"Dong dong dong."
"Everyone, my young lady would like to see you and see if you can enter the house."
"Please come in."
Squeak——
The door outside was slowly pushed open, and what greeted Ying Baiye and the others was an old man wearing a white robe with gold threads.
Ying Baiye seemed to have met this person before, when he learned about the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce's mission.
"Li Minghai, branch president of Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce."
Ying Baiye whispered in Lin Yu's ear.
Lin Yu did not respond, but nodded lightly, indicating that she understood.
Everyone present did not speak or exchange greetings, because they heard clearly just now that Li Minghai's voice said "my lady."
The main character hasn't appeared yet.
So, under the gaze of everyone in the room, a slightly thin figure walked out from behind Li Minghai.
The moment they saw this person, a glimmer of light flashed in the eyes of everyone present, both men and women.
It's not because of this woman's pretty appearance, but more because of her special temperament.
Quiet and gentle, this feeling seems to be very common, but when it comes to this woman, it is too suitable.
vertex
Naturally, there is no sense of violation at all.
That’s pretty much what it feels like.
The woman's appearance is very beautiful, but there are many beautiful girls in this room. Lin Yu, Su Xuan, Xue Li, Su Ling'er, Meilanzhuju, all have their own merits, not to mention...
There is a more beautiful one.
When the girl's eyes passed over everyone's faces, she obviously paused for an extra second on Ying Baiye.
Isn't this face a bit too lethal to girls?
After a brief appearance, the girl had a polite smile on her face.
"Hello everyone, my name is Yuan Chunian. Although it's very rude, but this time, I am indeed looking for you."
Get straight to the point, without any pretense in your tone.
Originally, Ying Baiye would have thought that the person coming would first tell the truth and then point out the topic, but he did not expect that he would explain the purpose of his visit so directly.
"Miss Yuan, please sit down."
After all, this is their private room for the time being, and the arrival of Yuanchu Nian can be regarded as a guest to all comers.
Yuan Chunian nodded and sat in a seat closest to the door in an educated manner. Li Minghai did not sit down, but stood skillfully behind Yuan Chunian.
Like a follower.
"My lady", does this "my family" refer to the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce?
Lynch's voice sounded quietly within the hearing range of only a few people.
"I remember that the president of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce should have the surname of 'Dong'."
"That's because I'm not a direct descendant."
As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of Yuan Chu read on the other side.
Lin Qi was slightly startled. He had used his spiritual power to accurately control the range of sound propagation, so it was impossible for him to be heard.
"Sorry, I'm actually used to your expression, so I couldn't help but answer it."
There was no displeasure in Yuan Chunian's tone. She just sat where she was and said calmly.
Lin Qi opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he couldn't.
At this time, it was Lin Yu who came to the rescue for him.
"What he said was a little out of his mind, and he was rude. Don't blame Miss Yuan."
"Of course." Yuan Chunian smiled softly. "If you don't mind, just call me by my name."
In words, the meaning of closeness is self-evident.
Lin Yu didn't speak, just nodded.
"Actually, situations like this happen every time someone sees me. Unknowingly, I have gradually gotten used to it." Yuan Chunian pursed his lips, a bit self-deprecating.
"President Li is actually complimenting me. Strictly speaking, I am not a young lady of the Dong family. I am not qualified to be named Dong."
There is no qualification for the surname Dong.
This statement only appears in one situation.
"I'm just an illegitimate daughter."
"Miss."
Li Minghai wanted to speak, but was stopped by Yuan Chunian's raised jade hand.
"Grandpa Li, I know what you want to say, but this is the truth."
Illegitimate daughter...
After hearing Yuan Chunian's self-exposure, Ying Baiye raised his eyes and glanced at her.
How should I put it, for an illegitimate daughter to be so respected by a branch president of Li Minghai's level is not something that an illegitimate daughter can do.
This woman is also an extraordinary person.
At this time, Xue Li came to Lin Yu's ear.
"According to the information from the Mission Hall, Dong Ming, the president of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce, does have an illegitimate daughter with excellent talent."
