Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation

Chapter 237

At an antique auction house in Gaulle, Wang Dingshan said to Jiang Xiu, "Mr. Jiang, this is St. Dove Antique Auction House. The thing you want is being auctioned here."

Jiang Xiu glanced at the auction house, and from its exterior, it resembled a church a little, having a dense historical feel to it. He guessed that it must be an old construction. "Let's go in."

There were some European antiques placed inside glass boxes and some of them even resembled bronze works from China. Seeing that visitors had arrived the auction house's staff welcome them. The staff person saw Wang Dingshan and smiled at him, "Mr. Wang, you're here again!"

"This is my boss, Mr. Jiang!"

The staff person spoke in a deferential tone, "Mr. Jiang, it's nice to meet you. We're honored to have you over at our auction house. Only, it's quite a pity that the thing you want is already sold."

"Also, the details left behind by the buyer are fake as well. We too are helpless about it."

Jiang Xiu looked at the antiques then said, "I didn't come here for the buyer's materials this time. Since he wants to hide, it won't be easy to find him. I wish to know the seller's details."

This Longevity Stone could deify an ordinary human. He was curious about the person who wanted to sell this Longevity Stone and whether he was affected by the Longevity Stone.

"Aaah?"

Jiang Xiu's words were out of the staff member's expectations.

"What? Is it inconvenient to reveal it?"

Jiang Xiu's ice-cold gaze fell on this thin 50-year-old European man. The latter immediately wore an apologetic smile, "It's naturally possible to do that…"

He went over and brought the information written in the registry books.

"I hope it's helpful to you, Mister!"

However, the outcome was disappointing. The phone number couldn't be reached. The phone number had changed, and even the bank account was closed.

After leaving the auction house, Jiang Xiu pondered on it a little. This matter felt strange to him. An anonymous seller and an anonymous buyer. He felt that it was possible this entire matter was a scheme to handle someone.

There was no way anyone wouldn't act when a thing like the Longevity Stone was at stake.

The cell phone began ringing at this moment. It was a call from Wang Xintong, "How's the progress at your side?"

"No progress for now!"

"What do you plan to do now? Return or stay there?"

"Of course, I'll stay here. There must be a reason that thing had appeared for the first time. It'll definitely appear again. I have to get this thing."

"Oh. Okay them. The reason I called was to tell you that when Amidst Heaven's businesses were halted, I acquired the authority to act as the Asia Pacific Region's agent of a famous luxury diamond brand of Gaulle. There's a party tonight where jewelry will be sold. Since you're in Europe, better buy a gift for the madame as well as that person in your heart."

Jiang Xiu didn't like Wang Xintong mentioning Cheng Lingran, but she had done the right thing in reminding him this time. It wouldn't be right to delay buying gifts for them due to focusing on what he had come here for.

"Buy something from the auction in the party. They are all good things you can't find outside."

"If you're interested in it, let Wang Dingshan get the invitation card."

"This time's party is the anniversary party, a grand event with quite the high standards!"

After returning to the hotel, Jiang Xiu discovered that the entrance was blocked up by a group of Chinese people. Jiang Xiu took a careful look and noticed a girl with shocking beauty walk in with her suitcase. He couldn't help but smile. It was quite the coincidence to run into a superstar here. Looking at her graceful gait, he guessed that her leg had healed properly.

Running into a noble person when going out or meeting an acquaintance in a foreign place were happy occasions.

He planned to go and greet her, but after seeing that no one was going to help her, he noticed a video camera as well as a mic and lighting equipment.

They were filming!

"Xiaoxiao…"

"Xiaoxiao…"

Jiang Xiu recalled that Xiao Xuetong had participated in a famous reality show's tour program in the previous life. He guessed she must be in the middle of filming that right now.

Since they were shooting, Jiang Xiu didn't call out to her and passed by her. An exceptional light flickered through Xiao Xuetong's eyes when she saw him. She couldn't believe it at first, but after glancing at him a few times, she was 80-90% certain it was Jiang Xiu. She wanted to call out to him but dropped the idea so that the shooting isn't delayed.

After the filming ended, Xiao Xuetong returned to the hotel and spoke to her agent, Sister Li. "Sister Li, I want to meet Jiang Xiu."

