CHAPTER 1195: CHAPTER 237: SILVER-TONGUED AND SATISFYING

Later it reached three hundred million, which was beyond everyone’s expectations. They looked at that person like they were looking at a fool. Li Yalong was obviously doing it deliberately; does he really have money with nowhere to spend?

Li Yalong gritted his teeth; it was pointless to continue, so he gave up the idea.

"Three hundred million, sold! Congratulations to this gentleman, ’Love of the Enamored City’ is yours. Thank you for your contribution to charity, good deeds bring peace."

The most shocked was Lady Xiao, who ended up auctioning a sky-high price of three hundred million. The one most pained was Xiao Bao’er—three hundred million, three hundred million, ah ah ah... Is her mom’s brain filled with holes? Wouldn’t it be better to keep such peerless jewelry for her, but she insists on donating it.

The man chuckled lightly, his ordinary face showing a unique kind of wisdom.

"May I ask your name, sir?" Lady Xiao asked with a gentle smile.

"Just a humble name, not worth mentioning." The man smiled and actually got up and left just like that.

Not only was Lady Xiao stunned, most of the people present were stunned as well, this person is, indeed, quite carefree...

The auction was nearing its end, and after Lady Xiao spoke a few words, the banquet was about to disperse. Yun Ya, holding Zhuang Xiyue’s arm, was about to leave, and at this time most people were filing out of the hall. Yun Ya glanced around but did not see Ye Xiaoxiao’s silhouette.

The two walked slowly toward the exit, Zhuang Xiyue whispered: "Ah Song just sent me a message saying he’s coming to pick you up, why didn’t he just call you directly?"

Yun Ya took out her phone and glanced at it, smiled helplessly: "The phone is dead and turned off."

"Let’s go, don’t keep Ah Song waiting too long. This brat only said he’s picking you up, he didn’t even mention me, this son is really born for nothing."

Yun Ya cheerfully held onto her arm: "But you gained a daughter! Can you find another little jacket as pretty and considerate as me?"

Zhuang Xiyue smiled and pinched her nose: "You little girl, indeed, there’s no more considerate little jacket than you."

Yun Ya giggled, the two were like mother and daughter, making Yan Lan, who was walking beside them, feel sore in her teeth, and she said with a sigh: "They say mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies, seeing you two makes me believe in this world again."

Meng Shujing’s eyes flashed slightly; she always knew Zhuang Xiyue was very good to Yun Ya. It was exactly Zhuang Xiyue’s attitude that changed her mind; Zhuang Xiyue was indeed an easygoing mother-in-law. Of course, the premise is you must be deemed suitable by Zhuang Xiyue; otherwise, when she gets angry, it’s quite terrifying.

Seeing that Ji Yunya’s position is very secure, Meng Shujing could only follow Yan Ke’s line. Ji Yunya had already agreed to help her build a connection, and although Yan Ke wasn’t as good as Yan Song, he was still part of the second family.

The group chatted and laughed as they walked outside, when Xiao Bao’er came to Yun Ya’s side and said with a smile: "Miss Ji, are you leaving now? I feel like there’s still so much I want to talk to you about, why don’t I give you a lift?"

After what happened earlier, Zhuang Xiyue didn’t have a good impression of this Xiao Bao’er, but with so many people around, it was not appropriate to say much, so she smiled at Yun Ya: "Young people, you should chat more."

As they talked, Xiao Bao’er was full of admiration: "You were so incredible just now, speaking so eloquently and being so knowledgeable. No wonder my mom wants me to learn more from you; I’m really inferior to you in everything." Her tone was a bit wistful.

"My grandfather liked these things, and since childhood, I was influenced by him, so I understand a bit. It’s not worthy of your praise." Yun Ya modestly smiled, remembering how her grandfather used to hold her and tell her stories, especially the one about "Spring Light". Her grandfather pointed at the missing part on the seal in the painting and told Yun Ya the story, she always remembered it; she could only say Ye Xiaoxiao was unlucky to run into her.

"You’re just too modest... That Ye Xiaoxiao really deserves a lesson. It was thrilling what you did just now; you have no idea how ugly her face looked. But she’s really petty and vengeful. You should be careful, she might retaliate." Xiao Bao’er spoke with genuine concern.

Yun Ya smiled faintly: "If you’re upright, why fear the shadows? Why should I fear her?"

Xiao Bao’er curled her lips slightly.

"That’s true, but how’s that saying go? Better to offend a gentleman than to offend a petty person..."

Ye Xiaoxiao is definitely a petty person.

As they walked on, they fell behind the group. Zhuang Xiyue was pulled by Meng Shujing to chat and didn’t notice the back for a moment, until they exited the hall’s main door. Zhuang Xiyue subconsciously turned to glance back, wanting Yun Ya to catch up, and that glance almost scared her out of her wits.
