Chapter 584: Raising the Price 4

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Just stay calm,” Ye Hongxuan advised, even though Ye Wanwan acknowledged the truth of his words. “If the price turns out to be too high, we’ll simply back off. Remember, while the Seven Star Flower is rare, we do have some within the family. If the bidding goes excessively high, the elders will surely have strong objections.”

“Father, don’t worry. I know what to do,” reassured Ye Wanwan.

Upon hearing Ye Wanwan increasing the bid by another billion, Ye Lengan raised an eyebrow but continued bidding, “805 million Spirit Coins.”

Undeterred, Ye Wanwan matched her bid. “900 million Spirit Coins.”

After exchanging bids, Ye Wanwan shot a provocative glance at Ye Leng’an, asserting her determination to secure the Seven Star Flower.

Finding amusement in her provocations, Ye Lengan calmly countered. “910 million Spirit Coins.”

Following swiftly, Ye Wanwan boldly declared, “One billion Spirit Coins.”

The auction venue now had only Ye Wanwan and Ye Lengan in an intense bidding war.

Observers were astounded by Ye Wanwan’s aggressive bidding style, adding nearly a hundred million with each bid. It was clear that the Ye family’s young lady was targeting the fiancée of the Huangfu family’s head. The question lingered – did she genuinely desire the Seven Star Flower, or was this merely a rivalry?

“Wanwan, you’ve gone mad,” Ye Hongxuan expressed concern. “Are you after the Seven Star Flower, or are you just trying to compete with Ye An’an? Ten billion Spirit Coins far exceed the flower’s actual value.”

Although Ye Hongxuan also wished to secure the Seven Star Flower, he wasn’t willing to pay an exorbitant price.

“Father, don’t worry,” Ye Wanwan smirked. “l know the bid has surpassed the flower’s value. But you can see that Ye Aryan is determined. Just like before, she’ll spare no expense to get it. In that case, I’ll make her pay an even greater price. ”

Understanding his daughter’s strategy, Ye Hongxuan remarked, “You want to drive up the price.”

“Exactly.” Ye Wanwan nodded. “I want Ye An t an to bleed. Father, just watch! Ye An’ an will definitely bid again.”

True to Ye Wanwan’s expectations, shortly after her statement, Ye Leng’an’s voice rang out, “One billion ten million Spirit Coins.”

The audience felt a sense of déjå vu, having experienced a similar scenario just moments ago.

Undeterred, Ye Wanwan swiftly countered. “1.1 billion Spirit Coins.” Furrowing his brows, Ye Hongxuan intervened, “Wanwan, that’s enough!”

“Father, don’t worry.” Ye Wanwan dismissed his concern. “Just watch! Ye An t an will continue raising the price.”

Seeing through Ye Wanwan’s tactics, Ye Lengan and Huangfu Ruiling remained unfazed.

“She’s deliberately inflating the price,” Huangfu Ruiling commented casually.

“An’an, do you intend to continue?”

Regarding the sum of money involved, he wasn’t concerned. As long as Ye Lengan was satisfied, he had no objections. Therefore, whether or not to continue was entirely up to An’an’s pleasure.

“Ye Wanwan wants me to be the sucker!” Ye Leng’an’s lips curled into a cold smile, an inscrutable glint in her eyes. “However, who the real sucker will be in the end is still unknown!”

Understanding Ye Leng’an’s intentions, Huangfu Ruiling couldn’t help but playfully flick Ye Leng’an’s nose. He spoke in an indulgent tone,

“Mischievous!”

“1.15 billion Spirit Coins.”

Ye Lengan once again raised the bid, then turned to Huangfu Ruiling with a smile, saying, “This is called giving a taste of their own medicine.” Huangfu Ruiling chuckled. “What if Ye Wanwan gives up now?”

“Then I can only admit defeat,” Ye Leng’an responded, looking directly at Huangfu Ruiling. “l just don’t know if you’re willing to pay the bill.” Huangfu Ruiling laughed and shook his head. “What do you think?”

Ye Lengan smiled but remained silent.

Meanwhile, Ye Wanwan intended to continue the bidding, but Ye Hongxuan intervened.

“Wanwan, don’t make a scene anymore.” Ye Hongxuan’s tone now carried a hint of anger. “If we do manage to win, you’ll have to explain it to the elders.” Seeing her father genuinely upset, Ye Wanwan reluctantly halted her bids.

Although everyone had initially anticipated Ye Wanwan continuing to bid, her decision to withdraw left a sense of disappointment.

Even though Ye Wanwan had ceased bidding, her discontent lingered. She looked toward Ye Lengan, hoping to witness regret in her expression, but all she saw was her composed demeanor.

Sensing Ye Wanwan’s gaze, Ye Lengan raised her head and offered a smile. Then, she mouthed four words without uttering a sound.

Upon seeing her smile, Ye Wanwan was momentarily taken aback. However, when she read the silent words, the thread of rationality in her mind snapped.

With red eyes, she raised her hand. “1..2 billion Spirit Coins!”
