After five bigwigs in Beijing's elite circle fell into their trap, I fled.

Chapter 68 was suppressed again.
When asked about her chances of winning, Jiang Shu humbly replied, "I don't know much about watches, so I'd say I have a 30% chance."

"Thirty percent? It seems even the puppeteer anchor isn't entirely confident..." The host turned to Nightfall, "Nightfall, what about you?"

Nightfall has received a notification through his headphones that the luxury watch has been delivered.

He steadied himself and replied, "My chances of winning depend on the appraiser's valuation—babies, my similar items are ready, please allow my assistant to bring them up!"

The host's eyes lit up: "Come on! Let's wait and see what surprises our nighttime anchor will bring!"

Three assistants towed in an elegant safe in a trailer.

Then, facing the camera, he opened the safe and took out more than a dozen luxury watch gift boxes with luxury logos, placing them one by one in front of the live broadcast camera.

Nightfall spoke politely: "I don't know how many sales charts the Puppet Master has, so I prepared extra! Please rest assured, Puppet Master, whatever you bring out, I will select the same number accordingly, and I will not take advantage of you."

The host began, "So, Nightfall, may we first take a look at the watches you've brought today?"

“Of course.” Nightfall opened the dozen or so boxes one by one and reminded them, “Although they haven’t been authenticated yet, there are invoices in these gift boxes, with prices ranging from 88 to 980 million. In addition, our boss has also brought out his private collection, the ‘Victoria Mechanical Watch,’ which is one of only five in the world and costs 5 million. I heard that Mr. Li Yubai also has one. I promise you here that as long as the Puppet Man anchor doesn’t bring out Li Yubai’s watch, I will never use that watch to suppress you.”

[A luxury watch worth millions! Sigh, in the world of the super-rich, hundreds of millions are just a simple symbol...]

[I didn't see Li Yubai wearing a watch in the last live stream, he was only wearing a bracelet...]

There's a reason why Nightshade has been so popular for so many years! Look at what he did; he acted with integrity!

……

The host paused for a moment: "So, now, please, puppeteer, open your... um, delivery bag?"

Jiang Shu didn't do it herself. Her assistant, Yang, picked up a pair of scissors and, in full view of everyone, slowly cut open the package. Then, three watches, without even inner packaging, were brazenly revealed!

Assistant Yang stared at the watches for a moment, stunned.

Then, she gave the nighttime news anchor on the other side of the screen another sympathetic look...

Jiang Shu reminded him, "Assistant Yang, come closer so everyone can see."

Assistant Yang carefully placed the three watches on a tray, brought it close to the live broadcast camera, and made sure that all the details were presented to the audience: "This is also the first time I've seen these three watches. To be honest, I'm a little shocked. Let's see who can recognize what kind of watches these are?"

I only have one children's watch at home! Asking me to recognize watches is really a challenge! But these three watches are quite nice, I wonder if they can outshine the night watch...

[It's unlikely. Nightfall has practically brought all the prized possessions of several major watch brands! Unless the puppeteer can produce two or three watches worth tens of millions!]

……

Assistant Yang glanced at the live chat comments, then at the suddenly silent host: "Host, do you recognize this watch?"

"I've heard of them, but I don't know if it's true." The host's tone was a little strange, then with a hint of anticipation. "Let's have an authoritative appraisal team reveal the value of these three watches to the children!"

A team specializing in authenticating luxury watches entered the live stream.

After a routine self-introduction, the appraisers finally turned their attention to the tray. When they saw the three gleaming luxury watches, their pupils contracted slightly!
"This...this is...the Demon's Kiss?"

"A fallen angel? How could a fallen angel be here?!" "Enchanting Fox! It's actually the Enchanting Fox, a privately owned exclusive model for the Queen of Y Country!"

What...are they talking about? The name of the watch?

[Ah, the Enchantress! I know the Enchantress! It's a unique watch specially made for the Queen of Y country by the top-tier luxury goods group LS Group. How did it appear in the live stream? You must be seeing things!]

[A fallen angel? What's that? Judging from the appraiser's shocked expression, it must be very valuable?]

……

The host glanced at Ye Se, whose face had turned ashen. Hmm, he must have guessed it from the appraiser's words?

What this puppet pulled out... is truly... astonishing!

The host suddenly felt sorry for Ye Se... After so many years of smooth sailing, it seems like he's accumulated all the bad luck of his life tonight!
Five minutes later, the evaluation team spoke, their voices trembling:
"After our authentication, the three luxury watches in the puppet streamer's possession have been confirmed to be the Fallen Angel, the Chiwen, and the Enchanting Fox!"

Another appraiser chimed in: "The Enchanted Fox is an exclusive edition designed by LS Group, the No.1 watch brand, with the combined efforts of 300 designers over three months. It was personally designed for the Queen of Country Y, and there is only one in the world! As for the valuation... I'm sorry, there is no official valuation for this watch. A year ago, the chairman of LS only said that the intrinsic value of this watch exceeds the combined value of the five 'Victoria' mechanical watches in their brand that are priced at 12 million!"

Even the host couldn't help but cover his face: "How did the Queen of Y Country's things end up in tonight's live broadcast room? Puppet streamer, your methods are too extraordinary!"

Jiang Shu felt slightly bewildered.

She also wanted to know how the Queen's things ended up in the hands of that warlike bird of paradise, and then indirectly ended up in her own hands.

However, it cannot be denied that this round of luxury watch authentication provided her with a lot of emotional value.

She tapped the table with feigned profundity: "It's just a watch, not worth discussing at length—appraiser, please continue."

The appraiser, his voice trembling, picked up the second watch: "This Fallen Angel watch was an exclusive edition designed six months ago by Patek Philippe, the world's second-largest watchmaker. There's only one in the world. Rumor has it that when the family was on the verge of collapse, a mysterious figure saved them, and this watch is a token of gratitude to that mysterious figure. The watch features a bird of paradise with a broken wing, and it's said that it's not just for decoration; owning this watch grants one a lifetime of patronage from Patek Philippe—and its value is no less than that of the Enchanting Fox."

[Holy crap! This isn't just a watch! This is clearly a token that can command the Patek Philippe family!]

[Don't even mention not daring to appraise it; even if we did, no one would dare buy it... The puppeteer's connections are terrifyingly powerful!]

[Nightfall is about to cry again! The total value of his dozen or so watches, including the Victoria mechanical watch that was just a moment ago his prized possession, is far less than the single luxury watch that the puppet casually pulled out! What a cruel world this is, hahaha! So funny!]

……

Puppet Man Livestream Room.

Jiang Shu's somewhat blissful demeanor was observed by the two men on the sofa.

"My baby is so cute." Feng Li admired him for a while, then suddenly changed the subject, "You dog of a man, let's make peace."

Li Yubai's doting gaze also fell on the girl, and upon hearing this, he looked at his nemesis: "Hmm?"

"My precious has been shamefully moved by what that dead bird took out!" The young master of FY looked resentful and gritted his teeth. "If we keep fighting like this, that dead bird will undermine us... It would be better if we worked together to kick that dead bird out of the game first."

Li Yubai stared at his arch-rival for a long while before calmly extending his hand: "So, it'll be a pleasure working together?"
