Chapter 195: Chapter 195: The Rabbit is Going to Die

Driven by spite, Su Xiaoxi actually bid an outrageously high price of ten million, feeling incredibly regretful inside. But since the words were already out, she couldn’t just backtrack on her word and, somewhat sullenly, muttered, "I really let that guy off cheap, selling it for such a good price!"

In her vexation, she glanced over at Zhen Xiaosa’s spot and suddenly noticed that the man who had first started bidding against her was now cozily seated next to Zhen Xiaosa, chatting and laughing as if they had known each other for ages.

Upon closer inspection, wasn’t that man one of Zhen Xiaosa’s subordinates from yesterday? Except now he had changed his clothes and was wearing a hat, which had prevented Su Xiaoxi from recognizing him at first!

"Well, aren’t you bold, toying with this miss like that."

Su Xiaoxi was furious and turned to Tang Ming, saying, "Tang Ming, I’m being bullied here, aren’t you going to do something about it?"

"Who’s bullying you?"

Tang Ming asked lazily.

Pointing towards Zhen Xiaosa’s location, Su Xiaoxi said angrily, "Look, it’s that bad guy. He had his subordinate deliberately spar with me, driving the price of the bunny up to ten million. Isn’t that blatantly bullying me?"

Once Tang Ming understood, he said, "Then just don’t buy it, and it’s settled."

"How can I not buy it? I’ve already won the auction!"

Desperate, Su Xiaoxi pressed on, "I’m at a huge loss this time, won’t you stand up for me?"

"Don’t worry, there’s no loss!"

Tang Ming replied nonchalantly after listening.

Su Xiaoxi was momentarily incredulous and frowned, "Are you serious?"

"Why would I lie to you, just follow my lead in a bit," Tang Ming said with a self-assured smile.

The auction continued, however, because the items offered at this auction were exceedingly valuable, once someone won an item, it was standard to inspect and pay on the spot. Two auction staff members carrying the bunny approached Su Xiaoxi’s seat directly.

Not far ahead, Zhen Xiaosa was secretly snickering to himself. Selling a bunny for the exorbitant price of ten million was definitely a sky-high bid. Not only would he earn recognition from his family, but he also stood to get a hefty reward himself. At that moment, he felt incredibly clever—just a little bit of cunning had allowed him to not only deal with the person who had covered him in cream yesterday but also made her fall for it, hook, line, and sinker.

"Miss, please inspect the bunny you’ve bought. If there are no issues, we can proceed with the payment," said the staff member courteously.

These staff members were all powerful martial artists with cultivation at the level of Six or Seven Stars. Using such highly cultivated personnel for the job was to prevent any troublemaking by customers who might cause disruptions after winning bids.

Su Xiaoxi glanced at Tang Ming, her eyes signaling, Aren’t you supposed to have a plan?

Tang Ming nodded subtly, smiling as he looked at the bunny. He stopped Su Xiaoxi, who was ready to pay, and told the staff, "There’s something wrong with this bunny."

"Problem?"

The staff member was taken aback and chuckled, "Sir, we’ve checked this bunny; there shouldn’t be any health issues!"

"No issues?"

Tang Ming pointed at the bunny within the cage, saying,

"Take a look for yourself, this bunny looks like it’s about to die."

As soon as he said this, both staff members and Su Xiaoxi turned their attention to the bunny, only to see the little creature starting to roll its eyes back, looking seriously ill, as though some acute disease had taken hold.

"See? This sick bunny of yours is about to kick the bucket."

Tang Ming pointed at the rabbit Dodo and spoke.

The staff member was completely baffled, the rabbit hadn’t been handed over, and the card hadn’t been swiped yet, and now the rabbit had turned out like this, what on earth should they do?

Su Xiaoxi quickly put the card into her pocket and shook her head looking at the pitiful Dodo rabbit about to die of sickness, and couldn’t help feeling a pang of pain in her heart, reprimanding, "How did you take care of this rabbit? It’s really pitiful."

Meanwhile, Zhen Xiaosa, who had been observing the payment situation from a distance, saw that the trade had stopped and that the rabbit Dodo inside the cage seemed about to die, hurriedly stood up and walked over here.

"What’s happened to my rabbit?"

As Zhen Xiaosa came over, he saw the rabbit Dodo’s dying breath inside the cage, and anxiously asked.

"This is your rabbit?"

The staff member glanced at Zhen Xiaosa and then said, "This rabbit probably has some hidden sickness, and now it has suddenly acted up, it doesn’t seem like it’s going to live much longer."

"Impossible, the spiritual beasts our family feeds are always healthy and never have any problems."

Zhen Xiaosa was fuming and glared at Tang Ming and Su Xiaoxi, then pointed at them and said, "It must be you guys, you guys must have tampered with the rabbit."

When the staff heard this, their eyes all looked towards Tang Ming and Su Xiaoxi at once.

Tang Ming was dismissive and sarcastically said, "Are you stupid, or is water in your brain? Don’t say everyone saw it, we haven’t even touched your rabbit, and besides, we were willing to spend ten million to buy this rabbit, why would we kill it for no reason?"

"If not you, then who?"

Zhen Xiaosa saw the rabbit’s condition, obviously not going to live much longer, so he could only push the blame onto Tang Ming and the others.

"How should we know?"

Tang Ming crossed his arms and sneered, "You should go get a tan at the beach."

"Get a tan?"

Su Xiaoxi looked at Tang Ming with confusion, thinking why does this guy always say such irrelevant things?

Tang Ming glanced at Su Xiaoxi and explained, "If he doesn’t get a tan, everyone will know he’s an idiot."

"Heh heh, right."

Su Xiaoxi began to laugh, but Zhen Xiaosa was so angry that his face went green.

At that moment, the two staff members saw that if the argument continued like this, there would be no end to it, and it would also affect the auction. Besides, they could testify that these people never touched the rabbit, so they directly said to Zhen Xiaosa:

"The rabbit was brought out by you, and now that there’s a problem, they are definitely not going to want it, so this auction is canceled."

"Canceled? A rabbit of mine has died, and you guys just don’t care?"

Zhen Xiaosa flew into a rage upon hearing this, seeing the money that was about to be his disappear, of course, made him furious, and he couldn’t help but start yelling at the two staff members.

"Humph, stop making a scene, if you have an issue, you can go talk to the organizers of the auction. We have the full video recording of the whole process, they absolutely didn’t touch your rabbit, and according to the auction agreement, we hold no responsibility for the care of living creatures."

The staff member spoke with a cold face, and Zhen Xiaosa immediately dared not say anything.

He didn’t have the courage to confront the organizers of the auction, this time he could only admit defeat, and he reached out to take Dodo the rabbit.

However, the staff member reminded him, "However, there’s one thing I need to remind you, although the deal has failed, the auction’s commission fee still applies, because it occupied auction time."

"What?"

When Zhen Xiaosa heard this, his head spun, and he quickly waved his hands and ran off, shouting, "This rabbit isn’t mine, don’t look for me, goodbye!"
