Chapter 35 Meet Again
The elevators in the International Trade Building are notoriously fast, and because of the efficient pace required to work here, even the elevators are forced to speed up their work efficiency.
Dingββ
After a soft sound, Yan Qi and Bai Ran came to the eightieth floor.
Outside the elevator was a corridor, and the floor of the corridor was shining with an unknown light, and Yan Qi could see that these shining stars seemed to be specially treated diamonds embedded in the floor, and the lights above his head were also specially designed, which could just reflect these diamonds just right, not dazzling, but also make people feel that they were shining under their feet.
At the end of the corridor, it is even more exaggerated, there are two doors more than three meters high, the whole gate design is very simple, just look at the carved patterns on the door, it is enough to make people dazzling.
These carvings seem to have been carefully designed and carved by craftsmen, as if they had recorded some stories and legends.
As for what... Aren't you all here by plane?
Complaining like this, Yan Qi and Bai Ran walked out of the elevator.
As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, two men in white suits suddenly appeared on the side of the door.
"Huh?" The two looked at Yan Qi and Bai Ran with some confusion, and were stunned for a while before they said in a daze: "Eh, Mr. Yan and Ms. Bai, please go this way..."
Yan Qi was also a little inexplicable, how the people here always wanted to speak and stopped, but Bai Ran didn't care, her attention was attracted by the shining stars on the ground.
If it weren't for Yan Qi's urging, she might have pried the floor open with one claw, and then took a closer look at what was glowing.
Maybe girls are naturally more interested in shiny things.
Coming to the giant gate, two men in suits stood on both sides, and knocked lightly twice towards the position where the dragon head was carved, and then the giant door slowly opened back.
"Welcome, both of you, and have a great time at this event. β
Yan Qi only felt a refreshing melodious sound of the piano slowly coming out of it along with the opening of the door.
Then, there was a rush of conversation.
When the two of them walked into the venue, the giant door behind them slowly closed.
At this point, Yan Qi and Bai Ran finally came to the auction site of Salamandel.
The exquisitely designed venue made Yan Qi's eyes almost dazzled, and there was a look of surprise on his face.
"I think this is some kind of place where the gods live. He scoffed.
But when he saw Bai Ran's expression beside him, he was puzzled, Bai Ran obviously had no interest in this huge and extremely luxurious two-story banquet hall, and even more interested than she was in the diamonds in the corridor.
"Immortals?" Bai Ran looked at everything in the venue with an expressionless face. "The so-called immortals of human beings are omnipotent, strong people who live on the clouds?"
"Also... You see, isn't the height we are at now about the same as being above the clouds? β
Yan Qi scratched his head a little embarrassed.
At this moment, an attendant with a tray in his hand came to them, and the man smiled very politely at the two of them.
"You two, do you need a drink?"
"Good. As soon as he saw the plate in the waiter's hand, Bai Ran's eyes instantly changed from plain to excited. She held out a hand, took a goblet with a pale yellow liquid, and drank it down.
"You... Do you see what this is, you just drink?" Yan Qi also picked up a drink a little helplessly, and then drank the cup in his hand while looking at Bai Ran.
"Sir, this lady is drinking our special tropical fruit juice blend, and this cup you are holding is... Eh, sir, sir, you..."
The attendant watched Yan Qi blankly and drank the liquid in the cup in one gulp, so frightened that he was a little speechless.
the groove.
After that, this thought came to Yan Qi's mind, and then there was a burning pain in his throat, this feeling flowed down his throat all the way to his chest, and then continued down, to his stomach, and finally settled there, but it also made him feel like he had drunk a ball of magma.
"Uh... You five grains, very, very authentic..."Yan Qi put the wine glass back on the plate, holding back the burning sensation in his throat and lungs, tears as if they were about to rush into his eyes.
"Sir.. This is the shochu that we have in the cellar of our chamber of commerce, and generally if you need it, we will give you various proportions of water, and you can drink it directly..."
The waiter was a little helpless, indeed, that cup is usually not touched by anyone, he didn't expect to meet a stunned young man as soon as he came... It really caught him off guard.
"Ahh I, my day... Toilet... Where is it. β
Yan Qi couldn't care about his appearance, and shouted to the waiter with a pale face.
However, this attendant was also very professional, and when he saw this, he immediately led Yan Qi and ran towards the bathroom, while Yan Qi ran more in the venue.
Naturally, he attracted a lot of attention along the way, and everyone looked sideways at him, among them, Xue Yang was also here, of course, he also found Yan Qi, but after he saw Yan Qi's embarrassing behavior, he really didn't want to come forward to talk to him...
