Chapter 1094

(Unedited)

…

Xin Ja sits on his spot while a feeling of excitement is in his heart. This is the first time for him to attend an auction, so one could say that he feels both excited and nervous at the same time. Qing Joming on his side showed a faint smile on his face after seeing the jittery and uncomfortable Xin Ja.

”Hey, relax… I promise you that this auction here would be fun and exciting. Hehe… Well… if you have some money on you, then you might want to bid on some items you like. Just raise that number…” Qing Joming said while pointing at the number pad placed behind the chair in front of him.

Xin Ja innocently takes the number pad and scrutinized it before putting it back on.

”Just raise that one up if you want to bid.” Qing Joming repeated.

Meanwhile, the seats are slowly getting filled out as the auction time drew near. Xin Ja could also see some people seated on private booths with some people serving those inside the booth. He could not help but throw those people with curious looks.

”Those guys are rich scions and clans from around Ogden Town and the nearest city. I heard that on one of these booths, someone from the City of Alesia, the city of lore and magic, came through the teleportation channel of Ogden Southern Gate village…”

Xin Ja has heard of such a city from his books before, so he feels a bit curious now.

”Commander Wang Zhou was forced to leave his wounded and still suffering son, and assisted that convoy in entering the town… And guess what, that commander took his son to the town. He is hoping that someone could cure his son's condition. In fact, I heard that he is going to ask a relative to assist them…” Qing Joming added.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback upon hearing his words. Who is more familiar than him with the condition of Wang Changli? But upon hearing that the Wang father and son have a relative in the town, Xin Ja could not help but think about that person who has the same family name as them.

”Are they related to my master?... If they are, then for my master's sake, I will try to cure that guy then… But I hope that he would not pester Yao Xue and change his attitude for the better.” he thought.

Xin Ja is just a bit confused at the attitude of that Wang Changli guy. His master is a very stern and upright person, so how could his relative be like that?

But he also could not blame his master for having such relatives, he could only lament their luck for meeting him at that time.

Soon, he noticed people began discussing when someone appears in the private booth. That person is a veiled woman wearing a light pink gown and silver crown on her hair. Although no one could see her whole face, from her eyes alone and the contour of her nose, they could already deduce that this woman is very beautiful. That… and coupled with her well-shaped body, thin waist, which shows an almost perfect figure, the eyes of the men in the auction house are already glued on her.

The crowd was immediately silent at this time, while Xin Ja already noticed the bulging eyes of Qing Joming as his neck is craned over to that booth on the second floor.

Then suddenly from the corner of his eyes, Xin Ja noticed a familiar figure. It was his father, Xin Jong. Beside Xin Jong is a middle-aged burly man which bears a heroic aura.

”Hey, that's your dad… Would you want to go there and greet him?” Qing Joming said as he has already recovered from his stupor.

”No, it's fine. Papa is a bit busy…”

When Qing Joming heard this, a playful expression appears on his handsome face.

”Oh, so it's… Papa…” he teased.

Suddenly, he stopped and a melancholy expression appears on his face.

”Sigh… You're lucky. Your father really pampers you well… As for me, my father treats me like crap… He would always tell me to do this,… tells me to do that… but no matter what I do, it's still not enough. It was as if, my effort is only laughable…”

Feeling the melancholy in the tone of his friend, Xin Ja just patted his shoulder awkwardly.

He then saw someone he knew.

When he first saw Liu Zhen, Xin Ja viewed her as the young woman he saw in his dreams. But after being with Yao Xue, it seems that he has forgotten about her in his dreams.

Such is the pickle-mindedness of the youths. This is true especially for Xin Ja who has is not that well acquainted with people.

This time, he saw another side of Liu Zhen. She is wearing a white silky gown that flows through her youthful curves. She even wears light makeup which made her looks like a fairy from the heavens who has come to visit the world.

It seems that she could feel his gaze, so she shifted her eyes, and their gaze met. A slightly surprised expression appears on her beautiful face. She then showed a faint smile that attracted the people around her.

Xin Ja nodded his head to greet her cordially. But deep inside his heart, he feels a hint of excitement for some unknown reason. Well, he would deny it, but in truth, he feels excited because someone as beautiful as Liu Zhen has recognized him.
