Urban Dominating Immortal Doctor

Chapter 663: Gala Auction


"Yeah, and there's more."

Looking into Xu Mengjie's sparkling eyes, Qin Yang nodded. He really couldn't bear to refuse her; otherwise, who knows how disappointed she would be.

"Great, I knew you would have some. I want a truckload, no, two truckloads, actually, just however much you have..."

Xu Mengjie's eyes became extraordinarily bright in that instant, her pretty face full of smiles. She started counting on her fingers but eventually just gave up counting.

"When you say a truck, you mean?"

Qin Yang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"A truck, a big truck."

Xu Mengjie said excitedly, and she gestured with her small white hands in front of Qin Yang.

"Ahem, that's a bit greedy."

Seeing Xu Mengjie's gesture, Qin Yang coughed lightly and said. Although his orchard had quite a few grapevines, it might not fill an entire truck.

"I'll give you at most twenty jin."

Qin Yang looked at Xu Mengjie and said.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Xu Mengjie's sparkling eyes suddenly dimmed a lot.

"Isn't that a bit too little? Can't you give me more? I can give you lots of autographs, even if you don't want them, your classmates, friends, maybe some of them are my fans..."

Xu Mengjie raised her head and looked at Qin Yang expectantly.

Hearing this, Qin Yang was a bit speechless, wondering what he would do with so many autographs.

"Why don't you start with this, and we can talk if it's not enough."

Qin Yang had no choice but to say.

At that moment, a staff member in a tuxedo rushed over.

"Miss Xu, there you are, you're up on stage soon."

The tuxedoed staff member said when he saw the famous Xu Mengjie and a young man in the corridor.

"Okay, you go first; I'll be right there."

Xu Mengjie said.

The staff member originally wanted to ask Xu Mengjie for an autograph, but seeing that she was with someone, he refrained.

After the staff member left, Xu Mengjie looked up at Qin Yang, a smile appearing on her pretty face.

"Okay then, twenty jin it is. Let's go to the banquet hall. I'll pay you later, so you won't run away."

Xu Mengjie smiled and said.

"No need for money, didn't you auction your pearl necklace? Consider the grapes as a commendation for your kindness."

Qin Yang waved his hand and said.

"Hehe, alright then, I won't be polite."

Xu Mengjie's beautiful eyes flickered as she looked at Qin Yang with a smiling face.

"Let's go, Qin Yang, to the event venue."

Xu Mengjie said.

Qin Yang originally intended to leave, but seeing Xu Mengjie's invitation, and since he had nothing pressing to do, he accompanied Xu Mengjie to the event venue.

"Next, let's welcome Huaxia's little diva, Miss Xu Mengjie, to the stage."

On the stage of the event, a beautiful female host announced.

Pa-pa-pa!

As soon as the words fell, a loud applause erupted at the scene. Although Xu Mengjie was young, she was very famous, and everyone present knew she had another significant identity.

Xu Mengjie, wearing a light purple evening gown and her face glowing, elegantly walked onto the stage, with the stage lights following her figure.

Qin Yang smiled slightly; she was just a little girl before him, yet on stage, she had a hint of a big star's aura.

Qin Yang found an empty seat to sit down. A few entrepreneurs there looked at him with surprise, as Qin Yang was very young, and none of them knew him, but no one asked much.

At this time, all eyes were on Xu Mengjie on stage.

"Hello, everyone, I'm Xu Mengjie. It's an honor to participate in this charity auction event and make a small contribution to the children in the mountainous areas."

Xu Mengjie smiled slightly at the audience full of entrepreneurs and then placed a rosewood box she was holding onto the display table.

"I wonder what Miss Xu Mengjie has brought us this time?"

The female host asked.

"This is a pearl necklace. It was a gift from my father when I first debuted, and it holds great significance to me. However, if it can serve a more meaningful purpose, like helping children in the mountainous regions access education without worrying about tuition, and providing them with a nourishing free lunch, its value will be even greater."

Xu Mengjie said with a smile.

As she spoke, Xu Mengjie lifted her slender hand and opened the rosewood box.

The spotlight also focused over, illuminating the rosewood box.

"Wow, what a beautiful pearl necklace; each pearl is full and sparkling. It's amazing that Miss Xu Mengjie is auctioning such a precious item. She truly has a generous heart. On behalf of the children in the mountainous areas, I thank Miss Xu Mengjie."

The female host's eyes sparkled as she said.

Once those words fell, the audience responded with enthusiastic applause.

Generally, in such charity auctions, it's the entrepreneurs who bid and make the substantial donations, while invited celebrities bring meaningful items for auction. It's quite rare for celebrities to auction truly valuable possessions.

"This pearl necklace is quite valuable. Miss Xu Mengjie, at what price shall we start the bidding?"

The female host asked.

"Let's start at 680,000. A pair of lucky numbers, and I hope the entrepreneurs will have smooth business and prosperity."

Xu Mengjie smiled slightly and said.

Although the distance was a bit far, with Qin Yang's sharp vision, he could tell that the pearl necklace was worth much more than 680,000.

"Alright, we'll start the bidding for this pearl necklace at 680,000. To all the CEOs and lovely ladies, if you fancy this necklace, don't be shy about placing your bids. The auction begins!"

The female host said with a smile.

"880,000."

"960,000."

"One million..."

"..."

The moment the female host's words fell, the wealthy patrons began placing higher bids, and the price quickly exceeded one million.

Despite the entrepreneurs' substantial wealth, in such charity events, they typically donate tens of thousands, amounting to millions over an evening.

However, the pearl necklace itself was quite valuable, so even if these entrepreneurs bought it back, they wouldn't face a loss.

Moreover, since it was a gift from Xu Mengjie's father, anything given by her father was undoubtedly valuable.

After surpassing one million, the price continued to rise swiftly, soon exceeding two million and eventually three million.

"3.2 million."

"3.5 million..."

"..."

The price of this pearl necklace continued to climb, obviously not stopping at three or four million.

In the front row under the stage, seven or eight of the most prestigious entrepreneurs from Jiangnan Province were seated, with Xu Xinghan sitting in the middle. Behind him stood a young man and woman, both with a restrained aura.

Beside Xu Xinghan sat an affluent-looking middle-aged man.

"Mr. Xu, your girl is even auctioning off the pearl necklace you gave her."

The affluent middle-aged man said with a cheerful smile.