Let's wait a while... When everyone forgets about this idiot, I'll go to him again...
Thinking like this, he turned his head and suddenly saw Bai Ran who was still standing at the entrance gate.
There was a sudden unprovoked disgust in my heart.
In his opinion, this is a monster.
It was no different from the other monsters that invaded the human world and killed humans, but her father told him not to touch a single hair of her.
Xue Yang smiled a little helplessly.
Move her yourself... The last sneak attack was unsuccessful, if it weren't for Yixue's presence, would his own ability really be enough for them to toss...
"Young Master. A girl's silver bell-like voice came from beside him, Xue Yang looked back in response, Zhong Yixue was wearing a decent black dress, and was looking at herself with a melancholy face.
Her already very tall figure is lined with this dress more perfectly, coupled with the girl's impeccable face and innate cold temperament, she is really a rare person in the world.
"Aren't you going to say hello to the two of them?" Zhong Yixue asked.
"Hmm... Wait. Xue Yang just wanted to stall for time, and he felt that going to talk to the two of them now would inevitably attract more attention.
There were about 200 people in the venue.
Looking at it all, they are all big people, some they know, some they don't know, and some they know, but others don't know themselves.
In short, almost all the people in the venue, he has seen them more or less on some TV or newspapers, and some of them are representatives of other major families in the city, and of course he has had a few encounters.
Xue Yang has inherited his father's ability to talk well, and he can show the wisdom and city government that he has never had at his age.
In just half an hour, he has already talked with the group of people in the venue who he feels necessary and helpful to the family, whether it is facing celebrities or family elders, he can always behave elegantly and talk generously.
Always make others feel comfortable talking to him.
But that's about it.
Perhaps the ease and arrogance he showed when he fought Yan Qi and others for the first time on the top floor of the abandoned building that day was his original character.
To put it simply, he did inherit Xue Hongde's advantages, but his character, which had no interest in the business world, was also inherited without reservation.
So he and Zhong Yixue chose a relatively small and quiet location at this time, and quietly waited for the auction to start.
Bai Ran, who was left in place by Yan Qi, looked around the venue expressionlessly at this time, looking at all kinds of men and women talking to each other with wine glasses, she felt bored, but Yan Qi didn't come back, and she didn't feel good about walking around the venue by herself.
So she squatted down directly on the spot, hoping that Yan Qi would come back soon.
Just then, she heard a familiar voice from her side.
"Eh, isn't this Miss Bai?"
Bai Ran looked sideways, and saw two men in white suits walking towards him, the one led by him was extremely familiar, and when he approached him, Bai Ran saw it.
"Kong Xiuwen. She uttered the name somewhat flatly.
And the man in front of her was Kong Xiuwen, who was still eating hot pot with her last night.
"Why is Miss Bai here?" Kong Xiuwen looked at Bai Ran, who was squatting on the ground, with some confusion, and the latter pointed in the direction of the bathroom with some helplessness.
"Wait for him. β
He?
Kong Xiuwen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly came back to his senses.
Oh.
"Is your brother?" Whether it was Kong Xiuwen or Le Xiaxuan, they all thought that Yan Qi and Bai Ran were brother and sister, and at this time, the younger sister was here, and the elder brother must be not far away.
"Hmm. Bai Ran stood up from the ground, nodded, and looked behind Kong Xiuwen.
The man in the suit standing behind Kong Xiuwen was about 1.9 meters tall, with a pair of dark and deep eyes, burly, looking calm and heroic, at this time he saw that the girl was looking at him, and he nodded very politely.
But there was no smile on his face.
"Ahh This is my father's assistant, Wu Yuanchang. Kong Xiuwen said, patting the tall man's arm.
"Brother Wu, this is my new friend, Bai Ran, Miss Bai, and her brother... Well, I guess I'll be back soon. β
After hearing this, Wu Yuanchang's expression on his face finally eased a little, he looked at Bai Ran, nodded again, and said.
"I heard what Young Master Kong said, you helped the young master out of the siege in the hot pot restaurant last night, I, Wu Yuanchang, thank you from the bottom of my heart, I am really happy that the young master can have a friend like you. β
Unlike his serious appearance, this person unexpectedly talked a lot...
"My young master has been very sensible since he was a child, and his personality is also extremely gentle, and he will never rely on himself to be a famous family and bully others, but the young master's circle of friends is very narrow, and he has almost no friends, and now I am really happy to see him have new friends like you. β
Seeing the man say so many words in a row, and with that cold face, Bai Ran began to feel that this human being really can't judge people by their appearance.
