The room was too small, the female staff was suspicious
He only thought Ye Tian had gone in to visit.
People like him came every day, treating the Dragon Ascension Auction House as a place to check in.
The higher-ups did not prohibit such behavior that could increase popularity; instead, they welcomed it.
The first floor of the Dragon Ascension Auction House was a very large hall, over ten meters high.
The ground was covered with high-quality marble, polished so brightly it reflected people.
"Sir, if you wish to consign items for auction, please follow me this way."
Fang Yue was clearly familiar with the place and led Ye Tian towards a counter.
Ye Tian nodded and followed the young woman to a counter.
A female staff member, wearing a qipao with a blue landscape painting, greeted them.
"Hello, how may I help you?"
The female staff member was enthusiastic and had a clear voice.
She was quite beautiful, tall, and her rather full figure was perfectly showcased by the qipao.
The qipao's slit wasn't very high, but it revealed her long, white legs.
An ordinary person would want to hold those long legs in their arms and play with them.
However, Ye Tian had seen countless women (purely in terms of observation), and he had no such thoughts.
Ye Tian got straight to the point, stating his purpose for being there: "I need to auction some items here."
"Sir, do you plan to auction them at the large auction in seven days, or at the regular monthly auction?"
The female staff member did not show any disdain for Ye Tian despite his youthful appearance.
Her attitude remained very enthusiastic.
Ye Tian replied, "Naturally, I'll be auctioning them at the large auction in seven days."
He didn't want to wait another month, nor did he have the time.
Besides, his items were more than worthy of being auctioned at a large auction.
"Sir, we have already prepared many items for the large auction in a week. If we accept items now, their grade must at least reach the Quasi-King Rank."
The female staff member politely informed him of the situation.
Ye Tian understood her meaning and nodded, saying,
"I understand. Should I take them out here, or should we go somewhere else? I have quite a few items."
The hall was indeed very large, but with people coming and going, it was easy for secrets to leak.
Ye Tian didn't want to make it public knowledge.
The female staff member understood the implication in Ye Tian's words and extended her hand, saying, "Please follow me, both of you."
She assumed Fang Yue was Ye Tian's female companion, after all, handsome men are often paired with beautiful women.
Such a handsome and beautiful pair, and they came together, so they must be a couple.
Ye Tian did not stop her.
Talking along the way, he saw that the young woman's character was not bad, and even if she saw something, she probably wouldn't talk about it outside.
"This person is actually going to a private room. Now we won't get to see him make a fool of himself."
"Yeah, private rooms are confidential. Even if I knew a staff member here, the Dragon Ascension Auction House wouldn't leak any secrets."
"It doesn't matter, we can wait at the door and see their expressions when they come out, won't we know then?"
"You're right..."
....
The few people who had followed saw Ye Tian and the others walk away and quickly followed them.
The Dragon Ascension Auction House was very large. Led by the female staff member, the three of them took an elevator to the fifth floor.
There were many private rooms here.
Each private room had a formation to effectively prevent eavesdropping and peeping, ensuring the client's privacy.
The female staff member opened the door to a room and led Ye Tian and Fang Yue inside.
The room was over ten square meters, elegantly decorated yet not lacking in grandeur.
The female staff member closed the door and said, "Sir, you can now take out the items you wish to consign for auction."
Ye Tian glanced around the room, shook his head, and said,
"This room is too small. Can we change to a larger room? Preferably a room several hundred square meters in size."
Ye Tian thought of the Beast King corpses in his space ring.
Each one was enormous; even the smallest one wouldn't fit in this room.
"Sir, are you sure you want to change to a room that's several hundred square meters?"
The female staff member heard Ye Tian's words and thought she might have misheard.
This young man looked only eighteen or nineteen; what good things could he possibly have on him?
She was willing to bring Ye Tian to a private room because he was incredibly handsome.
But now Ye Tian was complaining that this room was too small and wanted a room several hundred square meters in size.
This surprised her, and she also felt a little suspicious.
However, with excellent professional ethics, she maintained a smile, only saying with some embarrassment,
"Sir, the large rooms you mentioned are available at our Dragon Ascension Auction House, but only our supervisor can open them. I don't have that authority. If it's convenient for you, please wait for me here for a moment. I'll go call our supervisor over."
Ye Tian didn't mind waiting a little longer, and since the female staff member lacked the authority, he nodded and said,
"Alright, you go ahead."
"Okay. You can have some tea and rest here."
The female staff member picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup for Ye Tian and Fang Yue each, and then gracefully left with long strides.
Fang Yue hadn't spoken since they entered, but upon hearing Ye Tian's request, she also didn't react immediately.
Her curiosity was piqued by Ye Tian, and she was very curious about what he intended to consign for auction that would require such a large room.
It couldn't possibly be an exotic beast corpse, could it?!
'But even a Quasi-King Rank exotic beast corpse isn't that big. If you squeeze it, it should still fit here.'
Although puzzled, Fang Yue adhered to her principles as a tour guide and didn't ask further questions.
Outside.
Seeing the female staff member come out so quickly, the few people who had followed laughed and said,
"See? That kid clearly doesn't have anything good on him, otherwise this female staff member wouldn't have come out so quickly."
The unattractive young man said, "But the staff member here has come out, so why haven't Ye Tian and Fang Yue come out yet? They wouldn't be doing something they shouldn't in there, would they?"
The thought of his long-desired goddess alone in a small room with a very handsome man.
A single man and woman, dry tinder and raging fire, handsome man and beautiful woman...
With so many buffs, that kind of thing was most likely to happen.
The thought of the woman he liked possibly doing that kind of thing with someone else in a room.
The ordinary-looking young man's mentality was about to explode.
"Hmph, I told you Fang Yue wasn't a good woman!"
"When she comes out, we'll know if she did anything out of line with that person inside by seeing if her skin is red."
"But Zhao Fei, you should stop thinking about Fang Yue. There are plenty of good girls in the world besides her."
The pockmarked girl said, puffing out her small chest.
"Qiao Li, what do you know? Fang Yue is our school's campus belle, a goddess! Who else would I like if not her? Am I supposed to like..."
The ordinary-looking young man glanced at the pockmarked girl, then quickly turned his head away. The unspoken words were clear to everyone present.
"Oh, so Zhao Fei, I helped you, and you actually slandered me? You're truly biting the hand that feeds you, not knowing a good person's heart!"
