"Qin Xuan, are you really going? Qi Xiang said the security at Yong Jiang Auction House today is several times tighter than yesterday, and she found out that they are all Chu Shaofan's men. I'm worried..."
Qin Xuan looked at Wang Yuyan, who was full of worry, and smiled, patting her shoulder.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Besides, didn't you say your grandfather instructed you to buy an unpolished stone back?"
"But..."
"No buts." Qin Xuan was determined to win the jade gambling auction this time.
"Trust me, I'll bring you back safely."
Wang Yuyan didn't know where Qin Xuan got his confidence. Was it just because he knew Mo Tao?
But after all, he was just a hotel manager.
"By the way, if there's a raw stone I need later, I'll need you to bid for it. This will count as a favor I owe your family," Qin Xuan said suddenly.
"Raw stone?" Wang Yuyan asked in confusion.
"You like those things too?"
Qin Xuan thought for a moment and gave a casual excuse.
"Sort of."
He couldn't tell her that he needed unpolished stones with spiritual energy for cultivation.
"Let's go, it's about to start."
The two arrived at the entrance of Yong Jiang Auction House.
There were dozens of security guards at the entrance.
Normally, there were only two people checking identities.
Wang Yuyan looked at the dozen or so security guards and said to Qin Xuan somewhat worriedly,
"Qin Xuan, maybe we should just forget it."
Qin Xuan chuckled.
"We've come this far, why would we turn back?"
Just now, Qin Xuan had clearly sensed a fluctuation of spiritual energy from the auction house.
This further solidified Qin Xuan's determination to participate in the jade gambling auction.
There were definitely stones containing spiritual energy in this auction house.
The two arrived at the entrance.
The security guards at the entrance immediately stopped them. One of them said directly,
"Please show your entry pass."
Wang Yuyan nodded, took out the entry pass, and handed it to the man.
The security guard opened it and read the name on the invitation, Wang Yuyan.
Upon seeing this, the security guard quickly exchanged glances with the others around him, then said,
"Sorry, there's a problem with your entry pass, it's suspected of being forged. We request that you both come with us."
As he spoke, the men behind him blocked Qin Xuan and Wang Yuyan's escape route.
"How could it be fake! It even has your Qian Jue Jewelry's seal!" Wang Yuyan immediately became anxious.
The tall security guard leading them smirked,
"If I say it's fake, it's fake. Please, both of you, come with us."
Qin Xuan immediately understood that these people were probably deliberately causing trouble, likely at Chu Shaofan's instruction.
"Alright, since you say it's fake, then we won't participate." Qin Xuan said, pulling Wang Yuyan's hand to leave.
However, the security guards behind them made no move to let them pass.
The tall security guard sneered,
"You think you can leave after coming here? You dared to use a fake entry pass. You're not going anywhere until this matter is clarified!"
"Take them down!"
Just as everyone was about to make a move, a furious roar suddenly rang out.
"Who dares!"
Everyone's gaze immediately shifted towards the source of the voice.
Mo Tao strode out from the auction house, glaring at the security guards.
"What are you doing!"
The tall security guard, seeing it was Mo Tao, quickly lowered his head and explained,
"Manager Mo, these two were trying to sneak in with a fake entry pass. After we discovered it, they tried to escape, so we were preparing to stop them."
"You scoundrel!"
Mo Tao slapped the tall security guard across the face with a "bang."
"These two are my friends. I personally gave them the entry passes. Do you mean to say the entry pass I received is also fake?"
"This..." The tall security guard covered his face, unable to utter a word.
"Hmph," Mo Tao snorted, then gave Qin Xuan a look.
"Go in quickly."
Qin Xuan immediately nodded and quickly pulled Wang Yuyan inside.
As he passed by Mo Tao, he heard Mo Tao's faint voice,
"The auction is over. Leave quickly. I've arranged a car for you..."
