Evil Husband, Glutton Wife: Buy Miss Piggy, Get Free Little Buns

Chapter 575 - The Queen of Diamonds (1)

How can these socialites and wealthy businessmen miss this chance to brag their wealth and financial capabilities? Each of the colored diamonds were spectacular in their own, since there was no other collection that could be seen in the world.

$300,000 as the starting bidding price? How did Xiao Xing manage to get a hand on these precious jewels? No doubt Xiao Xing would surely be one of the ric.h.e.s.t companies. Surely their name would be known not only in the country, but also throughout the world soon.

Everyone received a small placard with a number on it. Those who would like to bid to buy would only need to raise their numbers and announce their bidding price.

"Presenting the first diamond in our Rainbow Collection, the Eternal Heart." Meng Yanran announced, signalling the start of the auction.

The first jewel was about to be presented. The whole banquet hall was slowly dimmed, focusing the spotlight on the stage.

On the huge monitor behind the emcees, a short commercial featuring Luo Qingqing wearing the stunning red diamond on her hand was played.

The guests held their breaths as they watched the thirty second advertis.e.m.e.nt of the said jewel. They all thought that Luo Qingqing's passion complimented the red diamond on her hand.

"Oh my goodness, I thought Luo Qingqing didn't have any projects anymore. Who would have thought I would see my goddess today?" Someone commented from the crowd, which was followed by several praises from the other guests.

Xing Yiyue's face paled once she saw the advertis.e.m.e.nt featuring one of her rivals in show business. Luo Qingqing had cut off her ties with the company that housed both of them a couple of weeks ago. She didn't understand why Luo Qingqing had done such a thing, despite the fact that she would have to pay a severance fee for breaking her contract.

Those who were working in show business thought that Luo Qingqing took an extremely reckless move that could hurt her career. It would also make it hard for her to gain projects and endors.e.m.e.nts after this. In the end, Luo Qingqing signed a contract with a small entertainment company and had kept a low profile since then.

Now, as Xing Yiyue watched Luo Qingqing's video that was gaining everyone's attention, she realized that Luo Qingqing had managed to steal her spotlight once again by being Xiao Xing's brand ambassador.

This… wasn't she Feng Tianyi's sister-in-law? Why hadn't he considered her for this endors.e.m.e.nt? He even chose Luo Qingqing over her instead! What could Luo Qingqing do that she couldn't? Being the brand ambassador for Xiao Xing would surely earn her a fortune and significant fame.

Once the advertis.e.m.e.nt video finished playing, the stage lights suddenly dimmed before Luo Qingqing appeared pushing a cart with the red diamond ring enclosed in a special glass and stopped at the center of the stage.

"The diamond's red color symbolizes passion and power. It also symbolizes form and the ability to be flexible within our form. Our Eternal Heart ring weighs 5 carats. You may start bidding now." Yan Xie smiled at the crowd.

The gentlemen, as well as the wealthy socialites in the crowd started to bid on the red diamond.

"I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to see a red diamond in this lifetime." Lu Tianxin commented next to the empress as they watched the guest bid past a million dollars for the said piece.

Tang Moyu only shrugged. She had already expected this to happen. Feng Tianyi and Song Fengyan's hard work in securing the partnersh.i.p.s with other foreign jewel companies had surely paid off this time.

Red diamonds were so rare that there were only a handful of diamonds available in the market today. The more rare a diamond was, the more d.e.s.i.r.ed and valuable it would be.

"Do you want me to bid on it?" Ye Xiaozu asked Lu Tianxin. He wasn't fond of this kind of auctions, but he attended to show Tang Moyu the Ye family's support in her new venture. "I think it's nice. I haven't given you an engagement ring yet."

"Oh hush, you!" Lu Tianxin playfully, slapped his arm. "I don't need an engagement ring. A wedding ring will suffice."

"10 million dollars! Going once! Going twice! Sold!" They heard the emcee said, announcing the red diamond ring being sold to a rich entrepreneur from Shanghai.

"Well, I should say that Miss Tang will be receiving such a fortune tonight. Ten million dollars for one ring alone… Damn." Ye Xiaozu. He knew that the empress had a knack for making money, as if the ones she had already earned from the past wasn't enough for her.

Lu Tianxin only laughed at her fiance's words. Aside from sweet desserts, her cousin only had a huge appetite for earning more money.

Tang Moyu was one of those people whom Lu Tianxin knew wouldn't spend lavishly, especially on a whim. Wasn't this the reason why the empress's property in Peach Blossom Garden wasn't as excessive as the grand mansions and penthouses the other CEOs on her circle had?

"Not bad." Tang Moyu commented and hummed once the bidding was done. "I was expecting it to be sold for at least five million. I didn't think these people would want it that badly."

Meanwhile, Feng Tianhua turned to his wife and noticed her sour expression. Did she like the red diamond too? Was she upset that he didn't try to bid on it?

He took her hand in his and patted it affectionately.

"Yiyue, tell me if something caught your eye, okay? I'll try to get it for you."

Xing Yiyue only gave him an awkward smile. How would she ever allow herself to wear the same diamond ring Luo Qingqing had worn before her? Her pride wouldn't allow her to do so.
