As if it wasn't shocking enough, the host added, "USD."
The whole room was in an uproar.
"Ridiculous. Making up a ridiculous story and wanting to auction it for one billion USD. It's more practical to rob a bank."
"I've never seen an item with such a high price. Only a lunatic would buy this."
Before the discussion was over, someone had already bid, "1.1 billion."
"…" Everyone looked at the source of the voice, wanting to see which idiot was so rich. Then, they saw Xia Wanruan raise her hand.
"This lady has bid 1.1 billion. Is there anyone who wants to bid higher?"
"1.2 billion." In the corner, a man wearing a mask opened his mouth.
"1.2 billion. Okay, is there anyone who wants to bid higher?"
"Thirteen."
.....
The man in the corner seemed to be at odds with Xia Wanruan. Every time Xia Wanruan increased the bid, the man in the corner would also increase it.
Finally, when the man increased the bid to thirty, Xia Wanruan gave up.
"Thirty going once!
Three billion going twice!
Three billion going thrice!
Okay, congratulations to this gentleman for obtaining today's auction item. "
Everyone else in the room was stunned. What did three billion mean??
No matter how rich one was, one shouldn't spend money like this.
This auction house adhered to absolute confidentiality and fairness. After the buyer paid, the auction house transferred all the money after the commission to the seller. After the seller agreed, the auction item was sent to the buyer.
Everyone was very curious about the person who had spent tens of billions. However, the buyer was quite low-key and disappeared after taking the item.
The auction ended and the people in the room gradually left. Jun Shiling, who was sitting silently, finally turned his head and looked at Xia Wanruan greedily. Then, he got up and left.
After Jun Shiling left, Xia Wanruan sat in her seat for a long time until Yu Qian reminded her coldly, "Are you going or not?"
"You go first. I want to be alone for a while."
"Are you sure?" Yu Qian frowned. "I'm not very patient."
Xia Wanruan raised her head at this time, a coldness that had not appeared in her eyes for a long time. "I said, I want to be alone for a while."
Yu Qian was stunned by Xia Wanruan's fierce tone. "Then you can stay here by yourself."
With that, Yu Qian strode away.
Soon, Xia Wanruan was the only one left in the entire venue. She was quietly sipping her tea. No one knew what she was thinking.
Outside the door, Yu Qian had only taken a few steps when he called his subordinate over. "What is Xia Wanruan doing inside?"
"Drink some tea."
"And?"
"That's all."
"Keep an eye on her."
At this time, in a hotel very close to the auction house, a tall figure was standing by the window, quietly watching the people in the venue.
"President Jun, why don't you take a rest first?" Lin Jing walked in and persuaded Jun Shiling.
After seeing the news in the morning, Jun Shiling rushed over with Lin Jing as fast as he could. Jun Shiling had been busy with work all night, and now he was tired from running around. Lin Jing was worried that Jun Shiling would not be able to take it.
"No." Jun Shiling took a sip of black coffee. "Have you tracked the buyer's information?"
"As you expected, that person is indeed in contact with the people in World A. We have changed teams of people and are following him closely. Don't worry, we will definitely find out who is behind this."
