Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A woman in a cheongsam stood on the stage and rubbed the hammer awkwardly. “Is no one going to bid for it?”
She did not look familiar with it. It was obvious at a glance that this was her first time hosting an auction.
The woman nervously wiped the cold sweat off her forehead. She was a little helpless in the face of such an awkward silence.
Just as everyone thought that no one would bid for this product, the woman standing on the podium suddenly became excited and looked gratefully at the seat behind her. “Number 32, 500,000.”
The hammer hit hard and the woman raised her voice. “500,000 yuan going once!”
The surroundings were silent. No one was paying attention to the stage. They were all craning their necks to see which fool had bought it.
Gu Man calmly put down the sign. Huang Yue’s eyes flashed with mockery.
Sure enough, she was just lucky just now. She could not perform well on an occasion like this. That material was obviously extremely poor. Only people who did not know anything would bid for it.
“Sister, don’t blame me for not reminding you. The quality of this material is not good. Grandpa Cui, quickly persuade Sister.” Huang Yue deliberately called out to Old Master Cui. She raised her eyebrows slightly, revealing a smug expression.
Old Master Cui’s expression was slightly solemn. He looked at the stage and then at Gu Man with a complicated expression.
It was obvious that the material was not good. With Gu Man’s abilities, how could she bid for such a raw stone?
“Girl, why don’t you consider it again?” Even Old Master Cui, who had always believed in Gu Man, couldn’t help but be suspicious.
“It’s not expensive. I’m just bidding for fun.” Gu Man could not say that the spiritual power contained in this stone far exceeded other stones, right?
Even if she said it, no one would believe her.
Old Master Cui nodded and did not say anything else. This was because the price of stones was indeed not expensive. If Gu Man liked it, she could bid for it for fun.
Huang Yue was not very satisfied with Old Master Cui’s answer. She frowned, but at the thought that Gu Man would embarrass herself in the future, her brows relaxed.
Almost everyone was certain that Gu Man was a fool. Even the girl sitting beside Gu Man, even if she did not know anything about stone gambling, could tell from others’ expressions that this stone was definitely not good.
She recalled how Gu Man had helped her just now. Moreover, she had not bullied her for such a long time. She had not even spoken to Huang Yue. It did not look like she was colluding with Huang Yue.
Hence, the girl tugged at Gu Man’s sleeve. “That stone doesn’t look good. Why don’t you stop bidding?”
“It’s fine.” Gu Man glanced at the girl and nodded.
Huang Yue listened to their conversation with disdain on her face. This person ignored her and went to deal with a person without power and influence. She really could not see the situation clearly.
However, Gu Man immediately could not continue to be smug.
Because no one was optimistic about this stone, no one bid. Just as the woman on the stage was about to knock for the third time, a sign was suddenly raised.
The corners of Gu Ron’s lips curled up as she looked at Gu Yuan beside her. “Dad, if Sister wants this stone, let me bid for it for her. It can be considered a gift to welcome her home.”
Gu Yuan nodded in satisfaction and looked at Gu Ron with a warm gaze. “Rou’er is indeed the most sensible. If Gu Man was even half as sensible as you, 1 wouldn’t have to worry so much.”
Gu Ron smiled shyly and looked at the stage with disdain.
Of course, anyone would say nice words. Anyway, Gu Yuan did not care if this stone landed in Gu Man’s hands, as long as she did it well on the surface.
Although Gu Rou did not have any thoughts about this stone, since it was what Gu Man wanted, she had to snatch it.
Gu Man looked at Gu Rou below and curled her lips. She continued to raise the sign in her hand.
Although the spiritual power of the raw stone was abundant, the crack was indeed there. The crack would cause a portion of the spiritual power to disappear, but this crack was obviously caused by the stone cutter’s mismanagement.
It did not affect her much, but it was not necessarily the case for others..
