The buttons for bid located near the sofa where Jenny was sitting, a row of ten blue buttons with number one to ten and a row of ten green ones. She pushed the blue button with number one randomly and five hundred and fifty thousand yuan, the bid price of their box were shown on the electronic screen.
âNumber one for adding fifty thousand yuan, number two for adding one hundred thousand yuan and number three for adding one hundred and fifty thousand yuan, right?â Jenny looked up and asked.
Luke nodded, âYes.â
âWhat about the row of green buttons?â Jenny was a little curious.
âThey represent the multiple of the present price you are going to bid.â
âWhat?â Jenny drew back her hand with a rush.
âIs this really an auction? It is more dreadful than gambling.â
For a while after Luke, no one bid for the ring. When the number five hundred and fifty thousand were flickering on the electronic screen and the countdown at the bottom right had been number two, a big number lighted up on the screen.
âOne million and one hundred thousand yuan.â
It was from the next-door box.
Jenny had a look at the green buttons spontaneously and swallowed, âThe person must have high aspirations on the ring!â
After such a high price, no one bid anymore. Since such a small ring couldnât be more useful except being collected in a box, it seemed a little modest for most vulgar people here.
âBid,â Luke still said tonelessly.
He didnât told Jenny how much did he want to add, so she still pushed the blue button with number one and the highest price became one million one hundred and fifty thousand yuan.
However, the number one million and five hundred thousand soon appeared on the screen. It was still from the next-door box.
âBid.â
âOne million five hundred and fifty thousand yuan.â
âTwo million yuan.â
âBid.â
In the box, except the voice of the host from the loudspeaker, only left the toneless word âbidâ from Luke. Jenny couldnât see how persistent was Luke for the ring from his face. She just added fifty thousand yuan unhurriedly each time and he didnât react to it. It seemed that he was bidding against the next-door people rather than for the ring.
âFive million yuan.â
âBid.â
âReally?â exclaimed Jenny. A ring with the starting price of two hundred thousand yuan now had increased over twenty times of its price. She was ignorant of antiques, but the high price was really ridiculous.â
âBid.â Luke turned his head and cast a glance at her with a relaxed look. âWhat do you want to eat after the auction?â
At the moment, Jenny was distracted and pushed wrongly to the green button.
âTen million yuan from box 802.â
As the voice of the hostâs clear words came from the loudspeaker, Jenny was stiff and stared at her hand with open mouth and blank brain.
It seemed that Luke felt nothing about it since he had no response. Withdrawing the gaze from Jenny, he turned his head to the electronic screen.
âTen million for the first time. Ten million for the second time. Ten million for the third time. Thatâs the deal.â
The final price of this gold-plated green jade ring is ten million yuan.
At first, Jenny thought that she had done a wrong thing. However, while they were waiting for the transaction, Luke was very cozy and said with a joking tone, âIf you had added fifty thousand yuan again, Iâm afraid that the final price would have exceeded ten million yuan.â
Jenny was slightly stunned. âWhy?â
âYou regard fifty thousand yuan as a low price and so does your opponent. Therefore, he wouldnât feel too much for adding fifty thousand yuan. Many a little makes a mickle. It is possible to be ten million yuan by adding fifty thousand yuan each time. He wouldnât have the same sense of gaping directly from five million yuan to ten million yuan if he just adds fifty thousand yuan each time. Adding more fifty thousand yuan wouldnât do much harm. That is the mental activity of a human.â
The voice of Luke was not very loud but powerful and Jenny understood his words right away.
Hesitating for a while, she asked, âWhy didnât you told me earlier?â
Maybe they could make the deal at the price of five million yuan.
âThereâs no need. The higher price the ring is, he would value it more. Todayâs auction is not only an auction.â
Luke said these carelessly. When the host brought the ring to them followed by security officers, Luke wore the ring directly to the finger of Jenny. It fit well as if it were tailored to Jenny.
Jenny felt her hand very heavy. It was like carrying a safe box. Ten million yuan? Are you kidding?
âWell, you shouldnât give it to me,â she said with hesitation.
âWear it.â
Then Luke patted her hand to let her sit down. âWait me for a moment. I have to deal with some business.â
âWhy not take me with you?â said pouty Jenny with an aggrieved expression, âMaybe you want to do some underhand things against me?â
Luke looked gentle in his eyes.
âIâm going to discuss some business things about boss Bao with Sky, so we should avoid being noticed. If you are interested, Iâll tell you when Iâm back.â
Jenny laughed. âI was joking. You go.â
In fact, she had realized that todayâs auction was more like a friend-making party. Luke treated boss Bao very differently. Whether they âencounteredâ
at the door or they took a fancy to the same antique, these showed that Luke was very interested with boss Bao.
Sky may be the helpful intermediary.
Leaving the box, Luke looked for Sky to the planned place. Their boxes located at the second floor while the place they were going to meet was a lounge at the third floor.

As he knocked at the door, there was no response, so he entered directly.
Some human voice was heard from the toilet.
âMiss Song, since it is said that most stars donât have scars, how did you got the scar on your back? It looks obvious.â
âWell, I was bit by a giant salamander when I swam in the water to save a person in an aquarium. This kind of fish can bite flesh out of a human, so the scar remains to today.
â Since plastic surgery is developed now, why donât you have a try?â
âThatâs all right. If I cover my back with clothes, nobody shall notice the scar. I donât want to suffer the pain of plastic surgery.â
âMiss Song, you are so kind! Who on earth were worthy of your save in the aquarium?â
âIt was my brother, who was not able to swim. I couldnât think much at that time, so I just tried to save him when he fell down to the water.â
As they kept talking in the toilet, Luke was standing there without a slight move, shocked.
Then as the door of the toilet was opened, Sky came out clearing up the clothes with her head down. Then when she looked up and saw Luke, she was frightened. âLuke, when...when did you arrived?â
âDid the aquarium name Polaris Aquarium?â
The voice of Luke reverberated in the whole lounge. His face was stiff with unbelievable expression, which rarely appeared.
