Transmigrated into a wealthy family's stepmother, I raised the villain into a sweet child.

Ultimately, Zhou Yanqian stopped holding up the sign and sat quietly next to Jinxi, watching them fight.

Not long after, the pink diamond set that Boss Su Yan had her eye on went up for auction.

This outfit is indeed very beautiful. Jinxi couldn't help but take a second look. The firelight dazzled her eyes, and she couldn't take her eyes off it.

No wonder Boss Su Yan prepared ten million to bid for this thing; it makes perfect sense.

Zhou Linxu had just finished chatting with the boss next door when he turned around and saw Jin Xi staring intently at him.

He asked, "Do you like it?"

Jin Xi said, "Of course I like beautiful things."

Seeing Zhou Linxu about to pick up the bidding paddle out of the corner of her eye, Jinxi quickly said, "Su Yan just said that her boss prepared ten million to bid for this set of jewelry. I was just amazed at how beautiful it was, I didn't mean anything else."

Zhou Linxu simply said "Oh," understanding her meaning, and said, "So you want to help others achieve their goals."

Zhou Yanqian nodded in agreement. Xiao Xi was good in every way. Her fists were hard and her strength was second to none. She was just too polite. No, she was polite to everyone except him. Xiao Xi was not polite to him at all!

She inexplicably wanted to kiss him and also wanted him to sleep with her.

Zhou Yanqian's little expressions were quite interesting, but no one noticed him at the moment.

Because the situation has now reached a fever pitch, the bidding has become significantly more intense. It started at ten, then twenty, and then increased to fifty, but in the end, Su Yan's boss won the bid for nine million eight hundred thousand.

Jinxi was completely stunned; what a thrilling auction!

That's really intense.

Zhou Yanqian looked down at Jinxi, who was holding his little hand. When she was excited, she would unconsciously squeeze his hand, which really showed no tenderness towards the child.

Do you know that this hurts a little?

Jinxi genuinely didn't notice until the pink diamond was taken away and the auction of the last piece of jewelry took place, at which point she looked down at her baby's little hand.

"Oh my, Xiao Bao's hands are so nice to touch..." Jin Xi rubbed them gently again, feeling a little guilty, and didn't dare to look Zan Zan in the eye.

However, looking at the jewelry covered by a black cloth on the stage, Jinxi asked, "Wasn't that pink diamond set the last one? How come there's still one? I didn't see any information on the tablet."

Zhou Linxu explained in a low voice, "Some collectors will request that specific information not be disclosed and can only be seen at the scene. You can think of it as a hidden surprise. Generally, the level of these items will be much higher than that of the items auctioned that night, and the starting price will also be much higher."

Jinxi understands now. If those items that weren't in the catalog but appeared on the tablet at the auction were S-level surprises, then this one is SSS-level.

She glanced around instinctively and noticed that the discussion had grown louder; it seemed everyone was also curious about this SSS Easter egg.

They even saw Jin Yun sitting next to Jin Chen, and the two of them were talking about something. But judging from her gaze and behavior, she seemed to want to take pictures of this set of jewelry that had not yet been shown.

Jinxi thought back and realized that she hadn't heard Jin Yun and Jin Chen make any bids tonight.

Could it be that these two people came specifically for this set of jewelry?

However, it's none of her business anymore.

As soon as Jinxi turned her head back, the large screen on the stage began to introduce the last set of jewelry items for auction.

When the black cloth was pulled back, Jinxi's eyes lit up instantly.

So beautiful! How come there are so many beautiful jewels?

The host introduced, "This is a set of aquamarine gemstones: a tiara, earrings, and a necklace. Each aquamarine was hand-polished by Hayley, a master jeweler from the US in the last century, taking three years to complete. This is also the last treasure she left behind..."

Zhou Linxu turned his head to look at Jin Xi, intending to ask her if she liked it, but when he turned his head, he saw that she seemed to be stunned, and even her eyes were bigger than when she looked at the previous auction items.

