The scene before them quickly changed again.

This time, it wasn't the bright light that brought Lin Yu back to his senses, but rather the noisy commotion.

Lin Yu opened his eyes.

At that moment, he was at the Guixing Auction.

Lin Yu had visited this place when he asked Sister Hong for help with the auction.

Absolutely certain.

In this dream world, Lin Yu sat in the auctioneer's seat.

It appears that they are playing the role of a bidder.

Sitting next to Lin Yu was naturally the master of the dream world, Shen Jiuyi!

"Lin Yu, if you're sleepy, you can quit and not participate."

"Today's event wasn't originally intended to be a real auction."

Shen Jiuyi didn't even look at Lin Yu, she just spoke calmly.

Lin Yu pinched Shen Jiuyi's cheek and said in an annoyed tone:

"Next time you speak, could you please look at me while you speak?"

"Don't I have any pride?"

I was just thoroughly tricked in Huang Feirong's dream world.

Now that the roles of offense and defense have reversed, Lin Yu will not show any mercy.

Shen Jiuyi stared at her with wide eyes: "!!!"

His eyes seemed to be filled with incomprehension at Lin Yu's behavior.

Lin Yu spoke frankly:

Why are you looking at me like that? Can't I pinch your cheek?

Lin Yu's question was entirely a rhetorical one.

Shen Jiuyi's expression said it all.

Pinching cheeks is an ambiguous gesture that is clearly unacceptable to her.

It's a pity.

If it were any other time, Lin Yu might have been able to maintain a rational level of respect.

Now?

Shen Jiuyi was one of the people who had just mocked him in the King of Dirty Jokes' dream!

Shen Jiuyi took a deep breath.

Trying to remain calm, he said:

"Lin Yu, it can't be because of my fate..."

Before Shen Jiuyi could finish speaking, Lin Yu interrupted her directly:

"That's precisely why, right?"

"If you don't obey, I'll tell everyone about your destiny!"

These words were spoken.

It was obvious that Shen Jiuyi trembled all over.

The Lin Yu she imagined was not like this. Has he suddenly become a different person today?

They actually used her weakness to blackmail her so directly.

The key is...

Shen Jiuyi didn't dare to refute Lin Yu yet.

If you really anger him, he might reveal the truth about your destiny...

From now on, won't she never be able to hold her head up in front of Shen Buyao again?

These years.

She relentlessly used Yao Yao's cursed fate of being a lone star to attack her.

It's completely unimaginable.

What a terrible situation it would be if Yao Yao knew about her destiny!

No! No!

This must never be allowed to happen.

Faced with Lin Yu's fierce and menacing attack, Shen Jiuyi chose to remain silent on the spot.

She turned her head away immediately, trying to avoid eye contact with him.

Lin Yu looked at Shen Jiuyi's submissive reaction.

hiss!

As expected.

It's truly exhilarating to be a villain once in a while.

It's so hard to be a good person!

Lin Yu suppressed the evil thoughts in his heart and asked:

"Xiao Jiu, tell me what's the situation here right now?"

"The auction hasn't even started yet, so why are there so many people crowding in front of us!"

"Are all these people here to cause trouble?"

Lin Yu didn't forget the important matter; he still needed to understand the necessary information.

Hearing Lin Yu talk about serious matters, Shen Jiuyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the bustling scene ahead, she explained:

"Most of them are just onlookers; there's only one person who's actually causing trouble."

"That burly man in the black vest!"

"They said they found a fake at the Guihang auction, and they said the exact same thing as those two people from a few days ago."

Lin Yu looked at the man in the vest that Shen Jiuyi had mentioned.

He really wanted to see the other person's face clearly, but all he could see was a mosaic of pixels, making it impossible to make out anything.

It doesn't matter to Shen Jiuyi who this person is in her subconscious.

The important thing is the people behind him.

"Is he just a henchman? Have we found the boss behind him?"

Shen Jiuyi did not answer directly, but looked at Lin Yu in surprise and remained silent for a long time.

Lin Yu flicked Shen Jiuyi's forehead, instantly bringing her back to consciousness.

"Xiao Jiu, what's with that expression?"

"It's as if I can't imagine anyone ordering him to do this!"

"I'm not stupid, anyone with eyes can see that, right?"

Shen Jiuyi rubbed her forehead and thought about it along Lin Yu's lines of thought; it was indeed true.

She then spoke:

“Sister Hong and I think so too. Including this person, there are now three people causing trouble.”

"The person behind it was very careful and cautious. The three people had absolutely no connection or common ground."

"It's not an easy task to find out who's behind this."

Lin Yu nodded, not surprised by the result.

If the other party can't even handle this small matter, what gives them the audacity to resort to underhanded tactics?

at the same time.

Lin Yu also understood why the Huang family felt so aggrieved.

If you can't find anything and there's no evidence, there's simply no way to prove your innocence.

Since following the clues isn't working, we should try a different approach.

Today in the dream world, Lin Yu did not intend to find the "real culprit" all at once.

At the very least, we need to gather some useful information.

"Even if we can't find the person behind this, with your two families' experience in the antique business..."

"Shouldn't that give us a rough idea of ​​who they are?"
