Chapter 83 Ancestor, you are the image ambassador
Lin Xi asked in confusion: "What's wrong with him? Why can't he get out?"
Shen Yi looked at Xiao Yan, who also had a question mark on his face, and twitched his lips, "For him to be a costume drama idol and say something like this, it's not typical that he didn't step out of the script. He came all the way back from a certain dynasty. , the soul is still left there and cannot come back."
Xiao Yan took a breath, "Brother Shen..."
Lin Xi shook his head helplessly. Shen Yi was such a bitch. He was really venomous.
Xiao Yan was also helpless towards Shen Yize. In order not to offend this god, the best way at this time was to shut up.
After the auction started, Lin Xi saw Chu Xinyi coming down from the stage and sitting in the first row with an elegant smile.
"Mr. Shen, did you take the wrong seat? With your status, you have to sit next to someone in the first row, right?" Lin Xi leaned forward slightly and whispered.
"You want me to come over." Shen Yi frowned, his voice cold.
"Of course, if you sit here and affect the temperature, I will feel cold."
"Hmph, it's good to be cold. I'm just worried that someone will get hot-headed."
Lin Xi glared at him and ignored him.
By this time, the first collection had been sold at the auction.
Xiao Yan on the other side patted Lin Xi, "Idol, if you want to take that painting later, I suggest you wait until the end to avoid others following suit and the price going up."
Lin Xi thought it was reasonable and praised: "Okay, you, you can't tell that you are a bit of a thief."
Xiao Yan smiled proudly and said, "You don't even want to know what my family does. You have been hearing about it since you were a child. It's hard to understand."
Lin Xi secretly gave him a thumbs up, but of course this action did not escape Shen Yize's attention.
"Be honest, where are all the little tricks?"
Someone threw a cold knife at him, Lin Xi glanced at him and ignored him.
As the number of auction items in the album decreased one by one, Lin Xi straightened his back when the host took out the green landscape piece.
The painting is not by a well-known painter, but by an unknown artist.
Participating bidders can raise their placards for an additional 100,000 yuan, and the starting price is 500,000 yuan. The price of such a large painting is relatively not high.
But the most important part of this painting is the brushstrokes and artistic conception. It feels like a person is walking in the painting. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is immersive.
As soon as the painting came up, there were quite a few people interested, and the price soared from 500,000 to 2.6 million.
At this time, Shen Yize's phone rang. He glanced at Lin Xi and turned around to answer the phone.
Lin Xi obviously didn't even look at him. She was feeling guilty because of the price of the auction item.
If she keeps shouting like this, her pocket will be drained, and she may have to use the medical expenses left for her mother.
But seeing that the last person holding the sign was Chu Xinyi, Lin Xi instantly raised the number plate in his hand.
There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so grab it first.
"three million."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the spotlight of the venue and the eyes of everyone in the room were focused on her.
After Chu Xinyi saw clearly that the person holding the sign was Lin Xi, she raised her eyes and said, "Three and a half million."
"Three million and eight hundred thousand."
"four million."
"Four and a half million."
"five million."
The people present watched the two women arguing like this. At this time, their interest was no longer in the painting. Those who knew the relationship between the two sat back and watched the show.
People who don’t know want to see who will win.
The rational people on the other hand were clicking their tongues. Five million dollars for such a painting, is it crazy?
Zhao Jinyan sat aside and couldn't stand it anymore. He scanned the whole place and didn't see Shen Yize.
Where did this guy go, leaving his two women behind to cause trouble?
Unable to find Shen Yize, he called Chu Xinyi.
"Ancestor, you are an image ambassador. If you continue to call me that, the charity meeting will turn into a Shura field!"
Chu Xinyi understood the implication of Zhao Jin's words. It was really hard to call Lin Xi anymore when so many people looked at her.
She originally thought she was good-looking, so she spent two hundred yuan to gain a good reputation, but it almost backfired.
Shen Yueru felt unhappy when she saw that the person holding the sign was Lin Xi. This woman spent a lot of money without blinking an eye. It felt so good.
Charity meeting, how could you be sitting here without donations?
Shen had already donated a large amount, and now Lin Xi, like a fool, directly bid five million for an unknown painting.
Shen Yueru said angrily: "Tingting, call your brother and ask him to take care of Lin Xi."
After hearing this, Shen Tingting immediately called Shen Yize, but she couldn't get through.
"Five million once, will anyone raise the price? Five million twice, friends at the scene still have time to think about it. Five million three times, three, two, one, deal done!"
After the final decision, Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
He was instantly discouraged and said, "Five million, if she wants to buy it, my mother's medical expenses will basically be gone."
"Please invite our beautiful lady on the 22nd to come on stage and pay on the spot. Every penny earned from the auction will be used as charity to support compatriots in need."
Lin Xi felt like he was being roasted on a fire. Not only was it embarrassing that so many people couldn't afford the money, it was too tasteless.
When he was worried, Xiao Yan smiled and said: "Idol, Mrs. Shen, you are so happy, come up, that painting is yours!"
Hearing the name "Mrs. Shen", Lin Xi suddenly became enlightened and her eyes sparkled.
He picked up his bag and went on stage, swiped his card to pay, left a message to register, took the painting and left, his movements were quite handsome.
After making the call, Shen Yi saw the consumption records on his mobile phone and couldn't help but wonder, what did this woman take a picture of when he answered the call?
After paying the money, Lin Xi went to the bathroom feeling refreshed. As soon as she came out of the bathroom, she saw Chu Xinyi standing at the door. What kind of posture was she waiting for her?
Really... being chased by a vicious dog!
Even the words "enemies are on a narrow road" are not enough to express Chu Xinyi's current behavior.
"Miss Chu, do you have any advice?"
Lin Xi glanced at her, then turned on the faucet and washed her hands nonchalantly.
"Lin Xi, did you target me on purpose today?"
Lin Xi sneered, "You really think highly of yourself, but Shen Yi cares about you, so you think you are the center of the universe?"
"But your repeated bidding ruined my plan." Chu Xinyi's voice couldn't help but become a few decibels louder.
"I don't know what your plans are, but I think our family Shen Yize also needs a good reputation. After all, he himself said that businessmen value reputation very much."
Lin Xi glared at her disdainfully and prepared to leave.
But Chu Xinyi didn't plan to end it here.
"I haven't targeted you, so why are you pressing on me?"
Lin Xi's face suddenly darkened, "Didn't you target me? Then Miss Chu, please explain that Yunxi Villa gave me sleeping pills in my wine. Who are you planning to give me to?"
Chu Xinyi's expression paused, "Lin Xi, speak with evidence, you can't just slap me with such a big label based on your imagination."
Lin Xi glared at her shamelessly, "I want evidence. Do you think you can still stand here so gloriously?"
Chu Xinyi immediately relaxed and said, "Since there is no evidence, don't come out to scare people. As for who to give you to, come over and I can tell you openly."
