Chapter 41 Auction House 1
The knock on the door is very polite. After knocking three times, they wait for the distinguished guest in the room to speak. If there is no response after one minute, they will continue to knock.
Hearing the knock on the door, Ye Mang and his personal guards Zhao Kun and Xu Li stopped laughing at Yan Rufeng. They exchanged glances and frowned slightly.
Who will it be at this time?
Ye Heng’s rule when he went to Jiuchen was: don’t disturb unless necessary.
His box has always been quiet and few people dare to disturb it.
"Who?" Ye Mang asked in a deep voice, his hand subconsciously pressing the energy gun at his waist.
A gentle and respectful voice immediately came from outside the door, the volume was neither too loud nor too low, just enough for the people in the box to hear clearly:
"Excuse me, Patriarch Ye, we are the staff of Jiuchen Auction House. We have an urgent matter and need to see Patriarch Ye for confirmation. Please allow us to come in and answer your questions."
There was obvious caution in his voice, which not only explained his identity but also pointed out the urgency of the matter, but there was no hint of urging. It was obvious that he had received rigorous training.
Ye Mang looked at Ye Heng, waiting for his instructions.
Ye Heng paused holding the teacup, then nodded in agreement. He glanced at Mo Yun running around the room and whispered, "Come back."
Mo Yun understood the instruction and slid back to Ye Heng's feet, rubbing his trouser legs. His golden-brown eyes kept glancing towards the door, full of excitement.
Ye Mang released his hand from the energy gun and said loudly to the outside of the door, "Come in."
The door was gently pushed open, and two waiters in dark grey uniforms stood at the doorway, their hands folded in front of their stomachs, their heads slightly lowered, their eyes fixed on the tips of their shoes, not daring to look up.
"Meeting Patriarch Ye."
Yan Rufeng finally got up from the sofa, brushed off the nonexistent dust on his clothes, and muttered quietly, "It turns out it's someone from the auction house. I was so scared."
Ye Mang and the others resumed their standing position, staring sharply at the waiter at the door, remaining highly alert.
After getting consent, two waiters came in and closed the door behind them, their movements so gentle that there was almost no sound.
When the door was completely closed, the two were about to take a few steps closer when they caught a glimpse of Mo Yun's tail gently sweeping across the floor. The dark green scales shone coldly under the light.
Although Mo Yun's attention was not on them, an invisible deterrent emanated from his body, like an invisible net covering them.
The two were so frightened that they held their breath in an instant, their feet froze in place, their brains froze for a moment, and even their bodies were trembling slightly.
The only sound in the air was the sound of Mo Yun's tail sweeping the floor, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant for a moment.
Ye Mang frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Are you mute? Isn't there something wrong?"
This scolding was like a wake-up call, bringing the two men back to their senses.
They looked at each other and saw fear in each other's eyes, but thinking of their job responsibilities, they still forced themselves to muster up their courage, took a deep breath, and pretended to be calm as they walked to the table where Ye Heng was sitting.
The waiter walking in front had beads of sweat on his forehead. He quickly wiped them with his hand, his voice trembling slightly, "Master Ye, Master Ye, I'm sorry to bother you."
He paused again, as if realizing that stuttering was actually quite rude, so he quickly adjusted himself and spoke again. Although his tone was filled with nervousness, he tried very hard to maintain professionalism:
"Well, a gentleman just now at the entrance presented your family head badge and wanted to enter the auction house. According to regulations, the use of this special authority requires your confirmation, so we dared to come here to ask for your permission."
After he finished speaking, both of them lowered their heads, their bodies slightly stiff. They were afraid that Mo Yun would suddenly attack them, and they were also worried that their report would make Ye Heng dissatisfied. Their faces were full of embarrassment and fear, but they still forced themselves to wait for a response.
Ye Heng put down the teacup in his hand, and his knuckles knocked lightly on the rim of the white porcelain cup, and a hint of understanding flashed across his eyes.
