305 Ghost Market Auction

However, even if Xiang Yin did not tell her, she could guess his identity. He was definitely not simple. However, this did not do her any harm, so she did not investigate.

Gu Man did not want to tangle with the Ghost King too much. She only nodded slightly and turned to walk towards the entrance of the auction.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Ghost Market Auction, the auction this time was much more formal than the last time. They even needed an invitation to enter the auction.

Looking at the red invitation letter with gold trimmings that Xiang Yin handed to the waiter, Gu Man looked over.

Sensing Gu Man’s curiosity, Xiang Yin explained, “The things at this auction are even more precious than the last, so there are restrictions on the number of people. Usually, those who can participate in the auction are all famous people, so the number of robberies will be greatly reduced.”

After all, everyone in the circle knew each other. Even if there was a room to cover them, they could more or less guess if they could be provoked.

What’s more, no one wanted to lose face because of a little thing, so robberies would be greatly reduced.

The two of them were led into a private room by the waiter. A screen in front blocked the downstairs and upstairs.

In the middle of the room was an electronic screen. The content on the screen was the stage in the middle. The screen was very high-definition, and all the details could be seen clearly. There was no need to worry about not being able to see the details.

The entire room had an ancient vibe. There was tea and some refreshments on the pearwood table. There were only two upright pearwood chairs in the room. On the chairs were custom-made cushions. They were very soft to sit on and did not feel cold.

As soon as Gu Man sat down, a lady in a cheongsam came in to pour tea for her. The fragrance of the tea instantly spread, adding an ancient charm to the room.

The auction had yet to begin and it was very lively downstairs. One could even hear some discussions.

“Sir, Miss, do you need me to move the screen for you?”

After the woman in the cheongsam poured the tea, she leaned over to Gu Man and asked. Her posture was humble, making people have a good impression of her. Moreover, she did not have any pungent perfume on her.

Gu Man looked at the screen in front of her and noticed the curtain tied up above. She nodded slightly.

The auction had yet to begin. She also wanted to see the scene below.

The screen was moved aside and the tied curtain fell down, just enough to block the scene in the house, but it did not block the view too much and allowed the people upstairs to see the scene downstairs clearly.

Gu Man looked down, but she did not expect to see a familiar figure.

It was the intimate Zhang Yue and Gu Rou. Gu Man cursed her bad luck in her heart and restrained her expression.

Xiang Yin followed Gu Man’s gaze and naturally saw Zhang Yue and Gu Rou. He did not have a good impression of these two people.

“If you don’t like it, you can get someone to cover it with a screen.”

Gu Man raised her hand to stop the person behind her. “It’s fine.”

They were just two irksome flies. Why should her mood be affected because of them?

Gu Man picked up the tea on the pearwood table. Her movement was casual and polite.

Her etiquette was unfamiliar, but she was extremely dignified. The pressure that her body unconsciously revealed made people want to submit.

Xiang Yin had never seen this bearing before, but there was a thought in his heart that kept clamoring. This must be an even older bearing, it’s just that he had never seen it before.

“Did you learn your manners on your own?”

As she knew about the grudge between Gu Man and the Gu family, Xiang Yin naturally would not naively think that the Gu family had taught it to Gu Man.

Gu Man placed the teacup on the table, a little surprised that Xiang Yin would ask this question.

“I guess.”

Her every move was just out of habit. Perhaps in the eyes of modern people, it was indeed etiquette.

Gu Man’s eyes narrowed as if she had thought of something and chuckled. It seemed that many people had indeed learned her actions and called it etiquette.

Then she was indeed self-taught.
