Jiang Ming was wrapping his arms around the shoulder of Yang Liqin. They were still naked and only had a small blanket that covered their body parts.
Jiang Ming held a leisure attitude as he wished to continue to indulge himself in the warmth of Yang Liqin.
However, Yang Liqin was glaring at him when he refused to answer her doubt.
"Seriously, Jiang Ming, what are you going to do now? Sooner or later, the incident regarding you with the Skartoom would be exposed." She said in a worried tone.
"Rest assured, aunt. I'm not going to be a sitting duck and let that happen," Jiang Ming smiled and planted a small peck on her cheek.
"I will set up an auction as soon as the investigation with Instructor Yuan Chunhua is over." He added.
"An auction?"
Jiang Ming nodded his head.
He proceeded to act suspiciously as he leaned close to her ear, "I have looted every part of the Skartoom's corpse and all of them are valuables. We can increase our reputation and value by conducting an auction event."
Jiang Ming had expected his aunt to praise his business talent, but expectations were always a disappointment.
Instead of receiving praise for his mindset, Yang Liqin gave him a fierce pinch in the waist, causing him to stand up from the couch.
Since he was bare-naked at the moment, there wasn't any fabric to help minimize the pain a little bit.
"What was that for?" Jiang Ming asked in confusion, ignoring the fact that his rod was in full view for her to see.
Yang Liqin wasn't in the mood to care about his exposure as she held a fierce glint.
"Auction this, auction that. I swear, Jiang Ming, sometimes I can't help but wonder if you're an idiot." Yang Liqin said coldly.
And she continued, "Although our reputation and backing are good at the moment, that doesn't mean we are still safe if other powerful clans decide to form an alliance to attack us."
"Now why would they suddenly form an alliance?"
"Because of you, Jiang Ming."
"What did I do?"
Yang Liqin breathed out an exhausted sigh as she stood up, using the blanket to cover herself in the meantime.
"Jiang Ming, you have been too arrogant lately. The other clans had long deemed you as an eyesore, but because of your confusing relationship with the emperor, they hadn't dared to make a move yet." She tried her best to explain their current situation.
They were no longer the same as in the past when they had absolutely nothing. They are now someone who is climbing to the top of the social class at a rapid rate.
And people are prone to jealousy whenever they see someone becoming successful.
Sometimes, it would even cause them to go through extreme measures such as sending assassins or boycotting their business.
"Anyway, Jiang Ming, even though I believe in your abilities. There are still more powerful people hidden around us." Yang Liqin said as she caressed his cheek.
"I understand your worry, aunt." Jiang Ming smiled lightly.
Seeing how she would constantly worry about his safety, Jiang Ming decided to scan through the system store, seemingly looking for some item.
A few minutes later, Jiang Ming found something interesting in the list.
<Exclusive Event: Pearl Necklace>
<Pearl Necklace: A unique item that is embedded in the finest pearl found deep in the Atlas Ocean. The pearl had a special effect of automatically creating a barrier for the host and laid a tracker on the person they wished to spy on- the perfect item for a pervert~>
–
'An exclusive event item? I didn't know it was still possible to have an exclusive event here.' Jiang Ming thought.
The Pearl Necklace was clad in sparkly string and seemed perfect as an accessory for women.
However, what attracted him the most was the ability to track someone down.
Of course, he wasn't planning on spying on anyone or using it for something lewd like the system had mentioned in the description.
He already has a beautiful and sexy aunt, Yang Liqin.
'Let's check how much it cost…'
Ding!
<Pearl Necklace Price: 1 million spirit stones>
<Very cheap! If Player Jiang Ming is stingy about the price, then he should honestly fuck off and stop wasting my time>
–
"What happened, Jiang Ming?" Yang Liqin suddenly asked when she noticed his face had darkened.
"N-N-Nothing, aunt." Jiang Ming tried to keep his cool.
He smiled at her and the moment he saw her face that was once again filled with worry, Jiang Ming knew what he had to do.
When you love someone, no matter the price it shall be, as long as it makes your significant other clear of worry, then it's a must-buy item.
'Go to hell GLCS!' Jiang Ming cursed inwardly while clicking on the purchase button.
Ding!
<Player Jiang Ming had successfully bought the Pearl Necklace>
<Pearl Necklace had been delivered to Player Jiang Ming's inventory>
–
Instantly, Jiang Ming opened his inventory and sure enough, the Pearl Necklace was there.
"At least this time it wasn't a scam…" he muttered.
"What was that?"
"Well, there is something, aunt." Jiang Ming extended his hand and grabbed her waist.
Pulling her gently to his side, Jiang Ming planted a surprise kiss on her lip.
At the same time, he took out the Pearl Necklace from his inventory and skillfully wrapped it around her neck during the kiss.
Meanwhile, Yang Liqin managed to pull away from him when she felt a cold surrounding her neck.
When she noticed it was a necklace, she stared at Jiang Ming in disbelief.
"What is this for?" She asked.
"This is my way of saying thanks and a solution to your constant worry." Jiang Ming carried her and sat down on the couch.
With her naked body sitting on his lap, Jiang Ming proceeded to explain the Pearl Necklace's function.
"So what do you think of my gift, aunt?" He asked smirkingly.
"I love it," Yang Liqin flashed a smile as she kissed him softly.
Soon, the room was filled with the same love scent whereas the Pearl Necklace around her neck began to blink in a green color, indicating that it had planted a tracker.
