The Richest Billionaire is My Accidental Husband

Chapter 584: Chapter 584: Call the Big Tumor to Smash the Scene_1

“Wow! It’s the ‘Light of Fortune’, one of the highlights of tonight’s auction, the main diamond from last century’s queen’s crown from the L country.”

“And more than that, there’s a legend that goes: [Whoever possesses it, possesses the entire world]. Mr. Perry is truly romantic, wanting to give the whole world to Miss Xia, Miss Xia, are you feeling especially happy now?”

Facing the journalists’ cameras, Xia Yanyan gave a gracious smile, and coyly leaned onto Harry Perry’s shoulder.

“I had no idea, that you wanted to buy the ‘Light of Fortune’ for me.”

“Do you like it?”

Yanyan’s enjoyment of it shone through her words: “I like it, but what I cherish more is your philanthropic heart. Any ‘Light of Fortune’ pales in comparison to such a charitable heart.”

Xia Yanyan’s words were eloquently pleasant to Perry’s ears.

The couple entered the venue under the watchful eye of the media.

Yanyan’s good mood was written all over her face.

She enjoyed being showered with love in this way, just as her brother had advised, when choosing a man, it’s important to choose a man who will hold her in the palm of his hand.

In reality, she wasn’t very fond of Ye Junqing, she simply thought that Junqing fancied her, because he’d designed thoughtful things like a mermaid-themed swimming pool, theme park, and even the logo for Jun-Star Weibo was a mermaid…

Now, having discovered that those acts of affection were not meant for her and having been rejected by Junqing, she’d finally come to see that he truly never was all that.

She prefers the kind of man who’d willingly splurge on her. If Junqing didn’t appreciate her, that was his loss, not hers!

Xia Yanyan regained her old self-confidence and pride.

She is the world’s one and only mermaid, destined from birth to receive the world’s doting and envy. There was no point in wasting her feelings on a man who didn’t hold her in high regard.

…

Ye Xingguang and Xiao Mi Hu also entered the conference room.

The conference room was already filled with many high-profile figures, a lot of them already knew each other and were now having discreet conversations. The host was on the stage at the front, getting the microphone ready for the upcoming auction.

She and Xiao Mi Hu found a seat and quickly, an attendant came over, handed her a bidding paddle and an auction catalog. After thanking the attendant, she and Xiao Mi Hu opened the catalog to view the auction items for today.

Xiao Mi Hu wanted to see what the ‘Light of Fortune’ looked like. After flipping through dozens of pages, she finally found the description about the ‘Light of Fortune’ in the auction catalog. It’s a diamond in the shape of a rose, weighing 21 carats – any woman’s dream.

Xiao Mi Hu excitedly tugged at Ye Xingguang’s arm: “Xingguang, Xingguang, tell Junqing to bid on it for you. It’s so beautiful! Plus, it says here that whoever possesses it also possesses the whole world. Let Junqing and Mr. Perry compete financially.”

“Do they have too much money to spend? It’s just a diamond. The starting bid is already 10 million, why not just go rob a bank?”

“But it says right here on the catalog, this gem is so rare it’s divine. When a man buys a woman a diamond, it proves his true love. People online are saying that Junqing’s just pretending to like you, so now it’s time for Junqing to show his true feelings. No, I’m going to tell Junqing that you’ve got your eye on the ‘Light of Fortune’ and ask him to come to the auction.”

With those words, Xiao Mi Hu started to take out her phone.

Ye Xingguang immediately took the phone from her, forbidding her from doing so. With that money, they could have several more meals of wontons.

“Sit still and look for more interesting items.”

She flipped through a few more pages, and was drawn to another blue diamond listed in the auction catalog, called ‘Diamond of Doom’.

This blue diamond was always associated with killings and theft; a prophecied ominous object drenched in blood. Furthermore, the ‘Diamond of Doom’ has claimed many owners, all of whom mysteriously died. It was a little scary. Then an owner threw this diamond into the sea to prevent it from bringing doom to others, but a fisherman found it in the sea and brought it to the auction.

Xiao Mi Hu shivered: “A nice-looking diamond, yet it’s an ominous object. The starting price is still so high, 1 million. Who in their right mind would spend 1 million to buy such an ill-omened diamond? They must be out of their minds.”

Ye Xingguang, who was oddly interested in the ‘Diamond of Doom’: “…..”

“What Doom or not Doom, only those with weak constitutions would blame their bad luck on a diamond. I think this diamond looks quite nice.”

The bidding price was cheap too, only 1 million; she couldn’t afford it.

Xiao Mi Hu seized the opportunity and snatched her phone back.

Xiao Mi Hu was also added by Mo Fei into the Ye’s family group chat, she pinged Ye Junqing in the chat.

Xiao Mi Hu: @Ye Junqing, Junqing, Junqing, your girlfriend wants the ‘Light of Fortune’, it’s high time to show her whether you’re man enough and willing to allow her to splurge.

Ye Xingguang received a notification on her phone, opened the group chat, and saw the message that Mi Hu had sent.

Ye Xingguang: @Ye Junqing, don’t listen to her, I am not interested.

Xiao Mi Hu: @Ye Junqing, women always say one thing and mean another. She said she doesn’t want it but in fact she does. Perry said that the ‘Light of Fortune’ is only worthy of Xia Yanyan because possessing this diamond means possessing the whole world, he wants to hand the whole world to Yanyan, wow, so romantic. It’s got me a bit envious…

Ye Xingguang’s eye twitched, and she glared at Xiao Mi Hu: “Who’s envious? Don’t talk nonsense.”

Xiao Mi Hu stuck her tongue out at her.

Ye Junqing still hadn’t said a word in the group chat, but Tang Zhou had already started to make a fuss.

Tang Zhou: What ‘Light of Fortune’? Send a picture, send a picture.

Xiao Mi Hu turned to the catalog, took a photo and sent it into the group chat. @@novelbin@@

Tang Zhou: Wow, it’s so beautiful; I want it too. Junqing, I want it too!

Ji Qishu: If you want it, ask your little follower to buy it for you.

Tang Zhou: My little follower relies on me to make a living, he doesn’t have the money to buy such an expensive diamond; it should be me buying it for him. Junqing, I want it, I really want it~~

Unfortunately, Ye Junqing never appeared in the group chat. I don’t know if he’s pretending to be dead or really dead!

Tang Zhou: @Ye Xingguang, Junqing must be reluctant to buy it for you, so he’s ignoring you. I’ve accepted it, you should too.