This sight reminded him of a saying.

There are three things in this world that cannot be hidden: a sneeze, poverty, and love.

Jinxi doesn't dislike it; she likes it very much now.

Knowing that she liked it, Zhou Linxu felt much more relaxed. That night, apart from the two sets of jewelry she initially wanted, she refused all the others for various reasons.

Some might like it, but still refrain from bidding.

Although they are a contractual couple, he did not restrict Jinxi's spending and even gave her a supplementary credit card, which she could use on weekdays. The only requirement was that she take good care of Zanzan.

It seems that ever since he went on his business trip, Jinxi hasn't touched the supplementary card he gave her. When he returned home, she never showed him any new bags. In fact, every time she went out, she only had a large black bag, which contained all sorts of things, such as water cups, tissues, wet wipes, and sometimes sweat towels that Zanzan needed.

Zhou Linxu also reflected on it. After he returned from his business trip, Jin Xi's temper had changed a lot. Although she still had the same face, she gave people a much brighter feeling and had also learned many skills that he did not know.

Before getting the marriage certificate, he had thoroughly investigated Jinxi's situation. Zhou Linxu discovered that some things cannot be thought about too closely; once you think about them carefully, you can find many loopholes.

"The starting bid is ten million, and each bid increases by five hundred thousand. Please raise your paddles, gentlemen."

"Boss number eighteen offered fifteen million."

Zhou Linxu was brought back to his senses by the starter's voice, and his gaze fell on Jin Xi again.

It was noticed that both Jinxi and Zanzan were looking at the bidder, looking like they were watching the drama unfold.

He himself didn't realize that the smile in his eyes had deepened considerably.

Jinxi muttered to herself, "Baby, who do you think will win?"

Zhou Yanqian thought about it carefully, then said, "You."

Jinxi lowered her head and said with a grin, "Okay, Xiaoxi will have this dream tonight."

Zhou Yanqian said, "You can use my money."

Besides the New Year's money, he remembered that when he was a child, Zhou Linxu set up some kind of trust for him. Starting when he was eighteen, five million would be automatically deposited into his account every year until he was fifty. This money was completely under his control and he did not need to ask anyone for permission.

He also owns shares in the Zhou Group. In fact, even if he didn't inherit the Zhou Group, he would never run out of money.

Yeah, so why did he have to inherit the Zhou Group in his past life? He was exhausted and suffered so much...

Zhou Yanqian's thoughts began to wander, but Jin Xi gently rubbed his cheek, pulling him back to reality.

Jinxi said sweetly, "Okay, I'll use it."

Seeing that she didn't take it to heart, Zhou Yanqian said even more earnestly, "You're not listening to me. I really am very rich. If you like it, I'll buy it for you."

Xiao Xi behaved very well. He wasn't as stingy as Zhou Linxu, who wouldn't even buy him a set of jewelry.

He had just noticed that Jinxi's gaze towards the aquamarine set was completely different.

She likes it.

Jinxi lowered her head and said softly, "I'm serious, but liking something doesn't mean you have to have it, right? Even if I bought it, this set of gemstones is so expensive, I wouldn't dare wear it."

Let alone this set of gemstones with a starting bid of tens of millions, even the pearls that Zan Zan bought for her for eight hundred thousand felt a bit "heavy" to her.

"Why?" Zhou Yanqian didn't quite understand Jin Xi's thoughts.

"It's expensive, what if it gets lost?" Jinxi said casually, "It feels like a waste to just keep it at home as a statue."

Zhou Yanqian thought Jin Xi was worrying unnecessarily.

It's just a few sets of jewelry, why are you so "apprehensive" about it?

Even if it's lost, can't we just buy another one?

He really has a lot of money! He can afford it!

Zhou Yanqian turned his head, preparing to take the sign, but another broad hand rose up even faster.

Zhou Linxu's tone remained largely unchanged as he stated bluntly, "Light the lamps."
