Chapter 88: Chapter 88 Are You Provoking Me?
"What are you trying to do?"
Watching the experts from the Premium Auction House approach them menacingly, Huang Junxiang looked tense.
Wang Song and Liu Fei were also pushed to the brink of panic.
A middle-aged man in a suit spoke up, "President Liu has given the order to drag these three trash out and then beat them up mercilessly!"
Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Huang Junxiang’s face dramatically changed. As the experts moved closer to them, he quickly said, "My aunt is Ouyang Ying, the Chen Family’s Patriarch’s wife, and my cousin is Chen Kun, do you dare to touch me and see what happens?"
"Bang!"
His words had barely fallen when a black rubber club brutally struck his head. His eyes rolled back, and he passed out on the spot.
Wang Song and Liu Fei were already trembling with fear, and were dragged out by a few burly men.
On the second floor, in the VIP room.
Xiao Qing looked down at the lobby on the first floor, her expression as dark as could be. She hadn’t expected that Zhu Yeqing, the new president of the Black Dragon Commerce Association, would know Qin Chuan, and even called Qin Chuan her friend.
Chen Kun’s expression was equally ugly. Even if Huang Junxiang were beaten to death, he wouldn’t bat an eyelid, but Qin Chuan’s network of contacts had taken him by surprise.
The Jiangcheng City Song Family, the East Sea National Medical Hall, he considered neither of them significant.
But as for the Black Dragon Commerce Association, not just him, even his father wouldn’t dare to offend them easily.
Suddenly, Chen Kun turned to Xiao Qing beside him and asked, "Aunt Xiao, what do you think of this young man?"
Xiao Qing’s heart was filled with an unprecedented worry, but on the surface, she maintained a disdainful demeanor and coldly said, "He just had a stroke of luck to know Zhu Yeqing, that’s all."
"In my opinion, the Black Dragon Commerce Association and Premium Auction have not seen eye to eye for a long time. Zhu Yeqing pretending to be so familiar with that guy is just to disgust Premium Auction."
"Should that fellow really run into trouble, Zhu Yeqing would definitely not help him."
"Young Master Chen, you’re not actually interested in this boy, are you?"
Chen Kun chuckled disdainfully, "A mere nobody, even if he really is friends with Zhu Yeqing, trash remains trash, no matter if it’s placed in a high-grade bin, it cannot change the fact that it is trash."
Just then, a series of footsteps suddenly arose, and a line of people could be seen walking up.
Ye Qingwan and Qin Chuan were at the front, with siblings Song Jie and Song Yan, followed by Dongfang Yiren, behind them.
Chen Kun’s lips curled into a slight arc, then he stepped out of his VIP room.
"I’ve long heard of President Ye’s great reputation. Seeing you today, you really live up to your name!"
Chen Kun walked forward with a smile, extending a hand towards Ye Qingwan and said with a smile, "President Ye, hello, my name is Chen Kun, from the Chen Family of the East Sea, my father is Chen Baiqiang!"
Xiao Qing also quickly came forward, with a flattering smile she said, "President Ye, hello, I’m Xiao Qing from the Xiao Family, and Chen Kun is my son-in-law."
A glint of coldness flashed in Chen Kun’s eyes; this old woman dared to use my influence to show off in front of Zhu Yeqing.
Ye Qingwan raised an eyebrow and said coldly, "Do I know you?"
With that, the smiles on Chen Kun’s and Xiao Qing’s faces froze.
As they watched the two embarrassed, Song Jie and the Song siblings struggled to hold back their laughter.
"Get lost!"
Ye Qingwan suddenly shouted.
Chen Kun forcibly suppressed the fury in his heart, but he still said, "President Ye, my father has always wanted to bring me to visit you, it’s just..."
Before Chen Kun could finish his sentence, Ye Qingwan coldly cut him off, "I told you to get lost. Can’t you understand human speech?"
A powerful aura emanated from her.
At this moment, Xiao Qing did not dare to even breathe heavily, her legs somewhat weak.
Chen Kun was inwardly shocked at the strength of the pressure, which reminded him of the aura he had only felt around his grandfather.
It had nothing to do with the Martial Path Realm, but with the demeanor of those who had long held positions of power.
