The atmosphere at the auction was extraordinarily enthusiastic, with everyone actively bidding, turning what was initially a rather bland charity auction into an event full of vigor.
The diamond that Meng Xiaofei had put up for auction sold for a lot of money, eventually going for one million four hundred thousand. This price was neither too high nor too low, yet it was enough to capture all the limelight that evening. Most importantly, although the diamond had been cut, no one had made it into a piece of jewelry yet, meaning it hadn't been used by anyone. This detail was particularly appealing to some wealthy folks who held superstitious beliefs—if a diamond had been worn, they feared it would carry the previous owner's bad luck.
