Chapter 97: Chapter 95: Qin Qin, Do You Have Something to Auction? 3
Jiang Qingtian, upon hearing his mother speak in such a manner, couldn’t help but frown deeply, "Mom!"
Mo Qianhui glared fiercely at her own son, "What are you yelling for?! This is the Lin Family’s home, so you’d better behave yourself!" ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
This foolish son of hers, could he not see the expression on Lin Tianya’s face? If that Qin Qin ends up driving away her future daughter-in-law because of her, she definitely wouldn’t let that girl off the hook!
"Madam Jiang, rest assured, I, Qin Qin, would certainly not allow someone who I barely know to pay for me!" Qin Qin was unwilling to watch Jiang Qingtian argue with Mo Qianhui on her behalf, and besides, when had she ever asked Jiang Qingtian to pay for her? Madam Jiang was being rather presumptuous, as Qin Qin had no desire to be frozen by her icy glare.
Upon hearing that Qin Qin claimed to be unacquainted with Jiang Qingtian, Mo Yunchen, who had been in a good mood, curled his lips into a smile. Mo Tang, who had stood behind Mo Yunchen, sensed his Master’s good mood and couldn’t help but curiously glance towards Qin Qin. It puzzled him that a girl of above-average looks could receive special treatment from Master Mo, who wouldn’t spare a second glance even for the perfectly beautiful Miss Jing. He made a mental note to be more observant in the future.
If Mo Sheng knew that Master Mo was treating a delicate-looking girl—or rather, a young woman—differently, he wondered what Mo Sheng’s expression would be like! Certainly, more shocked than he was!
Jiang Qingtian’s face turned pale when he heard Qin Qin claim they were unfamiliar, as he stared at her with a pained expression.
Mo Qianhui raised a smile of satisfaction, "Miss Qin is indeed an admirable girl!"
She knew her place!
Mo Yunchen walked towards where Qin Qin was, his phoenix eyes intently staring at her, shorter than he by a head’s height, "Miss Qin, it seems you fancy these Buddha Beads! To be honest, I’m not set on having them either!"
Qin Qin’s beautiful eyes darkened; she knew that there was no simple reason behind this man’s words. Seeing the fox-like look in his eyes, she got so angry that her face turned dark, biting her teeth ferociously for the first time because of a man.
As expected, in the next moment, she heard Mo Yunchen whisper to her in a voice only the two of them could hear, "If Miss Qin accompanies me for a day, I could give up these Buddha Beads."
Qin Qin fiercely glared at Mo Yunchen with her watery eyes.
Accompany your sister!
Mo Yunchen looked at her glaring at him, finding her expression so cute that he felt an urge to pinch her cheeks!
"Master Mo, is it? The Buddha Beads suit you very well! I won’t compete with an elder for them," Qin Qin said, taking a seat in her own spot and emanating an aura that warned others to stay away.
Jiang Qingtian frowned deeply, feeling that his uncle’s behavior was odd today; he normally wouldn’t speak to any woman, yet today he had...
No, it was impossible for his uncle to be interested in Qin Qin; it must be because of him!
Upon thinking this, Jiang Qingtian wished nothing more than to take Qin Qin away immediately; he feared that she might become a sacrificial piece in the conflict between him and Mo Yunchen.
Uncle Mo Yunchen had long harbored dissatisfaction towards him, his mother, and his older uncle, Mo Qianlin, but had never shown it openly. He knew that if the line that lay indirectly between them ever broke, the surface peace would surely shatter—and that line was his maternal grandfather, Elder Master Mo!
He didn’t want Qin Qin to become a pawn between them. Fortunately, seeing that Qin Qin had absolutely no interest in his uncle provided him with some relief!
Mo Yunchen listened to Qin Qin’s indignant words and smiled once more. Behind him, Mo Tang was simply in disbelief. He had been worried for Miss Qin, as no one dared to be so presumptuous in front of Master Mo, yet this woman had not only done so but came out unscathed! And he noticed that Master Mo seemed quite pleased!
