Chapter 48: The Auction on the Hermes
As soon as the three of them sat down in the restaurant, Candida Bix couldn't wait to start offering hospitality to Lin Cha: "Lin Xuemei, come and try this eggplant with chocolate sauce~"
A gray eggplant coated in chocolate sauce immediately appeared on Lin Cha's plate.
In the expectant eyes of the young man Bix, Lin Cha slowly picked it up, took one bite after another very delicately, and it took a long time to swallow this extremely terrible taste of "chocolate sauce eggplant".
"How's it going, it tastes good, right?"
Lin Cha pursed his lips reservedly: "...... Not bad. β
"Then let's try this avocado night again~"
As soon as the words fell, a black lump of round and round things that looked like pine eggs wrapped in grass and wood ash fell on Lin Cha's plate.
Looking at the terrible-looking "Avocado Night" on the dinner plate, the back of Lin Cha's white hand instantly burst into green tendons, but the next moment she hooked the corners of her lips, used her knife and fork together, and quickly stuffed it into her stomach.
"Sister Lin, this roasted nut also tastes very good~"
"Lin Xuemei, do you want to have some haggis?"
"Lin Xuemei ......"
Looking at Candida Bix's perseverance and courtesy, and the increasingly blue faces of her friends, Long Jin, who realized it later, touched her cold neck - did she do something wrong again?
Just when Long Jin was nervous, there was a sudden burst of noisy laughter at the entrance, and Zha Xinhai and the others entered the restaurant in a big way.
"Huh? That's not Long Xuemei and Lin Xuemei! The sharp-eyed Ibby Ex immediately saw the three of them.
Everyone subconsciously turned around, and sure enough, they saw Lin Cha and Long Jin and ...... Candida Bix?!
Zha Xinhai's eyes immediately narrowed, he knew everything about what this cunning junior brother had in mind, didn't he just want to get Lin Xuemei into his hands and then have something to do with the Long family?
But...... Now that he saw it, in order not to cheapen Candida Bix, he had to mess up this matter!
Zha Xinhai, who had made up his mind, walked quickly in front of the three of them, and greeted the two of them in surprise: "Senior Sister Longjin? Lin Xuemei? What a coincidence! β
"Hello Senior Cha!" x2
Seeing that Lin and Long responded to him with a smile, Zha Xinhai aimed his gaze at Candida Bix on the side: "Huh! Isn't this a Bix junior? β
Looking at Zha Xinhai's appearance of seeing him just now, Candida Bix's face sank, and a hint of foreboding suddenly appeared in his heart.
Sure enough, Zha Xinhai first beckoned to Ibi Ex and the others who were still standing at the door, and then said to them with a smile: "Since we all met in the restaurant, why don't we have a meal together!" β
Lin Cha and Long Jin had no doubts, and Candida Bix, who was weak, naturally had no way to raise objections, so she could only watch depressedly as Zha Xinhai and the other five people sat beside him after taking the dishes, separating him from Lin Cha from a distance.
Do you think you can stop him from pursuing passionately with these little tricks? Cut, Senior Cha really underestimated him!
Candida Bix glanced at Zha Xinhai who was there with disdain, and stood up with high morale: "Sister Lin, try this strawberry with mustard sauce~"
Zha Xinhai quickly grabbed the strawberry on the fork of the Bix teenager, swallowed it in one gulp, and then his face changed suddenly!
"Ahem, cough, cough-" Zha Xinhai opened his mouth wide and directly poured a few large glasses of water, "What kind of thing am I relying on!" Why are you so choked! β
Finally catching his breath, Zha Xinhai immediately pointed the finger at Candida Bix: "Senior Brother Bix, it's not that I want to find fault, how can you give such a thing to Lin Xuemei to eat?" You must know that girls' throats are very fragile! β
"Iβ" Candida Bix grieved.
successfully hit Candida Bix, Zha Xinhai did not choose to chase after the victory, but quickly changed the topic: "Speaking of which, I really can't eat anything in the past few days, I feel that none of the dishes are as delicious as the ones you make Lin Xuemei!" What kind of chestnut roast pork, fried pork strips...... It's drooling just thinking about it! β
"Yes, yes!" When it came to Lin Cha's cooking skills, even silent factions like Lang Yi and Feng Shi echoed it with affection.
Under Zha Xinhai's deliberate gag, the atmosphere between the seven suddenly became lively, but the Bix boy couldn't get into their topic no matter how much he tried, so he could only look at Lin Cha, who didn't look at him, with a secret hatred in his heart.
ββNext time, he must go on a date with Lin Xuemei alone! See who dares to disturb them!
Fortunately, the lunch that made the Bix boy extremely depressed did not last long, and the group that was still worried about the trial auction quickly shifted their positions and went straight to the second conference room, where the auction was held.
"Lin Xuemei, I-"
When Candida Bix tried to talk to Lin Cha again, Lin Maiden had already found a place and sat down quickly.
"Senior Bix, what do you say? I didn't hear that clearly. Lin Cha blinked apologetically.
I've got someone to take our place!!
Long Jin on the left and Feng Shi on the right, Ibi Ex in front, Lang Yi in the back, Zha Xinhai, Adam Harbishaw in the back, looking at the seven people who sat in the middle of Lin Cha in seconds, Candida Bix choked in his throat and almost choked himself directly.
