After the last woman on stage was led down, the emcee stepped onto the platform, his face glowing with satisfaction. Today’s business was good, and since he could promote each woman, the commission would be quite substantial. The Fourth Master was always generous, so he would work even harder to describe these won as desirable as possible.
"This woman’s background is extraordinary. She cos from the distant East, with dark, large eyes. In the East, people call her the Military Advisor, with a mind comparable to Zhuge Liang. She is knowledgeable about astronomy and geography. Bringing such a woman ho guarantees you a flow of fortune."
"Eastern woman, does she have a big chest?" soone shouted from below, sparking laughter from others.
"We have enough money already; what use do we have for such a smart woman? Can she even have children?"
Xiao Lin glanced at the n shouting below, and a murderous intent instantly flared. Those who insulted the Military Advisor deserved to die.
After waiting for the people below to finish clamoring, the emcee continued his introduction: "This Military Advisor possesses the mysterious traits of Eastern people, with beautiful black hair and enchanting eyes that can captivate one’s soul. Her petite mouth, and even more irresistible figure, would make any man desire her. Even soone like , who is past my pri, can’t help but want to have a go, hahaha!"
The emcee’s bold words once again stirred the excitent below. The curiosity about this woman known as the Military Advisor grew, urging them to bring her on stage. The clever emcee, sensing the right mont, waved his hand, and a pair of small feet made an appearance.
Sleek skin, white and bright, toes painted with black nail polish lightly touched the ground before quickly retreating, as if sothing on the floor might bite them.
The audience held their breath, eyes fixed on the curtain.
"Let us welco the beautiful Military Advisor to the stage," the emcee shouted again from the side.
A foot extended from behind the curtain, followed by a calf like a white lotus root, its graceful lines making the n audibly gasp. Under the yellow light, her skin looked as if it was lifted from the water.
No one dared to speak loudly; they all anticipated seeing the owner of these feet, while Xiao Lin held his breath standing aside. How long has it been since he last saw the Military Advisor? From a man’s perspective, he was also one of them, having unspoken desires for beautiful things, though they remained within the realm of imagination.
A pair of slender fingers erged from behind the curtain, with long black hair cascading over exposed shoulders. A lon-seed face appeared before the n’s eyes, dark eyes lightly scanning the platform, slight frowns revealing dissatisfaction with the crowd below. Her red lips curled as she lifted fingers to tuck her bangs behind her ear, accidentally revealing her entire face, prompting waves of whistles from the crowd.
This woman was stunning, possessing an audacity and allure uncommon among Easterners, combined with a faint elegance that made one hesitate to desecrate, yet she was not purely angelic. She had an allure like a Ghost, and from ti to ti a fierce and unyielding aura flickered in her eyes.
Such a woman needed to be conquered. It was as if her every move silently challenged, asking who would co to conquer her. Although she stood there, motionless, her charm was irresistible.
The n began to go mad over her!
"Lian!" Xiao Lin murmured softly, a na only he could hear. Seeing the Military Advisor again, unexpectedly under such circumstances.
The woman glanced around with her captivating eyes, rely observing the n below coldly as if none of this concerned her, her chin lifted high, listening to the frenetic bidding. As numbers poured into her ears, she showed a slight reaction.
"Sir!" A black man couldn’t help but be impressed by the woman on stage. "You should take a look at this woman."
Hassan rose from his furs, picking up binoculars. Through the lens, as their eyes t, Hassan grinned. Indeed, such a woman was a rare gem: "What’s the current bid?"
"Fifteen million!"
"Thirty million!" The black man typed a number on the keypad, and a new bid flashed on the screen.
"Sir, soone outbid us with a higher price."
"Oh?" Hassan was intrigued as he stood up from his chair. There seed to be few who could outbid that price, and he was eager to know who dared to spend so extravagantly.
The emcee on stage was all smiles, eyes crinkled like the Moon in the sky: "Is there a bid higher than forty million?" With a ten percent commission, he would earn millions from just one sale. Imagining this, the emcee could barely refrain from striking the gavel right away.
Forty million, huh? Xiao Lin stood by, musing, while the crowd below erupted in whispers of disbelief. For them, this was a sky-high price.
"Forty million, second call!" The emcee raised the gavel in his hand: "Soone bid fifty million!" With this new bid appearing, Xiao Lin couldn’t help but lift his head towards the main hall.
