"Then what time did the Mitte Auction House arrange for him?”
A cold light flashed in Zhong Lu's eyes.
Xiao Mei paused for a moment and said with certainty,"It should be the auction in three days. After all, according to the time, the auction in three days can help the Xiao family get out of the quagmire!"”
Xiao Mei addressed the Xiao family as her own family, and it was obvious that she was on the Zhong Lu side.
That's right. Under the bribe of the carrot and hot milk, Xiao Mei could no longer leave him.
"Good! Three days isn't a long time!"
Zhong Lu chuckled and turned around to continue his lecture. As an ideology and politics teacher, he was already very familiar with this.
......
The next day, Zhong Lu woke up early to cultivate his battle energy. Xiao Mei went out and carefully bought five hooded black robes to help Zhong Lu hide his identity.
This black robe was connected to the hood and had golden cuffs. It could only be considered a relatively common piece of clothing on the market.
However, it was enough to hide his identity. Zhong Lu, who possessed the Strange Fire, could use a small technique to change the Strange Fire's aura. This was taught to him by Gu Ling 'er.
Therefore, he wasn't worried that the people in the family who were familiar with him would detect his aura!
He and Xiao Mei walked out of the room. In order to avoid suspicion, Xiao Mei could only let go of his arm and lead the way.
"Although the invitation to the Mitte Auction House is rare, if my Xiao family wants it, I believe the people from the auction house will not refuse.”
Xiao Mei smiled softly. She felt very satisfied to be able to help Zhong Lu, especially since Zhong Lu could reward her with an unparalleled sense of satisfaction.
"Can we get a private room?"
Zhong Lu turned his head and said. Xiao Mei was stunned and hesitated,"However, the private rooms must be arranged by the auction house. If the elders and clan leader go, the auction house will definitely arrange a private room. However, we…"
Needless to say, this was a world where strength reigned supreme. Without strength, one might not even be able to keep their seat.
Zhong Lu pondered for a while and shook his head.""Don't worry. When I meet Faye from the auction house, my identity will be fine!”
"Yes!"
Xiao Mei thought that Zhong Lu knew Yafei, so she didn't say anything. Just as the two of them left the Xiao family, a group of people suddenly arrived at the main gate. The leader was dressed like a young master and had an arrogant expression.
When he realized that it was Xiao Mei, he immediately revealed a surprised look. He smiled and walked over."Sister Xiao Mei, why are you in the mood to come out today?”
"I'm going shopping. I wonder if Sister Xiao Mei is interested?”
He used to have a good relationship with Xiao Mei, so Xiao Ning had always had some secret thoughts about Xiao Mei. Now that he had come over, it was to build a good relationship between the two.
However, Xiao Mei shook her head without hesitation and rejected Xiao Ning.
"Brother Xiao Ning, I'm sorry."
"I have something to do now. I don't want to go shopping!”
Hearing this, Desolate Ning frowned and turned his attention to Zhong Lu. He didn't recognize Zhong Lu because of the black robe, so he could only turn around and ask,"Who is this person? Sister Xiao Mei shouldn't walk around with strangers.”
"It has nothing to do with you!"
Hearing Xiao Ning's attitude towards Zhong Lu, Xiao Mei snorted coldly. She thought of Zhong Lu's instructions and shook her head,"This lord is an alchemist!”
" Alchemist!?"
Instantly, Desolate Ning's eyes changed. The initial rejection turned into greed and flattery!
He knew how Salted Fish Xiao Han transformed. It was because he knew an alchemist!
"Sir, you are?"
Desolate Ning lowered his eyebrows. The few lackeys behind him didn't dare to come up, fearing that they would ruin Desolate Ning's plan. Zhong Lu pinched his throat and snorted coldly." You can just call me Zhong Lu!”
"Haha, so it's Grandmaster Zhong Lu!”
Xiao Ning nodded and walked behind Xiao Mei, smiling,"I happen to be very familiar with Wu City. Master, where are you going with Xiao Mei?”
"Go to the Mitte Auction House!"
Zhong Lu didn't refuse, so Xiao Ning left with Zhong Lu like a lackey. Xiao Mei followed closely behind, looking at Zhong Lu worriedly. Zhong Lu blinked his eyes, which made her feel relieved.
Not long after, at the Mitte Auction House, they met a middle-aged man dressed like a manager. After explaining their purpose of coming, they easily obtained the token of the auction. However, regarding the private room, the manager could only helplessly say that he had to let Miss Faye make the decision.
"Milords, please wait a moment!"
The steward asked the servant to serve tea, then turned around and left with a faint smile.
Zhong Lu and the other two sat on the chairs. Xiao Ning kept talking about topics to get closer to them, but Zhong Lu didn't show any attitude.
Helplessly, Desolate Ning could only shut his mouth.
"This Mitte Auction House is truly grand to the extreme.”
Xiao Mei's small face carried a trace of amazement. It was just a reception room, but there were many rare plants placed around it. The decoration was elegant. It must have been made by someone.
"The Mitte Auction House has been in business for many years. It's normal for them to have some treasures!”
Zhong Lu nodded in agreement.
