Chapter 763: Chapter 763 How did I Become Your Man? (1) _1

Xia Wan’an: "..." Sorry for the interruption, but the real instance of ’more money than sense’ is coming up!

The way Han Jingnian was bidding drew the attention of many in the room, including Lin Chen.

Lin Chen thought Han Jingnian genuinely liked the gem, so he didn’t bid against him, which allowed Han Jingnian to win the gem worth several hundred thousand for two million.

Generally speaking, the prominent figures who attended would bid on a few items for charity. Everyone assumed that Han Jingnian’s major spending was just for making a donation to the charity, and even Lin Chen thought so. As such, when the sixth item, which he quite liked, was introduced, he placed a bid: "One million."

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Jingnian, who had remained silent since his two million bid for the gem, chimed in: "Two million."

Lin Chen: "..." Really? Is it just a coincidence that the items I like are also liked by CEO Han?

Thinking this, Lin Chen stepped back once again and sent a message to Xia Wan’an: "Madam President, your man’s taste matches mine quite well!"

Before Xia Wan’an could reply, a new auction item was brought out. Lin Chen continued bidding: "One million."

"Two million," Han Jingnian said for the third time.

Lin Chen: "..."

Lin Chen, who seemed to get the hint, took another shot: "Three million."

The moment his bid settled, Han Jingnian responded with: "Four million."

Lin Chen silently backed off again and sent Xia Wan’an another message: "Madam President, your man is not just matching my tastes—he is deliberately outbidding me! Madam President, what did I ever do to your man?"

Xia Wan’an didn’t reply to Lin Chen’s message. She watched Han Jingnian walk out with another item worth several hundred thousand for four million. She couldn’t help but raise her hand to rub her temple.

It’s not that she didn’t reply to Lin Chen’s message. It was because she was trying to save face for Han Jingnian. She couldn’t tell Lin Chen that Han Jingnian had begun to suspect her, that he was acting this way because of a little elbow nudge from Lin Chen, that he was merely jealous...

Coming to the realization that he was being targeted by Han Jingnian, Lin Chen stopped bidding. After that, Han Jingnian also stopped bidding.

The charity event proceeded smoothly and, when people weren’t even aware, the final and most significant part had begun. The last item to be auctioned, which also happened to be the most expensive one, was up for grabs. The person who won the bid would become the image ambassador for tonight’s charity event.

After the host said the word ’start’, Ai Jiang, who hadn’t bid since the event started, finally made a move: "Two million."

The actual reason Xia Wan’an was at the charity event tonight was this very moment. Seeing Ai Jiang placing a bid, she followed suit and raised the bidding paddle: "Three million."

The sound of Xia Wan’an’s voice drew the simultaneous attention of Han Jingnian, Lin Chen, and Xia Chen’an, all sitting in the front row, who turned to look at her.

After they switched their attention back, Ai Jiang, who was across the crowd, looked at her. The determination to win flashed in her eyes as she quickly raised her paddle to continue the bidding war: "Three million and five hundred thousand."

Without hesitating, Xia Wan’an followed suit: "Four million."

"Eight million." Another voice shouted out a bid.

Upon hearing this voice, Xia Wan’an nearly took off her high heels and threw them at Han Zhijin across the front row, this mischievous boy, why mess things up at such a critical moment?!
