“This child has never asked me to buy him anything. Now that he has finally asked, as his mother, I naturally have to grant his request. You don’t want me to lose face in front of our son, do you?”

Liu Yun swallowed hard. "Sister Lin, what...are you trying to say?"

Lin Shu narrowed her eyes, her face beaming with smiles. She slowly extended her right hand. "It's nothing, I just wanted to see you..."

At this point, she rubbed her right thumb and forefinger together, "Lend me some money."

Liu Yun: "..."

Chapter 276 The Auction Begins!

Borrow money?

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other three people in the private room became incredibly interesting.

An Youyu spoke even faster and in an even lower voice: "I am air, I am air..."

Lin Mo chimed in, "Mom, aren't you rich? Why are you borrowing money from Sister Yun?"

Lin Shu replied seriously, "Xiao Mo, Mom has money, but the starting bid for this Advanced Fruit is already as high as one billion, and the final transaction price will definitely be even higher. Mom is borrowing money mainly to prepare for any eventuality."

"Oh."

Lin Mo nodded and then turned to Liu Yun, saying, "Sister Yun should be quite wealthy, so lending her a hundred or two billion shouldn't be a problem. Besides, you two have such a good relationship, she'll definitely lend it to you."

Liu Yun: "..."

18 billion?

Will you definitely lend it?

What is this?

You and your son are just bragging, what's the point of lifting her up like that?

Besides, she knew all too well how important this advanced fruit... no, extraordinary fruit was!

"It must be."

Lin Shu suppressed a smile and said, "Xiao Jun, I don't need much. Fifty billion is enough."

Liu Yun took a deep breath, trying to appear normal, but even so, her expression was still quite interesting. "Sister Lin, I... don't have much savings. Let alone 5 billion, I can't even come up with 500 million."

That is absolutely true.

As the branch manager of Qingyaoxu in Yancheng, she did indeed make a lot of money.

No matter how much money she makes, her assets will never reach the staggering billions. Making money is not about printing money!

"Can't even come up with 500 million?"

Meeting Lin Shu's surprised gaze, Liu Yun was not afraid of losing face and nodded, saying, "Sister Lin, I am not like you. Although I am the branch manager of Qingyaoxu, I am just an employee in the end. You are overestimating me by using hundreds of millions as a unit of measurement all the time."

Lin Shu sighed with feigned regret, "In that case... I'll borrow four hundred million."

If you don't have 500 million, lending 400 million isn't unreasonable, is it?

Liu Yun: "..."

Why can't we get over the topic of borrowing money?

She dared not lend Lin Shu any money, not even a single penny!

The importance of this extraordinary fruit far outweighs her position as branch manager. If anything goes wrong, the higher-ups will definitely investigate thoroughly. If they find out that she, as the branch manager, lent money to the eldest daughter of the Lin family, she will surely be executed.

Thinking of this, Liu Jun forced a smile and said, "Sister Lin, I invested all my money in investment products a while ago, and now I can't withdraw it at all."

Lin Shu looked resentful. "Xiao Jun, people say that lending money is a measure of friendship. What you're doing makes me doubt our friendship."

"cough--"

Liu Yun was extremely embarrassed.

When she first met Lin Shu, he helped her a lot.

Moreover, this was the first time Lin Shu had asked her for money, so she shouldn't have refused.

But now that the extraordinary fruit has come up, she really doesn't dare to lend money to Lin Shu for the sake of her life.

"Tomorrow! Give me one night, and I'll definitely raise 500 million to lend to Sister Lin tomorrow, how about that?"

"never mind."

Lin Shu looked disappointed. "I borrowed money to bid for this advanced fruit, but it'll be too late by tomorrow."

After saying that, she noticed that there were only thirty seconds left on the countdown and casually pressed a button on the auction device in her hand.

Following Lin Shu's bid, a bid of 1.1 billion was immediately displayed after code number one, and the countdown above restarted.

"Box number one has offered 1.1 billion!"