"Jiang Xiu?"

Sister Li removed the face pack from her face and prepared to spread a pack on Xiao Xuetong's face. It took a lot of time and money to maintain a female star's beauty.

"Huh, who?"

Xiao Xuetong came beside her then glared at her, "How could you forget it? It's that youth from the time when I got kidnapped in Jiang City."

Sister Li said, "You have so many fans. How will I remember each one? You should be more worried about the invitation card to the RV fashion show's party."

"The RV show is quite important and the former RV girls from the previous years will attend as well. All of them are excellent international stars. I don't have the qualifications to enter it so what can I do if I didn't get an invitation card? However, Jiang Xiu is different. He's in this hotel and is my savior."

She could never forget how determinedly Jiang Xiu had chased after the van which had kidnapped her. She will remember that scene all her life. Even the scenes of the most beautiful movie couldn't compare to that.

"What do you want to do?" Sister Li asked her.

Xiao Xuetong grabbed Sister Li's hand in a spoiled manner, "I want to go meet him."

Sister Li turned hostile immediately, "Are you crazy? There are so many fans outside. What if someone sees you together with a strange man in the hotel? If the paparazzi take a photo, they'll cook up some or the other story. An artist's public image is quite important so act obediently."

Xiao Xuetong pursed her lips, feeling wronged. "But he's my savior. Do you want others to say I'm a conscienceless person who doesn't know how to repay favors?"

Sister Li pondered on it, "Now that you mentioned it, I remember the incident. Isn't that person called Mr. Jiang, a famous person in Jiang City…" After reaching a level where a superstar like Xiao Xuetong was, big shots of areas were no better than mobs. She was already too used to being flattered by others and had seen many people like them. However, Jiang Xiu had left an impression on her because that day's experience was too unusual. Moreover, Mayor Gu had also appeared there. He was the governor of Jiangnan's border region.

Only, there was a clear difference between both of their cognition. Xiao Xuetong knew Jiang Xiu while Sister Li was speaking about Mr. Jiang.

"Yeh-Yeh! Him!"

Sister Li muttered to herself. She believed that it'd be better to have a good relationship with such a person. "Be careful then. Take care not to get your photo taken by anyone."

"Yay!" Xiao Xuetong jumped in excitement then immediately called her assistant.

The two of them came to the reception desk. Xiao Xuetong asked in fluent English, "Excuse me, can you tell me in which room is Mr. Jiang who came from China residing?"

The attendant researched it then shook his head, "I'm sorry, there's no one by that name here."

This was also no wonder as the hotel room was booked by the Wang family.

"Ehh?"

Xiao Xuetong was a little disappointed. Something like a friend booking a room was a typical affair. This was troublesome as it wasn't easy to look for a single person in such a huge hotel.

She became crestfallen and returned back to her room.

"How did it go?" Sister Li asked.

The assistant shook her head, "We couldn't find him."

Sister Li said, "Nothing can be done about this matter then. Since you couldn't find him, why don't you prepare to go for the RV anniversary party tonight? I already called the boss, but he rejected the idea. Xiaoxiao, why don't try doing something yourself? Becoming RV's ambassador isn't something to kid about. You'll have immediate international exposure."

Xiao Xuetong said, "The company only has one invitation card. It'll either be Bai Xin or me. Since the boss doesn't want to give it to me, he'll definitely give it to her. Why should I fight over it with her? They'll just say we aren't qualified to enter the party."

Sister Li became furious, "Bai Xin's momentum is reaching a new high while you take such a modest stance. The company's resources are all being taken by her. Even if you don't fight her for it, she'll fight you over your resources. This is the reality of the entertainment circles."

Xiao Xuetong turned silent after listening to this.

"Listen to me. You best act fast!"

…

On the night of that day, Jiang Xiu wore rich clothes to attend the party. No matter whether he bought something for Cheng Lingran or not, he planned to get a few things for his mother. He wanted to make Lin Yueling the most respected woman of this world.

However, Jiang Xiu hadn't expected that the standard of this party would be so high. When he reached there in the car, he saw that there was a red carpet placed and both sides were full of photographers and fans. There was also a signature wall for stars. All of this had left Deity Xiu dumbfounded.
