Bab 1125: 1124 Vanished into thin air

After the auction item was won, it would usually not be handed directly to the buyer. Instead, it would be placed in the auction room at the back. Only after the buyer had paid the full amount could the treasure be taken away.

 Shen Jing had come to pay the money, but as soon as she and Mother Tao entered the house, they saw the servants of the Tao family running out in a panic.

 "Madam! The bracelets and earrings in the box are gone," said the servant, Ah Ju.

 "What?" Mrs. Tao didn't understand what she was saying. "Speak clearly. What's missing?"

 Ah Ju swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "The thing that this lady took is gone! Just now, we were about to open the box to check the auction item, but as soon as we opened it, we found that the two bracelets and two earrings inside were gone. Now there's only a necklace left."