Liu Yun remained silent upon noticing Lin Shu's offer.

I've said everything I needed to say.

To try to persuade them further would seem too deliberate.

If Lin Shu wants to film, then let her film.

How much money could she possibly have?

Having figured this out, Liu Yun stood up and said, "Sister Lin, you keep taking pictures. I'll go out and call my friends to try and raise some money."

"Thanks."

"Click——"

After the door to the private room closed, Lin Mo raised his hand and poked An Youyu's soft cheek. "Alright, the show's over."

An Youyu breathed a sigh of relief, "That was...so complicated..."

"Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills."

Lin Shu chuckled softly, "Yu'er, we're all quite cunning, it's normal that you're not used to it; but you don't need to get used to it, Auntie's here..."

"cough!"

Hearing her son cough, Lin Shu changed the subject: "With Xiao Mo around, no one can bully you."

Lin Mo glanced at him.

This is right!

That's what a qualified wingman should be!

Meanwhile, in VIP box number two.

Upon hearing that someone had participated in the bidding, Jiang Xiao's eyes flashed with a sharp light. "Box number one? If I'm not mistaken, this is Qing Yaoxu's person."

Yan Tianzong bowed his head. "Now that Qingyao Xu's people have made their move, Second Young Master can also submit a bid."

Jiang Xiao picked up the bidding device, his eyes filled with disdain. "You can only increase the bid by one hundred million at a time. How long will this go on? It's a load of crap!"

Faced with Jiang Xiao's sudden outburst of cursing, Yan Tianzong couldn't hold back and joked with a smile, "This kind of cursing is really not like the Second Young Master's style."

Jiang Xiao smiled frankly, "It's good to be reserved all the time and occasionally let your true nature out. It's just me and my master here, so I don't need to pretend."

After saying that, he pressed the bidding button four times in a row.

"Box number two has offered 1.5 billion!"

Upon hearing this price, many people in the private rooms gasped in shock.

Just for a fruit they'd never seen before, based on a few words from the auctioneer, someone was actually willing to pay 1.5 billion for it?

This……

stupid*?

No, that's not accurate enough!

To be precise, this guy is a complete idiot!

No matter how rich you are, you can't afford to squander money like this!

"Oh?"

Lin Shu leaned back on the sofa, resting her chin on her hand. "Here comes our competitor."

Lin Mo leaned forward slightly. "So it seems that the second VIP room belongs to Qing Yaoxu."

"Probably not."

An Youyu slowly stood up, and her words surprised both mother and son.

She walked lightly behind Lin Shu and gently pressed her jade-like hand on his shoulder. "The people in the second private room didn't participate in any bidding. Qing Yaoxu's people shouldn't be like that. After all, they've gone through such a long process. They should at least pretend to be something they're not, and at least make it look presentable on the surface."

"In my opinion, the people from Qingyaoxu should be in VIP room number 27. They bid on 67 items before, and VIP room number 27 would bid immediately. After that, there was no further activity, and they didn't manage to win a single item. This is not normal."

This analysis left the mother and son speechless.

Lin Shu opened her mouth, "Fish, fish, you can remember such insignificant things?"

"can."

An Youyu nodded, "I remember which item was won by which VIP room, and at what price; or how many bids were placed, and at what price each time."

"..."

Chapter 277 Suggestion!

In box number one.

The mother and son stared at each other for a long time, their eyes filled with complex emotions.

The longer I spend with An Youyu, the more I realize how capable she is.

Putting everything else aside, that photographic memory ability is truly...abnormal!

Lin Mo felt this most deeply. After acquiring advanced reading comprehension, his memory had improved several times over, but even so, he still couldn't reach the level of An Youyu.

Simply put, he, who had a cheat code, was completely dominated by An Youyu!

Seeing that the two remained silent, An Youyu whispered, "Auntie, Lin Mo, everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, I can vouch for it. Just now, the first bid for room number 27 was 15.5 million, the second bid was 1.36 million, and the third bid..."
