Chapter 716: Lu Yunxiao Said: I Injured Someone and Compensated Them 100 Million
Zi Yi was stunned for two seconds and smiled. She quickly gave him a peck on the lips and said, “I only wanted to see how capable the women from the Mei Race are in the art of seduction.”
“They will bring her out later and you can take a look.” Lu Jingye added. “You don’t have to learn from her.”
His wife had no awareness of how attractive and charming she was and he was vexed over this.
Zi Yi dismissed the idea of bidding for the woman after Lu Jingye said that and she continued looking through the auction list.
The items put up for auction were basically not suitable to be exposed to the public. Therefore, even if a customer manages to bid for the item, the clubhouse would keep their identity secret and would not reveal any information about the buyer.
Zi Yi liked this aspect very much.
The two of them did not wait for long until the auction started.
The first item for auction was a martial arts sword from Country R.
“This martial arts sword was used by the most famous general in Country R and it’s said that he has been using this sword ever since he started going to war…”
The host started boasting about the sword as if it was a mythical sword. Zi Yi muttered to herself, “This sword merely contains a few elements that make it harder than ordinary swords and yet, it is being described as if it is a mythical sword? If I were to add some elements not available on Earth, wouldn’t it be invincible in this world?”
Lu Jingye was amused by his wife’s roasting and said, “Usually people from Country R would purchase this type of sword. It can be considered as spiritual sustenance.”
After the host finished introducing that martial arts sword, sure enough, several people started bidding for it.
Unexpectedly, the final auction price was higher than Zi Yi had thought it would be.
The second auction item was the woman from the Mei Race.
She was scantily dressed and only her key areas were covered. Moreover, she wore small bells around her wrists, ankles, and waist. She was locked up in a golden cage and pushed out onto the stage by the staff.
The woman was indeed pretty, and in particular, those eyes of hers seemed to possess the ability to attract people.
Instantly, the audience was stirred.
Zi Yi looked into that woman’s eyes for a few seconds before she turned to look at Lu Jingye sitting next to her.
She did not expect to make eye contact with him.
Zi Yi pushed his arm. “Ah Jing, why aren’t you looking at that woman?”
“She’s not as attractive as you are.”
Zi Yi’s lips slightly curved up and she nodded confidently. “That’s right, she’s not as attractive as I am. Moreover, I discovered something. That woman’s eyes can hypnotize people.”
Lu Jingye was not surprised and nodded.
Zi Yi pulled his sleeve again. “Ah Jing, is the patriarch of the Mei Race a man or a woman?”
“A Man.”
Zi Yi did not ask anything else. She had more or less guessed what the organization trained these women for.
The audience started to raise their bids.
The competition was very fierce.
In the end, the final auction price was more than 100 million.
“These people are bidding for her and the most likely usage for her would be to be given away, right?”
“Yes.” Lu Jingye saw how curious his wife was and added. “If she was to be sent to aristocratic families, it would reap them great benefits.”
The bidding time for the Mei Race woman was rather long and it took some time before the next item was auctioned.
The item auctioned was a piece of special crystal, which was what Zi Yi needed.
There were not many bidders for this item, but there seemed to be someone who was fighting over the item with Zi Yi. Every time Zi Yi raised her number plate, the other party would do the same.
When the price of the item exceeded the base price by severalfold, many people were surprised.
Zi Yi furrowed her brows.
Lu Jingye asked, “Does that female worm know what items can be used to block her sonic soundwave?”
“She knows, but she doesn’t know that what we need can be extracted from this crystal. It’s likely that the female worm sent people here to bid for anything that was related to energy stones.”
After Lu Jingye heard what she said, he took the number plate from her hands and drew a symbol on it before he held up the plate.
Zi Yi was curious as to what he drew the symbol for.
Subsequently, the host’s excited voice sounded. “We have customers bidding 500 million for this crystal. Is there anyone else bidding a higher price?”
His words immediately caused a great commotion.
The crystal’s base price was only 500k and yet, right now it has increased to 500 million!
The other party hesitated but ended up adding an additional 10 million.
Lu Jingye added another stroke on the number plate.
The host’s excited voice sounded once again. “That customer has increased the bidding price to 600 million. Does the other customer intend to continue increasing the price?”
The whole auction house went silent.
Even though the participants of this auction were all rich bosses, who would pay 600 million for a stone that was of no use in their eyes?
When the host did not see the other party raising the number plate, he started counting down, and soon, Lu Jingye had successfully bid for the crystal.
Everyone in the auction house was guessing who had gotten the piece of stone.
The host started introducing the next auction item.
Just then, Lu Jingye received Lu Yunxiao’s phone call. Lu Jingye answered it and then said to Zi Yi, “Yunxiao encountered some trouble on his end. The third floor is controlled by a magnetic space field.”
Zi Yi said, “I’ll get Shadow and Little Loli to assist him.”
Having said that, she took out her phone and quickly sent Shadow and Little Loli a message.
The auction continued and in the latter part of the auction, they managed to bid successfully for two other items.
They managed to get the remaining two items at a low price.
Lu Yunxiao only managed to meet with them when it was the second half of the auction.
He said to the two of them, “Things on my end have been settled.”
Lu Jingye patted his shoulders and said, “Take a seat and rest. We’ll go back once the auction is over.”
Lu Yunxiao nodded his head and sat down.
None of them were interested in the remaining items put up for auction. When the auction ended, Lu Jingye made a phone call and got one of his bodyguards to collect the items, while they left the venue.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they reached the entrance, they were stopped by a manager.
“Sir, my boss told me to hand this over to you. He mentioned that his sister is not sensible and hopes that you can forgive her. If you visit the clubhouse in the future, you can enjoy the VIP service.”
The manager handed them a black card laced with gold and there were the words VIP printed on it.
Zi Yi looked at the card and asked curiously, “Yunxiao, what did you do?”
Lu Yunxiao said, “I injured someone and compensated them 100 million.”
“Oh, if you hurt an innocent person, you should indeed compensate them.” Not to mention, it was the younger sister of the clubhouse owner. However, Zi Yi was more concerned about something else. “Was she badly hurt?”
Lu Yunxiao did not know how to explain and so he kept his mouth shut.
Zi Yi saw his behavior and subconsciously looked at Lu Jingye.
Lu Jingye asked, “What did you do?”
Lu Yunxiao replied, “I put a knife against her waist and chopped the back of her neck.”
Lu Jingye concluded. “He tore the skin on the young lady’s waist and injured her neck.”
Zi Yi was silent for a few seconds before she asked with a complicated expression, “…So you compensated the other party 100 million?”
Lu Yunxiao nodded his head expressionlessly.
Zi Yi felt her heartache.
Wasn’t Lu Yunxiao obviously taken advantage of? It’s no wonder the boss would feel bad and gift them a VIP card.
