章節 277: The Auction

It was here. The day of the auction at the Ross Estate.

But before that, let's rewind time a bit.

Soon after all of us had beaten the fourth floor's Gatekeeper, including the girls who had started on the third floor, Shi Yan had returned. His buddies were pretty excited to see him back, but the girls with me weren't exactly thrilled, with the exception of Xiang Peng, who was happy because he achieved results and gained valuable information for us.

Xiang Peng...truly a terrifying girl.

Shi Yan and her had obviously spoken privately beforehand already, before he met up with the rest of us. That was also why Xiang Peng took another bathroom break a little before Shi Yan grouped up with the rest of us - the same excuse as before, but...well, I guess it was a valid one.

In any case, when she came back, our eyes met, and I immediately knew that she wanted to talk to me later, when we were alone. That time, was now.
