Those who heard the sweet murmurs that Feng Tianhua said to Xing Yiyue couldn't help but praise the couple.

"Oh my. Sister Yue is so lucky. CEO Feng surely dotes on her alot." One of Xing Yiyue's friends commented.

The others followed with a giggle. Xing Yiyue smiled bashfully and tightened her hold on her husband's hand.

"It's so obvious that they love each other and are meant to be together. I'm sure Tang Moyu is drowning with envy right now, since she couldn't experience the same thing." Another one commented.

"Ah, I knew the rumors about her and Feng Tianyi was only meant for her to stay relevant. I don't think Mr. Feng is really into her. Just look at her, sulking in the corner."

They glanced towards Tang Moyu's direction, giving the empress a mocking look. Who hadn't heard about Tang Moyu being Feng Tianhua's fiancée before he met Xing Yiyue?

Feng Tianhua frowned at that. So in the end, even Tang Moyu was used by his older brother? Wasn't this the reason why he warned Tang Moyu to not associate herself with Feng Tianyi?

'Damn you, Feng Tianyi! I knew you were using Moyu all this time!'

Seeing Tang Moyu sitting with Lu Tianxin and Ye Xiaozu, seemingly as the third wheel, Feng Tianhua had the urge to walk towards the empress and accompany her.

However, he knew that it was impossible. He didn't want to make his wife suspicious of him and didn't want to create trouble for himself.

There was a short break after the first auction, allowing the guests to stabilize the tension and excitement in the crowd. Only one ring had been presented so far, but everyone had already lost their heads and couldn't wait to see more from Xiao Xing's Rainbow Diamond Collection.

It didn't take long before the orange diamond pendant and yellow diamond earrings, each weighing three carats, were presented to the public.

The orange diamond from the rainbow collection had no overtone colors, which made it the rarest stone that existed.

The professional jewelers took their time to assess the gem and proved that it had secondary color. Orange diamonds drop in price dramatically if they had one and they were deeply impressed that Xiao Xing managed to get a hand on an orange diamond with no overtone colors.

Meanwhile, other guests were a bit reluctant to purchase the yellow diamond. This was because yellow diamonds were considered the most popular and least expensive colored diamonds in the market.

"Isn't the yellow color on diamonds a bad thing?" Someone in the crowd voiced out his confusion. Regular colorless diamonds that had a yellowish hue can be considered a negative quality when it comes to diamonds.

"No, not always." An established jeweler answered him. The old man pushed his spectacles up and eyed the yellow diamond which was called "Sunny's smile".

"Yellow diamonds are a wonderful thing when the yellow color is strong enough to be obvious and attractive when a faceted diamond is viewed in the face-up position." He explained.

"So the stronger the hue is, the better?" An actress cast a curious look at the diamond earrings.

"You can say that. But it's still better to be assessed first for its quality. For the "Sunny's smile", it has a pure intense yellow tone. Such a kind is the most sought-after and valuable type of yellow diamond." The old man said, deeply pleased that Xiao Xing had managed to present each of their unique diamonds from the rainbow collection perfectly.

Even the orange diamond was outstanding on its own. Diamond experts and jewelers knew that it was a hybrid in the truest sense between yellow and red, so it was on par for the course to see strong modifiers in orange diamonds.

The bidding continued and just as Feng Tianhua promised, he bidded and managed to get the yellow diamond earrings for Xing Yiyue at a hundred thousand dollars, while the orange diamond pendant was sold at three million dollars.

As the crowd cheered for the couple, Tang Moyu couldn't help but hide her smile behind her hand. Xing Yiyue looked deeply pleased by getting her hands on a pair of diamonds she hadn't had or seen before.

"Aiya, Feng Tianhua is so cheap! Why did he get the cheapest diamond from the rainbow collection?" Lu Tianxin murmured next to her cousin.

"A hundred thousand dollar diamond earring isn't that bad, Tianxin. I don't even have diamond earrings." Tang Moyu said nonchalantly.

"Yeah, yeah, right." Ye Xiaozu scoffed beside Lu Tianxin. "Why would you need to own a pair of diamond earrings when you own a massive diamond mine and company yourself?"

"Aww, darling. Are you still upset that Moyu didn't accept your proposal to invest in Xiao Xing?" Lu Tianxin poked his side.

"Of course not…" Ye Xiaozu declined, but he still thought that it was a pity Tang Moyu and Feng Tianyi decided to establish Xiao Xing on their own.

Just by looking at the quality of diamonds Xiao Xing had and how much the bidders were willing to spend on these precious gems, he could already assume that this business would be lucrative for the empress in the future.

While Xing Yiyue was smiling ear to ear from receiving a pair of diamonds from her husband, Liu Ruoyan scowled and slumped lazily on her seat, waiting for the next diamonds to be presented.

How can she let this chance to get her hands on those diamonds slide? It might be impossible to seduce Feng Tianyi for now, but that didn't mean she couldn't get one of the beautiful and sought after stones tonight.

She liked those yellow diamond earrings too, but seeing that Feng Tianhua was bidding on it, Liu Ruoyan decided to bid on the orange diamond pendant, but got beaten by the chairman of a jewelry firm instead.

'Ha! Y'all just wait! Once I become Feng Tianyi's wife, all the diamonds would be mine!" She sneered inwardly.
