Chapter 528: Donating Antiques
Translator: 549690339
“Lili, we’re so close, and we have a common enemy. Shouldn’t you introduce me to the young miss you’re talking about?”
Li Meimei’s days had not been good these past two days. After getting the marriage certificate with Chen Tao, many of Li Meimei’s views had changed.
She even thought about her previous failed marriage. It was precisely because she had failed before that Li Meimei was unwilling to walk down the path of divorce this time. Of course, Li Meimei wanted more things from Chen Tao and the Chen family to prepare for the future.
She didn’t want to remarry, and she didn’t want to leave either. However, Li Meimei knew that a woman like her would feel safer if she tied her money to herself.
“Meimei, we are good sisters. When something good happens, we will not forget you. When Miss comes to China, I’ll definitely introduce you to her. Right, the Chen family just snatched an antique that Li Muyao liked. Meimei, do you want to transfer it to me? I’ll add another 10% to the price you bid for.
How about it?”
Chu Lili and Chen Jiao had already arranged for someone to join them, but halfway through, the young lady sent a message to Chu Lili, telling her to give up after one or two rounds.
Therefore, Chu Lili’s side wasn’t as convenient as Li Meimei’s.
However, the young miss wanted that antique very much because it was what Li Muyao liked.
“Give it to you? Lili, you’re making things difficult for me. You know that I’m here today to represent the Chen family, but Chen Tao didn’t come and asked me to do it.
Besides, so many people at the scene saw that I’ve already taken a photo. If I give it to you again, I won’t be able to explain it to Chen Tao and the Chen family. Why don’t you wait for the next one? Can I help you take a picture directly?”
Chen Tao had already apologized to Huo Jiling, but the Chen family still didn’t want him to lose Huo Jiling as a friend, so they asked Li Meimei to participate in the charity auction and bid for the things that Li Muyao liked. Then, they would give them to Huo Jiling.
“Alright, thank you, Meimei.”
Li Meimei smiled gently, and so did Chu Lili. However, both of them knew that the other party would never treat them as good sisters. They were just plastic lovers.
This made Li Meimei even more resentful of Chu Lili. At the same time, she was also curious about the young lady who grew up in a pile of US dollars. Moreover, Li Meimei really suspected that the young lady was Miss Meisha, who had been playing with Chu Ranran just now.
But it didn’t look like it.
If she was really Chu Lili’s daughter, Chu Ranran would know about it.
No matter who it was, if Li Meimei wanted to live a better life and have more things in her hands, she had to continue to cooperate with Chu Lili.
“Hu! The senior was right. The toilet was indeed the best place to gather gossip. Listen, Chu Ranran and that little Meisha, Li Meimei and Chu Lili, the four of them were simply a palace drama!”
At this moment, two girls walked out from the men’s washroom next to the women’s washroom. They were Lu Siyun and Ye Shiyu.
“However, Chu Lili and Li Meimei were too quiet to hear what they said at the end. “Ye Shiyu looked at Lu Siyun and said.
“Little Meisha and Chu Ranran must be because Yaoyao ignored Chu Ranran. It can be seen that Yaoyao really doesn’t like Chu Ranran. However, I heard from others that Yaoyao used to like Churan very much and even treated her like a little sister. There’s a rumor in the entertainment industry that Churan, the rich lady, brought Li Muyao into the entertainment industry to invest.
I feel that Yaoyao should be playing with Churanran’s investments to earn money. Come to think of it, Yaoyao has a good fortune personally approved by Old Mrs. Huo. Moreover, after interacting with Yaoyao, we all know that Yaoyao is a very good person. Whether it’s her personality or her way of dealing with people, she’s very good in all aspects.
It was hard for no one to dislike a girl like Yaoyao. Also, Yaoyao really had a
charm that made people want to get close to her. “Lu Siyun, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation but hadn’t heard everything, started to fart again.
But Li Muyao’s words could be seen from the shape of her mouth.
“You’re right. Should we mention it to Yaoyao?” “No need, Yaoyao. She should know better than us.”
“That’s true.”
Only then did Ye Shiyu and Lu Siyun officially head to the female washroom to settle their personal matters.
Li Muyao didn’t know that so many things had happened in the toilet, and she was the main character in the crowd. The singing and dancing of the celebrities only lasted for 15 to 16 minutes. It passed very quickly, and then the charity auction continued.
Li Muyao didn’t want to be followed again, so she asked Huo Jiling to get another sign. She didn’t follow the bidding from the beginning, but when Li Muyao felt that the price was about the same, she raised the bid when the host started counting down.
Li Muyao had managed to win the bid by surprise. She hadn’t seen the two items in the auction book before. The reason why Li Muyao had added the bid was because when the host introduced the two small antiques, he had said that the boxes containing the antiques were also antiques.
That was why Li Muyao wanted to take photos of her, and Huo Jiling even asked her why she did that.
“Isn’t that how it is on TV?” Li Muyao answered directly. Many things were found in the hidden compartment of the box. Grandma Huo said that it was a jade key, so it must not be big. Moreover, even if it was a jade key, it might not be a jade key. In short, only antiques with boxes are more likely to hide jade keys.”
It was indeed the case in ancient TV dramas and movies. Moreover, it did not only appear in ancient TV dramas. Even modern furniture from the 1970s and 1980s would have hidden compartments to facilitate the owner to collect some valuable items.
Huo Jiling immediately laughed.”
Huo Jiling really couldn’t understand Li Muyao’s train of thought, but he thought about it and agreed. Huo Jiling and his brother had known about the jade key for a long time. So, even if one of them was in China and the other was abroad, they would go to any auction related to Chinese antiques. They would even bring back a lot of things every time.
He would only donate the antiques to the National Museum after carefully observing that there were no jade keys.
Ever since Huo Jiling started his business, he would donate at least three to five antiques to the Jin City Museum in China every year. In the past five years, it had been even worse. Every year, there would be at least ten antiques. The more expensive antique was auctioned in United Kingdom and cost nearly 20 million pounds.
If converted to Chinese currency, it would be over a hundred million yuan..