Ye Heng knew exactly who he had given the badge to, and then he frowned slightly.
Aren't we just going to the Science and Technology Museum? Why are we here?
When Ye Heng raised his eyes, the emotion had long since faded. He looked at the two waiters with a calm gaze, and there was no trace of emotion in his voice: "It was my instruction. Bring him here."
"Yes!" The two waiters seemed to have all the tension in their bodies drained away. They almost straightened their backs and responded. When they bowed, their movements were half a second faster than when they came.
When he turned around and left, his steps were so brisk as if he was walking on the wind, and even the movement of closing the door was hasty with a sense of relief, as if he was escaping from some terrible place.
The air in the box seemed to grow heavier the moment the door closed.
Ye Mang subconsciously leaned forward, the heels of his boots making a very light sound on the carpet, and then he stopped suddenly.
The two guards beside him were signaling to each other with their peripheral vision. The one on the left raised his eyebrows slightly, while the one on the right shook his head imperceptibly. The three of them exchanged glances, creating silent sparks in the air.
"The badge of the head of the family..." Zhao Kun's Adam's apple moved, but he didn't say the second half of the sentence "How could it be given to outsiders?", but his fingertips unconsciously rubbed the holster on his waist.
As a personal guard who had followed Ye Heng for ten years, he knew better than anyone the importance of that badge.
During the family sacrifice last year, the eldest elder of the Ye family wanted to borrow Ye Heng to maintain order but was coldly rejected by Ye Heng. Now, a stranger can enter with a badge. This is simply a fantasy.
Xu Li couldn't help but nudged Ye Mang lightly with his elbow, the corners of his mouth moved, and he silently mouthed the word "who".
Ye Mang quickly glanced at Ye Heng's expression, intending to tell him not to guess blindly, as he would know soon, but his gaze suddenly stopped.
Ye Heng was looking down at the dark clouds at his feet, his fingertips carelessly stroking across the dark clouds' scales, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, as fast as a stone thrown into the lake, disappearing without a trace as soon as ripples appeared.
Ye Mang's pupils shrank slightly and he subconsciously held his breath.
He had followed Ye Heng the longest and had seen the patriarch angry, bewildered, and cold as ice, but he had never seen such a gentle smile.
This smile shocked him as much as an outsider entering with a badge. His fingertips clenched his gun belt tightly, and even a thin layer of sweat seeped out of his back.
The three of them stood shoulder to shoulder, their backs straight, their faces showing a trained sternness, but their gazes were filled with uncontrollable curiosity.
Could the person who could make the Patriarch break so many exceptions be a member of the royal family? Or a hidden ally? Or even... a relative the Patriarch had never mentioned?
Countless speculations swirled in their minds, and the carpet at their feet was almost worn out by their boots, but no one dared to speak first.
Yan Rufeng, on the other hand, was like a firecracker that had been suppressed for a long time. He suddenly rushed to Ye Heng's side and slapped his hands on the table.
"Hey, hey, hey! Tell me, who is this person?"
His eyes were wide open, sparkling with gossip:
"You're allowed to give away the Patriarch's badge so easily. Even your nephews don't get this kind of treatment, right? Tell me! Is there something fishy going on?"
Ye Heng didn't even raise his eyelids, and tapped lightly on the wall of the cup with his fingertips. The light "tap, tap, tap" sound and the rustling sound of Mo Yun's tail sweeping across the floor blended together wonderfully.
As if knowing that Lin Yao was about to come, Mo Yun became even more excited, and his tail took the initiative to wrap around Ye Heng's arm.
Ye Heng's smile had long since faded, and he patted Mo Yun's tail without changing his expression: "Be patient."
He was talking to Mo Yun and also responding to Yan Rufeng.
Yan Rufeng also understood instantly and rushed to sit on the sofa to Ye Heng's left: "Okay! I'll wait here and see the man's true face!"
