Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Bracelet

As Lady Yu Li announced the start of the auction, the bidding items were presented one after another.

”The first item, a signed photo of Miss Ye Linglong from the Ye Family, starting at one hundred thousand!”

Wow!

The first auction item caused a sensation throughout the venue.

”This is a signed photo of Miss Ye Linglong from the Ye Family, a renowned figure, the instructor of the Phoenix Special Combat Team! Her position is on par with the Mayor of Fang City.”

”Brother, you’re behind on the news. It’s said that Miss Ye Linglong is about to get another promotion soon. The announcement should come any time now.”

”She is the top goddess among my many idols!”

”I bid one hundred and fifty thousand!”

”Two hundred thousand!”

”Three hundred thousand!”

”Three hundred and fifty thousand!”

”...”

Listening to the escalating prices, Qiao Xue and Chu Yunxiu, mother and daughter, had their mouths wide open in astonishment. Especially Chu Yunxiu, who couldn’t imagine that a signed photo could fetch several hundreds of thousands.

”Xiaoxue, if you could ever become a figure like Miss Ye Linglong, I wouldn’t be able to close my mouth even in my sleep,” Chu Yunxiu said wistfully.

Qiao Xue gave a bitter smile and shook her head, ”How could that be possible? To become like Miss Ye Linglong is as hard as reaching the heavens! Let alone becoming such a figure, even knowing one is impressive enough.”

”True, Xiaoxue, if only you could marry a man as outstanding as Miss Linglong,” Chu Yunxiu mentioned and then thought of Lin Dong.

Fortunately, her daughter Xiaoxue only had a six-month marriage agreement with him. After half a year, she would have nothing to do with him. There would still be an opportunity once she was single again.

In the end, Ye Linglong’s signed photo was taken by a tycoon for one million.

When the tycoon obtained the photo, he was ecstatic and overwhelmingly excited.

A treasure indeed!

Lin Dong in the Supreme Box also felt surprised.

He hadn’t expected that the influence of a Tiger Ranking’s expert could be this significant; just a signed photo alone could fetch one million.

Lin Dong thought to himself that if he got the chance, he would challenge a Tiger Ranking’s Expert next time, winning himself a place on the Tiger Rankings for fun.

Meanwhile, the auction continued.

Several antiques were auctioned off next, but Lin Dong wasn’t interested in them and didn’t even bother to look.

On the table, Mayor Fang and others were observing Lin Dong.

Especially Mayor Fang’s wife, Liu Yun, who was watching to see if there was anything Lin Dong wanted.

If there was, and the price wasn’t too outrageous, she was inclined to purchase it for Lin Dong as an apology for their earlier encounter at the hospital.

Soon, a pair of bracelets were up for auction.

”This pair of bracelets is from the Tang Dynasty, the Dragon and Phoenix Bracelet, suitable for couples or husband and wife to wear. The starting bid is one million!”

The moment the bracelets were presented for auction, Qiao Xue and Chu Yunxiu mother and daughter’s complexions changed drastically.

”Xiaoxue, this bracelet is our family’s heirloom; I can’t believe it’s here. You must bid quickly and buy it back!” Chu Yunxiu urged with a trembling and extremely excited voice.

Qiao Xue had a complicated look on her face too.

Once their family was better off than now, but that was before her irresponsible father came into the picture.

When she was young, her father was addicted to gambling and almost gambled away all their property.

This bracelet, once their family heirloom, had been pawned by her father when she was just a child.

Her mother, Chu Yunxiu, had always wanted to redeem it, but they never found it and did not expect it to show up here.

Without any hesitation, Qiao Xue made her bid, ”One million and one hundred thousand!”

”One million and two hundred thousand!” However, as soon as she made her bid, someone else immediately joined in.

Because the quality of these bracelets was indeed excellent and had much collectible value.

Qiao Xue clenched her teeth and continued to bid, ”One million and five hundred thousand!”

”One million and six hundred thousand!” Yet again, as soon as she made her bid, someone else followed.

Chu Yunxiu said, ”Xiaoxue, no matter how expensive, we must buy them.”

These bracelets meant too much to their family. If they managed to get them, their grandfather would certainly be very pleased.

Qiao Xue nodded firmly, ready to keep bidding.

But at that moment, a voice suddenly came from the Supreme Box.

”Two million!”

The voice belonged to Liu Yun, the wife of Mayor Fang.

As soon as she made her bid, instantly no one else dared to bid again.

Qiao Xue and Chu Yunxiu were stunned, looking at each other, not daring to speak.

The person bidding was Lady Liu Yun from the Supreme Box; to compete with her would mean not wanting to stay in Jianghai, wouldn’t it?

Chu Yunxiu sighed and said, ”Forget it, Xiaoxue, let’s give up on the bracelet.”

Qiao Xue looked very disappointed but had no choice but to reluctantly part with it.

They could not afford to offend Lady Liu Yun in the Supreme Box.

Inside the Supreme Box, after Liu Yun had successfully bid for the bracelet, she turned to Lin Dong with a charming smile,

”Divine Doctor Lin, I saw you were interested in this bracelet, so I decided to purchase it for you,” she said.

”I truly regret what happened before in the hospital, and I hope Divine Doctor Lin won’t take it to heart.”

Lin Dong was certainly surprised; he hadn’t expected that Liu Yun would buy these bracelets to give to him.

He was about to decline, but Liu Yun preempted him, saying,

”Divine Doctor Lin, if you refuse it, it would mean that you haven’t forgiven me. I sincerely hope you won’t decline!”

Hearing her say this, Lin Dong felt it would be rude to refuse.

He nodded, indicating he was willing to accept the bracelets.

On the other side, Huang Zicheng, seeing Qiao Xue’s eagerness to bid for the bracelet, ingratiatingly said,

”Xiaoxue, I’ve had dinner with Lady Liu Yun several times; we’re acquaintances. Next time, I will go to her and buy the bracelet from her at a higher price to give to you. I believe she will give me that much face!”

Hearing this, Qiao Xue’s eyes lit up.

Chu Yunxiu excitedly said, ”Huang Shao, are you serious?”

”Of course!” Huang Zicheng laughingly said.

”Huang Shao, if you can buy this bracelet back for my family, I will only recognize you as our son-in-law!” Chu Yunxiu declared.

Thrilled by this promise, Huang Zicheng thought that no matter the cost, he must buy the bracelet back from Liu Yun!

But he was bound to be disappointed, for the bracelets were now in Lin Dong’s hands.

He would not be able to purchase them!

After the bracelet was auctioned off, the auction was already drawing to a close.

Lady Yu Li then teased the audience, ”Next, the item for auction is the finale item of our auction today.”

”Everyone, take a guess, what could it be?”
