No matter what, Li Yue was now her man.

As for Nangong Xiu, he was Senior Sister's man.

How could she say that in the twenty-first century, Jingjing was unrivalled in any area, surpassing Liang Jing?

As a result, she secretly hoped that she would be able to win the bid.

However, to be honest, if Li Yue were to bid for Nangong Xiu, who knew when the next time he would see Nangong Xiu would be.

Thus, she was at a loss as to what to do first.

"Fifty thousand silver!"

Jing Jing's thoughts were interrupted by a voice that sounded a little strange.

Jingjing turned around and saw that it was the Prince Yu.

Why did he come to join the liveliness?

Sure enough, Li Yue also said in a neutral tone, "Don't you think that thing is useless? Why are you still competing? "

The Prince Yu laughed as well. "Since you're going to compete, there's always a reason for you. I'll help you raise the price so that you can join in on the fun, no?"

He paused for a moment, his fan-like eyelashes raised, looking like Li Yue, and laughed softly, "Besides, you have already patted it, which proves that it is not useless. If you slap it back, a smile from the King will do."

Your sister...

Jingjing secretly rolled her eyes countless times.

Fifty thousand gold was equal to five hundred thousand silver, and it was all for the sake of that old man, the Swallow King?

Were the gold of these people picked up from the ground, or were they just excrement?

I wonder how much of the cream they have collected.

Thinking to this point, Jingjing looked at the two of them with disdain.

He could not help but think to himself, why would Nangong Xiu want to bid for this item?

Was it also to take it back, or was Sister Bo smiling?

Thinking to this point, Jingjing looked over with a face full of envy.

Li Yue, on the other hand, did not make a sound because of the price offered.

He looked down and saw the masked man say without hesitation, "Five thousand …"

"Phew …"

The scene was once again in an uproar.

"Then... "Ten thousand taels!" There was no more sound from Li Yue, but the Duke of Yu's strength had increased by so much.

In other words, this Wordless Book had already been sold for a high price of 60,000 taels?

Thinking up to this point, not only did Jingjing manage to swallow two mouthfuls of saliva.

Such a high amount of silver … Can you afford it?

"Seventy thousand."

The masked man seemed to be able to maintain his composure. Calm and composed, he slowly increased the amount, but he did not raise it.

"Ninth brother, are you not going to come out?"

The Prince Yu was prepared to make a bid, but seeing that Li Yue didn't have any intention of making a move, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

Li Yue shook his head and said indifferently, "A gentleman doesn't want to rob others."

The Prince Yu smiled. In the quiet hall, he said in a voice that everyone could barely hear, "That's right. A gentleman doesn't want to be the best."

"Then... Seventy thousand silver, is there any higher price? " Xiao Xin asked twice, but no one answered.

Jing Jing was a little disappointed with Li Yue, but she still looked at the masked man in envy.

He even thought to himself, I have to keep insisting on bringing senior sister back, isn't that right?

Perhaps in this time and space, senior apprentice-sister will have a very good time and will be very happy?

Jing Jing was shocked by her own thoughts.

Impossible, absolutely impossible. Senior sister had said that she would spend her entire life trying to make the secret service personnel lose their jobs.

Senior Sister must really want to go back.

However … She was a good man.

Jingjing watched as Little Xin personally brought the Wordless Heavenly Book in front of the masked man.

He bent his knees and said, "Esteemed guest, 70,000 taels. May I ask if you are paying in cash or paying for your ticket?"

The masked man's mask flashed under the light. He looked at Xiao Xin and said faintly, "Let's examine the goods first."

Saying so, he extended a pair of neatly trimmed hands in front of Xiao Xin, "Give it to me."

Xiao Xin's black eyes flashed, and after a slight hesitation, she said with a smile, "Of course."

She probably thought that with so many pairs of eyes, this masked man wouldn't be able to pull off any tricks.

Thus, after a slight moment of hesitation, he handed the Wordless Book to the masked man.

He took it and the corner of his lips, which were not covered by the mask, formed a beautiful curve.

He couldn't help but cast a sidelong glance at the fatty beside him.

That fatty looked like he was enlisted that day, but he clearly wasn't.

Other than the shape of his body, his appearance didn't resemble anything else.

However, for some unknown reason, the masked man seemed to feel an inexplicable sense of subservience towards the man beside him. He didn't know whether it was Jingjing's misconception or not.

The masked man took a yellowed book from her hands and flipped through a few pages.

However, when he saw the strange character, he nodded his head in satisfaction.

"Customer, have you finished?"

Xiao Xin asked worriedly when she saw him like this.

The man nodded with a smile and said, "I've finished."

Saying that, he stood up.

Xiao Xin nervously took a step forward.

He suddenly stopped and said to the chubby follower beside him, "Give me your ticket!"

