Chapter 42: Shia and Letilia
"Look, there are three of them. You know the president uncle. The other two are the bank president uncle and the city lord uncle."
Xia pointed in the direction of Drayton and others and introduced them to Luo Qiu.
"President, City Lord..." Luo Qiu squinted his eyes and looked at him for two seconds before looking away.
With the insight of the 'Eye of the Living Being', there is almost nothing he cannot see through.
Naturally, some secrets of Jolin Constance were also discovered.
For example, the city lord's martial arts value is one of the highest in the whole venue. For another example, the faint magic power emanating from the city lord is almost the same as those who invaded Starlight Trading Company two days ago.
Just when Luo Qiu was finding it interesting, he suddenly noticed that Xia's breathing next to him became rapid and he made an indignant sound.
This action caught the attention of Letilia, who had remained silent.
"Xia? What's wrong with you?" Letilia asked.
Xia didn't say anything, she just pointed her finger in a certain direction.
Following her finger, Leticia frowned slightly.
In the direction Xia pointed, there was a chubby nobleman holding a beauty in his left and right hands, with an expression of enjoyment on his face.
The two beauties also had a flattering look on their faces. They didn't care about the fat nobleman's actions at all. Instead, they actively stuck to his fat body and said something in his ear with a seductive smile.
This fat nobleman was none other than Dark Elroyeken, who had almost caused a big fight in Hidon Paradise that day. The three adventurers who were responsible for protecting him were still guarding behind him dutifully. Judging from the expressions on their faces, it seemed that they had also enjoyed themselves during these two days.
"That fat pig!" Xia was furious.
"He seems to be having a great time these past two days." Luo Qiu smiled.
"You're still laughing. If it weren't for you, I would have definitely taught him a lesson." Xia glared at Luo Qiu with dissatisfaction.
"Girl, I helped you."
"Don't call me a girl!"
Looking at the two people bickering, Letilia was silent for a moment before interrupting and asking, "Xia, do you have a grudge against that person?"
"We almost had a grudge!" Xia said angrily.
"Almost?" Leticia looked confused. Is there such a thing as almost having a grudge?
"Letilia, you don't know, that fat pig..." Xia began to tell Letilia what happened in a rambling manner, using extremely exaggerated expressions to describe Dark as a collection of almost all the negative images in the world.
"Is it that exaggerated?" After hearing what Xia said, Letilia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was originally quite disgusted with Danik's current image, but what Xia said was a little too unrealistic.
"You don't believe me!" Xia's eyes widened. She reached out and pushed Luo Qiu, saying, "Hey, third-rate adventurer, tell Letilia if I lied or not."
"No one will believe what you said, okay?" Luo Qiu said something fair.
"What did you say?" Xia exuded a dangerous aura.
"Cough, well, nothing, that fat guy is really annoying." Luo Qiu coughed dryly and immediately changed the subject.
After hearing this, Xia smiled, her eyes curved into crescents, and said, "Letilia, did you hear that? That fat guy is really disgusting and annoying."
"Yes, yes." Letilia responded to Xia with a smile, and then she changed the subject and asked, "How did you two know each other?"
Letilia was very curious. In her impression, adventurers like Xia and Luo Qiu should always be on two parallel lines.
"How did you know each other?" Xia rolled his eyes and asked cunningly, "Third-rate adventurer, how did we know each other?"
He kicked the ball to Luo Qiu very cleverly. "How should I know?"
"Well, we don't know." Xia shrugged at Letilia.
"You guys..." Letilia looked at the two people who were singing the same tune with suspicion, with a look of distrust on her face.
"Hey, Letilia, by the way, I saw you and Luo Qiu dating at my house that day."
As soon as Xia said this, Luo Qiu's face twitched noticeably.
"A date... a date... a date... a date?" Leticia stammered.
"Stop talking nonsense! We are just...just...just..."
Letilia said "just" three times but still couldn't come up with any reason.
"Just what?" Xia had a devilish smile on his face.
Letilia's pretty face flushed, but she was still speechless.
She didn't want to tell Xia that she owed Luo Qiu a favor after she made a mistake at work.
"We were just discussing work matters."
At this time, Luo Qiu rescued Leticia.
"Yes! We were just... discussing work!" Letilia looked at Luo Qiu gratefully. For the first time, she found that this adventurer was not as annoying as she had imagined.
"You want to come to my house to discuss work matters? Why don't I believe it?"
"Of course the atmosphere in your home is better." Letilia gave a very forced reason. God knows why she and that adventurer ended up in Heaton Paradise.
"That's true..." Xia accepted the compliment without any modesty. Indeed, because of the environment and atmosphere, many businessmen and nobles in Rose Lowe like to go to Heaton Paradise when discussing important matters.
"But I still don't believe it." Xia said with a smile: "Letilia, you have been working for so long and I have never seen you bring people to my house to discuss work matters. Why are you so kind this time?"
Letilia was so angry that her teeth were itching. If Luo Qiu hadn't been between them, she would have been unable to resist pinching Xia's cute little mouth to make her say less.
After all, the real owner was still sitting next to her. What if Luo Qiu really misunderstood something and made some terrible demands? Letilia would never forget that Luo Qiu had gone to the "Man's Nest" to have fun.
Fortunately, at this time, the auction stage that everyone had been looking forward to finally opened.
The originally extremely noisy scene became quiet, and the colorful magic lights focused on the platform in the center of the entire auction hall.
"Welcome everyone to the annual auction of Rose Lowe Starlight Trading Company."
The effect of the sound amplification magic enveloped the entire venue.
"Next, please welcome our auctioneer today—Master 'Insight' Fulide!"
As soon as the three words "Fuli De" appeared, there was an explosion of discussion in the audience.
The benefit of Huiyan is that his fame is so great that most of the people who come to the auction are people of some status, and naturally they have heard of this person through different channels.
But no one expected that the chief appraiser of Starlight Trading Company, who had retired for a long time, would appear today, and as an auctioneer.
Amid the passionate music and heated discussions in the audience, a beam of silver light lit up in the center of the podium, and Fu Lide, dressed in an old gentleman's suit, walked out of the silver beam.
Luo Qiu looked at this scene with a little surprise: "They actually used teleportation magic? This operation is good."
I have to go to BJ for a four-day business trip. What should I do? I'm so nervous. I have to postpone it again ((((ToT)~~~
