The Beautiful CEO’s Close Bodyguard
Chapter 57 - 57 0057 Grand Auction Event

57: Chapter 0057: Grand Auction Event 57: Chapter 0057: Grand Auction Event “Crack—”

The crisp sound of breaking bones echoed.

Shi Weiyu’s eyes bulged out, his face swollen red with congestion, and while weird gurgling noises emitted from his throat, he couldn’t scream out in pain.

With this attack, sixty percent of his bones were shattered by Chu Ge.

Previously, Chu Ge didn’t use his full strength because he couldn’t judge how much Shi could endure, fearing he might accidentally kill him.

Now, from that punch, he had roughly calculated Shi Weiyu’s limits.

So this time, he slightly controlled the intensity of his strike.

“Ow—” Two or three seconds later, like a puddle of mud, Shi Weiyu finally opened his mouth wide and let out an extremely miserable scream.

Even though it was not he who was injured, Huo Tianqian’s eyelids couldn’t help but twitch violently, and he looked at Chu Ge with even more respect.

He had made up his mind to become friends with him at all costs!

“I told you, if I really made a move, you wouldn’t be able to take a single hit,” Chu Ge smiled and squatted next to Shi Weiyu: “I’ll give you one last chance.

What does your Vajra Sect know about the Jade Pendant?

What else related to the Jade Pendant is there in your sect?”

Shi Weiyu clenched his teeth fiercely, even as strands of blood seeped from between his teeth, yet he didn’t say a word.

Looking at it this way, he was indeed tough.

Huo Tianqian pondered for a moment, then suddenly came over and said, “Mr.

Chu, it’s beneath you to dirty your hands with interrogations.

It would give him too much face.

How about this, leave him to me, and within three days, I will certainly give you a satisfactory answer.”

A sinister glow emerged in Huo Tianqian’s eyes.

Not to mention old grudges, just based on the recent grievance alone, he had decided to use the most vicious methods on Shi Weiyu.

Chu Ge looked at him and eventually nodded in agreement.

After all, with his current identity, it was indeed inconvenient to take Shi Weiyu back for interrogation, and starting from now, Huo Tianqian had already made it onto the kill list of the Vajra Sect, so there was no fear of him harboring other intentions.

As he nodded, Chu Ge patted Shi Weiyu’s body a few times: “His energy points and some of the main meridian bones have been shattered by me, he has already become an ordinary person.”

After handing over the business matters in the factory, Huo Tianqian immediately sent someone to pick up Chu Ge.

That same night, his bank account saw an increase of forty-five million.

Although Huo Tianqian was a venomous person, his ways of flattering were impeccable, at least Chu Ge had slightly changed his opinion of him.

In the following days, Huo Tianqian smartly did not seek out Chu Ge; instead, Chu Ge received an invitation.

It was from the Ouyang family, inviting him to participate in an auction.

Clearly, the Ouyang family wanted to make amends for the affair at the previous party.

Shortly after Chu Ge received the invitation, Ouyang Die’s call came through.

“Mr.

Chu?”

Ouyang Die’s voice carried some worry, which turned into reality when Chu Ge spoke, “Turns out it’s Miss Ouyang.

The Ouyang family personally calling this swindler, I’m truly flattered.”

In the Ouyang family, Ouyang Die was standing with several people behind her, among them Ouyang Kangshi, and Ouyang Die had already turned on the speakerphone, so Chu Ge’s words resonated throughout the room.

Ouyang Kangshi’s face showed a bit of shame, as today’s situation can be said to have been facilitated by him; he had originally intended to watch the fire from the other side of the bank, waiting for Chu Ge to be almost crushed before intervening to save the day.

As the Family Head of the Ouyang family, his ability to manipulate people’s hearts was unparalleled, yet no one expected Chu Ge to possess such heaven-defying abilities.

Watching her father sending constant signals, Ouyang Die nodded and lowered her stance: “Mr.

Chu, the last incident was truly a misunderstanding.

Please don’t take it to heart.

Rest assured, the Ouyang family will definitely provide you with satisfactory compensation!”

When Ouyang Die spoke these words, a fleeting shade of sorrow flashed across Ouyang Kangshi’s eyes—the Ouyang family dominated Shanghai, but since when did they have to tread carefully and speak humbly to others?

However, this thought merely flashed across his mind.

“Compensation?

Haha, I, a mere charlatan, what virtue or ability do I have to receive compensation from the Ouyang family?” Chu Ge sneered.

It was not that he harbored ill feelings towards Ouyang Die, but Ouyang Kangshi’s actions indeed left him dissatisfied.

Moreover, Chu Ge had already guessed that probably a few members of the Ouyang family were standing nearby, listening in.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence on the other end, Ouyang Kangshi took over the call: “Mr.

Chu, I heard that you have been collecting some precious medicinal herbs and jade recently.”

“Are you investigating me?” This time, Chu Ge’s eyebrows furrowed.

“No, no, no, you’ve misunderstood!” Ouyang Kangshi hurriedly explained: “It’s like this, one of the pharmacies is actually owned by our Ouyang family.

I heard about this from the person in charge there.”

Chu Ge’s expression eased somewhat: “Hmm, so what?”

“It’s like this.” Ouyang Kangshi softened his tone, continuing: “This auction is actually quite special.

It will feature items that ordinary people can’t access!”

“Hmm?” Chu Ge’s expression became intrigued, subtly asking: “Go on.”

Hearing Chu Ge’s interest, Ouyang Kangshi also slightly relaxed: “The auction will feature some extremely fine jade, as well as precious medicinal herbs that ordinary pharmacies can’t provide, and even…

some magic artifacts used by Immortals!”

When mentioning the magic artifacts, Ouyang Kangshi’s tone turned peculiar—if he hadn’t witnessed Chu Ge’s miraculous abilities with his own eyes, he would never believe in the existence of Immortals in this world.

Hearing about the magic artifacts, Chu Ge squinted his eyes.

His master once told him that there indeed were Immortals in this world.

And this Innate One Qi Technique wasn’t just ordinary ancient martial arts but was a Cultivation Technique left by an Immortal.

Chu Ge had always been somewhat skeptical of this, but the Jade Pendant given to him by Huo Tianqian completely changed his perspective.

As for the magic artifacts mentioned by Ouyang Kangshi, they likely weren’t left by Immortals but were probably relics of ancient Qi Refiners.

Even so, this already completely piqued Chu Ge’s interest.

He hesitated for a moment before finally asking: “When is the auction held?

And the location.”

After achieving the Perfect Jing Qi Gui Yuan Realm, no matter how much he absorbed Spiritual Energy, he couldn’t break through to the Innate Grandmaster Realm, Unity of Heaven and Man as if there was a barrier.

Perhaps, this auction could provide him an opportunity for breakthrough!

In the face of breaking through realms, the misunderstandings with the Ouyang family were nothing but a trivial sideshow.

Hearing Chu Ge speak like this, Ouyang Kangshi’s face brightened: “It will be held in a villa owned by our family, starting the day after tomorrow on time.

I will arrange a car to pick you up!”