As he spoke, he stared at the door without blinking, as if he was waiting for something big to happen.
Ye Mang, Xu Li and Zhao Kun, who were standing aside, still maintained a straight posture, like three sculptures.
But if you look closely, you can find that Xu Li's shoulders moved slightly, as if he was adjusting a posture that would allow him to hear more clearly;
Zhao Kun's lips, which were originally tightly pursed, now relaxed a little; Ye Mang's fingers on his hand, which was placed at his side, curled up unconsciously.
Although the three of them still looked straight ahead, their slightly trembling ears revealed that they were listening with their ears pricked up.
Ye Heng looked at the crowds of people in the auction hall leisurely, wondering what he was thinking.
But the hand under the table, stroking Mo Yun's tail, moved a little quickly, with a hint of imperceptible expectation.
For a long time, there was no movement outside the door.
Yan Rufeng was getting a little impatient, tapping the table with his fingers and muttering softly, "Why hasn't he come yet? This speed is too slow..."
As soon as he finished speaking, two voices talking were heard outside the door, getting closer and closer, becoming clearer and clearer.
Mo Yun instantly became excited, flicked his tail, and rushed to the door in a flash, constantly spitting out his tongue at the door, as if to welcome it.
Ye Mang, Xu Li and Zhao Kun's bodies tensed instantly as they stared at the door. Although their faces remained expressionless, they could no longer conceal the curiosity in their eyes.
Yan Rufeng also stood up suddenly, stretching his neck like a duck, staring at the door panel intently, afraid of missing something.
Ye Heng withdrew his gaze and looked towards the door, with a very faint, almost invisible curve at the corner of his mouth.
The door rang three times.
-
After waiting for about ten minutes, there was a gentle knock on the door of the small room, and Lin Yao said "Come in".
Then the door was opened politely, and the person standing at the door was not the waiter who had brought him here before.
The man was wearing a dark-colored brocade robe with dark patterns and the ancient Chinese character "宸" embroidered on the collar in silver. It was completely different from the uniform of an ordinary waiter and exuded a calm demeanor.
"Sir, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. My surname is Qin and my given name is Yue. I'm the manager here." Qin Yue bowed slightly.
His attitude was respectful but not flattering, and his tone was calm but apologetic: "Patriarch Ye has specifically instructed that you please move to the first-class box. I will lead the way for you."
As he spoke, his hands hung naturally at his sides, his fingertips neatly trimmed. Compared with the waiter's tense posture before, he seemed more relaxed and decent, obviously someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
Lin Yao stood up and nodded: "Thank you, Manager Qin."
"You're welcome, sir." Qin Yue stepped aside to make way and led Lin Yao out. He watched Lin Yao's gaze gently, ready to respond at any time.
Step out of the small room and turn right for only five meters, and you will reach the auction house.
Lin Yaocai discovered that the entire auction hall was a huge circular building with a dome like an inverted sky, embedded with tens of thousands of light beads simulating stars.
It is slowly rotating into the trajectory of a nebula, and as the faint light flows, it seems as if you are really under the starry sky.
"The star lamp beads in this dome are made of fluorescent stone. Each one can emit light independently, and the trajectory is controlled by the central control system." Qin Yue introduced immediately when he saw Lin Yao walking and looking up.
The circular design allows guests at every location to clearly see the auction table, and the area corresponding to your badge has the best view."
Lin Yao's gaze moved down from the dome and landed on the high platform in the center of the ring.
It was a circular platform with a surface as smooth as a mirror and a faint cold glow. It was surrounded by a transparent protective shield that emitted weak energy fluctuations.
"That's the auction table. The table top is made of deep-sea cold jade. It can maintain a constant low temperature to prevent the auction items from being damaged by temperature changes." Qin Yue introduced following Lin Yao's gaze.
"The surrounding protective shield is constructed using the latest energy technology. It can block external interference while allowing everyone in the audience to clearly see the items on the stage. It can also magnify the details of the auction items through holographic projection and project them onto the screens in every seat."
