Not only did Zhang Zhilong have such a thought, but almost everyone in the entire auction room had the same thought.
That was, this young man in front of him had spent a huge sum of 20 million dollars to buy such an ordinary brooch, was he really not a madman?!
However, looking at such astonished and uncomprehending expressions of the crowd, Li Nan’s heart was laughing bitterly in helplessness.
Because the way these people looked at this matter, they had already put the cart before the horse!
The reason why Li Nan was willing to spend 20 million to buy this brooch was not because the value of the brooch itself was a bit high, nor was it because it had anything to do with the big star Lin Shiyun.
He was spending so much money purely just for charity!
That’s right, I’m afraid that these so-called upper cla*s elites, socialites, they had simply forgotten that the theme of this auction was charity when they were bidding on this brooch just now!
Before, when Li Nan was still a poor boy, he had thought that if he could win the jackpot and become rich overnight, he would be willing to donate a large sum of money to those poor people in the mountains.
And now that Li Nan has really become a rich man and the heir to a top-notch family, this thought has not changed.
So, taking this opportunity, Li Nan was ready to put his previous thoughts into action.
If you are poor, you can do good to yourself, but if you are rich, you can do good to the world!
With such an idea as a backing, how could someone like Zhang Zhilong possibly compete with Li Nan?
Not to mention the 20 million, even if it was 30 million, 40 million or 50 million, Li Nan would definitely go along with it today!
So, the moment Li Nan was sure that all the money would be donated, the victory was already sealed!
“Alright, are there any questions now?” Li Nan looked towards the host on stage with a bland expression.
“No …… no more ……” the hostess responded with great difficulty, “I now announce that this Ripe Fruit Brooch officially belongs to this Mr. Lai!”
With that, the hostess handed over the brocade box containing the brooch to Li Nan with both hands.
A thunderous round of applause and cheers immediately erupted from the scene.
Zhang Zhilong, on the other hand, was already furious to the extreme at this moment.
Without saying a word, he stomped away from Liao Yanan who was kneeling on the ground and directly got up to leave the stage.
Liao Yanan, who had been left behind, was completely bewildered at this moment.
She had been hiding under the table, her whole body was tense, and her ears were surrounded by the noise of the crowd, so she could not hear everything that was happening outside very clearly.
She only vaguely heard that it seemed that a brooch was being auctioned off outside just now, and that Long Shao had the intention to auction it off, but in the end, it was auctioned off by another person at a sky-high price of 20 million dollars, which was why Long Shao was so angry that he left the venue straight away.
Zhang Zhilong walked away easily, but Liao Yanan, who was left behind by him, was not so relaxed.
At this moment, she could neither come out nor not come out, she was simply in a terrible mess.
At this very moment, a big fat head suddenly came over.
It was none other than the one who had just picked up the phone, Mr. Liu.
“Young Long has all gone, if there is nothing else, why don’t you give me one too, don’t worry, I can pay for it, how about 20,000?”
Amidst the attention and applause of the crowd, Li Nan took the brocade box with the brooch.
On the side, Han Qin, who was looking at the man beside him at the moment, was also in an extremely complicated mood.
To be honest, after knowing yesterday that Li Nan was the man who had bought the entire gold street for several hundred million dollars, Han Qin was somewhat moved by this young and graceful man.
But now, after learning that Li Nan was able to live in Villa No. 1 on Jiulong Mountain, and that he had casually auctioned off a brooch for $20 million, Han Qin’s heartiness towards this man gradually turned into awe.
Han Qin is a smart woman, especially after having been in the upper cla*s circles for so long, Han Qin knows one thing very well, that is, rank is everywhere!
Previously, Han Qin thought that although Li Nan was quite rich, he should not be too far off from her own level, so she would have thoughts.
But now, Han Qin suddenly realised that this man in front of her, he seemed to be on a much higher level than she had imagined!
This difference in level was like a huge gulf, which made Han Qin treat the man in front of her with a kind of respect and distance.
“This, for.” Just as Han Qin was in a trance, Li Nan at the side suddenly handed over the brocade box in his hand.
“What? Give it to me?” Looking at the brocade box with the brooch in front of her, Han Qin’s entire body was shocked to the core.
One must know that the brooch in this brocade box was something worth twenty million dollars! But for Li Nan to casually give this item to herself, this made Han Qin simply unable to believe it.
“This …… is too valuable, Mr. Li, you’d better keep it for yourself.” Han Qin now felt that the gap between himself and the other party was even greater, so he didn’t dare to accept the other party’s gift easily.
“What, don’t you like it?” Li Nan was puzzled.
“No, it’s mainly because I’m too fond of accepting gifts from random people, so ……”
“Oh, I see, it’s me being abrupt.” Lai Nan didn’t think much about it, so he put the brocade box back again.
After the charity auction was over, this rooftop reception was almost declared over.
After saying goodbye to Han Qin, Li Nan left the venue before the reception ended.
After taking the lift downstairs, Li Nan was just about to walk out of the lobby when he bumped into a group of people.
This group of people was none other than Fang Qingtian and the others!
Originally, Fang Qingtian’s birthday party should have started a long time ago, but just now Chu Jun and Zhang Hu, a few boys, met with a traffic jam on the way here, and ended up being stuck on the road for more than half an hour before they arrived.
“Crap, Li Nan? What a coincidence!” Zhang Hu shouted in a loud voice. “I’ve heard that Li Nan is now so successful that he’s even qualified to attend Shangri-La’s rooftop reception!”
“That’s right, Shangri-La’s rooftop reception, those who go there are all high society, our brother Nan is now also considered a high society person!” Liu Pengpeng gave a thumbs up, but with a gloomy look.
Zhang Hu and Liu Pengpeng’s words, but caused Chu Jun Ji Meng Meng on the side of them are a burst of snickers.
In fact, just now Ji Meng Meng had already told Zhang Hu and Liu Peng Peng about Li Nan working as a waiter at the rooftop reception, and the reason why they said that now was only to troll Li Nan.
Li Nan didn’t understand how Zhang Hu and the others knew that he had attended the rooftop reception, so he didn’t even think about it and just said, “My friend invited me, so I went to attend, what’s the problem?”
Li Nan thought that since the other party knew about it, there was nothing wrong with telling the truth, but as soon as he said that, it caused Zhang Hu and the others to laugh.
Yang Xiaoli was also ashamed that she had such an ex-boyfriend, and felt that she had lost her face to Li Nan as well.
Fang Qingtian, who already had no good feelings towards Li Nan, felt that he was really useless when she heard him say this.
This Li Nan was not only poor, but he also wanted to save face! He was obviously going to work as a waiter at a C*cktail party, but he had to say that he was invited there, it was simply too disgusting!
If Chu Jun’s level was not enough, then this poor neighbour in front of him was completely lacking in any level!
A poor man from the lowest strata of society, and the kind that likes to put on a fat face!
“Hahahaha, Li Nan, it’s really going to kill me with laughter, hahaha ……”
“How dare you say you were invited there, how shameless! Hahaha ……”
Zhang Hu Liu Pengpeng and the others were all laughing their heads off.
Li Nan looked at Zhang Hu and the others who were laughing so hard in front of him that he couldn’t straighten up, but he was a little puzzled.
“What exactly do they mean?”
“Hmph, what else do you mean? I say that Li Nan is really a clown, given a pole, he really dares to climb up the pole!” Ji Mengmeng said with a cold snort.
“To tell you the truth, just now Liao Yannan has told us that she simply went to work as a waitress for others at the rooftop reception, and now she dares to say that she was invited there, her skin is really thick!”
