Chapter 23 Candy

After the auction started, the closed door of the auction hall opened again and Xi Sen came in.

Seeing the manager of the auction hall coming hurriedly, he quickly raised his hand to stop him, signaling him not to make a sound, and then walked to the corner of the last row and sat down.

From this angle, you can clearly see the entire bidding process. Therefore, the real bidding experts sit in the last row.

Qin Tang was holding a mobile phone in his hand and looking at something. When he noticed someone coming to the empty seat next to him, he put it away.

"Are you also interested in S-level exotic beast crystals?"

"I happened to have some free time, so I came over to take a look." Xi Sen glanced at the whole place, noticed Gu Lian and Wen Zhaozhao, and said with a smile, "They're here to join in the fun."

"The little girl liked it, so she went to sit in the first row."

"Where is Miss Wen from?"

"Gu Lian said they were fellow travelers and met on the way. As for other things, the little girl seemed to say a lot, but she didn't actually reveal her own background at all."

"Is he a mutant? He looks like one."

"That should be it. I once tested her with my aura, but she acted as if she didn't feel anything at all. If she wasn't a superpower, she wouldn't be able to act so nonchalant. She's like a tiger pretending to be a kitten."

"Why is Harry going to row one as well?" Xi Sen looked at the people walking towards row one, playing with the bidding signs in his hand, and finally sat down next to Wen Zhaozhao.

Wen Zhaozhao rummaged through her shoulder bag and took out an exquisite little box containing small pieces of dried meat.

"It smells good. Can I try it?" Harry moved closer to Wen Zhaozhao and asked softly.

Wen Zhaozhao looked at him and said, "This is my snack. You'll get a stomachache if you eat it."

"I'm not afraid." Harry smiled charmingly, like a seductive hook. The women in the back row who saw his profile were all dazzled by desire.

Wen Zhaozhao thought for a moment and pulled out a piece of candy wrapped in colored paper from his small storage bag. "You should be able to eat this. It's made from the fruit of the Demonic Gourd Vine. The power contained in it is slowly released, so it won't cause too much of a shock all at once."

Harry took it, "You're the first woman to ever give me candy."

"I'm not a woman, I'm a baby girl." Wen Zhaozhao replied, completely rejecting the ambiguity thrown by Harry.

Gu Lian stretched out his hand, "You can't be partial, give me one too."

"Here." Wen Zhaozhao also gave him a candy, "Eat it before going to bed. Eat one-third or one-fifth first."

"Why?" Gu Lian asked, but he understood without Wen Zhaozhao's explanation. Because someone had already opened the package and eaten the candy...

His eyes changed instantly. Although he lowered his head in time, he still noticed that his golden brown eyes had turned deep black!

Wen Zhaozhao quickly set up an invisible barrier for him to prevent his evil spirit from leaking out.

And set up an illusion array. Except for her, to everyone else, Harry just sat there normally.

"Is this thing so powerful?"

“So listen to what people are saying.”

"I will obey you."

"Little Mushroom is so cute~"

“…”

"Little Mushroom?" Shen You just went to wash his hands. When he came back, he heard Wen Zhaozhao say that Little Mushroom was so well-behaved.

Wen Zhaozhao pointed at Gu Lian and said, "He is Little Mushroom."

Shen You's expression became quite meaningful, "Brother, a man can't be petty!"

Gu Lian's face darkened.

"Flame-patterned Xuan Nan root pipe, No. 55 bids 1 million, is there a higher bid?" the auctioneer shouted excitedly.

Wen Zhaozhao raised the sign in his hand.

The auctioneer shouted: "Number 3 bids 1.1 million——"

Shen You looked at the items on the display stand and asked, "Zhao Zhao, why did you buy a pipe?"

Wen Zhaozhao replied: "Give it to someone. I have an uncle who likes to hold a cigarette in his mouth."

"Number 18, bid 1.2 million." Wen Zhaozhao looked at Number 18.

He was stunned to see that it was the man possessed by the luck-borrowing demon. Now he looked no longer as hypoglycemic as before. He was wearing a sophisticated suit, gold-rimmed glasses, and a diamond watch on his wrist.

Wen Zhaozhao raised the sign again and shouted, "1.3 million."

The man finally noticed Wen Zhaozhao, took the bidding card in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and pressed it.

Xi Sen raised the sign in his hand, "4 million."

Wen Zhaozhao turned around and looked over. "Follow."

The auctioneer called out, "Number 3 bids 4.1 million."

Xi Sen continued: "5 million."

Wen Zhaozhao said to the auctioneer, "I don't want it anymore."

The auctioneer smiled and continued, "Number 9 bids 5 million. Is there anyone who can bid higher?"

"5 million once, 5 million twice, deal - congratulations to bidder No. 9!" shouted the auctioneer.

A staff member came forward and said a few words to the auctioneer.

The auctioneer nodded, then carefully wrapped the pipe and handed it to the staff.

The staff handed it to Wen Zhaozhao, "Miss Wen, this is yours."

"Give it to me?" Wen Zhaozhao was surprised, then looked at Xi Sen.

He just smiled at her and saluted gracefully as a gentleman, indicating that it was indeed a gift for her.

Shen You was surprised. "Zhao Zhao, do you know the mayor of Rubet City?"

"We exchanged a few words." Wen Zhaozhao put the pipe into his bag and looked at Harry beside him.

Finding that he had almost recovered and should be able to control the magic of the candy, he quietly put away the barrier and the illusion array.

"What should I call you?" Harry's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of hidden excitement.

"Just call me Zhaozhao." Wen Zhaozhao replied.

"Is that candy for sale?"

"I only have two in my pocket. One for you and one for him."

Gu Lian quickly put away her candy and said, "I won't sell it."

"...Zhao Zhao, where did this candy come from?"

"My father made it for my mother, but she didn't like it, so he stopped making it. These two are the ones I saved by living frugally." In fact, she didn't like to eat them either, so she took two and kept them in a small storage bag.

"Then can I ask your father to help make some? Price is not an issue."

"If my mother doesn't like it, my father won't do anything."

Suddenly, the auction hall began to become restless.

Wen Zhaozhao saw the staff put the finale item, the S-level exotic beast crystal, on the display stand.

The bidder, who was originally a little confused, immediately became alert.

Shen You couldn't help but rub his hands, "I'm going to take action."

"Looking at the atmosphere, it might be difficult to shoot." Wen Zhaozhao said to Shen You.

Harry saw Wen Zhaozhao and Shen You talking in a friendly manner, so he asked, "Who is this?"

"My friend Shen You." Wen Zhaozhao replied, and then introduced Shen You, "Harry, we just met."

"We felt like old friends from the moment we met, like family." Harry hinted to Wen Zhaozhao that he and she were both demons.

Wen Zhaozhao curled the corners of her lips and remained silent.

Harry felt the endless pure magic power in his body and became even more interested in Wen Zhaozhao.

As a man, Shen You knew Harry's eyes at the moment very clearly. It was the look of a hunter looking at his prey!

The elevator door outside the auction hall opened, and several people came out. They were wearing masks and holding guns.

One of the people's cell phone rang. It was a text message from the funny ghost - [Action Start!]
