Chapter 187: They Have It, I Don't

Outside the auction, Duan Xiuqi pulled his cap down and walked back, his expression revealing impatience.

"Didn't we agree that I would wait for you outside? Why are you still lingering in here?"

Tong Yunrou was startled and pulled Tong Qingyan, smiling at Duan Xiuqi, "It's nothing, nothing. Let's go."

Duan Xiuqi, listening to the discussion around him, stopped, "They are talking about... Bai Chuwei?"

They were discussing the adopted daughter of the Bai Family.

Tong Yunrou cursed her bad luck inwardly and gave her niece a meaningful glance.

Tong Qingyan hurriedly explained, "Third Master, it was Bai Chuwei who bid on the lot from Room 03, but it seems she can't afford to pay and was taken away. My aunt and I wanted to lend her the money, but she refused."

The owner of this auction, Li Sheng, was someone Duan Xiuqi was familiar with. An eighteen-year-old girl like Bai Chuwei going to the third floor to meet the boss was like a lamb entering the tiger's den!
