"Brother Zhou, I’ve really gone all out this time. I hope your idea works!"
Zhang Wanbao muttered to himself, then carefully returned everything to its original place before quietly leaving.
"I knew that fat boy was up to something!" Fu Kui’s figure emerged from the darkness, frowned slightly, and then disappeared.
The next day, Xiao Cancan, who stayed at Li Shitao’s house, yawned and got up. After a simple wash, she disguised herself as a man again. Just then, there was a knock on the door from outside.
"Who could it be so early? Could it be Brother Zhou and Brother Yan?" Xiao Cancan wondered.
After all, they had gotten quite familiar last night. Sister Wanli... no, it should be Tao, who had completely said goodbye to her past, personally cooked a lot of delicious food for them.
Because of the differences between men and women, they left after it got dark.
"Tao, someone is knocking on the door!" Xiao Cancan called out but did not hear a reply from Li Shitao.
There was no other way, so she had to go out, cross the front yard, and open the courtyard door.
Outside the door was a servant with a somewhat familiar face. Xiao Cancan quickly remembered; wasn’t he someone who had always followed Zhang Wanbao?
"Miss Xiao, this is from my young master for you. He also wanted me to tell you he will never bother you again!"
After speaking, the servant respectfully handed over a red square box.
Xiao Cancan was puzzled, not knowing what tricks Fatty Zhang was up to again. As she opened it and saw the marriage proposal letter inside, she was stunned.
"Is he crazy!" Xiao Cancan muttered, but for some reason, a trace of panic welled up in her heart.
"I’ll take my leave!" The servant said, saluted, and turned to leave.
He walked to a side alley, stopped, and immediately slipped inside.
Zhang Wanbao had already been waiting there for some time.
"Quick, quick, quick—" Zhang Wanbao, feeling nervous, hurriedly extended his hand.
The servant quickly took out an Imaging Stone from the bulge on his shoulder.
After receiving it, Zhang Wanbao immediately injected spiritual power, and soon, an image was projected.
It was the scene of Xiao Cancan receiving the marriage proposal letter just now.
"Look, isn’t she full of disbelief? Doesn’t she also seem a bit disappointed?" Zhang Wanbao said excitedly, looking at the image projected by the stone.
The servant nodded and smiled repeatedly, "Yes, young master, yes."
"It seems Brother Zhou’s idea was really effective. I’ll go report this good news to him!"
Excitedly, Zhang Wanbao grabbed the Imaging Stone and rushed towards the Jade Pavilion.
"Dear customer, what would you... what are you doing, shopkeeper, shopkeeper..."
The shop assistant was just about to greet him when he saw Zhang Wanbao rushing straight inside. Frightened, he quickly called for the shopkeeper.
Qian Dafu hurried out from the backyard. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Zhang Wanbao’s appearance and couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.
This is... the young master of the Wanxiang Auction House?
At this moment, he quickly waved to the shop assistant and then smiled warmly, "I didn’t know Mr. Zhang was visiting. Please forgive me for not greeting you properly."
Zhang Wanbao looked around and hurriedly asked, "Where is my Brother Zhou?"
"Brother Zhou?" Qian Dafu was stunned.
He immediately understood.
Goodness, Zhou Qing is impressive. He has only been in Lingyun Mansion for a few days and has already become Zhang Wanbao’s brother.
"Mr. Zhang, I’m afraid they have already gone out." Qian Dafu said.
Zhang Wanbao was stunned, "They went out so early? What for? When will they be back? Can you contact them? I really have something urgent to discuss with them."
Qian Dafu looked at the sky.
It’s already noon, and he says it’s early?
He had no choice but to smile apologetically, "Mr. Zhang, you might not know, but they have been busy collecting ingredients for the Nascent Soul Formation Pill lately. They leave early and come back late. They might not return until evening, and I can’t contact them either. May I know what urgent matter you have with them?"
Qian Dafu decided to probe a bit.
Zhang Wanbao blinked, "Nascent Soul Formation Pill?"
Qian Dafu replied, "Yes, the Nascent Soul Formation Pill."
"For such a minor matter, making my two brothers so busy, Wu Chuan, Wu Chuan," Zhang Wanbao immediately called out.
Soon, the servant from earlier ran in.
Zhang Wanbao asked, "Does the auction this time have Nascent Soul Formation Pills?"
Wu Chuan was stunned, then shook his head.
He indeed didn’t know since their main task was protecting the young master.
Seeing Wu Chuan shaking his head, Zhang Wanbao didn’t bother to run again and said, "Go back and bring all the Nascent Soul Formation Pills for my brothers. If asked, tell them it’s for me."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chuan’s face changed dramatically.
Oh my young master, I don’t have such authority.
"Why are you still standing there? Go quickly. Also, ask for a list of what’s available at the auction. My brothers might need something else too!"
Zhang Wanbao waved his hand.
With a bitter face, Wu Chuan had no choice but to turn and leave.
Qian Dafu was stunned by the actions of this young fatty.
Is this the world of the rich?
The three of them had been scraping together money for so long, working tirelessly every day, but for this young master, it was just a simple matter.
But he quickly came back to his senses, "Mr. Zhang, if you don’t mind the simplicity of my place, please come inside and have a seat. I’ll send someone to find them for you."
"Thank you, thank you!" Hearing this, Zhang Wanbao was happy again, then wiped the sweat off his forehead and followed him inside.
It wasn’t until dusk that Wu Chuan returned.
