”The Yu Family, huh. How amusing that they’re paying so much money to Yuan after kicking him out of the family and robbing him of everything while being completely oblivious to the truth…” Meixiu could only imagine the shock on the Yu Family’s face once they realize Player Yuan’s true identity. Perhaps they might even puke blood once they learn the truth.

”If they had treated Yuan with even the slightest of care, perhaps the Yu Family wouldn’t have needed to spend so much money on the Frozen Jade Zither,” Meixiu mumbled to herself as the last ten minutes slowly approached zero.

Meanwhile, across all COPlayerAuctions’ headquarters and working buildings around the world, all of its staff members were watching the auction with wide grins on their faces, looking like they were just minutes away from winning the lottery.

”Hahaha! Congratulations, Lee! You’ll definitely be promoted after this auction that’ll definitely make history! Hell, they might even move you to the main headquarters!” His fellow workers treated Lee differently after they realized that the treasure and auction were real, acting like they never doubted him in the first place.

”Don’t forget about us when you move up the ladder, Lee!”

Although these people were praising and cheering for Lee’s success out in the open and acted like they were happy for him, they were actually burning with envy inwardly, cursing the heavens for not sending the notification for the auction request to them instead of Lee.

”Thank you all. If I hadn’t listened to my guts and ignored the auction request, we wouldn’t be here right now.” Lee said to them with the widest smile in the room on his face.

Not only will he receive recognition for his work, but he’ll also receive a small portion of that 10% service fee, and even if it’s just 10 percent of that 10 percent, he’d be earning at least 6 million dollars, which is far more than his total income after working for the company for over twenty years.

”Look! It increased by another million! Who is this MusicGenius?!” One of them asked.

”That’s the pride of the Jiang Family, he’s a musical genius who shook the world with his musical talents at 10 years old, and he has been playing for Royal Entertainment for the last 9 years.”

”Royal Entertainment? Ah, they’re the Yu Family’s number one rival, who owns Jade Entertainment.”

”So it’s a battle between the two largest giants in the music industry, huh? I wonder who’ll end up victorious since they both have enormous wealth.”

The staff and hundreds of millions of people around the world watched as two families fought for the Frozen Jade Zither.

[Yu Family bids 603,000,000!]

[MusicGenius bids 605,000,000!]

[Yu Family bids 610,000,000!]

[MusicGenius bids 610,100,000!]

[Yu Family bids 610,200,000!]

The battle between the Yu Family and MusicGenius continued even a couple of minutes after the timer for the auction reached zero. Once the bid remains unmatched for 10 seconds, the winner will be decided!

When the auction reached 620,000,000, the viewers watched in anticipation as the final countdown started!

[00:10]

[00:09]

[00:08]

[00:07]

Once the countdown finally reached zero, a large announcement appeared in the middle of the website.

[Congratulations to the Yu Family for winning this bid!]

In the end, the Yu Family won the bid, but it’d cost them 620 million dollars.

However, while this may seem like a lot of money, it was only a drop in the bucket for them who owns one of the largest entertainment companies in the world with businesses and branches all over the world, earning them billions annually.

Once the auction ended, 620 million dollars were deducted from the Yu Family’s account before being sent straight to Meixiu’s account on the website with the service fees already deducted.

In the end, Meixiu received 558,000,000 dollars from the auction and an additional 20,000 dollars for her initial deposit that was doubled by Lee.

Meixiu wasted no time withdrawing the money, depositing it directly to the bank account that she shared with Yuan.

Normally, having such a massive amount of money suddenly deposited into one’s bank account at once would alert the bank and trigger some sort of investigation, but luckily for Yuan and Meixiu, the bank account was created by Yu Rou, who was the daughter of the prestigious Yu Family, granting that bank account premium features such as absolute anonymity.

Meixiu went to look at the bank account to make sure the money had been deposited, and sure enough, there were 558,020,000 dollars inside.

Ding!

A notification from the COPlayerAuctions appeared a few minutes after the auction ended.

[Congratulations on the auction! The upper management would like to request an interview with you. They have promised that you’ll receive full anonymity so you don’t have to worry about your identities being leaked. What do you say?]

After reading the notification, Meixiu typed three words without any hesitation—

[No, thank you.]

[I understand. If you ever have something else that you’d like to sell, please don’t hesitate to use COPlayerAuctions again! We’ll even give you some sort of deal such as reducing the service fees! Once again, thank you for trusting and using our platform!]

The internet went crazy with everybody talking about the Frozen Jade Zither’s auction, and many people believed it to be Player Yuan’s treasure.

Meanwhile, inside the Mystic Realm, Yuan and Lan Yingying had just returned to the temple.

”There are too many trees here so we’ll have to go on foot.” Lan Yingying said to him before transforming back to her human form.

Her white hair and pink eyes also returned back to their original colors.

Sometime later, they arrived at the cabin.

”Grandfather! Grandmother!” Lan Yingying called out to them as they approached the cabin.

”Hm? You’re back with the young man already? Did you decide to change your mind and impregnate our granddaughter, after all?” The grandparents were pleasantly surprised to see Yuan return with Lan Yingying so quickly.