Hassan accustodly donned his white robe, binoculars in hand, searching for the mysterious high bidder.
That person is in the main building, there’s no doubt about it. The electronic transmission rate can only be afforded by soone within the main building area. Under the bright lights, only Hassan’s figure is visible. Xiao Lin changed his angle of observation towards the main building, and all along, he saw only two figures.
He hesitated for a mont and then turned to the Military Advisor. Her beautiful eyes t his, inciting an urge to call out. However, those beautiful eyes turned away, looking at him as if he were a stranger, without any emotion. Was this what Night Eagle ant when saying the current Military Advisor is not the original one? Did she no longer recognize him?
"Fifty million, second ti!" The auctioneer called out the price loudly once more, and people’s heads began turning, searching for the wealthy bidder.
Standing high above, Hassan gazed outwards. He wasn’t very interested in competing at such prices: "Let’s pack and leave!"
"Fifty million, third ti! Sold."
The Military Advisor was thus sold for fifty million to a mysterious figure. Xiao Lin, amidst the chaos, tried to take the stage but was stopped.
"General, now is not the ti." The speaker was Miao Shaoqing, who had sohow already appeared behind Xiao Lin. "Look up to the right."
Following Miao Shaoqing’s hint, Xiao Lin glanced upwards. A reflected light flickered before him; it was a sniper, the light source reflected off his lens.
"There are snipers like this all around here. Any reckless move will get you riddled with bullets."
The Military Advisor was already being led into the main building, her long hair elegantly swaying behind her. Watching her back, Xiao Lin clenched his fists tightly: "Military Advisor, she..."
"General, this is a trap." Miao Shaoqing candidly voiced his suspicion. Perhaps the onlookers see more clearly than the parties involved. Miao Shaoqing understood Xiao Lin’s confusion well. If it were him, he wouldn’t have waited until the last mont; he would have acted as soon as the Military Advisor took the stage. He added, "Since the other party knows her identity, they undoubtedly want to draw out Dragon Soul. If we rashly reveal ourselves now, we’ll only fall into their trap."
"Do you have a better plan?" Xiao Lin closed his eyes, afraid to imagine the Military Advisor becoming another man’s trophy. He had to get her out before that happened, without any need for discussion.
"Just now during the chaos, Hua Qingyi already got Night Eagle into a car. Now we must leave first and then find a way to rescue them."
"Impossible!" Xiao Lin imdiately rejected Miao Shaoqing’s suggestion. This opportunity was unique; he couldn’t waste it.
"General, in terms of firepower and manpower, this is not the best mont." Miao Shaoqing’s tone intensified.
"You take Night Eagle back and notify Dragon Soul for support." Xiao Lin smiled at the main building in front of him: "Fourth Master must be eliminated."
"It’s too dangerous. I’ll stay." Miao Shaoqing was sowhat anxious!
"No way!" Xiao Lin’s tone was very firm.
"General, the old man said we must ensure the General’s safety." Miao Shaoqing did not elaborate further. Xiao Lin fell silent, eventually speaking softly: "I have already planted explosives near the base depot, just in case."
"There’s only one way in and out of the main building. It’s backed by a mountain, but there’s another way to circle up. However, you have to go through a temporary drainage channel, and the environnt is a bit dirty."
"Go!" Xiao Lin said, then left directly.
Gradually people erged from the main building. So were accompanied by beautiful won, while others left empty-handed. After Hua Qingyi got Night Eagle into Hassan’s business car, he hid in the back seat, still holding that thin scalpel, ready to strike at any mont.
The African man opened the car door for Hassan, then circled around to the driver’s seat and slowly started the car.
"Have you found out who it is?" Hassan massaged his brow. This evening had been sowhat dull. Watching the Eastern woman he was about to acquire get taken away left him a bit frustrated. The other party was the Military Advisor; if he could take her back, he wouldn’t worry about finding the Military Doctor. As for the woman herself, he wasn’t genuinely interested.
"No!" The African man turned the steering wheel, driving along with the traffic outside: "But I’ve heard that this Military Advisor has never been taken out of the base before. I just think..."
"African man, speak your mind."
"I just think this is likely a plot by Fourth Master. Perhaps he never intended to sell this woman." Hua Qingyi glanced several tis at the African man in surprise. Who knew a servant could have such a brain? Just uncertain about how things stood on his brother’s end; given his temperant, he would not let the matter rest. (To be continued.
