The price was pulled so high in a flash, and the surrounding people looked at each other in dismay.
Shang Lvxing glanced at Lu Xining beside him, unable to discern any discontent towards Ji Muye's actions from her expression.
Feeling the man's gaze next to her, she shifted her gaze from the item being auctioned above and turned to look at Shang Lvxing, indifferently asking, "What are you looking at me for?"
Previously, it was because Lu Xining wanted to bid on the exhibit herself as a stepping stone, that Shang Lvxing did not intervene.
However, Ji Muye had now joined the bidding.
As Lu Xining's companion for the evening, and having already lost the opportunity to share the first dance with her to him, Shang Lvxing did not want the object she desired to be used by him as a stepping stone for someone else.
"You're not angry?" He was genuinely curious.
Lu Xining tugged at the corner of her lips, "Why should I be angry? An auction is all about the highest bidder winning."
