Chapter 293 -292: For her, spending a fortune!

The young masters in the private box showed no interest in the dance performed by Chu Siyao and Xia Yiwan.

One of them said, “The A&M charity gala is really going downhill, resorting to auctioning off two dances just to squeeze out more charitable funds.”

“Auctioning two dances is bad enough, but they should at least bring in famous and influential young ladies or stunning beauties, right?”

“Chu Siyao’s family background is just barely passable, but she lacks in looks. As for the other one, a nouveau riche’s daughter, she doesn’t even qualify as a socialite. Even if she has some beauty, nobody would pay to dance with her, would they?”

“Who would be that fucking stupid?”

Yanxi downed the liquid in his glass in one gulp, then smashed the glass towards that young master.

The guy jumped in fright.

“Brother Yan, what did I say wrong?”

Yanxi raised an eyebrow, “Who are you calling a fucking idiot?”

Young Master, “I wasn’t talking about you!”

The young master hadn’t even thought to associate Yanxi with Xia Yiwan. With Yanxi’s status, and all the beauties throwing themselves at him, he wouldn’t give a second glance to Xia Yiwan, would he?

Xia Yiwan bravely took the stage.

Zheng Yunche, watching from below as Xia Yiwan took to the stage alongside Chu Siyao for the auction, simply couldn’t bear to look.

Xia Yiwan was truly overestimating herself. If no one bid for her dance, wouldn’t she lose face all the way to the Pacific Ocean?

She couldn’t even begin to compare to Chu Siyao, could she?

However, since breaking up with him, Xia Yiwan seemed to have become more beautiful.

Standing there, with bright eyes and white teeth, her appearance was radiant and charming, and she was so lively and striking that she attracted all the attention.

Zheng Yunche’s Adam’s apple bobbed.

All men have their baser instincts. When he dated Xia Yiwan, he never thought highly of her, but he also never got her.

There was always some regret in his heart.

The bidding for the two dances started soon after.

First was Chu Siyao’s dance. Other than Zheng Mengxuan, several young masters called out their bids.

Ultimately, Zheng Mengxuan bid ten million and secured the opportunity to dance with Chu Siyao.

One dance for ten million was more expensive than many of the auction items.

Chu Siyao was suddenly the center of attention.

The happiness in her smile couldn’t be hidden.

After she danced with Zheng Mengxuan, it was time for Xia Yiwan’s turn.

The auctioneer started the bidding at one hundred thousand, but all was silent below the stage.

Not a single person bid.

Xia Yiwan had anticipated such a situation. After an initial embarrassment, she no longer felt awkward.

She raised her hand, “Five hundred thousand. I’ll bid on my own dance. Can I leave the stage now?”

She would consider this five hundred thousand as a charitable donation.

Hearing Xia Yiwan bid for her own dance, Chu Siyao and many of the famous and influential young ladies couldn’t help but laugh.

How utterly humiliating! She was always trying to ingratiate herself into upper society with no connections, and look, not a single person was willing to come to her aid!

“Xia Yiwan, I think you might as well just go with that young master who bid six hundred thousand,” Chu Siyao said, “After all, that’s all you’re worth!”

A group of famous and influential young ladies started to giggle behind their hands.

Xia Yiwan’s cheeks burned with embarrassment.

Just as she was about to raise her bid again, a lazy voice came from the VIP box on the second floor, “Fifty million.”

The moment the words were spoken, the banquet hall fell into a stunned, dead silence.

Everyone couldn’t believe their ears.

Because none of the auction items at tonight’s charity gala had even gone for over thirty million.

And now, a dance from Xia Yiwan had actually shot up to fifty million.

This was unbelievable!

Not only were the people in the banquet hall stunned, but even the young masters and famous young ladies in the private rooms, who had seen Yanxi call out the bid with their own eyes, were utterly astonished.

The young master who had previously spoken ill of Xia Yiwan’s eyes narrowed, “Brother Yan, could you have made a mistake?”

Yanxi stood up from the sofa, leisurely fastened the buttons of his suit, and with peach blossom eyes swept a glance toward the young master, “When has my woman become your business to comment on?”

The crowd was in shock!!!

Was Xia Yiwan actually Yanxi’s woman?

Since when?

What happened to Young Master Yan’s taste?

The famous young ladies in the private room who secretly adored Yanxi were almost grinding their teeth to pieces.

Breaking their heads, they couldn’t understand how they had lost to the daughter of a nouveau riche?

The host, upon hearing the bid from the VIP private room on the second floor, excitedly asked, “The distinguished guest confirms the bid of fifty million for Miss Xia’s dance?”

Yanxi, “If you have a problem with your ears, go to the hospital sooner rather than later!”

The host didn’t care about Yanxi’s sarcasm and quickly hammered down, fearing Yanxi might change his mind.

“Miss Xia’s dance for fifty million!”

Chu Siyao’s eyes widened in disbelief when she heard someone had spent fifty million on Xia Yiwan’s dance.

Had that person gone mad?

Did they have so much money they had nowhere else to spend it but on Xia Yiwan?

Her dance was one million, yet Xia Yiwan’s reached fifty million.

This was a direct slap in her face!

Chu Siyao’s complexion turned from pale to purple instantly.

“Cousin, I think the man who bid for Xia Yiwan’s dance must be ugly as sin. Don’t worry, that man’s definitely got mental issues, or maybe he’s some kind of pervert or something. Xia Yiwan being targeted by such a person would mean she’s not going to have an easy time in the future—”

Before Zheng Mengxuan could finish speaking, suddenly a tall figure descended from the second floor.

Because he had paid fifty million for a dance, everyone in the banquet hall thought he must be out of his mind, and they were all curious about who he was.

So, the moment Yanxi walked down from the second floor, he almost drew the attention of everyone in the hall.

The man wore a gemstone-blue suit, the top two buttons of his shirt undone, revealing a delicate collarbone.

His handsome and bewitching face carried an enchanting smile, his peach blossom eyes slightly upturned, captivating and heart-stirring.

Seeing Yanxi descend, Xia Yiwan’s mind was in a daze, her hands subconsciously clenched into fists.

Was it really that rideshare driver?

No, no, no!

If he had spent fifty million on her dance, he absolutely couldn’t be just a rideshare driver!

Had she mistook someone else for him last time?

Hadn’t she left him a note after that evening, agreeing that they would be even and go their separate ways?

What was he doing spending a fortune on her dance?

Did he have too much money and nowhere to spend it?

Xia Yiwan would rather embarrass herself than have any further dealings with this gentleman!

Seeing Yanxi walk toward the stage, Chu Siyao’s eyes widened.

“Brother, is that Young Master Yan?”

The Yan family was a famed household in the capital, not even on the same level as the Chu family.

They were a top-notch aristocratic family that the Chu family couldn’t even reach if they tried!

Yanxi was not only born into a prestigious family, he also had a handsome face that women adored, and many women who aspired to climb the social ladder had never succeeded—

How could such an excellent scion from a top family take a fancy to Xia Yiwan?

And to make such an extravagant bid!
