Chapter 94: Charity Auction
"Wen Xiao had an accident that night."
Su Linzhe said. Wen Xiao had an accident, Qin Nuo didn't know. But in the early morning of that day, Mu Yushen called himself because of Jiang Yicheng's matter, and he was naturally clear.
"Huh?" Qin Nuo was stunned and was about to ask something, but saw that Mu Yushen next to him had already turned around and walked in the direction where Wen Xiao was.
At today's dinner, Mu Yushen knew that someone would set a trap for Wen Xiao, and he naturally wouldn't let her out of his sight.
As for Gu Yue......
Mu Yushen completely ignored it.
After a while, after most of the guests entered the venue, a host soon announced the start of the charity dinner on the host stage in front of them.
Tonight's charity banquet, in addition to some free activities such as eating, drinking, dancing, etc., which are common banquets, there is also an eye-catching process, that is, charity auction!
That is, the organizer will take advantage of today's dinner to auction some items at the dinner. The philanthropists present can bid, and all the money from the auction will be donated to charity.
Many of the philanthropists present did not just pay lip service to charity, and at this time, there were already many people waiting for the auction process to be a little later in the future. If you can bid for something later, you will not only be able to do charity, but also earn face and a good reputation for yourself.
And face and good reputation, obviously, are the things that the bigwigs in the celebrity circle care about the most.
The charity auction didn't make people wait long. At about eight o'clock in the evening, the host went to the podium on time and spoke the opening remarks. The opening remarks were undoubtedly a few words of thanks and a brief introduction to the auction process.
At this time, everyone at the scene had already sat down, raised their heads and looked at the hosting stage.
Wen Xiao is no exception. At this time, her eyes were fixed on the projection screen next to the host. What was showing on the projection screen at this time was only the promotional cover of the charity night.
The host had already spoken: "Ladies and gentlemen, we will hold a small charity auction at the charity dinner tonight. All the items auctioned today are donated by people who are passionate about public welfare, and we will invest all of the final auction results into charity. Tonight, our auction debut will be – look at the big screen next to me......"
The host sold a pass. Everyone's eyes were more focused on the projection screen. After a while, I saw that the promotional cover on the projection screen had been transferred to today's auction debut.
Since the host uses the word "debut", it is obvious that the first item to be auctioned will not be ordinary.
Wen Xiao expected that it would not be ordinary.
Still, when she saw the first item to be auctioned, she was shocked.
"This bracelet is nameless, but everyone should be able to see at a glance that this jade bracelet is worth a lot of money." The host glanced sideways at the projection screen and said suddenly.
Expensive?
Isn't it a lot of money!
Wen Xiao's gaze subconsciously looked sideways not far away. Not far from her...... The man sitting was Mu Yushen. And the bracelet that is being shown on the projection screen is blood-colored, crystal clear, and finely workmanlike, which is particularly amazing, isn't it Mu Yushen...... I polished it myself before, and I wanted to give it to his sweetheart, and then I planned to give it to myself?
Yes!
Wen Xiao didn't guess wrong.
At this time, the debut red bracelet on the projection screen was donated by Mu Yushen.
As for why donate?
The reason is very simple - Wen Xiao said that he didn't like it before. Whatever the reason for not liking it, anyway, she didn't want to wear it.
And Mu Yushen could see that she didn't seem to want to take a second look at the bracelet he had carefully polished.
Although there are some things that he is not convenient to explain. However, Mu Yushen thought that a certain little woman really hated this bracelet. Last time, it was also this bracelet that made her unhappy. In this case, no matter how much effort he spends on polishing, as long as she says "I don't like it", he can easily give it up.
Anyway, that reason...... He should never explain it to her for the rest of his life.
……
"Wow wow, what a beautiful ......"
"It's so beautiful, I've never seen such a bright red jade, the color is so even."
"It's so finely polished, who is this from?"
At the scene, some noblewomen or female celebrities, or rich daughters, couldn't help but praise when they saw this bracelet.
Women are always defenseless to beautiful jewelry.
The host smiled and said: "This thing was donated by the new president of Senteng Group, and the starting price is 80 million, and the price will be increased by 10 million each time." ”
As soon as the host's words came out, the audience was shocked again.
The new president of Senteng Group?
Hiss......
The exclamation of the audience was suddenly replaced by the sound of gasping.
The new president of Senteng Group, then, did he also attend today's dinner?
The young CEO of a well-known company across the world? The rumored Mu family grandson who has a business background and military and political backers?
The No. 1 golden bachelor in the country that no one dares to mess with?
Hiss......
