Junior sister took first place again

Chapter 122 Firefly Ganoderma

Each private room in Dongguang Pavilion is isolated from the prying eyes of outsiders, and the best tea and snacks are already served inside.

The maid who led the way poured two cups of tea, bowed and said:

"I wish both fairies success in bidding for what they need today. If you need anything, please ring the bell and call for help."

Ning Jiasheng nodded, and Liu Shuyao whispered thank you. Seeing that they had nothing else to do, the maid left.

"Shuyao, sit down."

Ning Jiasheng saw her standing there wringing her hands like a timid rabbit, and called out to her:

"I came to Floating Cloud City alone. Just consider me your companion. Don't be polite."

"Thank you, Sister Lian Sheng."

Liu Shuyao bowed to her properly before sitting opposite her.

"Shuyao is so young, why did she come to Zhongzhou alone without an elder by her side?"

Ning Jiasheng could see that Liu Shuyao's bone age was only a few years older than his own, and in the eyes of cultivators, she was a minor.

The auction won't start for quite some time yet, so I can't just sit there and do nothing.

Since she and I had just met, and I was older and more advanced than her, it was perfectly normal for me to ask such a question.

As expected, Liu Shuyao sat up straight and replied with a guilty conscience, "We were originally out for a trip, but when we heard about the Chaoge Auction being held in Liuyun City, we took Uncle Rong and went a little further away."

"I see."

Ning Jiasheng nodded in understanding, and said with a smile:

"The Chaoge Auction is held only once every ten years, and it's truly worth a visit. These are the items from the auction, Shuyao, take a good look."

Liu Shuyao's eyes lit up, she swallowed hard and said calmly, "Thank you, Sister Lian Sheng!"

After she said that, her ears turned red, but she couldn't resist the temptation and quickly took it and opened it.

Fortunately, she still remembered what she had just said, so she flipped through the pages like a little girl who was very interested in what was at the auction, exclaiming in surprise from time to time.

Ning Jiasheng also looked at her with a smile, occasionally responding.

Although they were all rare and precious treasures, Liu Shuyao didn't remember any of them. After flipping through seven or eight pages, she finally saw her target this time - a lifelike painting of Firefly Ganoderma.

It was introduced that the Chaoge Chamber of Commerce had collected a total of three Firefly Ganoderma that were about 800 years old. The starting price of each one was 8,000 high-grade spirit stones, and each bid increase was no less than 100 high-grade spirit stones.

Liu Shuyao's breathing and heartbeat quickened. She forced herself to remain calm and said, "Hey, this is good for Third Brother's health."

Ning Jiasheng took a look at the picture and found out that it was Firefly Ganoderma.

After the discussion that day, Xue You ordered someone to investigate Liu Shuyao's third brother.

However, after being rescued from the secret realm, Liu Shumo was seriously injured and fell into a coma. After waking up, he became a Jindan cultivator who was so weak that he coughed up blood when the wind hit him. He rarely went out on weekdays.

Xue You's men only brought back the medical records of Liu Shumo's treatment. After reading them, they were not sure which medicinal herb he needed.

Ning Jiasheng smiled and praised: "Shuyao is kind and always thinks about her family even when she is away."

Liu Shuyao's ears turned even redder. She couldn't bear such praise from Sister Lian Sheng. She had been lying to her all along.

Liu Shuyao continued to read, lowered her head and said embarrassedly: "Third brother is in poor health and often worries about us. We are all very worried about him."

I'm sorry, Sister Liansheng, please forgive my temporary deception. I must get the Firefly Ganoderma.

Liu Shuyao thought that after she brought the things back, she would go to Sister Lian Sheng to apologize and admit her mistake. She was willing to endure beatings and scolding, as long as Sister Lian Sheng calmed down.

Ning Jiasheng praised again after hearing this, and said distractedly: I don’t know how someone born in a noble family can develop such a simple personality. Everything she thinks is shown on her face, and I don’t even need to read her mind to know what she is thinking.

After wasting some time like this, when Liu Shuyao finished flipping through the booklet, the auction was about to begin. The half-demons performing on the stage had already left, and the hall gradually became quiet.