When she was discharged from the hospital, she had collected information on the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce. With Beicang Lingyuan's intelligence collection capabilities, it was still very simple to know this.
Lin Yu nodded, indicating that she understood.
To be honest, they don't care about status or anything like that.
Even if Dong Yuan, the strongest of the younger generation of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce, was here, Lin Yu would not be interested in him at all.
What she cared about was only one thing from beginning to end.
"Miss Chu Nian, what do you want from us?"
After talking so much, and telling him his identity straight to the point, it was time to explain his purpose.
"It's very simple." Yuan Chunian raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Lin Yu in front of her. She knew that this was the leader with the most say among the six people.
"cooperate."
cooperate.
It's exactly what they thought.
"But Miss Yuan's previous actions didn't seem like she wanted to cooperate."
Su Xuan said in a cold tone.
What she said was naturally the act of fishing with the auction items just now.
You want to cooperate, but you still treat them like fish?
Who are you looking down on?
"That information was originally a meeting gift that I wanted to give you, but I didn't expect that I almost missed you. I really took it for granted. I apologize."
The tone was too sincere.
Ying Baiye put his hands in his sleeves and played with his Lianhuo Jade in his sleeves.
This sincere apology went a long way in calming down some of the irritation of others.
However, Ying Baiye's focus was different.
She just said...
"Almost?"
"Yes, it's really just a little bit closer."
Yuan Chunian stretched out his hand, the light of the mustard bracelet flashed, and a white jade slab appeared in front of everyone.
"The auction item, but it is not..."
Su Ling'er exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, it was photographed."
Yuan Chunian smiled, his smile bright.
Ying Baiye's eyes narrowed slightly: "Aren't you afraid of being discovered that Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce is looking for help at the auction?"
For a chamber of commerce's auction, this is a matter that greatly affects the credibility.
"What is a favor? I just wanted this thing so much that I asked someone to take it back. I paid a high price to get the item myself. Is this considered a favor?"
It seems to make sense.
Su Ling'er nodded after hearing Yuan Chunian's answer.
However, I saw that the expressions on the faces of the other people did not change much. They had obviously thought of this answer in advance.
In other words, Yuan Chunian had expected that he would have a white jade slab in his hand.
"Tell me the conditions."
Lin Yu didn't want to continue the trouble, so she stated the conditions directly, and the two parties would discuss it later. If it was completed early, it would be better to prepare early.
"I want to enter the spiritual treasure trove with you."
"Why?"
"Just what I have in my hand."
"Information about Ling Zang?"
"right."
"not enough."
Lin Yu shook her head.
"Not enough chips."
This bargaining chip is not enough for them to take the risk of cooperating with an outsider whose details are unclear.
"What if we add this."
The light flashed in Yuan Chunian's hand, and another jade sculpture appeared in front of their eyes.
"What's this?"
Lin Yu asked.
Yuan Chunian smiled mysteriously: "The map in the spiritual treasure trove."
boom! ! !
In the private room, Lin Yu's spiritual power exploded instantly, her eyes cold.
"Did you make a deal with the Bone Temple?"
Lin Yu's outburst shocked everyone present. This was the first time in such a long time that they had seen Lin Yu get so angry.
However, Yuan Chunian, who was sitting opposite her, did not have any fear. He raised his eyes and met Lin Yu's eyes.
"So what? Merchants don't look at who the target is when making transactions. If I don't make this deal, I won't be able to get the chips that make you excited."
That makes sense.
"elder sister."
Lin Qi's voice sounded at this time, causing Lin Yu, who was a little emotional, to calm down instantly.
She turned her head, glanced at Lin Qi who was staring at her, and shook her head slightly.
"I'm fine."
At this moment, Ying Baiye sat up from the chair, and a voice sounded.
"Looking at it now, it seems that our bargaining chip is light. I am very curious as to why you have to pay such a high price in exchange for traveling with us."
"Actually, it's not just about walking with you."
Yuan Chunian turned his gaze from Lin Yu to him.
"Otherwise, you can sell me the key to the spiritual treasure trove. I can accept it at any price."
"If you say that, may I know the reason?"
Ying Baiye's eyes flashed slightly and he asked.
