“Then I won’t stand on ceremony with you!” Xia He said excitedly.

Most of the people there had already taken their seats. It was soon time for the auction to start and the bidding exercise officially commenced.

The auction house would usually start with a few small items as a form of warmup and entertainment. Many rich ladies bidded enthusiastically to fire up the atmosphere. Xia He looked at the jewelry being presented without any interest and even yawned at some point.

In the photos attached to the auction list, the jewelry looked so bright and beautiful, but they did not look as nice in real life. Xia He was quite disgruntled about this.

“I don’t think this whole thing is impressive at all. Are you lying to me about all this?” Xia He complained.

“This is just the tip of the iceberg. They’re just fooling around now. The good stuff will only appear later. Don’t fall asleep yet,” Qiao Mei informed her in a low voice. Discover new chapters at novelhall.com

“I’ll believe you one more time!” Xia He said as she tried her best to keep her eyes open.

If not for the fact that each bid was 5,000 dollars, Qiao Mei would have bought it at the base price. She could not bear to spend even a single cent more!

Amy looked at Qiao Mei and snorted coldly before saying, “What a fool. I wonder how such a fool manages to defeat Young Master Shen.”

“Sister Amy, don’t be angry- The next item is more interesting!” Tina, the woman beside Amy, said.

The next item was a set of loose pigeon blood rubies. There were three uncut gems of various sizes on the tray. When Xia He saw the items, she immediately became more awake. This was the item she liked. They were all about the same size as the ruby which Qiao Mei gave her. If she could get these three, she could make a headdress with them!

“This is item number A7347, a set of beautiful pigeon blood rubies. Without further ado, let me announce the base price! 100,000 dollars and each bid at 10,000 dollars! Let’s start now!” The moment the auctioneer finished his sentence, many rich women scrambled to raise the signs in their hands.

Very quickly, the price of this set of pigeon blood rubies had already reached 360,000 dollars. Xia He only set aside a budget of 200,000 dollars. She could not bear to pay too high a price.

“It’s alright, just bid if you like them. They’re worth it,” Qiao Mei reminded her softly.

Xia He raised the sign in her hand excitedly and shouted, “400,000 dollars!”

There was a moment of silence.. Suddenly, Amy raised her sign and shouted, “450,000!”
