The most poisonous female supporting role in the apocalypse

Chapter 37 Bidding
Different from Su Tang's idea, Meng Huo didn't do this to make Meng Xiang give up.

It can be said that his purpose is just the opposite.

The more you can't get it, the more you can't let it go. This is a common problem of many people.

Meng Xiang also had it, and it was quite serious.

Self-proclaimed the proud son of heaven, but can't ask for it... Meng Huo evoked subtle ridicule, since you insist on coveting someone who doesn't belong to you, you should have a good taste of it!

They sat next to each other with a tea table in between.Su Tang, who was sitting on the outside, carefully flipped through the auction catalogue, forgetting about the turbulent dark tide around him.For her, finding something useful to arm herself is much more important than fighting with others.

Suddenly, the hand that turned the page stopped, and her eyes fell on a photo.

It was a pair of white jade earrings.

The texture indicated in the introduction text is "mutton fat jade". It is difficult to judge whether it is true or false just by looking at the photos.Although Su Tang felt that "this luster does not seem to be like mutton fat jade", what attracted her more was the pattern on the oval white jade fixed by the gold bracket.Although it's only a small piece, it looks very familiar, and I can't remember where I saw it!
"You like this?" Meng Huo glanced at the photo, a little surprised.He thought that with her temperament, she would be interested in weapons, metals, or medicinal materials or crystal nuclei.Unexpectedly, what she took a fancy to was a pair of earrings. "This thing, because it was excavated from the ancient ruins, was given a name that can increase the success rate of promotion, just to bluff people."

Ancient ruins?Su Tang smiled, but he cared more in his heart.

With the whispers, the lights in the hall also dimmed a little bit, people slowly quieted down, and the auction was about to start.

At this time, Lu Nuan's voice sounded, "Su Tang, can you sit next to me? I want to talk to you about uncle."

Su Tang's anticipation was interrupted, and he felt slightly unhappy.

The other party's tone seemed to be discussing, but it was restrained and tough, which made her feel very uncomfortable.She didn't move, "The auction is about to start, it's inappropriate to chat. If it's about the boss, I'll take time to visit him in the store."

Lu Nuan hit a nail, and her voice cooled down, "Really, then forget it."

Ignoring Meng Xiang's suspicious eyes, she sneered in her heart.

Really... I don't know how to flatter...

She is obviously very weak, but she puts on a lot of airs, and the one she relies on is the man beside her, right?
In this regard, she underestimated her.

I thought it was only because of her face that Meng Xiang could not forget her, but after a few days of seeing each other, she and Meng Huo had already developed to this point.

Lu Nuan's mood was inexplicably gloomy.

She didn't pay attention to this man Meng Huo at first, but put all her attention on Meng Xiang who rescued her and brought her back.But people are the most incomparable. After the chance meeting in Jingge, she found that Meng Xiang is indeed outstanding if seen alone, but when put together with Meng Huo, she will be compared.

Although Meng Huo tried to keep a low profile, she had seen a lot of male supernatural beings in the northern city, and she was able to distinguish which one of them was really powerful and which one was stern.She believed in her own vision, Meng Huo had an aura of a strong man, the kind of control that could stabilize the audience!

Although it was rumored outside that he was just a shapeshifter, not as good as Meng Xiang with the wind ability, but in her opinion, the situation should be exactly the opposite.Meng Huo is definitely hiding his true strength!
After seeing him in Jinge last time, she would think of him from time to time, and this meeting made her feel even more vivid.

Perhaps, she should reconsider her future partner.After all, Meng Xiang, who would be irrational for a woman, is far less reliable than this man.

As for his relationship with Su Tang...

Lu Nuan proudly raised his chin when the host appeared on the auction stage and the crowd applauded. Would such a powerful man care about a woman he could easily get?No, he should have a broader future... and better choices!

She believed that as long as she offered a bargaining chip, he would never refuse!

Her face was even more radiant because of this thought, and under the softened light, it exuded a gorgeous beauty.

Meng Xiang accidentally turned his head, and was immediately attracted and couldn't look away.

If Su Tang knew all this, she would probably be very surprised, never expecting that the male protagonist has a tendency to turn his prodigal son back, but the female protagonist is running away on the road that is contrary to the original text!

However, she obviously didn't have time to pay attention.

The auction items on the auction platform alone are enough to attract her mind!
Whether it is a weapon or a crystal nucleus, real objects are far more attractive than photos.

Do you want to be included in the bag? !

Of course, she just looked at it with salivating little eyes.Even if Meng Huo, the "temporary lover", dutifully asked her if she wanted it, she was firmly rejected.Until the pair of earrings appeared in her vision...

