40 Surprise At The Auction - 12.1 (2/2)

With fast and practiced movements, the attendants uncovered the trays to reveal different snacks and delicate pastries which were all emiting a fragrant and delicious smell as they quickly served them, placing them on a small table in front of Fan Zhu Xia that was easily within reach while another quickly set up a a small tray with several delicate porcelain cups and a small built-in stove that had an inscription which was activated as soon as the teapot was placed on top of it.

After everything was served, the attendants didn't dally any longer and quickly excused themselves while telling them that if they needed anything, to just call before leaving the room in an orderly fashion.

Eyeing the spread in front of her, Fan Zhu Xia reached up to remove her veil and hand it over to Chun Hua, exposing her breathtaking features and gorgeous countenance before she stretched out her hand to gently pick up one of the pastries to nibble on it happily while Chun Hua poured her tea and Min Sheng stood behind the sofa she sat in to assume his position again.

Looking out the glass wall, Fan Zhu Xia noticed how the seats at the lower floor were gradually filling up as people were led to their respective rooms and seats in a quiet and orderly fashion.

This made Fan Zhu Xia realize something before she excitedly said, ”The auction's about to start!”

Meanwhile, in another room, much larger and more exquisite than the one where Fan Zhu Xia is, Ho You was standing respectfully to one side of an elaborately carved sofa as he waited for the man sitting on it to speak.

”Has everything been taken cared of?”

Without delay, Ho You promptly replied, ”Yes Young Master. Everything was done according to your instructions.”

”You led her to the best room her card could get?”

”Yes sir.”

”How about tea and refreshments I told you?”

”Has already been served.”

”How about the guards?”

”I've already notified them to keep watch and make sure no one disturbs them.”

”The attendants?”

”They are waiting just outside the room in the hallway just in case they need something.”

Finally satisfied, the young man leaned back and placed his arm on top of the armrest before lifting his hand and resting his chin on it as he nodded in approval.

”Good.”

Letting out in inaudible sigh in relief, Ho You then asked, ”Is there anything else the Young Master would like for me to do?”

Not answering Ho You immediately, the young man had pondering look on his face, before a light glittered from his black obsidian eyes as he thought of something, making his already handsome features all the more appealing and eye-catching, especially when the corner of his reddish lips tilted up to form a smallmischievous grin, giving him an air of alluring devillish mystery.

”Hmm...There is one more thing I'd like for you to take care of. Come here.”

Coming closer, Ho You leaned down slightly, enough to hear the young man's quiet words of instruction.

As Ho You listened, his eyes widened slightly in surprised before he straightened up and gave an affirmative nod as he carefully took the jade box that the young man materialized from his spatial ring.

”I'll go and take care of it right away.”

With a wave of his hand, the young man dismissed Ho You before directing his attention to the auction stage below before letting out a small laugh filled with anticipation before sighing wistfully as he shook his head with a smile on his face.

”Oh how I wish I could see your face when you see the surprise I prepared for you, my little phoenix.”
