Then, an elegant female staff member handed Zhou Qi the hairpin. Zhou Qi signed a check as payment without hesitation, and then handed the hairpin to Li Jiaxin in person, smiling and saying, "I like the bow tie you gave me very much. This can be considered a return gift."

Li Jiaxin blinked in surprise, then took the unexpected gift, her heart full of gratitude.

Li Jiaxin touched the hairpin lightly, and its texture was beyond imagination, more charming than what she saw on the big screen. Today she simply put her hair into a bun without any decoration, but she didn't expect Zhou Qi to spend 150 million to buy this hairpin for her.

Thinking of this, Li Jiaxin put the hairpin on her head with a smile, turned around and asked Zhou Qi: "Does it look good?" Zhou Qi nodded and praised: "Very beautiful." At this moment, the source and price of the gift became irrelevant, because it was given by Zhou Qi, and her heart was filled with unprecedented sweetness.

Seeing this, Huo Weiting's eyes flashed with displeasure. He tried to interrupt and said, "Jiaxin, this kind of ordinary thing is not suitable for you at all. If you like it, I can give you something better." But Li Jiaxin ignored him and her attention was completely focused on the new host - the legend in the entertainment industry, Chow Yun-fat.

Fa Ge greeted the audience's applause with a smile, thanked Zhou Qi, and revealed the real cost of buying the hairpin: not 100 million, but 150 million. This number shocked everyone. What was the extra 50 million for?

As the microphone was handed to Zhou Qi, Fa Ge joked about the hostess' reaction when she saw the check, which caused laughter in the audience. When all eyes were focused on Zhou Qi again, he explained that the additional 30 million was his personal support for charity, because the hairpin called "Angel Heart" itself was worth 120 million, and he didn't want to disappoint the donor's kindness.

Is it authentic?

Angel Heart?

Many people around sneered and thought to themselves: This trick is too old-fashioned. They will do anything to attract attention.

"Just blow it," someone muttered.

Huo Weiting was not to be outdone: "People who have never seen the world are easily deceived. When they see a gem, they say it is the Angel's Heart. It sounds nice."

However, Zhou Qi just smiled and said calmly: "No matter what others say, I only follow my heart."

He does not intend to make a profit from this, he just wants to make charity activities more pure, not to repeat the same mistakes, not to become a laughing stock, and not to disappoint people.

Fa Ge was moved by Zhou Qi's confidence and boldly proposed: "Mr. Zhou, can you invite the lady wearing the Angel's Heart to the stage so that we can appreciate its beauty again?"

Wearing that hairpin, Li Jiaxin has become the center of attention. She was a little nervous, but when Zhou Qi nodded to her, she felt extremely supported and encouraged.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Li Jiaxin walked gracefully to the center of the stage. The lights focused on her, and the angel heart on her head emitted a charming red light, which complemented her beauty and was dazzling.

Three well-known jewelers walked onto the stage at the same time. Although they had noticed the unusualness of the hairpin before, they had not paid much attention to it after hearing the host say it was a cheap product. Now, after hearing Zhou Qi's words, their curiosity was ignited again.

After carefully examining the hairpin, the three experts showed surprised expressions on their faces and nodded to each other. Brother Fa handed over the microphone, and one of them said: "After the three of us have identified it, it is indeed a genuine product. Mr. Zhou's eyesight is indeed extraordinary!"

"Yes, it is indeed worth about 150 million. The extra amount paid by Mr. Zhou is undoubtedly a great contribution to charity."

This sentence was like a bombshell, and everyone present was shocked - it turned out that all this was true.

In Hong Kong's jewelry circle, the words of these three people are almost golden rules.

Li Zihong smiled and clapped, praising: "You are very good at sticking to your sincerity!" He made no secret of his approval of Zhou Qi.

The applause was like thunder, echoing throughout the venue. Huo Weiting's face was as if covered by a dark cloud, and his heart was full of confusion and resentment. How could a street stall product become a priceless treasure? This was simply the biggest irony for him. The applause seemed to have turned into countless invisible slaps, hitting his self-esteem hard.

Fa Ge's praises poured out like a stream, making everyone re-examine Zhou Qi. Being able to identify the genuine product and dare to buy it with a large sum of money, this vision and courage are admirable. In comparison, Huo Weiting's behavior seemed so naive and short-sighted.

Huo Weiting felt the strange looks from those around him, as if he had become the target of everyone's criticism. His cheeks flushed with shame and he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

Tang Jiachen could not bear the pressure and quietly moved a few steps to the side. He also did not expect such an outcome - the eldest son of the Huo family was defeated so easily by Zhou Qi and had no advantage from the beginning.

The auction continued, and Li Jiaxin returned to her seat in a happy mood. When Zhou Qi gave her the precious hairpin, she was extremely surprised; now that she knew its true value, she felt that there was a special meaning behind it. "Angel's Heart", the name itself is full of mysterious charm.

She noticed that many women cast envious eyes at her, which made her heart full of joy. At the same time, these ladies looked at Zhou Qi with admiration and curiosity. One hundred and fifty million, he bought it immediately, such a boldness and young and handsome image made him the focus of attention at the scene. Many people couldn't help thinking, how nice it would be if they were standing in Li Jiaxin's position at this moment.

In a luxurious banquet hall, Li Jianan said jokingly, "Mr. Huo, you just said you would give my sister a hairpin that is 10,000 times more expensive than this, right? That's a pretty big sum."

He rubbed his hands and added with a smile: "A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. When will you fulfill this promise? When the time comes, you don't have to deliver it in person. I will definitely help my sister get it."

A young master of Huo Weiting's status would rarely have the opportunity to be teased. Li Jianan was secretly pleased and decided to strike while the iron was hot, following the principle of "not letting others off when they are right" that he had learned from Zhou Qi, and teased the other party further.

Huo Weiting's mouth twitched when he heard this. He did say that, but now it was difficult to respond. If he didn't admit it, it would be like losing the integrity that a noble should have; if he admitted it, not to mention himself, even if he sacrificed his entire family, it would not be enough to raise that astronomical figure. Curse back directly? That would be tantamount to declaring war on the Li family.
