Chapter 2209: Her Desire to Win
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Madam Rong set a final price for herself.
If it exceeded 20 million, she would give up on it.
“20 million! Is there anyone bidding higher than Madam Rong?”
This figure made the man beside Shen Rou hesitate.
After all, although he wanted to make Shen Rou happy, she hadn’t confirmed anything with him yet.
Was it worth it to spend 20 million on a woman?
Just as the man was hesitating, the discussions started again.
“Do you think Young Master Chen will continue bidding? I think he’s hesitating.”
“He’s bidding for this jewelry set for Shen Rou, right? Now that everyone knows about this, wouldn’t Shen Rou feel embarra.s.sed if he gave up?”
“That’s right. If it was Mo Yesi, he’d probably spend a hundred million yuan to get it. If he doesn’t, it means that Shen Rou’s worth is only 20 million yuan in his heart. Isn’t this a slap to her face?”
This group of people discussed as they watched Shen Rou.
Shen Rou wasn’t interested in the man beside her.
Hence, she didn’t feel anything about him spending money on jewelry to please her.
But hearing the discussions around her, her expression changed.
Seeing that this group of people seemed to be waiting to see her make a fool of herself, she bit her lip. Her compet.i.tive spirit was triggered, and she couldn’t stay calm anymore.
She turned around and pretended not to know that the man was bidding for the jewelry to please her. She whispered to him, “Chairman Chen, this set of jewelry is very beautiful. I like it very much. Chairman Chen, can you kindly stop raising the price? Give this jewelry set to me.”
“Miss Shen likes it?”
“Yes, this jewelry set is too beautiful. I liked it the first time I saw it. I want to take a picture of it. I wonder if Chairman Chen can…”
The man was entranced by her beautiful face.
Shen Rou lowered her voice as if she was whispering sweet nothings into the man’s ear. “Chairman Chen, can I? I really want this jewelry set.”
The man was still hesitating whether to continue bidding.
Hearing Shen Rou’s gentle voice beside his ear, he felt as if his bones were melting. He was so excited that his blood was boiling. He immediately said, “If Miss Shen likes it, I’ll give it to you.”
“How can I do that? How can I let you spend on something I want?” Shen Rou rejected him decisively.
The more she rejected it, the more the man wanted to give it to her.
“Why not? Miss Shen’s liking is more important than anything else. Such jewelry is meant for a beauty like Miss Shen. Besides Miss Shen, no one else is worthy of this jewelry set.”
“But it’s too expensive…” Shen Rou looked conflicted.
“As long as Miss Shen likes it, it doesn’t matter how expensive it is.” The man looked at her with infatuation and expressed his loyalty excitedly. “Miss Shen, please don’t reject me. Give me a chance to gift it to you.”
With that, as if afraid that Shen Rou would reject him again, the man immediately raised his bidding sign. “25 million.”
“Wow!”
The crowd gasped.
“Young Master Chen is so generous to Shen Rou. He must really like her.”
“No one should be partic.i.p.ating in this bid anymore.. It seems like this jewelry set is going to fall into Shen Rou’s hands.”
