His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 1401

Dormer's face darkened as he glared at his granddaughter, then forced a smile and said, "Master Huang, I'm sorry. The child is still young and immature. Please don't take it to heart. The Luo family has no opinions against Encyclo Hall."

"That's good to hear!" Olaric snorted, then swung his sleeves and turned to leave.

There was absolute silence on the Luo family's side. Everyone stared at each other with a heavy expression, and they didn't know what to say.

Especially Dormer. There was a grave expression on his face, and his hand which held the jade bottle trembled.

Barton and others quickly put in good words as soon as they noticed Dormer's reaction, attempting to comfort him.

"Dad, it doesn't really matter whether this medicine is Fade's or not. It doesn't affect us as long as the medicine is effective."

"Yes, it's just spending more money, isn't it? That amount of money is nothing to our family."

Not only did their words fail to cheer Dormer up, but they angered him even more. The muscles on his face twitched, and his lips curled into a snarl.

After all, the Longevity Pills were originally intended as a gift for the Luo family from Fade, and he could have gotten them for free. But now, he had spent over 200 million yuan for only a bottle.

A sense of remorse rose in his heart as he thought about how the tables had turned.

Barton seemed to have read Dormer's mind. He edged closer to his side and whispered in his ear, "Dad, there's no need to regret it. Compared to the money you spent, offending the Hsing family is the bigger problem."

Dormer's face relaxed a little at the mention of the Hsing family.

Fade had offended Romeo and the hidden family. The Luo family was smart enough to break off their ties with Fade, so they managed to escape the great misfortune that was about to come down upon Fade. With that in mind, the matter of the Longevity Pill was not so upsetting anymore.

The auction carried on. Countless expensive and precious items were auctioned one by one, arousing everyone's enthusiasm for the auction. The price of the items also increased as the crowd grew more excited.

Fade, too, had spent over 300 million yuan to buy a precious medicinal herb, which was worth it.

All the items were auctioned off one by one, and finally, the long-awaited moment had arrived.

Manager Liu stood up and announced, "The final item for the auction today is a single consultation session with Encyclo Hall."

"The reserve price of this item is fifty million yuan, and the minimum increment for each bid will be fifty million. The bidding starts now!"

Although the reserve price and the starting price were extremely high, everyone was already mentally prepared for it. Therefore, none of them felt surprised, and there were no objections. The crowd fell into a heated discussion immediately.

Many of them exchanged their views on the price and the item, but not many were involved in the bidding.

It was not like many people could afford the price anyway. Besides, they were less willing to pay such a high price for only a single session.

"Five hundred million yuan!"

"Five hundred and fifty million."

"Six hundred million yuan."

The price continued to rise. When the price hit 800 million, there were only two or three bidders left.

Looking at the current situation, Fade knew that it was his time to act. So, he raised his bid card and yelled, "Nine hundred million yuan."

Due to his unique identity as a VIP guest, his participation in the auction attracted plenty of attention. Everyone's eyes were on him, as were the few of his competitors.

One of the competitors hesitated for a moment before finally shaking his head and lowering the bid card in his hand.

Another competitor, a proprietor with a huge protruding belly, thought for a moment and raised his bid card. "One billion yuan."

Fade raised his card again without hesitation. "One billion one hundred million!"
