8 pm, Glorious Hotel.

Tonight, the hotel grand ballroom was reserved for a charity auction. The people coming and going were all business elites, socialites, and other upper-class people.
Fang Xin held Lu Ting’s arm and entered the ballroom. She was wearing a starry sky-themed couture dress which accentuated her slender figure. Her entire body was shimmering, and she was elegant.
As for Lu Ting, he was wearing a simple tailored suit but his great disposition made it hard for people to take their eyes off him.

“Let’s sit here.”

Lu Ting brought her to the center of the first row. The attractive couple drew all eyes on them as they sat down.

A business partner of Lu Ting’s came by with a glass of wine.

“CEO Lu, Mrs. Lu, nice to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you.”

Fang Xin smiled sweetly. He raised his glass with a smile.

“CEO Lu brought Mrs. Lu here tonight. Looks like you’ll be spending money tonight.”

The comers of Lu Ting’s mouth curled up slightly.

“Tm glad to.”

He was willing to spend any amount of money on her.

Seeing the doting look in Lu Ting’s eyes, the business partner could not help but smile again. “CEO Lu, you’re so lucky.”

The three of them chatted for a while before the charity auction began.

Lu Ting glanced at Fang Xin and pinched her soft cheeks. “Just tell me what you like.”

“Tl definitely make it worth your while.” Fang Xin smiled.

She could buy as much as she wanted at the charity auction. In any case, the proceeds will be donated to help people in impoverished regions. The more money she spent, the better for Lu Ting’s reputation. She understood this kind of spending.
“You little vixen…” Lu Ting said casually. He held her waist and looked at the stage.

The auction had already begun.

The first few items in the collection were quite ordinary. They were antiques and jade pendants, and they did not pique Fang Xin’s interest.

Not long after, the auction began for the last three items.

The first was a royal artefact. It was a porcelain vase that was once used by an imperial consort.

“A high-quality, white-glazed porcelain vase. The starting price is 10 million. The bid increment is 100,000.”

Fang Xin’s eyes immediately lit up.

Not only was the porcelain vase exquisite, it was also used by a noble consort. Naturally, its value would increase.

“Do you like it?”

Lu Ting, who had been watching her and did not miss the glint in her eyes, asked gently. Fang Xin nodded enthusiastically and raised her paddle.
“Buy it for our little girl. She can use it to arrange flowers.”

Lu Ting paused.

Forget it. As long as she likes it, it doesn’t matter how she’d use it.

Fang Xin raised her paddle and called out, “11 million.”

“12 million.” A delicate and somewhat familiar female voice came from the back row.

Fang Xin turned her head and was surprised to see a familiar face.

It was Chen Yan!

Lu Ting also saw her and snorted.

“Don’t worry about her. Raise the price.”

No one had the right to fight with his woman.

He was Fang Xin’s backing and confidence.

“13 million.”

15 million.”

The two women’s voices echoed throughout the ballroom, and Fang Xin’s eyes got increasingly colder.

Lu Lin reminded Chen Yan in a low voice.

“Are you sure you want to continue bidding?”

“Yes.” Chen Yan squinted slightly.

She would snatch something as long as Fang Xin takes a liking to it. Although the Chen family wasn’t super wealthy, she could still afford tens of millions. As for Fang Xin, she could only rely on Lu Ting, what a useless b*tch!
The price quickly soared to 30 million.

Fang Xin cast a sidelong glance at Chen Yan. After thinking for a bit, she put down her bidding paddle.

“I won’t bid anymore. Since she wants it, I’ll let her have it.”

Although Chen Yan raised the price swiftly, the Chen family’s assets were probably only a little over 30 million. Chen Yan didn’t have much buffer. If she increased the bid further, she wouldn’t be able to afford it.
Lu Ting was stunned when he heard this.

“But you want it too.”
