Gu Ziwei only felt regretful. She should not have spent a lot of money to bid with Song Nanruo. In the end, she only got a jade bracelet with a huge premium.
The auction that followed was uneventful.
Gu Ziwei and Qin Yuyan were banned from auctioning.
Song Nanruo's taking of the pink diamond fulfilled the purpose of attending the event, and they were not interested in other auction items.
After the auction, the guests left the venue in an orderly manner.
Qin Yuyan and Qin Shiyue's private rooms were adjacent to each other, and they inevitably met when they left the venue.
Only at this moment did Gu Ziwei realize what Song Nanruo had done just now. She reluctantly called out to Song Nanruo, "Song Nanruo! You are so despicable!"
Song Nanruo's steps stagnated, and she turned around to look at Gu Ziwei.
Gu Ziwei accused: "Song Nanruo, you are really good at it. It's too bad to deliberately raise the price with me!"
Song Nanruo was helpless by her sudden accusation.
"If Miss Gu feels that what I did is despicable and you are not convinced, you can report it to the auction house staff." Song Nanruo suggested with a normal expression.
Naturally, it was impossible for Gu Ziwei to tell the staff about this. She was very angry: "What are you doing?"
Before Gu Ziwei could finish her words, Song Nanruo interrupted her.
"Bidding and increasing the price is just a normal process of the auction. I hope Miss Gu will not be unable to afford it."
Gu Ziwei couldn't listen to the explanation. She only thought that Song Nanruo was having trouble with her, but she didn't care who took the initiative to provoke him repeatedly.
"You are targeting me! Why don't you bid with others and only bid with me?"
Gu Ziwei's words couldn't help but make Song Nanruo turn his attention to her, and then asked: "Then Miss Gu, why should I specifically target you?"
Gu Ziwei was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer this question. She didn't speak for a long time, and then she caught a trace of her thoughts.
"You are jealous that I starred as the heroine of "The Storm"."
Gu Ziwei became more and more certain that Song Nanruo was resenting herself for taking her role.
"Miss Gu, instead of thinking that you will be persecuted here, it is better to go back and improve your acting skills." Song Nanruo advised.
However, Gu Ziwei became even more angry when her acting skills were mentioned. She still remembered Wei Mo's completely different attitude towards her and Song Nanruo when they were on the set of "The Wind and Cloud".
She only thought that Song Nanruo was showing off her acting skills. Gu Ziwei was not willing to admit that her acting skills were inferior to others, so she spoke impulsively.
"Song Nanruo, since you are so confident, do you dare to agree on a bet with me?"
"What kind of bet?" Song Nanruo raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at her.
"Let's compare the box office of this movie and see whether your "The Legend of Demon God" has a higher box office or my "Wind and Cloud" is better."
Gu Ziwei was arrogant.
"What are you betting on?" Song Nanruo continued to ask.
Gu Ziwei sneered, looking confident of winning, "Whoever has a low box office will publicly apologize to the other person and withdraw from the entertainment industry from now on."
Gu Ziwei was full of confidence and determined that she would not lose to her, so she made a big bet.
Song Nanruo's temperament was such that she would not be afraid. She nodded and agreed to the agreement.
At night, a bright moon hangs in the sky.
The faint moonlight shines into Qin Shiyue's bedroom through the window and hits the bed. The moonlight reflects Song Nanruo, who is sleeping soundly on the bed.
Qin Shiyue quietly stood up and walked out of the bedroom quietly, not forgetting to carefully close the bedroom door so as not to disturb the sleeping Song Nanruo.
Qin Shiyue walked to the study, took out his vibrating mobile phone, and answered the call.
"Old Xu, thank you for reluctantly parting with me." Qin Shiyue thanked him sincerely, "for giving away your beloved pink diamond."
The other end of the phone pretended to be exaggerated, "You also know that's my precious pink diamond! You knew I was reluctant to part with it, but you still had the nerve to ask for it."
Qin Shiyue chuckled lightly.
The voice on the other end continued, and the person called Lao Xu joked: "But this is a rare thing for you, Shiyue, to ask me for. Of course I can't let you down."
After the two briefly exchanged greetings, they hung up the phone.
A few days later, time quickly came to the grand opening of the Hundred Flowers Awards Ceremony.
Qin Shiyue also wanted to attend the award ceremony, so he went with Song Nanruo.
The two appeared together and immediately caused a sensation.
Song Nanruo was wearing the aqua blue evening dress that Qin Shiyue bought for her a few days ago. She styled it to match the evening dress today.
Her wavy black hair was pulled back, with a few strands of hair left on both sides of her cheeks. She also wore a small crown studded with diamonds on top of her head, which made her look extremely noble.
Song Nanruo's makeup today was even more beautiful. Her red lips contrasted sharply with her aqua blue evening dress, making her look noble and cool. In addition, Song Nanruo had a rare smile on her face, which was even more in line with her temperament.
Qin Shiyue next to her was wearing a red suit, retro and calm, with a black satin dress collar that was gentlemanly and elegant, and a unique diamond-encrusted lapel pin that was exquisite but not ostentatious. His elegant appearance had a bit of nobility.
It is obvious that Qin Shiyue's red suit was specially designed to match Song Nanruo's aqua blue evening dress.
The two men were handsome and the woman was beautiful, and they appeared as a pair and stunned the whole audience when they appeared.
"Miss Nan's look today is so beautiful. This look alone is enough to be a hot search."
"I don't allow you to only notice Miss Nan. Young Master Qin is also really handsome. How can someone look so good in a red suit?"
"Only Miss Nan can match Young Master Qin. The two of them are still dressed in couple colors today! Rounding things off, isn't this just like wearing couple clothes?"
Song Nanruo and Qin Shiyue attracted the attention of the audience, and they were in awe for a while.
The appearance of the two people had already surpassed that of Gu Ziwei and Qin Yuyan who had just entered the scene.
Song Nanruo and Qin Shiyue didn't stay long. Song Nanruo stepped on a pair of high heels and held Qin Shiyue's arm, and they walked into the venue together.
The reporters who were left outside kept pressing the shutter on Song Nanruo and Qin Shiyue, even refusing to let go of their backs.
The rest of the onlookers were still talking about the two of them, including many of them CP fans.
Song Shengzhou came to the scene next.
Song Shengzhou looked unkind, and Song Xiayue, who forced a smile next to him, looked particularly embarrassed.
Accompanying Song Xiayue was not his original intention, he was just forced by his grandma.
After entering the venue, Song Shengzhou no longer concealed himself, immediately left Song Xiayue behind and went to look for his baby sister.
Song Xiayue looked at his back reluctantly, her eyes filled with jealousy.
As the award ceremony was about to begin, the guests at the scene took their seats one after another. The seats were arranged for men and women.
Coincidentally, Song Nanruo and Song Xiayue were seated next to each other.
Song Xiayue pretended to be looking forward to it, and said in a pretentious manner: "Sister, it's not safe outside after all. You'd better come home early. Grandma misses you very much these days when you're not at home."
"Okay." Song Nanruo's answer was unexpected, "I will go back to live after you leave the Song family."
