Xia Chenxing was stunned for a moment. Why did this voice sound so familiar? This time, the gazes of the crowd changed again. Everyone was shocked again. The man who called the price was cold and handsome. There was an aura of superiority around him that no man present could compare to.
Xia Chenxing saw the man's face and was stunned. Du Yangyang saw her reaction and quickly asked, "Hey, Chenxing, are you infatuated with a handsome man? This man is indeed not bad. Do you want to try wooing him?"
Xia Chenxing came back to her senses. Chase him? Unless she was tired of living! She didn't want to get involved with that living hell. She quickly looked away, afraid that he would notice her.
The auctioneer did not expect the Heart of the Forest to have a bid of 110 million. He seemed to be afraid that the other party would regret it and quickly shouted, "110 million going once, 110 million going twice, 110 million going thrice! Congratulations to this gentleman for winning the Heart of the Forest!"
110 million was already beyond Yin Yisen's tolerance. He had braced himself to shout out 110 million. There was no way he could raise the price again. Furthermore, Xia Chenxing had his own ideal price. Although the Heart of the Forest was rare, there was really no point in raising it further.
The auction only officially came to an end at this moment. The bidding war of the Heart of the Forest had become the most exciting part of the entire auction. Even when the guests were heading to the banquet hall, they were still discussing the scene enthusiastically. This was because no one expected that the most daring and powerful bidders would all appear in the back row tonight. This charity banquet was really full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons.
Xia Chenxing strolled around the banquet hall with a glass of champagne in her hand. Du Yangyang had already mingled with the big shots and socialites. This was her occupational disease. It was the best time to gather news materials.
"Xia Chenxing, are you proud now?" Suddenly, a female voice came from behind Xia Chenxing. She stopped in her tracks and slowly turned around. "Miss Xia didn't receive the Heart of the Forest as a gift. Are you looking for me to settle the score now?"
Yin Yisen was embarrassed, and so was Xia Zhixi, his fiancée. Xia Zhixi said maliciously, "Xia Chenxing, no matter how much you attract Brother Yisen's attention, he still won't love you. He will only hate you even more. Give up!"
Xia Chenxing said speechlessly, "Today, I finally understand why the two of you can be together. Your brains are all the same. You two are really a match made in heaven! I just don't understand how you can think that I still have feelings for that disgusting scumbag Yin Yisen who cheated on me? What the hell? Let me tell you, I have a husband. My husband is taller, more handsome, and richer than Yin Yisen. He's better than him in everything. I don't care for scum like Yin Yisen. I can only blame myself for being young and ignorant back then for agreeing to date him. This is a stain in my life."
Li Ruixu, who had been observing Xia Chenxing, smiled and muttered to himself, "What a liar."
Xiao Qi also heard Xia Chenxing's words and asked curiously, "Boss, could it be that Sister-in-law already knows your identity? But the last time the Li family saw you was more than ten years ago. It's impossible for her to know!"
Li Ruixu didn't answer Xiao Qi's question at all and continued, "Grandmother said she was smart. I think she's just being smart and full of tricks."
Xiao Qi chuckled and replied, "Hehe, that's right. Sister-in-law does have a lot of ideas. Her figure is also good…"
Suddenly, Li Ruixu raised his head and finished the wine in his glass. With a gloomy face, he said, "If you continue to look, I'll dig out your eyes and feed them to the fish!"
Xiao Qi reacted immediately and quickly lowered his head in silence. Their boss was jealous…
Xia Zhixi was still arguing with Xia Chenxing tirelessly. "So what if your husband is good? Where is he now? We don't even know if he's dead or alive, right? No matter what you say about him, aren't you still a widow here? You might as well find a random man on the street to fill your emptiness. You're hiding your miserable life by saying so much. You're really too pitiful."
"Are you done?" Xia Chenxing said impatiently, "Xia Zhixi, I advise you to go back to primary school and learn Chinese. Why is it that every time you speak, it's like you're memorizing textbooks? There's no novelty at all. You haven't finished speaking but I'm almost done. You should study hard and change your speech before coming over to spar with me." After saying that, she said angrily, "Move aside. A good dog doesn't block the way!"
