Chapter 269: Diamond Necklace

A burst of elegant music sounded in the hall of the charity gala, and people all sat down on the seats written on their invitations, and guests like Shi Sheng, who were brought by others, could only add their own chairs.

The staff thoughtfully found a chair for Shi Sheng, and she sat next to Gu Yueqing, the first three rows of the banquet, and she could see everything on the rostrum clearly.

There are projectors and projection facilities on the left and right sides of the rostrum, and every move on the rostrum is broadcast live with cameras.

"What are they going to do? Is there any other wonderful show? ”

Shi Sheng had never participated in this kind of occasion, she approached Gu Yueqing's side, and then asked curiously.

"There will be an auction in a while, and the things in the auction are some rare treasures, from all over the world, and the people who can come to participate in this kind of charity are the more powerful people in the upper class of society."

Gu Yueqing's eyes were looking straight ahead, but she was still carefully explaining her various problems to Shi Sheng.

"It's an auction...... Isn't this a charity gala? And who is the money for auctioning off those things? Privately contracted? ”

Shi Sheng still couldn't hold back his curiosity, stared at Gu Yueqing with big eyes and asked curiously.

“…… Why do you have so many questions? ”

Gu Yueqing turned his head to glance at Shi Sheng, but seeing her sparkling eyes like stars, Gu Yueqing couldn't bear to continue to snub her.

He sighed helplessly, and still reluctantly explained these problems to Shi Sheng:

"The money from the auction goes to the Red Cross and those who need it. The money is used for charity, not in private pockets. ”

The host on the rostrum was saying the same opening remarks, and the two of them were really not in the mood to listen to those boring words, but the people present were hindered by the presence of reporters and various cameras, all of whom controlled their boredom and did not take out their mobile phones to play.

"Oh, I see, I thought it was a private contracted party."

Shi Sheng nodded thoughtfully, it was really a long experience, when she went to school, she just shuttled between the school and the library, where she participated in such large-scale activities, even after work, people of her own status had no chance to come into contact with this kind of banquet that only upper-class people could attend, even if she didn't know, it was understandable, but looking at Gu Yueqing's already impatient face, Shi Sheng knew that she couldn't continue to ask.

Gu Yueqing didn't talk to Shi Sheng again, he just waited quietly for the charity auction to start.

“…… X X X officially begins! ”

At that time, when Sheng was absentmindedly thinking about the things in her heart, she suddenly heard a few key words, and immediately cheered up.

"It's on, it's on!"

Shi Sheng patted Gu Yueqing's leg with some excitement, but he quickly realized something, and hurriedly retracted his hand embarrassedly.

It may be that Shi Sheng's voice is a little loud, and the people around Shi Sheng heard her excited voice just now, and they all turned to look at her.

"No...... I'm sorry. ”

Shi Sheng blushed for a moment and whispered a word of apology to those people before they turned around.

Seeing that Shi Sheng had never seen the world, Gu Yueqing was a little skeptical that it was the right choice for him to bring her here.

Maybe these things will have to be experienced sooner or later. Thinking like this, Gu Yueqing was much more relieved.

"The first auction item, a Tang Dynasty Tang Sancai ......"

Shi Sheng looked at the host of the auction in front of him introducing what Tang Sancai was, the auction item was held by a professional etiquette lady, showing everyone in all directions, and the host quoted and introduced it on it.

Seeing the numbers rising and falling, Shi Sheng was a little big, she had never seen so much money, and she couldn't even understand why those people were willing to spend so much money to buy something that they didn't even dare to touch on weekdays.

Shi Sheng sat next to Gu Yueqing, listening to the words on the stage that she couldn't understand, and she even felt a little bored.

"Mr. Gu, do you have anything you want to shoot?"

Seeing that one auction item after another was successfully auctioned off and taken away by others, Gu Yueqing sat in his seat indifferently, and Shi Sheng even couldn't sit still for him.

"Yes."

Gu Yueqing's answer was just one word, which aroused all Shi Sheng's curiosity.

"Mr. Gu, what do you want to auction?"

Shi Sheng hurriedly came to Gu Yueqing's side and looked at him curiously, she thought that Gu Yueqing attended this charity meeting just to get popular, but she didn't expect him to buy things.

“……”

Gu Yueqing didn't answer Shi Sheng's words, as if he hadn't heard them.

"Mr. Gu, how do you know what is at this auction?"

Not to be outdone, Shi Sheng continued to ask, Gu Yueqing ignored her, so she continued to ask, not believing that he was not annoying.

