All masks are designed to be ordinary, generic faces that you wouldn't remember if you just threw them into a crowd.
Qin Wanru said coldly, "I don't care about these things."
After saying that, he headed towards the auction house.
Zuan hurriedly put on his mask and chased after him.
Qin Wanru couldn't help but glance at him a few more times, wanting to remember his new face, otherwise she might not be able to find him if they got separated inside.
The two arrived outside the courtyard, but were quickly stopped by someone.

Just then, a frivolous whistle suddenly came from behind, followed by the lewd laughter of several men:
"Wow, that figure is absolutely amazing."
"I never expected to find such a gem in this place."
"Let's go and take a look."
...
Soon, several thugs quickened their pace and circled around to the two of them.
