Chapter 17 Blacklist

Participants in the Baode Auction must not only be rich but also noble. Without certain rights, one cannot participate.

Therefore, only those who can come to participate are at the top of the pyramid.

In order to protect the privacy of the bidders, Baode's auction is themed on mystery and everyone entering the venue must wear a mask.

Zhu Wendong picked up a mask with a white feather rim and tied it on his face, covering half of his face.

She was wearing a white fishtail dress, the light silk satin outlined her beautiful and well-proportioned figure. Her long hair was braided into a side braid and hung on one side. Her skin was white, cool and gentle, like a snow lotus blooming deep in the snow-capped mountains.

Zhu Wendong walked calmly to the auction seat.

Her purpose tonight was not to bid for the items, but to come purely to watch, just as a farewell.

People sat down around him one after another until the seats were full. Zhu Wendong heard several familiar voices coming from beside him.

"Lu Guanqi, you're here, will Qi Yanxue come?" This was said by Zhu Jianyi. She was wearing a light blue dress that was well-tailored, and her exquisite hair was loosely tied behind her head, showing her cuteness.

Lu Guanqi didn't know how she recognized him, so he resigned himself to his fate and said, "Miss, Qi Yanxue and I aren't always together, so how would I know if he would come?"

"I don't believe you. Last time I asked you about the relationship between Qi Yanxue and Zhu Wendong, you hesitated for a long time." Zhu Jianyi put his hands on his hips and said, "Lu Guanqi, you and Qi Yanxue grew up wearing the same crotch pants. Don't forget, we were born in the same hospital!"

“…”

This is all old news, and it's still worth bringing up.

According to this, Jiangbei is so big, and there must be thousands of babies born in the same hospital. Does he have to worship a target for each one?

Lu Guanqi clasped his hands together and said, "Miss, please let me go. I really don't know."

Zhu Jianyi snorted twice: "Forget it, considering this is the Zhou family's auction, I will spare you for now."

Zhu Wendong withdrew his gaze, and Zhu Jianyi and Lu Guanqi also arrived.

Never mind, it has nothing to do with her.

The auction begins.

The first few pieces were antique porcelain. Zhu Wendong was not very interested in them and looked at them intermittently as if he was distracted.

Lu Guanqi did buy a piece of porcelain, a tea set from the Song Dynasty. She remembered that Mr. Lu loved drinking tea, so she thought it was a gift for the elders in the family.

She knew this because when she was with Qi Yanxue, Qi Yanxue told her that he was adopted by the Qi family when he was a child, but no one in the Qi family took care of him at that time.

He often went hungry, and sometimes even went without food for a whole day. Later, Lu Guanqi visited the Qi family and met Qi Yanxue. After knowing this, he would drag Qi Yanxue to the Lu family for dinner whenever it was time.

Speaking of which, Qi Yanxue grew up eating the Lu family's food. Old Master Lu likes him, and he can be considered half a grandson of the Lu family.

Zhu Wendong thought of this for some reason, and when he came to his senses, half of the items in the auction had already been sold.

When someone in front of her was passing by her with a glass of red wine, he suddenly stumbled and the wine spilled towards Zhu Wendong.

Just as it was about to spill onto the hem of her skirt, she put on a black suit to block the red wine from invading her.

The person who served the wine quickly apologized and claimed that he would compensate her, but Zhu Wendong refused. After the two of them declined several times, they ignored one person.

The man beside him tutted his words lightly: "If you two keep chatting, it will be dark soon."

The man who served the wine scratched his head embarrassedly, and when he saw that there was really no need for compensation, he left in embarrassment.

Zhu Wendong then noticed him. He sat down on a chair beside him. Under the black mask were a pair of narrow and deep eyes with dark brown pupils, like an eagle lurking in the night.

There is an inexplicable familiarity.

Out of politeness, she thanked him and said, "Sir, let me add your contact information. I'll compensate you for the clothes."

The man crossed his legs, his arms folded across his chest, his white shirt hinting at abstinence. He looked at her calmly, "Okay, take me off the blacklist first."

“…”

At this moment, Zhu Wendong confirmed what he was thinking.

"Qi Yanxue?" she asked in a low, uncertain voice.

Qi Yanxue glanced at her and said, "It seems that I am the only one on Princess Zhu's blacklist. Should I feel honored for such a big thing?"

She didn't recognize him when they were talking, but she recognized him when she mentioned the blacklist. He's really good.

Zhu Wendong took out her cell phone from her handbag and said seriously, "No, it's not a big deal."

As he spoke, Zhu Wendong pulled him out of the blacklist and opened it to scan.

"I'll sweep you."

Qi Yanxue didn't say anything at this time. She casually tapped the screen twice with her fingertips and showed her a code.

After Zhu Wendong scanned the information, he was about to remind him to approve the friend request, but he found that the addition was successful without his approval.

She didn't think much about it and glanced at his WeChat homepage. The avatar was a dead tree standing in the distance, with snow hanging on the branches, like beautiful and broken ice crystals, and the surroundings were all white.

My WeChat name is a simple and clear word - snow.

It has the same meaning as her WeChat name Dong.

Although Zhu Wendong didn't know the meaning of Qi Yanxue's WeChat avatar, she was still clear about her own WeChat avatar.

Her profile picture is a white puppy in the snow, with its two short front paws stretched out to support itself on a snowman taller than itself. The picture is warm and cute.

When Zhu Wendong saw this avatar on the Internet, he was at the stage when he wanted to have a dog the most, but it was really inconvenient in California.

So Zhu Wendong changed his profile picture to this one, which is a bit like quenching thirst by looking at a plum.

Zhu Wendong put away his phone, pulled his suit jacket up between his legs, turned around and asked him, "How much is it? I'll transfer it to you later."

Qi Yanxue lowered her head and typed on her phone, apparently replying to a message. Seeing that Zhu Wendong was determined to pay compensation, she did not stop him and casually reported a number.

Zhu Wendong froze when he heard this.

I knew Qi Yanxue's current net worth was different, but I didn't expect it to be so outrageous.

A piece of clothing is expensive.

Zhu Wendong swallowed subconsciously, as it really made her already tight wallet even worse.

Qi Yanxue's lips curled up, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "It doesn't matter if you can't pay it back. It's not the first time you owe me clothes anyway."

Zhu Wendong retorted: "I returned that dress to you last night."

Qi Yanxue turned his head to look at her, and said something with a hint of meaning: "Who said it was last night?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Wendong actually started to think about it.

Apart from last night, when else had she taken his clothes and not returned them?

It can't have happened a few years ago, how could she still remember it?

Qi Yanxue said quietly, "If you can't remember, forget it. This isn't the only thing you can't remember anyway."

Zhu Wendong: “…”

Those who don’t know her would think she is a goldfish with only a seven-second memory.
