Chapter 291
Baiyun Xuan auction house was the biggest auction house in Ninghai .
It was said that the boss of the auction house came from a powerful background and that was how he was able to defeat all opposition and win the right to auction off Master of the Divine Burin’s work .
The moment Ding Ning entered the Tianquan North which Road Baiyun Xuan auction house was on, he discovered that the advertisements plastered on all the lightboxes on this street were about this auction . Even the neon lights on the nearby restaurants and Baiyunxuan Mall were advertising the same . They clearly showed how seriously Baiyun Xuan auction house viewed this auction .
It was probably only Ding Ning who did not know what an uproar his jade carving had on the antique world . After the top two Ninghai jade carving masters saw his work, their praise was endless and admitted they could not compare .
With the praise of the top two masters in the professional world as well as the powerful publicity provided by Tianfu Company, the news got out very quickly . First, the president of Ninghai’s antique society brought appraisers to appraise, then the president of the Yan Jing antique society made a personal visit, then after that jade carving masters from all over the country came to visit . Even foreign jade carving masters heard of the news and paid visits . All gave very high praise .
Tianfu Company took advantage of the situation and, allying with Baiyun Xuan auction house’s tireless publicity, domestic and international millionaires and collectors came without regard to the distance . This was what created such a prestigious auction .
For Ninghai’s city government, the auction was a chance to demonstrate Ninghai’s international metropolis to the world . As it also happened to be peak travel season for National Day, the government placed particular importance on this auction and had sent out large numbers of police to keep the peace . The city government would not allow anything to go wrong . It was under these circumstances that Xiao Nuo had become the head commander responsible for the safety of the auction items .
Although there were two more days until the official auction date, the organizers, Baiyun Xuan and Tianfu Company, decided to especially host a small-scale exhibition for the millionaires and jade carving masters who had come to take a look .
Today, Xiao Nuo wore a white half-sleeve inner shirt with a short-sleeve black blazer over top . Her hair was cut in a bob with a pair of earphones resting on top . She looked completely like an auction house staff member . As she stood waiting anxiously at the door of the auction house, she immediately became the focal point of everyone’s gaze .
The usually silent and unsmiling female police superior, who emanated a coldness that warned off strangers, actually revealed an embarrassed smile after making a phone call . This made the jaws of her subordinates drop almost to the ground . They all secretly wondered who was on the phone that was able to melt this impenetrable glacier?
“Hello, beautiful lady . I am Pals from France, may I invite you to dinner?”
At this moment, a tall and handsome golden-haired white young man came over, accompanied by a group of people . After seeing Xiao Nuo, his beautiful sky-blue eyes flashed with remarkable brilliance . He spoke politely and in the Shenzhou language which he appeared well-practiced in .
“I’m sorry . I don’t know you . ”
The smile on Xiao Nuo’s face immediately disappeared . She returned to her usual cold expression and furrowed her brows .
“Ah, lady, I just want to invite you to dinner . I have no ulterior motives . You are the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen, and I think I have been struck by love at first sight . I hope you will give me a chance to pursue you . ”
Pals was not disheartened and he expressed his love with deep emotion . In the eyes of outsiders, this was very strange but for someone who grew up in France, the land of romance, this could not be more normal .
Xiao Nuo’s brows were pulled tightly together . Impatiently, she said, “Please move, I’m meeting a friend . ”
“You can ask your friend to change the meeting time . I think we will have a romantic evening . ”
Pals was like a dogskin plaster, sticking tightly to Xiao Nuo .
“I have no interest in you, please move . ”
Xiao Nuo had never met such a pestering person . She forcefully suppressed the anger in her heart and spoke icily .
“Beautiful lady, don’t be angry . I mean no harm . I just want to pursue you . ”
Pals raised his hands, an innocent expression on his face but he stood in Xiao Nuo’s way .
“Get lost!”
Xiao Nuo’s temper was never very good . If not for the fact that she was now responsible for the safety of the auction, she would have sent him flying with a kick long ago .
“Beautiful lady, you are too rude . Tell me, how much money do you need before you will agree to dinner with me? One hundred thousand or two hundred thousand?”
Pals noted Xiao Nuo’s disinterest in him and his face darkened immediately . Purposely, he shook the Vacheron Constantin watch on his wrist and spoke arrogantly .
“Little girl, do you know who Mr . Pals is? He is the chairman of the Asian Sector of Osklan Corporations . For him to be interested in you is your good fortune; stop pretending to be so noble and virtuous . ”
A fat middle-aged Shenzhou man, balding at the top, arrogantly flattered Pals .
A cold light flashed through Xiao Nuo’s eyes . Compared to a foreigner filled with a sense of superiority, like Pals, she hated Shenzhou people who worshipped foreigners and bowed and scrapped before them the most . “If he looks favorably upon your mother, then that’s also your good fortune . ”
“What did you say? Are you looking for a beating? Do you know who I am?”
The fat man’s face grew bright red and he stretched out turnip like fingers to point and yell at Xiao Nuo .
“Alright, Mr . Li, this is a girl that I like . Don’t interrupt . ”
Pals unhappily interrupted Mr . Li’s anger . Mr . Li’s expression changed with remarkable speed . He immediately squeezed out a smile and nodded agreeably . “Yes, Mr . Pals, I was too excited . You are correct . ”
“Lady, name a price . How much will it cost for you to spend the night with me? One million? Is that enough?”
Pals was very pleased with Mr . Li’s attitude . He looked arrogantly at Xiao Nuo . From an invitation to dinner, it had quickly turned into an all-night event .
Xiao Nuo clenched her fist . Her good mood had all but vanished . She forcefully suppressed the raging fire in her heart and said, “Stop bothering me . Move . ”
“No matter how beautiful a woman is, she has a price . Mr . Pals has plenty of money; name a price . ”
