Chapter 1 Betrayal
January 23, 2025 China
City S, eight o'clock in the evening, Huihuang Auction House.
The splendid hall was full of people, and the well-dressed men and women were all staring at the auction table with fiery eyes.
The glowing green eyes looked like a hungry wolf that had been hungry for eight hundred years and suddenly saw a piece of meat and wanted to devour it in one bite.
In the private room on the second floor, Leng Wuyou stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the goblet in his hand swinging casually, and the bright red liquid inside flowed like blood with the woman's movements.
"Sister Leng, do you think this thing with the ability to travel through time and space is real or fake?" Mengzi, who was sitting on the sofa, touched his head, holding an illustration of the auction items in his hand, looking at the ordinary incompetent person on the illustration.
In ordinary rings, full of thoughts.
Leng Wuyou looked calmly at the hall outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and his tone did not waver at all, "Now is it necessary to distinguish between true and false?"
Mengzi was silent and followed Leng Wuxin's gaze. In his eyes were people's faces that were either excited, expectant or greedy. There was really no need to separate them, Mengzi thought.
eight thirty
The lights in the hall suddenly dimmed, and a beam of light shone on the sales table. To be precise, it hit an antique wooden box on the auction table.
Auctioneer Jayne also appeared on the auction stage.
The hall was quiet at this moment, and everyone's eyes were focused on the wooden box.
Auctioneer Jayne coughed slightly, and his voice spread throughout the hall through the microphone.
"Ahem, good evening, ladies and gentlemen! Welcome everyone to the Brilliant Auction House. I believe you all already know the items we are going to auction today, so please let us take a look at the items this time." Enter Jayne.
Take a step forward and reach out to open the wooden box.
A gray ring is lying quietly in the box. In the middle of the ring is a gray gemstone. The gemstone has no luster, like dust that has lost its energy and is like a treasure.
Leng Wuyou looked at it intently, with a sure win in his eyes.
The atmosphere at the scene became heated, like a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time and seemed to be about to erupt in the next moment.
The corners of Leng Wuyou's lips curved, but there was no wave in his eyes.
"Do it." A faint voice came out of her mouth and reached the headset.
There was a response from the other side, "Yes."
At this time, Mengzi also left quietly.
The atmosphere in the hall was exciting and hot. At this moment, the lights in the hall suddenly flashed a few times.
"Zi Zi"
The next moment the lights suddenly went out, and the hall suddenly fell into darkness.
In the darkness, no one noticed a figure approaching the auction table quickly like a ghost. When he saw the contents of the box, Leng Wuyou's eyes flashed, and he turned his palm, and a ring that was exactly the same as the one in the box suddenly appeared in the palm of Leng Wuyou's hand.
The two rings are instantly swapped with a slight movement of your fingertips.
"Got it." After getting the things, Leng Wuyou took advantage of the chaos and left quickly.
"Mengzi, mission accomplished, retreat."
"Yes, Sister Leng."
After leaving the auction house, a black Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of Leng Wuyou. Leng Wuyou opened the door and got in, and the car drove away instantly.
"Why are you here?" Leng Wuyou frowned slightly as he looked at the woman driving.
Mei Ran rolled her eyes, "Am I worried about you?"
Leng Wuyou stopped talking. He always felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
Mei Ran, who was driving in front, looked through the rearview mirror and saw Leng Wuyou sleeping in the back seat. Shadows flashed across her eyes, and her originally clear eyes suddenly turned cloudy, and a strange curve appeared on her lips.
Leng Wuyou opened his eyes suddenly, and with a sharp flash in his eyes, he directly met Mei Ran's sinister gaze. The weakness of his body and the dizziness of his mind made Leng Wuyou truly realize that she had been tricked.
And the person who attacked her turned out to be Mei Ran.
At first she thought the ring was poisonous, but when she saw Mei Ran's appearance as if she had changed into a different person, Leng Wuyou's heart instantly sank.
"Why?" Leng Wuyou asked.
In her heart, she always regarded her as her sister. She didn't understand why Mei Ran did this. Maybe she understood that Leng Wuyou was calm, so calm that it was terrifying.
At this moment, Meira had parked the car in a deserted suburb. She turned around and looked at Leng Wuyou with an innocent face, "What is Sister Leng talking about?"
"Mei Ran!" Leng Wuyou looked sharply, murderous intent emerging.
Feeling the murderous intent that was so strong that it was real, Mei Ran's body trembled instinctively.
Damn, it's like this again. Every time she faces her, she can't help but feel scared. Mei Ran can't pretend anymore and looks at Leng Wuyou with an ugly face.
"Why? Haha, Leng Wuyou, do you know how painful my life is every day? Why can I only live in your shadow? Every time I see your superiority, I want to scratch your face and tear your
You are so proud and trampled under your feet. Why should everyone see you first, but I am just your foil? Even Konoha is like this. I have liked him for more than ten years, but he doesn't even look at me. Why?
What?" Mei Ran's eyes were full of madness, and jealousy was devouring her sanity.
"Leng Wuyou, I hate you. I wish you would die right away. I have been looking forward to today for more than ten years. Leng Wuyou, go to hell!" Meili's eyes were red, and the gun in her hand was pointed at Leng Wuyou's eyebrows.
"Bang" a bullet was shot from the muzzle of the gun. Leng Wuyou turned to the side and the bullet hit the car seat.
"Haha" a sneer suddenly sounded, and Leng Wuyou's voice came from the back seat, "If you want me to die, you must have the consciousness to die."
"What?" Mei Ran's heart was beating wildly, and her anxiety quickly enveloped her. She wanted to escape but it was too late.
"Boom" a fire shot into the sky, a huge explosion sounded in the silent night, and the aftermath of the explosion swallowed up everything around it.
