Lingyun Mansion’s annual auction was always bustling, attracting many people from various regions to attend.
This year was no different. Early in the morning, the bustling crowd had already begun lining up to pay the entrance fee.
Seeing the densely packed line, Zhang Wanbao led Zhou Qing and another person to a quieter side.
The environment here was serene, with few people coming and going, but there were designated beautiful attendants leading the way, clearly indicating a VIP passage.
"Follow me!" Zhang Wanbao led the two inside.
Seeing it was their young master, everyone hurriedly saluted.
"No problem, carry on with your work. Prepare an extra VIP room for my two brothers!" Zhang Wanbao ordered.
The person in charge of registration was immediately shocked and looked at Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu.
Zhou Qing quickly said, "No need, no need, we’ll just sit in the regular area."
Yan Xiaohu also agreed; they didn’t want to be too high-profile.
"The VIP room has a good view, good service, and is more comfortable," Zhang Wanbao said.
Both still objected, stating that a small corner would do just fine. After all, they had already reviewed the auction list, and aside from the Nascent Soul Formation Pill and Soul Breath Immortal Grass they had already obtained, nothing else was really necessary.
Their visit was purely for fun; there was no need to occupy a VIP room and waste it.
When persuasion failed, Zhang Wanbao had no choice but to arrange a corner spot for them.
"By the way, has the Mansion Master arrived?" Zhang Wanbao asked.
The registrar replied quickly, "They went in already, with Miss Cancan."
Zhang Wanbao’s eyes lit up instantly.
"Alright, carry on!" After saying this, the three of them went inside.
To avoid drawing attention, Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu split up from Zhang Wanbao and found their own seats.
Zhang Wanbao soon saw the central VIP room above lit up and was overjoyed.
"According to Zhou Qing’s plan, I need to make myself busy. These days I must restrain myself, and not have any contact with her. Maybe today is the chance!"
Zhang Wanbao looked at the plan given by Zhou Qing and then towards a certain backstage passage, his small eyes filled with craziness.
He quickly put away the plan and ran off.
Meanwhile, seeing the huge crowd in front of him and hearing the whispered conversations, Yan Xiaohu couldn’t help but exclaim.
This large auction, just the entrance fee alone, must be an unimaginable amount.
"I have a plan. Isn’t there no auction in Flame Dragon City at the foot of our sect’s mountain? Why don’t we brothers start one ourselves? You can be the vice president, and I’ll be the president. How about it?"
Yan Xiaohu excitedly suggested to Zhou Qing, clutching his old hen and already thinking of a name.
Zhou Qing was speechless and looked worried instead.
"Yan, I don’t know why, but since we sat down, I’ve had a vague feeling of unease," Zhou Qing said.
Yan Xiaohu was puzzled, "Unease? How is that possible? Would anyone dare to cause trouble at this auction? Just look at how many strong figures there are, other than Zhang Wanbao..."
Just as Yan Xiaohu said this, the two of them looked at each other immediately.
Could it be that this guy is up to something again?
Now that his father knows about their existence, any outrageous act he does will probably be blamed on them.
"Oh my, what a coincidence seeing you two here!" At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.
They turned around to see an elegant and charming woman taking a seat next to Yan Xiaohu, causing many onlookers to steal a glance.
"Why are you here too?" Yan Xiaohu asked.
Li Shitao covered her mouth and laughed softly, causing ripples that drew even more attention.
"Look at what you’re saying, if you can come, why can’t I? By the way, was it your idea about Cancan’s marriage proposal?" Li Shitao asked curiously.
Yan Xiaohu immediately shook his head, "What marriage proposal? What are you talking about?"
Li Shitao smiled, "It’s alright if you don’t admit it. We’re rivals, after all; it’s not the first time we spar. The thought excites me."
Zhou Qing laughed, "Tao, one shouldn’t destroy a marriage lightly."
"Young master, you are the ones tearing them apart. Cancan has been feeling a bit down lately," Li Shitao said, looking at Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing, sensing he was on the right track, smiled silently.
Li Shitao was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized.
"Playing hard to get? That’s no fun, being on the same side as you!" She leaned back in her chair, a bit disappointed.
Yan Xiaohu glanced at her ample bosom and said, "You’d better look after yourself with those attributes; you might invite a lot of unnecessary trouble."
Li Shitao looked down, laughed wildly, then mischievously crossed her legs and leaned close to Yan Xiaohu’s ear, breathing lightly.
"What, worried about me? Feeling jealous?"
Yan Xiaohu quickly scratched his ear, dragged Zhou Qing, and switched seats.
"Jealous of you? Are you crazy?" Yan Xiaohu muttered angrily.
Seeing his reaction, Li Shitao laughed heartily again, almost merrily.
"What’s everyone looking at? It’s one Top-Grade Spirit Stone per glance!" Li Shitao suddenly announced, her voice filled with allure.
The crowd quickly sat up straight, looking ahead obediently.
