Chapter 135 Bracelet

"Someone has entered my pharmacy." The coldness in Ye Leng'an's eyes was obvious, "I remember, before I went out, I was told that Mrs. Zhuang never entered the pharmacy."

In that pharmacy, she cast a forbidden curse, just to prevent people from entering. In fact, even if the door is opened, those people will not be able to enter the pharmacy. There are a lot of precious pills in her pharmacy, so she doesn't trust anyone, only the forbidden spell she set.

However, as long as someone opens the door of the pharmacy, she will sense it. Just now, someone activated the forbidden spell she set.

Huangfu Ruiling frowned, and said, "I'll send someone over to look at it now."

"No need!" Ye Leng'an shook his head, and then said, "Can you find me a computer?"

Soon, Li San put a laptop in front of Ye Leng'an.

Ye Leng'an quickly tapped the keyboard with his ten fingers, lines of codes appeared on the screen, and within a few minutes, it switched to the monitoring of her villa.

When seeing the strangers in the surveillance, Ye Leng'an's eyes were full of frost, "It seems that someone treats my house as their own!"

She didn't expect that others would regard her villa as their own home after she had only been away for a short time. Now she even entertained someone. It seems that the warning she gave Mrs. Zhuang was too gentle, which is why she made the other party feel that she is easy to bully.

However, to her surprise, she saw a familiar figure in the surveillance, which was Ye Anyun. I don't know how Ye Anyun also appeared in her villa. However, thinking about it, it's not surprising that Ye Anyun has never been to her villa, so naturally he didn't know that the villa belonged to her.

Huangfu Ruiling leaned back and asked calmly, "Then what are you going to do?"

Ye Leng'an smiled mysteriously, then picked up the phone, and made a call, "Hi, hello, is this the property side? I'm the owner of villa area 103, and I'm abroad now. But through surveillance, I found that there are many strangers in the house. Please call the police for me, and wait for the police to come, so we can go over and have a look together."

After finishing speaking, she hung up the phone.

Seeing Ye Leng'an's actions like this, even Huangfu Ruiling was a little stunned when he was used to strong winds and waves.

"What? Do you think it's strange?" Ye Leng'an shook the mobile phone in his hand, and said with a smile, "I pay so much property fees to the property management company every year, and it's not for nothing. Now that I have something to do, I will naturally go to the property management company."

She didn't plan to take care of the affairs of the villa anymore, but continued to focus on the auction.

The exhibits at the auction came to the stage one by one, but it was not the turn of Seven Star Flower. Now the auction is a tiara, and the bidders are mostly women.

Watching the voices one after another, Ye Leng'an was a little bit lacking in interest. Although the crown was very beautiful, it still didn't attract her interest.

"I've seen it for so long, but you don't like it?" Huangfu Ruiling looked at Ye Leng'an, and asked, "This crown is very beautiful, do you want to take a photo of it?"

"No," Ye Leng'an refused without hesitation, "I don't like it, and even if I photograph it, it's useless, instead it takes up space."

Hearing Ye Leng'an's words, Huangfu Ruiling laughed, "If people outside hear your words, they won't know how they feel."

Ye Leng'an shrugged, not caring at all, "I'm only interested in the seven-star flower. It's a pity that it will take a while to get it!"

The crown was quickly photographed by someone Ye Leng'an knew. It was none other than Ye Xiyuan.

At this moment, in another box, the crown has already been brought in.

Looking at that luxurious crown, Ye Xiyuan was naturally very moved. However, in front of Nangong Xuyao, she still pretended not to care.

Nangong Xuyao ​​took the crown and handed it to Ye Xiyuan directly, "Xiyuan, this is for you."

"What, gave it to me?" Ye Xiyuan looked surprised, "Brother Nangong, just now, didn't you say you wanted to take a photo and give it to your aunt?"

Although she said so, she had seen through Nangong Xuyao's plan from the very beginning. This crown is not suitable for older people at all, only for young girls. Therefore, she already knew that this was what Nangong Xuyao ​​wanted to give her.

"If I didn't say that, I definitely wouldn't have let me take a picture of you just now." Nangong Xuyao ​​said with a smile, "I don't know you yet!"

"No, it's too expensive, I can't accept it." Ye Xiyuan quickly refused, "Brother Nangong, it's fine if it's an ordinary gift, but this really won't work."

