Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022: Sending My Remaining Years Afar (16)

”The starting bid for this item is fifty thousand.”

Chuzheng looked at the item and wasn’t interested, but Yu Jin leaned over, ”Miss Song, click for me.”

”Do you like it?” Chuzheng asked him.

Yu Jin replied lazily, ”I don’t like it, but I want it.”

Chuzheng looked up at the stage and noticed that the last person to press was Yu Wei.

Yu Wei?

Chuzheng pressed it, and the names and bid prices immediately rolled on the screen.

The name popped up, and people below started whispering to each other.

”Song Chuzheng?”

”Hmm...why does this name sound familiar?”

”That one from a while ago.”

”Wasn’t it the one just now?” someone curiously asked.

”No, right? That one left, didn’t she? Oh, now that you mention it, wasn’t that just Song Yanran?”

The onlookers earlier didn’t know who had caused a scene with Yu Kai, but someone remembered that face, knowing it was the Song Family’s daughter.

However, it was recently revealed that the Song Family didn’t have just one daughter, but a pair of twins.

So the one remaining here now must be Song Chuzheng, and the one earlier was definitely Song Yanran.

After all, who would have the face to stay here after causing such a scene...

The price on the screen changed again.

Yu Wei pressed it again.

One hundred thousand.

The minimum increment is ten thousand. One press, ten thousand more.

”Miss Song, one hundred and ten thousand.”

”Mr. Yu, one hundred and twenty thousand.”

”Miss Song...”

The host calmly announced the numbers.

The numbers kept climbing, and the surroundings gradually quieted down.

This situation was clearly a showdown, not just a simple desire to win that item.

”Mr. Yu, two hundred and twenty thousand.”

”Miss Song, two hundred and thirty thousand.”

The screen stopped.

This price completely exceeded the item’s own value.

Isn’t the Song Family burdened with troubles and financially tight?

Why is this newly found Song Family’s daughter daring to squander like this?

Chuzheng felt someone looking over and turned, seeing a man seated in a booth diagonally opposite.

It was Yu Wei, whom she had seen before.

He smiled at Chuzheng and made a gesture of invitation.

”...”

Yu Wei didn’t have any competitive spirit?

He just gave up like that?

Add a bit more!

”Do you want to provoke him?” Chuzheng nudged Yu Jin with her elbow.

Yu Jin raised an eyebrow; she actually noticed Yu Wei, which showed good observation skills.

”Hmm?”

Chuzheng seriously suggested, ”Make him raise the price a bit more.” Help me squander money!

”...”

The host on stage had already announced the end of this auction; it was too late to provoke him now.

Chuzheng then started squandering money.

As long as the starting price was reasonable, Chuzheng pressed the button for everything.

Song Chuzheng’s name kept appearing on the screen.

It was hard for the people in the room not to remember this name.

”Could this Song Family daughter be here to cause trouble?”

”People have money; why wouldn’t you let them bid?”

”This Song Family daughter is very kind-hearted; her father isn’t worried, so why are you?”

”I think she just returned to the Song Family and doesn’t know the Song Family’s situation, right?”

”If she can’t produce that much money later, it’ll be a joke.”

Everyone loves a good laugh.

Yu Jin took out his phone and sent a message to Uncle Bai.

—Send a card up.

—Sir?

Yu Jin seemed in a good mood, tapping slowly on the screen, typing out a line of text.

—The little kid bought quite a lot; I’ll end up stuck here later.

Uncle Bai was probably surprised by this message and took a while to reply with an ”Okay.”

-

Yu Wei participated twice afterward, but each time, Chuzheng cut him off.

Yu Wei had a good temper; every time he smiled at Chuzheng, as if he didn’t mind being repeatedly offended by a young girl.

”Thank you, everyone. This charity auction is coming to a close...” The screen started showing rankings, followed by amounts.

These were the total amounts of those present who participated in the auction today.

Chuzheng was the top, far exceeding the second place.

The host glanced at the screen, ”Now, let’s invite Miss Song to say a few words.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Do I have to speak?!

Chuzheng didn’t know there was a spotlight here, which was now precisely focused on her.

She had no choice but to go up.

Chuzheng got up, and the spotlight followed her movements, as people around her made way for her path.

Various complex and curious glances fell upon her.

”Is she Song Chuzheng?”

”She really looks exactly like Song Yanran.”

”Duh, they’re twins.”

”Hey, why wasn’t she at the Song Family before?”

”Didn’t the Song Family say her health wasn’t good since she was young, so she stayed in a quiet place? They just recently brought her back.”

Chuzheng walked up the steps to the stage.

Her dress by itself wasn’t particularly stunning, but for some reason, on her, it was mesmerizing.

As if only she could bring out such an effect in this dress.

The light shone on her, making it seem as if she was glowing.

”Her dress... seems like it’s the work of Mister Hoel,” someone below quietly marveled.

”Impossible, how come I’ve never seen it?”

Mister Hoel was a benchmark in the fashion world.

One of his outfits being sky-high in price was not an exaggeration.

Even at that sky-high price, he’d refuse to sell.

”Didn’t I attend that private gathering last time? Mr. Hoel was there too, and I saw it. I wanted to buy it, but Mr. Hoel said it was custom-made and not for sale, and... he also said I couldn’t pull it off.”

The person speaking initially thought Mr. Hoel was just making excuses.

They thought the dress wasn’t particularly pretty either, but with Mr. Hoel’s label on it, wearing it was a symbol.

Never expected to see it here today.

And Mr. Hoel wasn’t wrong.

Not everyone can wear this dress.

Chuzheng took the microphone the host handed over, ”I’m Song Chuzheng, nothing much to say, just here to squander money.”

The girl’s indifferent voice spread through the hall via the microphone.

Two sentences, no more.

Chuzheng handed the microphone back to the host and left during everyone’s moment of distraction.

”Wow.”

Someone exclaimed softly.

”That’s so dashing! If I said that, my dad would surely beat me up beyond recognition.”

”Does the Song Family really have so much money for her to squander?”

”Could it be just a show?”

In the booth area, Yu Wei sipped his tea with a smile, speaking to the person opposite, ”After today, everyone in the circle will know her. Drawing such attention deftly, this young girl is something.”

”Second Young Master, do you still have the energy to think about this? What about Fifth Young Master...”

”Yu Jin is now the head of the Yu Family; you need to change how you address him,” Yu Wei interrupted him.

”...” The person opposite looked displeased for a moment.

”This isn’t the place to talk. Save it for when we return,” Yu Wei said, looking towards the booth area.
