Auction (1)

At night when Chu Xuan came back from work, Evelyn approached him and gave him a red envelope, "Young master, this invitation card was delivered in the morning."

"hmm" Chu Xuan just nodded and took the card and pretended to check it out as he already knew what was the card for. The invitation card was for an annual auction that was going to be held three days later. It was the biggest auction held in the state and many VVIPs from all the state would be attending this auction. This auction was hosted by the 'The Silver Vivix' which was a very famous auction house all over the country.

The Silver Vivix was well known all over the country because of the items auctioned by them. The auction items consisted of many priceless jades, art collections and ancient artifacts to be sold that were brought from all over the world.

All of this was single handedly handled by a single family, the Hua family. The Hua family was a very rich and powerful family.

The Hua family was not from Yanjing but from Shenzen, the entertainment capital of the country. Moreover they were an Ancient Martial Artist family.

[The auction plot will be starting soon and this young master also has a role to play.]

[Haha another brainless heroine is gonna appear.]

[Oohhhh Hua Qing Si how are you gonna react when you hear that the protagonist cheated you at your auction only? hahaha]

[Thinking of all the stupid things that you are gonna do I can't help myself, hahahah]

[Speaking of which, this protagonist has a great luck, that the auction's appraisers are gonna incorrectly appraise the value of blue and white porcelain vase.]

[The protagonist is gonna get it for cheap and its a real shame.]

[Ohh and that jade that was just excavated is a heaven and earth treasure not some ordinary mineral.]

Evelyn who was setting up the table for dinner just shook her head inwardly seeing the mocking smile Chu Xuan had. He liked to mock the heroines on how stupid their actions would be when they meet the protagonist but no plotline was revealed yet just some tidbits.

Far away in a warehouse, a lot of boxes were being loaded and unloaded. There in one of the office, a woman could be seen slouching on the main chair while a middle aged man was reading out some kind of list from his tablet to the woman, "The new jewelry collection crafted by Mr. Alexandar has arrived and will be placed for the upcoming auction. The Painti"

Suddenly the woman became alerted and sat straight with a brooding expression on her face as she signaled him to stop speaking further. The man was frightened by the sudden action of the woman as he thought, 'What happened to the young miss suddenly? Why is there a sudden change in the mood?'

The woman's voice was heard as the man came out of his thoughts, "Mr. Lan is there a blue and white porcelain up for sale for this weekends auction at Yanjing?"

"Yes, young miss we do have one, let me check for the details. Here, we recently received an vase from one our dealers and after appraisal from our staff it was inferred to be 100 years old with an market value of 100,000 syli."

"Hmm keep it aside for a moment and re appraise it once again more carefully. And was a new batch of jade just dug out?"

Mr. Lan was confused as to why the young miss asked for the vase to be reappraised and why was asking about the new shipment of jade but he still answered, "Yes, young miss a new shipment should be arriving in the morning."

"Call me when it arrives." The woman then left with complicated thoughts in her mind.

Soon, the day of auction arrived and Chu Xuan with Evelyn arrived at the venue of the auction. The venue was bustling with people who were waiting in line to enter. This was a famous auction so many wanted to attend and try their luck. Chu Xuan didn't encounter any problems while entering as he had a VVIP invitation card. So he immediately went towards the VVIP lounge and while going he met a rather familiar person.

There was Lin Hao also there who was walking towards the VIP lounge. As a villain Chu Xuan had to act and oppose the protagonist as soon as he sees him. So, he started his acting, "Look who is here. This is a place for the VIP, not for bottom feeder scum like you.". After saying this he ignored him and started moving while Evelyn was following him from behind like an obedient maid.

Lin Hao already knew Chu Xuan was gonna attend the auction as he had seen the list of VIPs. He had already contacted Evelyn and fully planned on how to take revenge on him for all the things. He controlled his anger as he nodded at Evelyn when she passed by him.

Lin Hao also arranged a VIP invitation card from Shen Wang as he had a feeling he will have a big harvest here. He also had an other motive that was to come in contact with the young lady of the auction house, who was said to be very beautiful. If he can get in contact with her family through her, he will have a smooth sailing forward for his upcoming plans.

There were many VIP booths there but coincidentally or not Chu Xuan's booth was 3A and adjacent to it the booth 3B was of Lin Hao. The booths were big and spacious, there interior were also very luxurious. There was table in front of the sofa where there were many kinds of fruits and snacks placed for the VIPs. They also had a personal attendant assigned to each and every one of them.

[Now time for you, Evelyn to do your job.]

[This young master has a lot of hopes on you.]