The starting price of the earrings is 50 third-order crystal cores. Based on the exchange ratio of 1:[-], it is only ten fourth-order crystal cores, which is the lowest among the auction items.

It is just a transitional product to pave the way for the climax, and everyone knows it well.This thing might be considered an antique before the apocalypse, but after the apocalypse, apart from being artificially given a higher value, its actual function is only to enrich women's jewelry boxes.

There were very few people bidding. When the price reached [-] third-order crystal cores and the host shouted twice, Su Tang resolutely pressed the bidding device at hand.

Immediately the host received a message on the stage, "Guest No. 73, 750 crystal nuclei!" But before he shouted a second time, the news that arrived the next moment made his eyes freeze slightly, "Guest No. 68, [-] crystal nuclei!" nuclear!"

Number 68 is Meng Xiang's number.

In an instant, both Su Tang and Meng Huo turned their gazes to Meng Xiang, but unexpectedly, he also frowned slightly and looked to the side.Only then did they realize that the other person who pressed the bidder was Lu Nuan!

"Hey? Su Tang, do you like this pair of earrings too? What a coincidence, I..."

Before she could finish speaking, Su Tang pressed the bidder again.

"Guest 73, 850 crystal nuclei!"

It's not that she is a villain, if she listens to Lu Nuan's slow and useless explanation, the earrings will probably go to her family.At that time, what's the point of saying that you like it and that you must get it?
Lu Nuan glanced at her, glanced at Meng Huo, and suddenly smiled, "Sorry, I really like it, so we have to go our separate ways."

The host below was a little excited when he received the news, "Guest No. 68 bid for twenty pieces of fourth-order crystal nuclei! It's really eye-catching. This pair of earrings is not only high-quality jade, but also..."

Following his flattery, there was a murmur in the audience.

"Could this thing really help advance?"

"No way, there were similar ones in previous years, they were just accessories!"

"But this year is different. Didn't you see that the price of the bakery is getting higher and higher? Are the twenty fourth-order crystal nuclei just for a pair of earrings?!"

"This... who knows! There are too many crystal nuclei to burn!"

"...Can you be more thoughtless?"

"How dare you say I have no brains! Take a picture of it if you have the ability!"

"Am I crazy to fight with the people above!"

"..."

Despite all kinds of doubts, no one in the hall really went to bid.And the price war in the same private room is still going on.

"Guest No. 73, 21 fourth-order crystal nuclei! This guest is persistent in the earrings, which shows how attractive they are! Don't miss the opportunity, please..."

"Wait, the competitor strikes again! Guest No. 68, 25 fourth-order crystal nuclei!"

"Guest 73, 26 fourth-order crystal nuclei!"

"Guest 68, thirty fourth-order crystal nuclei!"

"..."

The price of earrings soared in the hands of Su Tang and Lu Nuan!
Meng Huo looked amused, but he wasn't worried that Su Tang wouldn't be able to take it.Just like what he said on the way here, she can buy the most expensive one here with her current wealth, not to mention this pair of earrings.Furthermore, since he said he would pay the bill, he naturally didn't care.On the contrary, Su Tang's expression of a kitten with fried hair and that stubborn attitude made him find it indescribably interesting.For the first time, seeing her like this.

Compared with his leisurely, Meng Xiang seemed impatient.

A pair of broken earrings...is it worth the noise?

A woman is indeed a woman!
However, he could also tell that both of them were really attracted to the earrings.

Trouble!
Theoretically, he should have helped Lu Nuan get it, and the relationship between the two is bound to get closer.But in this way, Su Tang, who bid first, would definitely be very angry with him.Thinking of her angry eyebrows, he couldn't help but hum.

Did this girl think he would give up because of Meng Huo?

What a joke!
Not only did he want to get her, but he also wanted her to admit willingly that he was not a little bit better than Meng Huo!
Thinking of this, he had an idea in his mind, and leaned out of the private room to find the waiter on this floor.

Although the two women are bidding fiercely, everyone has seen his movement.No one is stupid, if you go out at this time, what else can you do besides earrings?
A hint of anger appeared between Su Tang's brows.

She felt that she was still thinking wrong, even if Meng Liangguang didn't let Meng Xiang intervene in the auction, as the young city lord, he must still have certain privileges!

Needless to say, she will definitely not be the one who will benefit in the end!

The bidder in his hand took the bid, and the price suddenly rose to a higher level, "Guest 73, two fifth-order crystal nuclei!"

The atmosphere off the field has begun to boil.