Zha Xinhai raised his eyebrows, and proudly watched Candida Bix, who had repeatedly made himself deflated, leave in a daze, and his heart was very happy.
ββWant to pursue Lin Xuemei? Let's go in the next life!
14:30 minutes.
Yu Shang, who was a temporary guest auctioneer, appeared on the platform on time, and with a crisp snap of her fingers, a small light screen jumped out in front of the hundred trial students, and all the auction items and their reserve prices were densely listed on the screen.
Without waiting for them to finish browsing, Yu Sheng directly tapped the base with the auction hammer: "Let's start." Lot 1 - Piercing Sky Dew Grass, a total of 2,418 plants, each with a reserve price of 5,700 credits! β
There was silence in the room.
β5γ4γ3γ2γ1οΌβ Yu Shang simply knocked down the hammer neatly, "The No. 1 auction item is unsold." Lot 2 - Budding Spider Vine, a total of 409 plants, each with a reserve price of 70,800 credits! β
Before Yu Sheng finished speaking, the reserve price of the budding spider vine on the screen quickly turned into a bright red 71,000 credits.
β5γ4γ3γ2γ1οΌ Lot No. 2 sold! Lot 3 - Tiangang Chromium, a total of 2.1 kilograms, with a reserve price of 300,000 credits per kilogram! β
The floor price on the light screen turned red again in an instant, and it is even rising.
β5γ4γ3γ2γ1οΌ Lot No. 3 sold! Lot 4 ......"
Under Yu Shang's control, the auction time of each auction item is very short, no more than fifteen seconds at most, such a compact process makes a hundred trial students extremely nervous, looking at the changes in the number of jΓΉ on the light screen, they don't even dare to blink their eyes.
ββUntil the end of the three-hour auction, the light screen in front of me suddenly disappeared.
Zha Xinhai took out his light brain, pressed it cracklingly, and chanted the words blankly: "480...... 512β¦β¦ 669β¦β¦ 840β¦β¦ 985οΌ β
After calculating the specific number, the young man's breathing suddenly became heavy--heew, he was finally able to buy the C-class Fengqing mecha back!
Thank you Barrett College!
Thank you for the Moon of Trials!
Thank...... Right! He also has to thank Lin Cha! If it weren't for Lin Xuemei's god-level collection, he would definitely not be able to scrape together this money!
Zha Xinhai looked up at Lin Cha gratefully, but when he saw Candida Bicks beside her, his face suddenly dropped again--how could he not have discovered that this Bix junior actually had such kraft candy-like tenacity before? This is too stubborn, right?!
Looking at Lin Cha, who was entangled by Candida Bix, Zha Xinhai expressed deep sympathy.
Yu Shang, who had been paying attention to Lin Cha, also saw this scene, she frowned deeply, and the remarks of "illegitimate daughter" couldn't help but appear in her ears again, making her extremely unhappy.
Walking over in three steps and two steps, Yu Sheng stepped in/into the middle between her and Candida Bix: "Lin Cha, I just have something to look for you." β
After forcing back the Bix boy with sharp eyes, Yu Sheng led Lin Cha to the platform, searched her intestines and finally found a topic related to her: "Do you remember lawyer Cheng Yuanguang?" He asked me to sue you for the evidence of the family, and he has already collected it, and when your adult day is over, he can officially sue them. β
"Really?" Lin Cha politely smiled gratefully at Yu Shang, "Then I really have to thank Lawyer Cheng Yuanguang." Thank you, Director of General Affairs, for your message. Can I go now? β
"Huh? Well. Yu Sheng nodded a little reluctantly, not only did this child not want to stay with her, but he didn't even want to talk to her?
Yu Sheng sighed in a daze and gently closed the door to the conference room.
After confirming that the conference room was empty, the figure of the young Bix suddenly flashed out of the air.
Candida Bix, who overheard the conversation between the two, was extremely excited: Could it be that Lin Cha is not an illegitimate daughter, but an orphan of a big family?! If that's the case, then Lin tea is more valuable to pursue!
Without further ado, Candida Bix immediately dialed the video call at home, and a middle-aged man in a tuxedo immediately appeared on the screen.
"Young Master." The middle-aged man bowed respectfully to the young man.
Candida Bix couldn't wait to instruct: "Butler Bill, you go and help me check, fifteen or six years ago, was there a family of nobles surnamed Lin who fell because of the accidental death of the head of the family!" I want all the information about it! Especially about the immediate family of the head of the Lin family! β
Listening to his young master's inexplicable instructions, Butler Bill seemed very accustomed to it: "I will do my best to pass the information to your optical brain!" β
Candida Bix reassuredly emphasized: "It must be fast! β
"Yes."
After turning off the light screen, Butler Bill frowned a little puzzled, why did the Lin family that the young master said make him feel a sense of dΓ©jΓ vu?
The key words "Lin family", "accidental death of the head of the family", and "decline" quickly combined in his mind, and soon, the middle-aged housekeeper gasped suddenly, it couldn't be that person's Lin family, right? ββ
Tianliang King Po Lin Yuanshu?!
