The Psychopath's Harem

Chapter 159 Chaos In Auction House (1)

?

Su Yanling shuddered at the sound of a voice that was all too familiar to her.

Her eyes remained shut, assuming it must be some kind of otherworldly happening, and let out a profound sigh.

"Why did you stop," she muttered curtly without opening her eyes.

The servant, Mei Ling, appeared hesitant before speaking, her voice trembling, "M-Madam Yanling, do you recognize him?"

Su Yanling was puzzled, furrowing her eyebrows, "Recognize who?"

Mei Ling pointed towards a figure standing before them, her voice barely above a whisper, "Him."

Su Yanling's eyes popped open, and she gasped in disbelief, "Xia Tian?"

Xia Tian yielded the jester's mask from his face and laid it on Mei Ling's head, with guile and humor in his voice, "The one and only."

Su Yanling's heart pumped like a drumstick as she made an effort to keep her composure, "What are you doing here?" she questioned, her voice trembling slightly.

Xia Tian's smile was almost sinister, "Just thought of paying my sugar baby a visit," he sneered, his eyes gleaming with cruelty.

Su Yanling clenched her fists tightly, grinding her teeth, "I am not your baby!" she roared, her voice raised.

Xia Tian chuckled profoundly, "Oh but you were," he said. "And you will be again, whether you like it or not."

Mei Ling watched the exchange with a mix of wonder and confusion, her eyes fixed on the shining light coming from upfront.

Xia Tian's charm was undeniable, and she couldn't help but feel enchanted by his appearance.

"Madam Yanling, what should we do?" she asked, her voice filled with curiosity.

Su Yanling, who knew the truth about Xia Tian, took a deep breath to steady her nerves. She turned to Mei Ling and asked, "Can you go outside?"

Mei Ling furrowed her brow in confusion. "Outside? But why?" she asked, not wanting to miss a moment of Xia Tian's presence.

Su Yanling's eyes widened in alarm as she looked from Xia Tian to Mei Ling. "Move outside, right now!" she commanded urgently.

Mei Ling's heart sank as she realized the gravity of the situation.

She tore her gaze away from Xia Tian and quickly obeyed Su Yanling's orders, her admiration for him temporarily forgotten.

As soon as Mei Ling stepped out of the room, the air seemed to grow still and heavy.

Su Yanling's eyes locked onto Xia Tian's with intense fury, and he met her gaze with a smug smirk.

"What were you saying again?" he taunted, relishing the opportunity to put this woman in her place once and for all.

As Su Yanling stood before him, a wave of nervous tension washed over her like a tidal wave of embarrassment.

She was so startled that she didn't even dare to ask how he managed to bypass her security. Instead, she took a deep breath and slowly lowered herself to the ground, assuming a dogzu position, which made her look like a poodle in distress.

"Daddy, I was wrong," she pleaded, her voice trembling like a leaf in the wind. "Please forgive me."

"Hm?" Xia Tian's brows rose, as he clicked his tongue in annoyance. He was about to punish her, but he couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of his grown-up woman on all fours, begging for forgiveness like a pet.

"Tch, you are forgiven," he said, unable to contain his laughter. 

Su Yanling's ears perked up as she stood up, a genuine smile lighting up her face. "Oh, thank you," she said, showing off her impressing acting skills.

Xia Tian sauntered over to the plush chair where the woman was lazily lounging earlier and sank into it, spreading his body out 

Su Yanling's lips twitched in annoyance, but she held her tongue. 

"Come here," he said suddenly, causing the woman to jump. Su Yanling rolled her eyes and reluctantly made her way over to him. With a swift motion, Xia Tian pulled her down on top of him, causing her heart to race and her cheeks to flush with embarrassment.

Su Yanling's body tensed as she gritted her teeth. The loose green robe she wore offered little comfort as Xia Tian's proximity caused her skin to crawl. "Can I ask why you're here?" she managed to spit out, her eyes narrowing in suspicion.

Xia Tian's eyes roamed over her body before settling back on her face.