"I photographed it just to give it to you." Nangong Xuyao's attitude was a bit strong, "If you don't accept it, then you will look down on this gift."

Ye Xiyuan was a little anxious, but she didn't know what to say. In the end, under Nangong Xuyao's insistence, she still accepted the gift.

However, after accepting the gift, she still spoke emphatically, "Brother Nangong, I will accept this crown, but after that, don't take pictures of me again. If you take pictures again, I will definitely not accept it."

Seeing Ye Xiyuan's insistence, Nangong Xuyao ​​laughed, and finally nodded, "Okay, got it."

Ye Xiyuan smiled faintly, then picked up the crown, and began to look at it, as if she liked it very much.

Ye Xiyuan's delicate and unaffected appearance made Nangong Xuyao's eyes involuntarily a little more pampering, and before he had time to think, he said directly, "Xiyuan, do you have any plans for the third day of the new year?"

"The third day of the new year?" Ye Xiyuan blinked, but did not answer directly, but asked, "Brother Nangong, what's the matter with you?"

"On the third day of the Lunar New Year, my mother plans to hold a banquet," Nangong Xuyao ​​explained, "At that time, I would like to invite you to be my girlfriend. Do you have time?"

Originally, he did not intend to invite Ye Xiyuan to this banquet. However, when he saw Ye Xiyuan's sincere and kind face just now, he couldn't help but say something. However, when he said it, he didn't regret it, instead he felt that his decision was correct.

He likes Ye Xiyuan, and also wants to have a future with her. Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity and bringing Ye Xiyuan to attend is also a kind of preview.

"This—" Ye Xiyuan showed a trace of embarrassment on her face. Instead of agreeing to Nangong Xuyao ​​immediately, she replied, "Brother Nangong, I still need to ask my father about this matter. I will give you an answer tomorrow, is that okay?"

She naturally knew very well what it meant to be able to attend this banquet. At the same time, she also knew in her heart that men will never cherish what is too easy to get. Therefore, no matter how happy she is in her heart, she must not show the slightest bit at this moment.

Right at this moment, the mechanical voice of the system sounded again, "Mission, to participate in this Nangong family's banquet, and gain the favor of Nangong Xuyao's mother. After completing the mission, one hundred points will be rewarded, and two intelligence points will be added. If the mission fails, ten intelligence points will be deducted. Do you accept the mission?"

As soon as Ye Xiyuan heard the task issued by the system, Ye Xiyuan immediately chose to accept it. Although she has some opinions on such unfair transactions in the system. However, this task is a sure thing now, so she naturally has to accept it.

Nangong Xuyao ​​was not surprised by Ye Xiyuan's answer. He stretched out his hand, scratched Ye Xiyuan's nose, and said with a smile, "Then I'll wait for the answer."

Such an intimate act made Ye Xiyuan's cheeks involuntarily stained with a blush.

On the other side, Ye Leng'an is still waiting boredly for the Seven Star Flower to appear. But I don't know if it's because the seven-star flower is very precious, so it's actually ranked in the bottom few. So, she could only continue to wait.

Just then, a bracelet was put on the auction block. It was impossible to tell what kind of material the bracelet was made of, but the surface of the bracelet was embossed with cumbersome but not messy elegant patterns, and the dots of silver light were as gorgeous and beautiful as a starry sky. In the middle of the pattern, there are also a few rubies inlaid as embellishments, which makes the whole bracelet seem to have improved a lot at once.

Many women at the auction had their eyes on this bracelet, and they were all eager to move, waiting to raise their placards to bid.

After the bracelet was brought to the stage, the auctioneer began to introduce, "Dear guests, the bracelet we are auctioning now has a very nice name, called A Passionate Love. It is said that this bracelet was specially made by an emperor in ancient Rome for his queen, which means his deep affection for the queen."

"After repeated appraisals, we couldn't identify what material this bracelet is made of. However, the five gemstones on this bracelet are all pure natural pigeon blood rubies over two carats. The transparency and clarity of the gemstones are the best. It is said that it took the best jewelry craftsman in ancient Rome to complete it. It can be said that this bracelet is invaluable."

"Now, the starting price for this bracelet is five million dollars. You can bid now."

As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, the women present couldn't wait to start shouting. For a time, the outcry happened one after another.

"Five hundred and thirty thousand."

"Six million."

"Six hundred and seventy thousand."

