Trillionaire's Slice of Life

"Two hundred thousand."

In the middle of the hall, a gentle and elegant voice filled with a languid tone took hold as everyone's eyes converged on the mesmerizing woman at the center, and a clear look of recognition flickered in the depths of their gazes. Explore stories at My Virtual Library Empire

First, it was Lin Youzhi, the Family Head of the Lin family, and now Lin Ling'er, the young miss of the Lin family had joined in, making it clear that the Lin family intended to thoroughly disrupt the proceedings. The Lin family was ready to go head-to-head with Bafang Kelai Jewelry Store.

Fan Zhijian, seated in the front row, had a grim expression on his face, like still water. He had staked the future of his entire clan, opening three hundred and sixty jewelry stores in a single month, depleting the Fan family's connections and potential. If they couldn't make the Lin family bleed this time, his Fan family would naturally be the unlucky ones.

The jewelry store had just opened, and Lin family's provocations were relentless, so the pressure he faced was immense.

At this moment, Chu Mo in the front row slightly curved his lips. He leaned subtly toward Princess Mina Gong beside him, and then, whispering into her ear with a hint of a smile, Chu Mo said softly,

"Princess, this 'Heart of the Deep Sea' necklace was specially prepared for you, it matches with the two hundred million US dollar necklace I gave you before; wearing them alternately would perfectly highlight Your Highness's nobility!"

As the delicate words fell, the blonde woman beside him also curled her lips slightly. The world's most famous jewelry queen glanced at Chu Mo with coquettish eyes before speaking lightly,

"As for necklaces, I have plenty at my disposal. When it comes to items like the 'Heart of the Deep Sea', there are at least a dozen in my vault. Even if I wear a different one each day, I could go half a month without repeating, so I'm not lacking one 'Heart of the Deep Sea'!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Mo couldn't help but sport a wry smile. However, before he could speak, the blonde woman by his side chuckled with a hand over her mouth,

"Still don't get your point? You just want me to bid, then put pressure on the Lin family, right?"

The fact that Princess had seen through Chu Mo's thoughts left him with no room to argue, and he replied earnestly,

"Nothing gets past Princess Mina!"

The woman once again rolled her coquettish eyes, then, without further tangle with Chu Mo, she gracefully raised her right hand, her voice noble and infused with elegance,

"One million!"

Mina did not jump to the billion-level pricing like Geng Pan did before, nor did she increase the bid by ten thousand at a time, but she did raise it to a level that was quite ordinary yet decidedly deserving of deep thought.

The Lin family from Hua Country was in the jewelry business, owning over three hundred stores nationwide with a scale reaching the hundreds of billions, and although far behind Princess Mina's trillion-dollar net worth, it was comparable to a tenth of her scale, certainly not an ant easily squashed with a slap.

Princess Mina and the Lin family had some connection, and she did not wish to push the situation with them to a point of mutual destruction. After all, she was just a supplier, not yet at the point where she was directly competing in the ring with the Lin family, so she restrained herself when bidding!

One million was both an assertion of her determination to secure the 'Heart of the Deep Sea' and a message to the Lin family that she had no intention to vie with them for superiority.

However, at this moment, Lin Ling'er did not seem to have any intention of backing down. In her view, anyone standing with Fan Zhijian was an enemy, and naturally, she would show no mercy toward her enemies.

Therefore, as soon as Mina made her bid and even before Lin Youzhi could stop her, Lin Ling'er raised her hand and called out a price that was clearly targeted!

"One million one hundred thousand!"

Lin Youzhi's mouth opened slightly as he sighed softly, then he chose to remain silent.

With Lin Ling'er's renewed pressure, Princess Mina, who had previously maintained a congenial face, for the first time withdrew her expression.

As a jewelry queen, one of the most powerful women in the world, also a trillionaire backed by the entire British royal family, she naturally carried her own pride. In the past, wherever she was, whether it was for status or beauty, she was always the most eye-catching presence.

At any auction, and with any piece of jewelry, as soon as she spoke, it was generally taken as the final word; no one would dare compete with the jewelry queen or risk offending the entire British royalty by opposing Princess Mina.

This was the first time since Wei'er Mina became famous that someone had defied her will.

So, the originally intent Wei'er Mina, who had tried to avoid conflict with the Lin family, now possessed a coldness in her blue eyes, and, raising her hand a second time, she said,

"Ten million!"

From a hundred thousand to a million, and then from a million to ten million, Princess Mina's bids increased tenfold each time.

This time, Lin Youzhi finally stopped Lin Ling'er from bidding again before she could act. He was well aware of the jewelry queen's capabilities, as she controlled nearly a quarter of the world's jewelry trade – far beyond what a mere Lin family from Hua Country could contend with.

Even if the Lin family had the support of Hua Country's eight major families, Lin Youzhi knew that they would only lend a hand when things were going smoothly, and would definitely not give him a second glance if he fell into an abyss!

Lin Youzhi didn't want to antagonize Princess Mina, so he used a look to stop Lin Ling'er from bidding. Amid Lin Ling'er's slight dissatisfaction, the auctioneer in the front row spoke up:
