The sudden introduction of Fenghuang Niao had been a good distraction from a possibly tense scenario. It had stopped Yun Chuhan's attempts entirely and left her standing alone in confusion, not knowing if she should follow or walk away.
She turned and saw a few socialites whispering and laughing among themselves. Suddenly feeling insecure that they might be gossiping about her, she hurried away more embarrassed than she had been before.
Yun Xi gave Fenghuang Niao a gratitude-filled nod. Once Yun Chuhan had left the pair alone and they had exchanged a few words with Fenghuang Niao, she darted back into the crowd, maintaining a low profile.
The Jiang family heads had come to the event with Jiang Chenghuan, and their appearance had drawn the attention of many auction-goers. Many of them respected Yun Xi's ability to connect with many elite families and many more were green with envy.
