Chapter 35: One White Diamond, the Highest Bidder Wins
Zhu Lan's face turned pale instantly, and a look of humiliation flashed in his eyes.

She said aggrievedly, "Third sister-in-law, I called Xiaozhi here with good intentions, but you suspected that I deliberately prevented her from selling the red diamond. Am I so clumsy in your eyes?"

Mo Jingjing sneered, "Zhu Lan, I'm just stating a few facts, why are you so angry? If you didn't mean it, then you should ask Wen Zhi to sell the red diamond to us!"

Zhu Lan's eyes turned red. "Xiao Zhi originally only had white diamonds. I begged for this red diamond after a long time. Where can she find such a pure red diamond for you?"

Seeing that several people were about to quarrel, Wen Zhi quickly spoke in a low voice.

"Aunties, please stop arguing. I really don't have any extra red diamonds. I only have one white diamond."

Everyone was stunned and turned to look at Wen Zhi in shock.

Fang Yunli moved closer to Wen Zhi and asked again and again to confirm: "Xiao Zhi, do you really only have one white diamond?!"

The others' eyes also fell on Wen Zhi, waiting for her answer.

Wen Zhi took out a black bag from her pocket, then took out a one-carat white diamond and placed it on the coffee table in front of her.

"There is no such thing as Aunt Lan paying me to act. It's all because my diamonds are so good that people either pre-ordered them long ago or sold them out in seconds as soon as I took them out."

"If it weren't for Aunt Lan watching me grow up, my relationship with her wasn't good, and you guys are Aunt Lan's relatives, I wouldn't be willing to give this white diamond to you."

She raised her eyelids slightly, "You don't have to think about the red diamond anymore. Think about this white diamond first. After all, the customers who want it are lining up from City A to overseas."

Zhu Lan was stunned when he heard this.

It's only been two days since we last saw each other, and Xiaozhi's diamond business is so booming?

When they were in the milk tea shop two days ago, didn’t Xiaozhi tell her in person that she wanted her help in introducing customers?

Shangguan Min looked at Wen Zhi, who looked relaxed and comfortable, and didn't seem to be lying. Then he looked at the sparkling white diamond on the table.

This white diamond is of top quality in terms of both appearance and quality.

Even someone who doesn’t know much about diamonds can tell that this white diamond is extraordinary.

If someone who knows the business sees this, it’s impossible not to spend money like crazy.

So she felt that what Wen Zhi said should be true.

"Xiaozhi, of course we want this white diamond. Please name your price."

Fang Yunli has always followed the lead of her elder sister-in-law and trusted Shangguan Min very much. When she heard what she said, she understood that her elder sister-in-law was sure that Wen Zhi was not lying.

She also put aside her inner doubts and looked at Wen Zhi beside her with a smile.

"Xiao Zhi, how much did you sell it to Zhu Lan for? The price should be about the same, right?"

She doesn't want to spend more money than Zhu Lan!
Wen Zhi glanced at Fang Yunli, her lips curled up slightly, "Second Aunt, the price of each customer needs to be kept confidential. After all, each of my white diamonds is unique, so the price is naturally different."

When Fang Yunli saw that she couldn't get Zhu Lan's price, a trace of annoyance flashed across her face.

Mo Jingjing poked her head out from the side, glanced at the diamond, then turned to look at Wen Zhi.

"You only have one white diamond, but there are three of us. Wouldn't it be enough to share even if we buy it?"

Wen Zhi said as a matter of course: "So this white diamond will go to the one with the highest bid."

"Whoever wants it can make an offer." Mo Jingjing said, "But all three of us want it!"

Hearing this, Zhu Lan couldn't help but say, "Third sister-in-law, there is actually a way. The three of you buy it together and then make it into a diamond ring. In order, the eldest sister-in-law wears it today, the second sister-in-law wears it tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow it will be your turn, the third sister-in-law."

Mo Jingjing's face darkened instantly, "Zhu Lan, shut up! We are buying diamonds, it's none of your business!"

The smile on Zhu Lan's face disappeared instantly, the corners of his lips trembled slightly, he wanted to say something but didn't dare to.

Seeing this, Mo Jingjing sneered in disdain: "Zhu Lan, put yourself in your proper place. This is the Zhu family, not the Fu family. If you continue to offend your superiors, I will ask the old lady to come out and punish you according to the family rules."

When Zhu Lan heard the word "old lady", she bit her trembling lower lip instantly. Her pupils were filled with fear and frustration, and she dared not speak again.

Wen Zhi noticed this scene, reached out and pressed her hand on the back of Zhu Lan's hand soothingly, then looked at Mo Jingjing.

"Third Aunt, Aunt Lan is just making a kind suggestion. You don't have to be so angry."

"Besides, we are no longer in a feudal society. Stop using those old-fashioned family rules to intimidate others. I believe the old lady is very righteous and is not someone who would punish a younger generation for a trivial matter."

She smiled softly, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

"Let's talk about this white diamond first. No matter which of you aunties wants it or how you want to buy it, from me, as long as the price is right, the highest bidder will win. You can bid whatever you want."

If they offered too low a price, she said it wasn't right.

If they raise the price crazily, then she will help Aunt Lan, make them bleed heavily, and then she will make a fortune!
Zhu Lan has been in the Zhu family for so many years, but this is the first time she has seen someone stand up to defend her.

In the past, she thought her brothers would stand up to protect her, but every time they just watched indifferently, and sometimes they even teamed up to humiliate her and used her as a punching bag.

Later she got married, thinking that her husband could help her hold her head up in the Zhu family and protect her, but her husband was entirely focused on the company and never cared about her.

After having a child, she thought the child would always stand by her side, but her child was sent to be raised by her mother-in-law by her husband since he was young. She could only see the child for a few days every month, and the child was not close to her at all.

Zhu Lan originally thought that no one in the Zhu family would stand up to protect her in this life.

But now Wen Zhi has stood up.

Xiaozhi and she are not relatives. To Xiaozhi, she is just a former neighbor who had bought diamonds from her several times.

But Xiaozhi protected her in the Zhu family.

Zhu Lan looked at Wen Zhi with tears in her eyes, and suddenly she felt infinite courage in her heart.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, if you want it, please bid for it. If not, I will buy this diamond."

"Xiaozhi's diamonds are so rare that even Mr. Lu from the diamond industry is waiting in line for them!"

Fang Yunli took a deep breath, "Are you talking about Mr. Lu, the famous Lu Chengshan? Even he is lining up for this diamond?"

Zhu Lan nodded directly, "Yes, Mr. Lu is full of praise for this diamond and asks Xiao Zhi to sell one to him every day!"

At the moment, she just wanted to help Wen Zhi sell at a high price. She was talking nonsense and didn't know that Lu Chengshan, the only person she had heard of, was really looking for Wen Zhi outside.

Seeing that Zhu Lan was cooperating with her, Wen Zhi also spoke at the right time: "If it weren't for Aunt Lan's face, I would never sell this white diamond to you, so do you want it or not?"

So how much should this diamond be worth? How much do you want Wen Zhi to earn?
