Chapter 1402
The exchange between Fade and Faxon had startled everyone else in the hall. Soon enough, they
began talking about it.
"Young Master Chiang also wants the consultation opportunity."
"From the looks of it, it seems like Fade is not going to give in as well!"
"How dare hepete with Young Master Chiang? Is he a fool?"
"That''s right. Does he think he can beat Young Master Chiang in terms of background and
strength?"
Amid the crowd''s chatter, the Luo family members who were initially upset became thrilled at the
sight of the confrontation between the two men. Smug grins painted across their faces as they
gloated over Fade''s unfortunate encounter.
"Is Fade out of his mind? How dare he confront Young Master Chiang?"
"If he had stood down just now, Young Master Chiang might''ve appreciated his understanding. But
now, he has offended Young Master Chiang bypeting with him for the bidding!" "He will ruin
himself sooner orter with that kind of temper."
"He''s a dead man walking now. Let''s just sit back and watch the show."
Faxon did not seem to expect that Fade would challenge him. He stared at Fade for a few seconds,
then said in a low voice, "Two billion yuan. I bid two billion yuan."
His offer caused another uproar among the crowd.
Faxon directly increased the bid by 400 million yuan this time, setting the price at two billion yuan,
which was twice as much as the previous price of 1 billion yuan.
In other words, this meant that Faxon was determined to win the bid, and it served as a warning to
Fade.
Fade furrowed his brows when he heard the bid. Two billion yuan was indeed beyond his
expectations. However, this consultation session was an opportunity to help Joey find her parents,
so he must bid for it.
Besides, he was not short of money. Not only did he just earn over one billion yuan from the pills,
but he has also generated a huge ie from his business throughout the recent years. Besides,
there was also the money from the powerful families who were under his control. His worth
would be tens of billions. To spend several billion yuan to bid for the consultation opportunity was
not a big deal to him.
Therefore, instead of backing down from Faxon''s threat, he offered, "Two billion five hundred
million."
The audience gasped in amazement as soon as he uttered the price. He had gone so far as to raise
the bid by 500 million yuan, which was even higher than Faxon''s increase. Everyone was surprised
by his madness and determination.
"Is Fade really that rich?"
"The audacity! I wonder what his background is like."
"That was not a wise thing to do. It''s not about money at all. It''s about Young Master Chiang''s
reputation!"
"He''s offending Young Master Chiang and upsetting him even more. Is he trying to get himself
killed?"
Faxon''s face scrunched in frustration as he red at Fade before shouting, "Two billion seven
hundred million."
Fade blurted immediately, "Three billion."
"You —" Even Faxon felt the price was ridiculous this time. He red at Fade, gritted his teeth, and
seethed, "Do you know what you are doing? I already told you that I am determined to win this bid."
Fade nced at him and snorted with disdain, "Determined to win? Then pay for it. If you don''t have
the money, then don''t y the game."
Faxon''s face darkened upon the remark, and he clenched his teeth hard. He scowled at Fade and
said, "I bid three and a half billion yuan."
As soon as Faxon finished announcing the price, Fade cut in, "Four billion."
"You —" Faxon felt the pressure as he couldn''t afford to catch up with the price anymore. He bared
his teeth at Fade as if he wanted to swallow him alive.
Fade crossed his arms casually and sneered, "What about me? This is an auction. If you want to
win the item, you have to pay for it."
"You—" Faxon''s face was ming red, and his eyes bulged in anger. He clenched his fists so tightly
that his fingers dug into the flesh of his palms. He was barely restraining himself from beating Fade
up.
"What now? Now that you don''t have the money, you want to beat me up? Speaking of a beating,
I''m fine with that, so let''s get on with it."
Fade threw a few punches in the air and stared at Faxon with a rxed expression.
Fade''s actions were a mockery to Faxon, which angered Faxon so much that he almost burned up.
Suddenly, his vital energy burst out from him with a whoosh. His violent energy surged towards
Fade and enveloped him.
The fight between them was on the verge of breaking out.
Just then, Manager Liu hollered, "Young Master Chiang, this is Encyclo Hall, and we have rules
here. Please remember that."
What he said was actually a warning to Faxon. Although Faxon came from a powerful background,
Encyclo Hall was nevertheless superior to him, and they would never condone his reckless attitude.
Therefore, Manager Liu was obligated to remind him of that.
Faxon shifted his gaze to Manager Liu in response and held back his anger. ring at Fade, he
jabbed a finger at him and muttered, "Very well. Fade, right? I''ll remember you."

Then, he flung his sleeves and walked out of the auction house.
Fade pursed his lips, unconcerned. He did not take Faxon''s threat seriously.
The auction resumed normally. Manager Liu shot an apologetic look at Fade. "Mr. Chen, ording
to the rules, you just bid four billion yuan, so now"
Even Manager Liu himself felt the price was incredible. Although the opportunity to consult in
Encyclo Hall was very precious, four billion yuan was too much. The cost was totally beyond the
normal range.
Fade didn''t care much about the money. He waved his hand and said, "Manager Liu, don''t sweat it.
Since I have already bid the item for four billion yuan, let''s carry on ording to this price."
"I - Mr. Chen, I''m terribly sorry that such a thing happened. I did not expect it at all, so-" Manager Liu
was apologetic, but Fade didn''t think it was a big deal.
The crowd once again fell into a heated discussion.
"Fade is so amazing, he scared Young Master Chiang away by winning the bid."
"You call that amazing? I think he doesn''t even know the disaster that awaits him!"
"That''s right. Young Master Chianges from a powerful family. Fade has pushed him to the wall
by not only embarrassing him so badly but also robbing him of the opportunity to consult Encyclo
Hall. He will suffer the consequences soon."
"The young man is too frivolous. He forgets himself just because he has some money. He doesn''t
know that money does not mean everything in this world."
At this moment, the Luo family pretended toment Fade''s unfortunate encounter with smug grins
on their faces.
"He dares to offend Young Master Chiang. He''s a dead man now."
"Of course. Young Master Chiang is not a man to be trifled with. Plus, with his previous grudge with
the Hsing family, he''s done for."
"He''s so full of himself. He''s asking for it!"
"What''s more, in the end, he spent four billion yuan on an item which is only worth one billion yuan.
What a fool!"
