The Villains' Pampering Is Too Great!

Chapter 109: Auction

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Seeing the little girl’s round eyes that seemed to be filled with disbelief, Lu Beiqing pinched her chubby face with his slender fingers.

“Shh… don’t tell her that she’s a substitute.”

Lu Beiqing’s voice was gentle, but his words sounded like those of a villain.

Of course, Lu Xiaocha knew that Bai Yunyi was a substitute. She was not surprised that Lu Beiqing knew about it. After all, it was no secret among his friends that Leng Yunting had not gotten over his ex.

However, she never expected that her brother’s standards for choosing actors were actually like this!

“The auction is starting soon. Is there anything you want?”

Lu Xiaocha shook her head. Why did she feel that her second brother was courting death? But this matter… was not his fault, right?

A certain young lady thought very protectively.

Lu Beiqing brought his little sister back to the banquet hall. Coincidentally, Lu Beichen was looking for her and they bumped into each other.

“Where have you been, Xiaocha?”

Then he saw the person beside her. “Second Brother? You’re here too?”

Lu Beiqing nodded and rubbed Lu Beichen’s head.

“Not so old-fashioned anymore.”

The moment he spoke, Lu Beichen felt like hitting him.

“The auction is about to begin. Let’s go over.”

After the Lu family gathered, Pei Anran also looked at Lu Beiqing in surprise.

“Why are you here, second boy? I thought you didn’t like these occasions?”

Lu Beiqing said frankly, “To buy a gift for my sister.”

Pei Anran said, “Then let’s take a look. If there’s nothing you like, I remember that there’s a relatively large auction in Country F at the end of the month. We’ll go take a look then.”

Although everyone would take out some presentable items for a private auction like this, it was not as grand as a formal auction after all.

No matter where the family went, they were like glowing bodies. Many young girls could not help but secretly blush and look over.

Their gazes mainly landed on Lu Beilin and Lu Beifeng.

“Isn’t that Director Lu? Why is he walking with the Lu family?”

“They’re all surnamed Lu. They’re either relatives or he’s their son!”

“No way? Is the Lu family a young talent harvester? Why are all the good and outstanding people in their house?”

Those present, especially those in the entertainment industry, found it even more unbelievable.

Director Lu was a genius director. Every movie was a resource that celebrities in the entertainment industry wanted.

He was currently ranked eighth among the top ten international directors.

Don’t underestimate this ranking. One had to know that the directors before Lu Beiqing had been filming for most of their lives, and most of them were foreigners.

Lu Beiqing was a rising star. In just three years, he had soared from an unknown small-time director to the number one director in the country and ranked eighth internationally.

Every director ranked before him was old enough to be his father.

Lu Beiqing was very famous, but he kept a low profile. Other than appearing in movies, he seemed to be invisible.

He never advertised his own films, let alone going on interviews.

Therefore, so far, only those who had worked with him knew what he looked like. Not a single photo had been leaked online.

This genius director was actually related to the Lu family!

Many people present started to think, but since the auction was about to begin, they could only hold back their thoughts for the time being.

After sitting down, the lively atmosphere gradually quietened down. Under the host of the Leng family, the auction officially began.

The first auction item was an antique porcelain bottle that was auctioned off by someone who liked to collect antiques.

The second, the third…

Lu Xiaocha watched with disinterest, feeling a little bored.

Lu Beichen secretly stuffed a small handful of peeled sunflower seeds into her hand.

She looked down and her eyes lit up.

“Brother!”

Lu Beichen raised his index finger to his lips to signal her not to speak loudly.

“Eat.”

Lu Xiaocha lowered her voice and whispered in his ear, “You’re the best!”

Her voice was soft and sweet. Lu Beichen’s face was tense, but his heart was filled with joy.

The other brothers and her dad were speechless.

Why didn’t they think of that? And when did this young brat peel sunflower seeds!

Lu Beiqing was the only one who was at a loss. He still did not know how much of a foodie his sister was.

Lu Xiaocha ate the sunflower seeds and stared at the items being auctioned above. She was no longer sleepy.

Finally, a beautiful accessory appeared on the auction stage.

“This is the Emerald Necklace of Heart of the Forest donated by Madam Leng. I’m sure everyone has heard of the name ‘The Spirit of the Forest’. The starting price is now one million…”

The oval emerald shone brightly in the light. When the jeweled necklace was taken out, everyone was still in disbelief.

The Leng family had really invested a lot this time. They actually took out this necklace.

Who among the noble ladies present did not like such beautiful gemstone necklaces, especially this Heart of the Forest?

Hence, the auction venue immediately became fanatical.

It turned out that sometimes when a woman went crazy, the man was completely incomparable.

Soon, the price of the necklace reached three million, and the price continued to rise.

Wang Miaozhu raised her sign again.

“Four million. Four million going once.”

“Madam number twelve here at four and a half million.”

Wang Miaozhu clenched her fists tightly and hurriedly sent a message to Liao Zhongxian to transfer 10 million yuan to her card.

Liao Zhongxian: [You’re crazy! Don’t forget how much trouble you caused me previously. Wang Miaozhu, don’t push your luck.]

Wang Miaozhu didn’t stand on ceremony either. [Don’t forget that the company’s funds are all replenished by my family!]

They didn’t act like husband and wife. They were more like enemies.

When she saw the notification on her cell phone, Wang Miaozhu smiled.

She couldn’t help but look at Pei Anran. Seeing that she didn’t raise her sign, Wang Miaozhu thought maliciously that Lu Zhan must have despised her for spending too much money on the jade she bought last time.

On the surface, they looked glorious, but in private, who knew?

“Seven million.”

Wang Miaozhu raised her sign proudly.

By the time she reached 7 million, there were only one or two people competing. In the end, when Wang Miaozhu shouted 8 million, the person who had been competing with her hesitated and didn’t continue.

“Do we have any further bids for eight million? Eight million going once, eight million going twice, eight-”

“Nine million.”

Pei Anran, who had been silent, slowly raised the sign in her hand when she was about to shout for the third time.

Wang Miaozhu was so close to getting it. She was almost angered to death.

She glared at Pei Anran with red eyes and concluded that she had done it on purpose.
