HSBC’s auction items are not ordinary items. Some of them are mortgaged to the bank and are not allowed to do charity. Some of them are sent to the auction items in advance.

Lin Xiaotian saw that the jewelry price was not high and was only 600,000 yuan, but it might not be much after auction. He nodded to He Chaoqiong, which means you don’t worry, I will definitely take it.

At this time, the lights around were a little dim, and a spotlight hit the stage and shone on a person, who was Chen Zhuo, the chairman of HSBC Bank.

Chen Zhu held the microphone and said, "Hello, everyone, welcome to participate in today's charity auction. I hope all good-fathers can donate generously and contribute to the charity cause. Let us invite our chief auctioneer Yan Gang to the stage."

Chen Zhuo was giving a speech on the stage. The atmosphere was very good. Chen Zhuo quickly went down. There was a person who came up, Yan Gang, the chief auctioneer of Jiadeli Auction House, and the auction officially began.

The lighting returned to normal, Yan Gang said, "I'm invited the first item." Two staff members immediately went on stage to open a calligraphy scroll. Auctionist Yan Gang introduced it next to him, "This is the small Tao Te Ching written by Mr. Zhao Mengfu. It can be said to be a rare masterpiece passed down from generation to generation. The starting price is 1 million Hong Kong dollars, and the price is 100,000 Hong Kong dollars each time."

Has anyone bid? This gentleman offered 1.1 million to play...

The gentleman at Table 8 offered 150 yuan

Oh, this gentleman offered another 1.6 million, 1.6 million. It is hard to see the original works of Mr. Zhao Mengfu.

The 2nd table, the 2nd table has offered 1.8 million, 1.8 million.

Lin Xiaotian looked at this item and wanted it a little. Tao Te Ching is rare, especially the original version of the Yuan Dynasty. He raised his hand and stretched out two fingers, which meant 2 million.

I heard the host Gao Sheng on the stage say that the gentleman at Table 6 offered 2 million, 2 million.

"The first time of 2 million, the second time of 2 million, the third time of 2 million, the transaction is completed. Congratulations to the gentleman at Table 6 for capturing this treasure of Tao Te Ching," Yan Gang announced loudly.

He Chaoqiong saw that Lin Xiaotian bought the first item and asked curiously: "Do you believe in Taoism? Why do you think of buying books?" Lin Xiaotian whispered and explained in a low voice: "Sister, brother, how can I marry you if I don't learn a lot?"

He Chaoqiong gave Lin Xiaotian a look, saying that you mean you are lying to the point, but it is different in the eyes of others. It is a little couple whispering in the ears.

He Chaoqiong's father, gambling king, was doing it at the No. 1 table. Looking at his daughter and this little Nian, he felt a little sad. He thought to himself, what's going on? Ah Qiong usually doesn't like these wealthy families at all. What's going on today? Did he really like this kid? He felt suspicious.

Others at the same table also saw the situation at Table 6 and were wondering who the young man next to the gambling king's daughter is. It seems that he gets along well with this daughter. Could it be that the gambling king's future son-in-law?

Xu Shixun and He Hongye have been old friends for many years. They joked about He Hongye and said, "It seems that Ah Qiong is quite satisfied with this young master Lin. Lao He, I'm waiting to drink your wedding banquet."

Lin Baixin also looked at Table No. 6 with a suspicion. He knew that Lin Xiaotian and He Chaoqiong had just met each other. Why did they act so intimately? They had to look back and examine the kid carefully.

He also smiled when he heard Xu Shixun joking about He Hongye. He was still very confident in his daughter. He believed that his daughter would not fall easily. When this gambling king was young, he was very romantic. Judging from his current appearance, he looked calm on his face and could not tell anything.

The atmosphere on the stage was very warm next. The items auctioned were basically all high-quality. It was soon the turn of this set of jewelry. The auctioneer was vigorously promoting it on the stage. This set of jewelry was provided by HSBC and used by customers to pay off the debt. However, after the transaction period, HSBC took it out and auctioned it.

