Chapter Three Hundred and Sixty-Eight
The auction site at the Sihai Grand Hotel was a converted banquet hall, temporarily adapted to accommodate a thousand people. Yet even so, it was packed to the brim.
Many couldn't get in at all.
Even tickets to the auction had been scalped for as much as one hundred thousand a piece.
After all, a Two-hundred-year-old Snow Lotus was not something one saw every day.
Moreover, the auction maintained an air of mystery; promos hinted at a surprise at the event.
No one knew what the surprise might be.
But, with the Century-Old Snow Lotus as a precursor, the promise of a surprise from the organizers had everyone quite excited.
Amidst the anticipation of the crowd, a beauty in a sapphire blue cheongsam emerged, embodying the delicate grace and gentle beauty of a Jiangnan lady, as if intoxicating everyone with the misty rain of Jiangnan.
Seeing this beauty, everyone knew that Bai Susu was personally presiding over the auction.
