Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School (WN)-Chapter 322 - Xiangyun Antique-store

Chapter 322 Xiangyun Antique-store

Yang Jianping knew that he shouldn’t have acted like that, so he didn’t argue with her, but he had to admit that Zhao Xiyuan had stolen his heart. He and Zhao Xiyuan had gotten married after they had been in love for three years, and they had affection towards each other, but men were visual animals. When Zhao Xiyuan’s appearance changed, he had been reluctant to bring her to attend all kinds of gatherings. Moreover, once he had become rich, he had entered a different social cycle. Many of the men around him had mistresses, and he had failed to resist the temptation, which resulted in the divorce with Zhao Xiyuan.

In the beginning, he had felt guilty, but every time that he saw Zhao Xiyuan’s fat body, he felt disgusted again. Gradually, he lost the sense of guilt. In fact, he had turned to Zhang Jiajia just for fun, but he had gotten tired of arguing with Zhao Xiyuan all the time, so he had finally made the decision to get divorced.

After the drama, Chen Meng and the others found their seats and went to sit down, while Xu Jinchen guided Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting to the appraiser.

After the appraisal, the Official Kiln Writing-brush Washer was proved to be real, and it was qualified to be put up for the auction. However, it was brought in really late, so it would be the last thing to be shown at the auction. Gu Ning didn’t care about that, because she just wanted to sell it for fun.

When they went back to the hall, Gu Ning’s gaze accidentally fell on a man and a woman. All of sudden, her eyes were full of animosity and coldness. The man and the woman were Qi Ziyue and Tang Yaxin. They were chatting with others.

“What’s wrong?” Leng Shaoting and Xu Jinchen asked Gu Ning when they noticed her sudden emotional change.

Gu Ning immediately went back to normal. “Nothing, I just saw two people that I hate.”

Gu Ning had thought about her reaction when she met Tang Yaxin and Qi Ziyue countless times before. She had thought that she could stay calm, but actually she couldn’t and all she wanted to do was kill them.

Leng Shaoting and Xu Jinchen didn’t ask further, but they knew that it couldn’t be that simple, because it seemed like Gu Ning wanted to kill someone. Qi Ziyue also sensed the cold glance which was full of hatred, but when he turned to search for it, he found nothing.

“What’s wrong?” Tang Yaxin asked.

“Nothing.” Qi Ziyue couldn’t figure it out, so he could only say that it was nothing.

At this time, celebrities were seated one after another because the auction was about to begin.

All the tables in the hall were round and there were three of them in a row. Each table had seating available for six people to sit together, but there were seven people in the group of Gu Ning, so there was a seat added at their round table.

The seats were arranged according to the attendees’ social status. As the young Lord of a well-known super-rich family in the capital, Xu Jinchen of course occupied one of the best positions. He and all his friends sat on the right side of the room in the second row.

Experts and senior officials all sat in the first row, and other senior officials along with super-rich families sat in the second row. However, very few of the very senior officials and super-rich families would come.

The Tang Family was arranged at the left side of the room in the third row, so there was a distance between them and Gu Ning.

Gu Ning didn’t want to think about Tang Yaxin and Qi Ziyue, so she intentionally sat with her back towards them. However, she couldn’t control her thoughts and couldn’t help thinking about them. Luckily, they didn’t notice her yet.

Before long, Gu Ning was attracted by an object shown at the auction. There were many things which could be put up for auction, like antiques, real estate, stores and so forth.

What attracted Gu Ning’s attention was the ninth object, which was the Xiangyun Antique-store. As it was described, this antique store was located at the antique street with a great location. Xiangyun Antique-store had a history of over 70 years, so it gained great fame in the capital. However, the owner of Xiangyun Antique-store had just lost his wife and son in a car accident. He felt great grief and lost his appetite for running the store, so he put it up for auction.

Gu Ning thought that it would be better if she had her own antique store, because there were many real antiques in her telepathic eye space. Although she had only found a dozen real antiques till now, it wasn’t necessary to sell only real antiques in an antique store. Many people would love to buy replicas too, because the price was much lower. Therefore, Gu Ning made up her mind to bid for Xiangyun Antique-store. The store wasn’t small, and was 86 square meters in size. It consisted of two facades with two floors, and the owner was selling it along with its foundation property.

At 2 pm, the auction began. A sexy, mature woman in a red split cheongsam walked onto the stage.

Many people immediately recognized her. She was precisely Zhao Xiyuan, who had argued with Zhang Jiajia just then.

Seeing Zhao Xiyuan, Yang Jianping fixed his eyes on her body. Zhang Jiajia was mad and pinched him heavily, but Yang Jianping still focused on Zhao Xiyuan and ignored Zhang Jiajia. Zhang Jiajia was furious but didn’t dare to make more noise.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to today’s auction! I’m Zhao Xiyuan, the chief auctioneer of the Detian Auction Company.”

Zhao Xiyuan stopped for a second before continuing. “There are supposed to be 12 objects on the list today, but we just added a new one. It’s an Official Kiln Writing-brush Washer from the Song Dynasty, so we have 13 objects that are all open for bid today.”

An Official Kiln Writing-brush Washer? Everyone was shocked, because it was highly valuable.

Especially those who loved calligraphy, they had natural fondness towards “the Four Treasures of Study”, so many of them were ready to bid for it.

“Alright, now let’s bid for the first object.”

When the first object was shown on the stage, the potential buyers all went to have a look in an orderly manner.
