There were quite a few people at the underground auction, and everyone was sizing each other up, weighing in their minds which one was worth befriending.

After Lu Qingyun got out of the car, many people looked at her.

The boy was aloof and dignified, with a straight back and long, straight legs. His handsome features alone were enough to amaze everyone. Even though he was wearing a mask and his face was obscured, no one dared to underestimate him.

This person's demeanor clearly indicates that he is a noble young master from a prominent family.

Many people are speculating about which family's young master Lu Qingyun is.

The person involved didn't seem to care about the stares and walked with their hands in their pockets.

As soon as she reached the door, she spotted Yuan Yu.

Lu Qingyun: ...

She subconsciously looked away, but Yuan Yu noticed her too, raised her eyebrows in surprise, and then quickly walked over.

What a tragic fate!

Lu Qingyun didn't dodge. After Yuan Yu walked up to her side, she raised her dark eyes and looked over.

You look familiar.

Yuan Yu sized up Lu Qingyun.

Do you know Lu Qingyun? Are you her brother?

Lu Qingyun raised an eyebrow. "You talk too much."

Yuan Yu: ...

Okay, no need to ask anymore, this is undoubtedly Lu Qingyun herself.

"Why are you dressed like that? You look pretty cool."

Yuan Yu smiled and gave her a flirtatious wink.

Lu Qingyun ignored her and walked straight inside. "I have something to do." Halfway there, she stopped, turned her head to look at Yuan Yu, and held up a finger in front of her. "By the way, it's best to pretend you don't know me inside."

Yuan Yu didn't understand what she was going to do, but seeing her serious expression, he nodded in agreement.

After Lu Qingyun went inside, she found her seat and sat down. Coincidentally, Yuan Yu was sitting next to her.

This……

This must be fate.

Yuan Yu smiled secretly, while Lu Qingyun rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on.

-

Elegant room.

Looking at the scene below, Tang Qin said to Gu Jinming, "Master Jin, we have just spotted three suspicious individuals. I have already instructed the security personnel to prepare."

Gu Jinming nodded slightly as he looked at the surveillance footage.

Zhou Ming stared at the screen without blinking, making a pleading gesture with his hand, "Please wait until I've bought the Primordial Spirit-Replenishing Pill before letting them cause trouble."

The Primordial Spirit-Replenishing Pill is extremely rare, and now that it has finally appeared, he certainly won't let this opportunity pass him by; he must bid for one no matter what.

It is said that there are only three Primordial Spirit-Replenishing Pills. Most of the people who came tonight are here for this medicine. Those who use slightly despicable methods might cause some trouble.

The auction has now begun.

Lu Qingyun glanced at the manual in her hand, listening to the auction on stage with great boredom.

The first few items were small gadgets, so fewer people took pictures of them.

Upon hearing about the two types of medicinal herbs, tortoise and snake and Taiyi herbs, the people in their seats couldn't help but perk up.

Lu Qingyun sat up slightly, looking at the screen on the stage, her eyes narrowed slightly.

Seeing Lu Qingyun's expression, Yuan Yu cautiously moved closer. Seeing that no one was paying attention, she whispered, "Do you want to buy this?"

"Ah."

Lu Qingyun deliberately kept her distance from her, only giving a soft "hmm".

"I see a lot of people want it, so it'll probably be hard to get a picture of it."

Yuan Yu had come to the auction with his family a few times and knew that popular items like these were usually very difficult to acquire.

Lu Qingyun raised an eyebrow. "That's not necessarily true."

Hearing Lu Qingyun's confident tone, Yuan Yu touched his nose and remained silent.

ten minutes later.

Yuan Yu stared in disbelief as Lu Qingyu won the bid for the two medicinal herbs, Tortoise and Snake and Taiyi Hundred Herbs, at a high price.

Little Qingqing, are you really that rich?

I'm trying to curry favor with someone powerful.

Despite the envy, even someone as oblivious as Yuan Yu could feel the gazes of others constantly sweeping towards Lu Qingyun after she won both medicinal herbs.

This goes without saying for Lu Qingyun herself.

Yuan Yu was no innocent bystander; she glanced at Lu Qingyun with some concern.

"As the auction progresses, I imagine many of you are asking me, 'Didn't you say you had the Primordial Spirit-Replenishing Pill? Why haven't we heard anything about it yet? Don't worry, everyone, our grand finale is coming soon.'"

The host on stage made a few jokes, clapped his hands, and soon a woman in a cheongsam slowly walked out carrying a tray.

As soon as the host finished speaking, many people who hadn't managed to get a picture of the tortoise and snake or Taiyi Baicao were no longer disappointed. They sat up straight and focused intently on the woman on stage.

Elegant room.

Zhou Ming clenched his fists upon seeing this, and looked at Gu Jinming, "Master Jin."

Gu Jinming's expression remained unchanged as he gently raised his hand. "Is everything ready?"

Tang Qin nodded solemnly, "Everything is ready."

Gu Jinming hummed in agreement and turned his gaze to Lu Qingyun, who was sitting further back.

I don't know where this young man is from; there doesn't seem to be anyone like him in the capital.

Perhaps his gaze was too intense, for Lu Qingyun seemed to sense it and raised her eyes, coldly sweeping them over.

Upon seeing this, Gu Jinming curled his lips into a smile.

The boy is quite perceptive.

The host on stage, holding the microphone, continued, "There are only three Primordial Spirit-Replenishing Pills available, with a starting bid of ten million."

"Fifteen million!"

"Twenty million!"

"Pshaw, really, Mr. Huang? You can afford this little bit of money? I'll offer thirty million!"

"Thirty-five million!"

"Forty million!"

Zhou Ming glanced at Gu Jinming, his thin lips slightly pursed, "Isn't that enough, Master Jin?"

Gu Jinming was still watching the monitor. "Okay, do as you please."

Zhou Ming had been talking about this medicine for a long time, and he was afraid he would go crazy if he didn't buy one to take back.

Having received a reply, Zhou Ming rubbed his hands together, pressed the button next to him, and a cheerful voice echoed in the hall.

"One hundred million."

As soon as he finished speaking, no one uttered a sound.

Who is this tycoon?

The people below the stage looked around, all wondering who had spent such a fortune.

"The voice came from the private room, and I think it's very likely that it came from the Gu family."

"Mr. Gu? Will that medicine be effective for him?"

"Who knows? But the effects of the Primordial Spirit-Replenishing Pill are at least Grade A, so it should have some effect on President Gu's body. Otherwise, they wouldn't have spent 100 million to bid for this medicine."

"As expected of President Gu, he spends 100 million yuan without hesitation."

"Ha, this little bit of money is nothing to them."

"One hundred million per time."

"One hundred million twice."

"The guest in the private room won a Primordial Spirit-Replenishing Pill for 100 million!"

Zhou Ming's expression relaxed as he saw that the medicine had been taken.

There are two left, and the competition is likely to be even fiercer, and they might even start fighting.

"One hundred million...that's fucking rich."

Yuan Yu covered her mouth, secretly surprised.

She raised the number plate in her hand, about to lift it up, when a hand with a slightly cold feel stopped her.

"Qing..."

"Don't take pictures."

"Huh? Why?"

Her budget was to acquire a Primordial Spirit-Replenishing Pill for 100 million, but why did Lu Qingyun tell her not to bid?
