Chapter 1282: Chapter 1281: Antique Trading Hall

Seeing Chen Tianlong sitting on the bed, she immediately rolled her eyes, then walked over and pulled him up.

"What are you doing?" Chen Tianlong was yanked up for no reason and got a bit annoyed.

"Hmph, this is my bed, you’re not allowed to sit on it." Tan Xianglan said with her cheeks puffed in anger.

"Oh." As soon as Chen Tianlong finished speaking, he directly jumped onto the bed, lay down, and said with a grin, "There, I’m not sitting anymore, I’m lying down."

"You..."

"Say, wife Tan Xianglan, what are you trying to do, huh? Abuse your husband? Or are you going back on your word? If you want to back out, just say it." Chen Tianlong seized her weak spot and said.

"Hmph, who’s backing out? Sit then sit. But you haven’t showered yet, so you’re not allowed to sleep." Tan Xianglan pouted high and said.

"Fine, I’ll go shower first. You hurry and go in and warm up the bed for me, yeah." Chen Tianlong smirked mischievously, took a set of clothes out of his backpack, and ran into the bathroom.

By the time Chen Tianlong came out of the bathroom, it was already twelve o’clock.

Tan Xianglan was also a bit sleepy; wearing her pajamas, she had fallen asleep lying on the bed. Although Chen Tianlong didn’t have a great impression of her, Tan Xianglan wasn’t exactly a bad person either, so he got on the bed as well.

The autumn night was still a bit chilly. After Chen Tianlong pulled the quilt back over Xianglan, he tugged a small thin blanket for himself and wrapped up on the other side of the bed.

The night passed without incident. Early the next morning, Tan Xianglan woke up first. Seeing Chen Tianlong sleeping beside her, wrapped in a thin blanket while he had given her the thick quilt, her heart trembled and she felt a bit moved.

Growing up, she understood a woman’s allure to a man, and that this man beside her had also seen her yesterday. Yet at night, not only did he not lay a hand on her, he even helped tuck her in, while he himself slept cold.

"Sigh..."

Tan Xianglan suddenly thought that maybe this Shen Tian really took her as his girlfriend. She suddenly felt she’d been too heartless. After thinking for a bit, she pulled the quilt over him as well; now the two of them were under the same quilt.

Looking at the sky outside just beginning to lighten, she knew it was still early. So Tan Xianglan didn’t get up right away, planning instead to sleep a little longer.

Feeling the warmth, Chen Tianlong turned over and hugged Tan Xianglan, then continued snoring away.

In fact, Chen Tianlong was faking it. With his level of alertness, how could he not notice someone covering him with a quilt? Seeing this little chick suddenly acting kind, he decided to keep teasing her.

Being hugged like this by Chen Tianlong, Tan Xianglan immediately got a little flustered, but she didn’t want to disturb him. Judging by how he’d been shivering from the cold, he clearly hadn’t slept well all night. If she woke him, he’d definitely be dead tired.

So just like that, Tan Xianglan closed her eyes and tried not to think about who was holding her, which made her feel much more at ease. However, since Chen Tianlong was only pretending to sleep, he wasn’t going to be that well-behaved. Hugging her wasn’t enough; he even deliberately rubbed his hands on her a few times.

Instantly, Tan Xianglan didn’t know what to do.

After struggling for a while, Chen Tianlong finally calmed down. At this moment, Tan Xianglan suddenly had an illusion: if it were a freezing winter day and a beloved man held her like this while they slept in, that would actually be a very happy thing.

With Chen Tianlong holding her, she naturally felt incomparably warm. The two of them slept for a while longer like that. This time, Chen Tianlong actually fell asleep for real; after all, with a beauty in his arms, sleeping was just extra comfortable.

"Mm..."

Tan Xianglan finally pushed Chen Tianlong away, then crawled out of his arms and ran to the bathroom to wash up. She had a big task today—she had to go to the pedestrian street to inquire in the main hall about the whereabouts of those few Alchemy Furnaces.

