Chapter 65: Mr. Feng, could you do me a favor?

Feng Tingshen smiled: "It's fine. Didn't you say your grandmother likes it? Bid on it."

Looking at Feng Tingshen's smile, Lin Wu felt sweet inside and raised her paddle again: "Sixty million."

Ren Jifeng followed closely behind: "Seventy million."

After speaking, he said loudly to Feng Tingshen: "Mr. Feng, the elders in my family love this kind of thing. Could you do me a favor and let it go?"

Feng Tingshen looked over and gave a polite smile: "My apologies, Mr. Ren, there is an elder in my family who likes it too."

They did not shy away from others during this conversation.

Rong Ci and Chu Zilan naturally heard it too.

The vase was being bid on for the elder Mrs. Lin.

Yet Feng Tingshen referred to the other party as an elder in his own family, showing he already considered the Lin family his own.

In this regard, his attitude was truly worlds apart from how he treated her family.

Lin Wu raised her paddle: "Eighty-five million."

This time, Ren Jifeng did not follow.

In the end, Lin Wu secured the antique vase for eighty-five million, once again drawing envious gazes from the entire room.

When it was finalized, Lin Wu actually didn't feel very secure inside.

Although the Lin family could be considered a wealthy family, her grandmother was an antique enthusiast who did indeed spend a large sum of money every year to hunt for a few items.

But spending nearly a hundred million on an antique was something she wouldn't even dare to imagine.

If her family found out about this, they would probably be quite shocked.

What's more, for this bid, Feng Tingshen had actually told her directly to offer a price of one hundred million.

But she still felt the price was too high, so she changed it to eighty-five million on her own.

Thinking of Feng Tingshen's lavishness in spending money, Lin Wu felt warm inside.

Chu Zilan: "Damn! It's nearly a hundred million!"

With the two items added together, wasn't it close to a hundred million?

This time, her teeth didn't just ache.

Her whole body was aching through and through!

Rong Ci pursed her lips tightly, her expression not looking very good. Seeing this, Chu Zilan said: "Xiao Ci, are you... okay?"

Feng Tingshen was so good to the mistress, and this mistress was the daughter of her mother's mistress.

Could she endure this anger?

But Rong Ci's expression was not bad because of this.

"Feng Tingshen has money, and how he spends it is none of my business, nor do I care."

"What I care about now is that if Feng Tingshen and Lin Wu also want to bid on the things I want, with my financial resources, I cannot possibly outbid them."

Chu Zilan also reacted: "That... is true... but she has already bid on two items, she shouldn't bid anymore, right?"

She hoped so.

But Rong Ci knew that with Feng Tingshen's financial power, if he bid on a few more items tonight and spent another two or three hundred million, he wouldn't even blink.

When Rong Ci thought of this, the embroidery piece she wanted was brought onto the stage.

The starting price for this embroidery piece was also five million.

Someone bid first: "Six million."

Rong Ci raised her paddle: "Seven million."

At first, Lin Wu really hadn't noticed Rong Ci.

Now that Rong Ci's voice came out, Lin Wu recognized it.

She looked back and met Rong Ci's gaze.

Lin Wu had no expression on her face, quickly turned her head away proudly, and raised her paddle: "Ten million."

Hearing this, Rong Ci's heart sank immediately.

Lin Wu had heard her voice, and Rong Ci didn't believe Feng Tingshen hadn't heard it.

But he did not look back.

Chu Zilan cursed directly: "Damn! She really is grabbing it again!"

Ren Jifeng also made a move: "Fifteen million."

Rong Ci pursed her lips and raised her paddle: "Eighteen million."

Lin Wu did not look back and bid directly: "Twenty-five million."

Lin Wu had suddenly raised the bid by so much again!

Rong Ci's heart kept sinking.

She didn't have much money on hand.

For this auction, her initial budget was within thirty million.

After all, the Rong family's business was not doing well now.

They didn't have much spare money to squander.

But now...

Ren Jifeng: "Twenty-eight million."

Rong Ci raised her paddle: "Thirty million."

Rong Ci had spoken twice in a row after him, and her voice was clear, gentle, and very pleasant to hear.

Hearing the voice, Ren Jifeng looked over.

When he saw Rong Ci, he was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Seeing him look over, Rong Ci also nodded politely in response.

Just at this moment, Lin Wu continued to raise her paddle: "Forty million."

Rong Ci had no heart to pay attention to Ren Jifeng anymore, and her hands clenched into fists upon hearing the sound.

At this time, Ren Jifeng spoke again: "Forty-three million."

Rong Ci followed closely: "Forty-five million."

Lin Wu: "Fifty million."

Boom—!

Rong Ci's brain exploded all at once.

The budget she had given at the beginning was indeed thirty million.

But when Lin Wu made her move just now, she had silently raised her budget from thirty million to fifty million in her heart.

It wasn't that she couldn't afford a higher price.

She had even thought that Feng Tingshen had given her a villa just a few days ago.

Selling that villa would be worth two or three hundred million.

Since these two or three hundred million were all gained for free, what if she spent this money now?

But she knew very well that this embroidery piece was not worth fifty million.

She could spend it like this, but...

She was in no position to be willful now.

If she really sold the villa, she could completely use this money to do more meaningful things.

Thinking of this, Rong Ci silently put down her hand.

Chu Zilan said: "Why don't you contact Feng Tingshen?"

Rong Ci had thought about it too.

But would Feng Tingshen let Lin Wu give up what she loved because of her?

Impossible.

Even knowing it was impossible, Rong Ci still took out her phone and called Feng Tingshen.

When the phone vibrated, Feng Tingshen took it out of his pocket.

Lin Wu happened to look over and saw only a string of numbers on it, with no label, so she asked: "A stranger?"

Feng Tingshen smiled, didn't speak, and hung up the phone directly.

Looking at the phone that was hung up without hesitation, the only glimmer of expectation Rong Ci held instantly turned to nothing.

Rong Ci's mind went blank for a moment.

Chu Zilan said angrily: "Damn, he actually didn't answer your call!"

Rong Ci didn't speak and silently put the phone back into her bag.

At this time, the auction price had already reached ninety-five million.

Ren Jifeng rubbed his eyebrows and looked at Feng Tingshen: "Mr. Feng, could you do me a favor?"

Feng Tingshen smiled politely: "Next time for sure."

Ren Jifeng: "..."

Next time my ass!

He raised his paddle, directly pushing the price up to one hundred and twenty million.

Lin Wu raised her paddle: "One hundred and fifty million."

Ren Jifeng: "..."

Seeing this, Chu Zilan gritted her teeth and whispered in Rong Ci's ear: "This is the first time I've seen Ren Jifeng get thwarted."

The Ren family, like the Feng family, were both top-tier wealthy families.

Ren Jifeng didn't look as crazy as Feng Tingshen when bidding this time; those who didn't know might think there was a huge gap in financial strength between him and Feng Tingshen.

In fact, that was not the case.

Ren Jifeng was probably just weighing things, not wanting to spend money in vain.

And Feng Tingshen, in order to win a beauty's smile, was simply not treating money as money.

With no one else bidding, the embroidery piece was naturally once again pocketed by Lin Wu.

Feng Tingshen looked at Ren Jifeng: "Mr. Ren, I concede."

Ren Jifeng: "Mr. Feng is too polite."
