C230 The Auction for the Jade Tools Begins
Xiao Chen's facial expression was very calm. These things didn't mean much to him.
Therefore, he didn't care what kind of thoughts Jian Shi had. He just wanted to do his job well. Now that he had come to the auction, he would take part in it seriously without any other thoughts.
At this moment, Jian Shi had gained complete respect for Xiao Chen from the bottom of his heart. It could be said that he had been subdued by Xiao Chen's talent and bearing.
Initially, when Hwa Qiye gave him the order to follow Xiao Chen, he was still somewhat unconvinced, because he had never heard of Xiao Chen before.
Although it was Hwa Qiye, the young general, who personally called him, in his opinion, he was just a person who relied on the prestige of Hwa family to tyrannically abuse Wuling.
When Xiao Chen showed his skills previously, he was indeed a little surprised, but when he thought about how Hwa family was originally a family of generals, it was not strange for them to have a few friends who knew martial arts.
Later, Xiao Chen came to the government building to look for him for work. In fact, he was also testing Xiao Chen. He did not expect that Xiao Chen would not be interested in girls at such a young age and would not be interested in his two secretaries.
He was also very concerned about the development of the people in Wuling. When he went out for a vacation, Xiao Chen showed respect to his ancestors. He had never seen such respect before.
And that kind of expression could not be faked. If Xiao Chen was really pretending, it meant that Xiao Chen's acting skills were very good. At least, he did not show any flaws in front of the mayor who had seen countless people.
Come on! The auction originally intended to embarrass Xiao Chen, but he didn't expect Xiao Chen to be so proficient in antiques. This really made him feel a little amazed.
But now, Xiao Chen had helped him a lot. If he was still dissatisfied with Xiao Chen, he would feel that he wasn't a human anymore.
"Mr. Xiao, I am here to apologize for what happened earlier. I am really sizing up a gentleman's heart with a petty heart. If you are unhappy... I will do as you wish. Any request you make... I will definitely not frown!" Jian Shi said sincerely to Xiao Chen.
Qiang walked over and said, "Mr. Xiao, I also had other thoughts about you. Please punish me!"
Xiao Chen did not speak in a hurry. He smiled and said,
"I know that. It is normal for you to have some thoughts about me. Now, all of you have realized your mistakes. That's enough. Actually, I came here to gain experience, so you can create trouble for me. I'm also very happy about that."
Jian Shi and Qiang looked at each other when they heard Xiao Chen talk about training. They could roughly guess that Xiao Chen was probably the disciple of a supreme expert, an unborn expert. So they hurriedly apologized again, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Xiao. We misunderstood you because we were blind!"
"Alright, there's no need to say anymore. This matter will pass just like that. There's no need to mention it again in the future." Xiao Chen bowed and said.
Jian Shi and Qiang quickly nodded and did not continue the topic.
It was time for the jade to be displayed.
Before the display even started, many people's blood was already boiling.
Some people even shouted like they were going to watch some movie stars' live concerts or something, "Miss Mengruo, I love you! Just like mice love rice!"
"Miss Mengruo, you are like an angel descending to the mortal world! I love you to the point that I want to cry! "
"Miss Mengruo..."
Xiao Chen felt goosebumps all over his body when he heard these nauseating words. Only then did he realize that Yi Mengruo was so popular.
But wasn't this an antique auction? So these people weren't here to look at antiques, but beautiful women?
When Xiao Chen thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy. Such a person who didn't have a sense of respect coming to such a scene was more or less tarnishing these antiques.
However, all of this couldn't be controlled by him. He wasn't a saint, so there was no need for him to ask others to be saints.
Thus, this emotion was quickly calmed down by Xiao Chen.
After three beauties wearing cheongsam walked onto the stage, the atmosphere in the entire auction hall seemed to be ignited in an instant, as if it had reached a climax.
Among them, the most eye-catching and beautiful one was naturally Yi Mengruo.
Xiao Chen who was sitting on the grandstand could not help but take a few glances. Of course, he only saw that Yi Mengruo's legs seemed to be a little abnormal and slightly slanted.2
But this matter seemed to have been covered up very well by her, so ordinary people still could not see it.
Just as Xiao Chen was staring at her legs, Yi Mengruo's eyes also stopped on Xiao Chen's face.
Now that she saw Xiao Chen staring at her, Yi Mengruo could not help but smile.
She thought to herself that Xiao Chen was also a man. He would still be moved when he saw her. He had just been hiding his feelings when he bought pearls over there.
When she smiled, the crowd below instantly boiled up again.
"Miss Meng Ru smiled!"
"She must be smiling at me!"
"Go f * ck yourself! She is smiling at me!" The man who stopped Xiao Chen shouted.
Because his body was too strong, no one dared to continue speaking when they heard him speak.
After discovering Yi Mengruo's illness, Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze. He suddenly felt a little strange. There seemed to be some special aura on Yi Mengruo's body that attracted him. Why would he notice that her legs were not feeling well when he was standing so far away?
However, Xiao Chen did not think too much about it. He always followed the belief that everything would go with the flow. No matter how much he thought about it, it was not as good as any development.
For things like fate and fate, if one said he did not believe it, it would be a lie. There was a saying that said, When you have a plan, you have to do it. When you have a plan, you have to do it.
Xiao Chen had always firmly believed in this saying. It did not matter whether it was when he was the God of War in wars all over the world or when he returned to the country to practice medicine and save people.
Or now, when he completed the task given by the mysterious person outside, he could feel that some things seemed to have some sort of arrangement in the dark.
"Now all the jade antiques have been displayed. Miss Yi Mengruo, please come up to the stage and auction them!" After the host finished speaking, Yi Mengruo walked to the center of the stage with a smile on her face.
Almost everyone's eyes were focused on her. It could be said that she was the center of attention.
A peerless beauty like her would make people look at her wherever she went.
Not to mention men, even some women might be captivated by her.
Of course, there were also people present who did not put their eyes on her. Xiao Chen was one of them.
