God! ...

Chapter 261: 2 Billion!

There must be something fishy going on when things seem unpredictable.

Qin Yao keenly sensed that something was amiss.

After some deep thought, a certain possibility came to her mind, and her face darkened.

Seeing this, Shen Lang shrank back and didn't dare to say a word, and moved his buttocks to the side on his own.

However, what Qin Yao found most unbearable was that even though she saw through the trickery, she had no power to stop it and could only watch helplessly.

"The name of the eldest son of the Su family is really useful. Just the name alone can intimidate so many people."

"You think 'survival of the fittest' is a joke? Those people have money and power; they can get things done with just a few words. I'm so envious!"

"Looks like this company is theirs now. No hotheads should dare to make an offer, right?"

......

Just when everyone thought the matter was over, a very discordant voice came from behind them.

"1.2 billion!"

The sound shattered the silence of the scene almost instantly, leaving countless people stunned and prompting them to search for the source of the sound. Ultimately, countless eyes fell on the third floor of the auction house.

The voice came from inside the private room, but no one could tell who it was from the tone of the voice.

To respect the privacy of important guests, the auction organizers altered the microphone's sound, making it sound like a little girl's voice, but it was actually a hairy-chested man.

In addition, the balcony has a special thin gauze that allows people inside to see outside, but people outside cannot see inside, which makes everyone even more curious.

"Damn, that's really something! They actually dare to show such disrespect to the Shen family... no, they dare to be so blatantly disrespectful to the Su family. Just who has the guts to do that?"

"Speaking of which, the person sitting in the upper private compartment isn't an ordinary person either; they're probably a big shot, right?"

"Look, Young Master Shen's face has changed. He probably didn't expect things to turn out this way."

......

Although the auction didn't go as planned, it seems like there's going to be some interesting things to watch today.

Meanwhile, Shen Xukun's expression turned truly ugly. His previous polite and smiling demeanor was completely gone, as if he had become a different person in a short period of time.

I thought everything would be over after I played Su Chaofeng, but I never expected that there would be someone who didn't know what was good for them and dared to bid!

He stared intently at the private room on the third floor, and after only a few breaths, he raised the price again.

"1.25 billion!"

This time, he hoped the other party could see his determination and also had some sense of propriety.

However, no sooner had he called out the price than the sounds from inside the private room began to emanate incessantly.

"1.3 billion!"

"1.35 billion!"

"1.4 billion!"

......

"Two billion!"

What was supposed to be a one-sided auction has now turned into a protracted battle.

Prices soared, quickly exceeding Qin Yao's estimates. Meanwhile, no matter how much Shen Xukun raised his bid, Ye Feng's price remained exactly 50 million more.

With the price already reaching two billion, everyone present was stunned.

Putting aside whether the auction company is actually worth that much money, the fact that they're sticking to the Shen family is already incredibly audacious, considering they have the Su family backing them!

In other words, this is not in front of Su Chaofeng; it's a slap in Su Chaofeng's face!

"When did Zhonghai acquire such a formidable general? Could it be someone from the Jiang family? Only they possess this strength!"

"Impossible. Jiang Weizhi greeted Su Chaofeng at the banquet earlier, addressing him as 'Brother Su' repeatedly. How could he possibly be here to snatch these things?"

"Could it be some big shot from out of town? But that doesn't make sense. Why would a big shot from out of town buy something like this? He'd have to be crazy."

......

There were all sorts of guesses at the scene, but no one could guess correctly.

Shen Xukun had lost his previous composure and was no longer interested in who the other person was; his lips were just twitching.

This price was already beyond his means, and if he continued, he would have no choice but to give up.

Damn it, didn't this bastard hear who was standing behind him?

Why do I keep going against myself, so reckless and foolish!

Even if I cursed it a hundred or a thousand times in my heart, the problem was right in front of me and had to be solved.

So Shen Xukun directly clasped his hands in a fist salute towards the private room on the third floor and said, "I wonder which big shot is inside. I wonder if you could spare me this favor today. If you can, I will definitely pass on this kindness to Young Master Su when I get back."

"I will definitely host a banquet in person another day to properly thank you!"

He knew he didn't have that kind of influence, so he subtly implied Su Chaofeng in his words.

Although they lowered their stance, everyone knew it was just to save face and put on a show so that neither side would lose face when the other party backed down.

Everyone nodded, feeling somewhat impressed. Although Shen Xukun was young, he was quite good at dealing with people.

Having already received this much information, it seems the big shot in the third-floor private room should back down.

Inside the private room, Su Yiqing suppressed her laughter, while Ye Feng also let out a cold smile as he calmly spoke into the microphone.

"Who...do you think you are, to deserve my respect?"

"Don't even mention you, even if Su Chaofeng came in person, he wouldn't have the right!"

hiss!

Everyone present gasped in shock, their eyes widening in disbelief.

Good grief, not only did he not give Shen Xukun face, but in the end this guy was just a bully using someone else's power. But what does it mean that the second half of his sentence also insulted Su Chaofeng?

"Who on earth is this? How dare they be so audacious as to disregard the Su family's dignity and even humiliate them?"

"Good heavens! Even if it were the Jiang family, we'd have to give them face. The people in this private room are even more powerful than the Jiang family!"

"What exactly happened? This person is either incredibly capable or a madman. No one would dare to do something like this!"

......

People speculated endlessly, both shocked and curious.

Ultimately, everyone was just there to watch the show, but Shen Xukun's expression froze. From the moment he announced the Su family's name until now, everything had been beyond his expectations.

The people in the private room seemed determined to go against him, determined not to let him have a good time.

He quickly composed himself and looked over with a cold gaze.

"Sir, I can pretend I didn't hear what you just said. Young Master Su is a direct descendant of the Su family in the capital, with connections everywhere. If I were to inform them of this matter, the consequences would be..."

Since treating them with courtesy isn't working, we'll have to find another way.

Even if the people in this private room have some influence, if they really offend the Su family, a clash between them over just one company would definitely be a losing proposition.

He wanted to force Ye Feng to compromise in this way!

However, a dignified voice rang out again from inside the private room.

"I told you, Su Chaofeng isn't qualified. If he's unhappy, he can come find me at Dazehu Manor!"
