Chapter 1916: Cannot steal the show

Fei Kexin had long ago understood the process and requirements of the Rejuvenation Pill auction very clearly.

However, in front of Ye Chen, she still pretended to be surprised while listening to his introduction.

Ye Chen was just putting on a show, deliberately pretending that he still firmly believed she was that Zhan Feier from France.

This was because Ye Chen didn't intend to expose Fei Kexin's identity. He planned to continue acting with Fei Kexin like this, and then wait for Fei Kexin to take the initiative to clarify everything to him.

So, the two, each with their own thoughts, came to the security entrance of the banquet hall.

Ye Chen handed a VIP invitation letter to Fei Kexin and said to her, "Miss Zhan, you just take the invitation letter and go in yourself. As long as you hand the invitation letter to the staff, the staff will naturally take you directly to the box on the second floor."

Fei Kexin asked in surprise, "Mr. Ye, aren't you going in together?"

Ye Chen smiled, "I only have a VIP invitation letter, but my status is not a VIP, but a consultant for this auction. So I have to sit in the monitoring room later, so I won't go to the scene."

"So that's how it is." Fei Kexin nodded lightly. Although Ye Chen not going in with her made her feel a bit disappointed, she thought about it again: since Ye Chen was the big boss behind the scenes of this auction, it was naturally impossible for him to go to the VIP room to watch with her; he must be in some place where he could oversee the overall situation and monitor everything in real-time.

So, she said to Ye Chen, "Mr. Ye, since that's the case, then I'll go in first. I'll contact you as soon as the auction ends."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "The security check for the auction is very strict. You have to hand over your mobile phone and all your personal belongings to the security guards for storage, and before the auction starts, your personal items will be taken to other places for temporary storage. But don't worry, when the auction ends, the security guards will bring all your personal items over."

"Okay!" Fei Kexin really didn't expect that the security here would be strict to this extent. Not only were personal belongings not allowed to be brought in, but they were even transferred to other places.

However, she also knew that she had no choice, so she could only nod and accept it.

Subsequently, Ye Chen said goodbye to Fei Kexin and let her pass the security check, while he prepared to return to the monitoring room.

The location of the monitoring room was in a box behind the banquet hall.

The venue for this auction was temporarily renovated by the hotel's catering department. Besides the largest banquet hall, there were several high-end banquet boxes themselves. Chen Zekai chose a box more than ten meters away from the banquet hall. Although this distance was very close, because the soundproofing was done very well, it wouldn't be disturbed by any interference.

And these boxes, besides one used as a monitoring room, also had a temporary lounge, which was prepared for Song Wanting.

Because Song Wanting would personally serve as the auctioneer for the auction tonight, she was waiting in this lounge.

When Ye Chen passed by the door of her lounge, the door happened to open. Song Wanting was just about to walk out. Meeting Ye Chen head-on, her bright eyes were instantly filled with surprise, and she blurted out, "Master Ye!"

Ye Chen smiled, "Wanting, how is the preparation?"

Song Wanting shook the cards full of manuscripts in her hand and said somewhat nervously, "The preparation work was done quite early, it's just that my mood is more or less a bit nervous."

As she spoke, she smiled lightly and explained, "To be honest, I haven't been an auctioneer before, and more importantly, those who come to participate in the auction this time are basically well-informed and wealthy. I'm worried that I won't perform well and make them laugh at me."

Ye Chen comforted with a smile, "Actually, you don't need to be nervous at all. These people who came tonight can even give up their dignity for the Rejuvenation Pill, so no matter whether you perform well or poorly, no one dares to laugh at you."

Song Wanting nodded lightly and said shyly, "Actually... actually, I'm mainly afraid that I won't perform well and let you down, Master Ye..."

Ye Chen smiled, "No, today is our seller's market. As long as the Rejuvenation Pill is put out, even if we run it poorly, I'm afraid they will still want to squeeze their heads to participate next year. So you can go ahead and do it boldly, without worrying about whether you perform well or not!"

Hearing him say this, the nervousness in Song Wanting's heart was indeed eased quite a bit. She nodded slightly and said, "Okay, Master Ye, Wanting understands!"

Ye Chen said "Hmm," remembered something, and said, "By the way, Wanting, for this auction, I originally wanted to invite your grandfather to attend as a VIP, but then I thought about it. You have just taken over the Song Group not long ago. This kind of occasion should be a good opportunity for you, the new head of the Song family, to show yourself well. If I invited Old Mr. Song over again, it would seem a bit like stealing the show, so I dismissed this idea. You must not blame me."

Song Wanting had actually thought about this problem before. ===== CHAPTER 1917 =====
