Chapter 369: Chapter 369 Ancestor, You are the Most Handsome Woman in the World
The previously ignored Moonstone necklace suddenly caught the interest of a guest, who bid 1.1 million for it.
Chu Qiaoen: "1.2 million!"
The other party: "1.3 million."
Chu Qiaoen: "Damn, 1.5 million!"
The other party: "2 million."
Chu Qiaoen: "..."
Damn it, is this person purposely trying to outbid her?
Otherwise, no one wanted this understated Moonstone necklace just a moment ago.
At this very moment.
In VIP Room 1.
The little crow, nibbling on the freshly imported cherries and custard apples sent by the manager, was very discontent: "What kind of crappy fruit is this? It doesn’t have any Spiritual Energy taste, practically pig feed."
Fu Xiqin: "I really miss the fruits from the East Sea..."
Zuzi glanced at the two who long perfected their paths and no longer needed food: "Craving it, aren’t you?"
The two little ones: "Aww, Ancestor understands us! Without snacks, life is truly dull for a bird (qin)..."
Zuzi’s red lips curled slightly, and her jade fingers danced over the auction catalog: "Which one do you like? Ancestor will buy it for you."
"Really! Oh, Ancestor, you’re Qin Qin’s angel. Qin Qin promises to be more loyal to you than to our master!"
"Ancestor, but we didn’t bring any money, so we can only enjoy the spectacle..."
Zuzi lazily waved her hand: "Money, it’s not hard to have it if we want it. Let’s win the bid first." Ancestor never worried about money.
Coincidentally, a Moonstone necklace was brought out.
"Xiao Jin, you haven’t interacted with the moonlight in ages. The Moonstone contains the light of the moon, filled with some Spiritual Energy, it’s quite suitable for you."
"Jinjin wants it!"
Zuzi raised her hand to ring the bell and gave their bid through the intercom: "1.1 million."
The little crow anxiously watched the bidding updates on the screen: "Damn, there’s someone shameless enough to want to fight us for it? Ancestor, I’ll go peck her to death!"
"Xiao Jin, when money can win, why bother? Isn’t it tiring? Bid 4 million."
"Ancestor, you are the most stunning woman in the world."
Fu Xiqin was enviously going mad.

Chu Qiaoen was infuriated by the sudden appearance of this rival bidder.
Initially, she didn’t think much of the Moonstone necklace, but now with someone competing, she felt more and more that she must have this treasure: "4 million, why doesn’t she go rob a bank! No, I’m bidding 4.5 million!"
But Gu Shiyin started advising her: "Qiaoen, that’s too expensive, it exceeds your budget of 3 million..."
Chu Qiaoen: "I can use my credit card! Aunt Shiyin, I trust your expertise in appraising treasures. This Moonstone must be valuable, after all, you are..."
Gu Shiyin placed a finger on her lips, making a "shh" gesture.
Chu Qiaoen got the hint and continued bidding: "5.5 million!"
The other party: "6 million."
The whole room burst into excitement.
No one expected it to reach 6 million so quickly, breaking the evening’s record. It even surpassed the starting bid for the highest-valued Han Dynasty nephrite jade at 5 million. What’s so special about this stone anyway?
Chen Long and Yin Hu, both big guys, were utterly baffled: A necklace worth 6 million???
Chu Qiaoen wanted to continue bidding but suddenly found herself coughing and struggling to speak, her throat somewhat sore, and her mouth aching greatly.
Upon touching, she found that blisters had formed around her lips, even in her throat, making it feel like sandpaper scraping.
Struggling to utter even a few words, it was all muddled—
"Aunt Shiyin, oww, it hurts!"
"Maybe it’s inflammation; I’ll make you some cooling tea."
"Ah— I’m dying! There’s no time to bid!"