Lin Yao heard this and asked: "Every seat?"
"Yes, look at the armrest!" Qin Yue gestured to Lin Yao to look at the open seating area on the first floor.
Quite a few people were already sitting on the circularly arranged seats, and whispered conversations were spreading along the arc.
There is a silver button embedded in the armrest in front of each person, with fine lines engraved on the surface of the button, quietly waiting for the auction to begin.
"These buttons are connected to the auction system. After the auction starts, pressing the button will activate the floating screen. Customers can press the button to release the screen when needed." Qin Yue explained.
“The screen will float in front of the guests, and the details of the auction items will be displayed synchronously. Guests can also manually zoom in to view specific parts.
This design is to save space and not take up extra space. This is the system we upgraded last year and it is very popular with customers."
Qin Yue finished introducing the floating screen: "Sir, we are going upstairs, watch your step! This way, please!"
The moonstone stairs are covered with soft carpets, where tranquility and comfort coexist.
Qin Yue was one step ahead of Lin Yao. "The seats on the first floor are all numbered and arranged in an open area. Guests with ordinary invitations are here."
The two walked up the circular staircase to the second floor.
The semi-enclosed boxes here are distributed in a circular pattern, with black velvet curtains hanging down to the windowsill, leaving only a few inches of space. You can vaguely see the figures swaying inside, but you can't make out their faces clearly.
"The private room on the second floor is semi-enclosed. The black velvet curtains can block the outside view, and the guests inside can see the entire venue clearly through the special glass." Qin Yue explained.
"You need a special invitation to enter here, and the opening and closing of the curtains can be adjusted from inside the box."
As they were talking, in a private room on the second floor that neither of them had noticed.
A corner of the curtain was lifted, and Su Qing's face was pressed against the glass. The surprise on her face almost overflowed, and her mouth was slightly open, as if she had seen a ghost.
Su Qing tugged at Ye Lang's arm, her voice changing tone: "Mr. Lang, he...wasn't he stopped because he didn't have an invitation?"
Ye Lang ignored Su Qing's sudden shrinkage of pupils. He stared at Qin Yue who was accompanying Lin Yao. This woman didn't know Qin Yue, but that didn't mean he didn't know him.
In the entire Jiuchen Auction House, apart from the boss, Qin Yue has the most power. On weekdays, not to mention asking him to lead the way in person, even a meeting requires an appointment in advance.
At this moment, Qin Yue was bowing slightly, and his attitude towards Lin Yao was unusually respectful. Judging from the direction he was heading, he was clearly heading to the third floor!
Then Ye Lang's eyes were fixed on Lin Yao's back, and his brows were twisted into knots.
Only those with top-level invitations or family head-level badges can enter the third floor. Lin Yao obviously has neither, but why?
While the two were lost in thought, Lin Yao and the other person had already reached the entrance to the third floor.
Completely different from the first and second floors, the entrance to the third floor is not a simple passage, but a heavy alloy door with a security sentry in black combat uniform standing on each side of the door.
They stood as tall as pine trees, with no expression on their faces. Their eyes were as sharp as eagles, scanning every person who approached. A strong aura of murderous intent emanated from their bodies. They were obviously elites who had experienced actual combat.
Even when he saw that the person coming was Qin Yue, the sentry on the left just raised his chin coldly, his voice without a trace of warmth: "Pass card."
This attitude was no different from that towards other people, and it was not softened at all because of Qin Yue's identity.
Qin Yue was already accustomed to this, and he still maintained a calm expression on his face, and naturally took out a silver-white card from his pocket.
The edge of the card is inlaid with a circle of tiny diamonds, reflecting a dazzling light under the light. There is a complex pattern engraved on the front. It is the special pass for the management of Jiuchen Auction House.
