The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

After Su Qingning left Huichuntang, she went to the rice shop to buy some rice and flour, and then went to the market to buy some fruits, vegetables, chicken, duck, fish and meat.

After some shopping, Su Qingning spent twenty gold coins and had one thousand six hundred and eighty gold coins left.

She thought about it and felt that there was nothing she needed to buy, so she planned to go back to the Su family.

However, when Su Qingning passed by an auction house, Jiuwei's voice suddenly came from her sea of ​​consciousness, "Master, wait."

Su Qingning stopped and asked doubtfully in her sea of ​​consciousness: "What's wrong?"

"Master, I feel something calling me three meters to your left. That thing seems to be very important to me." Kyuubi's voice was a little anxious.

Left? Su Qingning tilted her head and saw an auction house. She murmured softly, reading the five characters on the plaque, "Seven Star Auction House."

It turned out to be an auction house! Su Qingning frowned slightly, knowing that with her current wealth, it would be a foolish dream to want to buy something at an auction house.

However, since it was something her contracted beast needed, she had to get it no matter what. After making the decision, Su Qingning turned and walked straight towards the Seven Star Auction House.

The guards at the door saw a child of eight or nine years old walking towards them, and they all looked at him in surprise, then they subconsciously reached out to stop him.

"Young master, I'm sorry, this is not a place for you to play." The guard treated Su Qingning as an ordinary child. Although his words meant to drive her away, they were still polite and did not offend people.

"I have something to entrust for auction." Su Qingning said lightly with a wooden face.

When the guards heard Su Qingning say she wanted to entrust the auction, although they felt that a child like her would not be able to auction anything precious, it was not reasonable for their auction house to turn customers away. So, they had no choice but to step aside and make way.

"Please come in, young master." The guard at the door said respectfully.

It is not yet dark and the auction has not started yet. It is not the busiest time for business, so there are not many customers in the auction house.

As soon as Su Qingning entered the auction house, a servant came to greet her, "Hello, young master, is there anything I can help you with?"

"No need, I want to go shopping by myself first." Su Qingning refused.

"Okay, if you need anything, you can come to me anytime." The servant had a standard professional smile on his face, and his tone was polite and respectful, but not humble or fawning; nor did he look down on Su Qingning because she was a child.

As a result, Su Qingning had a good first impression of the Seven Star Auction House, and even had a little good impression of the owner behind it.

Su Qingning looked here and there, and on the surface it seemed like she was wandering aimlessly in the front hall, but in fact she was trying to help Jiuwei determine her location more accurately.

"Nine-tailed Fox, have you found it?" Su Qingning asked in her sea of ​​consciousness.

"Found it." Jiuwei's voice was a little excited. He pointed the way to Su Qingning, "Go forward and go up the stairs. The thing is right there."

Su Qingning followed Jiuwei's instructions and walked forward. However, when she reached the stairs and wanted to go up, she was stopped by the servant.

"Sorry, young master, you can't go up here." The servant still had a standard smile on his face, but his attitude was very firm and his tone did not allow for refusal.

Looking at the servant's attitude, Su Qingning knew that the things up there must be very precious, and she also understood that she could not go up today.

"I'm sorry, this is my first time at the auction house, so I don't understand the rules here." Su Qingning apologized apologetically, then pointed upstairs and asked curiously, "May I ask what's up there? Why can't I go up there?"

The attendant took a look at Su Qingning and felt that she was so young that she shouldn't be a threat to the auction house. Besides, the questions she asked were not unanswerable. So, he began to explain:

"Young Master, you may not know that the items displayed upstairs are all from the auction in three days. They are extremely valuable and no one outside of us is allowed up there."

"I see." Su Qingning nodded and asked, "I wonder how to participate in this auction."

"As long as you have an invitation to our Seven Star Auction, you can participate." The servant replied.

Invitation? Su Qingning frowned slightly. She didn't have an invitation at all. She might not even be able to enter the auction house.

The attendant seemed to notice Su Qingning's distress and kindly reminded her, "Young Master, if you need an invitation, there are actually two ways. The first way is to purchase it with spirit coins. One invitation costs 10,000 gold coins, and you can bring two friends with you."

Ten thousand gold coins?! Su Qingning's eyes flashed with shock, and the look she gave the servant clearly said: Are you guys robbing me?!

"Ahem..." The attendant coughed awkwardly twice and continued, "The second way is to become a seller. As long as the price of the auction item you offer exceeds 100,000 gold coins, our auction house will give you an invitation."

Su Qingning only had 1,680 gold coins on her, so she had no choice but to choose the second option.

"I have something that I want to entrust your auction house to auction." Su Qingning said.

"Okay, please come this way." The servant turned slightly and pointed to his right.

Su Qingning nodded slightly and followed the servant through the long corridor to the back hall.

A few minutes later, the two finally arrived at the door of the back hall, and the servant raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.

After a moment, a lazy voice sounded from inside the door, "Come in."

After getting permission, the servant gently pushed open the door and raised his hand to invite Su Qingning in.

As soon as she walked in, Su Qingning saw a handsome young man lying lazily on the couch like a cat. His smiling eyes were as bright as stars, and his slightly upturned mouth corners formed a charming arc.

Xie Yichen supported his cheek with one hand and lay lazily on the couch. He raised his eyes slightly to look at the person who came, and then met Su Qingning's speechless and disgusted eyes.

Why is it him? !

Su Qingning couldn't help but frown. She had a really bad impression of someone who kept staring at her when they first met.

Seeing Xie Yichen's attitude at this time, Su Qingning knew that the other party was most likely the mastermind behind the Seven Star Auction House.

Thinking of this, Su Qingning's good impression of the owner behind the Seven Star Auction House suddenly disappeared and even became negative.

However, compared to Su Qingning's disgust, Xie Yichen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he would see the child who made him feel interesting again so soon after they parted at Huichun Hall.

Haha, meeting each other twice in one day, they really are destined to meet! Xie Yichen thought so.

Fortunately, Su Qingning didn’t know what Xie Yichen was thinking, otherwise, she would definitely roll her eyes at him and retort: ​​Haha, what a bad fate.
