Huo Yanhui stared blankly at the hammer, feeling as if it was falling on his chest.

At that moment, he heard the sound of his hopes being shattered.

As the illegitimate son of the Huo family, Huo Yanhui did not care about the Huo family at all even though he had been better off than the children of ordinary families since he was born.

However, the resources and connections of the Huo family had never had anything to do with him.

The other second-generation members of the Huo family had also ostracized him in the open and in the dark, treating him as a lackey and a laughing stock.

Huo Yanhui had always dreamed of a chance for him to show his talent and gain resources.

Originally, as long as he could get the painting, “Summer Dream”, he would be able to gain the appreciation of Old Master Ye Weijun and gain the right to stand firm in the capital.

But now, he could only watch as the opportunity flew away.

Huo Yanhui was very upset. He especially wanted to know who had spent 500 million to snatch away his chance to make a comeback.

If looks could kill, he would have long stared at Lin Bai until two bloody holes appeared on his body.

Actually, Huo Yanhui was not the only one staring at Lin Bai.

Yu Jinmo also kept turning her head to look at Lin Bai, who was in the last corner.

She always felt that the mysterious person in the corner looked very familiar.

His hairstyle and expression… The more she looked at him, the more familiar he seemed to be to her.

Yu Jianhao noticed that his daughter kept turning her head to look back, so he asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”

Yu Jinmo shook his head and said, “Nothing.”

She thought to herself that she must have thought too much.

How could Lin Bai appear here?

Moreover, even if he was here, he wouldn’t be able to come up with so much money as 500 million.

She thought that she must have missed Lin Bai too much and misjudged him.

Lin Bai also noticed that Yu Jinmo had been staring at him.

He couldn’t help but feel a little guilty and thought to himself, ‘Could it be that she recognized me?’

However, on second thought, he remembered that half of his face was covered by the mask and he was sitting far away from her, so she shouldn’t be able to recognize him.

At most, she would suspect it.

As long as he refused to admit it, it would be fine.

In order to create the illusion that he was still in school, Lin Bai decided to send a message to Luo Yang.

“Are you in the dormitory? Help me take a photo.”

Luo Yang quickly sent the photo over and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Lin Bai did not reply to him and directly sent the photo to Yu Jinmo.

He even added a sentence, “It’s so boring here in the dormitory. I miss you.”

When Yu Jinmo received the message, the last trace of doubt in the depths of her heart completely disappeared.

She muttered to herself, “I knew it. How could he possibly come?”

After that, she quickly typed a reply, “I miss you too. We can meet tomorrow when we get back. Mwah.”

She turned around and looked at the mysterious person in the corner. Suddenly, she felt that he did not look like Lin Bai at all.

The rest of the auction was all mundane and uninteresting. Lin Bai was not interested in it at all.

Hence, Lin Bai simply kept his head hung low and chatted passionately with Yu Jinmo over text messages.

Lin Bai did not realize that his actions made him look even more mysterious in the eyes of others.

Others only thought that he was young and promising, that he was already worth over a hundred million at such a young age, and that he was unusually hardworking. He did not even forget to deal with business despite attending the auction.

No one would have thought that he was actually just flirting with his girlfriend.

After more than an hour, the auction finally came to an end.

The auctioneer announced passionately:

“Ladies and gentlemen, the next item is the grand finale item of this auction, the Mayan prophecy tablet. believe that everyone has more or less heard of the legends about the Mayan civilization. The Mayan civilization is brilliant and can even be said to be a miracle in human history. Apart from all kinds of dazzling achievements, the unsolved mysteries left behind by the Mayan civilization were also very fascinating. Among them, the most interesting one was the various prophecies of the Mayans about the future.

“The stone tablet in my hand is a tool used by the Mayan priests to predict the future. Not only does it carry the mysterious Mayan civilization, it has extremely high research value, and it is also very likely that it will allow its owner to gain the ability to divine the future.”

..

The auctioneer described the prophecy tablet in a dazzling manner, and all the bidders present were very moved.

After all, those who were qualified to participate in Sotheby’s auction were all either rich or noble.

Money and power were of limited appeal to them.

However, the ability to predict the future was different.

No one could guarantee that they and the families behind them would always be able to run smoothly without any difficulties or crises.

Everyone’s hearts were filled with uneasiness.

If the prophecy tablet could really predict the future, wouldn’t it be able to predict the dangers ahead of time, help them avoid danger, and give them and their family more security?

Even if it was just a one in ten million chance, they still wanted to give it a try.

With this thought in mind, everyone started to bid crazily from the start of the auction.

After the bid price exceeded one billion, the speed of everyone’s bidding gradually slowed down.

A small number of them had no choice but to give up bidding because their own financial resources did not allow it.

However, most people still felt that it was not worth it.

Although predicting the future was very attractive to them, it was still illusory. It was not worth it to spend more than one billion on this.

Only Huo Yanhui’s father, Huo Zechuan, and a few other big shots of the wealthy families were still bidding.

Huo Zechuan, in particular, even looked like he was determined to win. Every time he raised the price, it would jump up by tens of millions. He was so aggressive that he wanted to beat all his competitors.

The other big shots of the wealthy families were not polite either. They also crazily raised the price by tens of millions.

After a few rounds, the bidding price had already exceeded two billion.

A few more big shots felt that it wasn’t worth it and stopped bidding.

Only Huo Zechuan, the youngest grandson of the Ning family, and the eldest daughter of the Jiang family continued to compete.

Seeing that they had already raised the price to 2.5 billion, Lin Bai finally put away his phone and raised his bid.

“Three billion.”

Lin Bai directly called out the final price.

Anyway, the Future News app had already indicated that the final price of the prophecy tablet was 3 billion, and there would be no change.

Rather than slowly increasing the price bit by bit and wasting time, it was better to end the competition with the final price. It would save him time and effort.

Lin Bai thought simply, but he didn’t realize that his actions were provocative in the eyes of the Huo, Ning, and Jiang families.

He hadn’t participated in the bidding earlier, but now, he suddenly increased the price by a large margin from 2.5 billion to 3 billion.

Wasn’t it obvious that he didn’t take the three families seriously?

Putting aside the Huo family, the Ning family and the Jiang family were both well-known wealthy families in the gentry circle of the capital. They were the kind of existences that could shake half of the country with a stomp of their feet.

When had they ever been so humiliated by others?
