Xiao Ling speculated again that the entrance fee alone for entering Tianxia Commercial Bank to participate in the Lantern Festival auction would be a considerable expense.
Just when she was curious about whether Chu Yi had brought enough silver or some badges, the guards outside the venue just glanced at Chu Yi and respectfully let Chu Yi in.
Xiao Ling was stunned.
Is it that this Chu thief has such a strong aura, or has he entered the Tianxia Commercial Bank so many times that people can recognize at a glance that he is the current Minister of Personnel?
Full of surprise along the way, the two were enthusiastically led to a private room by the servants of Tianxia Trading Company.
Chu Yi glanced at the auction house and then ordered:
"I'll arrange for Room A on the second floor. As for the service... all services must be in place."
"Yes, yes, Minister Chu, please rest assured. I will arrange it right away. Please..."
After being taken upstairs by Chu Yi, Xiao Ling finally couldn't help it.
"Why do I think you come here quite often?"
"It's okay, it happens once or twice a month." Chu Yi glanced at the little empress and did not deny it.
Xiao Ling couldn't help but widen his eyes. Do you think it's okay to call me once or twice a month?
Speaking of this style, I'm afraid I have to count the expenses on my fingers when I come here.
But Xiao Ling didn't know what to say. She could only watch as the maid at the upstairs door took her and Chu Zei into a very luxurious private room.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a screen inlaid with gold threads. Beyond the screen is a huge bench.
The bench has very soft cushions and a backrest, and in front of it is a very elegant tea table, and the tea is the top-grade Wuyi Dahongpao.
There is a window directly opposite the tea table, and at this height, one can see everything on the auction table.
In terms of style, this layout is no less than the imperial study in the Purple Palace.
Chu Yi already felt like this place was his familiar home, so he walked over and sat down.
Then, he looked at Xiao Ling and waved.
"Sit down, you're welcome."
Xiao Ling: “…”
She followed him and walked up to Chu Yi. The knowledgeable little empress saw the luxury of the room and showed inappropriate restraint for the first time.
Chu Yi obviously didn't care too much. He simply put his arm around Xiao Ling's waist and, with a little force, made her sit on his lap.
"So...are there any treasures worth auctioning today?"
Xiao Ling, who was pulled into Chu Yi's arms, did not resist. He turned sideways naturally and asked this while supporting himself with his hands.
Chu Yi shook his head. "I don't know yet, but there will definitely be something good on days like this. Just be patient and wait."
Seeing this, Xiao Ling didn't know what to say and could only nod in agreement.
The auction had not yet started, and after a while, footsteps were heard outside the private room.
Then, five dancers walked in slowly.
They all have great looks, showing off their figures, and are dressed particularly coolly, revealing their little bellies and a pair of long, white legs.
As the melodious sound of piano rang out from one side of the private room, several dancers also began to dance gracefully.
Xiao Ling was stunned.
Soon, seeing these women who were dressed more casually, she immediately turned her head to look at Chu Yi with a look of jealousy on her face.
"Chu thief, could it be that this is the reason you came to Tianxia Trading Company?"
Chu Yi immediately denied it, "How is that possible? Your Majesty, how could you have such an idea? Although these dancers are beautiful, they are far inferior to those in Meixian Pavilion!"
"What?" Xiao Ling's eyes widened, his face filled with shame and anger. "You know so much about Meixian Pavilion? Haven't you been there many times?"
She was very familiar with the name of Meixian Pavilion.
Not a serious place!
"No, I never go to places like that. It's just rumors..."
Chu Yi smiled awkwardly, and Xiao Ling was obviously not satisfied with his tone.
Then, Chu Yi suddenly hugged the empress in front of him tighter.
Then she gently bit the corner of the little empress's rosy lips and said, "In my heart, Your Majesty is more beautiful, no matter where you are."
Xiao Ling's cheeks flushed with shame after being kissed so suddenly by Chu Zei. She glanced at the dancers dancing over there with a guilty look on her face.
Although she didn't mind Chu Zei kissing her, she still felt inexplicably shy in front of strangers.
She thought that Chu Zei would just make a little trouble like this, but she didn't expect Chu Zei to become more aggressive and didn't leave for a long time.
Xiao Ling felt a little embarrassed and wanted to resist, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, the Chu thief hugged him even tighter.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. These dancers are always very tight-lipped. Besides, they don't know your true identity. It's okay for us to be a little intimate."
After saying this, he bent down slightly, lifted up Xiao Ling's skirt, and placed the little empress's entire legs on the bench.
In this way, he was sitting on the chair, and Xiao Ling was sitting in his arms in a horizontal position.
Xiao Ling originally planned to resist, but seeing that Chu Ze had no other ideas, he accepted this posture.
After all, she could rest her legs against the Chu thief's body, which seemed quite comfortable.
Chu Yi's gaze was always on the little empress in front of him.
After all, no matter how beautiful the dancers behind are, they cannot compare to His Majesty in his arms.
Whether it is beauty or status, there is a world of difference between them.
Today, Xiao Ling was wearing a camellia red skirt, with precious flower ornaments and tassels on her head. Her demure expression revealed a rare elegance.
Just like a proud little princess in her prime.
Having gotten used to seeing the empress wearing a dragon robe these past few nights, Chu Yi suddenly felt that the empress in her ruqun seemed more pleasing to the eye.
Wearing women's clothing, he looked obviously more peaceful than when he wore the dragon robe.
In the intimacy, there was a noise on the stage downstairs.
The Tianxia Commercial Bank’s Lantern Festival auction has begun.
