Chapter 53 - 53 53 Auction (2)
?53: Chapter 53 Auction (2) 53: Chapter 53 Auction (2) The album was exquisitely made, complete with a brief introduction.
An Yiqing simply flipped through it, finding nothing more than jewelry and jade articles that, in her eyes, were rather unremarkable.
She knew that even a random rice bowl from the Medicine Sect was worth much more than these items.
Bored, she idly leafed through the album, until she reached the last page, which featured a large “?”
“What does this mean?” An Yiqing asked with some curiosity.
Bai Yiming looked at it and explained with a smile, “It’s a rule of the Huifeng Auction, to keep the final auction item a mystery.
It will only be revealed during the auction.”
The moment An Yiqing heard this, her interest was piqued.
This auction house did have some curious features, “Then do you know what today’s finale treasure is?”
“I heard it’s a Furnace Cauldron.” Because Bai Yiming wasn’t too concerned, he hadn’t inquired in detail.
He looked at An Yiqing’s sparkling eyes and teased her, “Do you like that?”
“Hmm, I think it’s quite interesting.”
“If you like it, I’ll bid for it and give it to you,” Bai Yiming offered without a second thought, then he himself was stunned.
Was this what they called spending a fortune for a beauty…?
An Yiqing, on the other hand, hadn’t thought that much into it.
She waved her hand, “Thank you for your generosity, but I have enough savings to buy these things.” She preferred to secure the things she liked on her own rather than rely on a man to get them.
Bai Yiming was a bit surprised to hear this, raising an elegant brow.
He didn’t believe that An Yiqing was naive or brash, so if she said she could afford it, it must be true.
But wasn’t she an orphan?
Where did the money come from?
Bai Yiming’s dark eyes narrowed as he stroked his chin, pondering.
This girl definitely had something up her sleeve!
“Qingqing!”
As the two exchanged casual conversation, a hearty female voice came from the doorway.
An Yiqing turned her head to see, and to her surprise, it was Shen Feng.
“Qingqing, I didn’t expect to see you here!” Shen Feng was pleasantly surprised.
She hadn’t planned on coming today, but her brother had dragged her here.
Although she was initially unhappy, she unexpectedly ran into An Yiqing, whom she got along with well.
“Xiao Feng, Shen Long.”
Shen Long was somewhat astonished.
How come An Yiqing was with Young Master Bai?
Could it be that they were…?
Having taken a seat in the second row, Shen Feng chattered away with An Yiqing.
Meanwhile, exclamations of surprise from women started to drift in from the entrance.
An Yiqing looked over to see a figure, elegant and free, entering her field of vision.
The man was tall and well-proportioned, dressed in white, his graceful and handsome features accentuated.
With a scholarly and fair face, his eyes carried a warm smile, and his lightly curved red lips, he looked like a heavenly being straight out of an ink painting, gentle and detached.
That man was Duan Tang!
“Today really is a coincidence, meeting you this afternoon and bumping into you again here in the evening,” Duan Tang said, delighted to see An Yiqing.
Owing to her treatment of Duan Yuntian, An Yiqing was actually able to see Duan Tang every day.
She, too, was curious; the Muyun Society was so large, yet why did this man seem to have so much free time?
“It seems today’s auction is quite the event, even you’re here.”
Duan Tang smiled and replied, “I’m just here to show face, that’s all.” Then he turned to Bai Yiming and nodded as a sign of acknowledgment, “Young Master Bai.”
“Family Head Duan and this girl?” Bai Yiming was taken aback.
How did this girl know everybody everywhere?
Duan Tang was no simple character!
“Friends through life and death.”
Hearing such an ambiguously warm explanation from Duan Tang, Bai Yiming felt a twinge of acidity in his heart.
Why were there so many romances around this girl?
