After the young man's words fell, the whole venue grew slightly quiet, then whispers began to emerge.
Everyone thought the bidding for this item was already settled, but no one expected someone to suddenly increase the bid.
Even the beautiful woman paused ever so slightly, her hand gripping the gavel stopping for a moment, looking toward where the young man sat, surprise in her gaze.
Since it's an auction, raising the bid is the most normal thing; however, usually, if someone truly wants the item, they don't keep their paddle down until the gavel is about to fall—they don't suddenly raise their paddle at the last moment.
This way of bidding carried an unmistakable air of provocation.
Of course, the young man didn't bother to hide the provocation in his eyes.
Looking at Ya Ge beside him, people quickly caught on, a trace of amusement on their lips.
Is this a jealousy spat?
"Haha, isn't that kid Xu Tianyin's grandson?"
