My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 1297: Chapter 1296: Blockhead Lei Laowu

Not only is this person a friend of his son, but also a powerful expert. He had already heard about how badly injured Zhong Ruofeng was because of him. If this person got displeased and secretly targeted their manor, wouldn’t that be a big trouble?

"Fifteen million once, anyone else..."

This time Mr. Feng was not so happy. He also noticed a certain floating look in Words’ eyes, indicating that he didn’t want Chen Tianlong to spend this money. Even if he did bid successfully, it would just cost a little over a million, and asking for the full fifteen million from Chen Tianlong seemed unlikely.

"Fifteen million once, everyone, please pay attention, getting ready for the second call."

Words intentionally delayed for a moment, thinking maybe someone else might bid, so they could accept the money with less anxiety and hesitation, rather than just taking Chen Tianlong’s money.

Chen Tianlong remained calm, thinking that even if no one else bid, the Manor Master wouldn’t charge him the full amount, at most, it would be two million.

"Stupid Chen Tianlong, not listening to the wisdom of the elders. Now you’re facing the consequences, serves you right," Tan Xianglan angrily scolded, as if the lost money was hers.

"Hehe, may I ask, Miss Xianglan, how old are you?" Chen Tianlong couldn’t help but tease Tan Xianglan.

"You... you’re driving me mad. With that amount of money, I could buy a truckload of clothes and cosmetics, yet you buy a torn map," Tan Xianglan shot a glance at Chen Tianlong and said.

"Oh, does Miss Li really need more cosmetics? Alright, next time I see some on the street, I’ll buy you a set. You seem so pitiful," Chen Tianlong said with a grin.

"Hmph, if you dare to buy, I dare to take."

Tan Xianglan’s words made Chen Tianlong feel a bit strange. What did she mean by ’if I want to buy, she’d dare to take’? It sounded as if he liked buying things for her.

"Alright."

Chen Tianlong turned his head back and continued watching the stage.

"Fifteen million, going for the second time... anyone willing to offer a higher price, is there? If not, let’s settle it," Mr. Feng raised the hammer, ready to bring it down.

"Twenty million."

But just then, a voice suddenly rang out, making everyone present feel extremely surprised, and Words breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it’s not Chen Tianlong, everything could be handled better.

Everyone saw a tall, strong young man, around twenty-something, stand up in the crowd and shout.

This person was none other than Ren Kun from the Butterfly Assassin Group.

For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity with Chen Tianlong, and his intuition made him want to help him.

"Wow..."

The crowd buzzed again, obviously taken aback. Previously, no one had called for sixty thousand, yet at fifteen million, Ren Kun spoke up.

"Twenty million... the auction’s reached a new high, it’s a moment worth commemorating. Is there anyone offering a higher price? If not, twenty million going once, twenty million twice..."

"Twenty-five million."

Suddenly, Lei Laowu sprang up and shouted.

If Chen Tianlong had lost earlier, he wouldn’t have offered a sound, but a Cheng Yaojin had appeared halfway; if he didn’t bid now, the item would go to this young man, and Chen Tianlong wouldn’t have any loss. He couldn’t pass up this opportunity.

Just when Lei Laowu thought he was being cunning, he suddenly heard the decisive knock on the stage.

Lao Feng, who was standing nearby, covered his face, feeling utterly embarrassed to be associated with such a fool.

By the time Lei Laowu realized it, he knew he’d been tricked. Ren Kun had indeed helped Chen Tianlong, not just acting blindly, but showing a very shrewd mind.

He seemed to grasp Chen Tianlong’s intentions as well.

Previously, Chen Tianlong got into a bit of a gamble by not stopping at over a million, but since he had a trump card, he risked it again. Who would have thought that even in such a setting, someone would dare step up to help him.

Clearly, Lao Feng turned back to glance at Ren Kun and frowned, realizing this person wasn’t simple. The Butterfly Assassin Group was on Beisha Island in Japan and opposed to the Black Alliance.

Japan is divided into several islands, the most famous being Beisha Island, Zhongsha Island, and Black Alliance City.

Though not exactly opposed, the three factions - the Black Alliance, the Butterfly Assassin Group, and the Scorpio Gang - stood in tripartite rule. They didn’t support each other yet complemented each other, developing together.

If one side grew strong, the other would find a way to collaborate with the relatively weaker one to temporarily weaken the strongest side. The intertwining among the three gangs is that intricate. Thus, no one is truly a friend or an enemy.

As for the current state of the Black Alliance, Chen Tianlong hasn’t yet had the time to get involved.

"Congratulations to Lei Laowu for obtaining the Dong Race West Suburb Mineral Treasure Map. Please proceed with the transfer after the event to our finance department," Mr. Feng was quite satisfied with this outcome, making a hefty sum without the complication of accepting the money.

Lei Laowu was already stunned, although this twenty-five million wasn’t considered a lot for them, it was definitely not a little, and more importantly, it didn’t affect Chen Tianlong at all. Instead, he lost his money and was filled with anger.

Now, the money’s gone, his strength was also rendered useless by others; it was simply a disaster.

"Hmph, I’ve warned you not to show off, but you wouldn’t listen, admitting now that you were wrong?"

Lao Feng snorted coldly. He sincerely wondered if Lei Laowu was reincarnated from a pig, how could he be so dumb? Anyone could see Chen Tianlong was playing him, yet he’d been warned several times and continued, a self-inflicted misfortune.

This is what they call ’creating your own doom’.

"Alright, alright, it’s just twenty-five million, spent is spent."

As soon as Lei Laowu’s words fell, a ceremonial lady brought the already packaged Dong Race West Suburb Mineral Treasure Map over, placed it on his table, smiled, and then left.

Watching the lady’s swaying hips, Lei Laowu actually drooled, and now, everyone who had been watching this side saw his actions, shaking their head, feeling that this person’s character was indeed poor.

"Lei Laowu, what are you doing? If you want to look, call ten of them to look when you go back," Lao Feng felt utterly shameful, sitting with such a fool was embarrassing himself.

After all, as the saying goes, you become red by being close to cinnabar and black by being close to ink, now he was already covered in black ink.

"Ah? Oh, I wasn’t doing anything." Lei Laowu said as he sucked back his drool, almost making Lao Feng nearby throw up, but fortunately, there were many people around, so he held it in.
