Chapter 169 Hao Jian comes to obstruct
In the evening, Gu Neisi came back after finishing his work and said to Ian as if to take credit: "Haha, Boss, 60 billion, not bad!"
Ian said with satisfaction, "Yes, it's good. It's already very good to get this price in the first auction without the customer knowing. I said that Lao Gu is a business genius!"
"Speaking of geniuses, I think of Situ Wan'er. She is a true business genius. It's so comfortable to work with her!"
Ian suddenly realized. No wonder Old Gu no longer looked as greedy as he did when he first saw Selina. "Oh! Old Gu, are you interested in Shangguan Wan'er?"
Gu Neisi's thoughts were seen through, and he said embarrassedly:
"No...no, I just admire you."
"Haha, you still admire her? With your ability, it's almost like others admire you. Okay, brothers all support you to win her over. You two are a perfect match. You two should quickly join forces and become a perfect couple!"
"Really?"
"Nonsense, do I need to flatter you? Oh, by the way, help me find a gift. I have to attend her birthday party in three days, and I can't go empty-handed!"
Gu Ness was surprised and asked: "Does this mean that you two have known each other for a long time?"
Selina covered her mouth and laughed: "Of course, otherwise why would my brother recommend you to cooperate with the Situ family?"
"That won't do. I'll definitely give you the best. If I prepare something inferior to mine, it won't do. It won't do if it's the same as mine. Forget it. You better figure it out on your own!"
Also, our Tianlong Chamber of Commerce will definitely be well-known in the cities around Huanglong City in a month. If we make a grand opening, I believe more people will come to us for all-round cooperation. What do you think?"
"Okay, let's set it after the auction next month! Make it bigger and raise the threshold. Next time, there will be sixth-level barrier-breaking pills and seventh-level soul-solidifying pills, and the quality and quantity will also increase.
The most important thing is to pay attention to your own safety.”
Gu Neis nodded, and his expression was a little heavy when he said this, "You really hit the nail on the head. There are a lot of people who come to visit me openly, and there are also people who come to spy on me secretly. It makes me feel like I'm being watched when I walk recently, and I'm nervous."
Ian smiled and took out a gold ring from his storage bracelet. "Here, wear this. When you are in danger of your life, it will automatically activate to help you resist a fatal attack from a strong person below the seventh level."
"Damn, where did this treasure come from?" He took the gold ring and put it on his hand.
Of course Ian couldn't say that he spent 50 million gold coins to buy it from the dean of St. Peter's Magic and Martial Arts Academy.
"I've given it to you, why are you asking? This thing can only be activated once a day. You have to be careful. See if there are other treasures on the market that can save your life and buy some for yourself."
Gu Ness complained with a bitter face:
"I finally understand. My head is on the line. I want a raise!"
"Go away, send the amount you want yourself, don't shout nonsense."
……
For three consecutive days, Ian practiced and sensed but still could not find the man's breath. Situ Wan'er's birthday party was in full swing. Just because Gu Neis did not help prepare gifts, Ian asked Serena to go back to Shuanglong Ridge...
People from all the big families in the city brought generous gifts to congratulate them. All the young and handsome men, married or not, stopped what they were doing and rushed over. Even the family members from the surrounding cities heard the news and wanted to attend.
They were not trying to curry favor with the city lord. In their eyes, the border city lord had no weight, and that was the truth. Moreover, the Situ family was a business family, and they got the title of city lord by sheer luck.
The banquet was held in the city lord's mansion. There was already a long line of guests at the door and the guards were checking the invitation letters. No one without an invitation letter was allowed to enter the mansion.
Ian and Selina had nothing to do so they came to the City Lord's Mansion early. Wan'er received the news and came out to receive them in person. Today, Wan'er was dressed even more beautifully and people couldn't take their eyes off her.
"My benefactor, you are here. By the way, why didn't the other three come?"
“Oh, they have something urgent to do and won’t be back for a while.
I am two years older than you. If you don't mind, Wan'er, call me big brother from now on. Don't always call me benefactor. I don't want others to know my identity!"
"Great, brother, you and Nana can sit in the front!"
"No, it's fine here, don't worry about us."
"No, I'll just sit here with you guys."
Ian was helpless. Wan'er was the protagonist today, so how could she sit here? There was no choice, so the two of them followed her to one of the tables at the front.
Situ Gaofei also came over and exchanged pleasantries with Ian before going to greet other people.
Just as I sat down, a voice said inappropriately:
"Where did you come from, kid? What qualifications do you have to sit next to Miss Wan'er?"
A young man who looked quite handsome walked over, and his shout attracted a lot of attention.
"Hao Jian, these are my friends. I invited them to sit here. Is there a problem?" Wan'er said with a frosty face and a little anger.
"Friend? I don't think so. This guy is wearing a mask. He is either not worthy of being seen or extremely ugly. Miss Wan'er, please don't be fooled!"
"Whether Big Brother is handsome or ugly, it doesn't affect his being able to sit here."
"That's right, Miss Wan'er, as the protagonist today, you have the freedom to do so. But as far as I know, there is no such person among Wan'er's friends. How did he become your big brother?"
"He is... Hum, what does this have to do with you?"
Hao Jian said shamelessly:
"It's not just about me, it's about all the young men in Huanglong City. Miss Wan'er is the goddess in our hearts. As long as you are unmarried, we have the right to pursue you, but not just anyone has this qualification."
Others echoed.
"you……"
Ian, who had been watching coldly, said nothing, but Selina could not stand it any longer, "Where did this little dog bark? Wan'er will not choose you if you are like this!"
Hao Jian crossed his arms and snorted coldly: "Don't worry about this. Please move away. This is not the place for you to sit."
Wan'er wanted to argue something, but Ian stood up. Hao Jian smiled and said, "Finally, you left."
He walked step by step to Hao Jian, and before everyone could see clearly, a scream of "Ah..." was heard, and Hao Jian was blown away.
He clapped his hands and cursed: "Fuck you!"
Everyone else was also stunned. This guy probably didn’t know who he was hitting!
He is a son of the Hao family's side branch, and the Hao family is much stronger than the Zhang family.
Wan'er had no pity for Hao Jian and said to Ian: "Brother, I'm sorry for spoiling your fun."
"It's okay. There are always some annoying flies everywhere."
