NOVEL WEB After he finished speaking, a young girl came in with a tray in her hands. In the tray was a violet golden card, which looked quite luxurious.
Liu Pinyan walked to her, took the card and gave it to the young man.
Murong Qingyan took the card and put it into her pocket.
“Mr. Mu, the elixirs–” Liu Pinyan said again.
He hoped the man in front could keep the elixirs in the auction house. It surely would make a big stir once the news of ten Foundation Elixir of Third Grade would be traded at the premium auction was spread. If some accident happened and made the auction unable to continue smoothly, it would be a huge blow to Jialuo Auction.
But the ten elixirs were of great value so, he was not sure whether the man was willing to keep them here.
“You keep them at the house for me please!” Murong Qingyan saw through the embarrassment and reserved expression on Liu Pinyan’s face, “I will come on the auction day.”
Liu Pinyan was relieved on hearing her words, “We will follow your words and carefully keep them. Two days later the premium auction will take place, then we will prepare a booth for you.”
Murong Qingyan nodded, stood up and left the auction house.
Seeing Murong Qingyan’s receding figure of departure, Liu Pinyan felt relieved completely. Young as Mr. Mu was, he had a remarkable temperament. No way an ordinary person would sell ten Foundation Elixir of Third Grade at one time! But—
Seeing the elixirs in hands, Liu Pinyan looked excited. It could be imagined the great benefit this auction would bring. Perfectly there were two days left so, the auction would be more perfect if they spread it widely.
On the other side, Murong Qingyan went back to Murong family after leaving Jialuo Auction House. This trip didn’t draw anyone’s attention.
In the Ruxue House of Murong family—
Murong Qingxue was still staying in her room to heal her wound, but after a long time of recovering, she didn’t show any sign of turning better but she looked bleaker than before.
At the moment she was lying in bed. The breath she gave out was gloomy enough to make others keep away from her even though she said nothing.
The servant girl waiting on her by her bedside now was crying silently in the heart. She didn’t know why Miss Qingxue’s temper had completely changed after the family competition.
She used to be gentle and kind-hearted and barely had harsh words to them. All the servants envied them who served in Ruxue House. But now Miss Qingxue totally lost her tenderness and looked quite gloomy all the time.
What was more, recently Miss Qingxue often beat and scolded them. She scolded them as long as things were slightly south. Now serving in Ruxue House, they must stay alert every day for fear that something went wrong, which would incur them a good scolding and beating.
Murong Qingxue looked gloomy and wore no smile even though her engagement to Nangong Ye became valid again. Because till now, she hadn’t regained her cultivation.
Previously she had comforted herself in heart that what Murong Qingyan said was only to scare her and she would regain her cultivation after a period of time.
However, she couldn’t cheat herself anymore. The fact was she couldn’t regain her cultivation and she would be a good-for-nothing.
Her wound had been healed now but she didn’t dare to meet people, because she was worried what she was going through would be discovered if she walked out of her door, then she would lose everything.
Thinking of this, a feeling of hatred flooded her mind. She hated Murong Qingyan, all she suffered today was caused by Murong Qingyan. Meanwhile, she couldn’t help complaining her mother Liu Mei. Because what Murong Qingyan did to her was the result of her mom’s action of poisoning. Also for this reason, she hadn’t called Liu Mei mother for a long time.
