Chapter 2043: Talk about conditions
Sima You Yue contacted Wu Lingyu, got his position, and went to him.
“You Yue, you came back so soon?” Fu Xi was a little surprised when he saw her.
“Well, I came back after something happened,” Sima You Yue said.
“Have you found any news?”
“The jade pendant is from Hai Xing’s Little Aunt, Hai Mian. However, she is not here. She was bought by Ghost Concubine.”
“Ghost Concubine? Isn’t she a woman? Even if you buy Hai Mian, it won’t be of any use to her, right?”
“It was said that she used her to reward the people around her, but I think that the Chief Steward’s words were a little slippery and I can’t completely believe it.” Sima You Yue said, “I have contacted Cousin on the way back just now and asked him to check it out in the Imperial Capital.”
“Then have you found the person behind this?” Fu Xi asked.
“There are some suspicions, but I’ve yet to confirm it.” Sima You Yue said, “Someone will come and explain to me.”
“What did you do again?”
“It’s nothing, just poisoning people and the likes of it….” Sima You Yue said, “Has the invitation letter arrived?”
“If I take action, do I need to worry?” Wu Lingyu showed her the invitation letter. She saw that he had created an invitation letter for a first-class room and knew that he should not be so relaxed.
“Well, Mi Er stole most of the auction stuff, so I don’t know if this auction will still be held.” She apologized and smiled. She had known it this way, so she wouldn’t let him do this.
“Mi Er is great! I thought of this.” Fu Xi said, “What are the treasures?”
“I didn’t ask, since you are interested, go back and ask him.” Sima You Yue said.
“Someone is here. Could it be that you stole something from someone? The other party is chasing?” Fu Xi said.
“The messenger is here.”
Sima You Yue was not surprised to see Lan Yue chasing her. Although she didn’t believe what he said, she knew that he would come to her for an antidote. As long as he was by her side, she can always come up with some news.
Lan Yue saw her, and he looked like she was about to cry: “It started to hurt again after you left, and it’s so painful that it’s killing me.”
“It should be painful this time, and it will hurt every two hours in the next two days. Each time it takes longer and longer, you’d better be mentally prepared.” Sima You Yue said.
“Do you have to be so cruel! I have helped you find out where Hai Mian is, and at that time I even took you to escape through the tunnel. You can’t do this to me!” Lan Yue complained.
However, his tone was too familiar, so Wu Lingyu looked at him a few more times, and the cold gaze caused the surrounding temperature to drop a lot.
“That’s what you said, for the sake of helping me, next time you have a stomachache, I will give you a temporary antidote.” Sima You Yue also seriously responded to him.
“…you are so kind!” Lan Yue said through gritted teeth.
“Thank you for the compliment!” Sima You Yue accepted it comfortably.
“Then I can only follow you.” Lan Yue said.
“If you tell me what happened to you, I can immediately give you the antidote.” Sima You Yue said, “but you didn’t choose this path yourself, what more can I say?”
“I said that I don’t know, and you don’t believe me.”
“Then I’ll treat it as your status as low in the family, do you at least know who is behind you?”
“I know, the Chief Steward has brought me up since I was a child. He said that I am the Young Master, so I am the Young Master. As for the others, I don’t know.”
“Since he is in charge, how about the people above him? You’ve never met anyone?”
“I have seen them before, but the people who come down above are wearing masks that isolate the spirits. I don’t know who they are and what they look like.” Lan Yue said.
What he said was true. Apart from knowing the appearance of the Chief Steward, the people at the underground auction also have him as the Young Master. He did not know who the other stewards were.
And he has never seen him, even though he was raised by them and knew everything about the underground auction house, but he didn’t know who raised him.
The adoptive father said that he was only an adopted son, and he could only do these ugly things. Those things on the surface had nothing to do with him. He couldn’t know or interfere. But in this auction house, he was the future successor!
However, no matter how much he valued him, he would not feel his own importance. Otherwise, why didn’t he tell himself his identity? !
He thought so much in his heart, but his face didn’t change much, he looked at Sima You Yue very sincerely. Sima You Yue didn’t say to believe him or didn’t believe it, staring at him with great pressure.
This woman was really hard to deal with!
At last he spoke again: “What I said is true, do you believe it or not?”
“What does it matter if I believe it or not? If you say you don’t know who it is, then you don’t know. Anyway, I don’t know the person behind it, so I won’t give you the antidote. Anyway, it will only take two days.” Sima You Yue said.
Lan Yue: “…”
“Why don’t you let me do this thing for you?”
“No, I don’t have anything else for you to do.” Sima You Yue shook her head, as if not getting in.
“Then I will give you a special invitation letter for the auction, so that they won’t charge you the handling fee.”
“Everything is gone, can you still hold an auction?”
“What you took is only confirmed this time, and we still have some reserve stock.”
“You lost other people’s auction items, I don’t see you in a hurry!”
“Those things are all sold at auctions. They are sold to auctions by others, and then we use them for auction.”
“No wonder, you are really profiteers! You can make a lot of difference between sales, right?”
“We have to take a big risk too!”
“Risks and benefits are equal.”
Lan Yue took a deep look at her when he heard this.
“You Yue, are we going to the auction?” Fu Xi asked.
“Nope, not going. Let’s head back to the Imperial Capital.” Sima You Yue wanted to go back to solve the matter earlier, and then go to the Ghost King to check on his situation.
As for the background of the underground auction, she could feel that Lan Yue would not tell her.
Lan Yue followed her over the past two days. The method that he had previously thought about for exchanging the antidote no longer worked and he couldn’t get the antidote for a while.
Sima You Yue talked and counted, and when he was in pain next time, she gave him a temporary antidote.
It only hurt for a short time just now, but he clearly felt the pain this time was worse than the previous two times.
Just when he was anxious, his people contacted him. Seeing the news from the hidden guard, he was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled.
He went to Sima You Yue when she was about to return to the Imperial Capital.
“Let’s talk.”
“Are you going to talk about the people behind you?” Sima You Yue asked.
“No, I have another thing to talk to you about.” Lan Yue said, “You give me the antidote, and I will tell you about Leng Yun and their whereabouts.”
