?Chapter 681: Chapter 440: Misunderstanding?_1 Chapter 681: Chapter 440: Misunderstanding?_1 Hearing Feng Chi bid, Feng Yi smiled with satisfaction.
They had teamed up to act in plays during their student days at the Feng Family and had fooled so many people. Being able to partner up under everyone’s noses for so many years, the cousins indeed shared an understanding.
He regretted saying two and a half million the moment it left his mouth; the number sounded a touch awkward.
He hadn’t thought much about it when he spoke and blurted it out casually. He figured others would quickly surpass that bid without giving it much thought.
Unexpectedly, there was a sudden silence.
Fortunately, Feng Chi had just picked up the slack on his end.
“Three million,”
Feng Yi called out.
It wasn’t specifically to drive the price down; the situation was just too awkward. Everyone knew Feng Chi was on his side, and a slight boost would do—no need to overdo it. He could casually bid on another item later.
In the end, Feng Yi won the black diamond for three million, far less than the Feng Family’s expectation of over ten million.
Some in the audience couldn’t help but show a smirk, but Wang Xuqin, who continued to host the auction, was still flawless in his demeanor.
Soon, the metaphorical smoke of battle returned. The atmosphere was completely different from before, with both genuine bidders and those there just for fun resuming the intense pace, relentless and vigorous as if after a halftime break.
This was the normal vibe of a Ming Yao event.
That previous moment of calm and quiet was like a distorted scene in a painting.
Mr. Gong and Ms. Yin set their sights on a piece of jade and became hot-headed partners, fiercely bidding and winning that fine piece of jade.
The auction hall brimmed with “smoke” as the atmosphere heated up—there was teasing, shouting, and even some rolling up their sleeves ready to fight, no longer caring about decorum.
As a member of the onlooking crowd, Feng Yi certainly gained insights and had a rough idea of how high these people would bid when they got going.
Picking up the auction catalog, he flipped through it again and set his sights on a painting.
This painting was jointly created by several students funded by Ming Yao, a charitable piece with no commercial intent. Although it couldn’t compare to the jewels and diamonds, Wang Xuqin also announced a starting bid of over a hundred thousand for it.
Feng Yi joined in the bidding, but this time there was no silence like with the black diamond. Many guests who hadn’t yet made a purchase were eyeing this painting, all wanting to snap up a deal.
