Affectionate beyond ninety thousand miles

"Well, I haven't been free since Celine came back. Finally, I'm not so busy today, so I came here with her. After the meeting, we will have lunch together. It can be regarded as us cleaning up for her."

Chen Lingjue came up with a reason that he had thought of long ago, and said it very calmly.

Wen Nanning quickly glanced at Zhou Sailin, then nodded calmly.

The three entered the auction together.

It was the first time for Wen Nanning to attend such an occasion. The auction room was crowded with people, and there were several rows of consignors sitting on high places. It seemed that there were a lot of auction items today, which attracted so many people.

Zhou Sailin explained to her, "Those clients are bidding for people outside the venue. You can see that they have a phone in hand, and they communicate with the bosses on the spot through the phone."

It turned out to be the case.

Wen Nanning understood and found it interesting.

As soon as they sat down, the bidding for the first lot had already started.

Zhou Sailin came over with her ear, "The painting I want to shoot is still in the middle, please wait patiently."

"it is good."

It turns out that there are not only paintings, but also other works of art and jewelry.

Wen Nanning looked at it with great interest. Anyway, she couldn't afford to take the auction. It was quite interesting to watch other people bid one by one. After a lot was competed, the highest bidder won. Some people were happy and others were disgraced.

She took it easy until Chen Lingjue raised his sign.

Only then did her eyes move to the screen next to the auctioneer. It was a ruby ​​from Lanka with a reserve price of 500 million and a starting price of [-].

As the auctioneer dropped down, fewer and fewer people were holding placards, but Chen Lingjue persisted.

The price has risen to 2000 million, but there are still people competing with Chen Lingjue.

She sneaked a glance at him. Compared to her, Chen Lingjue was more at ease and quite calm.

He even handed the sign to her and said calmly, "Then you hold the sign for me."

Wen Nanning wanted to refuse, but it was too exciting to watch other people shouting prices, she couldn't help being curious and agreed, so every time the auctioneer called for a price, Wen Nanning raised his sign after receiving his gaze.

She was very nervous throughout the whole process, and put her other hand in front of her body, holding it tightly until the last time she raised the placard. There was no longer any competition. The auctioneer made a deposit, and the transaction was 500 million yuan. Chen Lingjue won the auction.

Wen Nanning let out a long breath of relief.

With a confident smile on his face, he turned his face and glanced at Wen Nanning, "Is this feeling irritating?"

Wen Nanning nodded.

It's too exciting, okay?
Fortunately, it's not my own money.

Wen Nanning thought that with her psychological endurance, she probably wouldn't be able to participate in the auction, otherwise she would have a heart attack and die.

After a piece of auction was over, after a slight commotion, the scene returned to silence. After a failed auction, the painting that Zhou Sailin wanted to shoot entered the auction stage.

This is a work of a French painter living abroad in the 20th century. His descendants commissioned the gallery to take this painting back, but set an upper limit.When Zhou Sailin saw that the painting's starting price was 500 million and [-] yuan, she couldn't help but frowned.

Wen Nanning felt her nervousness, and reached out to hold her hand to express comfort.

Zhou Sailin shook her head and said in a low voice, "This painting is estimated at 1000 million, and the gallery wants me to take it within 2000 million to 500 million, which is a bit dangerous."

Zhou Sailin has rich experience in auctions, she said so, it is really dangerous, and Wen Nanning couldn't help becoming nervous.

Probably because it was the home of artworks, there were more people holding placards than jewelry. Every time a price was called, Wen Nanning would subconsciously look at it.The price has risen to 500 million, and Zhou Sailin's forehead is already sweating.

There were only three people holding placards left, and when Zhou Sailin called out 800 million, the auctioneer was already repeating the price.

Wen Nanning clutched her chest, looking nervously at the auctioneer,
A smile bloomed on her face, "900 million, bid on the spot."

At this moment, the one outside the field has given up, so only two people are left to continue competing.

