Chapter 456: Chapter 456: How Dare You Talk About Him Like That!!

"Sir Long... I am thinking I will hold the auction next week. What do you think?" Si Yingjie asked.

"Sure. It’s up to you." Bai Xifeng stated.

She did not mind. She would be staying in the city for 2 weeks. Liu Longwei promised that he would come back in 2 weeks. She would wait until then. If he still did not show up within the promised time, she would leave without her.

"About the starting price..." Si Yingjie wanted to ask about Bai Xifeng’s opinion.

"That is also up to you. I am sure that you can think of a suitable starting price for my pills and elixirs." Bai Xifeng also pushed the issue to Si Yingjie to deal with that.

"I understand. Then, here is the token of the auction." Si Yingjie gave several tokens to Bai Xifeng. "You can come if you want. You might find something good."

Since Si Yingjie gave the tokens to her, it would be rude not to take them. So, she took it. If she did not want to go, she could give them to Ning Shoukai or Xie Lanying. She already spent a long time here. She should leave and look for food.

Ning Shoukai and Xie Lanying were strolling in the Shanghai Pavillion looking at the item. The atmosphere was not too bad. They were talking to each other. Until someone barged into their conversation.

"Oh... We have a poor loser who had been kicked out of my family."

Ning Shoukai frowned as he turned around to see Ning Huizhong and several of his friends. Ning Huizhong seemed to have a mocking expression on his face. It seemed his father still did not tell Ning Huizhong about Ning Zhaofeng being the owner of the Baiyun Restaurant.

"Ning Huizhong..." Ning Shoukai called his name.

"You should call me Third Young Master Ning." Ning Huizhong looked smug.

"Third Young Master Ning, what do you want from me?" Ning Shoukai followed what Ning Huizhong wanted to call him.

However, Ning Huizhong thought that Ning Shoukai was mocking him by calling him that name. Ning Shoukai did not know what Ning Huizhong thought. If he knew, he would be confused. He called Ning Huizhong with what Ning Huizhong wanted.

"Poor bastard, what are you doing here? Buying something... Nah... You don’t have the money. Wait, have you eaten for today? Oh... Are you thinking of getting a job here?" Ning Huizhong mocked Ning Shoukai by calling him ’poor bastard’.

Xie Lanying who just did not want to get involved could not stand anymore hearing those insults being thrown by Ning Huizhong to Ning Shoukai. She turned to Ning Huizhong as well.

Ning Huizhong was shocked to see Xie Lanying there. Of course, he knew her. They were the same age. He also met her when they were younger. However, Xie Lanying never liked to talk and play with him.

Xie Lanying liked to play with Ning Shoukai. Xie Lanying was his first crush. Seeing Xie Lanying happily play with Ning Shoukai, he felt angry. He began to spread the words saying that Ning Shoukai told everyone that Xie Lanying was ugly.

Probably because Xie Lanying caught wind of that, she distanced herself after that and no longer played together with Ning Shoukai. Xie Lanying did not appear much after that. Seeing Xie Lanying standing beside Ning Shoukai now, evoked the jealousy which had long disappeared.

"He can be wherever he wants to be. It is not your business." Xie Lanying said.

"Miss Xie..." Ning Huizhong wanted to say something.

"Xifeng sure takes a long time." Xie Lanying ignored Ning Huizhong and talked to Ning Shoukai.

"Yes." Ning Shoukai also followed Xie Lanying’s act ignoring Ning Huizhong.

Ning Huizhong gritted his teeth. "Miss Xie, you probably did not know that Ning Shoukai had been kicked out of our Ning Family. There is no benefit to being friends with someone like him." He told the fact thinking that Xie Lanying did not know about that.

Xie Lanying turned and looked at Ning Huizhong. "So, what?" She asked.

Ning Huizhong was taken aback by Xie Lanying’s response. He thought that Xie Lanying would start to hate Ning Shoukai because he had no family background.

"Miss Xie, he is not a suitable friend for you." Ning Huizhong tried to convince Xie Lanying again.

"So, who should I be friends with?" Xie Lanying asked. Then, she raised her eyebrow. "Don’t tell me it is you?"

"Of course, Miss Xie. Your family is on the same level as my family. We should be friends." Ning Huizhong smiled.

Xie Lanying showed disdain on her face. Ning Huizhong did not care.

"Oh... About Xifeng what you mentioned just now, he is probably the sissy boy that had been around Ning Shoukai recently. That sissy boy is not a good person. Judging by her appearance, he probably lived by leeching on the men. He is basically a gigolo." Ning Huizhong started to change his target from Ning Shoukai and Bai Xifeng.

Bai Xifeng was Xie Lanying’s mother’s saviour. She would not stand back when she heard Ning Huizhong insulted Bai Xifeng like that.

"How dare you talk about him like that?" Xie Lanying shouted to Ning Huizhong.

Ning Huizhong was startled when he saw the sudden anger from Xie Lanying. Xie Lanying was not like this when he talked about Ning Shoukai earlier. Then, why did she look so pissed when he talked about Bai Xifeng?
