Chapter 134: Why She Can Win

Bao Sihan laughed lightly: "Since you've agreed to compete with Gu Mianmian, I believe my Yan Yan still has surprises in store that I never imagined."

Gu Wenyan curved her lips: "Then wait and see."

Gu Mianmian soon heard the staff report that Gu Wenyan's latest bid increase was ten million. Although it wasn't as crazy as before—jumping straight by twenty million—it was still a terrifying figure.

Gu Wenyan seemed to have financial reserves beyond anyone's imagination. With so much cash on hand, how on earth was she able to do it?

How could Gu Wenyan possibly have so much money?

Gu Wenyan used to live in the countryside—a country woman… Even if she knew how to grow those flowers, she shouldn't be that wealthy, right??

She was so generous, able to casually produce over a hundred million in cash!

Perhaps even the two elders of the Gu Family couldn't pull off such a feat. One could well imagine how shocked Gu Mianmian was at this moment.

Gu Mianmian clenched her teeth and told herself again that it was fine—maybe Gu Wenyan was already at her limit and about to lose.

She just needed to calm down, wait patiently, and soon she would see the scene of Gu Wenyan losing…

Gu Mianmian continued to bid, but still only by one million. What she needed to do now was exactly this—keep stalling for time.

Gu Mianmian hoped to watch Gu Wenyan gradually run out of the ability to keep competing with her.

However, their contest still hadn't ended at this point, even though Gu Mianmian felt she had the ability to win…

But the moment she added one million, Gu Wenyan would add two million, or even more!

In short, Gu Wenyan wouldn't let her win easily!

Gu Mianmian now even felt… Gu Wenyan was simply toying with her! Because she knew she still had plenty of money, so she simply didn't care…

Maybe Gu Wenyan's financial reserves were still abundant right now??

"Mianmian, how much do you have left? If it's not necessary, just give up. If you want other necklaces later, I'll bid and give them to you."

Gu Mianmian clenched her teeth: "Big Brother, I'll keep going. Don't worry, I won't give up so easily… Although I don't have much funds left, I'd rather take the risk than admit defeat so easily!"

She was too stubborn. Even if they wanted to persuade her now, it was useless—because someone who had gone bloodshot and become addicted to gambling would never change their decision.

Gu Mianmian had made this bet with Gu Wenyan fully convinced she could win. Although the young masters of the Gu Family also knew that Gu Mianmian's chance of winning… was next to nothing.

But until the final result appeared, Gu Mianmian definitely wouldn't give up so easily.

Gu Wenyan, on the other hand, had long since calmed her mindset. She was now completely toying with Gu Mianmian—she loved this cat-and-mouse feeling.

Watching Gu Mianmian run and run in front of her, unable to escape yet still struggling desperately—it was an unprecedented delight.

Gu Wenyan had never discovered this kind of fun before, but now she had finally tasted it.

When the price of the Blue Sapphire Necklace reached one hundred and thirty million, Gu Mianmian's eyes had already turned red, because she finally realized…

She had no money left.

The only price Gu Mianmian could accept was this bottom line. If it went any further, she truly couldn't produce the funds.

So in today's auction, Gu Mianmian was destined to lose.

Tears fell. Gu Mianmian couldn't accept this outcome, crying as she muttered to herself: "Why does Gu Wenyan have so much money? She used to live in the countryside—where could she have found a way to earn money…"

"Although we still don't know what method Wen Yan used, I can remind you not to underestimate anyone. Even though you live in the Gu Family and can enjoy a privileged life, others can still achieve success through their own efforts."

Gu Yeting said: "Perhaps when you weren't looking, she had already achieved her life goals."

His words were meant for Gu Mianmian's own good, reminding her not to be too affected.

However, Gu Mianmian simply couldn't take in Gu Yeting's comfort. She even felt that Gu Wenyan's money still wasn't her own—there had to be some other reason!

For instance… Gu Yeting secretly giving it to Gu Wenyan?

But Gu Mianmian didn't dare question it openly, only secretly thinking it in her heart.

Every private box had an intercom. Gu Wenyan called over at this moment, her laughter light: "Gu Mianmian, how is it? Will you keep going? If you don't join the bidding, then I win."

"You… is this money really yours? Don't try to fool me using someone else's money!"

"Why would I do that? If you don't believe me, I'm perfectly willing to hand you my bank records showing this money has been deposited for over two years. Two years ago…"

Gu Wenyan said coldly: "You should know perfectly well what my relationship with these brothers of mine was like, and you're even more aware of how I treated Si Han two years ago under your deception!"

"So at that time, I couldn't possibly have gotten this cash from them. Surely you can't keep doubting me now, can you?"

Gu Mianmian broke down: "I don't believe it!"

She simply couldn't accept it. No matter how Gu Wenyan explained, she insisted that Gu Wenyan's money hadn't been earned by herself.

"Perhaps you could also tell us how you obtained such funds, to convince her to stop questioning you."

Gu Yechen said.

Since Gu Wenyan had said this much, she didn't continue to hide it: "You can go look into the largest flower trading market in Asia today—fifty percent of the flowers there come from me. So earning this money shouldn't be that strange."

What?? The largest flower trading market in Asia?

Thinking of Gu Wenyan's flower-growing abilities and hearing her say this…

Gu Mianmian's face instantly went pale, and the young masters of the Gu Family were all shocked.

Although they didn't know the details, holding a fifty percent share in the flower trading market was something no ordinary ability could achieve.

Before Gu Wenyan returned to the Gu Family, she had already controlled such resources??

"Enough said—admit defeat, Gu Mianmian. A person can be confident, but not overly arrogant."

Gu Wenyan said coldly: "Also, everything you have now comes from the Gu Family, not yourself. So face reality."

"Even if you control the flower trading market, is that really something you earned yourself? Maybe you also…"

"Enough." Gu Yeting interrupted somewhat impatiently. "Wen Yan has already made it perfectly clear. Are you still unwilling to accept this reality?"

Gu Mianmian immediately felt she had lost all face, and ran out of the private box crying.
