C121 Auction

Qian Qing was in his arms and her voice was somewhat muffled, "I'm just afraid of embarrassing you and also afraid that you will be scolded."

Xiao Yi kissed her on the top of her head and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Yes." Qian Qing nodded lightly and held his waist tightly and asked, "Why did Miss Ann have that kind of expression when she talked about your brother?"

Xiao Yi could not help but laugh and asked, "What expression?"

Qian Qing looked at his smooth chin, "Just that kind of annoyance and that kind of expression with some displeasure."

"Did you observe it so carefully?" Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at her again with a cynical look.

Qian Qing saw his appearance and knew that he did not want to say anything. She did not ask anymore and just lightly leaned into his arms.

"This time, I want the whole world to know your identity." Xiao Yi thanked Qian Qing for being sensible and said softly.

"Yes!" Qian Qing nodded heavily and looked at him mischievously. "Make those who have ideas about you give up!"

"Okay, then I will leave this difficult task to you." Xiao Yi smiled and said, "In two days, let's go to the auction first."

Then he looked at the little girl in his arms, who was blinking her beautiful eyes. He suddenly remembered one thing: Qian Qing's birthday seemed to be coming soon.

On the 18th day, Xiao Yi brought Qian Qing, who was dressed like a little bear, to the largest auction in A City.

Qian Qing looked at the surrounding women who were all wearing dignified and elegant dresses, and then at her bloated body that was wearing quite a few heavy clothes. She lowered her head very embarrassingly.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yi looked at Qian Qing with amusement and put her hand on his arm.

"So embarrassing..." Qian Qing glared at him. "You liar."

Because she rarely attended such occasions, she was afraid of meeting someone she knew in this occasion. So in order not to embarrass Xiao Yi, she had been preparing the matching clothes that she would wear tonight. But when Xiao Yi saw it, he quickly threw the gown into the fitting room. He said in all seriousness, "The weather is so cold, no one will wear a gown."

Then he put on the fluffy coat for her. Seeing that she was white and tender like a little rabbit, he kissed her with satisfaction before taking her out.

Xiao Yi did not feel guilty after lying. Instead, he said confidently, "Those people are not afraid of the cold. You are different. You are weak. Besides, you already have me. Who are you wearing such beautiful clothes for?"

"That's not the problem." Qian Qing's face was red as she retorted, "Now I am very different!"

"It's fine. We are born with natural beauty. We can beat them without relying on clothes." Xiao Yi coaxed her and held her hand. "It is almost time. Let's go in."

Qian Qing was unwillingly held by him. She was a little nervous as she carefully sized up her surroundings.

When the person in charge at the door saw Xiao Yi, he immediately apologized to the person in front of him. He quickly walked over and said, "Young Master Xiao, you are here. Please come in."

Xiao Yi nodded and his expression returned to his usual arrogance.

"Are you still sitting in the same room as before?" Manager Wang asked respectfully.

"Yes, let's exchange the wine for some ginger tea." Xiao Yi instructed.

Manager Wang was stunned for a moment when he heard that. He quickly nodded and said, "Yes."

Then he heard Xiao Yi say to the girl beside him, "Drink more so that you don't catch a cold again."

Qian Qing was still angry with Xiao Yi because of the clothes. She pretended not to hear him and even snorted coldly.

Xiao Yi shook his head and looked at her lovingly. He patted her tender hands and continued to walk forward.

Manager Wang, who was at the side, still looked respectful and calm on the surface, but he was very excited in his heart. Could this be the legendary Miss Qian?

Everyone said that Young Master Xiao had withdrawn the marriage contract of Gu family for the sake of this beauty. There was even a rumor that Young Master Xiao had abandoned his position as the patriarch of Xiao family in order to marry this beauty.

Now that he saw Xiao Yi indulging and pampering Qian Qing, could it be that this rumor was true?

Thinking of this, his attitude towards Qian Qing became even more respectful.

Qian Qing curiously sized up the auction hall. In the middle of the beautifully decorated and vintage hall was a large platform. Around the platform, there were bodyguards standing guard. And upstairs, there were many private rooms which made it convenient for the aristocrats to see the auction items clearly.

Xiao Yi and Qian Qing were directly led to the center of the third floor, occupying the best room in the audience's field of vision.

Qian Qing curiously fiddled with the pearl curtain and forgot to be angry. She pulled Xiao Yi to stand in front of the wall of the room and said excitedly, "Are those the items that are going to be auctioned later?"

Xiao Yi smiled and said, Those are the items to be auctioned later." In a while, if you like anything, press this button."

Qian Qing smiled but did not say anything. Something that could be auctioned here must be very valuable. She did not want Xiao Yi to waste this money.

The two chatted for a while and the auction started.

Qian Qing looked at the treasures that were sent to the stage like flowing water and the shouts that came from each other. She suddenly felt that this was a completely different world to her.

After Xiao Yi bid for the pink diamond, he did not bid again. He just hugged Qian Qing and looked at the crowd below the stage with a bored expression as if they were competing to bid.

Qian Qing flipped through the list of auction items that were prepared for the auction. There were all kinds of items, but they all had a common characteristic. It was that they had a long history and were worth collecting.

