Chapter 428 Auction trap (5)
Chapter 428 Auction trap (5)
After showing us to our room, the beautiful woman just stood there by the door as we settled in.
Shaka was about to go stand on the side, but I waved for him to come over and sit down with me.
He was about to say something, but I just shook my head.
In the end, he came over and sat down with me.
When the beautiful woman saw that we had settled in, she moved forward from the door where she had been standing and came to the side.
I was surprised to see her still here since I thought that she would leave after showing us this room, but she came right up beside me and said, “Count Zwein, how are you liking this room? Is there anything that I can do to make it more comfortable for you?”
I narrowed my eyes a bit, but sensing no hostility from her, I said, “No, there’s no need for anything. I’m very comfortable right now.”
But even after I said this, she didn’t seem to get the message and came in closer.
She leaned forward and said, “If there’s anything that you want, please feel free to tell me.”
After saying this, she brought her hands up to her chest and crossed them under her breasts, accentuating them before saying, “And I do mean anything.”
When she made it this clear, even a fool would be able to understand what she was trying to say.
I had thought that she was an assassin, but that wasn’t the case.
She…was just trying to pull herself up with her beauty.
She was most likely a middle level worker for this auction house, so she was trying to use her body to seduce me so that I would take her as a concubine.
I couldn’t help wondering just how many people she had tried this with before and then a feeling of disgust filled me.
I liked my women classy instead of cheap like this.
She was without a doubt beautiful, but the inside…was rotten.
So I couldn’t help feeling disgusted by this fruit.
I flicked my hand to push her back before saying in a cold voice, “I’m fine. That is all.”
When I spoke in this cold voice, the beautiful woman felt a chill run down her spine and she couldn’t help taking a step back. She opened and closed her mouth, but in the end, she just said, “Alright. If you need anything, please don’t hesitate to call. I will be waiting outside the door to serve you at any time.”
I didn’t say a word as she left the room, I didn’t even bother looking in her direction since I was disgusted with her.
But I could have sworn I heard something…
“Could it be that he swings that way? No, it can’t be since he has a wife…Then is it because I didn’t show enough skin?”
I did what I could to ignore all of this, but I did hear snickering coming from beside me.
When I turned over, Shaka already had a straight look on his face.
There were no signs that he had been the one that had laughed, but I knew that it was him.
That was just how familiar we were with each other.
I made a mental note to get back at him later on, but I couldn’t help thinking about how the beautiful staff member had acted.
She did this so naturally…so did that mean that they were already trained for this?
Not to mention, most of the people that could afford to use these VVIP rooms were all nobles and powerful merchants. For her to do this so naturally, did that mean that most of them were perverts in the first place?
This world was based on a H-game, so it wasn’t strange to see this.
But I still couldn’t help feeling disgusted.
Before I could think about this any further, there was a voice that came from in front of us.
We looked down to see that it was some performers who had stepped onto the stage.
It wasn’t the auctioneer since there was still around half an hour before the auction started.
When we looked down, I could also see that there were a few people that were looking up and pointing at us while whispering.
Shaka and I had deliberately brought our seats forward a bit just so people could see us.
Some might think that we were vain because of this, but this was all part of the plan.
After all, we wanted to draw attention to ourselves so that we could accomplish our goal.
The show that was on the stage seemed to be some kind of play, but I really couldn’t get into it since we weren’t here to have fun in the first place. All I could do was look down at the crowd, trying to find anyone that could be considered suspicious.
But there wasn’t anyone that seemed to fit the bill.
That was until I heard a voice call out from beside me.
“Count Zwein, it seems that we’re meeting again.”
I could help being surprised when I heard this voice since I never thought that I would hear this voice again.
Sitting in the VVIP room beside me was…the eldest prince.
It was as if he had completely forgotten about what had happened between the two of us and he was acting like we were friends.
But just yesterday, he tried to kill me.
The thickness of his skin really was something else.
However, it wasn’t as if I could just ignore the eldest prince since he had spoken to me.
I looked at the eldest prince and calmly said, “Your highness, I never expected to meet you here today.”
The eldest prince revealed a faint smile before saying, “As you know, my royal family is the one that backs this auction house. I heard that there were some good items being sold this time, so I came to have a look.”
I couldn’t help narrowing my eyes slightly when I heard this.
Was he telling the truth and it was just a coincidence or did he follow me here…
Was he a part of the plan to assassinate me?
I couldn’t tell, so I had no choice but to force myself to smile right now.
