Towards Mo-laoban's question, Nuo'er's blinks her eyes, as she thought—
(...What do I do? How do I even answer this? Long-shao killed her twice, elder sister is definitely looking to get even...)
Turning her head in thought quickly, Nuo'er answers—
"Elder sister, let's not be in a rush to search for him. Shouldn't you be focusing your attention on the upcoming auction?"
Raising a chuckle, Mo-laoban answers—
"The funny thing is this is actually related to the auction."
"...What even led to you two fighting in the first place?"
"A 100-year-old cold spirit ore was set to appear on the auction, he stole that from me. That's quite a slap in the face for my restaurant's reputation, don't you think?"
"Un..."
Nodding subtly, Nuo'er thought—
(Long-shao, you really are daring. To even think of stealing from elder sister—not to mention succeeding at it, this grudge has definitely seeped into the bones.)
Just as Nuo'er is thinking of this, Mo-laoban continues to say—
"I was thinking of having that cold spirit ore be turned into a flute when I saw it for the first time. That being the case, I planned to offer the original seller a high sum for it. However, that's no longer an option now that it's out of my hands."
With every word said, the more irritated Mo-laoban becomes, causing Nuo'er to be unable to formulate any words to reply with.
*Kon, kon...* the door of the room is knocked upon, disrupting the awkward mood.
"Enter."
With permission granted, a worker dressed in a red qipao enters, to report—
"Mo-laoban, a person just came in to register a vast number of treasures for the auction."
"How much exactly?"
"It's probably enough to fill a truck."
"Oh?"
Surprise is rather evident on Mo-laoban's face, as she asks—
"Did they say who they are?"
"They said, they're surnamed Zhen."
"Which zhen?"
"They didn't specify."
If zhen is mentioned as a surname, the first one to come to mind for both Nuo'er and Mo-laoban is Zhen Qing Huai. However, there's no reason for Zhen Qing Huai to come here.
Narrowing her eyes with a frown, Mo-laoban says—
"Describe their appearance to me."
"They have a beauty mark near their right eye. Also, long black hair that is tied into a tail."
"Anything else?"
"He has a maid with him."
Hearing the first two descriptions, Nuo'er had just about crossed Long Hua's name off as this individual's identity, but hearing this individual to be accompanied by a maid—
(That's definitely Long-shao... Enemies meet on a narrow road, as they say...)
"Hmm, most probably a Sinner who made it into the ruins' main treasury."
Nodding her head to this, the worker replies—
"That's what Zhou Jin is thinking of as well. We're wondering if we should give him a VIP membership card since they'll most likely return."
