At this moment, everyone’s gaze at the auction venue was fixed on the young man, Ye Luo, with most people internally speculating whether he had lost his mind to do such a thing.

Shi Yanran, who was sitting nearby, was also looking at Ye Luo at this time, while Mingyue frowned slightly, murmuring, "This guy must have a screw loose."

"It’s this bastard!"

Shen Mo, standing behind Shen Yunfei, recognized Ye Luo instantly, his eyes immediately flashing with icy coldness, fists clenching involuntarily, followed by a cold smile appearing on his lips.

"A guy who doesn’t know whether he’s alive or dead, daring to offend Shen Yunfei, you’re looking for your own death."

Shen Mo felt a secret satisfaction within, knowing full well the temper of the Shen Family’s eldest young master, the top young master of Zhonghai, Shen Yunfei, as he was his lackey and a distantly related member of the Shen Family.

"Sister, is Brother Ye trying to clear the way for you?"

Liu Xiner’s big eyes looked at Liu Shiyun next to her and spoke.

And Liu Shiyun’s dark eyes swept towards Ye Luo, reflecting an unusual gleam.

"Sister, Brother Ye wouldn’t have fallen for you, and that’s why he’s jealous, right?"

Liu Xiner’s eyes twinkled with a sly glint as she teased with a chuckle.

Blushing, Liu Shiyun’s eyes flickered with a shy expression, and she said nothing.

At this time, Shen Yunfei’s profound gaze swept over Ye Luo; his expression was unreadable, and after looking at the auctioneer, he simply stated, "Forty million!"

Seeing Shen Yunfei raising his bid by five million once again, everyone’s gaze shifted towards him, all the while wondering whether the youngster Ye Luo would continue to raise the price.

"Forty-five million!"

Indeed...

No sooner had Shen Yunfei raised the bid than Ye Luo immediately followed suit, adding five million in one go, causing the gaze of everyone present to flicker.

Now, all eyes in the hall were on these two individuals, all eagerly anticipating the unfolding drama.

"Fifty million!"

Shen Yunfei’s expression darkened slightly as he said this.

"Sixty million!"

The next second, the voice of Ye Luo rang out, this time directly increasing the bid by ten million, shocking everyone present once more.

The entire auction venue was abuzz with talk about Ye Luo, speculating on what his motivations might be for such a bold move.

Hearing Ye Luo raise the bid by ten million in one breath, Shen Yunfei’s face finally took on a displeased look as he glanced deeply at Ye Luo and said, "Friend, may I ask which family’s young master are you? I don’t seem to recognize you."

"It’s quite normal not to recognize each other, because I don’t recognize you either."

Ye Luo looked at Shen Yunfei, the whites of his teeth faintly showing as he revealed a brilliant smile.

At this moment, a young man behind Shen Yunfei leaned close and whispered something in his ear, causing Shen Yunfei’s eyes to narrow, glancing at Ye Luo and Ling Qingya next to him.

"So it’s the Ye Family’s eldest young master, I was wondering why there was such audacity. However, I seem to have heard that the Ye Family has encountered some trouble and shouldn’t be able to produce so much money now, could it be that you intend to have your fiancée, Miss Ling Qingya, CEO of the Ling Corporation, to pay?"

Shen Yunfei spoke in a tone as placid as water, yet his words reached the ears of everyone present, causing all eyes to turn towards Ye Luo, their expressions filled with surprise. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Those who knew Ye Luo were naturally aware of his identity, while those who did not were all wearing expressions of surprise.

The Ye Family, once one of Zhonghai’s four major families, was powerful and considered a wealthy and prestigious clan in the entire region. Everyone present knew this. However, with the death of the Family Head of the Ye Family and the simultaneous disappearance of his only son and daughter-in-law, the Ye Family quickly fell from grace.

Assets were either consumed by others or businesses closed down, effectively removing the Ye Family from Zhonghai’s elite, and naturally, many had heard of this Young Master Ye. No one expected him to appear here today and foolishly compete with the Shen Family’s heir for the auction item, while their gazes turned to Ling Qingya, flashing with strange light.

"Miss Ling is actually this guy’s fiancée. This guy has really kept it a secret!"

Nie Wenling couldn’t help but snort with arrogance.

Nie Wenyu, on the other hand, remained calm and expressionless.

With Shen Yunfei’s words, the spotlight fell on Ye Luo, who remained indifferent, while Ling Qingya beside him showed a slight change in expression.

"Young Master Shen is overthinking it. Am I, the mighty heir of the Ye Family, unable to afford even these tens of millions? I’m not the type to live off others."

Ye Luo pursed his lips and said.

"Really? I’d like to see how much money Young Master Ye has in his hands."

Shen Yunfei smiled faintly, then continued to raise his bid.

"Eighty million!"

In an instant, Shen Yunfei added twenty million, shocking everyone present.

He tossed out twenty million with ease and nonchalance, truly worthy of being deemed Zhonghai’s top young master.

However, the true value of the Lovers’ Heart was, at most, ten million, and the price had now soared to eighty million, far exceeding its value. They all began to speculate whether Ye Luo would continue to bid. If he did, it would mean he was truly challenging the Shen Family’s heir.

"One hundred million!"

The clear voice from Ye Luo left the crowd completely stunned; this guy was really determined to go against Shen Family’s heir to the end.

By now, Shen Yunfei’s expression had turned dark, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and his fists clenched involuntarily, a sharp aura flashing by in an instant.

Whew~

Shen Yunfei then took a deep breath, smiling slightly at Ye Luo, "Young Master Ye, you’re impressive. In light of your great affection for the Lovers’ Heart, I’ll withdraw from the competition. I wouldn’t want others to say I took what someone loves."

After saying this, Shen Yunfei glanced at Ling Qingya, "Miss Ling, congratulations on having such a wonderful fiancé who is willing to spend one hundred million for you."

Following that, Shen Yunfei’s gaze shifted to Liu Shiyun, "Shiyun, don’t worry. Next time, I will give you a gift even more special than the Lovers’ Heart, representing my feelings for you."

Having said this, Shen Yunfei took his group and sat down at a nearby seat.

With the final strike of the auctioneer’s hammer, the Lovers’ Heart jade jewelry necklace was awarded to Ye Luo for a steep price of one hundred million, successfully impressing all the distinguished figures present as he had done at the previous Han Group’s cocktail party.

"Did you buy this item to give to me?"

Ling Qingya suddenly turned to Ye Luo and asked.

"Of course, you are my fiancée, aren’t you? If I don’t give it to you, am I supposed to give it to someone else?"

Ye Luo said with a laugh, but in truth, his main reason for nonchalantly spending one hundred million to bid on the pair of jade jewelry necklaces was because of Liu Shiyun.