Wasn’t it said that Ye Qingwan only married the previous head of the Black Dragon Commerce Association for a week before seizing power through regicide?
How could she possess such a formidable air of authority?
Xiao Qing cautiously tugged at the hem of Chen Kun’s clothes, and only then did he come back to his senses and hastily stepped aside to let them pass.
Without glancing at him once, Ye Qingwan led Qin Chuan and the others to the Black Dragon Commerce Association’s VIP room.
Only after they left did Xiao Qing dare to take deep breaths again, her face turning as pale as death, and she said with unsettled horror, "That woman is simply too terrifying."
Chen Kun clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into his palms, drawing blood without him seeming to feel the pain.
His face was twisted with rage.
As the future Patriarch of the Chen Family, Young Master Chen, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?
"Zhu Yeqing!"
Chen Kun gritted his teeth and said, "One day, I will make you beg for mercy under me!"
Xiao Qing was startled, and just as she was about to say something, upon seeing Chen Kun’s twisted face, she chose to keep silent.
Inside the VIP room of the Black Dragon Commerce Association!
Ye Qingwan said respectfully, "Mr. Qin, if there’s anything you need, just let me know, and I’ll bid on it for you!"
Qin Chuan shook his head slightly, "I appreciate your kindness, President Ye, and I will ask for your help if needed."
Ye Qingwan nodded, "Okay!"
Song Jie and Song Yan exchanged glances, both displaying a look of surprise in their eyes.
Who would have thought that Zhu Yeqing, a name that shook East Sea Province, would be so polite to Qin Chuan?
"Good evening, everyone. I am Manager Liu, the person in charge of the East Sea Premium Auction House. Welcome to our event. I declare that the auction now begins!"
Just then, Manager Liu stepped up to the auction platform and announced the start of the auction.
An auctioneer dressed in a beige floral cheongsam walked up to the auctioneer’s position, and the auction officially started.
"The first item for today is a Mutton Fat Jade Pendant that was recently unearthed. After examination by our Premium Auction House’s chief auctioneer, this pendant has been determined to be an accessory of Qin Shihuang..."
The auctioneer was still explaining when Qin Chuan became visibly excited, staring intently at the jade pendant within the glass showcase.
Despite the distance, he could still feel a rich aura emanating from the pendant.
That was not the important part, though. What mattered was that this aura felt incredibly familiar to him, almost déjà vu.
"It’s the aura of the Kunlun Divine Prison!"
Qin Chuan suddenly snapped to attention, realizing that the aura coming from the jade pendant was exactly the same as that of the Kunlun Divine Prison!
This meant that the jade pendant may very well have come from the Kunlun Divine Prison.
In his memory, the Kunlun Divine Prison was a place where one could enter but never leave. So why were items from the Kunlun Divine Prison appearing here?
Could it be that people from the Kunlun Divine Prison were now able to leave?
Impossible!
He quickly dismissed this speculation. In his memories, due to certain reasons, the Kunlun Divine Prison heavily cultivated six-path powerhouses, so how could they possibly let those individuals leave so easily?
"The starting bid for this jade pendant is five million! Each bid must be at least five hundred thousand higher than the last. The bidding starts now!"
At that moment, the auctioneer had finished introducing the jade pendant and announced the start of the bidding.
"Six million!"
"Seven million!"
...
"Thirteen million!"
In just a few short seconds, the bidding price for the pendant soared continuously, with many people participating.
Clearly, those who truly understood the value of this pendant weren’t present; otherwise, the bidding would not have started at five million but fifty million, or even a hundred million.
After another two minutes, the bid for the jade pendant had risen to twenty-two million, with only the last two bidders remaining, one of whom was Chen Kun.
"Twenty-two million, once!"
"Twenty-two million, twice!"
"Is there no one else interested in bidding? This is a jade pendant of Qin Shihuang, with extremely high collection value. If there are no more bids, this pendant will be won by Young Master Chen."
"Twenty-two million..."
The auctioneer had already lifted the hammer and was about to bring it down when...
"Thirty million!"
Qin Chuan’s voice resounded throughout the entire venue.
Chen Kun’s expression immediately darkened, as he looked over at Qin Chuan’s compartment and said coldly, "Kid, are you provoking me?"
