Chapter 233: The Auction

"It's you!"

Qu Mengyue pointed at the woman inside the auction hall. She was extremely angry, her face turning green and then pale. Her wide-open eyes were filled with bloodshot veins. It was obvious that she was on the verge of being enraged to death.

However, Shen Jianyi didn't care at all. Since the invitation letter was no longer useful, she was no longer using Qu Mengyue's identity.

At this moment, Qu Mengyue patted the waiter on the shoulder, grabbed his wrist tightly, pointed at the woman inside, and started shouting abuse: "It's her! Quickly arrest her for me. She stole my invitation letter. How come she can get in but I can't?"

No matter how angry the woman was, the waiter simply ignored her. He still looked expressionless, even putting one hand behind his back, and politely said: "Miss, please behave yourself."

"You!" Qu Mengyue was so angry that she couldn't speak. She could only stare blankly as the woman inside turned around and left.

Shen Jianyi was too lazy to argue with her here. She wrapped her arm around Gun's and walked inside.

"Quickly arrest her!" Qu Mengyue jumped up outside. "If you don't arrest her, you're finished!"

"Hurry up!"

Despite Qu Mengyue's shouting, the waiter still maintained his cold attitude. Maybe he thought she was being too unreasonable, so he directly called the security guards.

At that time, Qu Mengyue looked extremely embarrassed when she was dragged away by the security guards. Her evening dress had several big holes scraped on the ground, and her whole face was pale with shock.

Inside.

Gun whispered with a smile: "Didn't you inject her with the fainting drug?"

"I did." Shen Jianyi replied coldly. "But I didn't expect there to be an auction. I thought I could get the chip yesterday."

Just as she finished speaking, Shen Jianyi suddenly thought of something. She turned to look at the man: "What about you? How long did the drug you injected into the person you robbed last?"

"I'm not sure. It's enough for him to be unconscious here for several days."

Have to admit, in some aspects, Gun was really much more ruthless than her.

Inside the auction hall.

The center was dimly lit. There was a pillar on the table, and right above the pillar was the chip that everyone wanted.

There were three or four rows of people sitting around the sign. These were all the people coming for the auction. Each person held a sign in their hand. After entering, the waiter gave them each a sign. Shen Jianyi was No. 169, and Gun was No. 170.

The two of them sat in the last row. Looking at the people around them, Shen Jianyi coughed lightly: "Should our cooperation end here?"

"Why do you say so?" Gun turned his head.

The woman curled her red lips, looking quite proud. She held Lu Jinsheng's black card in her hand and didn't have to worry about not getting the chip at all.

Shen Jianyi took out her own black card from her bosom, waved it in front of him, and said proudly: "What do you think?"

Gun nodded and then gave her a thumbs up.

Just as the two were still talking.

Suddenly, lights shone on the round stage. Two beams of light came in and just hit the table in the center. The pillar was brightly illuminated, and inside the transparent box was a chip.

From a distance, Shen Jianyi could tell that the chip in the transparent box was actually real. This really surprised Shen Jianyi.

It seemed that Xu Wenji had really gone all out this time. He even dared to take out the real chip. It seemed that he planned to make a fortune here and then leave this city or even this country.

Shen Jianyi secretly made up her mind that no matter what, she must get the chip.

Right now, she didn't really care about the others. The one she should be most worried about was Gun beside her. This guy had snatched many tasks from her in the past, and he must have a lot of money.

At the moment, Shen Jianyi thought that as long as she could get the chip, then find Xu Wenji's whereabouts and get her money back, she could get the chip without spending a single cent.

While she was thinking, her gaze swept to the row below her, and she just saw Xia Liang, Lu Yuan, and Lan Xi sitting there.

Xia Liang turned her head and glanced at Shen Jianyi. She seemed very surprised that she was wearing a different mask. After giving her a look, she quickly turned her head away.

Anyway, whether it was her or Xia Liang who got the chip, it would end up in her hands. The person who could most affect her had already been injected with the drug and was probably still lying in the hotel.

The auction was about to start.

Soft music slowly played in the hall. As the music was approaching its climax, a mysterious man suddenly appeared.

He was dressed in black and wore a black cloak, covering himself tightly. He didn't show a single bit of himself. He covered his mask, just like everyone else on the scene, hiding his identity.

The mysterious man's voice had been professionally processed. His voice was deep and hoarse, making people feel depressed when listening.

"Welcome everyone to this auction hall!" He raised his hands above his head, and applause immediately rang out from the audience.

He lowered his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet. "The item for auction in this auction is a chip with many secrets. The starting price is 30 million."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sigh from below. How many people gave up as soon as they heard this starting price? 30 million was nothing to some people, but for others, it was a bit difficult.

The mysterious man took a few steps back. These steps were taken very slowly. He waved his hand: "The auction begins!"

The etiquette lady standing beside held a mallet in her hand and was waiting for the first bid.

The man sitting in the second row raised the sign in his hand.

The etiquette gentleman beside shouted: "No. 69 bids 35 million!"

"No. 72 bids 40 million."

"No. 33 bids 45 million."

Watching the increasing numbers, Shen Jianyi didn't raise her sign. She wanted to see how high they could go.

Then, someone continued to bid.

"No. 72 bids 55 million."

"No. 33 bids 60 million!"

"..."

The two of them seemed to be in a deadlock, constantly increasing the price. Before long, the price had reached 80 million, but even so, they still refused to give in.

"No. 166 bids 70 million!"

No. 166 was Xia Liang. Seeing that the two of them were no longer in a deadlock, she slowly made her move. She had prepared 100 million for this auction. Of course, if she could get it at the lowest price, it would be the best.

"Is there anyone else?" the etiquette gentleman asked.

Lan Xi beside her naturally didn't want to be outdone and directly raised her sign: "No. 167 bids 73 million."

Xia Liang frowned. It seemed that this companion was going to compete with her. She raised the sign in her hand again.

"No. 166 bids 90 million!"

This amount was extremely high. Ordinary people simply couldn't afford it. Those who originally wanted to bid had now silently put down their signs and started watching the excitement.

At this moment.

The etiquette gentleman spoke again: "No. 165 bids 100 million!"
