Chapter 197 - Priceless Treasure (1/2)
When thinking about that, the black cloth covering the iron cage was suddenly lifted off, with a beam of light focusing on her body.
The intense light nearly blinded her.
She raised her hands to cover her eyes. After a while, she could finally see the surrounding environment clearly. It seemed to be an auction venue, while she was in the object display area.
In such a large iron cage, her hands and feet were bound. With just a white robe on her body, she sat in the cage poorly, helplessly facing the wretched looks from those present.
“Haha, it turns out to be a woman, young and good looking.”
“Hmm… she seems to be in good shape.”
For a second, the hall became noisy. Everyone was discussing about Long Xi in the cage.
“My guests, please hold on. This auction item is somewhat special. She’s not selling herself but for one night. Things become valuable because they are rare. She is really a sexy girl in bed. You can tell it from her appearance and shape. The starting price is 100,000 yuan!” The host was a fat middle-aged man.
Long Xi was totally stunned. How was it that she became an auction item? How could she sell out herself for one night? Wasn’t it equivalent to selling her body?
“Hey… you don’t have the right to sell me. Let me out!” Realizing that things went wrong, she screamed out.
The host walked to the iron cage. Putting the microphone aside, he said to her in a low voice, “Sweetheart, can you be quiet?”
“Let me out!” Long Xi smashed the cage railing with the handcuffs in anger.
“Sorry, I can’t release you until someone buys you. Now, you’re just an auction item. The one offering the highest price will have you.” A piece of fascination flashed by the fat host’s face.
“You can’t do this. You don’t have any right to sell my body. Who sent me here?” Long Xi said.
“I’m just a seller! It’s Miss Qiuzi and Mr. Mo Kun who sold you to me. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Man Yiming… Man Shahua’s father, the girl you killed. I’m the boss of this underground auction. “Long Xi, don’t struggle anymore. Miss Qiuzi and Mr. Mo Kun are sitting there and looking at you. Don’t dream about anyone saving you. No one would dare to interrupt their matters.” At the end of his words, Man Yiming glanced at the two VIP seats in the first row under the stage.
Long Xi followed Man Yiming’s eyesight and made contact with Qiuzi’s gloomy stare. Mo Kun behaved naturally and still felt as if nothing had to do with him.
Long Xi felt heartbroken as if a knife were scratching her heart. “Why? Why? Brother Kun, why do you treat me like this?!”
“100,000!” Suddenly someone bade for her.
“130,000!”
“240,000!”
The bidding price rose higher and higher. Long Xi stared at Brother Kun intently, hoping he could stop that funny drama soon. But he didn’t!
He said nothing when the bidding started. Mo Kun looked at her as if watching a comedy, a comedy that his beloved Qiuzi directed.
“Brother Kun, you really can’t remember me? Qiuzi, you’re so vicious. A demon!! No, you’re more vicious than a demon!”
“880,000 yuan. It’s a lucky number. Congratulations to buyer No.43. You’ve won a night with this beauty.” Man Yiming rang the auction bell to end that ridiculous auction. It seemed to break Long Xi’s heart.
The cage was pulled down by the staff to the backstage. She stared at the place where Mo Kun was with desperate eyes. However, he still remained unmoved.
In a backstage room, the door was open, with a foreign blond man walking in. He said in blunt Chinese, “Little beauty… hey, what a poor girl!”
The middle-aged man had a key in his hand and walked towards her. He opened the iron cage and got inside. Then, unlocked the chains on her feet.
“Little beauty, I’m coming.” As he said, he was about to rush to her.
“Wait, sir, don’t you think it’s too crowded here?” Long Xi said in an extremely calm voice but hoarse because of a sore throat.
“Yeah, yeah.” The blond man climbed out of the iron cage.
Long Xi braced herself and walked out, holding back her tears. She knew she couldn’t be nervous at that vital moment. What Qiuzi really wanted was just to insult her, so how could Long Xi allow her to succeed?
“Little beauty, can we start now? Let me kiss you first. You should know I spent 880,000 yuan to buy your night.” The middle-aged man rubbed his hands and was eager to taste her body.
“Sir, let’s chat first to establish our relationship. Okay, what’s your name? What kind of industry do you work in?” Long Xi held back her pain and wore a smile.
“Haha, I’m afraid you’ll be scared if I state my identity. Have you ever heard of Mei Aibao Treasure Hunting Company? I am the boss of that company, Luo Bochen!” The blond man patted his chest.
“Oh… I see. Have you ever heard about the richest man in Z Country? Long Xi said with a smile.
“Mo Kun?” The blond man was clearly surprised.
“Yes, Mo Kun is my man. This is just a game he deliberately plays with me. Mr. Luo Bochen, are you sure you would dare to force Mo Kun’s woman?” A hint of slyness passed by her eyes. “Mo Kun, since you tried to push me into hell, I will step on you to stand up again!”
The blond man was frightened. “What, what do you mean? No, this is impossible. How could CEO Mo Kun sell his girl as an auction item? How could he possibly allow himself to be cuckolded in public?”
“Hum, why do you think it’s impossible? You can go to the auctioneer for advice on whether Mo Kun brought me here. I’m Long Xi, Mo Kun’s fiancee! But I offended him recently. He’s playing a joke on me!”
