Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

The applause ceased.

The auctioneer said, "This Qianlong white jade thumb ring should be the most expensive item in this auction. I believe everyone knows that the person in whose name the item is auctioned for the highest price will become the Charity Star of the Night. If nothing unexpected happens, Ms. Shen Yuyan will be awarded the title of Charity Star of the Night!"

Everyone cast envious glances at Shen Yuyan.

At the beginning, the auctioneer had mentioned Shen Yuyan's name.

Quite a few people knew of Shen Yuyan.

Through word of mouth, the crowd had also come to recognize which one she was.

Li Guangming spoke up at just the right moment, "Yu Yan, this is the gift I present to you. Do you like it?"

He just wanted to satisfy Shen Yuyan's vanity in order to move her.

Don't think that daughters of the wealthy like Shen Yuyan are without vanity.

It can be said that everyone has vanity, it's just more or less, hidden or apparent that's all.

And people's vanity differs from person to person.

A laborer with a monthly salary of a few thousand, driving home in a basic BMW and receiving compliments from others, would greatly satisfy his vanity.

A corporate elite with an annual salary of a million, when praised for his high wage, extensive connections, and ability to rub shoulders with many wealthy individuals, capable of handling any situation, would also satisfy his vanity.

A minor rich man, being able to dine with super-wealthy individuals like those from Wan Da Group, even to the point of being called brothers, inspiring awe in others, would satisfy his vanity as well.

For a wealthy heiress like Shen Yuyan, who lacks nothing monetarily, having a young man of high status and talent willing to spend liberally in front of so many rich people just for her would also satisfy her vanity.

After all, not every daughter of the wealthy receives such treatment.

There were many other daughters of the wealthy and girls from noble families present who did not receive this treatment, only she did.

To be honest, many of these heiresses, along with female celebrities, were green with envy towards her.

Spending so much money on her was a minor matter.

The key issue was that Li Guangming's status was extraordinary.

He was the heir to the Li Family, a top-tier family in the capital.

The wealth controlled by the Li Family exceeded a trillion.

Moreover, the network of relationships held by a prominent family like the Li Family was quite fearsome.

Being pursued by an heir of the Li Family was enough to drive anyone to envy.

Especially those female celebrities who dreamed of marrying into a wealthy family to ascend the social ladder.

If the heir of the Li Family were pursuing them, they would probably be over the moon by now.

Unfortunately for Shen Yuyan, she was only slightly surprised. Her vanity might have been satisfied a bit, but as for being moved, it was far from enough.

What's more, she had always seen Li Guangming as hypocritical, and once that idea took hold, it was hard to change.

Therefore, all that Li Guangming had done was futile.

"It's alright, not particularly to my liking," Shen Yuyan's tone was still cold, "But I still want to thank you for your contribution to charity."

Li Guangming's face stiffened.

Previously, he had thought that Shen Yuyan would at least be touched somewhat.

Now it seemed he had thought too much.

He knew that his grand gesture had utterly failed.

Pfft!

Wang Xiaocong burst into laughter, "Li Family's young master, that 'thank you' from Miss Shen is worth two hundred and ten million, huh!"

Li Guangming glared fiercely at Wang Xiaocong, "Regardless, I've put up an item, which is equivalent to donating two hundred and ten million, what have you donated? You haven't donated a single cent, what gives you the right to throw shade at me!"

Wang Xiaocong shrugged, "Like I've said, there's no need for me to donate here."

Li Guangming scoffed, "If you don't want to donate, just say you don't want to donate, if you lack compassion, simply admit it, don't make excuses for yourself. If you've got the guts, donate something for the auction. To be honest, as the heir to Wan Da Group, attending this kind of event without donating anything, not even a cent, I truly feel embarrassed for you!"

Wang Xiaocong, with his face red and ears steaming, was rendered unable to refute.

He truly hadn't put up anything for auction.

No matter the argument, he couldn't outdo Li Guangming.

Seeing him defeated, Li Guangming continued, "If you have the ability, donate something for auction. I'm not asking for it to be more expensive than mine, just one percent of that would do. If you aren't prepared, you can donate that Patek Philippe watch you're wearing.

If I'm not mistaken, that's Patek Philippe's latest limited edition starry sky model, priced at three million eight hundred thousand. Do you dare to donate it?"

Having donated such a valuable item and still not being able to move Shen Yuyan upset him greatly.

Wang Xiaocong happened to jump out, so he relentlessly squeezed Wang Xiaocong.

He had bled, and if he could make Wang Xiaocong bleed a little too, it would balance out his feelings.

Then, he turned his spearhead towards Xu Yang, "And you, Xu Yang, you've become a billionaire within a single year, it's your first time attending the Night of Splendor, you should also donate something for auction, to contribute to society!"

Xu Yang was somewhat speechless, "Why are you acting like a dog, biting whoever you encounter? What have I done to you?"

Li Guangming hummed coldly, "You have angered me, and I haven't even settled my accounts with you!"

Xu Yang frowned, "Li Guangming, you have the nerve to try to take my Bottom of the River project, and you dare to say that I have offended you, and talk about settling scores with me, where do you get the face!"

Li Guangming wanted to say more, but Wang Xiaocong, who was struck by a thought, interrupted, "Li Guangming, you said we don't have anything to bring to the auction, I will join Xu Yang in donating an item for auction, and I guarantee that it will be more expensive than yours!"

Xu Yang looked at Wang Xiaocong puzzled, not sure what Wang Xiaocong meant. Continue reading stories on My Virtual Library Empire

Wang Xiaocong smiled, "Just listen to me."

Xu Yang didn't think too much and nodded, "Okay."

Upon hearing this, Li Guangming laughed, "More expensive than my item, I really want to know where you get such courage. It's not easy to find something worth two hundred and ten million. If you aren't prepared, where will you find such expensive stuff now? It's too late even if you send it by helicopter."

Wang Xiaocong smiled slightly, "You'll soon find out if I can get it or not."

After speaking, he whispered a few words to his internet-celebrity girlfriend.

His internet-celebrity girlfriend looked puzzled, but still nodded her head and left.

Then, he whispered a few words into Xu Yang's ear.

Xu Yang looked puzzled too, but still nodded, "No problem, play it however you want. Since he's acting like a rabid dog, a lesson wouldn't hurt."

Wang Xiaocong chuckled, "Let's make him bleed a lot this time."

It wasn't long before his internet-celebrity girlfriend returned with a USB drive.

Li Guangming sneered, "I'm telling you, Wang Xiaocong, you're not saying that this is the item you and Xu Yang are donating for the auction, are you? Hahaha, that really makes me laugh. Does that USB drive even worth a hundred bucks?"

Wang Xiaocong sneered, "That's right, the USB drive is what I plan to donate for the auction. As for the final price it gets, as I've already said, it will definitely exceed that of your donated Qianlong Emperor's white jade thumb ring!"

Shen Wanpeng showed a contemplative expression on his face.

Zhao Yuxin, Shen Yuyan, and Wang Xiaocong's internet-celebrity girlfriend were clueless about what Xu Yang and Wang Xiaocong were up to.

How could a USB drive fetch a final price that exceeds the value of the white jade thumb ring donated by Li Guangming?
