Chapter 2516
The auction ended, and Mi Mingquan walked toward Su Xinghui and Yu Ruizhi, saying with a beaming face, "Ruizhi, you really shocked the whole room today."
Yu Ruizhi said, "Uncle Mi, I'm really sorry for competing with you for this painting today."
Mi Mingquan laughed and said, "What kind of thing is that? As for that jade pendant of mine, I should thank you for giving me face."
Yu Ruizhi took the opportunity to take out the jade pendant and said, "I heard that this jade pendant was an item you liked very much when you were young. I dare not take what others love, so this jade pendant should return to its original owner."
Mi Mingquan looked at the jade pendant, and a complex expression appeared on his face. That expression contained nostalgia, reminiscence, and pain, but these all happened in an instant. Soon, he returned to a smile and said, "That's not necessary. Since you bought it, it means this jade pendant has a connection with you. Keep it well."
Yu Ruizhi wanted to say something else, but Su Xinghui saw Mi Mingquan's expression. This jade pendant must have had many stories for Mi Mingquan. Since he took the jade pendant out for auction, there must have been a reason why he didn't want to keep it.
Su Xinghui said to Yu Ruizhi, "Brother Yu, since Uncle Mi said so, you should keep this jade pendant."
Yu Ruizhi then put the jade pendant away again. Mi Mingquan said, "In any case, thank you for your support today, Ruizhi. Let's go back."
With Yu Ruizhi's support today, the funds raised by their charity auction were indeed more than usual. In such charity auctions, the items donated for auction are usually not too precious. They mainly serve the purpose of advocating public welfare and networking. Generally speaking, it is very successful for a charity auction to raise 2 to 3 million in funds.
But today they raised over 5 million. It must be said that the 2.7 million Hong Kong dollars spent by Yu Ruizhi played a big role. This also made Mi Mingquan, as an organizer, have face, which is why Mi Mingquan thanked Yu Ruizhi.
The group returned to the Mi residence. Lu Xiaoya gave Niuniu a bath first, then let Su Xinghui take a bath, and she was the last one to take a bath and go to bed.
Lu Xiaoya said to Su Xinghui, "Niuniu and Haowen were very unhappy today."
Su Xinghui knew this was because that star called them country bumpkins. They liked that star very much, but they were treated like this, so their young hearts would naturally be hurt.
Su Xinghui said, "It's fine, they are just children, they will be fine tomorrow. Weren't those two people driven out?"
Lu Xiaoya said, "Are you really going to blacklist those two stars?"
Su Xinghui said, "They brought this upon themselves!"
Su Xinghui knew that Lu Xiaoya was too kind. She might feel that ruining someone's future over this small quarrel was unbearable, but these two people really brought it upon themselves and were not worthy of sympathy.
Sure enough, Lu Xiaoya said, "Why not just give them a warning? I believe they will change in the future."
Su Xinghui shook his head and said, "If they don't receive the punishment they deserve, how could they change? Think about it, if it wasn't us today, but ordinary people, wouldn't they have been humiliated by them? If they really repent in the future, it's not like they won't have a chance to make a comeback."
Although Lu Xiaoya was kind-hearted, she was not a saint. She heard that Su Xinghui's words made sense, so she nodded in agreement, and the two rested together.
That night, the agent of that mainland female star received a notice from the organizers of the Hong Kong Millennium Countdown Gala, saying that her name had been removed from the performance list.
The female star was immediately in a bind. There was no need to mention how high the attention for this countdown gala was. This was an important step for her to ambitiously become a top superstar. Previously, the gala organizers had already announced her name, and her team had also publicized this matter extensively, but what should she do now?
If she was suddenly canceled after such publicity, wouldn't she become the laughingstock of the whole country? Did she have any future to speak of?
She realized that she had offended someone she shouldn't have offended, which made her regret it so much that her intestines turned green. If possible, she was willing to pay any price to save this matter, even if it meant selling her body.
Anyway, in order to get ahead, she didn't know how many times she had sold herself, so what did it matter if she sold herself one more time?
It's just that this time, she couldn't even find the temple door even if she carried a pig's head. She didn't even know Su Xinghui's name, so where could she go to find him to sell her body?
She was terrified, but she had no other way. After thinking about it, the only person who could help her now might be Fang Bingye, whom she knew in Hong Kong. She could only go to Fang Bingye. ===== CHAPTER 2518 =====