The sentry took the card and placed it on the sensing area beside the door. With a slight beep, the indicator light on the alloy door turned from red to green, and the heavy door slowly opened to both sides, revealing the main door to the third floor.
"Sir, please." Qin Yue made a gesture of invitation and then said to Lin Yao:
"The security level on the third floor is the highest in the entire facility. These sentries are all retired elites from the interstellar military. They only recognize passes and tokens of the highest authority, not people."
Lin Yao nodded, his gaze lingering on the two sentinels for a second.
They didn't even relax their vigilance because the door was opened. They still maintained their original posture, like two emotionless sculptures, guarding the door to the third floor and the safety of those distinguished people on the third floor.
After the two walked into the passage, the alloy door slowly closed again, isolating everything behind them.
Stepping onto the third floor, Lin Yao clearly felt the difference from the first and second floors. The walls on both sides were embedded with small light beads that echoed the dome.
There are no densely packed boxes arranged in a circular pattern, and the entire floor is spacious.
There are only five fully enclosed private rooms located at the best viewing angles. Although they are few in number, each one is spacious and elegant.
What surprised Lin Yao even more was the carpet beneath his feet. As soon as he stepped on it, a familiar softness spread over him. "Titan Nebula Cotton?"
Qin Yue immediately took up his words and explained with a smile:
"Sir, you have good taste. This is indeed the Titan Nebula cotton carpet. It feels comfortable underfoot and has excellent sound absorption, keeping the third floor quiet at all times."
There is one in Lin Yao’s counseling room, which he bought himself.
The stuff is really good, but the price is so high that after Lin Yao bought one, he thought it would be better to wait until he has more money before buying a second one!
Now the entire corridor on the third floor and the area outside the box are all covered with this kind of carpet. At a glance, there is no end in sight. This luxury is unimaginable yet justified.
He stopped and continued to move forward. Lin Yao's original understanding of the status of the guests on the third floor had been raised a little because of the presence of the guard, and now it was even higher.
Qin Yue led Lin Yao to the left, introducing as he walked:
"The furnishings in each private room are also carefully selected. Whatever you need, it will be there!"
Soon, the two arrived at the door of one of the boxes.
The door of the box was made of dark solid wood. There were no complicated decorations on it. It only had the ancient Chinese character "three" carved on it, and a small sapphire was inlaid on the door handle.
Qin Yue signaled that Lin Yao had arrived, and then knocked on the door of the box.
The door was opened from the inside, and a black shadow rushed out, and Mo Yun's big head popped out from the door.
Qin Yue's pupils shrank slightly, and he subconsciously took a half step back. Fortunately, he was experienced and had long been able to remain calm in the face of emergencies. He stabilized his body in an instant, and there was no fluctuation in his expression on his face.
He recognized that this was Mo Yun who was beside the head of the Ye family, but he did not expect that they would have a face-to-face encounter in this way.
Mo Yun's forward movement suddenly stopped. After seeing that it was Qin Yue, a trace of disgust flashed in his round eyes, and he rolled his eyes in a humane way, as if to say, "Why you?"
It flicked its tail and moved to the side, as if it was too lazy to pay attention to Qin Yue.
But when its gaze passed Qin Yue and saw Lin Yao behind him, its appearance changed instantly.
Its eyes suddenly lit up like two stars in the dark night, and its tail swayed happily from side to side. The disgust just now disappeared, and it made a "sisi" sound from its mouth.
He wanted to get past Qin Yue and get closer to Lin Yao, but Ye Heng gave him the order of 'not allowed' through the mental link.
Lin Yao is not afraid of Mo Yun, but Qin Yue is not. Although he has pretended to be calm, he still has to give face to Jiuchen Auction House.
"Master Ye, the gentleman has been brought here." Qin Yue breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Mo Yun did not continue to rush forward and even made some room for him. He bowed slightly and spoke to the inside of the door, his tone still respectful.
