My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

Lin Shu insisted on this, and Liu Yun knew she couldn't dissuade him.

For now, we can only take it one step at a time.

As Lin Shu raised the price dramatically, the other three VIP boxes also joined in the bidding, raising their prices wildly as well.

"Box number two has offered 40 billion!"

"Box 18 has offered 43 billion!"

"Private room number twenty-seven has offered 45 billion!"

"Box number one has offered 50 billion!"

...

"Box number two has offered 70 billion!"

In just five minutes, the price of the extraordinary fruit jumped from 35 billion to an astonishing 70 billion, leaving the VIPs in each private room completely stunned.

Seventy billion!!!

At this point, even the most naive person would realize that there was definitely something fishy about the advancement fruit on the screen.

Even if they realized something was wrong, they weren't qualified to participate.

Those who are invited by Qingyao Xu are either rich or noble.

But these kinds of auctions, which often involve billions or even tens of billions of dollars, are simply beyond the reach of people like them.

When the price reached 70 billion, Box 18 made another bid.

78.6 billion!

Upon hearing this price, the remaining three companies breathed a sigh of relief.

Such a rounded bid clearly indicates that this price was the last bid from box number 18.

Inside VIP room number 27.

A gray-haired man in his sixties, his eyes gleaming, said, "Finally unable to hold on? There are still two more. I'd like to see how long you can hold out!"

Box number two.

At this moment, Jiang Xiao's forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat.

Even though he came from a prestigious family and had little concept of money since childhood, the competition involving hundreds of billions still made him involuntarily nervous.

"Master, we still have over 20 billion in funds left. This can't go on!"

Yan Tianzong, who was resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them, took out his phone, glanced at the messages, and smiled confidently.

"Second Young Master, funding is not a problem. The Jiang family has already given up on the competition in the capital and is now focusing all its efforts on competing for this extraordinary fruit in Yancheng. The funds will be in your account soon."

"Ding--"

No sooner had Yan Tianzong finished speaking than Jiang Xiao's phone rang.

Jiang Xiao became excited when he saw a huge sum of money arrive in his account.

"Alright, I'd like to see who gives up first!"

Chapter 281 Lin Shu's Versailles!

"Eighty billion!"

"Box number two has offered 80 billion!"

Jiang Xiao made another bid, a move that successfully persuaded the people in VIP room number 18 to leave.

"Grass!"

In VIP room number 18, a middle-aged man slammed his teacup to the ground, staring at the screen with a gloomy expression. "They can't compete in the capital, so they're not even letting go of Yancheng. These top-tier families are just too arrogant and bullying!"

A sexy woman standing behind the man massaged his shoulders. "Master, there's no need to get angry. It's always been this way. It's a pity we weren't firm enough from the beginning. If we had known this would happen, we should have brought all our funds to Yancheng and gambled everything."

"Ugh!"

The middle-aged man looked regretful. "One wrong step leads to another."

"Fine, since bidding isn't an option, we'll have to take another one."

The woman bent down slightly, letting the man rest his head on her chest. "Everything has been arranged. Patriarch, you can rest assured. This extraordinary fruit will not escape."

The man savored the woman's softness, took out a cigar, lit it, and took a deep drag. "Are there enough people?"

Other forces will do the same thing, so we must ensure that nothing goes wrong!

"Are the Seven Wonders of Phoenix Pavilion enough?"

"enough!"

The man's expression changed, and he immediately burst into laughter, "That's enough!"

...

Box number 27.

The old man adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose. "There are two left. Well then, I'll speed things up."

"One hundred billion!"

"Box number 27 has offered 100 billion!"

The auctioneer's expression changed, and he loudly announced the price.

Ninety-nine percent of the people who participated in this auction were terrified.

One hundred billion?

Keep in mind, this is an auction, not a valuation!

As is well known, Qingyaoxu's auctions do not accept items as collateral, including various rare items and real estate; only cash is accepted!

Looking across the entire Xia Kingdom, there are very few people who can come up with hundreds of billions of yuan in liquid funds.

OMG!

What exactly is this fruit that fetched such an astonishingly high price?

The price of 100 billion is indeed frightening, but it does not deter Lin Shu in Box 1 and Jiang Xiao in Box 2.

Lin Shu did not make a bid immediately. After hearing that the price of the extraordinary fruit in VIP room number 27 had been raised to 100 billion, she calmly took out her phone and dialed a number.

"Borrow some money."

"How many?"

A clear and strong male voice came from the other end of the phone.

Lin Shu smiled elegantly, her gaze falling on Liu Yun opposite her. "The more the better."

"One minute."

The phone hangs up.

Lin Shu gave her son a reassuring look, bent down to pour a cup of tea, picked up the cup and took a small sip, "Xiao Mo, Mom doesn't have many friends, but the few she does have are all big shots."

Lin Mo's lips twitched. "Mom, are you in Versailles?"

"No, that's just a fact."

Although Lin Shu said this, she made no attempt to hide the smile on her face.

Versailles?

That's right, she was in Versailles!

If you have the qualifications, why are you extraordinary?

She leaned against the single sofa and said, "Xiaojun, don't look at me like that. People might think I did something to wrong you."

Liu Yun stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "Sister Lin, you should know how important this extraordinary fruit is to Qing Yaoxu, so why do you insist on participating in this competition?"

Why not participate?

Faced with Lin Shu's question, Liu Yun scratched her head in despair, "Sister, with the strength of your Lin family, you can definitely obtain a transcendent fruit in the capital."

"As you know, there are only four extraordinary fruits this time. The three in the capital will definitely be divided among the three super-grade families. Why can't we leave the extraordinary fruit in Yancheng to Qing Yaoxu?"

"I didn't say no."

Lin Shu looked completely innocent. "Xiao Jun, I was just competing normally. I didn't use any underhanded methods. Besides, who would complain about having too many good things?"

"I can't control the competition in the capital, but I must get this extraordinary fruit in Yancheng!"

"You saw what happened just now. Xiao Mo really put it that way. If I, as his mother, didn't help him buy this extraordinary fruit, wouldn't I be too ashamed?"

"That's right!"

Lin Mo nodded in deep agreement, "Mom, if you can't get this extraordinary fruit, I will definitely look down on you!"

Liu Yun's face twitched. "Can you two stop acting? Do you really think I'm a fool?"

"Tsk!"

Lin Shu smiled and comforted her, "Don't be angry."

Liu Yun, her face grim, gulped down a large mouthful of tea. "If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have answered your call earlier. Now look what's happened; if you really do manage to snatch the extraordinary fruit..."

"It's no big deal if they take it."

Before Liu Yun could finish speaking, Lin Shu interrupted her, saying lightly, "Qing Yaoxu has other plans. Even if I successfully take this extraordinary fruit out of Yancheng, it's not your place as the branch manager to take the blame."

"Sister Lin, this isn't about whether or not I should take the blame."

Liu Yun's graceful figure heaved violently as she forcefully jabbed the sofa, saying, "Knowing that Qingyaoxu has other plans, you shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess."

At this point, she lowered her voice considerably, "Sister, now that we've come this far, I'll speak from the bottom of my heart: no matter how many experts the Lin family brings, the extraordinary fruit won't leave Yancheng!"

"So confident?"

Lin Shu raised an eyebrow with interest and leaned forward slightly. "Xiao Jun, how about we make a bet?"

Upon hearing the word "bet," An Youyu's expression turned strange, and she kept poking her chin with her little finger.

The saying "like mother, like son" is certainly true.