The focus of the audience immediately shifted from the bracelet to the person who donated the bracelet. It's a pity that even if the host says so, they can't be sure that Mu is always on the scene. After all, Mr. Mu has not been in office for a long time, and he has not come out to participate in public events at all, and it is said that he also hates these. Therefore, not many people recognized Mu Yushen at the scene.
As for those who recognized it, as well as the organizers who had greeted Mu Yushen in advance, Mu Yushen gave them a word, don't be too loud. Low profile!
All in all, he didn't want to be surrounded by a crowd of compliments. If that's the case, I'm afraid he won't even have time to take care of Wen Xiao.
Therefore, when the host introduced, Mu Yushen did not get up, and the host did not look at him.
And everyone didn't look anywhere when they saw the host say that Mr. Mu, but guessed that it was likely that Mr. Mu was not at the scene. However, in the next second, men and women began to desperately shout the price:
"90 million ......"
"100 million ......"
"130 million ......"
"150 million ......"
……
If it was before, no matter how amazing the red bracelet was, I am afraid there would not be such a fierce bidding. But now, after knowing that it was donated by the president of Senteng, many entrepreneurs who didn't even have the heart to buy began to cheer. After all, this way is also a way to throw an olive branch to the other party. The Mr. Mu who can let Senteng know how much he gives him face.
After Wen Xiao heard the bidding around him, he pursed his mouth and didn't say anything, but frowned. In fact, although she likes jewelry, she is not too extravagant, and if she can use it for charity, she is happy with both hands. It's just that this bracelet ...... Wen Xiao thought that after all, this bracelet had been polished by a certain man for a year, but she could imagine how much he valued this thing at the beginning, and now she donated it like this, she inevitably felt a little unbearable.
Mu Yushen's move, she can be considered to understand a little. I'm afraid that he wants to tell her in this way that in his heart, there are no other sweethearts who are not sweethearts. Whether it was in the past or not, in short, he doesn't care about it now, and he gives it all up.
Such a move really made Wen Xiao feel slightly at ease.
Merely...... That bracelet, after all, has been polished by people for a whole year, and Mu Yushen must have cherished it.
At this end, Wen Xiao is thinking nonsense. Before you know it, the auction price has reached 300 million.
And at this moment, a crisp voice suddenly sounded, disturbing Wen Xiao's thoughts-
"Four hundred million!"
This sound came from a position not far from Wen Xiao's back seat.
Wen Xiao turned his head, and many people also turned their heads along Wen Xiao's line of sight, and at a glance they caught a glimpse of the person who was bidding at this time-Gu Yue! The second look at her, the woman who still makes people feel amazing!
Gu Yue, who was slowly holding the sign at this time, with a calm smile in his eyes, was focusing on the projection of the red bracelet.
Wen Xiao remembered that Mu Yushen said that Gu Yue knew about the bracelet he polished.
Did she recognize it? Mu Yushen's things were also involved in the bargaining.
The host was overjoyed and praised, "Miss Gu is worthy of being the daughter of the Gu family, the future head of the Gu family, this boldness and dedication to charity is simply a contemporary female general." 400 million, is there anything else to follow? ”
Without the host's introduction, almost everyone present already knew Gu Yue's identity. All of a sudden, even those who had the intention to snap the picture shut up and didn't continue to follow?
This can be regarded as giving face to this eldest lady of the ancient family. If you don't give face to the Gu family, many people don't have the courage.
Correct......
"Five hundred million!"
I don't want to, at such a moment, there is really a way to continue to follow the price.
When the person who followed the price spoke up, the host was taken aback and instantly froze in place.
Mr. Mu?
In the crowd, the man who held up a sign and shouted 500 million loudly, isn't it? Mu Yushen?
Others don't know what Mr. Mu looks like. But the host had seen it in advance. She was confused for a moment. What's the situation? Why do you want to take back the things you donated?
"Six hundred million."
didn't want to, but Gu Yue continued to follow the price.
"Seven hundred million." Mu Yushen continued to follow.
Wen Xiao was stunned, and he didn't quite understand Mu Yushen's move. Did he deliberately want to raise the price and embarrass Gu Yue, so that she could auction it at a higher price?
However, Wen Xiao was clearly wrong in his prediction.
Because, in the next snap shot, Mu Yushen obviously had no intention of backing down. Gu Yue followed, he would continue to follow if he didn't want to. In the end, the bracelet was auctioned at a price of one billion.
Now, Wen Xiao understands!
Mu Yushen didn't mean to raise the price for Gu Yue, he was just reluctant to give up this bracelet, reluctant to polish it carefully, and the bracelet that should have been worn on the hand of his sweetheart was finally worn on the woman who once wanted to destroy this bracelet.
In this way, Wen Xiao originally felt a little relieved, but he felt inexplicably. The past in Mu Yushen's heart is actually difficult to give up.
