Chapter 623: Chapter 646 This slap is really loud

The auctioneer continued, "Not only is this diamond valuable, but it also has a story. Just now, two ladies requested many people to bear witness that one of them would donate an amount that is twice the value of what the other lady donates, and this diamond that’s being auctioned is from one of the ladies."

When Cui Jiali had earlier indicated she wanted witnesses, so people had already taken notice of her and ng Xiaofei. Upon hearing the auctioneer’s words, everyone looked around, and Cui Jiali looked especially proud, scanning the room with a triumphant air as if afraid no one would recognize her.

Pointing towards Cui Jiali, the auctioneer said, "The original owner of the item we are auctioning is right over there."

With a radiant smile and raised hands, Cui Jiali waved gently to the people around her. She struck a pose of elegance and humility, accustod to attending large events, she wasn’t intimidated. Even under the gaze of the crowd, she felt more triumphant, but she cleverly concealed her pride, which made her seem all the more sophisticated and layered.

Sure enough, all eyes turned to her. For most people here, a diamond was nothing extraordinary, but the auctioneer had made it sound very special. The chance to get to know soone who could donate such a diamond at a charity auction was not to be missed.

"Hello, everyone, my husband and I have always been committed to philanthropy. So, this ti, I am donating these diamond earrings. My husband had them custom-made for

in South Africa. I love them, but for the sake of charity, I am willing to sacrifice them, however much I like them, to help those poor children. I hope everyone here will extend a generous hand to assist these unfortunate kids," she said.

Although her speech was quite hypocritical and transparent to all, they gave her a symbolic round of applause for being willing to donate sothing so valuable.

This made Cui Jiali even more proud. Tonight, she relished the attention she was receiving, particularly in a place filled with the wealthy, and she felt a sense of achievent.

The auctioneer then added, "We truly admire this lady’s gesture and her dedication to doing good deeds. After another lady donated a diamond of eleven carats, she insisted on donating twice as much. Now let’s auction off this eleven-carat diamond."

"An eleven-carat diamond!" A woman exclaid in surprise imdiately.

The auctioneer lifted the diamond and declared, "It’s true, in addition to our charity auction, there’s another major auction happening, so we have a senior appraiser on hand to verify. This diamond is absolutely genuine and of the highest quality, with an appraisal certificate to prove it." A professional appraisal certificate instantly appeared on the screen behind him.

"Honey, I want that diamond!"

"Darling, win that diamond for !"

Many won beca excited and began shouting. They had diamonds of their own, but an eleven-carat diamond was highly coveted. Won naturally can’t resist diamonds.

"What? A real diamond?" Cui Jiali’s smile instantly petrified, and her body stiffened before she burst out loudly, "Impossible, there must be so mistake. It has to be fake. How could she have such a large real diamond?"

If Cui Jiali hadn’t shouted so loud, the crowd’s attention would have been entirely captivated by the diamond, and she would have been ignored. But her outburst turned all eyes on her.

Smiling, the auctioneer replied, "Madam, this diamond is definitely authentic. You can have it appraised anywhere, and we will take responsibility if there’s an issue. I also want to thank you for your generosity; this diamond is worth at least a million, and for you to donate sothing worth over two million is truly magnanimous. How dedicated to charity you must be."

"Two... two million..." Cui Jiali stamred, her face alternating between pale and flushed. Before Shen Mingguang had arrived, they had agreed to donate the earrings with twenty thousand being their decided maximum. Now it had increased tenfold.

Shen Mingguang also inwardly groaned. Although his wife was a good luck charm for his finances, her mouth and temperant could be exasperating. Why did she have to show off unnecessarily? Now they’d been outsmarted and shad, but to keep face and donate two million was too painful.

Awkwardly smiling, Shen Mingguang stood and said, "My wife spoke out of turn and made a joke among friends that was taken seriously. However, just donating a pair of diamond earrings seems too little. My wife will also donate this diamond necklace. It may not compare to that diamond, but it’ll serve as the icing on the cake."

He pulled Cui Jiali to sit down, knowing it would be more embarrassing to remain standing. Regaining her composure, Cui Jiali sat down quickly, her face uglier than a liver. She glanced at ng Xiaofei from afar, unable to understand how ng Xiaofei had so much money to donate such a large diamond so casually. Could it be that ng Xiaofei had found an incredibly wealthy tycoon?

