Chapter 27: Auction at Ophelia Castle
As soon as Su Jin returned to the villa, she felt her mood improved. She turned off the phone and TV and prepared to go back to the studio to paint for a while.
As soon as Su Jin picked up the paintbrush, Lu Shaoang's impeccable face appeared in her mind. He didn't look like he was in a bad mood at all.
Do you feel better after running?
Su Jin shook his head and didn't think much about it.
The phone rang suddenly.
Su Jinyi picked up the phone: "Brother?"
Jin Jinshu's gentle voice came from the other side: "Yi Yi, there will be an auction at Oufei Castle tomorrow night. I'll take you to see it, okay?"
Su Jinyi originally wanted to act alone, but since there was nothing wrong with going with Jin Jinshu, he agreed.
Jin Jinshu clearly felt that Su Jinyi was in a good mood. This was the first time she felt so happy since returning to Nancheng.
Jin Jinshu teased: "Is there something good about this? It sounds like you are in a good mood?"
Su Jinyi realized it only later, and her mood was still filled with the joy of running with Lu Shaoang.
Then he covered it up and said, "No, I slept well recently and I'm in a good mood."
Jin Jinshu smiled indulgently and did not expose her.
"I have prepared the dress for you. I will pick you up tomorrow night."
Su Jinyi: "Okay, I'll send you the address."
Jin Jinshu was stunned for a moment, then reacted and asked: "You don't live in the Su family anymore? Have you moved out?"
Su Jinyi then remembered that he had not yet mentioned the matter of moving out to the Jin family.
“Just moved out”
Jin Jinshu said: "Okay, send me the address."
The next day, Jin Jinshu showed up at Jiangyue Bay on time in a Maybach.
Su Jin opened the door and let him in. As soon as Jin Jinshu entered, he saw the pink swing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
I felt a pang of sadness in my heart. It turned out that Yi Yi was not as good as she seemed, and I had never really cared about her.
Jin Jinshu said carefully: "Yiyi, are you doing well after moving out? You didn't tell us that you moved out. Is your furniture still complete? Just let me know if you need anything."
Su Jinyi: "The furniture is all complete. I'm doing fine. Don't worry, brother."
At this time, the makeup team that followed Lu Shaoang's car also arrived.
Lu Shaoang: "Yi Yi, go change your clothes."
Su Jinyi brought the makeup artist to her room and changed into her dress.
The makeup artist couldn't help but exclaimed: "Miss Su is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. You don't even need makeup. You are more beautiful than any popular star in the entertainment industry!"
Su Jinyi was not used to being praised all the time, so she said calmly: "Just put on some light makeup."
Seeing that she had no desire to talk, the makeup artist also began to work seriously.
After finishing the makeup, the makeup artist immediately turned into a little fan girl and praised Su Jin one by one.
"Ms. Su, this dress is tailor-made for you. Only you can carry this dress."
Su Jinyi was wearing a black dress, like the brightest star in the night sky, exuding irresistible charm.
The design of this dress is unique and ingenious. The black fabric has a deep luster under the light, just like the Milky Way in the night sky, mysterious and noble.
Su Jinyi has a tall figure, and the dress was cut to fit her figure perfectly, showing off her graceful posture while retaining her dignity and elegance.
When Jin Jinshu saw Su Jin coming downstairs, he was stunned.
I don’t know since when Su Jinyi seemed to have grown up and become a big girl.
The makeup artist's voice brought him back to his senses.
"Mr. Jin, I am so satisfied with Miss Su. It makes me feel very accomplished. Please introduce me to more fairies like Miss Su. I will style them for free!"
Jin Jinshu said with a smile on his face: "I'm sorry, I only have one Miss Su."
Jin Jinshu stepped forward to support Su Jinyi and said softly, "Yiyi, let's go."
Su Jin nodded slightly.
The car quickly arrived at the Ophelia Auction. Many media gathered at the door, vying to take pictures of the people getting out of the car.
Su Jinyi looked at the flashing camera and frowned slightly.
Jin Jinshu told the driver to drive to the back door and enter through a special passage.
The interior of the auction house was gorgeous and solemn, full of the atmosphere of art and wealth. A huge crystal chandelier hung from the high ceiling, emitting a soft and bright light, illuminating the entire venue like daylight.
The walls are decorated with exquisite reliefs and famous paintings, each of which is a priceless work of art, demonstrating the high-end and taste of the auction.
Su Jin caused a small commotion as she entered the venue holding Jin Jinshu's arm.
This was the first time that Jin Jinshu attended a public event with a female companion.
How many women have been eyeing the location of Jin Jinshu's female companion, but have never even been able to see him. Today, he actually brought his female companion with him!
