Chapter 367 The Beginning - Auction (1/2)

At the auction house, in VIP room 3, while Tyrant was eating his eighth ice cream, everyone started to enter the hall.

”He really likes ice cream…” Leng Yuexin did not pay attention to the auction house. Instead, she was looking at Tyrant who was sitting on a carpet with a strange facial expression.

”This is the last one. Everyone is entering the hall. Let's get to work,” Lin Huang told Tyrant.

Tyrant immediately nodded, stuffing the remaining ice cream into his mouth. He then stood up with a serious face. If he was not munching on food, n.o.body would doubt his ident.i.ty as a bodyguard.

The three of them then s.h.i.+fted their focus to the auction house. The crowd entered the hall and soon, they looked for their seats and sat down.

The auction house was very big and it could hold more than 10,000 people. There were less than 1,000 people who were actually there to join the auction. Most of them were not qualified to bring along their followers. Therefore, their bodyguards were stationed outside the hall.

They were not worried about their safety since the auction was attended by royal members. The auction had been established for more than a hundred years and n.o.body had ever dared to create trouble. There was only one reason behind this which was because they had powerful backup. The two immortal-level guards stationed outside the auction house also scared away any trouble.

About ten minutes later, all the partic.i.p.ants had entered the hall. The number of people was not even a tenth of the total number of seats available. However, the place was not quiet at all. Obviously, many of them had known each other and struck up small talk, making the hall rather lively.

Lin Huang suddenly saw a familiar figure appear among the crowd. However, since the person's back was facing him in addition to the hat he was wearing, Lin Huang could only see the posterior above the person's shoulder when seated. He could hardly confirm the person's ident.i.ty.

Staring at the person's black suit for a few moments, Lin Huang was still wondering who that familiar person was.

”Perhaps, I met that person by chance that's why I feel that he looks familiar.” Lin Huang shook his head and he did not ponder any longer about that.

”There are too many acquaintances here… That's why I don't like to join such an event.” Leng Yuexin obviously recognized many of the familiar faces.

”Isn't that good?” Lin Huang asked as he could not understand her.

”Acquaintances and friends are totally different. They’re hypocrites and many of them are double-faced. Other than saying something flattering, what they say are never true. That’s why I hate entertaining these people. It's tiring,” Leng Yuexin shook her head and told him the truth. She had always been honest and frank. Listening to what she said, Lin Huang was not surprised.

In fact, Lin Huang did not know much about the royal families. When he traveled to this world, he heard about them. His first impression was that the people must not be friendly since they divided themselves into different social cla.s.ses.

However, after knowing Leng Yuexin, Yi Yeyu, and the rest, he realized that many of the royal members he met were friendly. They were well brought up, had a great sense of justice and were responsible as well. They were just simply good people overall.

Listening to what Leng Yuexin said, Lin Huang instantly realized that he was thinking too narrowly. He did not comment anymore on this since Leng Yuexin knew more about the royal families than he did.

”I like people who are simple. We can only meet when it's necessary and it’s fine not to contact each other if nothing happens. There's no need to deliberately make conversation, so we won't feel awkward then.” Lin Huang felt that Leng Yuexin was implying him.
