Upon hearing her bid, Chen Shiqing felt a bit unsettled in her heart.
After all, fifty million is not a small amount. She thought this illegitimate daughter of the fallen Qiao family would at most offer twenty or thirty million.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Mo’s financial strength exceeded her imagination.
However, since she had already spoken, she naturally couldn’t back down, though she couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous inside.
If her family found out she spent so much money fighting over a dress, she’d surely be scolded harshly by her father when she returned.
But today, she couldn’t lose. She had to snatch the dress from this ignorant woman and make her realize that so things were not for soone of her status to covet!
Yet she still hesitated, and said to Qiao Mo again, "So, Miss Qiao truly does not intend to let go of this?"
Qiao Mo seed to see through her guilt, and smiled faintly, "Miss Chen, do you still intend to raise the bid?"
Upon being questioned like this, Chen Shiqing certainly wouldn’t give up. She bit her lip and went all in, "It’s rare for to like sothing, one hundred million."
Her words caused a stir all around!
Everyone started to chatter.
"Is Chen Shiqing crazy, spending so much money on such a dress?"
"Who wouldn’t say so! But with her wealth, she probably doesn’t care."
"That’s too outrageous, though. That’s one hundred million—it could buy a pretty decent house in Jiang City."
"Haven’t you realized yet? It seems there’s so kind of grudge between Chen Shiqing and Qiao Mo. What’s being contested now isn’t the dress at all."
...
Even Qiao Mo was montarily stunned when she heard Chen Shiqing’s bid.
One hundred million.
Deducting Longchang’s thirty-five percent, there’d still be sixty-five million left.
Thinking of this, excitent coursed through Qiao Mo’s veins.
Initially seeing Chen Shiqing, she thought this person was here to annoy her, but now it seed she was practically bringing money to her!
But Qiao Mo’s expression wasn’t interpreted that way by Chen Shiqing.
Hmph, one hundred million.
She was curious to see where Qiao Mo could co up with that sum of money.
Truth be told, she felt a twinge of pain too. The Chen family school was strict; her monthly allowance was only twenty million.
Now, in one go, half a year’s living expenses were gone. It was a lie to say it didn’t hurt.
However, thinking about seeing the unwilling expression on Qiao Mo’s face made it all feel worth it.
"How about it? Does Miss Qiao plan to raise the bid further?" Her eyes shone with a glimr of pride.
Qiao Mo remained silent.
The crowd beside them couldn’t help but start discussing again: "Who would’ve thought Chen Shiqing would make such a grand gesture of offering one hundred million? How could Qiao Mo possibly co up with that much money?"
"Exactly, the Qiao family has long been bankrupt; where would she get that kind of money to splurge?"
"However, I heard the two seem to have a grudge because of Mr. Fu, after all, Chen Shiqing appears to be Fu Nancheng’s fiancée."
"Well, regardless, in this round, Qiao Mo has lost."
...
Ignoring the voices around her, Qiao Mo calmly said to Chen Shiqing, "I advise Miss Chen to think twice. After all, the cost of this dress is at most a few million. Miss Chen, do you not feel it’s not worth spending one hundred million on a dress?"
Chen Shiqing’s smile widened.
Finally couldn’t hold on anymore?
Hmph!
"This dress is exquisitely made, the embroidery at the neckline is hand-stitched, the whole dress is understated and elegant. Surely this designer will have a promising future, and who knows if it will appreciate in value later?"
