Having dinner with Song Yaqing?
The guests in the banquet hall were all stunned when they heard the host suddenly announce the auction.
Then, when everyone came to their senses, the entire venue instantly erupted in chaos.
Although it's all donations, now I not only get a good reputation, but I can also dine with big stars alone.
And who knows, something interesting might even happen after the meal.
Everyone immediately became excited.
Soon, people started raising their hands to bid.
"I'll offer a million!"
Immediately afterwards, bids poured in.
"Two million!"
"I'll offer three million!"
......
Upon hearing the bids from the audience, Song Yaqing's face immediately darkened.
She turned off the microphone and turned directly to the host, saying, "When did I ever promise to have dinner with someone else?"
"Oh, Miss Song, it's just a meal, nothing serious. If we can raise more funds for charity, everyone will thank you."
Hearing the host's lukewarm explanation, Song Yaqing immediately became quite angry.
Although doing charity is a good thing, the other party did not consult me at all before suddenly launching an auction.
Moreover, she's just a female celebrity with no other special skills.
Song Yaqing knew perfectly well what those people were up to by spending millions, or even tens of millions, to invite her to dinner.
At this moment, someone in the audience has already offered five million.
Song Yaqing's face darkened. "I did not agree to any auction. Please stop it immediately!"
"Ms. Song, the guests invited tonight include successful entrepreneurs from all over the country, as well as leaders from Jiangcheng. The auction has already started. If we suddenly stop it, wouldn't everyone be embarrassed? You should think this through."
"Hmph! I don't care, I will absolutely not have dinner alone with anyone."
As if she hadn't heard the threat, Song Yaqing snorted and left the stage on time.
The host didn't seem to care as she watched her leave.
With so many important people here tonight, if Song Yaqing dares to refuse to cooperate after the auction, there will be plenty of people to deal with her.
"This guest has bid three million. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price?"
Inside the banquet hall.
"What's going on? Why is our idol suddenly having dinner with someone, and even holding an auction?"
The banquet hall was packed with people, and since Wang Tao was sitting a little far from the stage, she didn't see the expression on Song Yaqing's face.
However, Li Yi saw it all clearly.
He frowned and said, "I suspect this auction was put together on short notice, and Sister Song was unaware of it beforehand, and she was also somewhat averse to it."
"What? You mean someone forced my idol to have dinner with other people?"
Li Yi nodded silently.
"What should we do then?" Wang Tao exclaimed anxiously upon hearing this. "These men who pay to film the opportunity to have dinner alone with their idols definitely have ulterior motives."
As a woman, Wang Tao naturally knew what these men who participated in the auction were thinking.
Li Yi also understood the reasoning behind it.
However, the on-site offer had already reached eight million.
Moreover, it looks like it's going to continue rising.
He could only offer words of comfort: "It's alright, maybe the organizers just created a gimmick. Sister Song can just have a small treat later, Sister Wang, don't worry too much."
Upon hearing this, Wang Tao was about to speak when a voice suddenly rang out from the side.
"I'll offer ten million!"
Wang Tao looked over at the sound and saw a short, fat, middle-aged man with a fleshy face suddenly stand up and raise the price by two million.
Moreover, after raising the bid, the other party chuckled and said to his companion with a lewd look, "That woman Song Yaqing is really hot. I'm definitely going to win this auction today!"
Upon hearing this, his companion immediately wore a knowing look, "Old Zhao, you're quite generous. But isn't ten million for a female celebrity, and only for one night? Aren't you a bit too expensive?"
As a private business owner, Zhao Hongde has amassed a fortune of over a billion yuan in just over a decade, so he is certainly not a fool.
On the surface, spending ten million to book a big star for one night does seem a bit expensive.
But tonight's banquet is a charity auction.
No matter how much money I spend, I can deduct it from the company's taxes, and I can also leave a good impression on the city leaders.
As for the female celebrities, they're just freebies thrown in.
Therefore, you can't lose out in this deal no matter what.
"Heh, a mere ten million is nothing. I just love top-quality young women like Song Yaqing. No matter the cost, I'm going to get her tonight!"
As Zhao Hongde was smugly calculating, a sharp voice suddenly rang in his ears.
"Pah! Scumbag!"
Zhao Hongde turned his head and saw a beautiful young woman at the next table, whose figure and face were no less than Song Yaqing's, staring at him angrily, her eyes looking as if she wanted to devour him.
He frowned. "Miss, this is a public auction. I'm offering my price. What gives you the right to insult me?"
Wang Tao heard everything Zhao Hongde said clearly and naturally knew what his intentions were in participating in the auction.
"So what if I curse you? You're scum, full of filth, you not only deserve to be cursed, you deserve to be beaten!"
Although the young woman in front of him was also very beautiful, Zhao Hongde could not tolerate her pointing her finger at him and cursing him in front of so many people.
"Damn it! Don't think I won't hit you just because you're a woman!"
As he spoke, he raised his right hand, ready to give Wang Tao a good whack.
However, before his slap could land, an arm suddenly stretched out from the side.
With a snap!
A crisp slap rang out.
Zhao Hongde only felt a blur before his eyes, and before he could react, he felt a tremendous force strike him.
Immediately afterwards, the short and fat man spun around in place several times like a top.
"Hiss~"
The sharp pain in his face quickly brought Zhao Hongde back to his senses.
When he saw that the person who had just attacked him was just a young man, he was furious.
"You brat, how dare you hit me?"
"Sister Wang is right, you really deserve a beating!"
Li Yi saw it clearly just now; this short, fat guy in front of him actually tried to attack Wang Tao. How could he possibly stand it?
"You brat, you're dead meat today!"
Zhao Hongde touched his swollen cheek, then immediately swung his short, thick arm and unleashed a series of wild punches at Li Yi.
Li Yi stood still, waiting for the other person to rush up to him before he raised his foot and gently kicked him.
The next moment, Zhao Hongde, who weighed over 100 pounds, was sent flying backward.
He slammed his entire body onto the table, making a clanging sound.
"What happened?"
"Someone dares to cause trouble here!"
The commotion immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Among them, a middle-aged man in his fifties was sitting not far away.
Upon noticing the commotion in the corner of the room, the other party immediately got up and walked over.
"What's going on with you all? How dare you cause trouble at the banquet?"
Zhao Hongde struggled to his feet, ready to settle scores with Li Yi.
Upon seeing the newcomer, he immediately exclaimed, "District Chief Zhang, you've come at the right time! This brat deliberately committed violence and injured people; have him arrested immediately!"
