C219 (1/2)

Today, the auction that Zhang Yaxin and I will participate in is divided into the first two stages, and we will only be participating in the first half. During the second half, I will have Zhang Yaxin bring me to take a look at their entire auction house.

”The higher I go, the higher my security level. Even I, as a member of the Zhang Family, can only reach the seventh floor. Without Grandpa's help or invitation, it would be impossible to enter.”

”The security here is so strong, are there many treasures hidden?”

The corridors here were filled with people walking in three steps, one on guard, one on guard. Every time we passed by them, they would look at us coldly, making us feel uncomfortable.

According to my grandfather, the tenth floor is where those treasures are kept, and the ninth floor is where our family's top auction house is. I heard that a recent auction will be held there, and this is a golden age that only happens once every very long time.

Zhang Yaxin tilted her head and calculated again. Her small hand reached out with four fingers other than her thumb, and waved it in front of me.

”In that case, we're going to auction some valuable items in the near future.”

”Hm!” I heard that there is a treasure called the Mermaid tears inside, many people want it. ”

An item mentioned in Qin Yan's mission, my mission this time is to find out who the person who took it out for auction is.

”Alright, now that we've reached the seventh level, let's go!”

Zhang Yaxin led me up from the first floor to the second floor, without missing a single corner. Along the way, like a small tour guide, she explained to me the uses of each room, as well as some stories about what happened to them.

Now that they were done strolling, Zhang Yaxin was so tired that she was almost paralyzed. She pulled on my sleeves and swayed left and right, raising her chin up high as she said to me: ”Look at how hard it has been taking you on a tour, shouldn't you give me some compensation?”

I find it hard to resist Zhang Yaxin's coquettish actions. I couldn't help but pat her head and ask with a smile: ”What kind of compensation do you want?”

”En …” Zhang Yaxin cast his gaze towards the ceiling on the other side, after thinking for a while, he turned his head back and smiled at me, ”Since I am so tired, carry me on your back! I don't want to walk right now. ”

”This is your grandpa's territory. All of your grandpa's subordinates know you. If I carry you, you will definitely be spread around randomly by the security guards. At that time, your reputation won't be good.”

If it was on a street where no one knew us, I could still accept this request, but being the focus of attention here, Zhang Yaxin was sure to make me reject it from the bottom of my heart.

”How could this ruin my reputation? You didn't do anything to me. ”Besides, after walking around for a while, these people already thought that we were a couple.”

Looks like today is the day I'm set with Zhang Yaxin. I helplessly shook my head and didn't say anything else. Since I said that I would make it up, then I'll just kneel down and wait for Zhang Yaxin to come up.

Just as I was waiting for Zhang Yaxin to come up, I raised my head and suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Fan Xinyu was currently discussing something with the two security guards at the entrance to the eighth floor.

Wasn't Fan Xinyu supposed to be at the auction? Why did you come here? From the looks of it, she seemed to want to enter the eighth floor that even Zhang Yaxin could not enter.

”Haha!” ”Let's go!”
