64: Chapter 64: Banquet—Demon Addiction 64: Chapter 64: Banquet—Demon Addiction Luo Shiqi quickly reacted, raising her bidding paddle even though she didn’t understand why Ye Shikai had become like this, but she discerned from his words that it was because of the stone. “Miss Luo bids five hundred thousand, is there anyone else who would like to follow?” Luo Shiqi suddenly lifted her paddle, breaking the silence of the venue. The host had thought this stone would be passed in, but unexpectedly Luo Shiqi placed a bid. Although not knowing the reason, the host dared not to neglect her, since she is the boss, after all. As soon as the host stopped speaking, the crowd began to stir, turning their heads in surprise to look at Luo Shiqi. She had spent a billion on a pendant earlier, and now she was bidding five hundred thousand for a stone. After some commotion, the venue quieted down again. Since it wasn’t their concern, let Luo Shiqi have it if she wanted it. “Five hundred thousand once, five hundred thousand twice, wait a second, Miss Su bids five million and five hundred thousand.” To everyone’s astonishment, Su Qingyu also raised her bidding paddle. She was actually competing with Luo Shiqi. The event was boiling over now. The stone that was deemed worthless in their eyes was now being contested by two stunningly beautiful women, which made them wonder if they had missed something truly mysterious about the stone. “Miss Su, what are you... doing?” Luo Shiqi was on the verge of cursing. Why had Su Qingyu suddenly increased the bid? Was she trying to compete with her for it? “Miss Luo, Ye Shikai is my younger sister’s boyfriend. Since he wants this stone, of course I should buy it,” Su Qingyu said with some pride. She was implying that Ye Shikai belonged to her family, so why was this outsider, Luo Shiqi, interfering? “I am very good friends with Ye Shikai, and since he wants this stone, I must get it,” Luo Shiqi declared determinedly, her gaze filled with resolve. Without waiting for Su Qingyu to respond, she raised her paddle again. “Six million, Miss Luo raises the bid again, it’s now six million. Is there anyone else who would like to raise?” Luo Shiqi increased the bid once more, surprising everyone again. The noise in the venue was growing louder, and it seemed that she was determined to win whatever the cost. But how could Su Qingyu just give in? Luo Shiqi’s words just now had been a blatant confession to Ye Shikai. Su Qingyu raised her paddle without hesitation, “Miss Luo is too courteous. I’ll pay for the stone; it would be too much trouble if he owed you a favor.” Su Qingyu spoke politely, but her implication was clear. Luo Shiqi, being a smart woman, would understand. Saying it was about owing a favor was actually a reminder to Luo Shiqi that she’s just his friend, not his lover. “Six million and five hundred thousand, Miss Su raises the bid.” The host nearly shouted, not because of the high price of the item, but because such a stone had actually sparked a frantic competition between two goddesses. “I mean... can the two of you stop fighting for a moment?” At this time, Ye Shikai managed to speak with difficulty, enduring the pain in his chest. These two women were busy fighting with jealousy, leaving him here to suffer. Had they ever considered his feelings... Both women suddenly realized that they seemed to have forgotten about Ye Shikai... Seeing him in so much pain that he was dripping with sweat, they began to panic. Luo Shiqi raised her bid sign high again and glared fiercely at Su Qingyu. “Miss Luo bids seven million, is there anyone else who wants to raise the price?” The host was clearly addressing Su Qingyu. At this point, the stone was only being contested by these two women. Su Qingyu was about to place another bid, but Ye Shikai stretched out his hand, took hold of Su Qingyu’s wrist, and shook his head at her. If these two ladies continued like this, he was afraid he would die in agony. Ye Shikai circulated his Inner Strength, trying to alleviate the pain in his chest, but it clashed with the mysterious energy in his body, and for a moment, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, bone-chillingly cold, and yet as if he was being roasted on a fire, unbearably hot. His body began to tremble uncontrollably, which puzzled Ye Shikai even more since the energy usually stayed quietly within his body. Now, why had it become so restless? “Seven million for the first time, seven million for the second time, sold.” With a final strike of the gavel, the host concluded the sale. The attendants wrapped up the stone and handed it over to Luo Shiqi. Ye Shikai couldn’t stop trembling, scaring the nearby Su Ziqing and Zhuang Yan out of their wits. If only he had the strength, he’d have snatched it right away. The packaged stone was delivered to Luo Shiqi, and Ye Shikai watched intently, his eyes turning blood red. “Give it to me...give it to me now.” Ye Shikai snatched the stone from Luo Shiqi’s hand without any courtesy, tore open the packaging forcefully, and finally got his hands on it. The moment the stone touched his palm, Ye Shikai felt a stream of energy pouring endlessly into his body, and the pain in his chest vanished instantly. It was like having a bucket of ice water poured over his head in the scorching heat of summer. “Feels... good.” Ye Shikai gasped lightly; if the stone had been a drug, his behavior was undoubtedly that of an addict. The women around him, seeing Ye Shikai gradually returning to normal and the agony on his face fading, finally breathed a sigh of relief. “Ye Shikai, how are you feeling, is there any discomfort?” Luo Shiqi placed her hand on her chest, her face full of concern, her expression showing that his recent behavior truly frightened her. “Brother-in-law... dear, are you feeling better?” Su Ziqing, out of sheer urgency, almost blurted out “brother-in-law” and was clearly still not accustomed to the term “dear.” She also glanced at Su Qingyu guiltily; after all, he was her brother-in-law, and it was indeed unsettling to call him “dear” in front of her sister. It seemed that Su Ziqing was still very afraid of her sister. “I’m...I’m alright now.” Ye Shikai took out a tissue, wiped the sweat from his face, and told everyone. He looked at the stone in his hand, which was glowing with a pale purple light, still curious about what exactly it was. He felt a familiar sensation, as if he had seen it somewhere before. Just then, Ye Shikai experienced a sharp pain in his chest and a sudden intense headache. The energy from the stone that had entered his body had now assimilated with the mysterious energy within him. In an instant, the internal energy swelled dramatically, forcefully suppressing his own Inner Strength, his eyes turning blood-red. Ye Shikai cried out in shock, not good, the Demon Addiction is about to flare up.
