Chapter 470 - 470. Meticulous Observation
It was time for the auction to start. The lights inside the venue slowly dimmed, and the ceiling lights on the stage lit up. The host stood behind the podium, and the lights focused on him.
He looked at the guests below the stage, and a passionate and unrestrained smile broke out of his mouth. “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!”
Upon hearing the voice from the stage, MO Qian returned to his senses and said, “Alright, stop joking. The auction is starting.”
Xiang Nan succumbed to the MO siblings’ abuse of power and naturally didn’t dare to say anything more. He took a sip of water from his teacup and shrank into his chair, quietly pulling the chair closer to MO Qian.
Zhuang Bai retracted his gaze and looked at the host on the stage.
Zhuang Hang glanced at MO Qian, then at his elder brother. He thought of somethinz and also fell silent.
Under the dim light, MO Qian sized up Zhuang Bai without a sound.
He didn’t expect Zhuang Bai to be so discreet. He hadn’t even used his strength, and the two had already ‘Hooked up’ so naturally.
As he thought of something, the corners of MO Qian’s lips slowly curled up. He began to feel that perhaps Zhuang Xian’s wish to help matchmake Zhuang Bai and MO Ye was useless!
Why would these two people, who had liked each other, need someone else’s matchmaking? They had better deal with their matters first.
After the emcee on the stage finished his opening speech, he let out a sigh of relief and said in a clear voice, “The money earned from this auction will be used to fund the latest project of the ‘Savage’ volunteer medical event! This is a large-scale National Volunteer medical event, and we need the kind help of all the ladies and gentlemen present! On behalf of the Saviour Research Institute and the West Sea Manor, I would like to express our sincere gratitude to all of you! Thank you for coming, everyone.”
As the host spoke, he walked out from behind the microphone and bowed deeply to the audience.
Three seconds later, after straightening his back, he did not immediately return to the microphone. Instead, he looked at the private room on the second floor and bowed again.
Seeing the host’s action, Xiang Nan also sat up slightly.
He turned his head to look at MO Qian and said softly, “I see that this host is quite thoughtful and sincere. He should be one of us at the Research Institute, right? This shouldn’t be the case. If doctor Zheng could organize such a large auction, why wouldn’t he be able to hire a professional host? Isn’t this too strange?”
Upon hearing this, MO Qian nodded his head lightly. “The host is indeed from the Research Institute, but this has nothing to do with whether we can afford to hire him.
This time, they’ve made such a big event and the auction so well prepared. It’s naturally not because they can’t afford to hire a professional sponsor.” At the end of MO Qian’s sentence, Zhuang Hang looked at the host on the platform and said, “I’m guessing that they’re doing this out of consideration for the safety of the auction items! It looks like Savior Research Institute is going all out this time.”
Xiang Nan looked at Zhuang Hang and asked, “It’s just a host; how much risk would it take? I’ve seen so many auctions but never seen such a cautious organizer. So, what kind of different item has Doctor Zheng prepared for the auction this time?
Zhuang Hang looked back at Xiang Nan and said, “Haven’t you noticed anything different on the way in from the external field?”
A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he spoke. “Although this auction is for charity and doesn’t look like it’s of the highest standard, other than the necessary security personnel, the other service staff are also wearing the badge of the Research Institute. They are all our people!”
“You mean, although this charity auction is very low-key, the items up for auction this time are not ordinary. That’s why Zheng Kai is so careful and well-equipped?” Although Xiang Nan’s words were a question, he already had the answer.
With that said, he was interested in this auction!
