When she heard Box 2 only added another million, Yun Zijin mentally grumbled, ’How stingy.’
At that moment, the person in Box 3 bid again: "Sixty-five million!"
Yun Zijin raised an eyebrow. ’Box 3 probably hasn’t hit its limit yet.’
"Box 3 bids sixty-five million! Any higher bids?"
The auctioneer’s mood was on a complete roller coaster today. The people who came were all heavy hitters!
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
Just then, someone knocked on the door of Box 1, where Yun Zijin and Lu Yunque were.
Lu Yunque and Yun Zijin exchanged a glance. Lu Yunque gestured for her to stay seated, then stood up himself to check the peephole and see who was knocking.
"Who is it?"
Yun Zijin asked.
"It’s Fu Ze and the others. No idea what’s gotten into them, but they’ve come to our box."
On a formal occasion like this, Fu Ze and the others were representing their families, which was why they hadn’t shared a box with Lu Yunque and Yun Zijin from the start.
But Lu Yunque hadn’t expected them to drop by halfway through.
Lu Yunque opened the door to find three men, each with his own distinct style, standing outside.
"What are you guys doing here? Didn’t your families give you an earful?"
Lu Yunque wasn’t thrilled about anyone interrupting his private time with Yun Zijin.
Unfortunately, things didn’t go his way.
"What could they say? I told them I was coming to find you, and they couldn’t have been happier."
Li Yuexing still had that same carefree air about him. Anyone who didn’t know him would never guess he was the director and president of the Li Group.
Lu Yunque gave a noncommittal response. "Find a place to sit. Just don’t get in our way."
They were here now. After all, they went way back to their childhood. He couldn’t just turn them away.
"Don’t you worry, we absolutely won’t disturb you."
Seeing Lu Yunque and Yun Zijin together in the box, Fu Ze sighed inwardly. ’Old Lu has it good. Even at an auction, he has his girlfriend with him.’
He thought of his own girlfriend, who was probably still busy at her shop right now.
"Help yourselves to fruit and drinks. Make yourselves at home."
Yun Zijin offered the fruit plate in front of her to the three men, but they refused.
It was obviously a fruit platter prepared especially for Yun Zijin. What would it look like if they ate from it?
If word got out, they’d lose all face.
"No, no, Zijing, you eat it. We’re fine with just water."
Li Yuexing pushed the fruit plate back toward Yun Zijin, but she had no time to pay attention to it anymore.
The bidding for the Violet cufflinks and brooch set had reached a fever pitch.
With a wave of her hand, Yun Zijin declared, "One hundred million!"
"Box 1 bids one hundred million! One hundred million! Are there any higher bids? One hundred million, going once!"
"You... Zijing, don’t tell me you’re buying those cufflinks and that brooch for Old Lu?"
Li Yuexing had to admit, he was genuinely a little jealous.
In the end, he just hadn’t been aggressive enough; he’d made his move a little slower than Lu Yunque. Otherwise, the one receiving a hundred-million-yuan gift right now might have been him.
"Mr. Lu gave me a blue diamond worth four hundred and thirty million. This is a return gift."
Yun Zijin pointed to the natural blue diamond, the size of a baby’s fist, sitting on the table.
Only then did the others notice the natural blue diamond resting on a black velvet cloth inside an exquisite wooden box on the table.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t still be a workaholic who did nothing but work.
