Chapter 1306: Chapter 1233: Potential Rival_3

Ron’s invitation placed his seat towards the front, in the third row, right in the center.

From Yue, Bai Xiaosheng and his group learned that the entire table was reserved exclusively for them, with seating already arranged according to the number of guests.

Guests seated behind the ninth row would have to share tables with others.

After sitting down, Bai Xiaosheng noticed that there were four plates of dried fruits and four plates of pastries on the table for the guests to partake in, and if they desired tea or cocktails, they could simply ask the guides by their side.

The guides for each table stood at the edge of the table on the right side of the aisle, standing straight and neat on the carpet with fluorescent spots, forming a perfectly organized queue.

The quality lies in the details.

Moreover, that "Little Prince" must be a perfectionist, Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.

Ten minutes later, all the guests were seated.

Regarding the rules for holding up the bid numbers and calling out bids, the guides had already briefed the guests in advance, so as to avoid redundancy later, allowing the auction to start immediately.

As for the ordinary guests, it was believed that they would certainly have been informed too.

"Three, two, one..."

After everyone was seated, a deep and magnetic baritone voice sounded.

On the big screen on the stage, large numbers appeared, shattering into glittering light particles with each countdown call.

This special effect might seem simple, yet it was crisp and deft, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.

"Jiang • Wang Charity Gala, now, officially begins!"

The moment the baritone voice fell, the stage was immediately lit up by lights from all directions.

A woman in an evening dress, smiling, made her way gracefully onto the stage with a refined and celestial aura.

"Hello everyone, I’m your old friend, Xuexin, the host of this auction."

The beautiful hostess greeted everyone on stage, immediately winning a round of applause.

The first to clap were probably the veterans who frequented auctions, acquaintances.

"Next, please welcome the organizer of tonight’s gala—Mr. Wang Xinmo, to give the opening address!"

With a smile, the hostess Xuexin gestured invitingly to the audience below the stage.

From the very front center table, a person stood up and walked onto the stage.

It was Wang Xinmo.

He didn’t wear a mask, nor did he need one, just a pair of black framed glasses that added a touch of scholarly elegance and charm.

Wang Xinmo’s appearance on stage immediately sparked an eruption of applause and even faint screams from women.

"These women, so vulgar!" That incited Luo Jiaqi, who sat at the same table as Wang Xinmo, to gnash her teeth and mutter angrily.

Wang Xinmo stood on the stage with a commanding presence, making humorous and witty remarks that frequently drew laughter and applause.

"This guy really has a way with women, just listen to how many women around are screaming," Lin Weiwei whispered to Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying with a chuckle.

"Our table seems to lack enthusiasm, Weiwei, why don’t you give a couple of shouts?" Bai Xiaosheng teased.

Lin Weiwei snorted, "For him? I’m not interested. Whoever wants to scream, let them."

On the stage.

After Wang Xinmo finished his speech, he glanced towards Bai Xiaosheng’s direction.

Although not clearly visible, the fluorescent number on the table was unmistakable.

Moreover, Wang Xinmo had arranged for someone to keep an eye on Bai Xiaosheng’s table, and he wore a hidden Bluetooth earpiece in his ear.

Soon, whatever item Bai Xiaosheng and his group showed interest in, or even their individual reactions, he would be aware of.

"For this charity auction, I am both the organizer and a competitor to you all, so if I happen to obtain something you love, I hope you will not take it to heart," Wang Xinmo joked, eliciting another round of laughter and applause.

After Wang Xinmo left the stage, the host Xuexin took over, smiling at everyone below, "Thank you, Mr. Wang Xinmo, for the wonderful speech. I believe everyone is already familiar with the items on auction tonight, and has their eye on something they like, so without further ado, the charity auction now officially begins!"

"First up is the initial auction item, a Cartier diamond necklace with a main diamond weighing twenty carats. What makes this diamond necklace extraordinary is that it once belonged to a prince and comes with a poignant love story..."

The auction officially started.

The very first item attracted the attention of countless female guests, even eliciting faint screams from around the room.

Even Lin Weiwei from Bai Xiaosheng’s table seemed somewhat captivated.

Women inherently have no resistance to jewelry.

Bai Xiaosheng himself felt nothing and did not intend to win it, as he would not buy such a token of affection from someone else for Wei Xuelian.

He planned to design and custom-make something himself.

That’s what would be meaningful!

In this aspect, Bai Xiaosheng was as stubborn as a typical straight man.

"If you want it, just buy it; you can afford it anyway. Do you want me to win it for you?" Bai Xiaosheng asked with a smile, seeing Lin Weiwei’s eagerness.

To his surprise, Lin Weiwei shook her head, "It’s not the same, I don’t want it!"

With that said, she truly stopped looking at it.

The auction ended with the "Little Prince" winning the item.

This immediately led to a heated discussion.

However, Wang Xinmo himself didn’t feel any joy, and even frowned slightly, "What’s going on, that woman didn’t bid even once. She doesn’t like jewelry?"

"Hmph, an interesting woman!" Wang Xinmo then revealed a smile, "Now, I’m even more curious about what you want. But no matter what you buy, I will be your strongest competitor!"
