This man never stops tempting her, no matter the moment…

Just as Wu Yue entered to inquire about their departure time, he was met with a sight that nearly blinded him. What the heck! !!

What did he just witness?

Their Master Qin was actually squatting on the floor, helping Miss Nan put on her shoes!!!

Had he gone insane, or had the world gone mad!!!

Wu Yue couldn’t handle this sudden shock. Before he could let out a scream, he quickly stuffed his fist into his mouth.

A startled cry turned into a stifled sob.

Nan Yan caught a glimpse of his comical reaction and uncontrolled emotions. With a light chuckle, she managed to calm the situation down.

“All right,” Qin Lu said in a nonchalant tone after helping Nan Yan put on both shoes. He stood up, his gaze casually shifting toward Wu Yue.

Wu Yue immediately turned around, desperate for survival, and said, “Young

Master, I didn’t see anything.”

Retracting his gaze, Qin Lu looked at the girl and said gently, “I’ll wash my hands and then we’ll depart.”

“Okay,” Nan Yan replied, concealing her smile but with traces of amusement still lingering in her eyes.

Marlborough Auction House.

In just a few minutes, the auction was about to begin. The attendees for the auction had already arrived and were seated in their respective positions.

As per the rules of the auction, once the scheduled time arrived, the doors to the venue would be closed, and those who hadn’t arrived in time wouldn’t be allowed inside.

Furthermore, during the auction proceedings, no one inside the venue was permitted to leave. Only after the auction concluded would the attendees have the freedom to move around during the evening banquet.

Qin Lu and Nan Yan arrived just in time, less than a minute before the venue’s doors were due to close. Two guards stationed at the entrance of the auction venue intercepted them. “I’m sorry, the venue’s doors are about to close, and those who haven’t entered are not allowed inside.”

Wu Yue spoke up, “About to close means it’s not closed yet. Entering here would take less than five seconds. Are you stopping us a bit too early?”

One guard pointed at the clock and said, “It’s already time.”

The other guard continued, “Please leave.”

Nan Yan clicked her tongue in disapproval.

The prestigious Mr. Qin, attending an auction, was actually stopped from entering, and he didn’t even get inside. If this were to get out, would it become a source of amusement for others?

Qin Lu glanced down at a certain little troublemaker and calmly said, “Show them the invitation.”

Wu Yue produced the invitation and handed it to the guards. The moment they saw Wu Yue presenting the invitation, their expressions did a complete 180-degree turn, becoming much more respectful.

This invitation was different from ordinary ones; it was a platinum card reserved exclusively for the most distinguished guests. There could be no more than five of these invitations.

The guards returned the invitation to Wu Yue and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Qin, you are an esteemed guest of the auction, and you are not bound by time constraints. Please, come in!”

With this slight delay, the venue’s doors had already closed. The guards reopened the doors, and the two of them, under the curious gazes of everyone in the auction house, made their way to the front row.

Seated in the front row were the nobles and dignitaries who symbolized power and influence, and one by one, they took the initiative to greet Qin Lu.

Qin Lu nodded in acknowledgment and responded. Then, the two of them took seats right in the middle for the best visual effect.

Nan Yan seemed lost in thought. Boss Qin’s identity was far from simple.

Among the people in the front row, there were actually a few she recognized some well-known wealthy figures from the M country. She couldn’t believe she’d run into them here. However, they hadn’t recognized her.

Except for Marcus and He Zhizhou, there was no one else in this world who knew her true identity.

Nan Yan concealed her emotions, leaving only a trace of cold determination. Sooner or later, she would reclaim what rightfully belonged to her. Those scum who had hurt her and her family would pay the most painful price.

“What are you thinking, Yan Yan?” Qin Lu lightly squeezed her hand, and his deep, pleasing voice sounded in her ear.

“Nothing,” Nan Yan replied, concealing the icy depths in her eyes. She casually glanced at their hands still intertwined.

Then she raised an eyebrow and added, “Big brother, I won’t run away. You don’t need to keep holding my hand like this.”

“Okay,” Qin Lu heard the unspoken message and chuckled softly. Instead of releasing her hand, he became even more domineering, interlocking his fingers with hers.

His ink-black eyes contained a smile as he looked at her. “But, big brother just wants to hold your hand.”

Nan Yan sighed inwardly. She felt like this man was becoming more audacious towards her by the day.

“Do you want some candy?” Qin Lu asked.

Nan Yan gave him a faint glance and licked her lips, saying, “Yes.”

Qin Lu retrieved a lollipop from his suit pocket, unwrapped it with one hand, and then brought it to her lips.

Nan Yan was a bit skeptical. Did Qin Lu see her as a child or as a woman? On one hand, he doted on her like a daughter, and on the other hand, he relentlessly teased her in a wild manner.

Was he possibly bipolar?

Hmm.

That was a good question.

Sucking on the lollipop, Nan Yan looked at their intertwined hands, then took out her phone with a calm expression and typed a message.

On the auction stage, the auctioneer delivered a brief opening statement and quickly transitioned into the auction proceedings. Nan Yan was somewhat curious about the items up for auction and casually picked up the catalog placed on their table.

As she was engrossed in reading, a bidding card was placed on the catalog she was looking at.

“If you like something later, just bid for it. Big brother doesn’t have anything else but money,” Qin Lu said, exuding a domineering CEO vibe.

Nan Yan didn’t hold back either. “Okay.”

Many of the surrounding businessmen were looking for an opportunity to establish connections with Qin Lu. However, Qin Lu’s attention was fixed on the woman he brought with him throughout, and he didn’t seem to have any intention of acknowledging them.

This led to speculations about Qin Lu and Nan Yan’s relationship. They all knew Boss Qin didn’t pursue women, but what was this in front of them now? It seemed it wasn’t that Boss Qin wasn’t interested in women; it was that he hadn’t encountered someone who caught his eye before.

“Even heroes can’t resist a beauty, ” they thought as they gazed at the enchanting young woman by Qin Lu’s side. She was simply unparalleled in the mortal world.

Not to mention Boss Qin, even they couldn’t help but feel their hearts flutter when they glanced at her.

If they wanted to get close to Boss Qin today, perhaps this woman would be their breakthrough.

So, when there were jewelry items suitable for women in the auction, they became the objects of competition for the wealthy businessmen in the front row.

When the first ruby brooch was won by a wealthy businessman, he stood up with a smile on his face and said, “This auction item is very suitable for the beautiful young lady beside Mr. Qin. I would like to give it to her.”
