Mu Yan heard Jiang Jingheng bid twenty million, and her first thought was that he was crazy!
That’s twenty million, not two thousand, who spends money like this? Isn’t it just a painting?
To her surprise, the other guests were much calr than Mu Yan.
Rather than saying Ning Shishen and Jiang Jingheng were fighting over a painting, it was more like they were competing for pride.
One representative of the Upper City Jiang Family, the other of the Upper City Ning Family.
Whoever wins today represents their family’s victory.
Ning Shishen saw Jiang Jingheng’s determined attitude, and turned to the host, saying, "Thirty million!"
"Fifty million!" Jiang Jingheng imdiately called out, without a mont’s hesitation.
The crowd gasped, and this ti those wealthy won didn’t dare to casually claim themselves as magnates.
After all, they wouldn’t spend fifty million on a worthless painting.
Mu Yan looked at Jiang Jingheng, her eyes full of disapproval.
Fifty million, what was he thinking?
Even if he was jealous, he shouldn’t be wasteful with money.
If he wants to do charity, he should at least bid on sothing worth that much.
Jiang Jingheng seed unaware of Mu Yan’s disapproval, coldly looking ahead, ready to raise the bid at any ti.
"Sixty million!" Ning Shishen followed with another bid.
Mu Yan was stunned, looking at him, was he being spiteful?
Anyway, she absolutely did not believe he liked the painting enough to spend sixty million.
"Eighty million!"
The entire auction room fell into an eerie silence, with everyone speculating if the painting would reach a hundred million.
Judging by the competitive aura between the two, it seed very likely.
Mu Yan was about to lose her mind with anger; what was Jiang Jingheng doing, money shouldn’t be spent like this, she wondered how she would deal with him at ho.
Seeing Ning Shishen about to increase the bid, she quickly grabbed his sleeve.
Ning Shishen turned to her, asking in a low voice, "What’s the matter?"
Jiang Jingheng’s gaze fell on Mu Yan’s hand holding Ning Shishen’s sleeve, a surge of hostility exploded within him.
His fists clenched tightly, darkness swirling in his eyes, wanting desperately to separate them.
Fortunately, Mu Yan withdrew her hand, saying to Ning Shishen, "Don’t raise the bid anymore."
Ning Shishen looked at her pleading eyes, his emotions growing complex.
She must not want him to compete with Jiang Jingheng.
One is her boyfriend, and the other is a friend she rarely sees.
In her heart, her boyfriend must be more important.
Seeing her protect Jiang Jingheng like this, he suddenly lost his obsession with the painting.
The scariest part is, competing with Jiang Jingheng wasn’t just about liking the painting, it was also about competing with him.
Competing for what, for her?
He seed to have no right to fight.
He turned to Jiang Jingheng, saying calmly, "I concede, congratulations, the painting is yours."
Mu Yan felt a sense of relief, looking at Jiang Jingheng, seeing his face extrely dark, her heart sank, oh no, he seed angry again.
Jiang Jingheng didn’t shake hands with Ning Shishen, he looked at the host, "The result."
The host jolted internally, quickly saying, "Eighty million once, eighty million twice, eighty million three tis, congratulations to Young Master Jiang for acquiring this painting of sunflowers."
No hint of victory joy appeared on Jiang Jingheng’s handso face, he turned around and left without a word.
Mu Yan watched his back, really wanting to chase after him, but unfortunately under everyone’s eyes, she could only endure.
"Does he misunderstand us?" Ning Shishen’s voice suddenly ca.
Mu Yan looked at him, feeling a bit awkward, "That’s just how he is, Brother Ning, don’t mind him. I’ll try to convince him to give you the sunflower painting later."
"No need." Ning Shishen refused.
It’s about a man’s dignity; no matter how much he liked it, he wouldn’t take it.
Mu Yan said nothing more, her thoughts focused on Jiang Jingheng, only hoping the auction would end quickly.
