Female Novel
Chapter 495 The Auction
Chen Hao stared at the person in front of him coldly.
He could already feel that this person was not ordinary based on the way he was breathing.
Whoosh!
Right then, lights flashed and a few figures suddenly appeared behind Chen Hao.
They were four people who were all dressed in the same black robes.
Just like the person in front of him, he knew that their skills were much higher than his own.
The Mo family? Chen Hao couldn’t help but take a guess.
“Chen Hao, I have two things to talk to you about today!” Just then, the man in black in front of him
finally spoke.
Based on the voice, it was an elderly man.
“What is it?”
The man in black continued, “The Chen family has been around for many generations, and it has
always been a very rich and important family. You, as the Chen family’s young master, have
embarrassed yourself by being a live-in son-in-law and ruined your reputation! For this, our first reason
here is to teach you a lesson!”
“You know who I am? You don’t sound like someone from the Mo family,” Chen Hao questioned.
The man in black didn’t answer.
Suddenly, the man moved and appeared right in front of Chen Hao.
Slap! Slap! Without waiting for Chen Hao to react, two loud harsh slaps had already landed on Chen
Hao’s face.
In another quick flash, the man in black returned to his original position.
He had moved extremely quickly, and everything seemed to have happened in just a blink of an eye.
Chen Hao didn’t even have the chance to defend himself.
Wh-Who are they? Chen Hao felt more shock arise inside him.
“Secondly, I have received orders from my Lord to come here and take you to see him. However, this
King Ginseng is extremely beneficial to you, so I have assigned four bodyguards, East, South, West
and North, to be by your side. When the time comes, they will take you away!”
“East, South, West and North?”
“Yes!”
“For this period of time, you must stay by Chen Hao’s side and listen to his every word. After he gets
the King Ginseng, bring him back to meet the Lord!” The man in black commanded.
“Understood!”
After the four men in black nodded, they all prepared to leave.
“Hold on! Who is the Lord?” Chen Hao asked, holding his cheek.
He had only received two slaps, but those slaps had already caused the corners of Chen Hao’s mouth
to bleed.
“You’ll know when you see him!” Then, the man in black left.
That was strange.
This group of men in black had talent unseen before in this world, and had abilities that way surpassed
the Mo family’s.
Could there actually be even stronger people than the Mo family in this world?
Chen Hao was deep in thought.
If only Uncle Qin was still by his side! He would definitely know where these people came from.
As for the four guards, they didn’t say anything to Chen Hao apart from nodding.
This caused Chen Hao to feel bewildered but helpless.
It seemed like he wouldn’t know who they were until he saw the ‘Lord’ they were referring to.
However, with what was going on now, it wasn’t very convenient to bring them around, so Chen Hao
told them to go back to the Villa.
As for himself, he still had to stay in the Yu Family’s house.
Currently, at the Yu Family house.
“It’s good that he isn’t here. Who knows, maybe he actually went off and died somewhere! Don’t let me
see him ever again, because I feel annoyed whenever I see him. Anyway, I called you all over here to
discuss something important!” Su Hong had called all of the family members to the living room.
Yu Jinfei didn’t know where Chen Hao had run off to.
Su Hong said, “I’ve connected with a number of powerful people from different countries recently. They
really want the King Ginseng, and have all set high prices for it!”novelbin
“But mom, didn’t you say that the price wasn’t an issue? As long as we still own this thing, it will
continue to bring us harm. If we can get rid of it, then we should! There are already way too many
forces aiming for this King Ginseng, yet you went and contacted even more buyers?” Yu Jinxiang said
in surprise.
“Hmph, silly child! Don’t you understand that the more buyers we get and the stronger they are, the
better it is for our family? Let them fight over it! They’re powerful enough anyway, and in the end, the
powers within Tian City can’t win! This way, not only can we get rid of our troubles, we can also
strengthen our power in Tian City! We can kill two birds with one stone!”
“Ah, I get it! This way, those little forces in Tian City will know that they should back down!” Yu Jinxiang
nodded.
“That’s right! I’ve already chosen the dates. The public auction to sell off the King Ginseng will take
place three days later! When that happens, we only have to watch them fight! Our family will win either
way,” Su Hong said with a light smile.
Even though the actual leader of the household of the Yu family was Yu Jinxiang’s dad, Su Hong’s
position in the Yu family was a little like that of an Empress. Everything was looked over by her.
For example, she was also in charge of matters relating to the King Ginseng.
Her ability to think of such an evil plan definitely showcased the schemes of this woman.
“Starting from tomorrow, a lot of forces will gather here. So for the next three days, you two must not go
anywhere and stay here to help me greet the guests. Do you understand?” Su Hong commanded.
She gave a dissatisfied glance at her oldest daughter, Yu Jinfei.
However, the two sisters just nodded.
“Ah, Chen Hao! When did you come back?” Right then, Yu Jinxiang yelled cunningly.
Chen Hao had opened the door and entered the living room.
“Hmph, useless boy! After this auction, leave my house!” Su Hong glanced at Chen Hao with hatred
before turning to go upstairs once more.
As for everything that Su Hong had talked about just now, Chen Hao had heard it all from the outside.
He cursed this old woman’s scheming tactics inwardly.
She actually wanted to let so many forces fight among themselves.
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day.
Just as Su Hong had described, the news of the auction caused a big uproar within Tian City once it
was announced.
After all, the price of the King Ginseng was immeasurable.
Who could have guessed that the King Ginseng was really in the Yu Family’s hands?
Many forces within Tian City, both big and small, had received the invitation to the auction.
The whole city was in a ruckus.
At the same time, the dark forces from abroad were arriving one by one.
In just a day, every hotel in Tian City, whether big or small, was fully booked.
Tian City was livelier than never before.
Of course, Chen Hao wasn’t wrong with his early assumption.
This scheme of Su Hong’s really caused bloodshed.
Today morning, two forces from Tian City had a gunfight and both of them suffered great losses,
backing out of the auction that same day.
Right now, there were two people who were currently the most significant within Tian City.
They were Wen Sen Group and Tian Long Group.
As for the head of Wen Sen Group, Wen Sen, he had not shown his face to this day. This made people
start talking, and there were rumors that Wen Sen had met his match and died in some other place.
This caused quite a lot of power that originally belonged to Wen Sen Group to join the dark horse, Tian
Long Group.
As for the Yu family, being the organizers, they were extremely busy.
They specially booked the Long Quan Mountain Villa as the venue, which was located in Da Jing area
of Tian City.
Su Hong and her two daughters had been taking care of VIP guests from all over the world in Long
Quan Mountain Villa since day one.
Quite a few people from Dragon City also came over to join in the fun, taking a look at the liveliness
that had not taken place in Tian City for decades.
“Mom, there are too many people here! It’s impossible for all of them to stay in Long Quan Mountain
Villa! We’re packed to the brim!” Yu Jinxiang complained.
Today, Yu Jinxiang had even asked her classmates to help out.
“Ah, you silly girl. What did I tell you? There are many forces that are joining us here today, and after
counting, there are only eighteen forces that need to stay here. We don’t need to bother about the rest.
Right! You have to be cautious. The two big forces of Tian City, Tian Long Group and Wen Sen Group,
need special treatment. After we settle the King Ginseng, we still need to interact with the two of them!
So remember, we can’t offend either of them!” Su Hong seemed to remember something as she
reminded the two sisters.