She didn’t want an ordinary Alchemy Furnace, but a third-grade Alchemy Furnace capable of refining Great Rejuvenation Pills and Qi Gathering Pills. It was said that this kind of Alchemy Furnace was extremely rare, with most of them only available at auction houses in the cultivation world.

But things bought from those places were extremely expensive, and to buy anything you had to go through a lot of procedures. Their Tan Family weren’t people of the cultivation world; without connections, trying to buy a third-grade Alchemy Furnace from there was practically harder than ascending to heaven.

Recently, there were rumors online that a few had appeared around Guiyang, so she came over excitedly, planning to have some fun and relax a bit while she was at it.

When Tan Xianglan came out of the bathroom, Chen Tianlong was already fully dressed, only needing to wash his face and brush his teeth. Seeing her come out, he immediately smiled at her and said, "Good morning, wife Xianglan!"

"Oh, morning."

Tan Xianglan didn’t want to scold him anymore. If she said something, Shen Tian would just say she was going back on her word again. So if he wanted to call her that, let him. Anyway, after today they’d go their separate ways. She didn’t believe Shen Tian would really dare go to her family to "ask for the girl."

Chen Tianlong smiled faintly and walked into the bathroom. Ten minutes later he came out. The two of them each carried a backpack and walked out of the hotel.

"Hey, where are you going?" Seeing that Chen Tianlong hadn’t said a word, Tan Xianglan felt something was a bit off.

"Uh, didn’t I tell you yesterday? I’m going to the antique trading estate to see if there are any Energy Stones with one hundred percent purity. What about you, where are you going?" After a night of being together, Chen Tianlong felt that this Tan Xianglan was very different from the Tan Family Patriarch, not like a bad person.

"Huh? Antique trading estate? Is that a place with lots of antiques and all sorts of weird and wonderful things?" Hearing him say that, Tan Xianglan’s eyes suddenly lit up. She actually wasn’t aiming for some old street; she was going to buy an Alchemy Furnace.

Now hearing Shen Tian put it like that, it seemed that place was even more likely to have Alchemy Furnaces for sale.

"Yeah. And you?" Chen Tianlong saw the way she asked and figured she probably wanted to go too.

"I’m going to the antique trading estate as well." Tan Xianglan said blandly. She didn’t know the way, and anyway, since Shen Tian was her boyfriend now, accompanying his girlfriend was only right and proper.

"Uh, I don’t want to bring you along. It’s troublesome." Chen Tianlong just tossed out that line.

"You... say that again."

After hearing what Chen Tianlong said, Tan Xianglan almost exploded with anger. But then she thought for a moment and said, "Hmph, so you’re the one backing out, huh? Yesterday you insisted I be your girlfriend, and now that I’m your girlfriend, and you’ve... seen everything, you want to weasel out of it?"

"Alright, I’ll take you."

Chen Tianlong didn’t want to keep arguing with her; if they continued, it would just drag on endlessly. He really hadn’t expected that what he thought was a bargain would turn out like this—having such a girlfriend was even more trouble. Not only could he not touch her, he also had to act as her tour guide.

"Hmph, you know what’s good for you."

With that, Tan Xianglan handed her backpack to Chen Tianlong and said, "As a boyfriend, shouldn’t you do the things a boyfriend’s supposed to do?"

Chen Tianlong was speechless, but since she’d already put it that way, he could only take the backpack and carry it on his front. The two of them hailed a taxi and in a flash arrived at the antique trading estate.

At first, when they got out of the car, they thought they’d gone to the wrong place. Not far ahead, there was a manor that looked like a mountain villa, with the big characters "Antique Trading Estate" written on it.

However, Chen Tianlong was a bit puzzled. Was this place really that desolate? Why wasn’t there a single person around? Still, since they were already here, they had to go check it out.
