"Interesting, this is really interesting."
Jiang Haitian's incredibly high-class demeanor instantly aroused Leng Qingcheng's even stronger interest.
I thought this guy was already quite extraordinary during the day in the Nightmare Palace, but the scene now is even more explosive.
A strange light appeared in Song Yanran's clear eyes, and she simply sat by the window and silently watched Jiang Haitian.
At this moment, Yu Xiyan was carrying a tea tray to serve tea to Jiang Haitian.
"Stop right there! What are you doing?!"
One of the wild sons immediately raised his hand to stop Yu Xiyan from getting closer.
Yu Xiyan glanced at the gloomy-faced old woman in the distance, then immediately lowered her head and whispered, "I'm here to serve tea to the guests."
The wild son turned around and glanced at Jiang Haitian.
But Jiang Haitian was eating a magical apple, showing no other reaction whatsoever.
The wild son nodded to himself, then took out a silver needle and stirred it a few times in the teacup.
After picking it up and confirming that the silver needle hadn't turned black, he immediately stepped aside and said, "Go in. Remember to respect my father. As long as you make him comfortable, you'll get your share of the benefits."
"Um."
At this moment, Yu Xiyan was already trying her best to play the role of a servant.
As long as she doesn't experience the same humiliation as Young Master Bai, she'll accept whatever fate asks of her.
After walking to Jiang Haitian's side, she carefully placed the tea tray on the coffee table, then poured a cup of tea and personally handed it to Jiang Haitian.
"Vice-Commander Jiang, please have some tea."
As a result, Jiang Haitian completely ignored her, and his eyes, hidden behind sunglasses, made it impossible to discern his emotions.
This made Yu Xiyan feel very embarrassed, but she still bit her lower lip tightly to endure the discomfort and continued to serve tea.
She had discovered that although Jiang Haitian had the air of a nouveau riche, his temperament and demeanor were far superior to those of the other guests who were acting like a bunch of demons.
Moreover, as long as she was by his side, Yu Xiyan felt a long-lost and familiar sense of security.
If I stay by his side, then maybe I can get through tonight's ordeal.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Jiang Haitian finally spoke: "Aren't you tired of this?"
"I'm not tired. Please have some tea, Vice-Chairman Jiang."
Yu Xiyan suppressed her inner humiliation and lowered her head to move the tea closer to Jiang Haitian.
Jiang Haitian took the tea, casually poured it on the ground, and said, "The tea is cold."
"I'll change right away."
Yu Xiyan immediately went to pour tea for Jiang Haitian again.
Watching Yu Xiyan's retreating figure, Jiang Haitian's lips curled into a smug smile.
The auction finally began when the second cup of tea was served to Jiang Haitian.
On the high platform, a master of ceremonies with a mustache and triangular eyes, holding a megaphone, announced loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, the monthly auction of Tianbao Pavilion is now officially beginning!"
I've already given you all gifts, and I imagine you're all old acquaintances of mine, so I won't say any more.
Before the auction officially begins, please allow us to first address our esteemed Empress Demon Breath.
And the Ziwei Empress from the Longhan Celestial Dynasty was given the highest respect.
The next moment, almost everyone stood up at the same time and shouted loudly in unison towards the second-floor reception building: "May the Empress bestow blessings upon us, and may we live as long as the heavens!"
Jiang Haitian, however, remained defiant and showed no intention of standing up.
Feeling the completely different aura surrounding her, Yu Xiyan couldn't help but purse her lips.
Recalling the bustling scene when three thousand disciples from all corners of the world paid tribute to Chang'an, what a glorious era that was!
Back then, I didn't have to worry about anything at all.
But now, even whether she can preserve her innocence is in doubt.
Song Yanran simply smiled faintly at the scene and waved gently in acknowledgment.
For her, these were already too many experiences.
Being too hypocritical and overly ingratiating will eventually become tiresome. All you need to do is remain calm and composed.
Leng Qingcheng raised her wine glass in response to the crowd.
At the same time, she glanced at Jiang Haitian, who remained motionless on the sofa, her eyes filled with even greater interest.
After the cheers subsided, Qian Li immediately announced, "Alright, the auction is officially open. The first item to be auctioned today is..."
"One hundred thousand spirit stones!"
Before Qian Li could finish speaking, Jiang Haitian immediately raised his paddle and made a bid.
Everyone was instantly stunned.
You don't even know what this thing is, and you haven't even set a reserve price, yet you've already started bidding?
Damn it, don't you know the rules?
Screw your price.
Jiang Haitian, however, leisurely played with the magic bead in his palm, completely ignoring the strange looks from those around him.
Qian Li's lips twitched, and his gaze toward Jiang Haitian was extremely complicated.
This powerful figure in Demon City was a notorious madman. In his eyes, no rules were rules, but just a piece of waste paper.
He didn't know whether he should remind the father to follow some rules.
"What are you standing there for? If you have the guts, raise the price, or this round is mine."
Seeing that Qian Li on the stage had not made a move for a long time, Jiang Haitian spoke up again to remind him.
"Vice-Commander Jiang, would you like to take a look at what's on the auction list?"
"What's there to look at? Do I need to use my eyes to look when I buy things? That would be too tiring!"
"Just buy what you want. I'll only ask if it's enough; if not, I'll add more."
That's outrageously extravagant!
Everyone present couldn't help but sigh.
Left with no other choice, Qian Li had to reveal the first item.
It is a blood coral, a specialty of the South China Sea Jiaolong clan. Placing it in a room can enhance the absorption efficiency of spiritual energy in a small area. Its auction market price is around 30,000 spirit stones.