Yuan Chunian had no intention of hiding anything. The purchase of the key was just an empty talk. She didn't think people like Ying Baiye would let go of the key.
She spoke directly without any hesitation.
"Now that things have happened, there is nothing to hide. The reason why I want to go with you is just because of the key in your hands. This key is not only the key to open the entrance to the spiritual treasure house, but also its importance. It has another purpose.”
"There is a treasure house hidden in the deepest part of this spiritual treasure house. The treasure house is sealed and can only be opened with this key. To be honest, the purpose of my trip is to find something in the treasure house."
As she spoke, she raised her head.
"The content of our transaction is very simple. I will provide you with information, and you will take me into the spiritual treasure house. I will not be contaminated by any other items. I just want to take away that item."
"Can you please tell me what it is?"
This time, Yuan Chunian did not answer, but slightly lowered his eyebrows.
"No comment."
Ying Baiye nodded and did not continue to ask.
At this time, Lin Yu's eyes were cast towards him, and the two people's eyes briefly communicated in the air.
Lin Yu nodded slightly and turned to look at Yuan Chunian in front of her again.
"We agree to your request."
Yuan Chunian was obviously relieved. It seemed that the scene just now was not very easy for her.
"In that case."
She stood up and stretched out her jade hand towards Lin Yu.
“A pleasure to work with.”
Lin Yu reached out and held it.
“A pleasure to work with.”
Ying Baiye sat on his seat and looked up at the two people shaking hands next to him.
His eyes moved and looked at Li Minghai, who was standing motionless at the door.
Li Minghai felt his gaze, and his gaze met his, but they were separated at the first touch.
Ying Baiye looked away, wondering what he was thinking.
The thought of Yuan Chu came and went quickly.
After discussing some details with Lin Yu, he left here directly, leaving behind the first white jade board that recorded the information about the spiritual treasure.
As for the key maps, they will be delivered later.
After all, who can trust each other the first time they meet?
"What do you think of this person?"
Lin Yu put the white jade slab back into the mustard bracelet and turned to ask Ying Baiye.
Ying Baiye shook his head when he heard her words.
"It's quite satisfactory. There's nothing wrong with it."
This regularity does not refer to the performance of Yuan Chu Nian, but to her behavior.
In this matter, the identity can withstand scrutiny and the reasons are defensible.
According to Ying Baiye's strength, he could compete with Lin Qi on the side, or even surpass him by a few points.
If she can go with her, for the time being, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
"Then we'll see later."
After listening to what he said, Lin Yu made a decision.
We can't take it lightly, but now it seems that we can feel a little relieved.
At this moment, Lin Qi's eyes narrowed and the corners of his mouth raised a wide arc.
"Xiaoqi."
"Sister, I know."
Lynch raised his hands.
"I restrain myself, I restrain myself, and I will never cause trouble."
The next second, other people in the box also noticed something unusual.
Ying Baiye stood up from the chair, turned around, opened the window screen and walked to the railing.
What he was looking at was a private room about the same size as theirs.
Behind the railing of the box, stood a man wearing a black iron mask, also looking towards their position.
His eyes were so deep that it was hard to tell what he was thinking.
The two people looked at each other, and Ying Baiye couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, with a big smile on his face.
He stretched out his finger and pointed gently in the direction of the masked man.
"Bang."
The masked man watched his movements without any change in his facial expression.
He turned around and walked back to the box behind him.
"It seems like I've been watching it for a long time."
Lin Qi walked next to him, looked at the place where the man in the black iron mask disappeared and licked his lips.
"Come and see as you like."
Ying Baiye said with a smile, his voice slightly cold.
"I'm just afraid that he won't come."
"It's rare that I think of you for the first time."
Lynch said.
Ying Baiye glanced at him, turned around and walked back into the box.
Lin Qi shrugged, not angry at all. Anyway, he had been with Ying Baiye for a while, so he was familiar with this person's character.
Habits are really terrible things.
Shaking his head, he returned to the box.
In a certain corner of the auction house, a pair of eyes looked closely at the two people who turned and left.
His gaze was so profound that it was beyond words.
