Chapter 136: Auction Ends

Such a big person vanished right before Guan Xianxian, and she couldn't help but scream!

The attendant was also completely bewildered!

He quickly reacted and notified the auction headquarters.

"Yes, I'm certain—please check the surveillance!"

"What on earth is going on?"

Qin Yuanjun held Guan Xianxian, gently patting her back, but his attitude and expression toward the attendant were terrible—he was like a lion whose territory had been invaded, flicking his tail with a 'pat-pat'.

"Sorry, we don't know what's happening either!"

The attendant was also dazed!

"We're already contacting the relevant person—please wait a moment!"

The people in game mode also heard that scream; many took off their glasses and sent someone to investigate.

The auction headquarters checked the surveillance over and over but couldn't find where the person went; after much hesitation, they had the host announce to the seated guests that the auction was canceled.

"Canceled? How could it be canceled?"

A female character sitting near Su Yu shouted loudly.

Someone spoke up, and the whole auction became noisy.

"What's going on with you? You confidently told me there would be top-quality gems, yet now you say it's canceled!"

"What about your auction's reputation?"

"Is it because of that first person? What did they do?"

……

Su Yu heard the noisy clamor, both inside and out, leaving her feeling a bit dazed.

But the matter wasn't over yet; she said to Su Xi, who had taken off her glasses, "Shall we go back?"

【As long as we run fast enough, trouble won't catch up to us!】

Su Xi agreed, holding her as they hurried away.

Few people made the same choice as Su Xi. Since an accident occurred midway through this auction, compensation would surely be given; leaving early meant they would not receive any.

The attendant asked Su Xi in surprise, "Won't you stay a bit longer? We'll later deposit compensation into your account, or send you a small gift!"

"No need!"

Su Xi strode away holding Su Yu. What kind of good person helps others launder money? He didn't want to have anything to do with such an auction.

Back in the car, Su Yu originally wanted to ask how Wulongcha was doing, but seeing Su Xi sending a message, she quickly leaned in.

Su Xi: Who sent the auction invitation?

Qin Tao: It was sent by the Yin family.

【The Yin family? Could the Yin family be related to this auction?】

Su Yu curiously waited for Su Xi's next move—he should be sending someone to investigate, or perhaps he already knows?

Su Xi: What's the relationship between the organizers and the Yin family?

Qin Tao: Please wait a moment, I'll check.

Qin Tao felt it was strange. Shouldn't this kind of thing be handed over to Meng Xianle to investigate?

Su Yu quickly had Wulongcha, who had returned to her side, go check.

【How did we get dragged into the Yin family? Is this auction really connected to the Yin family?】

【Yes, the host of this auction is the fiancée of Yin Bowen from the Yin family.】

Wulongcha had seen her before; at the time, seeing the host's identity was quite surprising. Has this guy quit being a teacher? To come over and host an auction—what a huge leap!

【Wulongcha, go check it out!】

【Okay!】

Wulongcha sped off to gather news; Su Yu glanced at Su Xi's phone—there were no new messages.

"Do you know who was pretending to be me tonight?"

"It's Ye Shu."

【No wonder I've been so unlucky today! I came to the auction feeling lonely, and almost got into trouble!】

"Didn't he go get his license? No need to rush the wedding?"

"The first item up for auction tonight is a pink diamond."

Su Yu understood—this was meant to be bought for Xie Xin Yi.

【Good thing we didn't buy it; otherwise running into this would be so unlucky! A perfectly good wedding would be overshadowed by a dark cloud!】

Thinking about this, Su Yu felt that perhaps the plot or heaven itself was targeting Ye Shu—lately, anything related to him has been going poorly.

"How did he leave?"

Su Xi lied without blushing or a racing heart, "I don't know."

"Too bad—if we want to prank him next time, we can only do it after his wedding."

Pranking at a wedding isn't very moral. Su Yu wouldn't do such a thing, and it's definitely not because she's afraid of missing out on red envelopes.

【Host, I'm back after finishing my check!】

【What's going on?】

Good night, babies~
