Chapter 75
"Miss Nuo, shouldn't you be preparing inside?" Lin Xiao directly asked the question in his heart.
"I forgot some documents in the car, I went to get them." Nuo Xiaoyue replied with a smile.
"Car?" Lin Xiao remembered that when they met last time, Nuo Xiaoyue said that she didn't have a driver's license, so she didn't understand why she had a car now.
Regarding this matter, Nuo Xiaoyue obviously didn't want to say more, and immediately changed the subject: "The auction is about to start, let's go in quickly."
"Miss Nuo, he doesn't have an invitation card, which is against the rules." The guard knew Nuo Xiaoyue, and from the conversation between Nuo Xiaoyue and Lin Xiao, he had heard that Lin Xiao was indeed invited, but for his own To save face, he still blocked it.
"Mr. Lin is the owner of the finale lot of this auction. Yi just forgot to bring the invitation card. I will take care of any problems." Although Nuo Xiaoyue was always smiling, her tone of voice was unquestionable.
Hearing what Nuo Xiaoyue said, the guard didn't dare to look down on Lin Xiao, and his attitude immediately changed.
It's not the first day for him to work here, and he has experienced many auctions.In previous auctions, the finale items were at least hundreds of millions of dollars, and some even sold for billions of dollars.
In other words, Lin Xiao, as the owner of the grand finale of today's auction, even if he doesn't have a dime right now, after the auction is over, he will become a billionaire immediately.This is not something a small guard can offend.
"Mr. Lin, it was all a misunderstanding just now, I hope you don't take offense." The guard hurriedly apologized with a smile on his face.
Lin Xiao had no intention of making trouble for him. He waved his hands when he heard what he said, and said generously, "It's nothing. You are also responsible. I am optimistic about you."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for your compliment. Please come in." The doorman smiled like a blooming flower.
Not only did Lin Xiao not mean to blame, but he also praised Nuo Xiaoyue in front of Nuo Xiaoyue. Nuo Xiaoyue is a high-level executive of the auction house, which gave him hope of promotion and salary increase.
Lin Xiao entered the venue smoothly, but in this way, the matter about Nuo Xiaoyue's car was sidetracked. Lin Xiao had no excuse to ask further questions, so he could only give up temporarily.
The people in the venue were obviously divided into several different circles, and people from each circle gathered together to discuss topics belonging to their own circle.
Lin Xiao looked around and saw a few acquaintances in a certain circle. Zhang Jinrui, Lei Ming, and Li Zhao who had just met in the parking lot were gathering with a few people as young as them. When they came in, they cast a hostile look without exception.
Lin Xiao smiled self-deprecatingly, and said to himself that he was really capable enough to offend a group of second and third generations of rich people, and trouble would be inevitable in the future.
"Lin Xiao, this way." Sun Mengting waved to Lin Xiao, beckoning him over.
"Why so slow?" Sun Mengting asked.
"I'm ashamed to say, if I didn't happen to meet Nuo Xiaoyue, I probably wouldn't be able to get in." Lin Xiao was dissatisfied, and his face was sullen when he spoke.
Sun Mengting stuck out her tongue mischievously: "I'm sorry, I forgot that you won't be allowed in without an invitation card. I should wait for you at the door."
There is a huge contrast between Sun Mengting's small movements of sticking out her tongue and her head, and her image and temperament. There is an indescribable beauty.
"Where is Zhao Ya?" Lin Xiao suddenly noticed that Zhao Ya was not here.
Hearing his question, Sun Mengting also looked around and said, "It's strange, the one who was still here just now disappeared after I called you."
At this time, Lin Xiao had no choice but to use his eyesight, which was far superior to ordinary people after training, to search for Zhao Ya's traces in the venue, and finally found Zhao Ya's figure among a group of people.
At this time, Zhao Ya was talking with two middle-aged men, and the wine glasses in his hands were still clinking from time to time, so he didn't look so innocent when he was at home.
Lin Xiao guessed that Zhao Ya should be listening to the news, so he said to Sun Mengting: "Maybe he went to the bathroom or went somewhere to play. There are so many people here, so they probably won't go out, so don't worry."
Hearing what Lin Xiao said, Sun Mengting nodded obediently.
"Everyone, please take your seats, the auction is about to begin."
The host on the stage spoke, and the people in the venue ended their conversation one after another and returned to their seats.
After everyone was seated, the host invited the senior executives of the auction house to the stage to give a speech.
Hearing this long talk made Lin Xiao drowsy, he was not in this kind of occasion, if it wasn't for the company of Sun Mengting, and the grand finale of this auction was his imperial green, he would have refused to come if he was beaten to death.
After the speech, the auction finally officially started, and the auctioneer asked the staff to present the first lot.
"Didn't you say that Nuo Xiaoyue is today's auctioneer?" Seeing that the auctioneer on the stage was not Nuo Xiaoyue, Lin Xiao asked Sun Mengting suspiciously.
Sun Mengting explained: "The front are all ordinary auction items, there is no need for Nuo Xiaoyue to come on stage, she will come out at the back. What's the matter? You are so anxious to see her."