An expensive note was a large amount of silver.

The chubby follower at the side awkwardly nodded his head and said to Xiao Xin, "Lady, please, please come to my side to get it."

With that, he began to feel for his clothes with his fat hands.

After searching for a long time, he only found ten thousand taels and passed it to Xiao Xin first. Xiao Xin was slightly unhappy, but she didn't show it on her face. She stood there patiently, waiting.

The masked man seemed to get impatient. He said to Fatty, "You take your time. I'll leave first."

As he spoke, he flipped over from the second floor and, with a leap, went down to the first floor.

"Wait a minute — —" Xiao Xin's expression changed as she reached out to grab the fatty and spoke to the guards downstairs.

The guards upstairs and downstairs were all hidden in the shadows, or disguised as guests amongst the crowd.

Therefore, the man in the mask had clearly seen everything that had just happened.

At this time, when he jumped down, the guards naturally saw him.

One by one, they nervously surrounded him and began to fight.

The Wordless Book in the masked man's hand had long since been hidden somewhere on his body.

He could only watch as his azure robe fluttered in the air in the spacious hall on the first floor.

The guests inside had long since hidden themselves through the secret passageway.

Only the customers in the private room on the second floor and the ones on the third floor did not hide. Instead, they stood there and watched the show.

By comparison, grabbing Fatty's cicada was a little hard on him.

The customers surrounded her one by one, causing Xiao Xin to feel crowded.

However, that fatty did not do anything.

He only shook his hands and said, "Don't, don't do it, I have silver. Come, you, wait, let me go, I'll help you find it, don't, don't hurt my master."

How could Xiao Xin be willing to comply?

She was usually gentle and gentle, but now, she had a look of anger on her face.

"You guys are obviously trying to take advantage of this situation. Since you have the money, why did your master leave?"

After saying that, she viciously chopped at the fatty's neck.

This Xiao Xin looked extremely weak, but she was an expert at it.

The force behind this strike was absolutely incredible.

Even if it was a martial arts expert, if he received such a slap, he would have fainted on the spot.

However, the seemingly clumsy Fatty had originally been standing there.

From the looks of it, he would not be able to escape from this palm no matter how hard he tried.

Just as the nearby people were feeling the pain for him, and just as Xiao Xin's hand was about to reach him, her hand was grabbed.

Fatty's hand shot out like lightning from a place you could never have imagined.

Two fingers pinched Xiao Xin's white wrist, laughing, "Although you are very beautiful, don't even think about touching me. If my wife finds out about this, it will be terrible."

Xiao Xin was not only a practitioner, her kung fu was not weak.

After all, if a girl in a place like this didn't have one or two skills to defend herself, then she would have to wait for people to bully her.

However, her hand that was brimming with strength had been gripped by this stupid and clumsy fatty with just two fingers.

How infuriating.

She was so angry that her face turned red as she looked at Fatty in puzzlement, "You …" You really are all scammers. Hurry up and return the Wordless Book to me. I won't sell it. Come on … They are liars, arrest them quickly. "

Xiao Xin's hand was already twisted, but it was a pity that she had such a pair of thin, moon-like wrists.

That pair of delicate, white face was also distorted by the pain.

It didn't look that good.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk …"

Jingjing had originally been looking at this thrilling scene seriously, considering if she should lend a helping hand if the masked man's side were to lose later on.

While he was lost in thought, he heard a regretful sigh.

With a frown on his face, he turned to look at the person who had interrupted him.

He only saw that pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, as if she was watching a good show.

He looked at her and said, "Look at you, what are you planning? It's such a pity that that little beauty Xiao Xin's image has been ruined. I'm afraid I won't want to see her again."

After which, he shook his head regretfully, "You've already succeeded, why are you still not making your move?"

"Who said I didn't attack?" Li Yue was silent for a moment before he asked the Prince Yu in a good mood.

A surprised look flashed across the Prince Yu's eyes as he smiled and said, "Oh? The person is yours? "

Li Yue smiled but didn't say anything. It could be said that he had tacitly agreed.

Listening to the duo's strange conversation, Jingjing thought for a moment and then understood.

It looks like eighty to ninety percent of the Wordless Book is fake.

This was all a trap, and the guards from Tassel Pavilion were most likely all from Li Yue's side.

Otherwise, why would Manager Zheng still be able to stand there and watch leisurely?

However, Jingjing could understand all the problems, and there was one thing that she wasn't clear on.

That was, if Li Yue knew that Nangong Xiu was interested in the Wordless Heavenly Book, it would be true.

However, how did he know that Nangong Xiu would not have the money to pay him?

What if he lets someone else bid?

Could it be … He knew that Nangong Xiu could not afford such a price?

No wonder, just now, both he and the Prince Yu were bidding in such a relaxed manner.
