Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Hua Jinyan is Drained Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Hua Jinyan is Drained Grandma Hua looked at Grandpa Hua suspiciously and asked, “Did you do something?”
“What?” Grandpa Hua appeared completely clueless.
Grandma Hua narrowed her eyes and scrutinized him.
Grandpa Hua’s eyes, somewhat guilty, wandered, and Grandma Hua caught it, frowning as she demanded, “Speak up, what did you do?”
“I… I didn’t really do anything, but don’t you think somebody should notify Old Man Xu about how she’s squandering money? You know, Old Man Xu is famously stingy. He would definitely want to call his daughter-in-law back urgently if he knew she was spending like this!”
Upon hearing this, Grandma Hua glanced at the promotional brochure. The Rose Bracelet was about to be auctioned soon, and with the Xu Family’s daughter-in-law leaving, they could indeed save quite a bit of money.
However, why did she feel so disheartened!
Grandma Hua snorted and ignored Grandpa Hua.
Grandpa Hua lowered his voice: “Give your dear grandson a bit of face. He wants to use his own money and doesn’t want to borrow from us. If we don’t drive that wasteful daughter-in-law of the Xu Family away, do you think our grandson’s money will be enough?”
Grandma Hua: “…” Too logical to argue with.
Grandma Hua snorted through her nose but said nothing more.
The ever-alert Hua Jinyan silently bowed his head, tapping his pocket’s card, already starting to figure out how to make money.
Finally, it was time for the Rose Bracelet to make its appearance!
The red velvet on the cart was lifted, revealing a glass dome beneath. Lights illuminated the dome, seated on a black platform with a red rose placed inside, quietly beautiful, yet its blooming form conveyed a vigorous, indefatigable strength.
The host kept talking endlessly about the origins of the Rose Bracelet, who designed it, who carved it…
The noblewomen present weren’t that enthusiastic. After all, it was jewelry meant for little girls, but some who had daughters started to become very proactive.
Several girls at the venue started shouting out bids!
Feiya, determined to win, shouted, “Ten million!”
The bracelet, initially raised to just six million, suddenly shot up so much that many people quieted down, no longer making bids.
Another girl with sky-blue eyes, not wanting to lose to Feiya, loudly shouted, “Eleven million!”
Feiya’s eyes flickered with disdain. Anyone who only incremented by one million was obviously not too rich!
Feiya started raising the price again, directly shouting, “Twenty million!”
Feiya’s grandmother frowned deeply at her six-year-old granddaughter.
Feiya, oblivious to the displeasure and distaste in her grandmother’s eyes, swiftly countered as the girl with sky-blue eyes bid “Twenty-one million,” shouting, “Thirty million!”
Feiya’s grandmother’s voice was stern, “If it can’t be won with fifty million, stop.”
Feiya, dissatisfied, looked at her grandmother, met her grandmother’s stern gaze, pouted her lips but dared not make another sound.
The girl with the blue eyes looked disappointed and shook her head, “Dad, I don’t want it anymore. It’s too expensive.”
The man lovingly tousled her hair, “You can keep bidding, if it reaches fifty million, it’s not worth it.”
“Can I bid up to fifty million?” The hope shone bright within those blue eyes.
The man smilingly indulged her, “Yes, go ahead and keep bidding, my darling.”
“Okay!” She nodded obediently and bid, “Thirty-one million!”
Even though her dad said she could go up to fifty million, the little girl still conservatively only added one million.
Feiya’s eyes were set on winning, she directly bid, “Fifty million!”
Tears shimmered in the blue-eyed girl, she bowed her head, “I don’t want it anymore.”
Feiya looked triumphantly at her grandmother, but meeting her grandmother’s angry eyes, she shrank her neck, hesitant to look at her grandmother again.
Just as Feiya thought she was sure to win, a voice from the crowd announced, “Fifty-one million.”
Hua Jinyan fingered the card in his pocket, his total savings of seven years… gone, every penny of it.
