Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Is that what the senior mentioned_1

It was that same man who had been competing with him on the bids just moments ago, Shen Letian gritted his teeth as he raised his sign!

"Sold! Congratulations to gentleman number 18!" the auctioneer said with a beaming smile.

The somewhat portly, middle-aged stranger sauntered over to Shen Letian, beauty on his arm, "Young man, there’s an old Chinese saying, ’Exhaustion after the first effort, decline after the second, and depletion after the third...’"

After removing his sunglasses, revealing a shrewd face, he uttered every word of that phrase, "When he is exhausted, I am full!"

Shen Letian was almost driven to explosion by anger! How detestable this old man was!

However, on the surface, Shen Letian maintained his composure, pretending to be modest, "You’re absolutely right, senior!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than black-clothed men suddenly appeared surrounding the auction hall, all pointing at the strange man.

Those who hadn’t managed to leave the venue were stunned by this scene, their gazes turning to the man who had just won Illusion, now with guns pointed at him.

Soon someone recognized him, "He... he’s Huo Yandong!"

"Brother Dong?"

"Wasn’t there a rumor that he had died?"

"No, they said he went abroad!"

"Why would Shen Letian be dealing with such a figure? Just for the Illusion? It shouldn’t be of any use to him, right?"

...

...

"Heh, to think that after all this time, there are still people who recognize me!" Huo Yandong said, unfazed as he held the woman by his side, who trembled slightly facing so many guns.

Shen Letian scoffed with a mocking tone, "The Poison Lion of the underworld, who dabbled in drugs, arms, and women, how could one not recognize!"

Huo Yandong glanced at the people surrounding him and spoke with disdain, "Youth is arrogant! I didn’t expect you’d dare to set up an ambush here!"

"Your compliment is too kind! You’re also quite calm under such circumstances! Must be waiting for your Hidden Guard to rescue you? Tsk tsk, what a pity..."

As Shen Letian spoke leisurely, several men were dragged out and thrown in front of Huo Yandong.

At this moment, Huo Yandong’s expression finally lost its composure. The woman in his arms screamed, pushing him away and pleading frantically, "I’m innocent! I have nothing to do with him!"

"Useless thing!" With that, Huo Yandong pulled out a gun to aim at the woman, but before he could fire, someone else shot his arm first.

"You... you are..." Huo Yandong clutched his arm, looking at the person who fired the shot, his expression shifting to surprise.

Shen Letian approached the newcomer, grinning, "Boss, you’re here. Actually, I could’ve handled it myself!"

Sheng Yu quickly followed suit, "This man, the boss must handle personally!"

"You’re... CEO Gu Hangshen of Gu Corporation? I remember we had no disputes, did we?" Huo Yandong asked, his expression a mix of confusion and wariness at the grim-looking man before him.

"Boss, you have a call." Sheng Yu handed the ringing phone to Gu Hangshen.

As soon as Gu Hangshen pressed the answer button, Lu Dong’s roar could be heard, "Gu Hangshen! What are you doing? Wasn’t everything already arranged? Why did you act alone!"

Before Lu Dong could finish, Gu Hangshen had already hung up.

Gu Hangshen looked at Huo Yandong, "It seems you really have gotten old. I’ve been investigating you for so many years, yet you don’t even know I exist!"

Huo Yandong’s brow furrowed slightly, "Even if I have to die, I want to die with a clear understanding. When I was committing crimes, you were probably still crawling on the ground. Dare I ask where I have offended you?"