"Ahem, today is the charity dinner hosted by the Lin Family, and we would appreciate everyone’s understanding!" Elder Master Lin stepped forward to ease the somewhat awkward atmosphere, while Lin Hua at his side signaled to the beautiful auctioneer on stage, who, already invisible, nodded quickly and soothed the crowd with her sweet voice.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we congratulate Master Mo on winning the Buddha Beads and thank Master Mo for his contribution to charity!" The beautiful auctioneer lifted her sweet smile toward Mo Yunchen, who sat expressionless in his seat, seemingly uninterested in the Buddha Beads for which he had paid Ten Million.
"The final item up for auction is sent by Miss Zhiyue from the Jing Family. Miss Zhiyue had a last-minute affair and couldn’t be present, so she deeply apologizes and has sent a box of Life-Nourishing Pills instead! Valued at two million!"
A hostess came up from below the stage, holding a beautiful red box, which she carefully opened to reveal two rows of neatly arranged brown Medicinal Pills.
"My goodness, are those the Life-Nourishing Pills from the Divine Doctor Sect?!"
"Got to bid, absolutely must bid!"
"This is mine, don’t fight me for it!"
The atmosphere, which had been somewhat lackluster among the rich and noble, suddenly became lively with the mention of Life-Nourishing Pills, as they eagerly discussed it.
On hearing the words "Life-Nourishing Pill," Qin Qin’s eyes narrowed, and she looked up at the stage, then stood up from her seat in shock!
Jiang Qingtian looked at Qin Qin beside him in confusion, "What’s wrong?! Are you also interested in Life-Nourishing Pills?"
Qin Qin sat down, her hands tightened at her sides, and a look of hatred flashed in her eyes.
Closing her eyes for a moment, Qin Qin opened them and looked at Jiang Qingtian, "Not very interested, I just think these Life-Nourishing Pills are a bit poor to be worth two million!"
Ten million for Life-Nourishing Pills that aren’t even as effective as hers? No wonder people in high society paid so much for a flawed product. If she sold her Medicinal Pills, wouldn’t they be worth tens of millions? But she wouldn’t go that far; thirty thousand for a Life-Nourishing Pill was about right, considering they weren’t Immortal Pills and couldn’t be that amazing!
She calmed her turbulent emotions and darkened her gaze, smiling slightly, "Who is this Miss Jing? Are these Life-Nourishing Pills made by her? And what is this Divine Doctor Sect all about?"
She had indeed heard about the Divine Doctor Sect a few times lately, and that haughty Divine Doctor Ouyang was from the so-called Divine Doctor Sect, right?
When Qin Qin asked him, Jiang Qingtian immediately replied, "Miss Jing is named Jing Zhimei, the daughter of the Jing Family, one of Jingdu City’s Four Great Noble Families. She is also a disciple of the Divine Doctor Sect’s master, skilled in medicine. Her Medicinal Pills are highly valued and sought after by many wealthy individuals. As for the Divine Doctor Sect, it’s a place where only those with exceptional medical skills can enter. It commands great influence and is held in high esteem by many in high society. In fact, I think your medical skills surpass those of the so-called Divine Doctor Sect, and I believe even Jing Zhimei is not as formidable as you!"
Qin Qin chuckled, pondering silently in her heart.
The Divine Doctor Sect couldn’t possibly be related to the Ghost Doctor Sect from a thousand years ago. After all, not just anyone could join the Ghost Doctor Sect back then, where each member was a formidable Ghost Doctor. Her own and her senior sister Qin Yuanshuang’s medical skills were the most formidable, but she exceeded even her senior sister, especially in Poison Arts. That’s what had led her senior sister to grow jealous and betray her in the end.
As for this Divine Doctor Sect, judging from that so-called Divine Doctor Ouyang, it couldn’t be that remarkable, could it? And the disciple of the master of this Divine Doctor Sect, Jing Zhimei, she couldn’t possibly be that person!
