Chapter 37

Fan Wenhao had long admired Xu Jing, but Xu Jing never paid attention to his advances.

So he could only find some Internet Celebrity to vent his loneliness.

Today he brought an Internet Celebrity here just to show off in front of her.

Who would have thought he couldn't keep up the act, and instead was publicly embarrassed by Lin Yang.

Moreover, the Xu Jing he had taken a liking to appeared very intimate with him, which made him quite displeased.

Lin Yang was also somewhat surprised to see Xu Jing.

"How come you're here?"

Xu Jing, upon hearing this, pouted her lips and said.

"What, I can't be here?"

Seeing Xu Jing's childish demeanor, Lin Yang said helplessly.

"Of course not, I'm just a bit surprised."

Xu Jing, upon hearing this, smiled and said: "There's a Small Auction here; my father said there are good things, and he asked me to come broaden my horizons."

As for Xu Jing's family, he only knew it was related to the Jewelry Industry, and didn't know the specifics.

Now hearing her say there was a Small Auction, he also became interested.

"Can you take me to have a look?"

"Sure."

While the two were chatting happily, Fan Wenhao stepped forward with a smile.

"Xu Jing, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you here."

Xu Jing glanced at him, then at the heavily made-up Internet Celebrity beside him, and her brows furrowed slightly.

She gave a polite smile, then pulled Lin Yang and left.

"I still have things to do, I'll go first."

"Wait!"

Seeing Xu Jing pull Lin Yang away, he shouted loudly.

Xu Jing, upon hearing this, turned her head to look at him and asked impatiently.

"What's the matter?"

Fan Wenhao gave an embarrassed smile, then pointed at Lin Yang.

"Xu Jing, this brat is a swindler; you'd better stay away from him."

Upon hearing Fan Wenhao say Lin Yang was a swindler, Xu Jing couldn't help but frown and ask.

"You say he's a swindler?"

"Yes, just now he teamed up with a Street Vendor to swindle me out of ten thousand!"

Hearing this, Xu Jing turned and left without looking back.

He knew Lin Yang's net worth—he could pull out a hundred million in cash—would he be short of ten thousand?

Seeing Xu Jing turn and leave, Fan Wenhao immediately ran after her.

"Xu Jing, you have to believe me, I'm telling the truth!"

Saying that, he stared at the female Internet Celebrity, ran to Xu Jing's front, and pointed at Lin Yang saying.

"Speak, did you swindle me out of ten thousand!"

Lin Yang, upon hearing this, laughed and said: "You're being pointless; it's your own lack of skill that made you misjudge, why blame me?"

"I offered five hundred for that Jade Hairpin, you yourself put up ten thousand, and now you blame me for cheating you out of money?"

"If you have a screw loose, go get your head checked; don't make a fool of yourself here."

Fan Wenhao's face flushed red from being scolded by Lin Yang, and he gritted his teeth staring at Lin Yang.

"You dare scold me!"

"Even my dad has never scolded me!"

Having said that, he shouted loudly and threw a punch at Lin Yang.

Looking at his punch, Lin Yang didn't budge an inch.

Eyes Staring Wide, he gave A Loud Shout at him.

"You dare!"

A Loud Shout was like Vajra Wrathful Eyes, scaring Fan Wenhao into standing there dazed, Forehead Sweat Pouring.

In the end, his body went limp and he collapsed straight to the ground.

Seeing him like that, Female Companion Helped Him Up.

"Hao Ge, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Jing also looked at Lin Yang in astonishment, merely with A Loud Shout scaring Fan Wenhao into collapsing on the ground?!

Only Lin Yang knew that this strike used a bit of Spiritual Power to attack, directly hitting the soul.

It caused Fan Wenhao's Soul Turmoil, leaving his limbs weak.

Seeing Xu Jing's astonished gaze, Lin Yang faintly smiled.

"This person is too timid, let's go."

Xu Jing nodded, didn't ask further, and left with Lin Yang.

After Lin Yang left, with Liang Sisi's support, Fan Wenhao stood up.

As soon as he rose, he heard the surrounding Discussion Voices.

"This Young Master of the Fan family is really too timid, being scared by a shout!"

"Yeah, it's so embarrassing; even my son wouldn't be scared into collapsing by a single sentence."

Hearing everyone's words, Fan Wenhao's face flushed crimson.

He watched Lin Yang's departing back, gritted his teeth and followed!

On Antique Street, inside an old-fashioned teahouse.

Usually, the spacious Hall only had a few people scattered about.

Today, however, the Hall was filled with distinguished guests.

Those who could sit were all people of extraordinary status.

Xu Jing, who had brought Lin Yang in, found a slightly secluded corner and sat down.

"I heard that today a Collector Tycoon is putting his collection up for auction, so everyone who came is a person of some standing."

"This time we came just to look; buying has nothing to do with us."

Hearing this, Lin Yang glanced around.

Most of the people seated here are in their forties or fifties.

Only a few youngsters are present sporadically.

Meanwhile, the auction has already begun.

A jade-green bracelet is being auctioned for millions.

"This jade is quite good, but the price is too high; it's not worth it for me."

Once a jade is inscribed with Fú zhòu, using it even once will cause damage.

No matter how fine the jade, after at most three uses it will be completely ruined.

In the end, the bracelet was bought by a man in his fifties.

"Finally it's my turn; I'm auctioning a piece of calligraphy and painting."

A young man in his twenties, holding a piece of calligraphy and painting, walked to the front and unfolded it.

"Look, this 'Xishan Juexue' from the Eight Views Scroll, gentlemen, make your bids."

When 'Xishan Juexue' appeared, Lin Yang's pupils constricted.

How could he be unfamiliar with this!

This painting was his father's collection back then; he had thought this calligraphy and painting had long been burned to ashes.

He never expected to see it again today.

He stood up and asked in a deep voice.

"How can we confirm this picture is genuine?"

His question drew many looks.

The youth who produced the calligraphy and painting snorted coldly.

"There are so many Collector Masters here; just ask anyone and it'll be clear."

At that moment, an old man in a black Zhongshan suit stood up.

"I am Huang Kai; I have come to verify it."

Upon hearing it was Huang Kai, everyone rose and clasped their fists, saying.

"So it's Master Huang."

Huang Kai nodded, walked to the front, and began authenticating the painting.

Soon after, he nodded and said, "This is a genuine work."

Yang Kaitai looked triumphantly at Lin Yang and said.

"Did you hear that, kid? Do you want to buy it?"

Lin Yang heard this, nodded, and walked up to Yang Kaitai.

"What's your surname?"

"I'm Yang Kaitai."

As soon as his words fell, Lin Yang snatched the calligraphy and painting from his hand.

"The calligraphy and painting belongs to me."

"What about the money?"

Lin Yang looked at him, his eyes icy.

"The calligraphy and painting returns to its owner; no money."

Yang Kaitai flew into a rage upon hearing that.

"Damn, you're showing off without even having money!"

Having said that, he drew a Small Knife and stabbed at Lin Yang.

But before his Small Knife could touch Lin Yang, it was seized, then wrested away, and a single thrust pierced his palm.

"Ah!"

As the wail rang out, Lin Yang said with an indifferent expression.

"Too noisy."

A One Slap sent out, and Yang Kaitai fainted outright.

In an instant, the entire Hall fell into dead silence.