"Thank you!" Ye Heng's voice came,
Qin Yue stepped aside and gestured to Lin Yao: "Sir, please come in."
"Thank you! Manager Qin!" Lin Yao also thanked him.
Qin Yue retired after completing his mission. Looking at the door closing in front of him, a layer of energy flowed through. He knew that this was the sound insulation layer that every first-class box was equipped with.
It is controlled from inside the box and can isolate all sounds inside to ensure the privacy of the box.
-
Lin Yao stepped into the box and the door slowly closed behind him, making a slight sound.
He was wearing a black hood with the brim pulled down low, covering most of his face, and a mask of the same color.
Only a pair of calm peach blossom eyes were revealed, revealing gentleness and aloofness.
This formal attire instantly aroused the curiosity of several people present.
Yan Rufeng frowned, muttering to himself: This is actually a guide!!! But why is he wrapped so tightly? Is he afraid of being recognized?
As he thought about it, he tried hard to see something from the exposed eyes, but found nothing.
Zhao Kun and Xu Li exchanged glances, both with confusion in their eyes. This guide was really mysterious!
Ye Mang stood in place, his eyes lingering on Lin Yao for a moment. He could sense that the other party was a guide.
This made him even more curious about Lin Yao's identity. What kind of guide could make the patriarch look at him differently?
Almost at the moment the door closed, Mo Yun, who had been unable to contain himself any longer, suddenly stood up straight.
Today, it was five meters long, and its huge body carried a weight that could not be ignored. It pounced towards Lin Yao like a dark green cannonball, and the whole snake was filled with joy.
"Be careful!" Yan Rufeng exclaimed subconsciously, then stood up with his eyes wide open.
He had personally experienced Mo Yun's strength, and if he pounced on him this time, he would definitely be knocked away!
Xu Li and Zhao Kun also felt a tightness in their hearts. They no longer cared whether Lin Yao was mysterious or not. They subconsciously took half a step forward, ready to take action at any time.
Ye Mang, as the person who opened the door, was the closest.
The moment Mo Yun pounced on him, his heart suddenly tightened.
He was even prepared to pull the guide away at any time, for fear that Lin Yao would be frightened by this sudden huge creature.
Looking at the sudden attack, Mo Yun was actually still able to control his strength.
However, Lin Yao was still staggered by the sudden impact. He caught half of Mo Yun's body and took two steps back before stabilizing himself.
Lin Yao's action of catching Mo Yun's upper body with his hands caused a gasp in the room.
Yan Rufeng was stunned. After sensing that the person on the other side was a guide, he stared at Ye Heng with eyes as big as copper bells, his eyes full of:
Is there a guide who dares to catch your black cloud with his bare hands?
Ye Heng gave him a look and let him figure it out for himself.
Lin Yao felt the weight in his hand and shook his head, a hint of helplessness flashing in his exposed eyes.
At this moment, an ice-blue leaf slid out from Lin Yao's wrist and accurately wrapped around Mo Yun's neck. The ice-blue leaf stopped above Mo Yun's head and patted it without hesitation.
The blow wasn't strong, but it carried a clear warning, as if to say: Oh! You reckless fellow.
After being hit, Mo Yun was not angry. Instead, he felt like he had finally waited for the playmate he had been waiting for.
It shook its head, sensing the familiar vibrations of the leaves, and its eyes instantly brightened several degrees.
Then he slid off Lin Yao without any reluctance and left without hesitation. It seemed as if his enthusiasm for Lin Yao just now was an illusion.
Lin Yao looked at Mo Yun who instantly forgot about him and was only concerned with playing with Sha Sha. The corners of his mouth twitched under the mask, and he felt inexplicably speechless in his heart. What kind of ruthlessness is that?
He sighed softly and looked at Ye Heng who was sitting over there, silently accusing him!
Ye Heng, who had seen all of this, caught the gaze and coughed awkwardly, "Come and sit down!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Come and sit! Come and sit!" Yan Rufeng was the first to come back to his senses from his surprise and quickly echoed Ye Heng's words.
