The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Hide Multiple Identities-Chapter 409: The Auction Officially Begins

Nan Yu understood, she took the mask and put it on, wearing it on her face.

Xu Qi wore a black mask with a puppy pattern, while Qi Ming wore another white mask with a kitty pattern.

Once they put them on, if you didn’t know beforehand, you really couldn’t recognize them.

Xu Qi walked in front, led by a waiter down the hotel staircase.

At the very bottom of the hotel, there was a design resembling a funnel.

Above was a circle of clear private boxes, where everything inside the boxes could be clearly seen.

By then, all the other boxes were filled with people.

At the very bottom was a small platform, which was the auction stage for later.

Nan Yu sat in a private box, overlooking the auction stage with an unobstructed view.

Additionally, the auction was equipped with high-tech devices. When items were displayed below, screens in the boxes would show the display synchronously.

If someone wanted to bid, they simply pressed a button, and the bidding would be displayed on the clear glass.

Xu Qi sat next to Nan Yu, pouring her a cup of fine tea.

"Young Madam, all kinds of food are available here; you can order anything you might want to eat."

Nan Yu took a sip of the tea, full of fragrance and rich, mellow flavor, with a distinctive sweet aftertaste.

"This tea is from a 500-year-old tea tree, isn’t it?"

Xu Qi nodded delightedly, "Young Madam, very few people can taste it so accurately, you are the first to recognize it instantly!"

Nan Yu smiled slightly, but a trace of melancholy flickered in her eyes, "I had tasted it once unintentionally before."

That time, when she was apprenticing in medicine, her master happily took it out from the cupboard, saying she agreed to apprentice and couldn’t be treated lightly, he had to use the best tea.

That cup of tea was brewed with such ancient tea leaves.

After she finished her apprenticeship, the master also specifically brewed her a cup, saying that tea was his favorite.

Now, the taste of this cup closely resembled the one her master brewed for her back then.

The difference is, this cup was not as sweet as that one, nor as bitter.

Seeing Nan Yu had finished her tea, Xu Qi poured her another cup.

"Young Madam, why not try the food at the auction? It has been prepared by a master chef specially hired from abroad, the dishes are quite remarkable."

Nan Yu became curious, looking at the menu; the array of dishes was dazzling.

"Uncle Xu, it’s my first time here, you choose."

Hearing this, Xu Qi immediately said: "Young Madam, since it’s your first time, why not try everything."

He turned around and handed the menu to the waiter standing behind him, "Please bring one serving of each dish."

Seeing this, Nan Yu quickly said, "Uncle Xu, I can’t eat all this, it’s too wasteful."

Xu Qi gave her a reassuring smile, "No worries, if we can’t finish, we can take the leftovers home and enjoy them later."

Sitting behind them, Qi Ming put down his camera and said to Nan Yu, "Young Madam, no need to worry, the portions here are small, you will be able to finish them."

Nan Yu, outvoted by the two, could only hope that the dishes were indeed as Qi Ming described, with small portions.

"Young Madam, the auction is about to begin, see if there’s anything you like."

Xu Qi reminded her.

Nan Yu looked downwards and saw a beautiful woman in a golden cheongsam, walking elegantly onto the stage.

She approached the microphone on the auction stage and began to speak.

"Welcome ladies and gentlemen, to attend our annual grand auction."

"There are a total of thirty lots to be auctioned tonight, with an estimated duration of three hours. Here, I wish everyone a satisfying haul tonight and hope you all have a pleasant evening~"

"Now, let the auction officially begin!"
