Chapter 1275 — Wei Zhao Bids - "Wow--" The Entire Audience Erupted, Eyes Wide as They Stared in Astonishment at Gu Mengyao on Stage! None of Them Expected the Final Lot to Be So Sensational and Novel! She Was the School's Princess, the Campus Belle, the Idol of So Many Boys!

Most of the students knew, however, that this kiss was beyond their reach. A starting price of ten thousand alone was enough to make them shrink back, and that was only the opening bid. Who could tell to what terrifying figure the price might climb in a moment?

Gu Pengzhan, as a director of the school, had naturally attended this fundraiser. When he heard Shen Yushu was going to auction off Gu Mengyao's kiss, he froze. What on earth was going on? Judging by his daughter's expression, she seemed to know nothing about it. Was this another mischievous stunt cooked up by little Shu?

Gu Pengzhan felt a headache coming on. If Wei Zhao won this kiss, his daughter might not say anything, but if it fell into anyone else's hands, it would be a disaster! The sight before him made his head throb.

If Wei Zhao refused to act, then he himself would have no choice but to bid! A daughter kissing her father was only natural and right, nothing to make a fuss about.

Ding Binggong and Wang Zhifeng exchanged a glance. This was a high school campus, and auctioning a kiss did seem a bit over the line, but this was after all a public charity event, and it was awkward for them to step forward and stop it. Besides, the girl in question was Gu Pengzhan's own daughter. If even Gu Pengzhan did not come out to stop it, what could his two subordinates say?

Sitting below the stage, An Jianwen's eyes lit up! He had not come here for charity. He had only one purpose, and that was to see Gu Mengyao! Hearing that Gu Mengyao would be the host, he had brought Su Taizao to First Middle School and found seats among the audience.

He had felt no interest in the earlier lots. As the eldest young master of the An family, the backing clan of the Fire Wolf Gang, his household held no shortage of collectibles, many of them smuggled in and all the more precious for it, so ordinary things could hardly catch An Jianwen's eye.

But this final lot made An Jianwen's eyes shine!

"Brother An, Gu Mengyao's kiss! Isn't that exactly what you want? I think this is your big chance!" Su Taizao said gleefully from the side when he heard it.

"But Gu Mengyao has been rather cold toward me lately. If I win this kiss, won't she be upset?" When the moment came, An Jianwen hesitated instead.

"How could that be? Since Gu Mengyao has put her own kiss up for auction, she has to accept whoever buys it!" Su Taizao said. "If she were not mentally prepared, why would she auction it in public? And look around this whole hall. You are the only one with both the means and the willingness to spend big to win this kiss, Brother An! Other people do not care for her that way. Spending so much money for a kiss would never seem worth it to them, but you are different, Brother An!"

"That makes sense!" An Jianwen nodded, deeply convinced. "So you mean this was prepared for me? Not for that Wei Zhao?"

"How could it be? If she really wanted Wei Zhao to kiss her, they could kiss at home all they like. Why put it up for auction and ask for trouble!" Su Taizao reasoned.

"You are right! Then I will bid!" An Jianwen nodded, his whole body brimming with fighting spirit.

"This is Sister Yaoyao's first kiss!" Shen Yushu added fuel to the fire. "Any bids? Ten thousand is such a bargain!"

"How much should I bid?" An Jianwen glanced at Su Taizao and asked in a low voice. The price was tricky to call. Bid too little, and it would look as if he scorned Gu Mengyao. Bid too much, and he would feel like a sucker. An Jianwen was torn.

"Bid fifty thousand? Not too much, not too little? At that price, no one should fight you for it!" Su Taizao said after a moment's hesitation.

"Deal!" An Jianwen raised his hand and called out: "I bid fifty thousand!"

Gu Mengyao frowned. She had not expected An Jianwen to jump in, and it left her gloomy. Little Shu really was too much. What if An Jianwen actually won her kiss?

But standing on the stage, Gu Mengyao could not lose her temper. As Gu Pengzhan's daughter and the host of the fundraiser, what would people think if she turned hostile on the spot? It was Tang Yun who had read out this lot. It would look as if she were displeased with Tang Yun, and with Shen Yushu egging things on, would she fall out with her good sisters too?

Even if she explained that she had known nothing beforehand about this kiss-auction segment, who would believe her?

"Someone has bid fifty thousand. Any other bids?" Shen Yushu had never imagined Sister Yaoyao's kiss could fetch fifty thousand. It really was valuable!

"Sixty thousand." Although Wei Zhao had no idea what trick Shen Yushu was playing, it was clear the eldest miss was unwilling to give her kiss to An Jianwen, so as her close bodyguard, follower, and live-in friend, he had no choice but to step in!

"Sixty thousand, someone has bid sixty thousand. Any higher price? What about that brave gentleman from before?" Shen Yushu turned her gaze toward An Jianwen.

Seeing Shen Yushu look his way and hearing her praise him as a brave gentleman, An Jianwen instantly swelled with self-satisfaction, thinking Shen Yushu was hinting to him that this kiss auction had been tailor-made for him! He grew even more excited!

Otherwise, why would Shen Yushu call him a brave gentleman? Everyone knew Gu Mengyao liked courageous men best! Could Shen Yushu herself favor his union with Gu Mengyao? At this thought, An Jianwen filled with fighting spirit, stood straight up, and shouted his bid: "A hundred thousand! I bid a hundred thousand!"

"Wow--" The whole hall erupted once more. A single kiss worth a hundred thousand, was that not utterly shocking? Yet in fact, a hundred thousand might not even be the final price!

The boys who had been daydreaming all gave up. Much as they adored Gu Mengyao, a hundred thousand for a kiss set the bar far too high!

"Two hundred thousand." Wei Zhao raised his hand and said calmly. He did not know whether the eldest miss would feel awkward if he won this kiss, but he knew for certain that she would be unhappy if An Jianwen won it.

Although Guan Doctor Pharmaceuticals was running tight on funds at the moment, Wei Zhao could still produce two hundred thousand. For one thing, the pocket money Gu Pengzhan had given him alone came to that much.

Only, using money Gu Pengzhan had given him to buy his daughter's kiss somehow felt rather awkward.

Seeing Wei Zhao make his move, Gu Pengzhan shelved his own plan to bid for the time being. He looked very favorably upon Wei Zhao and his daughter, so if Wei Zhao won his daughter's kiss, Gu Pengzhan would be delighted.
