When He Zhan and Xiao Lou arrived at the auction house, the auction was already over, and Tong Yan's smiling eyes narrowed as he took the huge sum of money he had just received.
Shang Xun looked disgusted, "Can you restrain yourself a little? After all, you are a disciple of my Demon Sect and a person with status."
Tong Yan responded shamelessly, "What kind of identity do you have? I don't even have my ID card."
It's a pity that no one here can understand what she said.
Putting the bag containing the spirit stones, he patted it a few times uneasily, and then let go after making sure it was secure. With a brisk jump, he jumped out of the door like a child, climbed three steps and landed on the ground.
Shang Xun felt helpless and couldn't help but mock, "Why are you acting like a fool..."
He wanted to return it but didn't know if it was too late.
Yi Wei followed Shang Xun and kept laughing. It was clear that the man's eyes were full of doting, but he wanted to harm the girl's family rudely. She didn't know if this was the only pair of masters and disciples who got along like this.
Tong Yan didn't care about Shang Xun's words. She was in the excitement of being rich now and was very generous. She would not care about such details with an old man like her master.
At this time, two people came over on the road, and one of them called out before he even came near.
"Sister Yan."
Looking through the sound, it turned out to be He Zhan, with Xiao Lou following behind him. Tong Yan was surprised, "A Zhan? Why are you here?"
She remembered that the treatment would not end for a day or two.
He Zhan pursed his lips and smiled, "I ended it early, so I came down the mountain to find you... and the young sect master." He glanced at Shang Xun next to him, and He Zhan paused before adding the words "young sect master."
As soon as she saw He Zhan, Yi Wei was attracted by his clear blue eyes. The lights from all directions reflected in his eyes, making him look like stars.
She thought to herself: What a young man with an exotic style.
Then he came to Tong Yan and asked, "Sister Tong, are they your friends?"
Tong Yan introduced several people to each other, "My brother He Zhan, he is Xiao Lou." Then he introduced Yi Wei, "The eldest lady of the Yi family, Yi Wei."
Hearing Tong Yan introduce himself as his younger brother, He Zhan's eyes darkened slightly, and he nodded to Yi Wei as a greeting.
Yi Wei responded with a polite smile and took the opportunity to take a closer look at his eyes, feeling that those eyes looked very much like the civet cat she had raised when she was a child.
A bit distant and wary.
Of course, she just thought these eyes were very beautiful and had no extra thoughts.
At this time, the night was getting darker, and it was not convenient to stand on the roadside talking, so Yi Wei suggested, "I have reserved a private room in the restaurant, why don't we all change places to talk together."
Tong Yan, who had not eaten dinner, was already a little hungry. Hearing what she said, he naturally agreed. When Tong Yan nodded, it was impossible for He Zhan Xiaolou not to go, and only Shang Xun was left.
Everyone looked at Shang in unison.
Shang Xun glanced at everyone. They were all juniors. They might be uncomfortable if he was there, and said, "You go."
Shang Xun left, and the remaining four people went to the restaurant. When they got on the carriage, Tong Yan looked at a person not far away and asked He Zhan: "Who is that person? Do you know her? I saw her looking at us all the time. Is she
Came with you?"
He Zhan glanced coldly into the distance, and before he could explain, Xiao Lou spoke first: "A Zhan saved her on the way and has been following us since then. Don't pay attention to her."
Tong Yan frowned when he heard this, and withdrew his gaze from the woman. After all, he planned to ignore it like Xiao Lou said.
The restaurant was not far from the auction house, and they arrived in a short while. The four of them went to the private room on the second floor. When they first sat down, the atmosphere was a little quiet due to unfamiliarity, but after eating, the scene quickly became much more harmonious.
After drinking some wine, Tong Yan ran to open the window and let in the cool breeze. When he was leaning against the window and looking down, he saw the woman He Zhan and the others had rescued again.
She stood thinly in the night wind, tilting her head and looking at something in trance. Occasionally she would look at the restaurant when she remembered.
Yi Wei saw her standing by the window for a long time, as if looking at something, so she came over curiously, "What are you looking at so fascinatedly?"
Looking along her line of sight, she saw the woman downstairs. Yi Wei didn't feel anything at all, but after thinking for a moment, she said to Tong Yan, "Would you like me to have someone call her up?"
Tong Yan looked at her, his eyes hesitant, and after a moment he said, "How about giving her something to eat."
Soon, someone brought food to the woman downstairs. She was surprised when she received the things. The person who sent the things seemed to have said something to her. The woman looked up at Tong Yan's position accurately.
After their eyes met for a moment, Tong Yan withdrew his gaze and returned to the table.
After having had enough wine and food, more than half an hour had passed. When he was going downstairs and getting on the carriage to return to the Yi Mansion, Tong Yan stopped and looked around.
Finally, the woman was found next to a pillar.
When she saw Tong Yan and the others coming out, she immediately stood up from the ground. Judging from her appearance, it was very likely that she would follow the carriage until they arrived at the Yi Mansion.
He Zhan was behind Tong Yan. He looked at the woman next to him and lowered his eyes to observe the expression on her face.
He looked at the woman again, a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes, and suddenly walked over.
The woman looked at him in surprise as he stopped in front of her, "Well... my benefactor."
He Zhan's eyes were cold and he put a storage bag in her hand, "Don't follow us anymore."
After saying that, he immediately turned around and came back. When he faced Tong Yan, his eyes showed no coldness or impatience towards the woman.
"It's okay, Sister Yan, let's go." After returning, He Zhan stretched out his hand and gestured to help Tong Yan get into the car.
"What did you do?" Tong Yan asked.
He Zhan smiled, as docile as a neighbor's brother, "I gave her some spiritual stones and asked her to find a place to stay."
Tong Yan nodded clearly, and then got on the car neatly and entered the compartment as if he had settled a big event.
Seeing this, He Zhan smiled quietly, he did the right thing.
She wanted to lend a helping hand, but seemed to be hesitant due to concerns, so she left it to him.
The carriage finally stopped outside the gate of Yi Mansion. Tong Yan got out of the car and scanned it casually. When he saw that no one was following him, he strode into the manor.
Probably because she was bitten by a snake once, was afraid of well ropes for ten years, and had the experience of Qian Chuanzi and Qian Xiao in Gulang City before, she had a shadow over her inadvertent act of kindness.
She occasionally rescues people or lends a helping hand, not because she believes that good deeds will be rewarded, but because she felt that she had the ability to do it but did not do it at the time, which will cause her to think about it for a long time.
Yi Wei ordered her servants to prepare guest rooms for the two guests. After He Zhan Xiaolou and the maid left, she pulled Tong Yan and stopped talking.
Tong Yan saw her hesitant look and was very puzzled, "What's wrong? If you have anything to say, just say it."
Yi Wei hugged her arm tightly and told her: "My eldest brother is out of prison."
"When?" When she went out in the afternoon, there was no news at all.
"About an hour ago." Yi Wei nudged Tong Yan suggestively and asked, "When are we going to see big brother."
With Tong Yan around, it would be hard for the elder brother to chase him away in person.
"How about tomorrow?" She knew that this girl treated her so well, it must be because of Ji Xing, but after getting along with her for a few days, she quite liked this brother-controlled girl.
After all, people have short hands. If Yi Wei just wanted to see Ji Xing, she thought she could shamelessly grant her request.
