Chapter 85 - 85 Auction
85 Auction
Kang Ce smiled stiffly and followed Jian Xing’er out.
Jian Xing’er took out her phone and called a taxi to go to the auction.
The chauffeur seemed to have something urgent to attend to and drove very quickly. He didn’t even slow down when he turned the corner. Jian Xing’er couldn’t help but lean towards Kang Ce.
Jian Xing’er didn’t lean over on purpose.
“Um…”
Kang Ce immediately moved towards the car door.
Jian Xing’er was stunned. Was she that scary?
Jian Xing’er asked, “Are you alright?”
Kang Ce said in a panic, “It’s… it’s alright…”
Kang Ce looked nervous and hesitant.
After thinking for a moment, Kang Ce seemed to have made a decision and said, “After the auction, we’ll go to the hotel. The room is ready.”
With that, Kang Ce looked helpless and self-deprecating.
Kang Ce was very unwilling, but the Deputy Director kept forcing him. For the sake of his job, Kang Ce could only do this.
Jian Xing’er looked at Kang Ce in surprise and said, “What did you say?”
Kang Ce approached Jian Xing’er and said, “I don’t regret it…”
Jian Xing’er immediately pushed Kang Ce away and said, “What are you doing?”
Kang Ce said helplessly, “I don’t want to do this either, but if I don’t, I won’t be able to keep my job.”
Jian Xing’er asked in confusion, “What? What’s going on?”
Kang Ce hesitated for a moment before telling her everything.
Jian Xing’er immediately understood that the Deputy Director had used Kang Ce’s job to threaten Kang Ce into having sex with Jian Xing’er and tried to use this method to keep Jian Xing’er in the hospital forever.
Jian Xing’er said coldly, “I didn’t expect the Deputy Director to be so despicable.”
Kang Ce didn’t hide anything anymore and simply revealed everything. “Not only that, but the Deputy Director also asked me to record it and said that it would be useful in the future.”
Jian Xing’er was originally just a little angry, but when she heard Kang Ce’s words, she became even angrier and her gaze became sharp.
This Deputy Director was really shameless. He even wanted to scheme against Jian Xing’er in such a manner.
After Jian Xing’er thought about it for a long time, she decided to deal with the Deputy Director after everything was settled.
She had only one goal now, and that was to find the female assassin.
Before she found the female assassin, nothing could go wrong.
Jian Xing’er glanced at Kang Ce and said, “When we’re done, you can go home. Tomorrow, tell the Deputy Director that we’ve been there.”
Seeing Kang Ce’s helpless look, Jian Xing’er planned to help him once.
Kang Ce said gratefully, “Thank you, Doctor Li.”
Jian Xing’er stopped talking and closed her eyes.
Jian Xing’er didn’t want such a thing to happen ever again.
She came to this hospital just to find the female assassin.
She couldn’t arouse attention over other things, or something unexpected might happen.
Since the female assassin was the only clue that could help her find the organization’s nest, Jian Xing’er didn’t dare to be careless.
Not long after, they arrived at the auction venue.
Jian Xing’er brought Kang Ce into the auction.
Then, Jian Xing’er found a corner seat and sat down.
The participants entered the venue one after another.
Those who could attend were all rich and noble. Everyone was dressed to the nines, so one could tell at a glance that they were from the upper class.
A few noblewomen nearby kept chatting.
A rich lady in a red evening gown said, “The perfume I bid on yesterday was amazing.”
A rich lady beside her said, “Isn’t it just perfume? How amazing can it be?”
The lady in the red dress said, “It’s really amazing. I only sprayed a little, but I slept very soundly at night. In the past few years, I’ve been suffering from insomnia and have invited many doctors, but I’ve never recovered. However, this perfume cured my insomnia. When I woke up in the morning, I felt very refreshed.”
Hearing this, the other noblewomen were very shocked.
Some people who heard this also surrounded her.
Everyone started discussing this perfume.
“Tianmei Corporation’s perfume is really magical. When I went back yesterday, I accidentally sprayed it on my face. When I woke up this morning, I realized that my freckles had disappeared.”
“That’s right. It’s really magical. I’ve always had asthma and it often flares up. After I used the perfume yesterday, I was fine for the entire night. When I went to the hospital in the morning, the doctor said that my asthma had recovered a little.”
“That’s nothing. I’m anorexic, but after I used perfume, I ate three bowls of rice in the morning. Other than magical, I don’t know how else to describe it.”
Almost everyone in the venue was discussing Tianmei Corporation’s perfume.
