Female Transformation: I Run Away When I See the Female Lead
Chapter 32 Auction
After saying that, Bai Jin turned and left. Su Yan looked at his back and also left the teahouse.
Bai Jin returned to the teahouse and saw Jiang Yunjiu still sitting there, his face still showing the afterglow from his conversation with Su Yan. He happily walked over to her. As he got closer, he noticed that the water in the teacup had turned to ice and unconsciously took a step back.
But thinking that escaping was not a solution, Bai Jin stepped forward again and asked Jiang Yunjiu cautiously: "Yunjiu, what's wrong? Who made you angry?"
Jiang Yunjiu snorted coldly, turned her head away and didn't look at him, saying coldly: "You still remember to come back, I thought you ran away with that woman."
Bai Jin quickly waved his hands and explained, "Yunjiu, don't get me wrong. She's an acquaintance of mine. I just went to chat with her about a few things. It's not what you think."
"What chat takes two hours?" Jiang Yunjiu said.
Bai Jin couldn't admit that he was actually a person who traveled from another world, so he could only cover it up and say, "It's been a while since we last met, so we talked for a while. And we really had a lot to talk about, so we didn't pay attention to the time."
Jiang Yunjiu turned around, a hint of doubt in her eyes: "Is that really all? Then who is she, and what is her relationship with you?"
Bai Jin scratched his head: "Her name is Su Yan. We have been through some things together before, so I chatted with her for a while. I promise that I will never make you wait so long and worry like this again. Don't be angry."
Jiang Yunjiu looked into Bai Jin's eyes, was silent for a moment, and said, "I'll trust you this time. If I find out you're lying to me, you'll be in trouble."
"Okay, okay," Bai Jin nodded.
I thought: That's not right. Damn it! I didn't do anything, so why am I being scolded like this? Am I an M? But forget it, there's no point in getting angry with her.
Bai Jin put on a flattering smile and said to Jiang Yunjiu, "Yunjiu, don't be angry. How about I take you out for some delicious food to make up for it?"
Jiang Yunjiu rolled his eyes at him: "Huh, that's more like it."
The two walked side by side on the street. Bai Jin kept an eye on the surrounding shops while chatting with Jiang Yunjiu from time to time.
Bai Jin pointed to a restaurant and said, "How about this one? It looks quite lively and the food should be good."
Jiang Yunjiu took a look and said, "Okay, then this one."
As you walk into the restaurant, you're greeted by a burst of aroma. The dishes made by the spirit beasts are quite delicious, drawing praise from many diners.
The two found a seat by the window and sat down. Bai Jin attentively pulled out a chair for Jiang Yunjiu. After she sat down, he sat down opposite her.
Soon, the dishes arrived. Bai Jin gazed intently at the tableful of dishes. He picked up his serving chopsticks and reached first for the plate of bright red spiritual deer meat. He carefully picked up a piece of venison, its fat and lean parts interlaced, its texture distinct. With eyes full of anticipation, he handed it to Jiang Yunjiu's bowl and said softly, "Yunjiu, try this! It's said to be their signature dish, made with third-grade spiritual deer meat. It's delicious."
Jiang Yunjiu took a look at the venison in the bowl, picked it up and put it in his mouth. After chewing it carefully, he nodded slightly: "It tastes really good."
Seeing her approval, Bai Jin's smile grew even brighter. He immediately extended his chopsticks to the plate of spiritual fish drenched in golden sauce next to him. The tender fish meat shimmered with an alluring luster under the light. He gently placed a piece of fish into Jiang Yun's wine bowl and said, "This spiritual fish is also great. You should try it."
Then, Bai Jin continued to pick up other dishes for Jiang Yunjiu. Every time he did so, he carefully observed Jiang Yunjiu's reaction. There was both anticipation and a hint of caution in his eyes, as if Jiang Yunjiu's evaluation of these dishes was extremely important to him.
Jiang Yunjiu looked at Bai Jin busying around, and most of her anger subsided.
"The auction will start tomorrow," a young monk in a green robe said excitedly to his companions.
Upon hearing this, his companion's eyes lit up and he said, "I heard there will be an immortal-level magic weapon at tomorrow's auction! I don't know if it's true or not."
A white-haired old man nearby stroked his beard, shook his head and said, "What kind of good person wouldn't keep an immortal-level magic weapon as a family heirloom? Where would you sell it? I really don't understand."
"Maybe they are in urgent need of money or some other resources, so they reluctantly sell it up for auction." The young monk guessed.
"It could also be an ownerless item in some ruins." Another burly man added.
"No matter what, if there really is an immortal-level magic weapon, then this auction will be very lively, and all forces will definitely send people to compete for it." The companion's eyes lit up with anticipation, and he rubbed his hands unconsciously.
"Yes, there will definitely be fierce fighting between dragons and tigers at that time, but I don't know who will eventually get the immortal-level magic weapon." The young monk smacked his lips, frowned and fell into thought, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Master Wu Liu's elixirs are also being auctioned." A skinny man came over with a hint of greed in his eyes.
"I'm afraid that all the forces in the entire Zuo world will arrive here by now," said a burly man next to him with his arms folded across his chest and a serious expression.
"The royal family will also come to compete." A small man with shifty eyes lowered his voice, his eyes constantly glancing around.
"Speak less, the royal family doesn't allow random talk." An old man quickly covered the little man's mouth and looked around nervously.
"Maybe there are royal family members watching us." Another person shrank his neck, a look of fear on his face, and looked behind him unconsciously.
Everyone was silent for a moment, feeling a little frightened when they thought of the majesty and methods of the royal family.
Bai Jin: I'm not here, who is impersonating me to commit fraud?
Bai Jin and Jiang Yunjiu looked at each other, and a hint of thought flashed in each other's eyes.
The next day, I arrived at the entrance of Wanbao Pavilion and found that it was extremely luxurious.
The towering building has carved beams and painted rafters, and the vermilion gate is inlaid with golden rivets. Above the gate hangs a huge plaque with three large characters "Wanbao Pavilion" written in a flamboyant style.
The towering building is magnificent, its glazed tiles gleaming brilliantly in the sun. On either side of the gate stand two majestic stone lions, their mouths wide open, as if guarding this treasure trove.
Bai Jin looked up at the building in front of him and couldn't help but smack his lips: "This Wanbao Pavilion is so rich!"
Jiang Yunjiu nodded slightly, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes: "Indeed, the heritage and strength of Wanbao Pavilion can be seen from this building."
The two stepped through the gate and were greeted by an interior filled with unparalleled luxury. The floor was paved with smooth sapphire slabs, and the walls were inlaid with various gemstones and precious spiritual materials, shimmering with a dazzling array of colors. In the center of the hall stood a massive statue.
There were already many people walking around in the hall, including wealthy businessmen in luxurious clothes, monks with a deep aura, and some people with mysterious identities who were hiding their whereabouts.
Bai Jin pulled Jiang Yunjiu's sleeve and said, "Yunjiu, it seems that today's auction is not simple. So many people are here for the treasure."