He had a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were scanning back and forth between Lin Yao and Mo Yun, and the fire of gossip was burning fiercely.
What was that ice blue thing just now? It looked like it was very familiar to Mo Yun.
Lin Yao first said thank you to Ye Mang who was closing and opening the door, and nodded and greeted Xu Li and the others on his way over.
He walked to the seat and said to Yan Rufeng, "Hello!"
"Hello!" Yan Rufeng took over the conversation, then walked around and left the space here to the two of them.
Lin Yao followed Ye Heng's gesture and walked towards the sofa to his right.
Lin Yao sat down and just adjusted his sitting posture when Ye Heng gently pushed a cup of tea in front of him. The light golden tea soup swayed gently in the cup, emitting a faint fragrance.
“The tea here is good!”
"Thank you!"
The four people in the second row of sofas were amazed. Before Lin Yao sat down, Ye Heng picked up the teapot on the table and poured some tea into a new teacup. His movements were natural and smooth, as if he had done it countless times.
In order to drink tea, the disguise must be removed. Lin Yao raised his hand to take off the hood, revealing his soft black hair, and then reached out to untie the mask.
This action instantly quieted the atmosphere in the box, and everyone's eyes were involuntarily focused on his hands.
Yan Rufeng leaned forward and stared intently.
Ye Mang and the other two held their breath. Although they were sure that Lin Yao was their guide, they didn't know his specific identity.
As the mask was slowly pulled down, Lin Yao's entire face was exposed to everyone. His good looks would naturally amaze people at first sight. Even though Ye Heng had seen it before, he would still be amazed every time.
"Is it him?!"
Ye Mang and the other two exclaimed in their hearts almost at the same time, their eyes full of shock.
They recognized Lin Yao instantly! They had seen Lin Yao's photo before when they followed the patriarch to the White Pagoda.
At that time, they were conquered by the beauty of the person in the photo, but they didn't expect that the real person was even more beautiful than the photo.
The three of them exchanged glances and understood each other's words.
It turned out to be Lin Yao.
No wonder the patriarch treated him so specially and gave him the patriarch's badge.
After all, the head of the family tacitly agreed to the marriage contract with the Delin family, which meant he had tacitly agreed to his partner's status. It made perfect sense for the head of the family's partner to use the head of the family's badge!
However, this auction house was not very perceptive and actually stopped the owner's partner. Ye Mang felt that he needed to remind Qin Yue.
After all, Ye Mang is Ye Heng's most trusted confidant! The two of them had the same idea about this matter.
Yan Rufeng frowned in confusion, tapping his chin with his finger and whispering to Ye Mang and the others:
"Why do I feel like... this person looks familiar? Have I seen him somewhere?"
He stared at Lin Yao for a long time, his mind was a mess, and he couldn't remember where he had seen this face.
Ye Mang and the other two did not respond. They still remembered that when Doctor Yan knew that Lin Yao was going to marry the head of the family, he was extremely pessimistic!
They said Lin Yao was an alumnus of Baita College five years below him, and had met him before. He was not good at counseling and could not help the patriarch!
They knew that Yan Rufeng actually had good intentions and always put the head of the family at the center of everything.
But putting that aside, didn't Yan Rufeng say they knew each other before? Why didn't he recognize me now?
-
After Lin Yao drank a sip of tea, Ye Heng introduced him to the other people in the box, and both sides greeted each other one by one.
Not to mention Yan Rufeng's shock, Ye Heng was also like, "Did you find the Science and Technology Museum boring and come here for fun?"
It would have been fine if Ye Heng hadn't mentioned it, but as soon as he did, Lin Yao narrowed his eyes and moved his gaze quietly to the window, watching the seats below being filled up.
"If I find him, he's dead!"
Lin Yao uttered these nine words with gritted teeth, just like squeezing toothpaste!
