Chapter 511: Madam Group has a powerful presence at 310!
Xu He had only just realized that the person bidding against them was none other than Dong Mao, who worked closely with President Jiang.
It’s no wonder she had found him familiar just now.
The other madams around her hadn’t caught on yet.
After all, not everyone was fortunate enough to et Jiang Xuan’s trusted confidants.
Madam Gu: “Who is that gentleman representing? He seems sowhat unfamiliar. Two hundred and twenty million already—quite strong in terms of financial power…”
“It’s over, we can only bid up to two hundred and thirty million. Looking at how at ease he is, adding more wouldn’t be a problem for him.”
“Madam Xia, what should we do now?”
Xu He pursed her lips, feeling there wasn’t much hope, but she still wanted to try her best, “Let’s keep bidding for now.”
The auctioneer excitedly addressed the Madam Group, “Two hundred and twenty million once! Two hundred and twenty million twice! Two hundred and twenty million…”
Just as others thought the Madam Group might lose, Xu He raised her paddle.
The auctioneer announced excitedly, “Two hundred and thirty million!”
Now, all eyes were on Dong Mao.
Following the montum just now, it seed certain that Mr. Dong would raise the bid.
However, Mr. Dong was waiting for a reply from his master; without a word from him, he didn’t dare to make a move hastily.
Jiang Xuan was currently sitting in the car on his way to the office. The Rolls-Royce’s starry sky ceiling enveloped him in an aura of opulence, but his brows were furrowed with worry.
He should have, like the little ancestor, hidden his belongings well every ti he left the human world, so he wouldn’t be in a situation like this—
Having to compete with his future mother-in-law over his own painting…
T·D=Heavenly Dao, was just a na he had casually picked at the ti.
If anyone could live for hundreds of years and had happened to travel across the world, they might discover a secret: every few decades, or every few centuries, two people would appear.
The man had an enduring charisma and the woman, a serene and stunning beauty.
Every ti they appeared, they took on different attire from different eras, disguised in various professions, yet their faces were strikingly similar.
The woman traveled far and wide, appearing wherever she pleased. The man didn’t seem to have any preferences; he was always found by the woman’s side.
That was in the previous century in Oceania. She attended a court ball, and he was fascinated by her, so he painted that picture.
So for him, that painting held significant sentintal value.
Furthermore, he had a “little ancestor collecting habit”; he didn’t want to miss out on anything related to the little ancestor.
But this ti…
This lifeti in the human world, he couldn’t co and go as freely as before. Xia Ye was the daughter of the Xia Family, and she seed to quite like her new identity.
If he offended his future mother-in-law…
Jiang Xuan asked in a low voice, “Did she recognize it was you?”
Dong Mao, with a laugh that was more like a cry, “She, she recognized .”
How could he have known that Madam Xia would also be here today?
If he had known, he would have disguised himself.
Jiang Xuan’s headache worsened as he listened to the auctioneer’s voice from the other end: “Two hundred and thirty million once! Two hundred and thirty million twice! Two hundred and thirty million…”
“…three tis!”
The hamr with a delicate design ca down, and Jiang Xuan ultimately decided to compromise.
Forget it, he could just buy it back from the descendants of the Xia Family in a few hundred years.
Xia Family…descendants?
As thoughts flooded his mind, his eyes deepened and the brows that had been tightly locked relaxed slightly.
If they could be together successfully, Xia Ye…having a fluffy little fox…
Then the descendants of the Xia Family would also be his descendants, wouldn’t they?
Leaving his own painting for his own descendants…
One family…undivided…
Jiang Xuan addressed the phone indifferently, “Explain to Mrs. Xia later that you weren’t intentionally bidding against her…” After finishing, he particularly emphasized, “Be sincere in your manner, and sweeten your words a bit.”
Dong Mao was stunned for a mont, “Ah, okay…”
As the auctioneer confird the final bid, the continuously changing bidding prices and bidder numbers on the big screen finally ca to a standstill.
“Congratulations to bidder number 8820, Mrs. Xia, who has won the auction item for two hundred and thirty million!”
While everyone on the scene envied the Madam Group for winning the item, they also found it strange that Mr. Dong who had been consistently raising the bids, abruptly stopped at the last mont.
Especially since so recognized Dong Mao and knew whose confidant he was, they were even more puzzled.
How could an item eyed by Mr. Jiang be stopped at such a price?
Not only could they not understand, even the Madam Group themselves felt that this happiness ca a bit too suddenly.
If there had been just one more bid, they would have missed out on a relic of their idol.
“Who exactly is that Mr. Dong from? Just now, it seed like he was determined to compete with us. Why did he change his mind after one phone call?”