Men want to have a good relationship with Jin Jinshu. Just having the title of knowing Jin Jinshu can gain them a lot of benefits in the business circle. Many people want to have a relationship with Jin Jinshu.
Su Jinyi is also the focus of everyone's attention and the focus of everyone's attention.
She has a strong aura, as if she can control the atmosphere of the entire occasion.
Wearing a black dress, she looks like a goddess walking out of the darkness. She has both inviolable majesty and an attraction that makes people want to get closer.
"Jinshu, you're here. I didn't expect that someone like you who is not interested in women would sometimes bring a female companion with you?" Xu Beizhou teased.
He and Jin Jinshu have been business partners for many years and have a good private relationship.
Jin Jinshu: "My sister, Su Jinyi"
Xu Beizhou had an expression that said, "This is your precious sister." Then he looked at Su Jin and said, "If it was my sister, I would hide her and treasure her too."
Su Jinyi nodded politely: "Hello, I'm Su Jinyi"
Xu Beizhou was flattered and said: "Hello, hello, I am Xu Beizhou, just call me Xiaobei..."
Jin Jinshu interrupted him: "Yi Yi, ignore him"
Xu Beizhou complained: "If I had known you would bring your sister, I would have brought Yan Xi with me."
Jin Jinshu brought Su Jinyi to a private room at the corner of the third floor, where there were few people and it was quiet.
Jin Jinshu asked for some snacks from the waiter and placed them next to Su Jinyi's hand.
"If you find any you like, tell me later and I'll take a picture of it, okay?"
"it is good."
In the middle box on the third floor, Lu Shaoang was leaning on the sofa with a glass of champagne in his hand, and said lazily: "Is everything arranged?"
"Everything has been arranged. Captain He is already in place and is on standby."
Lu Shaoang responded.
The auction will begin soon.
The center of the venue is the auction table, on which are displayed exquisite auction items, ranging from antique pearls to modern art, pearls, gems and precious calligraphy and paintings, each of which is a carefully selected treasure.
Lu Shaoang was not interested in these things. He just waited for the other party to make a move and then he would take action.
Suddenly, the auctioneer introduced excitedly: "Next is a famous painting called Dawn, which was created by a famous artist. The starting price is five million!"
The auctioneer said as he lifted the cloth covering the painting.
The painting shows a dark sea with giant beasts and monsters hiding in the seabed, trying to rush out to attack a small boat. The small boat is drifting alone on the sea, being lifted up by the waves and full of dangers.
The giant beasts and monsters were so lifelike that they seemed as if they were about to swallow the boat into their stomachs in the next second, which stung Lu Shaoang's eyes.
Only then did Lu Shaoang understand the painting.
That ray of sunshine was not her final struggle of giving up, but her self-salvation!
It’s “Dawn”!
Lu Shaoang didn’t know what Su Jinyi had experienced in the past, but at this moment Lu Shaoang just wanted to thank her for her self-redemption, which gave him the opportunity to know her.
It turns out that the painting I saw in Su Jinyi’s studio that day was called "Dawn"!
Someone has already started raising the price.
"Five million two hundred thousand"
"Five and a half million"
"Five million eight hundred thousand"
Auctioneer: "Five million eight hundred thousand per time!"
"Eight million!"
In order not to reveal his identity, Lu Shaoang asked the waiter to hold the sign on his behalf.
"Number 7, eight million once! Eight million twice!"
The people sitting in the audience all cast their eyes towards the middle seat on the third floor. The middle seat was hard to book, and not only could it be booked by those with money. They also became interested in seat number 7.
But there are always people who like to run into the gun. Qi Kaize looked towards the third floor, raised his lips and interrupted the auctioneer.
"Nine million!"
The auctioneer said excitedly: "Nine million once! Nine million twice! Any more?"
Lu Shaoang stared at the painting "Dawn" and said with a smile on his face: "Raise the sign, 100 million!"
The waiter was stunned and asked: "Sir...are you sure you want 100 million?"
"Hold the sign."
"Yes"
"One hundred million!" the waiter held up the number 7 sign and shouted loudly.
"One hundred million once, one hundred million twice, is there any more?"
Qi Kaize knew that he had run into a tough guy this time, and said in a bored tone: "No need to add more, that guy is not easy to deal with."
"Three times a hundred million!"
The auctioneer hammered hard and shouted, "Congratulations to No. 7, million sold!"
Lu Shaoang looked at "Dawn" with gentle eyes.
Su Jin looked up at "Dawn" and raised the corners of his lips with satisfaction and said: "Good vision"
She was very satisfied with the price.
Jin Jinshu raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you like it?"
Su Jinyi: "I just think this painting is worth the high price." Then she smiled jokingly, "But we don't need to spend this money in vain."
How can you draw and buy a painting yourself? It's a waste of money. It's more interesting than asking others to give you money.
