A group of bodyguards, chatting amongst themselves, suddenly rushed into the hall, startling the disciples registering.
"My fellow disciples, what brings you here? Why are you rushing in so urgently?"
The bodyguard completely ignored him and instead started flipping through the order forms.
Upon seeing Yuan Shi of Hanyun County, he was so excited he almost jumped for joy.
They grabbed the disciple who had registered and kept asking him questions.
"Did you see what those two kids looked like?"
The disciple nodded and said, "I saw it!"
"If you see me, hurry up and tell me, what do I look like?"
After thinking for a moment, the disciple described Qin Luo and Wu Hua's appearances in detail.
"The slightly older one has a big scar on his face and dark skin, which looks a bit scary. The younger one is much cuter, with big, bright, and intelligent eyes that make you want to get closer and touch his little face!"
Upon hearing this, a group of bodyguards lamented that they had missed out...
After leaving the escort agency, Qin Luo and Wu Hua headed straight for Wangu.
Chaos reigned before the gates of Wangu, with servants and guards scrambling to clear the mess.
Wang Yue and his companions were also helping to lift up the overturned carriages one by one.
The head steward is gathering guards to capture this group of thieves.
Qin Luo had just arrived at the entrance of the Eternal Gate carrying Wu Hua when they recognized her.
The head steward quickly stepped forward and bowed to the two men.
"Young masters, you've finally arrived! We received the portraits months ago, and everyone has been eagerly awaiting your arrival! The area outside is a mess, let's go inside and talk!"
He then led Qin Luo and Wu Hua into the auction house, and the two of them did not refuse and followed him inside.
Upon seeing the two arrive, Wang Yue couldn't help but show his excitement.
Just as I was about to go up and say hello, I heard clearly who the two people were!
Not only him, but also his companions, all stared wide-eyed in disbelief!
Some people even deliberately went up to tease Wang Yue.
"Hey kid, did you already know that he was the young master of the Wan family?"
Some people joined in the commotion.
"Is that even a question? He must have known all along, otherwise why would he always appear in front of those two? He even waited for them at the stairwell this morning. It must have been premeditated!"
Some people even came to offer advice, hoping to take advantage of the situation.
"Wang Yue, since you're so familiar with Young Master Wangu, why don't you go and talk to her and ask the head steward to stop lowering our prices?"
At this moment, Wang Yue couldn't hear anything. His mind was filled with the head steward's obsequious smile and the repeated "Young Master!"
He was confused again. Could it be that last night was just his hallucination?
He was originally a man; it was just that I imagined him to be a woman.
Ignoring the noise around me, I quietly closed my eyes and recalled the scene from last night.
A moment later, he opened his eyes firmly. "Are you sure you didn't see wrong?"
Qin Luo is a woman; her fair skin and flat Adam's apple prove that she is a girl!
He laughed as he thought about it, then his face fell again.
She's the young master of Wangu, no! She's the young lady of Wangu!
As for myself? Although I have some meager assets, compared to Wan Gu, it's nothing more than a drop in the ocean!
How can I win the heart of this beauty? He frantically ruffled his hair.
His companions watched as he suddenly went mad, and none of them dared to step forward to admonish him.
After all, they had all found the same treasure at the same time, and didn't have any deep friendship.
Naturally, I won't be troubled or worried because of him!
They just wanted to sell the treasure, split the money, and then go their separate ways!
As soon as Qin Luo and Wu Hua arrived at the back hall, they began to ask the head steward what had happened.
The head steward didn't hide anything and explained everything clearly.
"A few months ago, the merchants who have been supplying the auction house suddenly wrote to us! They said they had found a treasure deep in the mountains and would be sending it over soon!"
Qin Luo pointed in the direction of the auction house entrance.
"Were those the merchants who were just outside the door?"
The head steward nodded heavily.
"Exactly! I thought it was a good thing, so I had them bring it over to have an appraiser examine it. If it really was a treasure, we could auction it off at our shop! Who knew that it would be robbed by a group of thieves as soon as it was delivered to our door this morning!"
Hearing his affirmative answer, Qin Luo felt relieved.
"Uncle, don't worry, nothing's stolen! Those carriages were just a smokescreen. My son and I are staying at the same inn as them. Thieves attacked last night, but they seemed so calm and collected. They must have hidden the item very well. I'm sure they'll be coming in to ask you about the price soon!"
Sure enough, no sooner had she finished speaking than Wangyue entered with her entourage.
First, they politely bowed to Qin Luo, Wu Hua, and the head steward.
Then he took out a cloth bag from his pocket, spread it out on the table, and opened it layer by layer.
Wu Hua's expression changed. As soon as she took out the cloth bag, she sensed a familiar feeling. After opening it, she was completely certain.
Seeing that its expression was off, Qin Luo quickly asked in his mind, "What's wrong, little one!"
Wu Hua stared intently at the cloth bag, silently replying to her in her heart.
"That's the silk of a mountain spider, but judging from its size, this mountain spider must have just been born. It must have encountered some danger and used its last bit of energy to weave this little bit of silk!"
Qin Luo was a little worried upon hearing this, after all, the newborn beast didn't understand anything.
If you encounter a kind-hearted person, at least you won't go astray.
If you encounter someone with malicious intentions, you might become a tool in their hands to kill.
Although she was anxious, she still tried to comfort Wu Hua in her heart.
"Little one, don't worry! I'll go find that big guy and ask him what's going on!"
