Chapter 96: His Wife Intercepted Him
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
She took out her phone and saw that it was Lin Bufan.
If he didn’t have any urgent matters, he would usually contact her directly on the forum.
Her fingertip pressed the call button.
“Boss, I’ve got news about the thousand-year tiger bone you asked me to find a few days ago. Jia De Auction House is holding an auction this afternoon, and they just released the information that one of the items up for auction is a
thousand-year tiger bone. I’m on my way to the auction house now, hoping to intercept it before the auction starts.”
Tigers were already endangered animals protected at a national level, and their bones were extremely rare. Finding a tiger bone that had been preserved for over a thousand years was exceptionally uncommon.
It was impossible to find them in medicinal markets or regular hospitals.
When it appeared in the auction, the price was calculated in grams.
She wasn’t afraid that the price would be too high, but she was afraid that someone else would set their eyes on this thing and make a move before they did.
“Got it. Send me the address.”
A thousand-year tiger bone not only had remarkable effects in treating skeletal diseases, but it was also a sacred item for dispelling evil spirits.
It was crucial for both Shen Muxian and for breaking the formation in the future.
When Lu Miao arrived at the auction house, Lin Bufan was in his office discussing terms with the person in charge and the seller.
When Luan Miao arrived at the auction house, Lin Bufan was in the office negotiating with the auction organizer and the seller.
The Lin family was also a renowned and influential household in Luo City, so naturally, the auction organizer treated him with respect. Since the seller happened to be present as well, they were all brought into the office directly.
“Sorry, but I can’t sell this tiger bone to you,” the seller firmly stated, holding the box in their hands.
Lin Bufan felt helpless. “Miss Song, may I ask what you’re dissatisfied with?
Even if you put this item up for auction later, you’ll still have to sell it.”
The seller shook his head.” I’m sorry.”
Lin Bufan was having a headache. When he saw Lu Miao enter, he quickly stood up and went forward,” Boss, you’re here. The seller refused to sell.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
“It’s you.”
Lu Miao looked in the direction of the voice and saw a pale and haggard young woman walking toward her with a surprised expression.
Seeing that Lu Miao did not seem to remember, the woman quickly said,” It’s me, Song Yin. Thank you for saving my son at the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant.”
Lu Miao did not pay much attention to her when she was saving her, so she did not recognize her immediately.
“You’re welcome. You’ve already thanked me last time.”
Song Yin thought of Lin Bufan’s words and knew that Lu Miao was the one who wanted to buy the tiger bone. She immediately turned around and took the box from the table and handed it to Lu Miao.
“Here, this is the thousand -year-old tiger bone you need.”
Lu Miao really needed this item at the moment, so she did not reject it.” How much is it? I’ll transfer it to you.”
Song Yin shook her head.” You saved my son’s life last time, so I never had the chance to thank you. This is my gift to you.
Naturally, Lu Miao would not accept it for free. Just as she was about to speak, Song Yin spoke first,” Well, I still have something to do, so I’ll be leaving first.”
She did not give Lu Miao a chance to speak at all and left in a hurry.
Lin Bufan looked at the box in Luan Miao’s hand and blinked.
He had just tried every possible way, even offering an astronomical price, but couldn’t get it done. And now, with their big boss appearing, it was resolved?
Could it be that the woman had given them a fake?
“Boss, are you sure there’s no problem with the item?” Lin Bufan asked.
Luan Miao opened the box, revealing a bone fragment about the size of half a palm. He lightly touched it with his fingertips and confirmed that it was indeed a thousand-year tiger bone.
Song Yin’s haggard face flashed past his eyes. He pursed his lips slightly.” Go and find out what happened to her recently.”
She must be in urgent need of money to put this item up for auction. She refused to sell it to them but still needed money. There must be something going on.
Meanwhile, outside the auction house, a black Maybach slowly came to a stop.
Gu Shiyu helped Elder Sun out of the car.
“Mr Gu, I’m really sorry. Last time, I troubled you to help me find someone.
This time, I’ll have to trouble you to accompany me on this trip.” Gu Shiyan said, “Elder Sun, you’re too polite. It’s what I should do.”
“That thousand-year-old tiger bone is really rare. There are likely quite a number of people who have their eyes on it. If I don’t trouble you, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to buy it…’
Elder Sun muttered as he thought about getting the thousand-year tiger bone soon. His footsteps became more agile and brisk.
“Who is it?”
The two of them entered the auction house’s hall and coincidentally ran into the person in charge.
When the person-in-charge saw Gu Shiyan, he quickly went forward and greeted him respectfully.
“Mr Gil.”
Gu Shiyan looked up and sized up the hall. He asked directly, “Where is the seller who auctioned the tiger bone? I’ve already asked someone to contact her previously and said that she would wait for me in the hall.” When the person-in-charge heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
He was indeed the one who called Song Yin over.
How would he know that this young master had already made an appointment with the seller to buy the tiger bones?
If he had known earlier, even if he had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn’t have dared to interfere and introduce the seller to someone else.
Seeing the person in charge’s silence, Gu Shiyu narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “Hmm?”
The simple word sounded lazy, but it was very oppressive.
The person in charge raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He mustered up his courage and braced himself as he stammered.
“Ermm…l’m sorry, Mr Gu. That tiger bone was already…lt has already been bought.”
“Bought it? We called half an hour ago, and the seller said she was waiting for us here.’Elder Sun was anxious.
“Just, just now.” The person-in-charge lowered his head and did not dare to look at Gu Shiyan.
Gu Shiyan’s eyes darkened.
His staff had already informed the auction house in advance that he wanted to buy it, and the auction would definitely inform the other party in advance.
Knowing well that it was what he wanted, someone still dared to snatch it. He’s really curious to know who bought it.
The icy chill in his voice terrified the person in charge almost to the point of tears.
He didn’t dare offend Mr Gu, but Young Master Lin was not someone to be trifled with either.
And that woman referred to as “Boss” by Young Master Lin, who could command such respect from him, who knows what kind of formidable person she was.
He was just a miserable working man. Why did he have to encounter such divine beings fighting each other?
Gu Shiyan did not make another sound, but the coldness on his body became stronger and stronger. Even the surrounding temperature seemed to have dropped a little.
The hall that was bustling just now had quieted down.
The person-in-charge was trembling with fear, and his legs could not help but go weak.
Gritting his teeth, he closed his eyes and braced himself. “It’s Young Master
Lin. ”
Gu Shiyan narrowed his eyes slightly. In Luo City, the surname Lin could still be called Young Master Lin. There was only one person who could make this person-in-charge stutter…
“Lin Bufan?”
“Uh… Yes.” The person in charge trembled as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
He apologized to Lin Bufan in his heart.
Although he couldn’t afford to offend either of them, Mr Gu was more terrifying than Lin Bufan..