Zhou Sailin had no choice but to follow the price, 2000 million.

The other party followed closely, adding 50.

Zhou Sailin was about to die of anger, and she glared at the man suddenly, wanting to see if her colleagues were robbing him.

Wen Nanning followed her line of sight and couldn't look past it. At first, he felt that the man's back looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it until the bid had reached 500 million, and the man turned his face to look here.

Wen Nanning was stunned.

Ji Zhonghuai?
Why is he here?

Still bidding for the same work with Zhou Sailin?
Wen Nanning withdrew her gaze, frowned, her mind was a little confused.

Chen Lingjue also recognized Ji Zhonghuai, even if he wasn't familiar with him, after all, he and Ji Yanxi grew up together and met him once or twice.

He's back already?

Chen Lingjue subconsciously looked at Wen Nanning.

However, at such a moment, Zhou Sailin continued.

Chen Lingjue frowned and reminded, "Celine, the upper limit has been exceeded, and it won't do me any good if you keep fighting like this."

If the upper limit is exceeded, the buyer may not recognize it, and the excess can only be borne by oneself.

Zhou Sailin naturally knew, but this auction was the last job she was entrusted with, she didn't want to give up so easily.

She shook her head, "Just don't want this commission."

However, when the price reached 800 million, Zhou Sailin no longer insisted.

Not to mention the commission at this price, I paid for it myself.

In the end Ji Zhonghuai took the picture.

Zhou Sailin's face was not very good-looking, and she was no longer in the mood to stay any longer. She stood up and walked out of the auction site from the side, Wen Nanning followed closely behind her.

The two stood at the door waiting for Chen Lingjue.

At this time Ji Zhonghuai came out, followed by a woman, wearing a plain cheongsam, her face was exquisitely made up, but it didn't quite match the cheongsam.

Wen Nanning originally thought that Ji Zhonghuai hadn't seen her, and was hesitating whether to go up to say hello, but she didn't want Ji Zhonghuai to walk straight towards her.

"Nanning."

Ji Zhonghuai nodded to Zhou Sailin first, and then called Wen Nanning.

Zhou Sailin looked over suspiciously, Wen Nanning was a little embarrassed, and called out in a low voice, "Uncle."

"Is this your friend who bid together just now?"

Ji Zhonghuai glanced at Zhou Sailin and asked.

Wen Nanning nodded, not understanding what he meant.

"Is this painting important to her?"

Wen Nanning hesitated for a moment, then nodded again.

"This painting is also very important to me. I'm afraid I can't cede it. I'm really sorry." Ji Zhonghuai and Ji Yanxi had a faint smile on their three-point similar faces.

Wen Nanning felt that if she said that she could only figure out Ji Junli to a point, but she couldn't figure out the man in front of her at all.

He didn't need to greet her, but he came anyway, wouldn't it be better to leave quietly?

To put it bluntly, it's a bit of a good idea to get cheap.

But Zhou Sailin didn't know him either.

Could it be that it was aimed at her?
Thinking of this possibility, Wen Nanning was even more puzzled.

She didn't seem to offend him, did she?

Zhou Sailin was still angry, seeing this man showing off in front of her eyes, she couldn't help but want to lose her temper, but when she thought that Wen Nanning knew him, she forcibly suppressed her anger.

Wen Nanning really didn't know how to answer his words, so she could only stand there and smile awkwardly.

Unexpectedly, Ji Zhonghuai suddenly said, "Although it is important, if you can leave Yanxi, I can give you this painting."

Wen Nanning raised her head suddenly, her eyes were full of shock and doubt. She looked at him, and then at the woman next to him.

I didn't know what the reaction was for a while.

"Uncle Ji, did Yanxi ask you to say this?"

Wen Nanning turned her face away and looked at Chen Lingjue who had a half-smile, feeling a sense of absurdity in her heart.

Things seem to be turning around.

It used to be Xu Shihan,

Now it's my turn.