Ye Lengan sat on the seat, different from the lack of interest in the auction just now, her eyes were fixed on the bracelet at this moment. Although he hadn't started asking for a price yet, his expression clearly showed that he had developed a strong interest in the bracelet.

"You like this bracelet!" Huangfu Ruiling's tone was affirmative.

"Of course." Ye Leng'an nodded without hesitation, "This bracelet is a good thing, and it's a rare good thing, how could I not like it!"

While talking, Ye Leng'an didn't take her eyes off the bracelet, which shows how much she likes that bracelet. However, she hasn't made a move yet. Because there are too many people bidding at this time, she will not join in the fun.

Wait until there are fewer people calling prices later, she will call again. Calling the price now is purely a waste of words. The truly competitive people are all behind!

Seeing Ye Leng'an's appearance, Huangfu Ruiling chuckled, "It's rare to see you like something so much!"

"I can't see it right now. I'll show it to you when I get a picture of it." Ye Leng'an said with a smile, "However, if I don't have enough money to take pictures of the Seven Star Flowers after taking pictures of this bracelet, I may have to borrow money from you. But don't worry, I will write an IOU and pay you back in the shortest possible time."

Since she met her today, she naturally didn't want to miss it. When she was looking at the album just now, she didn't notice any difference in this bracelet. It wasn't until she saw the real thing that she was moved.

"100 million!" Huangfu Ruiling directly shouted the price.

Originally, the bracelet was only worth 35 million dollars, but the price tripled all of a sudden. Such a large sum of money made the bidders stop one after another.

Indeed, this bracelet is very beautiful. However, it is obviously not worthwhile to buy such a bracelet with 100 million US dollars.

Even the auctioneer was stunned when he suddenly heard the high price of 100 million.

However, he quickly came back to his senses, and his excited tone was trembling, "Now the guests in Box 1 are asking for a price of 100 million U.S. dollars. Is there any more price?"

"Huangfu Ruiling, what are you doing?" Ye Leng'an looked at Huangfu Ruiling who was beside him, "Why did you suddenly ask for a price? And you even asked for such a high price."

"Since you like it, then just take a picture!" Huangfu Ruiling said flatly, "There is no need to wait here."

The tone of understatement, it seems that 100 million dollars is like a hundred dollars to him. However, in fact, 100 million US dollars is really just a drop in the bucket for him.

Hearing Huangfu Ruiling's answer, Ye Leng'an felt a little speechless.

While the two were talking, the auctioneer had already announced the deal.

Looking at the transaction price, Ye Leng'an felt a little pained, "It's obvious that you don't need so much money to get something, but you have to pay a high price."

"The most important thing is what you like." Huangfu Ruiling said lightly.

Obviously, Ye Leng'an is also very clear that Huangfu Ruiling took the photo and gave it to her, and she didn't refuse, but said, "Just treat it as a favor I owe you. In the future, if you need any help, you can ask."

If it was someone else, she would definitely not accept such a gift, because it is too expensive. However, for some reason, when facing Huangfu Ruiling, she never thought of rejecting him. Perhaps, in her heart, Huangfu Ruiling is special!

However, even so, she didn't intend to promise Huangfu Ruiling anything immediately. Because she felt that emotional matters still needed to be considered carefully. So as not to mistake others and yourself when you get it.

In the box on the other side, although Ye Xiyuan was talking to Nangong Xuyao ​​with a smile on her face, she was already extremely jealous at the moment.

Just now she saw Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan enter the No. 1 box with her own eyes, so she naturally knew who the person who took the bracelet was. Huangfu Ruiling took a picture of the bracelet, it is impossible for him to wear it, it must be given to Ye Leng'an.

The crown that Nangong Xuyao ​​gave her just now was only over 30 million. Now Ye Leng'an's bracelet is three times as big as hers. How could this balance her heart!

That bracelet is obviously much better than her crown. When the bracelet was sent to the auction stage, she took a fancy to it at a glance. Of course, it is impossible for her to directly say that she likes it. You know, just now, she had made it very clear that she would never accept any gifts from Nangong Xuyao ​​again.

However, she also showed that she likes it very much. After Nangong Xuyao ​​saw it, he also wanted to take a picture of it. However, when Huangfu Ruiling called out a high price of 100 million yuan, Nangong Xuyao ​​gave up directly.

She was very unwilling in her heart, could it be that only Ye Leng'an was worthy of the 100 million bracelet, and she couldn't?

