65: A silent eye contact!

Fifty thousand?

Everyone turned to look at the man who had made the bid.

He wore a white robe, had a fair face, and carried a white fan.

The first impression everyone had was just four words—a frail scholar!

"Only a bookworm like this would spend fifty thousand to buy that thing, right?"

"Tsk, brother, I have a storage ring here. It's much better than that luminous pearl, and it's only forty thousand for you."

The man in white did not respond; instead, his gaze fell upon the old man hosting the auction on the stage.

The old man understood his look instantly.

He coughed and said, "If there are no bids higher than fifty thousand, then this luminous pearl will..."

"One hundred thousand!"

A voice rang out.

Everyone looked on in bewilderment, wondering who this big sucker was!

Chen Xian appeared in everyone's sight with a beaming smile.

"Isn't that Chen Xian, the Heir of the Marquis of Jubei?"

"What is this profligate doing here?"

"What else? Continuing to squander his family fortune, right? If he spends a hundred thousand to buy that thing, I'm sure he's definitely not a shill!"

In everyone's eyes, although Chen Xian had cleared his name of colluding with Demonic Cultivators,

he was still an unlearned and incompetent playboy.

The result of this impression was that no matter what Chen Xian did, they believed he was neglecting his proper duties.

As for Chen Xian, he had only one word in his heart for this evaluation—refreshing!

He said loudly, "Little sister, I think this luminous pearl is just right for you! This Young Master will show some kindness and buy it for you!"

"Tsk! This Young Master Chen is still acting like a simp as always!"

"He couldn't simp for Liu Ruyan, so he changed targets, is that it?"

"Brothers, I know the truth. That's a servant from Juxian Tower..."

Because of Chen Xian's interference, the scene became as chaotic as a wet market.

Below the stage, the white-robed scholar looked up at Chen Xian.

His expression seemed to be sizing him up, as if he wanted to see through this man.

On the contrary, Chen Xian continued to make a scene, shouting and yelling.

A few minutes later.

The luminous pearl ended up in Chen Xian's hands for the price of two hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

Chen Xian also didn't hesitate to throw the luminous pearl directly to Zhou Duoer.

"This Young Master rewards you!"

Handing out a treasure worth two hundred thousand as a reward.

Although many people sneered at this second generation ancestor behavior from Chen Xian,

there were also many women whose eyes began to glaze over when they looked at him.

Although Chen Xian was foolish, he was unfortunately rich!

The two of them, one high and one low,

were staring at each other in silence.

However, this eerie atmosphere was finally broken.

"Chen Xian, what are you doing here?"

Liu Ruyan stood behind Chen Xian in anger and grabbed his arm.

"Come with me!"

Chen Xian was caught off guard by the pull.

"Wait, what are you doing!"

The two of them went out, one after the other.

This immediately caught everyone's attention.

"Didn't they say this Eldest Young Miss Liu looked down on Chen Xian?"

"The way I see it now, it looks like she's jealous?"

"Who knows, but many women can't stand seeing their simp being too nice to someone else!"

Chen Xian was dragged out of Duobao Pavilion.

Only then did he shake off Liu Ruyan's hand!

"Liu Ruyan, what exactly do you want to do?"

Why did he feel like this woman was constantly going crazy?

Could it be that after two rounds of Yin and Yang union, she had fallen in love with him?

Chen Xian shook his head in his heart.

The possibility of that was pitifully small.

Liu Ruyan said indignantly, "Are you really with her?"

She had hurried back this morning specifically to go to Marquis Jubeis Residence to have a good talk with Chen Xian. But she didn't expect Chen Xian to not even be there, so she chased him all the way to Duobao Pavilion!

Seeing this fool squandering a fortune for a girl again,

on one hand, Liu Ruyan felt he was truly a fool,

and on the other hand, her heart felt incredibly uncomfortable.

He spent a fortune for another girl.

Did that mean she no longer had any position in his heart?

Recalling Chen Xian standing with Zi Yun last night,

she felt flustered for no reason.

Chen Xian said unceremoniously, "Who I am with doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?"

"Chen Xian, we were an engaged couple in the past. Even if we didn't get married, there's at least some old affection, right? How can you be so cold-blooded to me?"

Chen Xian sneered, "I remember when the Beast Tide happened a few days ago, you clearly told me about the matter of breaking off the engagement!"

"Now, relying on our Chen family, you've become a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, and based on my father's recommendation, you've become the Commander of Jubei City!"

"When you broke off the engagement, you didn't hesitate at all!"

"What kind of tricks are you trying to play with me here now?"

Every word he said

made Liu Ruyan's face turn a shade paler.

Especially when the last sentence was finished, Liu Ruyan's face was completely devoid of color!

"Chen Xian, I didn't mean to use you."

"I just feel that Zi Yun couldn't possibly like you; she's using you!"

Chen Xian shrugged.

"What if she likes me?"

"What if she's using me?"

"I was once completely sincere toward you, and in the end, didn't it all come to nothing!"

"I..."

Liu Ruyan was just about to explain.

At this moment, a voice came from behind.

"Sister Ruyan, so you're here. When the Demonic Cultivators came last night, I was very worried!"

Han Kun walked over with a smile.

As for Chen Xian, his brow furrowed when he saw this guy.

Although there was no conflict between him and Han Kun,

even if there were, it was just the original owner and Han Kun being jealous of each other over Liu Ruyan.

Especially since every time the two clashed, Han Kun, that green tea male, almost always had the upper hand!

Chen Xian thought of the second piece of intelligence today.

He whispered to Liu Ruyan, "I advise you to better keep an eye on Han Kun! He's not as simple as he appears on the surface!"

However, after saying this,

Liu Ruyan subconsciously said, "Han Kun is just like a younger brother to me and is pure by nature. Chen Xian, don't always have a subjective bias against him and look down on him!"

Seeing her defending Han Kun,

Chen Xian gave a cold laugh.

"Have it your way, I've said all I have to say. From now on, let's not contact each other anymore."

He finished speaking.

He turned around and disappeared at the end of the street with Zhou Duoer and the others.

And seeing this scene, Liu Ruyan subconsciously felt regret in her heart.

Just now, she had only defended Han Kun out of habit.

Now she also remembered that the two of them had been at odds for a long time.

Did blindly defending Han Kun like that also make Chen Xian sad?

If that were the case, time would reveal a person's heart.

Sooner or later, he would know that she and Han Kun were innocent!

However, if Liu Ruyan's thoughts were known by Chen Xian, he would likely die laughing.

Who has the time to let you 'reveal your heart' over time!

I'm not going to cater to you, you green tea bitch!

His gaze fell on the System panel.

[Daily Intelligence 2: Han Kun is a mole for the Demonic Cultivators!]

Chen Xian had already warned Liu Ruyan about this intelligence anyway.

No matter what happened in the future, it had nothing to do with him!

He continued to look down.