But when she flipped to the last page, she was stunned.

The picture in the album was a golden bracelet. It was exquisitely carved and complicated. On the surface of the pure gold, there was a lifelike golden dragon wrapped around it. It had pearls in its mouth and was soaring in the clouds, looking majestic and majestic.

Xiao Yi saw Qian Qing's surprised expression and also looked at the bracelet in the album. He did not feel that there was anything special about it.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yi asked.

Qian Qing gently bit her lips and looked at Xiao Yi with some difficulty. "This seems to be the bracelet that my family lost..."

But she had never seen the Pearl Dragon Bracelet, so she was not sure if it was the family bracelet that her grandfather talked about.

Xiao Yi heard this and carefully sized up the bracelet. He discovered that although the bracelet's color was a little dark because it had been around for a long time, its quality did not hide its beauty. Its sculpting skills were superb and detailed. Every detail had been meticulously processed. It could be seen that the person who made this bracelet was very meticulous.

"Do you like it?" Xiao Yi asked with a smile.

Qian Qing hesitated and nodded, but then she looked at the base price. It was... one, ten, one hundred, one thousand. Ten thousand, one hundred thousand, one million!

Five million!

Five million for a bracelet?

He instantly shook his head. "I don't like it!"

Xiao Yi held her in his arms and kissed her forehead. He laughed and said, "You fool. You obviously like it so much, but you still pretend not to like it."

Qian Qing buried her face in his chest and felt very troubled in her heart. Somehow, she felt that this bracelet was the Pearl Dragon Bracelet that her grandfather had mentioned. But this was only her sixth sense. What if it wasn't? Wouldn't she spend five million to buy a useless bracelet?

But...

She peeked at the bracelet again and found it harder and harder to part with it. She really wanted to...

Xiao Yi saw Qian Qing's conflicted look and felt pitiful and hesitant. It really did not make people love her.

He laughed lightly, "Consider it my betrothal gift to you, okay?"

"But..." Qian Qing blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment. "I don't think I'm worth that much."

When Xiao Yi heard this, he smiled even more and bent down. He buried his face into her neck and laughed so hard that he trembled. Why was his woman so cute?

It was only five million. Even if it was not her family heirloom bracelet, it was worth it to buy her a smile.

Moreover, his little darling was so obedient. Even if it was fifty million, it was still worth it.

Qian Qing was so ruthlessly "mocked" by him that she flew into a rage out of humiliation and anger. She directly pushed him away and snorted coldly.

Xiao Yi smiled and hugged her, saying, "Alright, didn't I lie to you tonight? Even if I apologize to you, how about it?"

Qian Qing thought for a while and nodded in agreement. Her small face had a healthy pink color and her eyebrows curved into a smile. "Okay, then from now on, I am your person! Uncle Xiao!"

"Look at you, you idiot." Xiao Yi once again embraced her in his arms. His heart was sweet.

The two of them quarreled like this, and the auction soon came to an end. The beautiful female host on the stage revealed a mysterious smile, "After everyone's intense participation, this auction has come to an end. This treasure is the last treasure of this auction. Ladies and gentlemen, please take a good look."

The host lifted the red cloth covering the box and saw a simple golden bracelet appear in front of everyone's eyes.

For a moment, everyone discussed animatedly.

"Isn't this just an ordinary golden bracelet? How can it become the ultimate treasure?"

"Yeah, it doesn't look like anything special. How can there be a starting price of five million?"

"Let's hear how she introduced it first."

The beautiful host also heard the discussions of the crowd and smiled beautifully. A clear voice sounded: "Everyone quiet down. It's not too late to discuss after listening to my introduction. This treasure is a mysterious seller who entrusted our auction house to auction it. "

"And the origin of this bracelet is also very unusual. According to legend, this bracelet is a pair. The other bracelet has a phoenix carved on it, called the Nirvana Phoenix Bracelet. It is a treasure map with the Pearl Dragon Bracelet!"

As soon as these words came out, the voices of the people below became even louder.

"Treasure? Are you for real?"

"So what if it's true? Didn't we say we still need a phoenix bracelet? Only a dragon bracelet is of little value. "

"But it's not hard to find a phoenix bracelet with a dragon bracelet. After all, it's a treasure. Moreover, you have to know that this auction house never speaks empty words. I think this bracelet is not fake."

"What you say makes sense."

With that said, everyone became interested in this bracelet. After all, this was a treasure. If they really found it, then it would be a matter of making a fortune for their descendants.

Everyone looked at the Pearl Dragon Bracelet with fanatical eyes. They were all eager to give it a try.

Qian Qing, who was in the private room, looked at Xiao Yi with a blank face. Treasure? What treasure? Why didn't she know?

Xiao Yi looked at her adorable look and loved her even more. He smiled and said, "Looks like this time I picked up a treasure for free. This dowry is really generous."

Qian Qing was teased by him and slowly recovered her senses. Her small face was full of seriousness. "Why is there treasure? Why don't I know?"

"It might be a secret passed down from the family." Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Didn't you say that this bracelet was passed down from your family?"
