Chapter 128 [128] It’s not my fault that I’m pretty
When Ye Feng and Xu Jingxin arrived at the Sotheby's auction house, it was already crowded with people.

After showing the invitation card that Chen Qiushan gave him, the security guard immediately let Ye Feng in respectfully even though he was in dishevel.

After all, what Chen Qiushan gave him was a diamond VIP invitation card.

With this invitation card, Ye Feng can ask the auction house to arrange a top-level box.

However, going into the top box or something like that would be too high-profile.

Ye Feng came here today just to take pictures of the fragments of the treasure map and didn't want to get into any trouble.

So he took Xu Jingxin and found a seat in the corner.

But because Xu Jingxin's appeal was so strong, even though she was sitting in the corner, she still attracted many people to look back.

"Oh, I shouldn't have brought you here." Ye Feng couldn't help but complain.

"Blame me? It's not my fault that I'm pretty." Xu Jingxin felt very aggrieved.

"Then is it still my fault? I'm not your father." Ye Feng replied casually.

"How dare you take advantage of me? You want a fight, right?" Xu Jingxin raised her little fist and was about to hit him.

"Sorry, I was wrong, haha..." Ye Feng dodged quickly.

Just as the two were playing, a handsome man suddenly walked up to them.

"Miss, have we met somewhere before?" When the man came over, he stared at Xu Jingxin with a frivolous look.

Xu Jingxin regained her composure and said, "This kind of pick-up tactics of yours is already eight hundred years old, right?"

The man gave what he thought was a charming smile, "It turns out I flirted with you eight hundred years ago. No wonder you look so familiar."

"Hello, my name is Li Hongyi, nice to meet you again."

As he said this, he extended his hand.

Xu Jing did not shake hands with him, but just looked at him coldly, "Is there anything you need? If not, please go away, thank you."

The smile on Li Hongyi's face did not diminish at all.

"I just feel that it is unbearable to let such a beautiful lady like you sit here."

"I happen to have a VIP box on the second floor. We can drink red wine while attending the auction. What do you say?"

Xu Jingxin deliberately took Ye Feng's arm and said, "I think this place is pretty good."

Li Hongyi looked at Ye Feng with disdain, "A beautiful woman like you should find a man who is worthy of you. Instead of finding a boyfriend who is just some loser. He is not worthy of you."

Xu Jingxin's pretty face sank, "Who are you calling a waste?"

Li Hongyi sneered at Ye Feng, "If he can let his girlfriend sit here, what else can he be but a loser? I bet he can't afford any of the things here tonight."

Ye Feng was wearing a tattered suit at this time and looked a little disheveled.

Xu Jingxin snorted coldly, "You look down on people with your eyes."

Li Hongyi was not angry, but looked at her provocatively, "Then do you dare to make a bet with me?"

Xu Jingxin did not give in, "What are you betting on?"

Li Hongyi showed a lecherous smile on his face, "Let's bet on whether he can successfully bid for an item tonight. If he fails to bid once, then you come with me tonight."

Xu Jingxin smiled imperceptibly and looked straight at him, "What if he took the photo?"

Li Hongyi looked at Ye Feng with contempt, "If he can take one picture, I will kowtow to him in front of everyone here and run naked outside."

After saying that, he quickly added, "But the prerequisite is that he has to pay for the photo himself. If you pay for it on his behalf, you will lose."

"How about it? Do you dare to bet?"

A smile gradually appeared on Xu Jingxin's face. "Okay, I'll agree on his behalf." Her smile was so beautiful that Li Hongyi was immediately dazed.

This further strengthened his confidence in getting her.

"In that case, let's ask Mr. Chen Qiushan from Sotheby's Auction House to be a witness for us."

Fearing that Xu Jingxin would go back on her word, Li Hongyi hurriedly asked his men to go backstage and find Chen Qiushan.

When Chen Qiushan saw Ye Feng, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face, and he was about to step forward to say hello.

However, Ye Feng already understood Xu Jingxin's plan, and immediately shook his head slightly at him.

Chen Qiushan immediately understood and turned to look at Li Hongyi, "Are you sure you want to make this bet?"

Li Hongyi nodded firmly, "This matter concerns my reputation, please ask Mr. Chen to be a witness for us."

Chen Qiushan looked at him with a stupid look in his eyes, "Okay, then I will be a witness for you. If anyone dares to refuse to fulfill the bet, don't blame me for being rude."

"Of course!"

Li Hongyi smiled proudly and sat down next to Ye Feng.

Chen Qiushan said nothing more and turned back to the backstage.

At eight o'clock sharp, the auction officially began.

The first lot, a Qing Dynasty cloisonné enamel, had a starting price of 100,000 yuan.

A fight immediately broke out at the scene.

It was eventually bought by a wealthy businessman from another place for two million yuan.

The auction had just begun and there was such fierce competition, which immediately ignited the atmosphere in the venue.

The next few lots were also sold at high prices.

However, Ye Feng remained calm and had no intention of taking any action.

Li Hongyi looked at him with a sneer on his face, "Boy, the things behind are getting more and more expensive. If you don't take action now, you will have no chance."

Ye Feng chuckled and ignored him.

Just then, a new item was put on the stage for auction.

A purple clay teapot from the late Qing Dynasty.

"The starting price is 20."

As the auctioneer finished speaking.

Immediately, someone offered: "Two million."

"Wow..."

The whole venue immediately became noisy.

The starting price of this purple clay teapot was 20 yuan, but it was directly raised to 200 million yuan.

Where did this stupid young man come from?
How can you bid like that?

Everyone looked back.

Ye Feng raised his hand with a smile on his face.

He looked determined to win.
