Chapter 178 Song Yi Pays
"Two hundred and fifty million!"
Song Qianyi held up a sign.
The atmosphere in the auction hall was as tense as a bowstring about to snap.
Everyone was stunned by Song Qianyi's sudden display of boldness.
For a moment, the entire venue fell into a deathly silence, and no one dared to immediately raise their paddle to increase the price.
The wealthy Arab businessman who had been bidding frowned, his eyes filled with resentment, but after a moment's thought, he slowly put down his bidding paddle.
He came here determined to succeed, and had prepared for it for a long time, making detailed budget plans.
However, Song Qianyi's sudden increase of 55 million completely disrupted his plans.
If the price continues to increase, it will exceed the budget I set in advance.
If we don't stop now, there might be risks.
So he wisely chose to give up.
The descendants of European nobility, however, were completely devoid of their usual elegance and composure, their eyes filled with anger.
He never expected that Song Qianyi would so aggressively add 55 million at once; this was completely unexpected.
His lips unconsciously pressed into a straight line as he hesitated for a long time.
After all, this person offered 55 million at once, which shows his considerable financial strength.
Ultimately, after a painful internal struggle, he gritted his teeth and didn't bid again.
Yue Zimu, from the reclusive family, maintained her composure and calmness.
His deep gaze was fixed quietly on Song Qianyi.
Seeing that she had looked at it, he nodded slightly, a gesture that seemed to convey a sense of appreciation and goodwill.
He then calmly put down the sign in his hand.
His composure only inspires awe.
Finally, after three passionate bids from the auctioneer, Song Qianyi successfully won the "Colorful Star" for a high price of 250 million.
The moment the gavel fell, the entire room erupted in enthusiastic applause and gasps of amazement.
The sound was like a surging tide, wave after wave, seemingly about to engulf the entire venue.
Song Qianyi stood up, her posture elegant and composed. Her slender fingers gently adjusted the hem of her skirt, the exquisite embroidery on it shimmering with a captivating light under the lamplight.
A faint smile graced her face, radiating confidence and composure.
After all, the final payment stage has not yet been reached, and everything is still subject to change.
Some people are not optimistic about Song Qianyi.
They believed that Song Qianyi was just putting on a brave face and pretending to be calm, and they were eagerly waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
Yu Zishu, who returned to her private room from the ID counter, also had the same thought.
Yu Zishu did not get the answer she wanted at the identity verification office.
The staff there declined Yu Zishu's request, citing privacy concerns.
After all, as a young lady of the Yu family, she still had to save face, so she couldn't make a scene there.
Moreover, even mentioning her status as Miss Yu failed to change the staff's mind.
Finally, after much persuasion from Duan Weiwei, Yu Zishu could only return to the private room filled with resentment.
The anger in his heart burned like a raging fire, growing ever stronger.
Next comes the highly anticipated payment process.
Of course, you can also choose to make payments privately.
However, Song Qianyi intended to demonstrate her strength, and she resolutely chose to pay at the auction.
When Song Qianyi indicated that she would pay at the auction, the entire venue fell silent instantly.
All eyes were fixed on her, filled with curiosity, doubt, and anticipation.
The well-trained staff quickly pushed the mobile payment device to the front of the private room.
Song Qianyi calmly took out a specially made card from her exquisite handbag.
It's a system-wide unlimited card.
The card surface shimmered with a low-key yet luxurious luster.
"Beep, payment successful!"
As the crisp notification sound rang out, Song Qianyi's lips curled up slightly, and a hint of smugness flashed in her eyes.
She gently took out the card and put it back in her handbag, her movements elegant and skillful.
In her view, this was just a trivial matter.
She raised her head, her gaze slowly sweeping across the entire room, her eyes carrying an innate confidence and nobility.
She turned her head slightly and spoke softly to the waiter beside her.
"Alright, I'll leave the handover to you now."
The waiter immediately nodded respectfully.
He needs to be very careful in supporting this master.
Li Qingyang looked at Song Qianyi, secretly amazed. He stepped forward with a smile of admiration on his face.
"Miss Song, today has truly broadened my horizons. To handle such a huge sum of money with such composure is truly admirable."
Song Qianyi responded politely, "Young Master Li, you flatter me. It's just the confidence that my family has given me."
Yu Zishu sat blankly in the private room, her eyes vacant, muttering to herself.
"How could that be? How could she possibly afford it..."
Her heart was filled with mixed emotions, and jealousy gnawed at her heart like a venomous snake.
I originally thought I would see Song Qianyi make a fool of herself, but I never expected to witness her glorious moment.
Under this tremendous stimulation, Yu Zishu's previously muddled romantic mind suddenly cleared up.
That's really amazing!
[Ding! "Exceptional Medical Skills" achievement achieved! Reward: 500 million.]
Song Qianyi looked completely bewildered upon hearing the announcement.
What?
[Cure my love-struck brain!]
After learning the whole story, Song Qianyi couldn't help but twitch her lips.
The world is so big, there are truly all sorts of wonders!
However, the system remains as abstract as ever.
At this moment, Yu Zishu felt a cool sensation in her mind.
It was as if a gentle breeze had swept by, dispelling the confusion and chaos of the past.
A wave of fear followed; she had treated Song Qianyi so badly, she feared she would face retaliation.
Yu Zishu's father also arrived at the auction and witnessed this scene.
He arrived at Yu Zishu's private room with a furrowed brow.
Seeing Yu Zishu sitting blankly in the private room, he felt a pang of heartache and quickly walked over to her.
Yu Zishu then came to her senses, her eyes reddening, and said with a wronged expression.
"Dad, I didn't expect her to actually win the bid for that diamond and even pay for it smoothly."
She's afraid of retaliation now, what should she do?
Mr. Yu sighed, "This Song Qianyi seems to have a powerful backer. You should avoid provoking her in the future. Leave the rest to your father."
Yu's father was also very worried about Yu Zishu.
He sat down next to Yu Zishu and gently patted her shoulder to soothe her.
