Chen Yifeng looked at Helian Wei Wei in disbelief. She smiled with a hint of evil charm and playfulness, and looked at all the n.o.ble ladies and gentlemen with ridicule in her eyes: “So it seems the location of the Profound Heaven auction is very popular.”
“But of course.” The arrogant people glanced at her “Do you not even know what Profound Heaven is? I suppose it is not surprising, people like you probably would not even have seen any armaments from Profound Heaven.”
Chen Yifeng’s eyes were red with anger: “Why would our boss need to go to see armaments of Profound Heaven? The armament made by the supreme masters are also top quality.”
“Oh, country b.u.mpkins will always be country b.u.mpkins, just can’t communicate with them.” That person held a handkerchief: “My sisters, let us not stand here and waste our time. We should see if we can buy tickets for the back row through Miss Jiao Er. There is no point trying to think about buying first row seats as they will all have been booked.”
“That is true. I heard the auction will not start until the evening. We should take our leave now and go to see if Miss Jiao Er can take us inside. What do you think?”
“I think will work.”
A group of people chatted and laughed, and walked away towards to the courtyard. Even a few people who had been surrounding Helian Wei Wei walked away looking embarra.s.sed. This kind of situations happened quite often even in modern times.
This was probably because deep down, they looked down on Helian Wei Wei. As those people have said, she had no power or authority so whatever she did she was doomed to be criticised. But these people never would have never thought that they will soon come to come to regret their decision today.
Helian Wei Wei looked at the people around her, other than Chen Yifeng, there were two girls and a boy. One of the girls made Helian Wei Wei raise her eyebrows, this was the girl that Hei Ze has been in love with from his childhood but never dared to confess to.
Nalan Hongye saw Helian Wei Wei look at her eyes raised up boldy: “What?”
“Would you be interested in walking with me?” Although Helian Wei Wei asked a question, she did not give the other person a chance to refuse, her finger gripped Nalan Hongye’s wrist. She had to keep hold of her, the future lady of the Hei Family. A ticket to the Profound Heaven was nothing, she could just put all the bills onto Hei Ze’s account at the store later on.
The more Helian Wei Wei thought about it the more she found the idea genius, and her smiled deepened.
“Yeah.” Nalan Hongye had never seen this type of woman before. Her smile made people feel comfortable and she had a mysterious gaze. She had always done things like a man, because her home had many men, she was brought up like she was one.
She did not understand women, even though she was one herself. For example, when they ate, the topics were always about Helian Wei Wei. She did not want to partic.i.p.ate in this topic, so these people alienated her. Wretches! All she wanted was to be a beautiful girl who ate quietly, was that so difficult! And why did the letters written to Hei Ze have to be sent through her?
All these letters will greatly affect her future marriage. When she spoke to Hei Ze about this, he only ever sneered and told her if she kept sending these letters to the Hei Family Residence, she should not go to see him again! When she did not go to see him, he got angry and told her she was heartless that she did not go to bring him a meal when he was locked up.
She felt that Hei Ze was like those women, like a needle at the bottom of the ocean, hard to get, with a mult.i.tude of different feelings all the time. They were truly confusing.
Helian Wei Wei looked at the side of Nalan Hongye’s face, she did not think that this girl would walk by her side so nimbly. She thought that she would be looked down upon due to Hei Ze’s influence. This was rather fascinating.
“Why don’t you ask me where I am taking you?” Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows.
Nalan Hongye’s face was attractive and intelligent as she casually replied: “I am familiar with the four cities.”
“I can verify this.” Chen Yifeng raised his hand; ” She knows all the local bosses, the armaments they make are also very powerful. Just don’t know why they were a.s.signed to the Good Compound.”
Nalan Hongye looked at Chen Yifeng puzzled; “How do you know so much?”
Chen Yifeng’s face grew red, he kept his head down and did not speak.
Helian Wei Wei saw it clearly, Nalan Hongye had a lovable cute baby face, she had beautiful tender skin and was not pretentious at all. Once anyone saw the goodness in her, they no doubt would have fallen head over heels for her.
Hei Ze better watch out, or his sweetheart will run off with someone else and he will be left with nothing.
“Hei Ze won’t let me go to the Fine Compound, he said he will be distracted by the sight of me.” Nalan Hongye said: ” It is probably my temper that makes him ashamed of me, it is my fault for being so ignorant.”
Helian Wei Wei paused, a beautiful red phoenix spread upwards, this girl’s looks was deceiving, she knew everything, more than everyone else, but just did not want to partic.i.p.ate.
“You can come to our Inferior Compound, I am always bored.” Helian Wei Wei still held on to her hand, walked forward and smiled at the girl. “Other than being serious in our cla.s.ses, there isn’t much entertainment.”
Chen Yifeng: “…..”
Nalan Hongye “……”
‘Being serious in cla.s.s’ these four words, were they really appropriate for her – a girl who only slept all the time until she was nearly expelled?
“Right, boss, where are we going?” Nalan Hongye did not want to know, but the others did, after all, taking their leave was a luxury for them.
Helian Wei Wei smiled lightly and said: “We will also be going to the Profound Heaven.”
Another hour pa.s.sed. After the sunset, the show started, the streets were full of excitement, people came and went, and the traffic was so busy. From people kneading sugar to selling rouge and powders,even divination and fortune telling; there was everything.
Originally, the capital city was the most prosperous city in the War Dragon Empire, with a dense population and luxurious buildings. Today, the streets were even more crowded, with everyone squeezing past each other, and the most luxurious horse carriages were probably all here gathered outside the gates of the Profound Heaven, waiting to enter.
There seemed to be a few people wearing the uniforms from the White Academy, from a distance it looked to be six or seven of them, boys and girls who surrounded Helian Jiao Er, laughing and talking, probably hoping Helian Jiao was going to bring them in with her.
Helian Jiao Er could see through their intentions, but to spend a bit of money was not a big deal seeing that the fathers of these people could be useful in court. Therefore, Helian Jiao Er did not refuse, but rather appeared to be generous and acted like as if the Profound Heaven was owned by her family.
