Chapter 148 - 148 Price
148 Price
Ji Xue struggled to break free from his greasy hand and begged aggrievedly, “CEO Wang, believe me. You won’t lose out this time! I know the person in the private room next door. That woman is petty and sinister. She won’t give away what she likes!”
“Next door? Who is it?” Wang Hai looked at her distrustfully, but he did not continue to stop her.
Ji Xue found a loophole and quickly wrote six million on the machine.
The host was about to hammer the last time when the machine in his hand beeped at the last moment. He hurriedly stopped. After seeing the bid on it, he announced excitedly again, “The VIP in Private Room Four bid six million!”
Wang Hai stared at her in shock, wishing he could slap her immediately! This woman was not worth him spending so much money for her!
Ji Xue could not be bothered to coax him. She waited expectantly for the host to continue reading out the bid for the private room next door.
She did not expect Shi Man to take the initiative to withdraw at this critical moment. Therefore, after the wooden hammer landed on the table three times, she was still in a daze.
The host did not expect the bidding to be so intense today. Thinking of the large sum of commission was about to be transferred to his account, he immediately said excitedly, “Congratulations to the VIP in Private Room Four for buying this piece of wood for six million. Now, let us witness a miracle together!”
In the private room, Shi Man held Shi Mu’s hand tightly until the thing successfully belonged to the private room next door.
“Sister, didn’t you want this? Why did you give up? Our family doesn’t lack this bit of money. So what if we lose it all?” Shi Mu asked in confusion.
When did his sister learn to be diligent? In the past, she would not even blink when she spent this little money.
Yuan Yi blinked at Shi Mu in amusement. After enduring it for a while, he couldn’t help but tease, “The Shi family wasn’t handed over to you. Instead, they were handed over to your eldest brother and second brother to manage together. It’s really the wisest decision Uncle Shi has made.”
“Hey, what do you mean? Is this something a brother should say?” Shi Mu immediately pursed his lips in dissatisfaction. He knew that he was not as capable as his eldest brother and second brother, but he had already tried his best to close the gap!
Moreover, he was only spending money on his sister. Shi Mu firmly believed that even if those two fellows were around, they would definitely make the same decision as him.
Yuan Yi toasted him comfortingly and smiled. “Alright, alright. Just take it that I said something wrong and I apologize to Big Brother, okay?”
Shi Mu snorted and drank with him arrogantly. He raised his head and said, “That’s more like it. But I’m serious. Why didn’t you continue raising the price just now?”
Shi Man raised her eyebrows and gestured for him to look at the screen.
The host was holding a knife and slashing at the wood that had just been confirmed. When everyone saw the material inside, they immediately gasped.
Six million for such a useless piece of wood. Everyone could not help but feel strong sympathy for the VIP in Private Room Four.
Wang Hai’s expression was extremely ugly. He glared fiercely at the dumbfounded woman. There was no longer half a doting and loving look in his eyes; there was only strong disgust.
He slammed the table and stood up. “Pay for this piece of wood yourself. I won’t help you pay!”
With that, he turned around and was about to leave the private room when Ji Xue came back to her senses. She hurriedly grabbed Wang Hai’s hand and knelt on the ground to beg without thinking. “CEO Wang, you can’t leave me alone. I was brought in by you. If I can’t pay later, you’ll lose face!”
“You!” Wang Hai knew this very well, so he couldn’t take this lying down.
Outsiders did not know the truth about the private room just now. They would only think that after he bought the item and realized that it was trash, he had to escape. At that time, if others discussed it behind his back, it would be him, Wang Hai. It had nothing to do with her, Ji Xue!
Ji Xue knew that she had touched his weakness, but she also knew that she would probably have to pay a huge price to get rid of Wang Hai this time. She could not help but hate Shi Man even more.
As long as this woman appeared, she would not have a comfortable day. Could it be that Shi Man was the bane of her existence and specially came to oppose her?
Wang Hai took a deep breath and calmed down. He looked down at the woman kneeling on the ground and sneered. “Alright, very good. I can help you pay the bill, but you have to accompany me for a month. This month, you have to do whatever I ask you to do. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude to you!”
“Alright, I promise you.” Ji Xue lowered her head, hiding the disgust in her eyes.
She might as well die if she had to accompany this disgusting and greasy man for a month!
However, in order to resolve the current predicament and continue to survive in this circle in the future, she could only grit her teeth and agree to let this bastard take advantage of her for nothing!
The staff quickly sent the cut wood over. Ji Xue got up from the ground and reached out to ask Wang Hai for his bank card. However, when she saw the sinister glint in the man’s eyes, she shivered fiercely.
