Chapter 204 Bai Luoluo prepares to attend the dinner
They originally thought that this was just an unnecessary rule of the Jin family auction house, but today they finally saw it for themselves.
There are people outside people, and there are mountains outside mountains.
With this dramatic scene, the auction came to a memorable end.
"Just tell me, how rich and powerful is the owner of that box, to actually dare to light a sky lantern directly?"
"That is to say, I dare not even think that all this Holy Healing Spiritual Juice has been taken by the other party."
"Besides, the other party hasn't shown up yet. Why do you think that is?"
"Needless to say, you slapped the city lord in the face, how dare you reveal your identity?"
"That's right. If I were here now, I would have definitely run away."
"I'm almost sympathizing with City Lord Lie. Didn't you see he bid on a few unnecessary items today, and then didn't get any of the grand prizes at the end?"
"Haha, stop talking now, or the city lord will come to your door."
"How could such a coincidence happen in the world?"
"Uh...hello, Lord City Lord!"
As soon as Lie Xiaotian went out, gossip kept pouring into his ears. The unhappiness in his heart grew like weeds, but he had to put on his signature smile on his face and try hard to maintain his usual amiable image.
"Ah."
Lie Xiaotian's smile was somewhat stiff, and the suppressed anger in the corners of his eyes made everyone walk away quickly after exchanging a few words, walking straight towards the place that made him angry.
However, before he could go far, Jin Zishan suddenly appeared, blocked his way and stopped him in his tracks.
"City Lord Lie, the bidding for the Holy Healing Spiritual Juice was quite fierce. I didn't win it. Is it because you're short of money?"
Jin Zishan walked forward with steady steps, deliberately shaking the wine in his hand, and his eyes were so teasing that Lie Xiaotian responded with a dry laugh.
"Mr. Jin, what you said is true. In an auction, there is always a winner and a loser. Today, I was just unlucky."
He still recognizes the principle that the victors are kings and the losers are bandits, but don't be too arrogant, old man, things will change.
Jin Zishan looked at Lie Xiaotian's embarrassment and was distressed on the surface, but laughed at his worries behind his back. "Hahaha, don't take it to heart, Lord Lie. I was just joking, old man."
"If you really need this Holy Healing Spiritual Juice urgently and you're short on cash, since we're old acquaintances, my Jin family might be able to give you some on credit. Consider it a favor to an old friend."
As soon as these words were spoken, some guests around could not help but laugh. Everyone could hear the sarcasm in Jin Zishan's words.
Lie Xiaotian forced a smile again. "Thank you very much for your kindness, Mr. Jin. However, I'm not so poor as to have to buy on credit."
After saying that, he made an excuse that he had something to do and hurriedly left Jin Zishan's side and headed towards Bai Luoluo's box.
Seeing that time was almost up, Jin Zishan, with a smug smile on his face, loudly invited everyone around him, "Everyone, although the auction is over today, there is still an even more exciting dinner waiting for you!"
"I, old man, sincerely invite you all to the dinner after the auction. We can get together and have a good chat. Don't miss it!"
His words immediately attracted responses from the people around him.
"Then, old man, we will respectfully obey your orders!"
Everyone was already looking forward to the auction and was curious about what would happen next. When they heard there would be a dinner, they were naturally happy to attend.
For a moment, the atmosphere around became lively again.
Upon hearing this, Lie Xiaotian frowned slightly, a hint of barely perceptible displeasure flashed across his eyes, and then he reacted immediately and cursed in a low voice, "Damn it."
Sure enough, when he arrived, the place was already empty.
"You run so fast!!!" Lie Xiaotian crushed the door frame with force.
Bai Luoluo and Amber were following the guidance of the servant and leaving the auction venue through the convenient passage.
"Miss, the master has asked me to ask you if you would like to attend the dinner later."
Bai Luoluo weighed the pros and cons. After all, the sky lanterns had just been lit. If she went out, she would probably attract a lot of attention.
"Okay." Bai Luoluo finally nodded and agreed.
"However, I want to find a quiet temporary residence in Beast City, preferably a place that is quiet and undisturbed. Can you help arrange it for me?"
Upon hearing this, the waiter nodded respectfully to show his understanding. "Don't worry, young lady. I've made a note of it and will give you a satisfactory answer before the end of your dinner."
"Also, please rest assured that our Jin family is capable in all aspects of this Beast City. Finding such a place is not difficult."
After hearing this, Bai Luoluo nodded with satisfaction, and then the few of them headed towards the hall where the banquet was held.
On the other side, Jin Zilin stood there, pulling at the complicated and gorgeous clothes on his body, and couldn't help complaining.
"Oh, this outfit is way too cumbersome today. It's really cumbersome to wear. I feel uncomfortable all over."
"Master, isn't this your favorite style?"
"I don't like it now, okay?"
Ever since Bai Luoluo had previously complained that his clothing style was like a pure gold steamed dumpling, Jin Zilin no longer liked this luxurious yet complicated dressing style. Moreover, it was very awkward when he ran away, and he was almost caught in the sea of sand last time.
And Conis also praised him as a little white piglet tied with a gold chain, so he was able to empathize with the situation even more.
No, how can I be like a piglet?
"But Master, I'm afraid it's too late to redo it quickly."
"Okay, okay, let's forget about it today." Jin Zilin strode along sullenly. He wouldn't meet Bai Luoluo today anyway, so it didn't matter.
Jin Zilin muttered as he walked towards the banquet venue. When he passed through the open-air garden, he happened to meet several people from the Lie family.
Lie Ruier and a few others were being punished by Lie Xiaotian and were not allowed to enter the box.
As soon as Lie Ruier saw Jin Zilin, her eyes lit up slightly and an awkward but polite smile immediately appeared on her face.
"Mr. Jin, what a coincidence, we meet here."
Lie Ruier looks quite pretty and charming, and her smile looks gentle and lovely at this moment.
"..."
I ran into people from the Lie family as soon as I went out. What bad luck.
Jin Zilin simply chose to ignore it.
Lie Ruier's heart tightened. She had originally planned to use the other party's name to escape from the predicament, but she didn't expect that the other party was so heartless.
And he looked impatient. It seemed that Lie Xin'er had made him dislike the entire Lie family.
