Ye Wangchuan smiled. He was a handsome man with a temperament like the bright moon in the sky, noble and outstanding without a trace of impurities.
This smile is even more unpleasant.
He lowered his head slightly, raised his thin lips, pretended not to understand, and whispered: "Why did I call you?"
Qiao Nian was already agitated by his teasing, so she let go of his hand, raised her head, and looked at him expressionlessly.
Ye Wangchuan looked at her more intently and smiled again: "God Qiao?"
Qiao Nian pursed his lips, his eyes were gloomy, his knuckles were slightly bent, and he tapped without saying a word.
Ye Wangchuan lowered his head and touched her forehead lightly, then raised his eyebrows. He was in a good mood and smiled, "I just said it casually. If you don't like it, I won't say it again."
Qiao Nian was becoming more and more overwhelmed by him. She always didn't know how to respond enthusiastically in this regard, mainly because no one had ever taught her how to respond to someone.
“…It’s not that I don’t like it.”
“…” Ye Wangchuan looked at her with a smile again.
Qiao Nian couldn't help but turn his head away, feeling depressed.
Fortunately, Ye Wangchuan could never figure out a girl's temper, so he turned to the underground auction and said, "This underground auction will indeed be selling Ganoderma lucidum. Are you going?"
"What number?" Qiao Nian was still thinking and asked him with lowered eyes.
While the two were talking, Nan Tianyi called.
Qiao Nian picked up the phone.
Nan Tianyi also told her about the underground auction that would be held soon. He wanted to buy the Ganoderma lucidum for Xie Tingyun, and asked Qiao Nian if she had time to go with him that day.
Qiao Nian did not answer him immediately, but asked about Ye Wangchuan's time, confirmed that he also had time, then took his phone to the floor-to-ceiling window and told Nan Tianyi to make an appointment.
Qin Si can't stay at home alone, so Qin Si will have to go too when the time comes.
*
Three days later. In the underground auction house of the Independent State.
This was Qiao Nian’s first time here. The auction venue was located on the underground floor of the InterContinental Hotel. From the moment he took the elevator down, he could see that the security at the auction venue was extremely tight. Patrol officers carrying weapons could be seen everywhere, and the verification along the way was also very high-tech.
No one can get in unless they have an invitation.
Qiao Nian followed Nan Tianyi and his group to the underground auction house in advance. Before the auction started, someone led Nan Tianyi into a small box near the auction house.
The small private room is fully equipped with sofas, bar counter and other amenities, making it a grand venue.
This was obviously not Nan Tianyi's first time here. He walked towards the circular sofa with ease and greeted Qiao Nian and others.
"The auction will not start until later. Xiaoye, Nian Nian, come over and sit down first. We will wait here."
Ye Wangchuan took a step forward and walked over.
He is tall and has long legs, even his reflection on the ground has long legs.
He is not like Qin Si, who would occasionally look around.
Ye Wangchuan did not look around the whole time, as if he was very familiar with the underground auction house in Independent State. He walked straight over and sat down.
Nan Tianyi had a very good impression of him, and turned around and called Qiao Nian: "Niannian, come over and sit down and have a rest."
"You guys sit down, I won't." As Qiao Nian spoke, he casually took out his cell phone, leaned against the bar and played with it, looking uninhibited.
Qin Si is a chatterbox. When he is around, there is never any need to worry about the atmosphere being dull. He can liven up the atmosphere of the entire place and play his role all by himself.
Anyway, the auction hadn't started yet, so Nan Tianyi told them the rules of the underground auction and the purpose of their visit to the auction today.
