Ximen Longting walked over, took her off the bed, and stuffed her into the bathroom to wash up.
Jing Jiaren was already in a bad mood because of the anklet, so she avoided the toothbrush cup he handed over: "I won't brush."
"Then wash your face."
"No washing."
"So dirty?" He wetted a towel and wiped her face, "It's so cute even when you're having trouble."
"..." Jing Jiaren, "You want to take me to a public place to show my face?"
"Auction."
"Why go to the auction?"
"I have taken a fancy to a rare treasure, and I want to take you to buy it for you personally." Ximen Longting squeezed out the toothpaste and handed it to her.
Now, for her, the biggest gift is that Cang Lang's illness can be cured, and she is not interested in anything else.
Three hours later, City S.
Ximen Longting's royal helicopter parked at the private airfield, and then he took a car to the auction site.
Jing Jiaren didn't understand why Ximen Longting had to take her on a long trip at this time.
Aren't you afraid of being caught by Leng Lintian's people if you wander around like this?
If it were in the past, if Ximen Longting liked something, he would just ask his servants to take pictures of it.
What is it that is so important that you have to buy it in person?
Along the way, no matter what Jing Jiaren asked, Ximen Longting just smiled mysteriously: "You will know when we get there."
The luxurious auction house was already overcrowded.
Gold foil wallpaper, sparkling crystal chandeliers, and silver noble seats are spectacularly arranged.
Such occasions are always crowded with reporters and bodyguards are everywhere.
Before Jing Jiaren got off the bus, Ximen Longting handed her a peacock mask.
Ximen Longting is a silver fox mask.
Jing Jiaren was full of questions and wanted to see what tricks he wanted to play today.
Elegantly on the arm of Ximen Longting, followed only by Wilson and five personal bodyguards.
As soon as she entered the auction house, Jing Jiaren discovered that 60% of the guests here today were couples, which rarely happened.
Avoiding the crowds, the receptionist took them to the VIP area on the second floor.
Jing Jiaren took off her gray mink coat, revealing a tight gray dress underneath.
On the auction stage, beautiful models are wearing gemstone chains and posing in various enchanting poses, and the auction is going on.
"Did you notice anything special?" Ximen Longting asked, narrowing his eyes slightly.
"Many of the people here today are couples."
"You know why?"
"Is today a couple's event?"
The receptionist traced his finger on the glass table. It turned out that there was a touch-screen computer built into the table. He introduced that all the goods in today's auction were displayed here, including those that had been sold and those that were about to be sold.
Jing Jiaren clicked and looked at it. They were just some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and jewelry, nothing special.
Suddenly, she saw the next thing that was about to go on sale were two paste-like things in the opened lunch box.
Like something edible...
There is an English version of the explanation next to it. This is called "Luan Feng Paste", which comes from Egypt. Luan: a type of phoenix. A male immortal bird.
Jing Jiaren asked in surprise: "Is this the medicine that can save Cang Lang?"
Ximen Longting frowned: "Why do you always think about that servant?"
"It's not his medicine?" Jing Jiaren was overjoyed, "Then what is this?"
"These men and women come here here because they are eager to get the good things. Of course, that's why I brought you here to auction and buy in person today."
