Under the gazes of the others who were whispering to each other, Nian Junting crossed his legs, proudly raised his chin, and said with a cold and clear voice, “Since this is a charity event, why are we caring so much about the price of the piece? The most important thing is that we’re going to help those children with leukemia. Perhaps if we pay more, one more life will be saved.
His words brought himself praise from almost all the others in the venue.
Even Luosang looked at him in a different way, saying, “Junting, I didn’t know that you like to help others.
“Mr. Nian is really a man of virtue. The emcee, who held the microphone, couldn’t stop complimenting Nian Junting.
Yi Jingxi clenched his teeth and raised his bidding paddle, “”One-point-five million.
“One-point-eight million, Nian Junting said, raising the price further.
“Two million, said Yi Jingxi.
This time, Nian Junting stayed silent.
The emcee looked at him and asked, “Mr. Nian, are you going to bid higher?
“Nope, Nian Junting shook his head.
Yi Jingxi finally sighed with relief. Looking at Nian Junting, he said, “Mr. Nian, didn’t you say that if we pay more, one more life might be saved?
Nian Junting nodded, glanced at him, and responded with, “Yeah, but the one who paid two-million for a modern landscape painting might be seen as an idiot.
Yi Jingxi’s pupils shrank, and his heart nearly exploded because of anger.
The corners of Luosang’s mouth twitched intensely.
She was honestly impressed by Nian Junting. It turned out that he said all the nice words earlier just to entrap Yi Jingxi.
Luosang admitted that she overestimated Nian Junting’s virtue.
However, seeing Yi Jingxi trying so hard to keep himself from losing his temper, she felt rather delighted.
So, the first piece was sold to Yi Jingxi like that.
For the second and third piece, Nian Junting didn’t make a move.
The fourth piece was a blue and white porcelain vase from the Ming Dynasty. The starting price was two-million and eight-hundred thousand yuan.
When someone offered four-million, Nian Junting raised his bidding paddle and said, “Six-million.
The venue stirred again.
Yi Jingxi curved his lips into a smile, raised his bidding paddle, and followed, “Eight-million.
“Ten-million, said Nian Junting.
Hearing that price, all the others turned to Yi Jingxi.
At that point, anyone with discerning eyes had figured out that Yi Jingxi was competing against Nian Junting on purpose.
This time, Yi Jingxi didn’t bid higher, but smilingly said to Nian Junting, “Mr. Nian, since you like this piece so much, I’ll just give it up.
You laughed at me earlier, but now, you’re going to pay ten-million for an average blue and white porcelain vase. What a fool.
Nian Junting gave a smile, then said with a loud voice, “Thank you Mr. Yi. I was waiting for you to bid higher, so I could buy this piece with a better price to help some more underprivileged children. What a shame. How about this—I’ll add five-million. I’ll pay fifteen-million for this vase, so we can build a few more primary schools for the needy children who are living in the mountain areas.
“Mr. Nian, on behalf of those children, I thank you for what you have done! The emcee excitedly started clapping.
Soon, the venue was overwhelmed by applause and praises.
Nian Junting smilingly stood up, waved his hand, then gently made a bow.
Luosang was a little speechless.
It’s such a waste that this man isn’t competing for an Oscar.
Yi Jingxi’s face had blushed crimson at the moment. He even wanted to chop up Nian Junting and chew him up.
Before, he barely made any contact with Nian Junting and was only impressed by his proudness.
But now, he found Nian Junting was so shameless that he could even turn black into white.
Zhong Yi held Yi Jingxi’s hand and said, “Jingxi, calm down. Stop bidding.
Yi Jingxi coldly threw away her hands and gave her a threatening glance.
