Chapter 174 Song Yi's Provocation
Yu Zishu, not to be outdone, raised a sign and shouted.
"Four and a half million."
Song Qianyi narrowed her eyes slightly. Since Yu Zishu wouldn't let her go, then she wouldn't be polite.
Song Qianyi raised her paddle again, "Five million."
Yu Zishu's face turned extremely ugly; she hadn't expected Song Qianyi to be so persistent.
Duan Weiwei tried to dissuade her, saying, "Purple Book, this price is a bit high."
But Yu Zishu was blinded by anger and shouted loudly.
"Six million!"
The entire auction hall erupted in uproar, everyone shocked by Yu Zishu's insane bidding.
A bottle worth a maximum of three million doubled in value.
Seeing that Yu Zishu followed without hesitation, Song Qianyi smiled slightly and raised the sign again.
"Seven million."
When Yu Zishu heard Song Qianyi announce "seven million," she glared fiercely at Li Qingyang.
Li Qingyang was confused; what did Song Qianyi's price have to do with him?
This young lady really isn't very bright.
Then Yu Zishu gritted her teeth and said, "Eight! Millions!"
Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Song Qianyi decisively stopped.
Then she pretended to frown, showing a conflicted and hesitant expression.
Her hand rested lightly on the license plate, as if she were making a difficult decision.
After a moment, she slowly put down the number plate in her hand and sighed helplessly.
It seemed they had to give up because they were unable to raise the price any further.
When Yu Zishu saw Song Qianyi give up, a surge of triumphant joy welled up in her heart. She thought she had finally succeeded in suppressing Song Qianyi.
"Hmph, you're still too green to mess with me!"
Yu Zishu thought smugly, completely ignoring the fact that the price had far exceeded the value of the antique vase itself.
Seeing this, the auctioneer began to count down loudly.
"Three, two, one, sold! Congratulations to this lady for winning this Qing Dynasty imperial kiln antique vase for eight million!"
Yu Zishu stood up excitedly, waved to the crowd below the stage, and accepted the amazed looks of the crowd.
Some people were whispering among themselves.
"This Miss Yu is really rich and powerful; she's willing to spend a fortune on this vase."
"Yes, but the price is outrageous. Although the vase is exquisite, eight million is indeed a bit too high."
Yu Zishu was immersed in the joy of victory and ignored these discussions.
She sat back down, not forgetting to give Song Qianyi a provocative look.
Song Qianyi remained calm. She picked up her teacup, took a small sip, and showed no concern for Yu Zishu's provocation.
Duan Weiwei helplessly tugged at the corner of her mouth and softly reminded him.
"Zishu, why are you doing this to yourself? You've wasted so much money just to spite her."
Yu Zishu snorted dismissively in response.
“Weiwei, you’re too hesitant. Today I’m going to show Song Qianyi that she can’t compare to me in any way. If I want something, she can’t have it.”
"Especially Brother Ji Qing!"
When Yu Zishu mentioned Brother Ji Qing, a strange light flashed in her eyes, a look that was a mixture of possessiveness and jealousy.
In her heart, Yang Jiqing was the future partner she had chosen, and she would never allow Song Qianyi to have any chance of getting involved with him.
She was determined to make Yang Jiqing see Song Qianyi's "true colors".
Duan Weiwei sighed again when she heard Yu Zishu mention Yang Jiqing.
Her best friend is great in every way, except she's too love-struck. Whenever she's involved with Yang Jiqing, her intelligence plummets.
Meanwhile, Song Qianyi watched Yu Zishu's performance from the side without making a sound.
At this moment, Li Qingyang spoke up, "Miss Song, this provocation tactic is quite effective. It made her lose her composure without lifting a finger."
He added with a hint of appreciation in his smile.
Song Qianyi smiled slightly and responded softly.
"Yu Zishu was so eager to compete with me that she was easily swayed by her emotions and thus fell into my trap."
Li Qingyang nodded.
Song Qianyi smiled calmly and turned her gaze back to the auction stage.
For the next few items, whenever Song Qianyi raised her paddle, Yu Zishu would follow suit.
With each round of bidding, the price skyrocketed.
Yu Zishu blindly followed suit, having long since forgotten about the budget.
Soon, Yu Zishu's purchases exceeded 50 million.
If Yu Zishu wants to continue the auction, she will need to pay for the previously purchased items or provide proof of assets.
When Yu Zishu heard the staff member's polite yet unquestionable request, she froze instantly.
How could she have spent so much money?!
Should I ask Dad? But Dad said it would cost at most 20 million.
What... what are we going to do?!
