The auction in the VIP room lasted for a full three hours. When the last treasure was bought by Mu Wushuang for fifteen million as expected, everyone slowly left the venue as Yue Ji announced that the auction was over.
Lei Ren and Chen Zichong were led to the backstage by the staff of the Cornucopia. According to the rules of the Cornucopia, payment is made on the spot and no penny is owed, no matter who the other party is.
This is also the reason why Mr. Tianjian was so angry that Chen Zichong raised the price but was helpless.
Cornucopia has huge power, not only in Nanzhou, but also in the entire Fairy Dynasty. This is not something that a young master from the Lord's Palace of Bermuda City can break the rules.
"Wait for me outside, I have something to tell you."
Before being led to the backstage by the staff, Lei Ren sent a message to Mu Qingyan, who was about to walk out of the auction house, into the secret passage.
Mu Qingyan had been paying attention to Lei Ren. When she heard the voice, she said to Lei Ren: "Yeah." But her heart was already ups and downs.
It’s almost two years since I last saw Lei Ren? She thought.
Arriving backstage, escorted by two graceful maids, Yue Ji sat at the sandalwood table, holding up an ancient porcelain teacup with the delicate fingers of her right hand.
People came in one by one to pay and receive things. Yue Ji didn't say anything until he suddenly felt a strange breath. He looked up and saw Chen Zichong staring at her with a red face.
When Chen Zichong saw Yue Ji staring at her, his face turned redder and he hesitated: "Miss Yue Ji, I...I have seen you...I...I have talked to you before, hehe."
Typical pervert with a sultry tone.
Yue Ji was obviously used to seeing all kinds of people. Seeing Chen Zichong drooling like this, he just smiled softly and said, "Really? I seem to have an impression."
In a word, Chen Zichong was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
Lei Ren, who was on the side, ignored them and handed over to the person next to Yue Ji. He got the pet bag, Magnolia Phoenix Hairpin and Dragon Breath Pill. He put them away, and then anxiously asked the maid to count the money.
He was anxious to meet Mu Qingyan, so he didn't pay attention to Chen Zichong, who was lustful but not bold.
Instead, Yue Ji noticed Thunder Blade.
Who wouldn't take a second look at her when she came backstage to pick up something? Who wouldn't find an opportunity to strike up a conversation with her and compliment her on her beauty and temperament?
Only Lei Ren didn't even look at him after he came in.
Unfortunately, Thunder Blade performed extremely well at the auction today, leaving a deep impression on Yue Ji.
"This guest, you took a lot of photos today." Yueji Yueji smiled slightly and took the initiative to talk to Lei Ren.
Lei Renzhai faced her, without looking back, and simply replied: "It's okay, I'm bleeding profusely too." His tone was calm.
Hearing this, Yue Ji frowned slightly and raised her long legs. The leg opening of her cheongsam was very high. Between her legs, a piece of snow-white was exposed, which was very charming.
"You are targeting Mr. Tianjian of Bermuda City today, and you are the black-handed swordsman Lu Shi. After walking out of the cornucopia, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape easily."
Yue Ji still had a charming smile on her face. She knew that the guests who were taking pictures and buying things here were all well-known people. If they were slapped in the face in public, how could they not get into trouble after leaving the venue?
"When buying things at auction, the one with the highest price gets it, so why should I criticize them? If they don't accept it, there's nothing I can do about it."
At this time, the maid finished counting the money, Lei Ren put away the space bag and said: "Sorry, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
This sentence seemed to be said to Yue Ji, but also seemed to be said to Chen Zichong. After he finished speaking, he hurried out.
Embarrassment flashed across Yue Ji's face. She had never received such a cold reception since arriving in Raging Fire City.
"This person has a very unusual aura. Haha, maybe it's a bit interesting." She took a sip of tea and narrowed her eyes playfully.
…
"Qingyan, you want to wait for that guy? When we went out, the clan leader repeatedly told me to take good care of you. You should understand what the clan leader means. He doesn't want you to meet Lei Ren. Let's go, don't make things difficult for me."
At the door of the cornucopia, when Mu Qingyan was about to stay, Mu Wushuang frowned.
"Master Tianjian just asked me to tell you that he will be the host tonight and invite us to go to the lantern festival and have supper." Mu Wushuang stared at Mu Qingyan.
Mu Qingyan said nothing, just shook her head.
Mu Jingyun stuck out his tongue but said nothing.
Mu Qingqing said happily: "Okay, okay! I'll see you later tonight! Sister Qingyan, let's go. We can't refuse the invitation from the city lord. Besides, what Mr. Tianjian means to you is the whole
Everyone in Bermuda City knows it. You are the most beautiful woman in Bermuda City, and he is the most handsome young man in Bermuda City. You guys are talented and beautiful, how wonderful! Many women who want to marry Mr. Tianjian have no chance. You don’t want to be born in
I don’t know the blessings among the blessings.”
As Mu Qingqing spoke, her face turned slightly red.
Mu Qingyan said seriously: "Since the city lord's invitation cannot be refused, then you can go ahead. I will be here alone and meet you in the evening."
Mu Qingyan's character has always been stubborn. When Mu Wushuang heard this, he could only sigh helplessly. No matter how much he said that Mu Qingyan was Mu Zongtian's only daughter, he did not dare to show mercy.
Just when Mu Wushuang was at his wits' end, he saw Master Tianjian and his sister walking towards them. Mu Wushuang was overjoyed.
"Young master, you came just in time, we are preparing to find you." Mu Wushuang said.
Master Tianjian kept his eyes on Mu Qingyan, as if he had not heard Mu Wushuang's words. He walked up to Mu Qingyan, looked down at her with a gentle look, and said, "Miss Mu, let's have dinner together tonight?
Let's go back to Bermuda City together tomorrow, and I can just stop by to visit Uncle Mu."
Facing the extremely polite Master Tianjian, Mu Qingyan didn't know how to refuse.
"Miss Mu."
Suddenly, a powerful voice came from the door of the cornucopia. Mu Qingyan's body trembled, she subconsciously turned around, and came directly to Lei Ren, who was walking towards her.
Thunder Blade came out very "untimely".
Except for Mu Jingyun, the other people's faces were not very good-looking. Especially Master Tianjian.
Standing in front of Lei Ren, Mu Qingyan felt that her breathing was very rapid, and her face was red and hot. Fortunately, she was covered by a veil, so Lei Ren couldn't see her expression.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, neither knowing what to say. They were stunned for a moment, then both laughed.
"Oh, this is for you."
Lei Ren took out something from the space bag and handed it to Mu Qingyan.
From a distance, Master Tianjian looked at it and was so angry that he almost spit fire from his mouth.
The thing that Lei Ren gave him was the Magnolia Phoenix Hairpin that he snatched away from him!
Originally, Mr. Tianjian wanted to take a photo and give it to Mu Qingyan.
Now, he was watching another man put the Magnolia Phoenix Hairpin into Mu Qingyan's hand.
Such a gap makes Mr. Tianjian, who has never been angry before, almost go crazy!
