“Welcome, distinguished guests, to the auction today. On behalf of everyone in the Feng Lin Auction House, I would like to thank you all for coming.” Gu Qingyou’s deep and captivating voice was amplified by the effect of spiritual power. His voice spread throughout the hall to ensure that everyone could hear him. “Everyone is familiar with the process of this auction. This time, our auction house has prepared many rare auction items. Now, let’s not talk too much. Let’s take a look at the first auction item first.”
As Gu Qingyou’s voice fell, the maid quickly pushed a transparent gla.s.s cover over. The cover was square, and inside it was a crimson dress. The gorgeous colors were dazzling, like the dazzling sunset in the sky. For some reason, the material of this dress was especially thin, and it even gave off an ethereal aura. It was obvious that it was not an ordinary item.
“What everyone is looking at now is the exhibit of our auction house this time, the Heavenly Crimson Gown. It was rumored that this robe only existed in the heavens. A woman who could possess it will remain forever youthful.” Gu Qingyou looked at the audience and introduced the Heavenly Crimson Gown. As soon as he said this, the eyes of all the women present lit up.
Eternal youth. These simple words were something that countless women yearned for. It was no wonder that everyone was so excited.
“Beautiful, it’s really beautiful.” Lady Zhou looked at the dress and quickly asked Lady Wen, “Hui’er, don’t you think this dress matches Qian’er perfectly?”
Lady Wen nodded repeatedly, “Yes, Mother. Qian’er will definitely look good in this dress.”
“Grandmother, Aunt, there’s really no need…” Seeing how excited these two women were, Su Qian quickly stopped them.
“Why not? Buy, I have to buy it.” Lady Zhou waved her hands casually and the matter was settled, not giving Su Qian a chance to resist.
Su Qian frowned helplessly.
Her grandmother was too domineering. She did not give her a chance to reject her at all!
Meanwhile, Gu Qingyou also began the bidding. “This Heavenly Crimson Gown is the first exhibit, so the starting price is very cheap. It only costs 800 taels of silver.”
This was simply too cheap. Everyone hurriedly began to bid.
“I offer 900 taels!”
“1,000 taels!”
“I bid 1,200 taels!”
“1,500 taels!”
Lady Zhou was also eager to join in the fun. Who knew that before she could speak, Xiao Yan beside her preempted her.
“5,000 taels of gold.” Xiao Yan’s deep voice was like fine wine. After it faintly sounded, the enthusiastic crowd immediately fell into a deathly silence.
Everyone’s gazes simultaneously turned toward Xiao Yan on the third floor, everyone was stunned.
What did it mean by rich and overbearing? What were inhumane tyc.o.o.ns!
Everyone fell silent. No one dared to compete with Xiao Yan, no one had the financial power to do so.
Su Qian looked at Xiao Yan suspiciously.
Why did this man buy the Heavenly Crimson Gown?
Su Qian thought about it. What else could Xiao Yan do? It was nothing more than giving it to a girl to make her happy.
Seeing Xiao Yan look at the Heavenly Crimson Gown with a satisfied expression, Su Qian didn’t know why, but her heart felt sour and swollen. It was as if she was suffocated by waterlogged cotton. The frustration couldn’t go up or down. In short, it was very uncomfortable.
Su Qian tried her best to ignore the annoyance that rose in her heart and kept her emotions hidden. She remained calm and watched as Gu Qingyou struck the gavel and the maid of the auction house brought the garment up.
“Your Highness is truly generous. 1 wonder which young lady His Highness is planning to give this garment to?” Lady Zhou thought that Xiao Yan had other young ladies that he liked, and her heart was filled with joy..