There was a smile on Lu Nuan's lips, and Meng Xiang's actions finally made her feel relieved.

Putting on the posture of a local tyrant to bid for this pair of earrings was a lot of pressure for her.It's not that I can't afford the current number of crystal nuclei, but to be honest, it's almost the same as cutting meat.After all, although her father is the lord of the northern city, given how unfavorable she is, she can get too little, which is far from her status.Otherwise, she wouldn't have accepted uncle's crystal nucleus and stayed in that small furniture store.

If the stupid woman over there continues to raise the price, the result... is hard to say.

She didn't want to think that she couldn't compete with Su Tang, she only thought that she was squandering Meng Huo's favor.

He bit his lower lip involuntarily.

In fact, it was not a sudden impulse to bid for this earring that would bleed profusely.

This is a wonderful intuition. As soon as she saw it, she realized that it should belong to her!

When Meng Xiang came back, Lu Nuan had already raised the price to two fifth-order crystal cores and fifty fourth-order crystal cores under pressure.On the bidding stage, after receiving a piece of news that puzzled him, the host had no choice but to announce, "Because the owner of the earrings temporarily took back the earrings, it was decided through negotiation that this auction is invalid!"

There was an uproar downstairs.

This kind of thing is not uncommon, but it is definitely rare.

It's the most hateful to have a miscarriage on the verge of climax, okay?

Su Tang "Teng" in the private room got up and turned to Meng Xiang, "It's your fault!"

Meng Xiang sat back to his seat with a smile that was not a smile, "So what? Don't you say that everyone depends on their own ability? If Nuan Nuan wants that pair of earrings, I will naturally oblige." His eyes swept over Meng Huo, whose expression remained unchanged, and he felt Secretly sneered, falling back on Su Tang's face, he said proudly, "Some things, some things, can't be fulfilled with a crystal nucleus, you should think about it for yourself!"

Think about it!Isn't it just to overwhelm people with power!

Su Tang twisted his lips, his eyes flashed fiercely.She sat down slowly, but reached for her pocket with her hand.

A powerful big hand hijacked her halfway, and firmly held her small hand in the palm of her hand.

Meng Huo tilted his head and whispered in her ear, "Don't be impatient."

She stubbornly wanted to withdraw her hand, but the man insisted on not letting go, and finally had to sigh, "I promise..." I promise that what you want will be yours after all.

Su Tang took a few deep breaths before letting go of his strength.

Trust him again, if he can't, then don't blame her for doing it herself.Whoever's son or younger brother, she's had enough!Don't think that she is easy to bully, that if she can't cure people, she can't kill them!She would rather set foot on the vast world outside the city alone than stay here and be manipulated by others!
When she was angry with herself, Meng Huo smiled and stretched out his hand a few times, almost unable to hold her in his arms.

How can it be so cute?
It completely broke his usual perception of women.

Incompetent weakness, cowardly endurance, or arrogant domineering, concealed vanity, he would never see any of these in her.

Yes, it is independence, it is frankness, and it is the truth without falsehood.

He seems to be really tempted...

On the auction stage, the items that continued to be auctioned quickly attracted the attention of most people, and the turmoil caused by the miscarriage of the earring auction soon passed.

Only the four people in this private room, with different thoughts, became more or less careless.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door.

The auctioneer sent a brocade box, which contained exactly the pair of earrings that were auctioned.

Meng Xiang held the box, and the satisfaction in his heart was almost beyond words.

He even naively didn't hand it over to the eager Lu Nuan immediately, but held it under the eyes of Meng Huo and Su Tang. "It looks very ordinary. I really don't know what you women think. There is nothing to argue about this kind of thing."

Su Tang didn't bother to pay attention to him, and only looked at Meng Huo.

I'm not restless, what about your guarantee?

Meng Huo smiled slightly and stretched out his hand, "Although I didn't capture it, you don't mind letting me see it."

"of course not!"

Meng Huo took the brocade box in his hand, took out a pair of earrings inside, put it in his palm, and looked it over carefully, "The quality of the jade looks pretty good, but it's a bit small."

The other three were at a loss.

Especially Su Tang, you can't take it as mine if you look at it this way!

However, at the next moment, Meng Huo's hands suddenly tightened, Su Tang was dumbfounded, and even saw the tendons on his wrist protruding!
Meng Xiang stood up abruptly, while Lu Nuan screamed, "What are you doing?!"

Facing this scene, Meng Huo raised the corners of his lips, and opened his hand unhurriedly, a piece of powder lying on his palm impressively.

He blew it down lightly, and then raised his head to look at the two without sincerity, "It's too bad, it's too hard, it's too big."
