"It was his mother's doing." Huo Jiu said as he gave He Meili an ambiguous look.

　　At this moment, She Meixin was still immersed in the sudden appearance of Huo Jiu, unable to react. Hearing Huo Jiu's words, she could only embarra.s.sedly smile.

　　"Alright, I won't disturb you guys anymore. Beautiful Heart, come sit over there with me." Huo Jiabao said to her when he saw that He Meixin had come back from his trance.

　　When She Meixin heard this, she was slightly taken aback. She turned around to look at Wu Wei and discovered that he had a carefree expression on his face. It seemed that he was not angry at the appearance of the Huo Family's heirloom at all.

　　"Yes." Nodding, He Meixin decided to go with Huo Jianji since she couldn't sit down at this table anyway.

　　Wu Wei didn't react at all when he heard that she was leaving. He was sipping on half a gla.s.s of white wine.

　　As Huo Jiu walked over to the round table at the very front, there was no one sitting at the table. On the table, there was the name plate "Huo Group".

　　After the three of them sat down, the auction officially began.

　　The auctioneer held a hammer and walked to the center of the stage. Following his refined introduction, the first item was brought out by the staff member. It was a piece of colored pottery and porcelain from the Kangxi era.

　　All the n.o.ble officials and officials started to bid, and Huo Jiu didn't even look at the stage. It seemed like he wasn't interested in that precious antique at all.

　　The first piece of porcelain was eventually sold to an antique collector for a high price.

　　The second item that was being auctioned was the unlisted Sherlock Holmes investigation book that She Yimeng had been looking forward to obtaining. Because of the rarity of this work, the auctioneer offered a starting price of one million.

　　When this price was announced, many experts who were interested in collecting these items began to bid. The starting price of the item rose from one million to five million.

　　A price of 5 million was a hurdle, anyone who could call out such a price seemed determined to win.

　　She Meixin knew He Yi Meng really liked this work, but she discovered that Huo Jiuji had no intentions of bidding. After that person called out a bid of five million, no one made a sound. The auctioneer had already started bidding several times.

　　"Five million, is there anyone willing to bid?" Five million going once … "Five million times …"

　　"Six million." Finally, Wu Wei raised his card before the five million yelled out for the third time.