"Exactly, that must be it. She’s definitely taken up with a rich man, beca soone’s mistress," Cui Jiali thought, sowhat comforting herself. But she didn’t dare provoke ng Xiaofei again, knowing the wisest move was to stay silent.

ng Xiaofei too was utterly dumbfounded, and only after Chu Xiaoyao nudged her several tis did she snap out of it.

"Sister Xiaofei, you’re way too generous. Such a huge diamond, and you just donated it," Chu Xiaoyao said, her eyes green with envy. Even though she was used to not caring about money, especially after teaming up with Li Yifei, she was still envious of that big diamond and pouted, "If you didn’t want it, you could have given it to ."

ng Xiaofei clenched her fists tightly and ground her teeth as she said, "Xiaoyao, how could I have known that the diamond was real? If I had known it was real, I wouldn’t have donated it. Eleven carats, oh my God, I only ever dread of having a two-carat diamond, and now, for such a long ti, an eleven-carat diamond belonged to

and I didn’t cherish it, wuu wuu... Xiaoyao, just kill ." With those words, she hugged Chu Xiaoyao and repeatedly bumped her head against Chu Xiaoyao’s shoulder.

ng Xiaofei’s actions astonished Michelle and Xu Shanshan, while Li Yifei and Su ngxin could not help but smile. ng Xiaofei was truly genuine, not pretending at all. Her regret was undisguised and absolute.

Xu Shanshan leaned in and whispered, "Xiaofei, you didn’t know that diamond was real?"

ng Xiaofei let go of Chu Xiaoyao and said with a pained expression, "I had no idea, Brother Li said it was fake, so I always thought it was fake. Brother Li, why did you lie to ?"

Li Yifei laughed and said, "One shouldn’t show off their wealth, right? You’re so careless, if I’d told you the diamond was real, you would have definitely worn it on you, and the consequences would be either losing it or having others see it and steal it, or it could even bring you harm, so I didn’t tell you."

ng Xiaofei pouted and said, "Even if I didn’t want it, you should have let

admire it for a couple of days at least. Eleven carats, oh my God, and now it’s gone just like that."

Xu Shanshan then looked at Li Yifei and said, "Brother-in-law, Xiaofei ntioned before that this diamond was given to her by your comrade-in-arms?"

Li Yifei nodded and replied, "Yes, it was given by Mingrui."

Xu Shanshan glared fiercely at Li Yifei and said, "Why would your comrade give Xiaofei such a nice thing? Why didn’t he give it to my sister?"

Li Yifei laughed awkwardly and said, "I was away on business back then, and when they ca over, they mistook Xiaofei for your sister, so they gave all the items to Xiaofei."

At this mont, ng Xiaofei suddenly glared at Li Yifei and exclaid, "Brother Li, if this diamond is real, then... then... then..." ng Xiaofei was so excited that her lips began to tremble, and she was unable to finish her sentence.

Li Yifei nodded with a smile and added, "They’re all valuable items."

"Oh my God!" ng Xiaofei exclaid, clapping a hand to her forehead, and then quickly said with delight, "Luckily, luckily, there are still three items that I didn’t bring with . If I had donated them all, that would have been a huge loss."

Chu Xiaoyao imdiately asked, "What do you an there are three more items?"

ng Xiaofei finally said with a smug smile, "I still have a black bead, a green stone, and a red stone."

Chu Xiaoyao imdiately inquired, "The green stone, could it be jade?"

ng Xiaofei giggled and said, "It should be sothing similar."

Xu Shanshan chid in, "The red stone, is that a ruby?"

ng Xiaofei proudly gestured with her hand and said, "It shouldn’t be, it’s quite big."

Michelle quickly said, "I know, it must be red coral."

ng Xiaofei looked at Li Yifei and asked with a grin, "Brother Li, that’s right, isn’t it?"

Li Yifei laughed and responded, "Hmm."

"And what about the black bead?" Chu Xiaoyao asked curiously.

Both Michelle and Xu Shanshan were at a loss, so Su ngxin stepped in and said, "That must be a black pearl. Pearls might not be as valuable as jade and such, but a black pearl is very rare. They are definitely not less valuable than jade or diamonds, and because they’re so rare, they’re probably worth even more."
