23: Chapter 23 Dingtian Auction 2

Xu Tian didn't know what had happened, but an insider came up to inform him of the incident that had just occurred at the entrance.

"Eldest Miss, I am truly sorry. It was my oversight. I will have these irrelevant people removed immediately." Xu Tian gestured to someone behind him.

In an instant, security personnel surrounded the Shen Family father and son.

"Manager Xu, what are you doing? We spent fifty million to buy Box No. 5. You can't just kick us out." Shen An felt that since he had spent money, he was God, and Xu Tian should be respectful to them.

"Heh, President Shen, I really don't know why you'd give up a successor as good as Shen Xuan and insist on favoring someone so brainless?" Xu Tian looked at Shen He with a cold sneer.

Shen He's expression was very ugly. He hadn't expected this woman's status to be so high that even Xu Tian of Ding Tian would call her Eldest Miss.

They couldn't afford to offend someone of her status, yet this idiot was still trying to argue using money.

"Shen Xuan is my person now; don't compare him to them. By the way, considering you brought him into this world...

This Princess will give you a gift."

Gao Ying had spent two points to have Fugui investigate everything regarding Shen He's 'white moonlight' and this son.

To her surprise, that so-called 'white moonlight' wasn't dead; she had simply undergone plastic surgery and become a nanny in the Shen Family.

Furthermore, Shen An wasn't even Shen He's son. The mother and son had long since recognized each other and had already plotted how to seize the Shen Family's assets.

Yin Feng took the documents from her hand and threw them at Shen He.

As the Shen father and son were driven out of the auction by security, they could only watch helplessly as the son they despised headed for the highest seat.

Shen He wanted to throw away the items in his hand, but thinking of the power behind Ding Tian, he still held some hope in his heart.

After all, if that unfilial son had been taken a fancy to, perhaps this was a betrothal gift for him.

His mood had originally improved slightly, but upon opening the documents, he felt like nothing more than a giant joke.

"Dad, what's wrong? You look terrible. Do you need to go to the hospital?" Shen An, still unaware of what awaited him, stepped forward with hypocritical concern.

"No need, I'm fine. Let's go back first." Shen He was someone who could endure; this matter couldn't be handled here, or his family would be the laughingstock of the city by tomorrow.

Since those two dared to play him, they would have to face severe consequences.

Since the auction hadn't started yet, the curtains of the second-floor boxes were not yet open, and they were unaware of what was happening on the first floor.

"Young Master, the owner of the Ding Tian Auction House has appeared." There was a knock on the door of Box No. 1, and a butler entered to report what had happened downstairs.

"What? The person behind Ding Tian has always been a mysterious existence. Why would they suddenly appear?"

Inside Box No. 1 were two men and two women. These four were the eldest young master of the Imperial Capital's Xi Family, Xi Yan, and the eldest miss of the Xi Family, Xi Yutang.

The eldest young master of the Lou Family, Lou Jingyao, and the young lady of the Lou Family, Lou Zhiwei.

All were raised by the top-tier families of the Imperial Capital, and all were handsome men and beautiful women.

Xi Yan was dressed in a high-end black suit. With sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, he exuded a cold, majestic authority. His skin was a healthy wheat color, his nose bridge was high, and his lips were habitually pressed into a straight line.

Most striking were those eyes, deep as a cold pool, radiating sharp calmness.

Beside him was his younger sister, Xi Yutang. She wore a lively pink gown. Her face was a cute oval shape, her eyes were large and round, and her gaze was clear and spirited. When she smiled, she revealed a row of pearly white teeth and two sweet dimples on her cheeks—clearly an innocent and romantic young lady of a great family.

Lou Jingyao wore a finely tailored red suit, which was very flamboyant. He always carried a hint of cynicism on his face, the corners of his lips naturally upturned as if ready to tease someone at any moment.

He had beautiful peach-blossom eyes that made it seem as if he looked at everyone with deep affection. His slightly curly brown hair fell casually over his forehead, adding a touch of the playboy vibe.

Beside him was his sister, Lou Zhiwei. The first impression she gave was one of gentle intellect.

Lou Zhiwei wore a long, cream-colored gown with a soft, pearl-like luster. The style was simple and elegant, and her skin was delicate and fair.

Her eyes were a gentle hazel, her gaze calm, and the corners of her mouth always held a faint, lingering smile. She exuded an aura of quiet and dignified grace.

The one speaking was Xi Yutang.

"I am not clear on the details, but the owner of the Ding Tian Auction House is a woman. They have already taken the special passage to the third floor.

She is accompanied by the Second Young Master of the Shen Family from Jiang City, Shen Xuan, and the eldest young master of the Lu family, Lu Li." The butler reported what he knew.

"Let's go to Box No. 6." Xi Yan stood up and walked out.

"Young Master, the Lu family's box has been upgraded to No. 3. The people inside took the initiative to swap with them," the butler reminded.

"They're all shrewd people; they've made their move so quickly." Lou Jingyao stubbed out his cigarette and stood up.

"Sister Zhiwei, I'm really curious about what that girl looks like. Shall we go take a look?" Xi Yutang took Lou Zhiwei's arm and looked at the two men ahead, whispering her plot.

"You can't. The third floor has layers of protection; you won't be able to get up there." Lou Zhiwei knew she was lively by nature, but she also knew they couldn't afford to provoke the person behind Ding Tian.

There was also a Ding Tian Auction House in the Imperial Capital. Even when top-tier families caused trouble there, they were still kicked out and didn't dare complain, otherwise, bankruptcy awaited their family.

"What a pity. I really wanted to catch a glimpse of that lady's beautiful face." Xi Yutang rested her small head on Lou Zhiwei's shoulder.

Lou Zhiwei dotedly rubbed her head as they entered Box No. 3.

"Since Young Master Xi and Young Master Lou have asked, I should naturally help. However, whether that person will see you or not is not up to me." Lu Li's father hadn't expected his son to be able to go to the third floor with that person.

The last time he heard his son return and say that person was coming to the auction today, he had just been thinking about whether he could meet her.

Who knew that instead of meeting her, his son would be taken to the third floor.

Ever since they moved to Box No. 3, people from the second floor had been coming to curry favor.

To avoid offending anyone, he had no choice but to send a message to his son. As for whether his son's phone was turned off, he didn't know.

When Lu Li saw the message from his father, he thought for a moment and turned off his phone directly.

Being able to go to the third floor was already a great honor; he absolutely could not lose this opportunity for the sake of others.

"Miss Gao, thank you very much for today." Shen Xuan thanked her solemnly.

"As long as you don't think I'm meddling. Everyone, please sit."

It truly lived up to its name as the Royal Court Box. Located at the very core of the main hall, it had its own private elevator, and the walls were made of solid slabs of warm suet-white jade.

The furniture inside was carved from thousand-year-old bogwood and covered with the softest fur.

It featured an independent constant temperature, humidity, and oxygen system, with air freshness reaching laboratory standards.

A dedicated butler was waiting on standby.

Before the auction started, Xu Tian brought her the catalog for today's items.

This catalog was different from the ones below; it contained several grand finale items that no one else knew about.

The reason people from the Imperial Capital and the Magic City had come was for these mysterious items at the end.

"Eldest Miss, please take a look. If there is anything you like, you can buy it directly." Xu Tian stepped forward to introduce them.

"You guys come and see if there's anything you like."

Gao Ying took the auction list from Xu Tian's hand and flipped through it casually.
