Chapter 463: For good luck

Boss Yang said, secretly observing Shen Ci's reaction.

Seeing that she didn't have any extra expression, he continued: "His son is also very excellent. After graduation, he entered 'Ruiang' and negotiated a large cooperation of more than 100,000 in less than a year."

"Of course, the scale of new energy projects is not small, but what Uncle Yang wants to express is that this Uncle Fei, whether it is him or his son, is very outstanding. This point is very similar to you and your mother."

Shen Ci listened to Uncle Yang's words, and her gaze looked at her mother who was chatting with Uncle Fei not far away.

It happened that Uncle Fei seemed to have said something funny, and her mother covered her mouth and smiled especially brightly and brilliantly.

Shen Ci nodded gently: "Since that's the case, let's observe first. But I know my mother. She hasn't started a new relationship for so many years. I'm afraid she thinks more in her heart than we children think."

Seeing Shen Ci loosen up, Boss Yang breathed a sigh of relief for his good friend.

"How this kind of thing develops later depends on themselves." Boss Yang said happily: "Difficult to pursue has the benefits of being difficult to pursue. Chairman Fei is still very able to stand the test."

Shen Ci smiled without saying a word.

Men, who isn't carried away when they like someone? But she wouldn't comment on how long this impulse of feelings could last.

But she always felt that the essence of love is a consumable, and it is a non-renewable resource. Everyone's love is limited, and it's gone when it's used up. It's just that some people get more, and some people get less.

Li Li Wanchang was chatting and laughing with friends, but Mrs. Li couldn't help but observe the movement on Shen Ci's side.

Seeing Chairman Fei and Shen Shen Jingjing chatting alone and talking happily, she couldn't help but secretly poke her husband: "Husband, look, this Chairman Fei and Shen Ci's mother must have a situation."

Li Li Wanchang looked over, and his brows frowned instantly. He held his wife's hand calmly and warned in a low voice: "It has nothing to do with you, mind your own business."

"How can it have nothing to do with it? If they are really together, then Shen Ci..."

Before she finished speaking, she was glared at by Li Li Wanchang and closed her mouth.

The more it was this time, the greater Li Li Wanchang's resentment toward his wife. If it weren't for her insisting on intervening in her son's relationship and forcing the two to break up, the two sides wouldn't be as incompatible as they are today.

If Xiao Zai and Shen Ci hadn't broken up, then now...

It's a pity there's no if.

The banquet lasted for about an hour. When everyone had finished eating and chatting, the host walked onto the stage again. The strong lights on the stage lit up, forming a sharp contrast with the warm atmosphere lights in the hall.

"Distinguished guests, the event is about to enter the next key climax. I think old friends who have participated in the Jiangdong charity event are no strangers to this. Next, I will introduce the key session to new friends who have come to the event for the first time."

The event reached a climax, which is also the most important session for the foundation to raise funds—charity auction!

Listening to the host introduce the event process, Shen Ci said to her mother: "Mom, if there is anything you like later, just bid. Anyway, the money spent will be donated to the foundation, just treat it as doing a good deed, don'

Shen Shen Jingjing was attending this kind of charity auction for the first time, and she had no idea what items would appear next.

"Let's take a look; I don't know what good things there will be."

Su Su Zheyuan, sitting to the side, fiddled with the number plate in his hand and said with a smile, "Auntie, charity auctions mostly have small items with some significance. They are quite different from formal auctions; there aren't any antiques or things like that."

Shen Shen Jingjing nodded in understanding, just as she saw the first auction item being pushed onto the stage.

It was a piece of calligraphy, written with four characters: "Heaven Rewards Diligence." The writing was fluid and very free-spirited.

The host introduced, "Today's first auction item is a piece of calligraphy from the well-known veteran artist Mr. Lu Lu Qiang..."

As soon as the host opened his mouth to introduce it, Ji Ji Chuhe, sitting below, couldn't help but roll her eyes and muttered, "Old pervert!"

That's right, this piece of calligraphy was written by Mr. Lu Lu Qiang, who was in the same crew.

Although Lu Lu Qiang was not present today, his calligraphy and paintings were very common in the country, with market prices generally ranging from ten to several dozen yuan, and the highest one even sold for over a hundred yuan.

In the country, besides being known for his identity as an actor, he was also a very famous calligraphy master.

Kuan Jie noticed Ji Ji Chuhe's reaction and patted her hand lightly without changing her expression. She had long heard about Lu Lu Qiang's affairs, so she had already instructed Ji Ji Chuhe to take good care of Shen Li.

Ji Ji Chuhe said to Kuan Jie, "There are still people bidding high prices for the things of such scum; aren't they afraid of getting bad luck? It's filthy."

Kuan Jie shook her head slightly, signaling Ji Ji Chuhe to be cautious in her speech and actions.

Lu Lu Qiang was, after all, a capital tycoon in the entertainment industry. If these words were accidentally heard by someone with ulterior motives and reached Lu Lu Qiang's ears, Ji Ji Chuhe would likely be in big trouble.

Ji Ji Chuhe understood this in her heart, but she just couldn't help but complain.

While they were talking, the calligraphy was sold for a price of "78" yuan, and applause followed at the scene.

Immediately after, the second auction item was brought onto the stage. As the red silk covering it was lifted, what caught everyone's eyes were two imperial green bracelets with excellent clarity.

"Next is the second auction item, a top-grade imperial green jade from the Wushan Jade Mine of the Jiangdong Group..."

As soon as the bracelets appeared, the eyes of all the ladies present lit up instantly.

The texture of the bracelets was extremely moist and transparent; just looking at them with the naked eye, one knew they were not ordinary items.

Sure enough, when the host announced the starting bid of "four hundred yuan," everyone's reaction was very calm, because most upper-class people understood jade and knew that this item definitely wouldn't be cheap.

"Mom, this is good; we want this."

Before the bidding even started, Shen Ci spoke as if the item was already in their pocket.

Mainly because she had bought her mother many pieces of jewelry—gold, platinum, and diamonds, and of course, the pearls her mother loved—but the only thing missing was jade.

Because Shen Ci didn't understand it, and there were many tricks in the jade business, it was easy to get cheated, so she had never bought any for her mother.

But the jade appearing at the Jiangdong Charity Auction today must be excellent, so she could buy it with peace of mind.

Therefore, just as others were bidding in increments of twenty or thirty yuan, and after several rounds, the price of the bracelets reached five hundred yuan, Shen Ci slowly raised her number plate: "Eight hundred eighty!"

This light voice caused everyone present to look toward the sound. They saw Shen Ci sitting calmly in her seat, lifting her lips in a smile, and saying to everyone, "Just for good luck!"
