After saying that, Wuxie sat on the chair. This action really shocked Huo Xiangu. Not only Huo Xiangu, but even Liuli Sun was shocked. Jie Yuchen on the opposite side almost went over to pull Wuxie up.
Ji Huaichuan had expected this result a long time ago and was not too surprised. He fanned himself calmly, knowing that there would be an exciting fight scene to watch soon.
"Who told you to sit here? Stand up!" Huo Xiangu said sternly.
Wu Xie glanced at the seat, then at Huo Xiangu, blinked, and said, "If you don't tell me, I won't stand."
Huo Xiangu turned around and said to the bodyguard beside her, "Have someone drag these hooligans out of here."
"Old lady, it's a bit undignified to chase people away. Young Master San should respect the elderly, but we are real hooligans. If we start a fight and hurt you, it will be bad." The fat man suddenly spoke.
"Brother Wuxie, this position is..."
Huo Xiuxiu anxiously wanted to tell Wuxie, but was interrupted by Huo Xiangu, "Don't say anything, let him sit if he wants."
Hearing the tone of Huo Xiangu's voice, Wu Xie felt somewhat unsure as to where this place was...
Wu Xie suddenly felt a little timid. "Mrs. Huo, we really did what we said. Otherwise, could you please stop playing tricks on me? If my grandfather does anything to let you down, please slap me a few times..."
At this moment, the fat man's cell phone rang. The fat man took out his phone and saw that it was Ji Huaichuan. When he looked up, he saw Ji Huaichuan and Jie Yuchen in a room. Ji Huaichuan was smiling and waving at them.
Fatty picked up the phone and heard Ji Huaichuan say on the other end, "Fatty, tell Wuxie to just sit there peacefully and don't worry about anything else."
Huo Xiangu naturally heard the noise on the phone. She looked up and saw a man in a dark green windbreaker standing in the private room opposite. Huo Xiangu was a little surprised. She didn't expect to see Zhou Yue here.
It was now obvious that Zhou Yue and Wu Xie were in cahoots. Huo Xiangu pondered for a moment and said slowly, "How about this? Let's each take a step back. You just sit here and wait until the auction is over. Then I'll tell you."
Fatty had just finished relaying Ji Huaichuan's words to Wuxie, and Wuxie instantly felt emboldened. He smiled and asked, "That's it? Just sit here and tell me about Yangshi Lei?"
Huo Xiangu nodded, "Yes, that's it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the microphone downstairs rang out, "The auction at the Crescent Hotel is now starting."
The atmosphere gradually became tense, and everyone was looking at the things on the booth intently. Ji Huaichuan had already returned to his private room, leaning back in a chair and fanning himself boredly, and even yawned at the end.
Across from her, Huo Xiangu smiled softly and said, "Watch carefully, today is going to be a great show."
Xie Yuchen called Wuxie, but unfortunately Wuxie didn't answer the call. Just when he saw Wuxie turning around, Xie Yuchen quickly signaled Wuxie that he couldn't sit in that seat.
The fat man thought Xie Yuchen wanted Wuxie to go to his side, but Wuxie touched his chin and said, "I'm afraid that's not what he meant."
Wu Xie looked around at all the private rooms on the second floor. There was an empty seat next to each person. Wu Xie quickly called Fatty, "Fatty, look, why is no one sitting here?"
Wu Xie felt something was amiss and slowly straightened up. The waiter who came to deliver the brochure asked Huo Xiangu, "Huo Xiangu, could your friend be sitting in the wrong seat?"
Huo Xiangu flipped through the manual and smiled, "Now you've opened your eyes, right? Besides Master Zhang Dafo, no one has dared to sit in this seat for a long time. But what we're shooting today is something that only happens once in a century, so the appearance of a few fearless people is fitting."
The waiter didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and left. Shortly after, he returned with a tray with two more tea bowls and a manual on it. The fat man glanced at it and whispered to Zhang Qiling, "Hey, is this the pot of tea that cost over 7,000 yuan?"
The waiter said, "These are sent by the Crescent Hotel. If you have any other instructions, you can call us at any time."
"Mrs. Huo, has Master Buddha...ever sat here?" Wu Xie swallowed and asked uncertainly.
Huo Xiangu put down the manual and said, "Back then, Master Zhang Dafo sat in this position and was able to marry Yin Xinyue. Do you think you can also calculate an auspicious date today... and win the beauty?"
Wuxie was startled and suddenly felt that he might be in trouble. He immediately turned around to look at Zhang Qiling and the fat man. The fat man shook Wuxie's shoulder and signaled him not to panic.
Wu Xie breathed a sigh of relief, but was startled when he opened the auction brochure. "Today's auction is the Ghost Seal?! Fatty, come and take a look."
The bell downstairs rang again, "The Jade Seal with the Ghost Button and Dragon Fish Emblem has started shipping."
As soon as he finished speaking, the brocade was opened, and the Ghost Seal appeared. It was in the shape of a dark green Qilin stepping on a ghost. The Qilin held its head high and stepped on a three-headed little ghost. The little ghost's claws were grasping the Qilin's claws, and the Qilin seemed to be made up of countless little ghosts. From another angle, you can see the shape of countless dragons and fish. Legend has it that only the Ghost Seal can open the bronze door and witness the secrets inside.
The Ghost Seal was carefully placed in a display box, which was then hung on a dragon head hook. The man holding the dragon head hook slowly lifted the brocade box and walked around the venue.
"Made of meteorite jade?" Wu Xie whispered as he looked at the Ghost Seal parked at their window.
In the private room, Ji Huaichuan stared at the Ghost Seal that slowly turned towards him, his eyes dark and unclear. His house key was actually here...
The exhibition box passed by Ji Huaichuan's window and left, and the people in the private room also disappeared.
"Light up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a waiter at the side brought a lantern and hung it on the dragon head hook. The lantern was hung on the hook on Wuxie's side along with the dragon head hook. There was applause and cheers from downstairs. Wuxie was a little confused and followed suit.
Huo Xiangu looked at him amused. After the applause died down, she slowly spoke, "It's been a long time since anyone dared to light this sky lantern. You've brought honor to the Wu family. From now on, everyone in the martial arts world will know the reputation of you, the young master of the Wu family."
After hearing what Huo Xiangu said, Wuxie suddenly turned around to look at the lantern, his mind racing with thoughts about what it meant.
Huo Xiangu continued, "But your prestige is only temporary. I'm afraid your Wu family will be burned down by this wasteful lamp of yours."
Wuxie stared at the bright sky lantern and whispered, "Fatty, what time is it?"
The fat man glanced at his watch, leaned over to Wuxie's ear and said, "It's four o'clock. We'll win in half an hour. Don't be nervous. Chuan'er told you to sit still, so there will be no problem."
Wu Xie nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, "But I'm afraid it won't be so comfortable to sit for the remaining half hour."
