Chapter 151 Hua Lili’s plan failed

Hua Lili found out yesterday that the two elders of the Meng family would come to the auction.
　　

She knew this was her last chance.
　　

Therefore, she used all her assets to buy a seat ticket behind the second elder of the Meng family.
　　

She originally wanted to buy the seat next door, but the premium seats in the first row were not for sale, so she had to settle for the next best option and sit directly behind.
　　

"Welcome everyone to come to our charity dinner despite your busy schedule..." The host came to the stage and announced the official start of the dinner. "For decades, with the joint efforts of all caring people, Starlight Charity has helped countless people in need around the world. People who help…”
　　

The host gave an emotional speech on the stage.
　　

Hua Lili lowered her eyes secretly.
　　

Her hand holding the broken jade pendant suddenly loosened, and the jade pendant rolled toward the front row...
　　

"Mr. Meng, Mrs. Meng?"
　　

Hua Lili leaned over and called to the people in the front row in a low voice.
　　

Mrs. Meng was listening to the host carefully and asked without looking back, "What's the matter?"

"Sorry to bother you, my jade pendant accidentally fell in front of your seat just now. Can you please pick it up for me?" Hua Lili said very humbly.
　　

As soon as Mrs. Meng turned around, she faced her face.
　　

She was suddenly filled with disgust.
　　

She didn't know why she hated this girl she had only met twice.
　　

"This old lady has lived for more than seventy years, and this is the first time someone dares to ask me to pick up something." Mrs. Meng sneered, "If my old waist is broken, who will it be?"
　　

How could Hua Lili not hear Mrs. Meng's disgust...
　　

But as long as the old lady sees that jade pendant, she will suspect that she is the granddaughter of the Meng family, and she will definitely start to like her...
　　

As long as she refuses to take a paternity test, as long as she and the two men of the Meng family continue to deal with each other, she will always enjoy the protection of the two old things of the Meng family...
　　

Thinking of this, Hua Lili became even more humble: "That jade pendant is very important to me. It is a token of recognition left by my mother to me. If I lose it, I will never be able to find my biological mother again. Please help Mrs. Meng..."
　　

"Don't worry, no one will want your things." Mrs. Meng said coldly, "After the auction, you can come up and pick it up yourself."
　　

After saying that, Mrs. Meng stopped talking to Hua Lili and continued to listen carefully to the host's introduction to the lot.
　　

Hua Lili bit her back teeth tightly.

She is pretending to be so pitiful, why doesn't Mrs. Meng even give her this face?
　　

She had made so many calculations, but the only thing she hadn't considered was that Mrs. Meng was not helpful at all...
　　

What happened to picking something up?
　　

Is it difficult to pick something up?
　　

No wonder that bitch Jiang Jin turned her back on her, she must have inherited this dead old woman from the Meng family!
　　

Jiang Jin had no idea what was happening in the front row.
　　

Her seat was very far back, with her two sons sitting on her left and Director Zhao and the leading actor and actress of the movie sitting on her right.
　　

Although the movie is a hit, the dividends have not come out yet, and everyone on the crew is very poor.
　　

"Auntie, I've made some inquiries. The cheapest lot is an emerald green thumb ring from the Qing Dynasty, which only costs about 200,000 yuan." Director Zhao lowered his voice and said, "And it's the first lot. You can take the shot of this later."
　　

The corner of Jiang Jin's mouth twitched: "It's not impossible to let me take the photo. Let's make it clear in advance who will pay for it?"
　　

Director Zhao immediately spread his hands: "For this movie, my house has been mortgaged. Where will the money come from?"

Liang Ying said: "I prepared all the costumes for the heroine in this movie myself, and my family fortune was also emptied."
　　

Ji Hanguang coughed: "I just graduated from college this year, and I only have 10,000 yuan on my card, which I can sponsor..."
　　

Jiang Jin: "..."
　　

Who are these people? How did they become so poor and virtuous?
　　

After getting the movie dividends, she must stay away from these people!
　　

"Isn't it said that people in the entertainment industry are the richest? You are too poor." Li Xichen looked contemptuous. He took out a card from his pocket and threw it at Jiang Jin, "It's all the money I've saved over the years." My pocket money is about one million. You can take pictures of whatever you like. If it’s not enough, Xiaobei still has it here.”
　　

Li Beixiao: "??"
　　

The money in his card was of great use, but was it just given away by the third brother?

But that’s it for now…
　　

Li Beixiao could only take out his bank card and put it in Jiang Jin's hand.
　　

"Auntie, you didn't raise these two sons in vain." Director Zhao said flatteringly, "My boy spent as much as he wanted, but he didn't even save a dime. I really envy you for having such good and sensible sons..."
　　

Jiang Jin raised her chin proudly: "That is, no one can compare to my sons."

"How about this..." Director Zhao said, "Let's make another movie together, and let your two sons be the male protagonists, and Xiaobai will continue to be the heroine..."

"Stop!" Jiang Jin interrupted him immediately, "My sons don't want to make movies, don't even think about it!"
　　

She wants to cut off all paths for Xiaobei and Bai Ningshuang to meet!
　　

"Director Zhao, look, isn't that Meng Shen?" Liang Ying pointed to the last row, "Meng Shen never participated in such occasions before, but recently, he seems to appear more and more frequently in such places.”
　　

Director Zhao nodded thoughtfully: "Does he have no schedule recently? I'll see if I can get him to film the second part of our "Snow without End..."
　　

Jiang Jin looked along Liang Ying's fingers.
　　

Meng Shen was seen sitting in the corner in a low-key dress, with a cold face and a very low sense of presence.
　　

Just looking at it like this, they really can’t tell that Meng Shen is fifty years old, he’s probably in his early thirties at most. It’s really rare for male stars in the entertainment industry to take such good care of themselves...
　　

"The first auction item is an emerald green thumb ring unearthed from the Qing Dynasty. The starting price is 100,000."
　　

As soon as the auction hammer rang, Jiang Jin looked away and immediately raised the sign: "One hundred and ten thousand!"
　　

Many people present followed suit and raised placards.
　　

After all, it is the first item to be auctioned, and the price is not expensive. If it can be successfully auctioned, you will be the first person present to contribute to charity.
　　

Fortunately, all the people here today are rich, and no one likes this little thumb.
　　

In the end, Jiang Jin successfully won the bid with a price of 210,000.

After the appetizers, comes the real meat.

"Next, is the second auction item, the crown worn by Princess Y. It is made of three large yellow diamonds and more than 300 small diamonds... The starting price is 50 million!"
　　

As soon as the host finished speaking, the auction house suddenly became agitated.
　　

The crown worn by the princess is an excellent item that has been rarely seen in decades.
　　

Although the price is expensive, once you buy it, it can be regarded as a family heirloom and passed down from generation to generation.
　　

No matter how expensive this thing is, you won’t lose too much if you buy it.
　　

"Fifty-one million!"

"Fifty-eight million!"

"Sixty-five million!"·

Prices are rising little by little.
　　

Jiang Jin sat in the back row, watching with interest a large group of wealthy people bidding.