A sly smile played on his lips as he thought of his response. "I came here for you," he finally replied, his voice dripping with seduction.

Su Yanling's face turned a deep shade of red as she felt his hands begin to wander. "This isn't the right time or place," she protested, her heart racing with anticipation. 'Are we really going to do it here?'

Xia Tian's hands stilled as he chuckled, sensing her hesitation. "Sure, this can wait," he said, his eyes raking over her body suggestively.

Su Yanling's heart pounded in her chest. This wasn't what she was expecting. "Ummm..." she stammered, her mind racing as she tried to make sense of the situation.

Since Xia Tian didn't respond anymore, Su Yanling didn't dare to suggest anything due to shame and started observing the auction. 'Is he really not going to do anything?' she thought, her mind wandering.

As she peered through the glass wall, her loose robes exposed her ample cleavage, drawing Xia Tian's attention.

His eyes shone with a sharp glint as he compared her to Leng Meihui in terms of breast size.

"How did you manage to hide them?" Xia Tian asked, slightly surprised.

He clearly remembered the first time he saw her, and her breasts were not nearly as large.

"Hide what?" Su Yanling muttered, only realizing his gaze after a moment.

Her face turned awkward as she tried to avoid his probing eyes, not wanting to speak.

But under his intense scrutiny, she was forced to reveal her secret.

Su Yanling retrieved a piece of cloth from her ring, showing it to Xia Tian. "We bought them from a merchant some time ago. It was found in ruins, and according to him, it was useless," she explained.

Xia Tian's gaze narrowed as he examined the cloth.

At first glance, it appeared to be a simple bra, but upon closer inspection, he noticed intricate runic patterns etched into it.

It must have belonged to a complete set of invisible clothing, but it was slightly damaged.

Understanding the complexity of the runes, Xia Tian could see why the merchant thought it was useless. "Do you have a whole set?" he asked curiously.

Su Yanling shook her head. "He was selling it too expensively, so I only bought a single piece for experimentation," she explained, disappointment evident in her voice.

Xia Tian's face twitched in disbelief.

To think she sacrificed buying such a rare treasure for some money.

"You care too much about your money, don't you?" he commented.

Su Yanling nodded in agreement, not seeing anything wrong with her thriftiness.

Xia Tian shook his head without replying, and Su Yanling grew comfortable enough to start talking about her recovery.

As Su Yanling smiled at Xia Tian's question, he couldn't help but notice the way her cheeks dimpled.

She had nearly recovered from her illness, and her breathing had become more steady. But Xia Tian had no interest in hearing about her recovery.

His eyes were fixed on the sword on display, a magnificent weapon laced with jewels, and imbued with an aura of power.

As Su Yanling noticed Xia Tian's distraction, she seized the opportunity to change the topic to the sword.

"It's the Emperor's Blade," she explained." Belonging to the last ruler of the Xuan Family before their demise. Then the Wei and Shen families took over and divided the realm into north and south."

The sword was the main attraction of the auction that day, a rare divine-grade artifact that had sparked the attention of many.

The auction house was packed to the brim, with eager buyers and curious onlookers jostling for space.

Xia Tian's eyes flickered as he scanned the floor. He couldn't help but remark, "There are a lot of idiots here. How are you going to handle them?"

Su Yanling shook her head, smiling. "I won't do anything," she spoke with a glint in her eye. "You will handle them, not me."

"I will?" Xia Tian muttered with an unfazed voice, his eyes narrowed as he stared at the idiotic women.

What made her believe he would take care of her troubles? Xia Tian wondered.

Su Yanling pouted and said, "What? You only want to feast on me!? At least give me some benefits!" She tried to pull Xia Tian into the lobby.

Xia Tian's gaze once again swept across the floor, and he nodded. "That is fine," he agreed with her.

"You are agreeing?" Su Yanling looked at him in surprise, her eyes widening.

"Yup, I would love to beat some idiots in my free time," he nodded, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips.

Su Yanling's became excited, as her face blossomed into a smile, unaware that Xia Tian had already decided on the price for it, and she was going to pay it real soon.