However, no matter how unwilling and jealous she is in her heart, she will never show it on the surface. Otherwise, the image she had pretended in front of Nangong Xuyao ​​all along would be destroyed. Compared to the 100 million bracelet, Nangong Xuyao ​​was obviously more important.

Seeing that Ye Xiyuan had no dissatisfaction or loss, Nangong Xuyao ​​couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Just now, he could tell that Ye Xiyuan liked that bracelet very much. Although the other party has said sternly that he will no longer accept the valuables he bought at the auction. However, he still took pictures, and then found a chance to send them out.

It's just that he didn't expect that Huangfu Ruiling, who hadn't made a move in the whole game, would suddenly bid. Moreover, the price tripled as soon as it was called.

Of course, he can afford the 100 million dollars. However, he didn't think that the bracelet was worth 100 million US dollars. Such a high price has far exceeded the value of the bracelet by many times. So, he just gave up.

In a box on the second floor, Zhong Yuyiran had a strange look on her face. At this moment, she didn't know whether she should be happy or unhappy.

She naturally knew that Huangfu Ruiling had taken the bracelet. Moreover, she also knew that the owner of this bracelet would be Ye Leng'an in the end.

What made her care was not only the bracelet itself, but also the meaning of the bracelet. With deep love, is this Huangfu Ruiling confessing his love to Ye Leng'an?

When she thought of this, her heart couldn't help but ache.

However, at the same time, there was a little luck in her heart. That night, Leng'an had already got the bracelet, and he still paid such a high price. Does that mean that Ye Leng'an's goal this time may not necessarily be the Seven Star Flower! As long as Ye Leng'an doesn't stare at the Seven Star Flower, there is a high chance that she will be able to take a picture.

She is confident that she will not lose to Ye Leng'an in the auction. However, she was not confident that she could win Huangfu Ruiling. If Huangfu Ruiling was firmly on Ye Leng'an's side, and Ye Leng'an wanted Seven Star Flowers, then she would really have no chance at all.

On this side, the auction is still going on. The discussion about the bracelet is still going on and on. However, this does not affect the next auction item.

And at the moment in China—

After more than an hour of busy work, Mrs. Zhuang has already prepared dinner and invited Li Qiaomeng to have dinner with her classmates.

After serving the table, everyone praised Mrs. Zhuang's good craftsmanship.

Although she has some doubts about Mrs. Zhuang cooking herself, but thinking about Li Qiaomeng's explanations, saying that their family has only become rich in the past few years, it seems that all this seems a bit natural.

Just as everyone was eating and chatting, the doorbell rang suddenly, and it was still very urgent.

Hearing the doorbell, Mrs. Zhuang and Li Qiaomeng couldn't help being startled, and at the same time, a bad premonition rose in their hearts. Because they know very well in their hearts, even though they are dressed brightly at the moment, sitting here, they look like their masters. But, in fact, they are just servants in this villa, not even guests.

It's just because the owner is not here at the moment, so they can pretend to be it.

Because they are not the owners of this place, it is impossible for anyone to come here to find them. Then the people who came here at this time must be looking for the real owner of this villa.

Especially Li Qiaomeng, she was already in a panic at the moment. Because here at this time, not only her classmates, but also her boyfriend. If her impersonation of a wealthy family's daughter is exposed at this time, how will she see people in school in the future! Also, Ye Anyun will definitely break up with her.

Because no one opened the door, the hasty doorbell kept ringing without stopping.

Seeing Mrs. Zhuang and Li Qiaomeng sitting there all the time, they didn't seem to intend to open the door. Everyone present felt very strange. Because whoever has a guest at home is the first to open the door. But obviously the owner of this house didn't show any signs of opening the door.

"That—" Zhao Meiyu glanced at Li Qiaomeng, and said weakly, "Qiaomeng, it seems that someone is looking for you! Do you want to go and see first, who is here?"

This sentence directly expressed the aspirations of the people present.

"Hehe." The smile on Li Qiaomeng's face was a bit forced, and her expression was a little weird, "Actually, we don't know anyone here, so we don't know who came to the door. Besides, apart from you, we didn't invite other guests to our house today. So, this may be the wrong way. We will leave later."

Although Li Qiaomeng said so, the people outside the door seemed to have no intention of leaving. The doorbell was still ringing persistently, as if he would never let it go if he didn't see the people in the house.
