After everything was arranged, Xuanyuan Chen, Xie Qingrong, and the other two followed Shang Zhiqing and left the Mo Bei through another small path, past Wu Huan's army, and gradually stepped onto the road to Yongzhou.
Along the way, in order to catch up to Mo Yun and enter the Yongzhou City first, the four of them travelled day and night simultaneously without any rest time.
However, just as they entered the Yongzhou City, Xie Qingrong, Xuanyuan Chen and the rest of them were blocked by a single person.
"My master invites you. Please follow me."
That person's attitude was neither haughty nor humble. Xie Qingrong was suspicious and was about to reject.
Shang Zhiqing suddenly appeared beside Shen Haoxuan, her eyes squinted as she sized up the person who appeared out of nowhere, as though she had confirmed his identity, and the man was also being observed by Shang Zhiqing, causing both Xie Qingrong and Xuanyuan Chen to be suspicious.
However, after Shang Zhiqing gave her a closer look, she agreed.
Shen Haoxuan's heart was slightly uneasy. He took a step forward and pulled on Shang Zhiqing's sleeves, indicating that she should not sit down and decide.
Shen Haoxuan was startled for a moment, then let go of his sleeves. He had no objections to Shang Zhiqing agreeing to this person's request.
Although Xie Qingrong was suspicious of this person's identity, she saw that Shang Zhiqing had agreed. Thinking about it, maybe Shang Zhiqing had already guessed this person's identity, and swallowed down the words she wanted to say to probe further.
After following the person for a while, Xie Qingrong realized that this path was somewhat familiar. After walking into that familiar place and seeing the signboard on top of the signboard, Xie Qingrong finally reacted and couldn't help but laugh.
He never thought that it would actually be the Yongzhou Auction House. Seems like the owner that this person mentioned should be the boss behind the scenes, the mysterious boss who only had a reputation but had never seen the real person.
After bringing Xuanyuan Chen and the rest to the door of the room, he left.
Xuanyuan Chen was the first to push open the door, and a faint aroma of tea drifted out from the room, causing one to feel relaxed and happy.
After smelling the aroma of the tea, the displeasure in Xie Qingrong's heart due to the invitation of the uninvited guest dissipated slightly. Someone who could soak the tea leaves in such a fragrant smell was definitely not a simple person.
The room's decorations couldn't be considered magnificent. It could only be said to be simple and elegant with a strong sense of antiquity. The fine mahogany wood accentuated the solemnity and elegance of the room's interior structure.
Sitting on the chair was a man around the age of twenty. He had a pair of white and slender hands that were holding a blue and white porcelain tea cup.
The man's face couldn't be considered handsome; it could only be called handsome. However, the smile that formed the corner of his mouth made him seem like an enigmatic person.
Xie Qingrong stared at the man in front of him without batting an eyelid, the enigmatic aura that shrouded her body seemed to be in danger.
However, he heard a familiar voice: "Little Big Brother."
The voice came out from Shang Zhiqing's mouth, Xie Qingrong lightly glanced at Shang Zhiqing, and quickly placed her gaze on the man in front of him. Hearing Shang Zhiqing's name, the man's smile became wider.
The tea lid was gently pushed aside and he closed his eyes slightly. His long eyelashes trembled slightly as he took a light sip. It seemed that he was enjoying the moment.
Put the teacup gently aside.
This set of movements was fluid and fluid, causing one to be delighted in seeing it. It turned out that there was actually someone who was able to achieve such elegance from drinking tea. This was truly quite interesting.
"Sis is being naughty again." The man's clear voice was like a cool breeze that blew over, blowing on their hearts.
However, Xuanyuan Chen frowned, his intuition told him that the man in front of him was not simple, and was extremely dangerous.
Indeed, in the next moment, the man immediately appeared in front of Xuanyuan Chen, his long fingers already reaching towards Xuanyuan Chen's throat. Xuanyuan Chen did not give way, and tightly held the man's fingers in his palm.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time.
A quarter of an hour later, the man suddenly chuckled and said: "You are indeed worthy of being a Heavenly Saint's Prince Chen. You are as famous as a Chu Country. Seeing you today, you are definitely extraordinary."
Xuanyuan Chen curled his lips, and her pair of extremely enchanting phoenix eyes slightly opened. The curve on the tail of her eyes seemed to pick out a few wisps of a gorgeous color.
Laughing lightly, he said, "Young Master Shang, you are flattering me. "Young Master Shang is the dragon among men. I am truly impressed by him for being able to bring the management of this auction house to its peak."
The two of them praised each other as if they were close friends. However, only they themselves knew that this was just a test for the other.
"Little big brother, you called us here …" Shang Zhiqing saw that the two of them had finished probing, and immediately asked, only then did he remember the rules, and immediately went silent.
Shen Haoxuan looked at Shang Zhiqing's expression as if he was a mouse seeing a cat, and was a little surprised in his heart. The Shang Zhiqing he saw, had a face that could never compare to a normal person's, confidence and pride, but had never seen her so afraid.
Just how strong was this Young Master Shang in front of me that he could cause Shang Zhiqing to reveal his true appearance?
Shang Wuying naturally noticed the probing gazes that landed on his body, but he had seen these stares too many times, she had never paid attention to them before.
His gaze swept across Shen Haoxuan's body without leaving a trace, and very quickly landed on Shang Zhiqing's body. Looking at Shang Zhiqing's somewhat fearful expression, she felt extremely helpless in her heart.
However, he had once threatened her, and now that she had grown up, why was he still so afraid of her?
But this man?
Was it his son's choice?
"Sis, what are you doing in the Yongzhou instead of going out to train?" Shang Wuying asked indifferently, the expression in his eyes extremely indifferent, as if she was asking an extremely simple question.
But such a simple question, made Shang Zhiqing's face immediately turn pale white.
Before coming here, she had already expected to meet her little brother, but he had never paid much attention to the matters of the Shang family. He had been running the auction outside for so many years and had never returned to the Shang family.
He thought that his little big brother wouldn't pay attention to him. He didn't expect that he would actually ask him about it.
What should she do?
Shang Wuying squinted his eyes, her gaze swept across Shang Zhiqing's face and saw the panic in her eyes, as well as the struggle to hide it.
Smiling slightly, he said softly, "Qing Er, I don't wish for Qing Er to find any random reason to lie to you. Do you understand? "
Shang Zhiqing was slightly intimidated by Shang Wuying, she took a deep breath and suppressed the churning emotions in her heart, then closed her eyes and truthfully answered: "Little big brother, I plan to end my training early and return to the Shang Clan."
Saying so, he lowered his head and clenched his hands into fists. Shen Haoxuan seemed to have sensed something. From his line of sight, he could see that Shang Zhiqing's eyes were downcast, but her long eyelashes were trembling uncontrollably.
It seemed to be worried and afraid?