Hearing Sun Mengting's slightly jealous answer, Lin Xiao couldn't laugh or cry. He could only lament that Sun Mengting's associative ability was really good. He just asked casually, and Sun Mengting could think of other places.
"Later, if you see something you are interested in, just bid, we are not short of money." Sun Mengting said proudly.
Lin Xiao smiled wryly, he suddenly had the illusion that he was following a rich woman and eating soft food.
The first few auction items were relatively ordinary, and everyone in the venue behaved very ordinary. Fortunately, there were no unsold items, and each item was sold at a price slightly higher than the reserve price.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the fifth lot, and there were a total of eight lots in the audience. Lin Xiao's imperial green was the finale, so it was naturally placed at the end.However, this fifth item has already begun to have a certain value, and the people in the venue who were drowsy or chattering at first are now cheered up.
"This is a dragon-shaped jade pendant, provided by an old gentleman. It is said that only the successive patriarchs of a declining family were qualified to wear it. After that family fell, under an extremely accidental situation, this old gentleman got it. .” The auctioneer introduced the fifth lot.
After another compliment, the auctioneer opened the sandalwood box containing the dragon-shaped jade pendant.
The moment the box was opened, Lin Xiao suddenly felt a shock, and the qi in his body began to surge uncontrollably, as if it had formed a certain resonance with the jade pendant on the stage.
Lin Xiao faintly felt that this dragon-shaped jade pendant seemed to have some inexplicable and unclear connection with him.
"The base price of the dragon-shaped jade pendant is 100 million, and the price will increase by [-] each time."
"150."
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone called the price immediately, and directly added 50 yuan, which was not the case for the previous auctions.
Lin Xiao knew the bidder, and it was Lei Ming who had fought against him before.
Lei Ming showed an aura of certainty towards this jade pendant, which made Lin Xiao feel even more strange.
Lei Ming is considered well-known in the East China Sea. With his bid, several people who were originally interested in the jade pendant retreated immediately. They didn't want to offend Lei Ming with a piece of jade pendant.
"150 million for the second time." The auctioneer shouted vigorously.
Seeing that another deal was about to be completed, Lin Xiao raised the sign in his hand: "200 million."
Lin Xiao's asking price caused a lot of exclamation in the venue, and many people turned their heads to look at him. They all wanted to see who dared to challenge Lei Ming.
Lei Ming's face was livid. He was about to close the deal, but he was suddenly interrupted by someone, which made him very upset.
"300 million!" Lei Ming bid again, causing another exclamation from the audience.
In the eyes of those people, Lei Ming was fighting against Qi, and the jade pendant was worth 200 million at most.
But something that surprised them even more happened. As soon as Lei Ming's voice fell, and before the auctioneer had time to speak, Lin Xiao's voice sounded again immediately.
"500."
Lin Xiao is going all out, and now the true energy in his body is getting stronger and stronger, he must take this jade pendant down.
The auctioneer was about to sing out the price, but Lei Mingteng stood up and gestured to the auctioneer.
This auctioneer is also a smart person. When he saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately stopped talking, and at the same time, he gave the staff on the sidelines a wink, and the staff immediately ran to the back.
"You're poor, what right do you have to challenge me? If you have money, you can just ask for a price?" Lei Ming yelled at Lin Xiao.
"Lei Ming, your family is not the only one rich in Donghai. I will guarantee Lin Xiao as the next head of the Sun family." Before Lin Xiao could speak, Sun Mengting spoke first. She couldn't stand someone insulting Lin Xiao.
"Hiss... the Sun family."
Sun Mengting's words once again attracted a lot of attention, and at the same time, many people gasped.
Most of the people present were from Donghai, so they had naturally heard of the Sun family name, but Sun Mengting was relatively low-key, so most of the people here saw Sun Mengting for the first time.
"Hehe." Lei Ming sneered: "I want to guarantee it, but I will talk about it after you really become the head of the Sun family. Right now, you are not qualified."
Lei Ming's words were indeed correct. If Sun Mengting was really the head of the Sun family now and wanted to vouch for Lin Xiao, there would naturally be no problem, but the identity of the next head of the family would be a bit embarrassing.
Before she really became the head of the family, it was full of countless variables.
"I can vouch for Mr. Lin." When Sun Mengting didn't know how to answer, another cold voice came into everyone's ears clearly.
"Miss Nuo, thank you." After seeing the owner of the voice clearly, Lin Xiao didn't say anything else, just thank you.
Lei Ming, who was still extremely arrogant at first, saw that it was Nuo Xiaoyue who was speaking, his arrogance disappeared immediately, and his whole body went limp, as if he were a different person from just now.
This situation was very similar to the situation in the coffee shop that day, which made Lin Xiao a little more curious about Nuo Xiaoyue.

"Miss Nuo, shouldn't you be preparing inside?" Lin Xiao directly asked the question in his heart.
"I forgot some documents in the car, I went to get them." Nuo Xiaoyue replied with a smile.
"Car?" Lin Xiao remembered that when they met last time, Nuo Xiaoyue said that she didn't have a driver's license, so she didn't understand why she had a car now.
