Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 940: Chapter 940: The Last Item Chapter 940: Chapter 940: The Last Item The shoppers here also sought the thrill of that moment–the instant they made their move.

Similarly, they came here to shop because there were many items that simply couldn’t be found elsewhere.

For instance, the host was currently introducing a new product.

“This vial of blue liquid, known as ‘Devil’s Kiss’, requires just a single drop to kill a person silently and tracelessly. The seller has set the price at fifty million British Pounds. Ladies, please prepare for a five-second countdown–”

Gong Mei marveled inwardly, “To think that such harmful substances exist in the world, yet the price is frighteningly steep.”

“Time’s up, begin!” The moment the host’s voice faded, numerous bell sounds immediately filled the air.

Jian Yufei thought that no one would buy such a pricey and harmful thing.

If there were any, there shouldn’t be many.

But the result… judging by those bell sounds just now, it seemed like hundreds had rung their bells.

It turned out that these women were not the kind-hearted sort.

Such a substance, once bought, would certainly be used to harm others; definitely not for saving lives…

This time, many people rang their bells, which meant a lot of them pressed at the exact same moment.

But only one person could gain the right to purchase.

So the next step was down to luck, leaving it to the system to randomly select.

After a tense drawing process, soon, the button in front of one lady turned red.

She had been chosen by the system and earned the purchasing rights for ‘Devil’s Kiss’.

Many cast a glance at her, but she was wrapped up tightly, leaving no one able to recognize her.

…

An hour had passed since the transaction began, yet there was still no sign of Ruan Tianling.

Pressing her headset, Gong Mei asked softly, “How are things on your end, Cu Haoyan?”

“Haven’t seen Ruan Tianling, what about you?”

“He hasn’t shown up here either.”

“Let’s continue waiting, he should appear.”

“Mm.”

Gong Mei turned off her headset and reached out to hold Jian Yufei’s tightly clenched hand.

“Don’t worry, he will show up.”

“Mm.” Jian Yufei nodded slightly.

She wasn’t afraid of losing forty percent of the Ruan Family’s shares; she was afraid if Ruan Tianling didn’t appear.

If he didn’t, she really didn’t know what to do.

Another hour passed, and the transaction was nearing its end.

Yet, there was still no sign of Ruan Tianling in either of the trading venues…

Jian Yufei’s heart had completely plummeted to the bottom.

“Next, is the last item of this season’s auction. The item itself is not special, but its price is exceptional…”

The hearts of Jian Yufei and Gong Mei lifted with the host’s words.

“Now, let us reveal our final item!” The host said, then hurried to the side of the stage.

At the center of the stage, a large glass enclosure slowly rose.

The crystal-clear glass enclosure, unobstructed in vision, contained a standing man.

He was bare from the waist up, with black, tight-fitting pants on his lower body. His firm and well-proportioned physique was downright perfect.

Under the lights, his wheat-colored muscles shimmered with an alluring glow unique to men.

The man wore a Zorro mask, yet his pronounced nose bridge, sensual thin lips, and a pair of deep, luminous black eyes were still visible.

Even though he was put on display as merchandise, there was still an undeniable, noble, and unyielding aura about him…

This man had a perfect body, mysteriously handsome features, and the temperament of a noble–
