Each of the bidders had to register first, then got a bidding paddle for the auction.
Although only Gu Ning would attend the auction, Leng Shaoting and the others also registered. Nobody could have a seat without registration, and standing in the hall wasn't allowed.
Bidders without an invitation letter were classified as common guests, and they could only have seats at the rear rows.

When Gu Ning and her friends came to register, they met Qi Ziyue and his friends.
Qi Ziyue and Tang Yaxin didn't dare show any dislike towards Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting this time, but Ayumi Yamaguchi and Shouta Minamino were still unkind.
"Hi, Lord Leng, it's so nice to meet you! I'm the marketing director of the Tang Organization, Qi Ziyue. I'm sorry that I didn't realize it was you until yesterday." Qi Ziyue greeted Leng Shaoting on his own initiative.
