The auction items were brought up one by one, from famous paintings to precious herbs, almost all of them were involved in this.

From time to time, someone would come up with a high price that would cause a small commotion. The patriarch of the Yu Family, who was also Yu Hongtian's father, nodded her head in satisfaction.

As for Yu Hongtian's previous impoliteness, it was just a child's play, as long as it was not too excessive, Yu Shibo would turn a blind eye.

Li Mengya indifferently looked at the items on the stage, but she had never seen one that she liked.

He thought about whether he should just take a few pictures and give Yu Family some face while doing the charity work.

"The next auction item is a set of jewelry."

Following the auctioneer's introduction, a piece of jewelry that was carved into the shape of a jade orchid was brought out from the embroidered box.

Inside the box was a hairpin, a necklace and a pair of earrings.

The top-quality white jade was sculpted into an exquisite magnolia. Even the always expressionless Li Mengya was somewhat tempted.

"Two hundred thousand."

Li Mengya raised her hand to show her tablet, not concealing her love for this auction item.

Seeing Zhang Chao looking at him in surprise, Li Mengya laughed somewhat embarrassedly.

"Rich people."

He was not interested in things like jade. In his memories, a piece of jewelry that could buy hundreds of thousands of dollars was definitely priceless.

Thinking about her own salary, then thinking about how Li Mengya had spent a lot of money.

Zhang Chao suddenly realized that he really was a pretty boy when he was with Li Mengya.

Things that Li Mengya had set her eyes on, naturally no one would specially try to snatch them away.

Being remembered by Li Mengya because of a piece of jewelry obviously did not mean that it was worth it.

As expected, after a while, the waiter handed over the wrapped up embroidered box to Li Mengya.

"Didn't we only get the auction items after the banquet?"

Zhang Chao's eyes revealed a hint of confusion. According to common sense, a regular auction would definitely not do something that defies one's own expectations.

"Young Master Yu instructed."

The waiter did not dare speak anymore, as he was afraid that if Li Mengya became unhappy, he would lose her job.

One had to know that there was no need for Yu Hongtian to vent his anger at all.

"In that case, thank Young Master for me."

Li Mengya said indifferently, and did not make it difficult for a small waiter.

He reached out to grab the wrapped box and threw it into Zhang Chao's hands, looking uninterested.

Zhang Chao was startled, he only felt a cold gaze staring at him, turning his head to look, he coincidentally saw Yu Hongtian's gloomy face.

He felt a burst of unhappiness in his heart.

To think that he would think of his woman, Yu Hongtian was truly asking for a beating.

"The 46th item is an ancient ring."

The auctioneer's voice once again interrupted Zhang Chao's train of thought as he calmed himself and looked towards the stage.

The rich young masters below the stage obviously had no interest in this ancient ring. When they thought about how they would one day fall in love with a beautiful woman who would give them a rusty old ring, they felt particularly displeased.

But the only difference was that when Zhang Chao saw the storage ring, he was completely dumbstruck on his seat. His eyes were red like a wounded beast's.

"Zhang Chao? What's the matter with you? "

Li Mengya, who was sitting beside Zhang Chao, was the first to notice his strange reaction. Seeing the wild beast's crazed gaze, he anxiously asked.

In her impression, Zhang Chao was very calm no matter what happened, and had never lost control over himself before.

"I want that ring."

Every word that Zhang Chao said seemed to expend every ounce of energy in his body, indicating how great Zhang Chao's emotions were at this moment.

Zhang Chao's gaze stayed on Li Mengya's body, as determination filled her eyes: "I'll return the money to you after."

"Yes."

He didn't know why, but when Zhang Chao talked about money, Li Mengya felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he still didn't say anything.

As he looked at the items on the auction table, he had a few more questions.

Just what was the reason why Zhang Chao was so concerned about this thing?

"Four hundred thousand."

When the auctioneer announced that the auction could begin, Li Mengya did not hesitate and directly offered a very high price. The price was even twice that of the previous set of jewelry and it was obvious that Li Mengya was very interested in this ancient ring.

The people seated below the stage were all people who had eyes. If there were no surprises, this would be the deal, and there would definitely be no one else fighting over this with Li Mengya.

"Eight hundred thousand."

It was obvious that something had happened abruptly, as Yu Hongtian's voice suddenly came out, causing his expression to turn ugly.

He had always been paying attention to Li Mengya's direction earlier, so he naturally saw Zhang Chao's different reaction to that ring.

Since it was something that Zhang Chao wanted, Yu Hongtian would definitely not be satisfied with it.

"One million six hundred thousand."

Li Mengya squinted her eyes, imitating Yu Hongtian's action of doubling the bid.

Since she had already promised Zhang Chao that she would definitely sell the ring, she naturally wouldn't let Zhang Chao down.

"Two million."

Yu Hongtian's brows twitched, he had never seen Li Mengya defend such a person before.

And this man was a bodyguard.

The huge difference in status between the two made Yu Hongtian feel that he was losing face. Could it be that his, Tang Tang Tang Yu Family's Young Master, could not compare to a little bodyguard?

"Two million four hundred thousand."

Li Mengya continued to bid without a single blush, even raising her voice a little, she knew that Yu Hongtian was doing this on purpose.

Those who wanted to bully her had to see if she was willing or not.

Thinking about that, Li Mengya's face turned slightly red, since when did she have to automatically plan for Zhang Chao to be part of her own group?

"Three million."

Following Li Mengya's prices again and again, Yu Hongtian's face became more and more unsightly.

If he were to stop at this time, it would be equivalent to admitting defeat to Zhang Chao.

The shameless man was actually hiding behind a woman.

Yu Hongtian had despised Zhang Chao numerous times in his heart.

Just as Li Mengya was about to raise the price again, Zhang Chao suddenly extended his hand out and organized his actions.

This price far exceeded the value of the ancient ring itself.

Although this item could not be measured with money to Zhang Chao, he was unwilling to see Li Mengya lose too much because of him.

"Zhang Chao?"

Li Mengya looked at Zhang Chao in confusion. It was obvious that the man was determined to win.

Glancing at the complacent Yu Hongtian, he felt himself getting more and more angry.

She used to think that Yu Hongtian was still considered good amongst that group of hedonistic sons.

Now it looked like nothing more than a facade.
