17 The Bidding Starts

Miranda worked hard in the study room.

On the other hand, Clarence did not sleep throughout the night. He sat on the couch in the living hall. His mind responded to the contents of Thirteen Hell's Gate Acupuncture and 720 Anatomy Acupoints.

Clarence did not feel sleepy throughout the night.

Instead, he was very energized early the next morning. 

Squeak!

Just then, Miranda walked out of the study room. She looked a bit haggard.

She held a bidding proposal which she had rushed out overnight in her hand.

"Dear, take a rest first. I'll make you breakfast," said Clarence as he walked over to her.

"Are we still eating breakfast, huh?! The bidding starts at nine o'clock. It's already half-past seven now. Isn't it too late to have breakfast now?!" Miranda cast a cold glance at Clarence. Then, she entered the washroom and washed up.

After an hour, Clarence drove and reached the bidding site with Miranda.