Auctionist Yan Gang introduced that this set of jewelry is called [Guardian of the Night]. The whole set of jewelry is made of thirty-six black pearls of the same size. Black pearls of the same size are very rare. There is a model specially invited to wear the jewelry. With the light, the pearls also emit a charming halo, which gives people the feeling of being amazing. The starting price is 600,000 yuan, and the price is 50,000 Hong Kong dollars each time.

After hearing this, Lin Xiaotian said to He Chaoqiong, "This name is good [Guardian of the Night]. Can I let this set of jewelry accompany you when I am no longer by your side?"

He Chaoqiong listened to Lin Xiaotian's mouth and said something, looking at him, without saying anything else. The bidding was endless, and the price soon reached 3 million, almost approaching the actual price of this set of jewelry.

Lin Xiaotian raised his hand and compared one 3 to five, which means 3.5 million

Seeing Lin Xiaotian's gesture, the auctioneer Gao Sheng shouted. The gentleman at Table 6 offered 3.5 million or 3.5 million. Is there anyone bidding? If not, this set of jewelry would belong to the gentleman at Table 6.

Someone raised his hand and called 3.6 million.

The gentleman at Table No. 9 bid 3.6 million, is there any higher 3.6 million...

Lin Xiaotian looked at the table No. 9 and raised his hand to signal 4 million.

The gentleman at Table 6, Table 6, offered 4 million. Is there anyone who bid? It's 4 million.

Lin Xiaotian spent 4 million to take down the jewelry, turned to He Chaoqiong and said, "I finally said that I did it. I have not been a person who failed the contract. I wonder if my sister is satisfied." After that, he looked at He Chaoqiong with a sincere look.

He Chaoqiong didn't expect the bid to be so high. He was a little hesitant and didn't want to accept it. Seeing He Chaoqiong's hesitation, Lin Xiaotian said first: "I'm talking about flowers today, you don't blame me. I'm grateful. You can keep the jewelry safe. This is my little wish. I hope it will satisfy you and forgive me what I do today." His tone was very sincere, with an apology.

He Chaoqiong looked at Lin Xiaotian and felt very contradictory. He accepted it or not, and was swaying from side to side. After all, it was a bit inappropriate for the two of them to accept such expensive jewelry just now.

Lin Xiaotian didn't raise his hand at the back. When it was almost over, the waiter walked over with two boxes and whispered: "Shao Lin, the lot is delivered to you, totaling 6 million." Looking at the two boxes brought by the service staff, Lin Xiaotian took out the check book and wrote down the check, leaving two lots behind.

He Chaoqiong looked at the jewelry handed over by Lin Xiaotian and said, "Lin Sheng, I can't accept this jewelry. It's too expensive. You can't care, but I can't ignore it. Do you understand?"

Looking at He Chaoqiong's appearance, Lin Xiaotian knew that he was in a hurry and said, "I understand that I will keep this set of jewelry and give it to you again at the right opportunity, and you will not refuse me. I believe there will be this day."

He Chaoqiong didn't say anything. After greeting the person who was sitting, he got up and left, but he didn't say hello to Lin Xiaotian. After He Chaoqiong left, people looked at him at the table. Zhao Zhe raised his hand and patted Lin Xiaotian on the shoulder. He didn't say anything about him. He picked up the wine glass and signaled Lin Xiaotian to come and take a sip.

Lin Xiaotian shrugged, picked up the wine glass and touched Zhao Zhe, drank the wine in the wine glass in one sip. Looking at He Chaoqiong's departure, Lin Xiaotian's heart was also complicated.

He Chaoqiong got up and left the table and walked towards the No. 1 table. He came to sit next to his father He Hongye. Looking at the spirit revealed in his daughter's eyes, He Hongye was very pleased that his daughter had returned to normal. He was very pleased with his daughter. He was smart since childhood and had a good job. He was a successor whom he was more optimistic about. He just wondered why his daughter would be so close to a boy he had just met.
