How Can My Wife Be So Adorable Chapter 160 – The Auction Begins

In the early morning, Zero was still nestled in Chen Xing’s embrace, having sweet dreams. With her cheeks rosy, she seemed to be dreaming something delightful.

Chen Xing had already awakened; the auction was about to begin! Success or failure hinged on this moment.

“Are you ready?”

【We’re ready, just ten more minutes!】

“Alright!”

Chen Xing had already opened the system panel and was silently staring at the network messaging module.

At this moment, it was 6:50 PM in the Spirit Continent.

Across the world, including countries like Hua Country, Mi Country, Ying Country, Hima Country, several superpowers were all synchronously opening their network panels.

Everyone wanted to witness who would end up with this groundbreaking product of the century.

This was also a showdown among the major global conglomerates. Due to some sort of disguised sense of rivalry, everyone was hoping that the capitalists of their respective countries could successfully obtain those anti-gravity devices. This was the first time they were so united in supporting capitalists from their own country.

San’er hadn’t explained how the auction would proceed; he had only mentioned that it would start at 7 PM. No one could predict in what form it would unfold.

Although it was described as a live broadcast, there wasn’t even an interface.

Before the auction even started, news was flooding the internet.

Soon, the main interface was filled with messages about the auction.

【Total Attention: 80%! With a global population of 10 billion, that’s equivalent to 8 billion people waiting!】

“I wonder how many Crystal Coins we can make!”

【I estimate at least 150 billion Crystal Coins! That could be exchanged for 15 billion Spirit Points!】

Chen Xing nodded in agreement, not saying anything, his mind continuously pondering.

Actually, he could have directly set it up for Spirit Points payment. However, the capitalists still held more Crystal Coins at hand. If they wanted Spirit Points, they would need to buy it.

The exchange rate between Crystal Coins and Spirit Points in the Spirit Continent wasn’t standardized. In Chen Xing’s case, 15 billion Spirit Points equaled 150 billion Crystal Coins. But in the Spirit Continent, it might not be the same; 15 billion Spirit Points might require more Crystal Coins.

That could potentially dampen the enthusiasm of those capitalists. Hence, for this auction, the payment method of choice was Crystal Coin payment.

As the two waited in anticipation, San’er suddenly received a message: “Brother San’er, can you not hold that auction? Please, I’ll show you a picture, okay?”

【Oh, really? Come on, let me see!】

“Then promise me first!”

【Sure, I promise you! But don’t lie to me. You know well what the consequences will be if you send a fake one.】

By now, the once dark room was illuminated.

Behind Yu Yu stood seven or eight people, all from high-level national institutions!

San’er’s auction had already garnered immense attention from Hua Country. The top leadership had given an order that if they couldn’t prevent it, they should try to make San’er one of their own.

This kind of technology absolutely couldn’t fall into another country’s hands. Whoever acquired it would be at the forefront of future technology for hundreds of years!

One of the leaders present spoke up, saying: “Send him a picture!”

Yu Yu had no choice; she was just a tool of the state after all!

She could only nod and open a folder, saying: “Take a look and decide which one I should send.”

At this moment, a woman with glasses and a neatly dressed uniform walked up to her. She was a psychologist specially assigned by the state!

Carefully examining the photos on the computer, she mumbled: “According to my analysis, this person speaks childishly, is narcissistic, arrogant, and unrestrained.”

“They’re probably young, likely without any romantic experience.”

“There’s also a suspicion of masochistic tendencies. They seem to enjoy vacillating between dominance and submission.”

“There’s a high probability they’d be drawn to a mature and dominant ‘queen-like’ woman.”

This analysis might not be entirely accurate, but it was uncannily close.

“Let’s go with this one.” She pointed at a photo on the screen.

It was a picture of Yu Yu from when she used to work earnestly at a government office, captured in a black uniform. In the photo, she held a cup of coffee, crossed her legs, and stared coldly at the computer in front of her.

The short uniform skirt paired with black thigh-high stockings and high heels. Her hair was simply tied back, and even with her glasses on, it didn’t diminish her attractiveness.

No doubt, this was the appearance San’er liked the most!

Yu Yu helplessly rolled her eyes. Even though everyone knew that San’er was probably just speaking casually and wouldn’t actually follow through, she still sent that photo over.

