Lost and Spy

Chapter 44 Beauty Necklace
"five hundred!"

"Six hundred!"

"one thousand!"

In just a few minutes, this three-layer pearl necklace inlaid with rubies has been quickly bid up to [-] oceans.

This has surpassed Ji Yunqing's gold watch.

Everyone has to please Cai Xuefei, and more importantly, this was worn by Mrs. Qiangwei.

Ji Yunqing was proud.

Before that, he had convened a so-called Shanghai Business Disaster Relief Charity Committee, which raised a total of 50 yuan in donations from Dechuan.

People from all walks of life in Shanghai also actively donated, another 30 yuan.

Plus this time, it's all his masterpiece.

"Three thousand! I will give out three thousand!"

It was He Qinhan who called out the price.

This is a very high price.

Immediately, the sound of competition was greatly reduced.

He Qinhan blinked at Ji Yunqing, and Ji Yunqing smiled slightly: "It is my duty to donate to the disaster victims, and this is Mrs. Qiangwei's favorite thing. Where is [-]? I'll give [-]!"

A low exclamation sounded.

Ten thousand is far more than the value of this pearl necklace itself.

Ji Yunqing is old, but her heart is not old. She has long coveted Madam Qiangwei's beauty, but she has never been able to start.

With such a good opportunity to please, how could Ji Yunqing not seize it?
Maybe, if Madam Qiangwei is happy, she might be able to give him a chance to kiss Fang Ze.

Ji Yunqing offered such a high price, coupled with his own power, he never dared to compete with him again.

"[-] oceans, Mr. Ji goes out to [-] oceans, is there anyone else bidding?" The host kept asking.

Who else will come out?Even if he gritted his teeth and offered another price, wouldn't he offend Ji Yunqing?
"Once in 1... twice in [-]..."

Just as the host was about to announce the success of Ji Yunqing's bidding, a voice sounded:
"Twenty thousand!"

All eyes were turned there.

It was a rather handsome, well-dressed young man.

Meng Shaoyuan!
Ji Yunqing's face turned gloomy.

Cai Xuefei's eyes also fell with interest on this young man whom he had just met in the elevator.

And in the eyes of countless celebrities, there is also a blazing light.

Young, handsome, and the key is more gold.

Who doesn't like a boy like this?

Meng Shaoyuan, who cares what other people think?

In another year, Sichuan will do everything in Sichuan to fight against Japan. The soldiers of the Sichuan army were bloodied in Shanghai, and they fought to the death in Songhu. Now that they are suffering, they have to give out a sum of money themselves as a way to express their respect to them in advance.

Besides, it's not bad to embarrass Ji Yunqing.

Anyway, I had offended Ji Yunqing a long time ago. When I returned to Nanjing, once the "Shengyitang" was under control, a head-on conflict was inevitable.

What are you afraid of now?
"Twenty thousand oceans, this gentleman offers twenty thousand oceans, is there anyone else bidding?"

The host's voice rose.

Ji Yunqing has always been greedy for money, and this Wan Dayang has already gritted his teeth in order to please the beauties. At this time, it would be unwilling to make him more than double the price.

"Twenty thousand oceans, the deal! Madam Qiangwei's necklace belongs to this gentleman!"

Amid the round of applause and countless envious eyes, the pearl necklace was handed over to Meng Shaoyuan.

An even more unexpected thing happened. Meng Shaoyuan came to Cai Xuefei with the necklace: "Madam, please accept this gift."

Cai Xuefei was not surprised at all: "Meng Gongzi, what does this mean?"

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said, "The sword is for the hero, and the necklace matches the beauty. The beauty is more suitable for this necklace than the lady."

Good boy, smart.

Many people with fast brains have already thought of Meng Shaoyuan's intentions.

Using [-] oceans to get Mrs. Qiangwei's heart is a good deal.

Cai Xuefei smiled slightly: "Then thank you very much. Xue Fei is inconvenient, please ask Mr. Meng to help Xue Fei put it on."

There was an uproar.

If I had known such a good treatment, I would have bought this necklace even if I went bankrupt!

Under the envious and jealous eyes of countless people, Meng Shaoyuan put the pearl necklace back on Cai Xuefei's neck.

There were bursts of good smelling fragrance, and I didn't know what brand of perfume Mrs. Qiangwei was using.

This charity auction raised a total of [-] donations.

Cai Xuefei whispered to Steward Qiu, but Steward Qiu immediately stood up and said loudly:

"My wife said that the people in Shanghai raised 30 yuan. Today, all the celebrities and wealthy businessmen here have only raised 20 yuan. Among them, Mr. Meng donated [-] yuan. We should feel ashamed. So my family Ma'am, I decided to make private contributions, round up a whole number, a total of [-] yuan, and transport it to the disaster area!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and suddenly the applause and cheers were thunderous.

Meng Shaoyuan was also clapping, and he was clapping very seriously.

Mrs. Qiangwei is a famous lady, but she is also a strange woman with chivalrous courage and courage.

No matter how rich you are, it is not easy to take out more than [-] oceans at once.

"well!"

He Qinhan was still worried about Ji Yunqing's displeasure, and took advantage of this opportunity to quickly say: "Mrs. Qiangwei, I can't wait for the boys. This charity auction is very happy and ended successfully. I announce that the Ball of Nations officially begins!"

Meng Shaoyuan has been paying attention to Ito Ayako.

During the donation auction, Ito Ayako shrank behind the crowd, indifferent, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth from time to time.

And when she heard that the Ball of Nations began, her eyes immediately lit up.

This woman's obsession with prom is evident.

Since it is the Ball of Nations, to choose the "Shanghai Dance King", it is natural to compare dance skills.

The first person to come up was Henry, who came out of the acrobatic troupe and was packaged as the "American Dance King".

When this man was in the United States, he was a playboy himself, and he appeared in various dance parties all year round. Later, he owed a lot of debt, so he went to China to pan for gold with the acrobatic troupe.

Dancing is his forte. He invited a lady he knew before to dance a "Vienna Waltz" with the accompaniment of the band.

This is a fast waltz, with a strong sense of rhythm and a gorgeous and elegant dance.

Coupled with the skillful cooperation between Henry and the lady, very good results were quickly achieved.

After a dance, there was a round of applause.

The lady was panting, but her face was full of peach blossoms, and she looked at Henry with radiant love.

Henry was triumphant, and this time the king of dance was himself.

The next thing is the British dance king, the Italian dance king, or the foxtrot, or the tango, in short, he used all his eighteen martial arts.

Ayako Ito in the crowd, along with the rhythm of the music, has been quietly touching the ground with her footsteps.

If at this time, someone can invite him to dance a song, that would be perfect.

Ito Ayako dances very well, but unfortunately, with that lousy old man Kong Jianshan, coupled with her special status and mission, she has never been able to dance heartily.

Suddenly, a voice sounded beside her:
"Miss, can I ask you to dance together?"
