Crashing the Auction

Her words were met with silence but she didn't pay mind to it. She knew that she wasn't the main attraction after all. Nevertheless, she continued to talk. 

"Considering that this will be our fifth parade and the biggest one as of yet, it is only suitable that the auction will have items of a similar magnitude! With that said, let us begin!"

She gazed all around her, looking at those in the upper levels as well. As her eyes traveled further to the highest level where it wasn't as crowded, she noticed a white-clothed figure. She looked for just a moment before turning away and leaving as the host of the auction took her place. 

"That must've been Qing Ji..." she thought to herself, "Only someone like her would wear something like that though... she seems a bit familiar."

Bai Meng couldn't quite shake off this feeling of hers. Despite not having a good view, she couldn't help but feel like she's seen her before.
