Chapter 426: Chapter 426: Romance on the High Seas (2)

"Yanyi, little sister, do you really have to treat me like this? I just got into a fight with my brother-in-law, and I was the one who ended up worse off. Is it really okay for you to prefer your love over your friend like this?" Corey complained pitifully. Not long ago, he thought it was Qin Jiran who favored love over friendship, but now it looked like birds of a feather flock together.

Eventually, Corey left. He was actually quite busy, but ever since he was young, he had this idea—he always wanted to see Su Yanyi’s face change, so he couldn’t help but tease her. Yet, it always backfired on him.

The auction began, and a hot-looking woman walked onto the stage. It was unclear whether it was a result of Corey’s wicked sense of humor, but the woman wore only a bikini, her impressive figure eliciting a lot of wolf whistles.

"Welcome to Luxury Liner. I am the Auctioneer Lilya. Today is the first session of the auction, and the items we’re auctioning are all above board. Luxury Liner can guarantee their security. I won’t waste any more of your time, so let’s begin with the first item: a purebred horse from Country Y. Purebred horses are one of the fastest breeds of horses in the world and also have the best body structure. Now, let’s invite this handsome horse onto the stage!"

As Lilya finished speaking, a platform rose up in the center of the stage, and a horse trainer led a very handsome purebred horse up onto the stage.

"The name of this purebred horse is Kono, once the creator of world records in high jump and long jump. Those who love horses should be aware of its existence. Let’s start the bidding now. The opening bid is two million US dollars, with each bid increase being no less than one hundred thousand dollars. The auction begins now!"

The guests who were able to attend the auction were all holding gold and silver cards. When they entered the auction, each was given a bidding device, and the data Lilya received were just the numbers corresponding to the cards that the guests held.

Many of the guests present clearly loved horses; seeing this one, they didn’t hesitate to bid generously. The number on the big screen quickly rose from two million to over three million, and the upward trend was still incredibly fierce.

"Do you like it?" Su Yanyi asked Qin Jiran, looking at him. She noticed that Qin Jiran admired the horse and thought about getting it for him. After all, it was her father footing the bill—why not buy it?

"It’s okay. I have a horse at the club, but I’m not very skilled at riding," said Qin Jiran, who did actually like horses. However, since he already had one, and although it was not as prestigious as this one, he seemed to have no intention of buying it. Clearly, he understood what Su Yanyi was hinting at.

"’Not very skilled’? How bad exactly? Do you need a master to teach you? I’m quite good at riding," Su Yanyi offered herself willingly, thinking that if they had the time, it would be a nice choice for the two to go horse riding together.

"I’m only bad enough to need your teaching. As long as you don’t find me too clumsy, I’d be more than willing to learn," Qin Jiran played along with a smile, already looking forward to riding horses together with Yanyi. Especially the thought of seeing Yanyi in her riding outfit with a riding crop in hand, she would definitely look even more like a queen.

Oh, should he take a bunch of photos and post them online when the time came? Qin Jiran was conflicted. On the one hand, he wanted others to see how dazzling and charming his Yanyi was, but on the other, he wanted to hide her away from everyone else’s sight. It was indeed a bit of a struggle!

"A bit clumsy, but I won’t hold it against you."

As the two were talking, the first auction item had already sold, fetching a total of four million eight hundred thousand US dollars. For many people, that was an astronomical figure, but in reality, for the people present, it was merely an appetizer.
