"Hmm? Leaving early?" Arnor already knew that Ning Xiao was interested in "mermaids," so he didn't pay much attention to it.
Arnor didn't care much about interests. From the beginning, he wanted to compete with Qingran and surpass her in every way, so that his bastard father would know that he was no worse than Qingran, and even much better.
Later, after spending some time with Qingran, I found that this older brother seemed... not so annoying, and even quite nice.
Later, I discovered that I was interested in these medical things, so I focused on them.
Although Arnor also enjoys conducting experiments, he is far from being as crazy as Ning Xiao.
Arnor wouldn't pay too much attention to what Ning Xiao and Zou Ling did, as long as it didn't interfere with his business.
Moreover, it can also bring him profit, so why not?
However, Ning Xiao actually managed to "create" the "mermaids," which greatly shocked Arnor.
As for those people below who couldn't resist coming out of the private room, Arnor could completely understand it, because even he himself had just been tempted to go up and touch them.
Arnor has been busy with GM144 these past few days and hasn't had time to check what items are up for auction.
The basic components are largely the same, except that this time a third-generation cell repair device has been added, which was also Arnor's idea.
As for the "mermaids," it's probably Ning Xiao's idea.
He really is a madman.
Arnor looked at the two remaining auction items, both of which were quite nice, and there was a ball to follow, so why would anyone leave early?
Such dances are great opportunities to make friends and seek collaborations.
No one would refuse such a ball.
And now two people are leaving early?
“Yes, Lord Jones.” Ning Yao bowed, her tone still respectful yet humble. “Lord Brown is feeling unwell, so the Brown family head has decided to take him away early.”
This is the best way to put it.
After these few days, it's clear to everyone that the Brown family head truly loves Lord Brown.
"Oh, really? Are you feeling unwell?"
The young man with graying temples, sitting on the other chair, slowly took a sip of tea. "There should be a doctor and a cell repair device here. We can have the doctor examine Lord Brown. If something really happens, it will be the auction house's responsibility."
His tone was gentle, with a hint of concern, and his gaze lingered, not focusing too much on Ning Yao.
He appeared to be a very gentle and refined person, but for some reason, Ning Yao sensed an immense danger emanating from him.
This is something she never did when facing Ning Xiao!
"The Brown family head means there's no need to go to trouble. Lord Brown himself has no interest in the ball that follows. Right now, Master Gu and the Duke of Windsor are in the Supreme Loulan in the capital. Lord Brown is also the niece of a former friend of the Duke of Windsor."
Ning Yao's meaning was also very clear: it would be the same for the two of them to go back.
"The auction house did not provide adequate hospitality."
Arnor remained silent, and Wei Shengxu and Han Lianjun were even more silent.
It was that young man with graying temples who said it, "Arnor, I remember that Lord Brown likes the pastries and desserts from Sushan Dessert Shop, right?"
Arnor nodded and raised his chin. "He should really like the new jasmine green grape cheese mochi fries from Sushan Dessert Shop."
"When we leave, we asked the waiter to send two portions over."
Those who come to Fuyun Island must not be people who carry money with them.
At this point, the sentiment behind it becomes more important.
“Yes, Your Excellency Jones,” the attendant behind him replied.
“Since Patriarch Brown and Lord Brown are leaving, Young Master Ning, would you please see them off?” Arnor said to Ning Yao.
Ning Yao bowed slightly. "Patriarch Brown means there's no need to trouble yourself. I've only come to report this."
“That’s fine, let’s send the pastries over.” Arnor didn’t think too much about it.
According to his information, this Lord Brown was a capable scoundrel.
The Brown family still wields considerable influence in Western Europe, so there's no need for him to antagonize her.
And it's a dance party, after all.
If I don't want to participate, I don't want to participate. It's not a very important thing anyway.
"Yao takes her leave." Ning Yao bowed and departed.
"How is it?" Arnor looked at his two comrades who were practically cowering in a corner. "Don't you all look down on Ning Er, this illegitimate daughter? To me, she's much better than either of you."
Arnor himself was also an illegitimate child and felt that his background was somewhat shameful, but after thinking about it carefully, what did it have to do with him? Wasn't it just that bastard in the empire who couldn't control his lower body?
His mother was also foolish; she believed that bastard's words and became a mistress without even knowing it.
In his country of citizenship, getting a marriage certificate is far less important than a wedding ceremony. That bastard actually held a wedding ceremony with his mother, but they didn't get a marriage certificate.
As for Ning Yao, Arnor also held her in high esteem.
At least he's better than Ning Zhang, that idiot who only knows how to do scientific research.
Wei Shengxu and Han Lianjun kept their heads down. They both had a good relationship with Ning Zhang and were both the eldest sons of married couples, so they naturally looked down on Ning Yao.
However, it must be admitted that Ning Yao's methods were indeed quite effective.
“But what did you mean just now?” Arnor looked at the young man.
Why would he suddenly get involved in these things?
Wei Sheng Sui brewed tea, his eyes fixed on the clear tea water. "It's alright." He was simply confirming some of his guesses.
If you want him to remember, he might as well lend her a hand.
I just don't know if this delicate flower, grown in a greenhouse, can withstand it.
Otherwise, he was very curious about what this famous eldest son would do.
Should we seal his memories again?
Is it a love story filled with torment and suffering, going back and forth repeatedly?
"You left early, so why are there still gifts?" Shen Bei'an didn't dare to accept the gifts, fearing they were something like what he got from the underground boxing ring last time.
"It's two servings of jasmine grape cheese mochi fries, as ordered by Lord Jones, to acknowledge the auction house's shortcomings in hospitality," Ning Yao stated truthfully.
Upon hearing this, Shen Beian breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, please thank him for me."
Although Master Shen didn't like Arnor, he still valued basic etiquette.
Gu Nanyan took the paper bag and nodded to Ning Yao.
Outside, Gu Xingxiao was already waiting.
Gu Nanyan carried Shen Bei'an into the car, "Let's go straight back to Wushang Loulan."
"Yes, my lord."
"Have Zhaojun come to me." Gu Nanyan's eyes flickered slightly as he played with Shen Bei'an's fingers, seemingly lost in thought.
"Understood." Even though Gu Xingxiao had been by Gu Nanyan's side since childhood and was a young master from a collateral branch of the Gu family, he still had an inexplicable feeling towards Meng Zhaojun. Of course, he could also feel this feeling when he was with Feng You.
Let alone the sons of collateral branches, how many of the sons of the direct line would not be intimidated by the two of them?
