133: Chapter 133: Auction Price 133: Chapter 133: Auction Price Buying a car, is there a second person in the group buying a car today? Probably not. An Lan is well aware of this fact. Could it be that Su Qingyu is the wife mentioned by Ye Shikai? At this moment, An Lan seemed to hear a phrase Ye Shikai had once said, “Actually, my wife is the CEO.” Was that not a joke? Why would he marry Su Qingyu? An Lan couldn’t believe it. Why would it be like this? Walking into the office alone, on the desk’s frame was a photo of An Lan and him together. She couldn’t stop her tears from flowing, even though he had said he was married before. An Lan had also guessed who his spouse might be; perhaps a doctor, maybe a lawyer, and even more absurdly... An Lan had fallen in love with her best friend’s husband. An Lan’s admiration for Ye Shikai had existed since not long after he joined the company. If it wasn’t for knowing Ye Shikai was already married, perhaps An Lan would have already expressed her feelings. An Lan is different from Su Qingyu; although both are cold-faced business queens, An Lan’s inner world craved love. But why? Why did fate play such tricks... In the 4S shop, Ye Shikai was selecting a car. Frankly, he was not buying it for the sake of appearance. If possible, he would rather pursue a simple and low-profile life. It was genuinely for practical needs, as taking taxis was time-consuming and inconvenient, and Su Qingyu needed her car most of the time, so he decided to buy one for himself. “Hello, sir,” a car saleswoman approached and asked, “What type of car would you like to buy?” “Just a regular sedan for myself,” Ye Shikai replied while looking at several cars nearby. At this time, he saw a crowd gathered around a car and couldn’t help but become curious, joining in on the commotion. “What happened over there? Why are there so many people?” Ye Shikai asked the saleswoman next to him. “It’s like this, we have a new car in store, and we are adopting a new sales method.” “What method?” Ye Shikai suddenly became interested when he heard this. “For this car, we will conduct a silent auction. Each person writes their bid on a piece of paper, and the auction’s starting bid is eighty percent of the car’s original price,” the saleswoman explained. Ye Shikai chuckled, finding it a rather unique sales method. Regardless, the dealership would profit, and the price could even be bid up several times. Looking at the crowd around the car, he guessed there wouldn’t be a shortage of bidders. Ye Shikai came to the side of the car, a Lexus SUV model, spacious inside and nice looking on the outside, indeed a good car, especially fitting his style, and not one of those top-tier luxury vehicles that would be too conspicuous in the city. “Sir, are you here to bid? The starting price for this car isn’t low,” the saleswoman asked, her gaze inadvertently scanning his attire, which was very ordinary and didn’t hint at that of a wealthy second-generation. After listening, Ye Shikai felt slightly displeased and looked at the starting bid sign, a whopping 1.1 million—not cheap at all, no wonder the saleswoman had said that to him. “That’s right, what about it? Can’t I participate?” Ye Shikai said, his gaze turning colder. “Of course not, but the price of this car may be beyond your budget. There are many other models over there that I can introduce to you,” the saleswoman quickly waved her hand. “I want this car. Go and get me a piece of paper,” Ye Shikai pointed at a desk nearby. The saleswoman looked at him like this and couldn’t help but be puzzled—could he be an incognito wealthy man, coming here to play a ‘poor man eating a tiger’ stunt? The saleswoman handed him a piece of paper. Ye Shikai didn’t immediately write down the bid but looked at her meaningfully. “You must think that I, dressed so plainly, don’t look like a wealthy person, and that I must be joking right now, right?” “Of course not,” the saleswoman laughed awkwardly, naturally not admitting it. “But today, I’ll tell you, this car will share my surname today,” Ye Shikai boldly scribbled a line of characters on the paper and handed it to the saleswoman. “Please help me submit this.” Instead of folding the paper, he directly gave it to her. When she saw the string of numbers he had written, her face showed a ghost-like expression, her mouth agape in disbelief. It appeared that his bid had taken her by surprise. “Is there half an hour left until the bidding results are announced? Could you get me a cup of water?” “Okay... sure, I’ll go now,” the saleswoman stammered, her face overflowing with surprised delight. In that half-hour, Ye Shikai received VIP treatment befitting a master... “Distinguished guests, thank you for participating in this auction. Now, I announce that the winner of this car is Mr. Ye Shikai, with a bid of... five million.” When the host mentioned the bidding price, he clearly paused for two seconds. How could a car worth 1.1 million be auctioned for five million? Upon hearing the number, there was much murmuring among the crowd. “Which one is Mr. Ye Shikai?” the host asked. “Right here,” Ye Shikai said, walking onto the stage under everyone’s gaze. “You are Mr. Ye Shikai, correct?” the host verified the identity. “Yes, that’s me. I can pay for the car now,” Ye Shikai stated, taking out a Black Gold Card after speaking. “Alright, please come this way with me,” the saleswoman led him to the payment area. Ye Shikai swiped his card and signed his name with swift strokes. The saleswoman was surprised and relieved to see him pay so readily, as selling this car would earn her a substantial commission, especially since it was sold for five million. The commission would certainly be significant. “Eh, Mr. Ye, what are you doing here?” At this moment, a man’s voice sounded behind him. Ye Shikai turned and saw it was Cheng Yi. What was he doing here? “Mr. Cheng,” on the other hand, the saleswoman by his side immediately showed awe on her face upon seeing Cheng Yi. “I’m here to buy a car,” Ye Shikai replied. “I’m a director of this car dealership. It’s a pleasure to have you here, Mr. Ye. I apologize for my earlier oversight,” Cheng Yi, seeing his puzzled look, explained to him.
