Shen Jiaming's bid was not because he wanted the auctioned item; his mere increase of one thousand yuan was not to disgust Xu Ruolan, but to seize the opportunity to draw her attention.
However, his actions provoked the displeasure of many people, because in their eyes, Shen Jiaming's behavior was hardly different from being obnoxious.
Yet Shen Jiaming was oblivious and continued to eye Xu Ruolan, ready to snatch away the item she liked once more.
After another jade bracelet and almost ten minutes bidding on the next item, the auction house presented a blue and white porcelain piece with a starting price of five hundred thousand.
When the price reached six hundred thousand, Xu Ruolan raised her paddle once again.
"Miss Xu bids six hundred and fifty thousand, does anyone wish to follow?"
"Six hundred and fifty thousand and one thousand yuan!"
It was Shen Jiaming again, and the crowd frowned at him.
"The owner of Changsheng Group bids seven hundred thousand!"
