Chapter 259: Patriarch Xiao becomes an auction item!



"Sir, please calm down. This is indeed an item from our auction house. Whether he is your father or not is not a consideration for us. If you want to take him away, you can bid him away!"

Naya still had a smile on her face. Two strong men in black blocked Xiao Shaoyan's way and prevented him from getting close.

Xiao Shaoyan's handsome face was filled with anger. He stared at the familiar face in the glass container, his eyes red and roaring angrily.

"That's ridiculous! You actually want me to bid for my father. You idiot, do you want me to skin you alive?"

Xiao Shaoyan fiercely pushed the burly man in black away, and regardless of Naya's obstruction, he stuck to the glass container, looking at Xiao Changyi who had a dull look in his eyes and was hugging him, and he finally couldn't help but burst out tears.

"Dad! I finally found you. Why are you here? Can you hear me? I'm Shao Yan. Wake up!"

Xiao Shaoyan slammed the glass container violently and shouted.

"Someone come and pull him down quickly."

Naya couldn't keep smiling anymore and quickly called for help.

"Who dares to touch him?"

Xiao Changji brought people over with a cold face and protected Xiao Shaoyan and the others.

"Where's Nok? I want to see him!"

The guests present were also talking about it.

"What on earth is going on? This is indeed the head of the Xiao family who has disappeared for two years. How could he appear here? That is the top wealthy Xiao family. What is Knock Manor planning to do?"

"Even the Xiao family's patriarch is being held captive here and auctioned off? Has Knock Manor gone mad? Will we be implicated next..."

"However, what is the bidding ability of the Xiao family's head? I'm a little curious!"

Seeing that the auction was messed up, Naya bit her red lips and looked worriedly at the VIP room on the platform.

Xiao Changji said coldly, "If Knok doesn't show up again, don't blame me for taking my eldest brother away on my own initiative. However... I will never let this go of Knok Manor's concealment of my eldest brother. Knok Manor must be prepared to bear the wrath of our Xiao family!"

Naya said in a panic, "Mr. Xiao, please wait a moment..."

"Hahahaha, why is Mr. Xiao so angry? Knok Manor has always had its own rules. Even the Xiao family cannot violate them."

Nok led his men over and said with a hearty laugh, "Besides, we wouldn't dare keep Patriarch Xiao privately. Someone brought him to the auction this time, and we're just middlemen."

Xiao Changji asked coldly, "Who is that person?"

"Everyone has signed a confidentiality agreement, so I can't reveal it. Besides, the current Xiao family head can no longer be described as human. His body... has been destroyed beyond recognition. He is holding on for a breath, waiting to be stripped of his soul and become the next ghost!"

Nok did not give in at all and still had a smile on his face.

"Haha, this is the first time I've heard of someone forcibly auctioning someone else's property without considering their wishes. I don't care who gave you the guts. This is my father, and I want to take him home. As for the rest... I don't care!"

Xiao Shaoyan's eyes were extremely cold, and he said with murderous intent, "Whoever stops me will die!"

“I’m naturally aware of the Xiao family’s rights, but this is Knock Manor!”

Nok smiled slightly, and there was a hint of ferocity in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Shaoyan.

"You're looking for death!"

Xiao Shaoyan walked forward coldly, wishing he could punch him.

Xiao Changji stopped him and said coldly, "The only person who can allow you to disregard the Xiao family's rights like this is probably someone from the Qin family in the VIP room upstairs."

After these words were spoken, there was a strange silence at the scene.

The corners of Nok's eyes twitched, and he spread his hands in a helpless manner, "I don't know what you're talking about. The Xiao family can come, so why can't the Qin family come? These are two completely different things. The main thing is that your Xiao family's life was sold to others. Why should you take it back for free?"

Nok winked at Naya, who nodded and took out a contract and handed it to Xiao Changji.

Xiao Changji looked at it suspiciously, and then... the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

"This is basically a contract to sell one's body."

Xiao Changji's voice was extremely cold. "It has Big Brother's signature and seal on it. It is indeed his handwriting."

"Why on earth is this happening? Why would Dad do this?"

Xiao Shaoyan obviously saw it as well. His cold arrogance was shattered. He took a step back in disbelief, his eyes full of confusion.

"Because he needs to be sheltered!"

A cold voice sounded, and Xiao Shaoyan turned around in surprise, and saw Wen Xi standing in front of the glass container, looking at Xiao Changyi carefully.

"Wen Xi?"

Xiao Shaoyan seemed to have seen a savior, "What did you see?"

"There are too many 'residents' in his body, at least five evil spirits crammed in there. Under such circumstances, it's already a great luck that he didn't explode and die. No... maybe it's not luck at all."

Wen Xi frowned and said, "Perhaps this is the reason why he hasn't come back in the past two years. These evil spirits are like time bombs that can skin you alive in a moment. He's doing this to protect you, Xiao Shaoyan!"

Xiao Shaoyan looked at Xiao Changyi absentmindedly and said sadly, "Why is this happening? Is he possessed? He could have asked me and Third Uncle for help, so why did he seek protection from others?"

"Why?"

Wen Xi scoffed, facing the VIP room, and said loudly, "You should ask the VIP upstairs, right? Mr. Qin Sheng!"

"Qin Sheng?"

The whole audience was in an uproar and looked upstairs.

Nuoke also frowned and said unhappily, "The Wen family's sister is so rude. Please don't bother Mr. Qin. Also, where did you come out from? Isn't that the backstage room? What were you doing there?"

Wen Xi ignored him and saw a figure slowly walking out from upstairs.

Wearing a well-ironed suit and with a smile on his face, he was indeed the smiling tiger Qin Sheng.

"Wen Xi, we meet again so soon. Didn't my brother send someone to protect you? Why? After arriving at Knock Manor, there was no trace of you? Didn't you catch up? What should I do? This is a good opportunity to be alone. I'm itching to go. Do you want to think about what I said last time and come with me?"

Qin Sheng looked at Wen Xi with a burning gaze.

Nok didn't expect Qin Sheng to have such an attitude towards Wen Xi, and was quite surprised.

"Boss Qin, you want to kidnap my sister in front of me, your brother. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Wen Jianghan unbuttoned his suit jacket with one hand and slowly walked in front of Wen Xi, blocking Qin Sheng's malicious gaze.

Qin Sheng's smile became a little more arrogant. "Why not? I, Qin Sheng, will get whoever or what I want sooner or later!"

Xiao Shaoyan asked coldly, "You made my dad sign this piece of waste paper?"

Qin Sheng ignored him.

Wen Xi glanced behind him and said darkly, "There's a ghostly aura surrounding this. The person behind you, Qin Sheng, was the one who insisted on signing it, right? Why are you cowering in the background?"
