138: Chapter 138: First Entry into the Auction House 138: Chapter 138: First Entry into the Auction House Su Ran dared not let her tag along. If she happened to see him selling the golden Pet Egg later, it would surely cause a commotion. “You! How can you refuse a beauty’s company to the auction house?” The cutie was incredulous, her entire worldview seemed to be overturned. “Who knows if you’re really a beauty, covering your face all day with a white veil as if people are dying to look at it,” Su Ran snorted. “You, haven’t you seen the beauty rankings? I rank in the top three~” The cutie chuckled, a proud smile on her face, waiting for Su Ran’s humiliation. “Tsk, so what? It’s not like it’s edible,” Su Ran shrugged. He couldn’t understand women. Did a bit more beauty make them feel superior? But that really was reality. Not they could be blamed though, men had put them on a pedestal. “You, you!” The cutie stomped her foot in anger. “You’re not a real man!” “Thanks for the compliment, at least I won’t need to worry about peeing. Go on, no need to see you out!” Su Ran waved his hand, signaling her to leave. “Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained!” The cutie was nearly driven mad by Su Ran. She found out now that he was unreasonable and lacked any gentlemanly manners. “Keep it down. It’s okay for you to yell at me, but it wouldn’t be good if you scare the pedestrians outside.” Defeated by Su Ran, the cutie sat back in her original spot. “Hey, didn’t I tell you to buzz off? Why are you sitting down again?” Su Ran was puzzled. What was wrong with this girl? He had given her the boot yet she kept sitting there. Did he have to spell it out for her? “When did you say that?” The cutie tilted her head, purposely tormenting Su Ran. “I’m going to the auction house too, it’s on the way.” Su Ran was speechless. There was no way out, stubbornness was a girl’s nature and this tactic was invincible. “Hey, Overturning Water, may I see what you look like?” The cutie curiously asked. “Wearing a mask all the time, isn’t it suffocating?” Without waiting for Su Ran’s answer, the cutie continued: “I bet you’re really ugly and afraid that it would ruin the game’s aesthetics, right?” “No, I wear a mask because my face is skin and bones,” Su Ran answered. His face was a skull, one look and you’d be scared to death. “A skinny guy, huh!” The cutie imagined what Su Ran might look like. Her mind filled with images of a vile, skinny character and it startled her. “Never mind, don’t want to look, even thinking about it makes me nauseous.” Su Ran ignored her and was the first one out the door. The cutie followed closely behind, afraid Su Ran would leave her behind. However, once outside, Su Ran paused. “Hey, Overturning Water, what’s up?” The cutie was increasingly bewildered by Su Ran’s actions. “You lead the way, I don’t know the way.” “You!” The cutie was taken aback, and a dark cloud formed over her head. With the cutie leading the way, Su Ran finally reached the entrance of the auction house. The building was quite unassuming, with an old facade and a simple ambiance, but it had an unassailable dignity. “Oh, hello there, are you here to buy or sell?” A skinny young man greeted Su Ran as they entered the auction house, a friendly smile on his face. “Hey, Overturning Water, is this what you look like?” The cutie seemed possessed, associating Su Ran with every skinny person she saw, and asked. “Think what you want,” Su Ran said dismissively. He asked the skinny NPC, “How does selling work?” “Why sir, you seem to be new here, is this your first time?” The skinny man chuckled, “I’m Chu Zhongtian. If you’re selling, please follow me.” “Oh? What a big name,” Su Ran nodded in approval, “Brother-chick-Cough, I mean, Brother Chu, let’s talk elsewhere.” Once the cutie was out of sight, Su Ran pulled out an object and flashed it quickly. Chu Zhongtian, stunned, anxiously asked, “Sir, are you really planning to sell this?” “That’s the idea.” “Sir, please follow me to the VIP room on the second floor.” Chu Zhongtian whispered, then walked over to the cutie, “My lady, please wait in the rest area.” Su Ran nodded in approval. A sly one, this guy, even made sure to steer the cutie away. “Overturning Water, wait for me!” Seeing Su Ran heading upstairs, the cutie was very curious. She was particularly eager to know what Su Ran was selling that warranted access to the VIP room on the second floor. Unfortunately, Su Ran seemed not to have heard her. He didn’t stop, and quickly stepped into the VIP room. The cutie was impatient but was prevented from following by Chu Zhongtian, she could only give up. Suddenly, sitting in the resting room, the cutie saw a female player wearing Red Chainmail Armour enter. The woman’s face was hidden under a helmet, and even the heavy chainmail couldn’t hide her graceful figure. “Hi, Siying!” The cutie was overwhelmed with joy, waving her arms at the female player. The female warrior, hearing the call, turned around to look, her eyes lighting up. She walked briskly towards the cutie. If Su Ran were here, he would have recognized her. It was his unforgettable classmate, Han Siying. “Wow, Sister Wan’er, what are you doing here?” Han Siying was pleasantly surprised, her normally frosty features melted. She came over to the cutie, reached for her hand, and said with a smile, “It’s been a while since we sisters had a heart-to-heart. We’ve all been so busy with the game!” “I know, right! FYI, for a while, I’ll stay at grandpa’s place, as you know.” The cutie, also known as Li Wan’er, said with a laugh, “Siying, come over when you find the time!” “Definitely! After I’m done with my university entrance exam, I’ll have plenty of time. Recently, I’ve been as busy as a dog. The damned Game of Gods and Demons is even opening full-time. I feel like dropping out!” Han Siying frowned and ranted. “Siying, that’s where you’re wrong. As good as the game is, studying is most important. The university entrance exam is a checkpoint to success. The losers and winners are determined by it. It’s just common sense.” Li Wan’er advised earnestly, “Education is the glory of a lifetime. Searᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Siying, don’t give up. What you need to do now is study harder, work harder.” “But, Sister Wan’er, the third year of high school is so tight on time, I’m falling behind on the game. It’s really troublesome…” Han Siying looked troubled and confided her woes. “No buts, the game is just a temporary product. It will be updated and replaced sooner or later. Unlike knowledge, knowledge determines fate. This life’s fate, if you want to change, you have to study hard.” Li Wan’er seemed to be reminiscing about her past, her mind wandering. “Okay, okay, Sister Wan’er. You’re as verbose as ever. I, your humble servant, have learned my lesson~” Han Siying shook Li Wan’er’s arm and pleaded. “By the way, Siying, why are you at the auction house?” Li Wan’er asked, puzzled. With time being so tight, why wouldn’t she level up instead of wandering to the auction house? “Sister Wan’er, do you know about the Rebirth Gate?” Han Siying pondered for a moment and asked Li Wan’er back.