"It's all in the invitation."

Gu Yueqing sat steadily, as if she was used to this kind of Shi Sheng, Shi Sheng felt like she was talking to a piece of wood, she sighed, or closed her mouth stupidly, just waiting to see which auction item Gu Yueqing would auction, after all, what kind of jewelry and antiques are here, she has known Gu Yueqing for so many years, and she didn't know that he actually had this hobby.

“…… Victoria's 10-carat diamond necklace, starting at 1 million! ”

Just when Shi Sheng was about to fall asleep in the venue, the sighs of a group of women around him made Shi Sheng wake up instantly. Shi Sheng saw that the women around her were stretching their necks and looking curiously at the diamond necklace in front of her, and she couldn't help but cast her gaze. But when she saw the necklace for the first time, Shi Sheng felt that she had been attracted to the necklace.

Shi Sheng had never seen such a big diamond, and the big diamond set in the necklace shimmered with charming glass light under the stage lights, like a star falling from the sky, shining in front of people.

Although the diamond is very large, it is set in the necklace and matched with exquisite workmanship, which does not make people feel very exaggerated, but has an indelible elegance.

"Two million."

Just as Shi Sheng was secretly coveting the unattainable necklace, Gu Yueqing, who was sitting next to him, suddenly made a sound.

Hearing Gu Yueqing's voice of bidding, Shi Sheng hurriedly turned his head in horror, looking at Gu Yueqing like a monster, not knowing why he wanted to buy this necklace.

"Two million eight thousand."

A foreigner not far from these two people used non-standard Chinese to ask Gu Yueqing.

"Three million!"

Gu Yueqing unceremoniously counterattacked and increased the price, Shi Sheng was already stunned when she sat aside, she didn't know what Gu Yueqing wanted to buy this necklace for, did she want to give it to Mrs. Gu? Shi Sheng guessed in his heart.

"Three and a half million."

A crisp and pretentious voice sounded at the back of the crowd, Shi Sheng turned his head to look back, and saw Yan Momo standing up and raising the price at a glance.

"Five million."

Gu Yueqing sat firmly on the chair, facing the rising price, there was no fluctuation in his eyes, as if he had expected such a result.

Seeing that Gu Yueqing suddenly added so much, the foreigner who had just asked for the price did not speak again, but Yan Momo was still insisting on competing with Gu Yueqing.

Yan Momo looked at Yan Momo, who was sitting next to Gu Yueqing, with a resentful expression, she knew Gu Yueqing, and she had never been interested in these things like collecting diamonds and antiques, Gu Yueqing spent a lot of money to buy a diamond necklace like this, isn't it just to give it to Shi Sheng's little slut, she must not let Shi Sheng succeed.

Thinking of this, Yan Momo gritted her teeth and continued to stand up and ask Gu Yueqing for the price: "Five and a half million!" ”

Seeing that Yan Momo was not to be outdone and went against him, Gu Yueqing didn't show much reaction, he just continued to hold up the sign in his hand:

"Seven million."

Calm and cold voice, as if it could penetrate other people's hearts, Shi Sheng really pinched a cold sweat for Gu Yueqing, she knew that Gu Yueqing had saved a lot of money over the years, but she didn't know that he was so rich.

"Mr. Gu, you spend so much money on a diamond necklace......"

Shi Sheng muttered quietly on the side, as if the money spent was hers.

"Seven and a half million!"

As long as Gu Yueqing said a price, Yan Momo would add 500,000 and 500,000 upwards, and it didn't seem like she had any intention of giving that necklace to Gu Yueqing.

Gu Yueqing sneered, the corners of his mouth curved upward, although he was laughing, but Shi Sheng's heart shuddered when she saw it, she didn't know what Gu Yueqing thought in her heart, according to what she knew about him on weekdays, it was absolutely impossible for him to consume so irrationally.

"Nine million."

Gu Yueqing's voice lowered, but he was still salty and unhurried.

At this time, Yan Momo, who was standing behind, began to be silent, nine million, this number is already a lot of money for her.

But seeing Shi Sheng sitting on the side, Yan Momo clenched her hands and gritted her teeth, she definitely couldn't let Shi Sheng get it so easily.

"Fifteen million!"

Just when the host was about to clap the board happily, Yan Momo suddenly shouted out a number.

"Oh my God......"

Everyone present sighed, they didn't expect that a mere diamond necklace could make them increase the price to this number, but what they didn't understand was the love and hatred between these people, if they knew, there was nothing strange.
