Ye Mohan frowned and said seriously, "Go get an invitation to the auction. Go meet him tonight."
"Yes, Mr. President."
Lin Yi replied respectfully, then nodded and turned to leave.
The last meeting they arranged was stood up by the Remnant God, so this is their only chance. He has to make it happen no matter what.
Although the invitation was difficult to obtain, Lin Yi could still get it through his methods, though it would cost more money.
After Lin Yi left, Ye Mohan's eyes kept drifting to the phone he was flipping through, his brows furrowing from time to time, as if he was somewhat unhappy.
Just as he was about to put down his phone to attend to official business, his phone beeped with a message notification.
Ye Mohan's dark eyes lit up, and he immediately opened his phone. When he saw the message's nickname, a smile appeared on his lips.
"Mo Han, what are you busy with? Have you missed me?"
"I'm thinking about work. What about you?"
Ye Mohan's slender fingers flew across the phone screen, typing messages rapidly.
Over here, Jian Yixue, lying on the bed, was twitching her legs as she stared at the screen, looking incredibly relaxed and carefree.
I was overjoyed when I saw the reply.
"Me? Guess who I am."
Jian Yixue said with a touch of mischievousness, she suddenly wanted to see Ye Mohan's embarrassed expression.
Thinking about this, I couldn't help but laugh to myself.
On the other side, Ye Mohan received the message and, just as Jian Yixue had predicted, stared at his phone screen with a dark expression, wishing he could drag Jian Yixue over and spank her a few times to vent his anger!
"Are you itching for a beating~~~ Hmm?" Just as Ye Mohan finished editing his reply, he received another message.
I miss you, I miss you so much.
Upon seeing this, Ye Mohan's gloomy expression dissipated. He then scrolled through the edited reply and began editing anew.
"Two more days."
Jian Yixue was stunned for a few years after seeing the message, then grinned and said, "Yeah, two days."
"I have something to take care of tonight, you should get some rest."
Jian Yixue frowned, somewhat worried, "Is it dangerous?"
"It's nothing, I'm just going out to meet someone."
Jian Yixue was somewhat skeptical, but since she wasn't by Ye Mohan's side, she couldn't tell whether what he said was true or false.
With a furrowed brow, she instructed him, "Yes, be careful, don't go alone."
"Um."
Jian Yixue didn't tell Ye Mohan that she was going to the auction with Jiang Xuanjin tonight, mainly because she was afraid that Ye Mohan would overthink things and might do something reckless later.
She was safe here, although she didn't understand why Jiang Xuanjin had captured her but hadn't done anything to her, not even to threaten Ye Mohan.
But she really needs to find an opportunity to go out and see the world. Being trapped here with no freedom at all, and not even knowing where she is, is extremely disadvantageous for her.
If we go out, we might be able to find a chance to slip away. Staying here and waiting for that woman to come and rescue us is the only option we have.
When Jian Yixue woke up from her afternoon nap, she saw that it was already past 4 p.m. and realized that it was getting late. So she got up, washed up, and prepared to wait for Jiang Xuanjin to pick her up to attend the auction.
Not long after Jian Yixue finished washing up, she heard a knock on the door. Then the door was pushed open, and the person at the door was Jiang Xuanjin, who had come back to pick her up.
"Can we set off now?"
Jiang Xuanjin looked at the stunningly beautiful woman before him and asked softly.
Jian Yixue nodded, "Go outside and wait for me for a moment, I'll be right there."
Jiang Xuanjin glanced at her, hummed in agreement, and turned to leave.
After confirming that he had left several times, Jian Yixue went back to bed, hid her phone, and only went downstairs after making sure everything was alright.
Afterwards, the two left the Jiang family mansion together.
On the bus, Jian Yixue turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window, her brows furrowing slightly as she looked at the unfamiliar streets.
When she left the mansion with Jiang Xuanjin, she noticed that the mansion was a two-story classical courtyard. Since she sensed that there were many people watching from the shadows, she didn't bother to look around.
Looking at the unfamiliar street, she felt a little down. Then, noticing that it was still early, she turned to Jiang Xuanjin beside her, puzzled, and asked, "What time does the auction start?"
Jiang Xuanjin's gaze hadn't left Jian Yixue since he got into the car. Hearing her question, he explained, "It's still early. We'll start at 8 PM. I'll take you somewhere first."
Jian Yixue looked at Jiang Xuanjin with a puzzled expression, trying to glean something from his expression.
Jiang Xuanjin smiled warmly, their eyes meeting with loving eyes.
In the end, Jian Yixue was the first to give in, averting her gaze and turning to look out the window.
Never mind, never mind, I won't say it.
You'll know when we get there.
Why did I have to chime in? It made the atmosphere so awkward.
Seeing this, Jiang Xuanjin's smile hadn't completely faded; he still looked at Jian Yixue with doting affection, unwilling to look away. It seemed he was reminiscing about someone through her.
The car drove for a long time in the subtle atmosphere between the two, and then stopped in front of a rather grand private styling studio.
Jian Yixue looked up and saw the two big characters "Chu Yan" written on the sign. Then Jiang Xuanjin got out of the car first and stood by her door to open it for her.
Looking at the prince charming who seemed to have stepped out of a fairy tale, Jian Yixue was increasingly unable to figure out his purpose in keeping her here.
Then, under Jiang Xuanjin's gaze, she bent down and slowly got out of the car, and walked into the private styling studio called Chuyan with him.
"Master Jin, what brings you to our humble shop?"
As soon as she entered, Jian Yixue heard the voices coming from inside, and then looked at the person who had come in.
A man with a captivatingly feminine appearance, dressed in a floral shirt and black jeans, walked towards Jian Yixue and her companion, swaying his hips.
Jian Yixue glanced curiously at Jiang Xuanjin beside her, wondering how he knew such a reserved and brooding man.
"Stop talking nonsense and help her with her makeup."
Jiang Xuanjin ignored the man's question and went on to explain the purpose of his visit.
The man looked Jian Yixue up and down. He had to admit that she was a natural beauty, and if he were to carefully refine her features, she would probably be unmatched.
"Yes, Master Jin. Don't worry about leaving it to me. I will give you a beauty that is as beautiful as a fairy, and no one can compare to her."
Jiang Xuanjin turned to look at Jian Yixue beside him and said softly, "Go with him, I'll wait for you here."
Jian Yixue nodded indifferently, then followed the man to a seat not far away, letting him do whatever he wanted to her face.
Jiang Xuanjin, meanwhile, sat leisurely on the sofa in the reception area not far away, watching Jian Yixue from afar.
After a while, the man finished applying makeup to Jian Yixue.
The man looked at Jian Yixue in the mirror. Under his skillful touch, she was now incredibly beautiful, even surpassing the beauty of top-tier celebrities.