【Oh wow!!! What a surprise! You’re unrelenting! Hehehe…】

Suddenly, San’er burst into laughter, giving Chen Xing goosebumps. “What’s gotten into you?”

【Cough… it’s nothing.】

Chen Xing furrowed his brows. He really felt that San’er had been acting strangely these past few days!

He would definitely ask him about it after the auction ended. But there was no time now; only one minute remained until the start of the auction!

Yu Yu sent another message: “How about it, Brother San’er?”

San’er:【Cough… You look pretty good. Let’s have a meal together when I have time. I need to start the auction now. Goodbye.】

Yu Yu: =.=, Just as expected! Damn liar!

Although she had been tricked, the people behind Yu Yu had noticeably brighter expressions. It seemed that Yu Yu might actually succeed in luring this person out!

Before, the higher-ups had instructed Yu Yu to tell San’er that Hua Country was willing to offer a satisfactory price. They wanted to make a private deal with him and buy it for Hua Country, but San’er had refused. They thought this person would be hard to find, but unexpectedly, he was quite lustful…

【Ding~】

Everyone who was waiting for the auction, whether it was the Spirit Users, Spirit Masters or ordinary individuals in front of their computers, suddenly saw a countdown!

【30 seconds until the auction begins…】

【10 seconds…】

Curiosity was piqued for everyone.

Chen Xing’s eyes narrowed slightly as he watched the countdown in silence.

“Yiya~”

Suddenly, little Zero stretched halfway across Chen Xing’s body!

“Chen Xing~ Mmm…” Having just woken up, she tightly embraced him, greedily inhaling his scent.

“Mmm… I’ll sleep a little more…” Then she closed her eyes again, going back to her nap.

Chen Xing gently patted her back, a smile on his face. She was so darn adorable.

As Zero slipped back into slumber, the countdown finally reached Zero!

In front of people from all over the world who were waiting for the live broadcast, a prompt appeared.

【Welcome to the Global Auction, would you like to enter the live room?】

Everyone, whether they were part of the Spirit System or ordinary people sitting at their computers, chose to enter!

“Swoosh!”

The screen changed, and in front of everyone’s screens or system panels, an image of the auction hall appeared.

【Identity verification in progress! Those whose total assets meet the criteria will enter the auction hall, others will enter the spectator hall. Criteria for entry: 200 billion total assets!】

The reason it was set at 200 billion was because San’er had predicted that this car would sell for 150 billion. People without assets exceeding 200 billion wouldn’t risk their entire fortune for a gamble.

So, the threshold was directly set at 200 billion.

【Please wait one minute…】

“Identity verification!?”

“What!?”

“What’s this!?”

People from all over the world expressed confusion! A 200 billion threshold? How many conglomerates in the world could meet that requirement!?

Also!

What gave him the right to verify everyone’s assets!?

Yu Yu was utterly shocked. Could he really verify such private information for so many people in just one minute? This was simply outrageous!

Of course, San’er didn’t individually verify each person. He only checked the accounts of all the major conglomerates that had logged into the network. He kicked all the other people into the spectator area, denying them the bidding privilege to prevent them from causing trouble.

After a minute, all accounts with assets exceeding 200 billion were arranged in the auction hall.

The total number reached a staggering 500 accounts. This auction had attracted capital giants from all around the world!

Notably, there were 131 accounts from Hua Country.

The Mi Country had 120 accounts. The remaining countries were evenly distributed.

Several countries didn’t even have a single qualifying account.

There was a small nation to the east, Ying Country, with only one qualifying conglomerate. However, that conglomerate’s total assets ranked in the top five in the world.

The number of accounts in the spectator hall directly reached 8 billion!

Yu Yu was so shocked that she was speechless.

A live broadcast with 8 billion people online simultaneously, was that even possible?

Many accounts were initially anonymous, but San’er exposed them all.

This shocked the capital giants once again. Those who had thought of using pseudonyms to stealthily participate were now exposed with their assets and identities laid bare!

At the same time, San’er’s methods scared them into behaving, and they dared not mess around anymore.

【The auction is officially starting!】

【The sole product of this auction: the Lightwind Sports Car! Equipped with anti-gravity technology. Starting price: 50 billion! Each bid must increase by 1 billion!】
