Chapter 423: This is My Son

Looking at Xiang Yiran's nervous expression, Bao Yanzhen toyed with his lighter, leisurely watching the drama unfold.

The auction earnings tonight had already fulfilled his needs for money laundering. To avoid unnecessary complications, he had no intention of getting involved in Xiang Yiran's troubles.

Bao Yancheng adjusted his silver-rimmed glasses on his high nose bridge, resting one hand lazily on the auction podium, speaking at a measured pace.

"The first time I learned about this pink diamond was six years ago, in my wife's design notebook."

"She showed great interest in the cutting technique of this raw stone and the overall design of the ring setting. However, at that time, this pink diamond ring had not yet circulated in the auction market. After several twists and turns, I eventually found its whereabouts."

Wen Wanzi listened quietly, oddly calm inside.

The man on the stage showed little expression; she couldn't discern Bao Yancheng's thoughts.
