Chapter: 206
The atmosphere in the hall was lively, with guests competing fiercely.
Xióu Cháng Kūn watched with relish, only wishing he had more money in his pocket and wouldn't feel too embarrassed to raise his paddle.
However, Ye Chen didn't have much interest in these antiques.
Because these items were valuable, but only suitable for collection, they didn't have much value to him.
Just then, the etiquette mistress brought up a white ceramic plate with a purple pearl necklace on it, shining brightly under the light!
The auctioneer introduced: "Purple natural pearls from East China, one in every thousand shellfish can find one, the necklace is round and even in size, it's a rare treasure."
This purple pearl necklace was not expensive, only forty thousand.
Ye Chen lifted his head and immediately shouted out the price.
"Fifty thousand!"
Xióu Cháng Kūn's eyelid jumped, quickly saying: "Why bother bidding! A necklace worth tens of thousands is crazy! Forty thousand is just throwing away money! Don't bid!"
Ye Chen looked at the pearl necklace, thinking about Xióu Initial, smiled and said: "I think Initial would look great wearing it, the pearl has a calming effect, she's been under too much stress lately, having trouble sleeping."
When he said it was for his daughter, Xióu Cháng Kūn thought of something but wisely closed his mouth.
This item's collection value isn't high, so no one bid on it.
Just as the auctioneer was about to strike a gong, suddenly a voice rang out.
"Sixty thousand!"
Ye Chen looked around in surprise.
He only saw Qin Ao Dong, that reckless guy from the Qin family, revealing his head from the side, with a cold smile on his face, saying to Ye Chen: "Excuse me, I also fell for this pearl necklace!"
Ye Chen couldn't help but furrow his brow. What kind of coincidence is this? Isn't he supposed to be under house arrest by Qin Gang?
Qin Ao Dong has been having a really tough time lately.
After causing trouble earlier, he was brutally beaten by his second uncle and even got put under house arrest.
However, with his extreme love for antique artifacts, he couldn't afford to miss such a high-level auction.
So, he spent all morning getting ready and rushed out to participate in the auction, only to find himself face-to-face with Ye Chen again.
He had always looked down on Ye Chen, thinking that his second uncle was completely taken in by this kid.
But he didn't dare confront Ye Chen directly, watching as Ye Chen bid on the item. He then quickly joined in the bidding, although it was futile, hoping to make Ye Chen uncomfortable at least.
Ye Chen glanced at him and turned away coldly, continuing to bid. JrNovels.com
