Xue An looked at Qin Yu with an indifferent expression and said nothing.
And this silence made Qin Yu’s face grow increasingly ugly.
Finally.
Unable to restrain herself, she turned around and snapped, “You two, pack your things and get out of here now! And never set foot in Longtai Group ever again. ”
This decision cast a look of despair on the faces of Sun Bo and Zhao Feng.
In Beijiang, getting into Longtai Group was something many envied.
Sun Bo, in particular, had finally worked his way up to the position of director of the security department at Longtai Group, with a considerable annual income.
Now, because of this man, he was being thrown out by the young miss.
Like someone who had lost everything, Sun Bo fell to his knees and started begging for mercy.
“Young Miss, I beg you, please give me another chance. I won’t dare to do it again! It was all because of that woman’s instigation that I was momentarily confused and offended Mr. Xue, please give me one more chance,” he pleaded.
As Sun Bo spoke, he kept knocking his head against the floor with a thumping sound.
Before long, blood began seeping out from his forehead.
As for Cao Qian…
At that moment, she was so scared that she shrank into a corner, not even daring to breathe heavily.
Qin Yu was expressionless.
She was thoroughly disgusted with these two, who were more of a liability than an asset.
If she weren’t worried about making a scene, she wouldn’t have bothered pleading for them.
Just then, Xue An stood up and said lightly, “Respect is earned by oneself, and each time you use it, there is less left. So, I hope in the future, you won’t let me have another chance to look at your face.”
After finishing, Xue An picked up Xue Xiang and Xue Nian and left first. Qin Yu glared fiercely at Sun Bo, “Get out of here now!”
Sun Bo trembled all over, his face showing a look of utter despair.
To the salesgirl who had already been scared silly, Qin Yu said, “Pack up all the clothes we liked just now.”
“Yes!”
Only after they had left the Silver Long Department Store did Xue Xiang quietly approach Xue An’s ear and ask, “Daddy, are our new clothes pretty?”
At that moment, Xue Xiang and Xue Nian were wearing pink princess dresses, looking incredibly cute.
Xue An’s face showed indulgence only when facing his two daughters, “Pretty, you both look like little princesses.”
Just then, Qin Yu ran out, looking very apologetic, wanting to say something.
Xue An said indifferently, “Drive!”
The auction this time was not in the city, but at a mountain-top villa in the suburbs of Beijiang.
By the time Qin Yu drove there, the villa was already surrounded by luxury cars.
However, when Qin Yu’s car arrived, it still drew plenty of attention.
“Isn’t that the Qin Family’s car?” “Yes! It looks like the Qin Family’s young miss’s car!”
“Hey, why is Qin Yu driving herself?”
Many people whispered among themselves, and after Qin Yu got out of the car, she didn’t enter the venue but opened the car door with great respect instead.
Many people’s eyes widened.
The Young Miss of Longtai Group, actually opening the car door for someone herself,
Just who was this person?
The first person to get out of the car was Fan Mengxue.
Many recognized her and couldn’t help but let out a series of low exclamations.
“Fan Mengxue!”
“She’s come to Beijiang too?”
But after Fan Mengxue got out of the car, she didn’t leave but stood on the other side.
It seemed she too was waiting for an important guest.
Many people’s gazes were fixated on her.
Who exactly was in this car?
That there was such a commotion?
However, when the next moment came, and the ones who got out of the car were two little girls,
These two young girls, with their hair coifed and dressed in princess gowns, looked exactly alike, the very image of little fairies stepped out of a painting.
Finally, Xue An slowly made his way down.
As soon as he appeared, many people began to whisper to each other.
“Who is that man?”
“Don’t know! But he seems to be someone of no little importance!”
“Mhm, Qin Yu’s demeanor towards this man is filled with respect!”
Xue An’s gaze swept around the venue, then he proceeded forward with an indifferent expression.
Just then, Qin Yuan strode out of the house, and in front of all the astonished onlookers, rushed up to Xue An, bowing his head in deep respect.
“Mr. Xue, you’ve arrived!”
Xue An nodded.
However, he was unaware that Qin Yuan’s gesture had set off tumultuous waves in the hearts of many.
What was Qin Yuan’s status?
The real power behind Longtai Group, a high and mighty individual in Beijiang who could practically do as he pleased.
Although over the past year, he had been somewhat sidelined by Qin Tian, his influence was still formidable.
And yet, such a figure was showing such respect to this man.
What kind of background did he have?
However, just as people were reeling in astonishment, a voice laced with mockery sounded.
“I thought some important big shot had arrived, but it turns out to be just a greenhorn youngster!”
Following this voice, an old man, dressed in Tang attire and clutching two large iron balls, slowly stepped into the venue.
His arrival made many stand up. “Greetings, Master Tan!”
“Greetings, Museum Director Tan!”
With an expressionless face, the old man nodded and then approached Qin Yuan, chuckling.
“Old Qin, long time no see, you’re looking well!”
Seeing that it was him, Qin Yuan immediately greeted him with a respectful fist and palm salute, “Museum Director Tan, you’ve come!”
“Of course I came; after so many years, knowing you’re in trouble, how could I not come to help?” the old man said dispassionately.
This old man was Tan Dong, the head of the largest martial arts institute in Beijiang, the Zhenbei Martial Institute.
He was also a good friend of Qin Yuan.
He had heard about Qin Yuan’s recent troubles, so he had come specially to offer help.
But as soon as he stepped out of the car, he saw Qin Yuan showing great respect to a young man.
This irked Tan Dong.
In his opinion, Qin Tian was utterly insignificant.
With his own intervention, he was confident that any problems could be resolved.
And yet, Qin Yuan was showing such respect to an unknown man, clearly doubting his own strength.
So, with a challenging look, he scrutinized Xue An from head to toe, and upon finding Xue An slender and seemingly not a martial artist, his disdain grew.
“Where is this young brother from?” Tan Dong asked.
But Xue An didn’t pay him any attention at all, simply leading a daughter by hand, sauntering past Tan Dong.
Now Tan Dong’s face truly began to harden.
What an arrogant youngster!
Humph, just wait, and I’ll show you soon enough that the old ginger is spicier.
Given Qin Yuan’s status, it naturally came with a private box.
Xue An and the others entered this box, sipping tea as they waited for the event to begin.
While they were waiting, a commotion arose outside, as Qin Tian walked in, leading a lean old man.
Upon laying eyes on this old man, Xue An’s eyebrows raised ever so slightly.
There was a scent of Ghost Cultivator on this man.
Ghost Cultivators were a significant faction in the world of cultivation, with numerous masters emerging from their ranks, such as the ten lords of the Netherworld Realm.
But this man’s cultivation level was too shallow.
Nonetheless, Xue An could now confirm that the female ghost on Qin Yuan was definitely sent by him..
