to cry. She didn't know how to face her family!
Seeing Betty's look as if she had just lost one of her parents, Mino was a little bit sympathized and even wanted to say something for her.
"Don't meddle in it. She deserve it!" Ryan whispered in her ear.
Well, that's none of her business! Mino shrugged. As a matter of fact, it was Betty who wanted to make fun of her!
Humph, no way!
In the following time, both Mino and Ryan were in a good mood!
After the emerald Necklace of the Yuan family was auctioned, the auction ended.
This charity sale was quite successful.
Although Ryan didn't give the Chu family any money, he donated eighteen million in the name of Mino.
And this has made the Yuan family's reputation of being a philanthropist spread to the public! Everyone was also curious about this rich Mrs. Ryan!
