Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!
Chapter 177: Is She the Charming Fox?

Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Is She the Charming Fox?

It was unclear whether these two really wanted to bid on the Golden Pearl or were just being combative, since everyone knew they had never got along on the surface.

Ji Ling watched the man in front of her, exuding an aura of hormones, every move he made caused her heart to race uncontrollably, completely mesmerizing her.

After all, how else to explain that Xiao Chen, despite being so dangerous, still had so many women trying every means to get close to him?

Countless women wanted to approach him, yet not a single one succeeded.

She was the only one who could connect with Xiao Chen, and that was thanks to the marriage arrangement set up by the Ji Family long ago.

As such, she was very tactful, and now the Ji Family treated her with courtesy, even trying to matchmake her and Xiao Chen.

It was just that Grandfather had not yet agreed, leaving things ambiguous.

But Grandfather was about to return, and as the Ji Family’s only daughter, she believed Grandfather would propose this marriage to the Xiao Family for the sake of the Ji Family.

After all, it was the Xiao Family who had initiated the marriage proposal with the Ji Family years ago, and they cared too much about face to back out of a marriage.

As long as she achieved a little more, she was confident that both the Ji Family and the Xiao Family would see her in a new light.

Gu Cong was calm and composed, his voice cultured, "It seems Young Master Xiao is determined to compete with me to the end, then let me accompany him, I bid seven billion."

Xiao Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth, a pair of deep eyes full of rebelliousness, "Then you’d better be prepared to bankrupt yourself, you can’t outbid me in terms of money, eight billion."

The people behind silently watched.

Xiao Chen truly had the arrogance to back him, a company that was left unattended could still profit billions in a single year, and that was just what was publicly known, let alone the countless companies and forces behind the scenes.

"Heh, I can’t outbid you, but making you bleed a little is doable," Gu Cong still wore a smile.

It seemed Xiao Chen was here for the Golden Pearl.

Was it for the girl he met that day?

His gaze strayed to the bare thumb of his left hand, his mouth corners curving with amusement.

"Young Master Xiao, where’s your Jade Ring?" he said with a meaningful look, intentionally raising his voice a notch.

The Jade Ring was not only a symbol of the Xiao Family’s power but also a symbol of the four great families of Beijing.

Ordinarily, he never took it off, wearing it everywhere, so its sudden disappearance was quite peculiar.

"A mere object, you think without this Jade Ring the Xiao Family wouldn’t acknowledge me? You few families think you can turn the sky upside down?" He raised his eyebrows, his expression playful, his sword-like eyebrows arrogant, exuding a noble temperament befitting someone of his high status.

A few locks of hair fell over his forehead obstructing his vision, making his eyes appear even more unfathomable.

Any ordinary person would not dare to speak to Gu Cong in such a manner, but he was Xiao Chen.

A Crown Prince of Beijing who showed no face to anyone.

His reputation and intimidation were not dependent on the Xiao Family, but on his own abilities.

At that moment, upon hearing Gu Cong’s words, they all couldn’t help but crane their necks to look.

Then, retracting their necks after hearing his response.

Just as he said, it’s nothing but a trifle.

The current status of the Xiao Family was due to Xiao Chen, they dreaded not the Xiao Family, but him.

Feng Ye and Xie Fangkai exchanged glances, seeing helplessness in each other’s eyes.

Both men just loved to be at odds with each other; that they hadn’t come to blows was already fortunate.

In the end, Xiao Chen won the Golden Pearl for a price of twenty billion.

The crowd was in awe of his spending twenty billion just to obtain the Golden Pearl.

Although the Golden Pearl was rare and precious, twenty billion was truly extravagant; a typical golden pearl could be won for one billion.

They could only envy his wealth, powerless to compete.

This Golden Pearl was at most a piece of women’s jewelry, could it be for Ji Ling?

But just now, the words and actions of those two at the scene seemed to indicate that their relationship hadn’t reached that level yet.

Zhai Quan could hardly contain his laughter, feeling like he hit the jackpot. The money spent on the Other Shore Flower was completely earned back.

Who would have thought Master Chen was so extravagant!

To compete with Gu Cong, he casually dropped 2 billion!

Xiao Bai and Cang Leng were dumbstruck. 2 billion just for a golden pearl the size of a pigeon’s egg?

True to Xiao Chen’s style.

Qiu Jun looked at Xiao Chen with a malicious grin, his eyes full of provocation and pregnant with meaning, though his smile didn’t reach his eyes.

When their gazes clashed, Xiao Chen’s eyes suddenly turned piercingly cold.

He hadn’t expected him to come to country Z.

After the auction ended, Qiu Jun stood up, followed by several bodyguards.

"Good luck to you all."

"Danger, get down!"

The moment his words fell, waiters around immediately drew guns and pointed them in Xiao Chen’s direction.

Xiao Bai and Cang Leng realized something was wrong first; they quickly pushed down Zhai Quan’s head, while Xiao Chen and Feng Ye rapidly ducked, their expressions darkening.

"Shit! What’s happening!" Zhai Quan, looking at the electronic screen behind him riddled with bullet holes, was frightened. He was glad that the two people behind him reacted quickly, or else he would have been done for.

Mo Fan had always been suspicious of those waiters and was on guard against them. Seeing them draw guns, he instantly pulled out two pistols from behind his back, his sensual lips lifting into a smile, and he began to spray bullets at them.

The scene instantly plunged into chaos. People frantically scrambled to flee, with many being accidentally injured or killed.

The wise ones crouched with their heads down, using chairs to shield their bodies.

Yun Yue had just rescued Nan Jingchen from a box when she heard gunshots. Her eyes darkened slightly, she took a gun and ran.

"Hey, my legs are weak!" Nan Jingchen stood still, calling out feebly. What the hell was in those sedatives? They were so potent that he could barely walk.

"Then leave this room and find a safe place to stay put!" Yun Yue cursed, as she didn’t have time to look after him now.

"What are you doing running over there, a high school student? Hide with me! You don’t know how to shoot and you can’t beat them. Don’t you die over there..."

This time she didn’t wait to hear a response. Nan Jingchen worried she might get killed the moment she arrived.

He left his spot and found a secure room to hide in, comforting himself.

If she could escape from the Underground Alliance, she should be able to handle a little scene like this.

Yun Yue ran over and immediately took down two people.

"Boss."

Seeing her join the battle, Mo Fan smirked.

"Have you seen Wuxin?" Her eyes, cold as ice, scanned the chaotic scene. These were just minor characters; there were a few real tough guys around, but the three of them, plus Zhai Quan’s men, could handle it easily.

She didn’t expect Wuxin to be hiding so deeply, as she had yet to see her show her face.

"No, I don’t know what happened. Those waiters suddenly started shooting at Zhai Quan’s side as if they received orders."

If it weren’t for Xiao Bai and Cang Leng’s quick reactions, he would be riddled with bullet holes by now.

"Master Chen, is that woman, is she Charming Fox?" Feng Ye saw Yun Yue, remembering that this woman had already piqued his interest during the bidding for the Jade Pendant, realizing she might be from Golden Net.

Such a sexy woman was probably Charming Fox.

But where was the Other Shore Flower?

Why hadn’t he seen her yet?

He wanted to meet the Other Shore Flower; if he missed this chance, he didn’t know if he’d ever get another opportunity.
