Chapter: 4082
Moreover, her confidence wasn't spared from being battered by those crazy bidders behind her.
It's undeniable that relying on backdoor entry, her wealth value among these more than 200 people is absolute bottom.
And Ye Cheng earned over 17.4 billion yuan tonight by selling Revival Elixir, all in US dollars.
However, Ye Cheng, who earned over a thousand billion, was still humble in front of these three elderly people.
He personally poured wine for the three and stood up to raise his cup, saying with propriety: "I thank you all for coming from afar to support my late years. This cup of wine is dedicated to you three!"
The three people didn't intend to stand up at the same time, but Ye Cheng quickly said: "Please sit down. This cup of wine is my tribute to you all as a latecomer. Please don't be too polite."
Lai Qing Hua hurriedly said: "Ye Shouye, I am a..."
As soon as Ye Cheng heard him about to bring up his fate again, he quickly interrupted him and began: "Mr. Lai, let's not talk about fate at this table. If I didn't recognize you, I would still give you my seat on the bus. You don't need to be too polite with me now either."
Ye Zhongquan was indeed enjoying Ye Cheng's respect, so he quickly urged Lai Qing Hua: "Mr. Lai, just sit comfortably and don't make it difficult for Cheng'er."
Lai Qing Hua then nodded slightly, bowed, and said: "Ye Shouye, I'll excuse myself then!"
Ye Cheng smiled slightly and looked at the old queen beside him. The old queen was now even more anxious and felt that she was neither sitting nor standing, with her legs exerting a gentle force to maintain some distance between her bottom and chair, appearing as dignified as ever.
Ye Cheng quickly said: "Madam Ilia, you don't need to be so polite either. Please sit down."
The old queen finally sat back down in her chair, expressing gratitude: "I also want to thank Ye Cheng for his unconventional invitation. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the qualification to participate in this auction."
Ye Cheng smiled and said: "I think you started bidding quite fiercely at first, how did it feel?"
The old queen blushed and said: "That was my mistake... I thought I could get a chance to bid on all the items or maybe even get the first batch of Spring Dan, but who would have thought that the first one would go for 20 billion dollars, far exceeding our entire Ilia family's wealth..."
Ye Cheng smiled slightly and said: "Actually, inviting you as a VIP was because I hoped you could join me in creating a scene here, and instead of bidding yourself, it would be somewhat beneath your stature."
The old queen chuckled twice to herself, thinking: "What's the point of being beneath my stature? If I could get one batch of Spring Dan, I'd even willing to give up everything..."
But she couldn't bring herself to say that out loud and could only say with a humble tone: "You're right, Mr. Ye, I was a bit impulsive."
Ye Cheng shook his head seriously and said: "I'm not saying you were impulsive, I'm saying you don't need to compete with them because as a VIP, your status here is higher than theirs, regardless of whether your assets are more or less than theirs."
The old queen heard these words and finally felt her self-esteem lift.
Although she wasn't skilled enough in reality, Ye Cheng's acknowledgement gave her the confidence to stand tall.
In fact, tonight's auction may not have resulted in her getting the Spring Dan, but attending as a VIP also left her feeling proud.
She hastened to say with gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for looking up to me like this. Our entire Ilia family is also grateful to Mr. Ye for your help..."
As she finished speaking, she hastily pulled out her granddaughter Helena and said sincerely: "Helena often recites poems to Mr. Ye in front of me, and this time she has been longing to see Mr. Ye again very much, but since she has ascended the throne, she is restricted by her royal identity and cannot go abroad at will, so please excuse her..."
Ye Cheng knew that the old queen was deliberately mentioning Helena, which was actually an attempt to draw closer to him. JrNovels.com
