Chapter 18: The Auction’s Dark Horse
The air inside the prestigious auction hall was thick with tension and excitement. High society’s elite had gathered, dressed in their finest, eager to flaunt their wealth and snatch up rare treasures.
Seated in the VIP section, Lin Feng remained calm and expressionless, quietly observing the chaos of competitive bidding.
Unlike the others, he didn’t need to show off. His money would do the talking.
In the row ahead, a few heirs were already whispering, barely bothering to lower their voices.
Luo Zixuan, ever the arrogant rich kid, scoffed as he nudged his friend, Zhao Ming, whose fingers tapped rhythmically against his whiskey glass.
Luo Zixuan:"See that guy over there? Thinks he’s one of us just because he’s sitting in VIP."
Zhao Ming:(chuckling)"Probably got in through connections. Bet he won’t bid on a single thing."
Further down, Wang Yifan, heir to a billion-dollar real estate empire, smirked.
Wang Yifan:"If he does bid, it’ll be on some cheap decorative item. Watch and see."
Laughter followed. Lin Feng remained unfazed. He wasn’t here to talk.
He was here to shut them up.
