Chapter 22 - Chapter 22 She's Alive

Just then two boxes were brought out, this made everyone curious. People murmured to themselves on what could be the content in the box. From the way people reacted Ding Xian was sure that this one wasn't going to be as simple and easy as the last one but just as the woman was about to introduce the item someone interrupted her, the person whispered softly into her ear and the woman nodded in agreement.

"Sorry everyone..but we have to keep this one aside for now because we have something more tempting" the woman said smiling maliciously and a girl whose eyes were blindfolded was brought to the stage.

"We've got a damsel... she's ready to do anything you want. She's a really pretty one you see" the woman on stage said as she held the girls chin.

"Mum is this allowed?" Ding Xi'an asked her cold eyes fixee sternly on the woman on stage.

"Anything is allowed XianXian and no human is brought her without the consent of the person. She must have willingly done this" Yu Yan explained softly, she also had a little bit of pity for the young girl. She must have been going through a lot to make this decision.

"200,000 yuan" a voice yelled out

"200,000 Yuan going" the woman repeated smiling and waiting for more people to bait

"300,00 yuan" another man said and the woman also repates waiting to see more people bait.

Ding Xi'an kept her eyes glued to the girl, she looked scared and timid. If she couldn't do it why did she make such a decision? Her face looked somewhat familiar and she tried so hard to recall but she didn't have a single idea where she had seen such a face. Though she couldn't see the girls eyes she felt a strong feeling in her, that told her that she had met her before."

"400,000 Yuan " the amount kept coming and Ding Xi'an could not stop being amazed at how desperate everyone was.

Meanwhile in that same room where the auction was taking place, there were some men taking shots and watching the show from upstairs.

"She really is a gem don't you think Lu Yichen" Su Cheng Feng asked looking lustfully at the girl in the TV.

"Don't drag Lu Yichen into your dirty thoughts" Song Ziqi one of the men in the room spoke up and threw something at Su Cheng Feng.

"Do you always have to be so violent?" Su Cheng Feng asked angrily.

"You were distracting me.. I had to shut you up"

"Distraction?" Su Cheng Feng scoffed." Do you want her Lu Yichen just say yes and I'll get her for you"

But Lu Yichen was busy with his phone and he didn't even take a single glimpse at the TV and Su Cheng Feng was annoyed by this.

" Why do always act like this? Is it because of her? She dies many centuries ago why don't you just move on..I mean she must have also moved on wherever she is right now" Su Cheng Spoke out angrily and the remaining men in the room stared at him pitifully. Did he somehow forget who he was talking to? 

But surprisingly Lu Yichen took the matter lighly and gave a calm reply" she's alive" and Su Cheng Feng spat out the drink in his mouth

"What? Who told you that?" Sure Cheng Feng asked confused and curious.

"It doesn't matter...if you want the girl you can go get her for yourself. I'm not interested" Lu Yichen replied but all this while he spoke his gaze never left the phone and after much hesitation Su Cheng Feng left the room.

"Hmph...of course he would surely go" Song Ziqi spoke up and returned to his game.

Ding Xian had not stop thinking were she has seen the girl before. She wished she could do something but the amount was already too high for her to interfere.

"700,000 yuan" someone said and everyone in the room gasped and stated at the ugly chubby man who had a evil dirty smile all over his face and Ding Xian felt disgusted by looking at him alone not to talk of having anything with the man. How was the girl going to do it?

The woman repeated the price and waited for another person but the whole room was quiet. It seemed like this is a deadend, Ding Xian said to herself.

"2,000,000 yuan" a voice spoke up from behind
