"Well, okay. Thank you City Lord Lin for your hospitality today. We will take our leave first." The young man called Junior Brother Zhou responded and left with the other two.
"Haha, nephew, how about we go to the study and talk in detail?"
…
Gu Yuan was very happy today; he had never been happier. As the saying goes, when good things happen, people feel refreshed. It was true; the ancients were right. Gu Yuan changed his slovenly image and put on his latest clothes.
Gu Yuan stood in front of the large water tank outside the wooden house, carefully examining himself. His black hair casually draped over his shoulders, his face somewhat thin, but he looked neat and energetic. "Although this white robe is a little yellowed, it doesn't affect my handsomeness at all."
Today he planned to check out the market and see the quality of the healing medicines available. Of course, the most important thing was whether he could make a profit from these one hundred healing pills. After all, he had a golden finger, so it was time to improve his life...
Tianxuan Auction House is the largest auction house in Beastmaster City, and this is Gu Yuan’s destination.
At this moment, Gu Yuan looked up at the magnificent building in front of him. He had no qualifications to enter here before, but things would be different from today onwards.
He shook his head, cast aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, and was about to go in, but was stopped by two guards at the door.
"Stop! Please show your ID card." said one of the guards.
"ID card?" Gu Yuan was stunned. What ID card?
Seeing Gu Yuan's bewildered expression, the two of them showed a hint of disdain on their faces. He didn't even know his ID card? Of course, looking at this poor guy, how could he be considered someone who could enter the auction house?
"Go away, don't stand here! You're delaying others from entering the auction house." The guard drove Gu Yuan away.
"What the hell?"
Gu Yuan's face darkened instantly. Damn it, am I being despised?
"What? You can't enter without an ID card?" Gu Yuan said coldly.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? You can't get in without an ID card! Hurry up, the people behind you are still coming in!" The guard raised his voice, attracting the attention of everyone around him. The guard felt a little proud of being so watched. Who said guards are of low status? I'm stopping you lowly guys right now!
In the crowd, a young maid was supporting a young girl. "Miss, there's someone ahead who didn't have an ID card and was stopped. It's so windy here, why don't we go in first?"
"Ahem, Lan'er, why don't we go back? It's so noisy here." The girl's face was unusually pale and she looked a little weak.
"Miss, we have finally come out, let's go in and take a look. What if we can find the right medicine?" Lan'er said hurriedly when she heard that her young lady was going back.
"Oh, it's not that easy. I see that you just want to watch the fun, right?" The girl poked Lan'er's little head and said with a smile.
Lan'er stuck out her tongue and giggled, "Alright, alright, let's go in first!"
In front of the door, the guard was still in a stalemate with Gu Yuan.
"Here, this is my lady's ID card." Lan'er held a card between her fingers and handed it to the guard.
"It's Qingka! Miss, please come in." The guard changed his arrogant look and immediately nodded and said.
Gu Yuan stood aside, looking at the girl supported by the maid. Whose family is this girl from? She is quite pretty, with the same morbid beauty as Lin Daiyu, Gu Yuan thought secretly.
Perhaps she noticed Gu Yuan's gaze, the girl turned to look at Gu Yuan. She smiled at him and nodded slightly.
Gu Yuan was stunned. Was she greeting him? He turned around and looked around. He found that there was no one around him because he was blocked by the guards. Only then did he confirm that the morbid beauty was greeting him.
"Miss, let's go in." Lan'er touched her mistress with her arm and said.
"Oh, okay." The girl turned her head and responded.
But just as she stepped through the door, she suddenly stopped and looked at the guard. "I remember Qingka can bring two people in, right?"
"Um, yes, miss, what do you want?" the guard replied quickly.
"Let him come in, he is my friend." The girl pointed at Gu Yuan and said.
"Hmm? Miss, you..."
"What? What's the problem?" the girl raised her voice.
"No problem, no problem! You're in luck, kid over there! This lady wants you to go in with her," the guard shouted, pointing at Gu Yuan. Are you kidding? These two don't look like they're on the same level. How could they be her friends? But since she said so, he had no choice but to let them in.
"Huh?"
Gu Yuan let out a light exclamation. He didn't expect this girl to be so enthusiastic. In fact, he had a way to get in even without the so-called ID card, but since he could get in, he was too lazy to use other methods.
Gu Yuan approached the girl and entered the hall with the two of them. "Ahem, my name is Gu Yuan. Thank you for what I just said."
"I am Lin Wan'er, it's just a small favor. Thank you for your courtesy, Mr. Gu." Lin Wan'er said with a smile.
"It seems that the girl is not in good health?" Gu Yuan looked at the frail Lin Wan'er and asked with some concern.
"You are not in good health, your whole family is not in good health! Humph! Miss, let's go, let's ignore him!" Lan'er on the side was indignant, and supported Lin Wan'er and walked towards the auction hall.
"Hey, hey, hey, Lan'er, what are you doing?"
"Miss, that guy doesn't look like a good person..."
Gu Yuan froze in his place, not coming to his senses until the two figures disappeared from his sight. What the hell? What did I say?
