Chapter 1361: Chapter 1361

"General Manager, you can’t really blame me for this! It’s the rule we set, starting at one yuan, and that old guy used some kind of sorcery to cause accidents for those competing with him."

Han Mo looked at the General Manager with grievance, "No one participated in the bidding, so naturally the price couldn’t go up. To sell at a good price, we must deal with that person."

"Hmph, I’ve already investigated. This person is Bai Hua, a real estate businessman from Jiangdong, just your average wealthy individual with no special background."

The General Manager snorted coldly, with a murderous glint in his eyes.

"So what do you intend to do?"

Han Mo looked uncertainly at the General Manager.

"Send someone to bring him out and give him a good lesson. You continue to host the auction."

The General Manager squinted his eyes, warning coldly: "The next auction must raise the price for me, or I’ll have your hide."

"Alright, alright, as long as that person doesn’t participate in the bidding, I can definitely make the auction lively."

Han Mo nodded repeatedly, promising emphatically.

"Damn bastard dares to violate the major taboo of my Sun and Moon Group. I will never let him off."

The General Manager cursed between gritted teeth.

Just as Tang Ming was closing his eyes for a rest and Bai Feifei was feeling tense and uneasy, several staff members in uniforms approached them.

"Mr. Bai, our manager invites you to the inner hall for an important discussion."

The receptionist who had previously attended to Tang Ming smiled and invited them.

"Now? I still want to attend the auction, wouldn’t it be inappropriate?"

Tang Ming opened his eyes and responded unhappily.

"Rest assured, the auction will continue once you return."

The receptionist smiled slightly and explained: "After all, you’ve purchased so many female martial artists, we need to handle some formalities, otherwise we won’t be able to process it."

"Alright then, we’ll go with you."

Tang Ming thought for a moment, getting up and pulling Bai Feifei along with him.

Tang Ming and Bai Feifei had just left the venue when the model on stage stepped down again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for waiting, our auction will continue."

Han Mo returned to the stage and, noticing Tang Ming was not in the venue, immediately announced loudly: "The next item up for auction is a twenty-two-year-old Five-star Martial Artist, an absolute beauty."

The spotlight then shone on a pale-faced long-haired beauty in training clothes.

The audience erupted in exclamations; such a beauty, and a Five-star Martial Artist to boot, it would be extremely gratifying to bring her home!

"Starting bid at one yuan, the auction begins."

Han Mo smiled with satisfaction and announced loudly.

For a moment, no one bid, all afraid that Tang Ming would intervene again.

"One hundred thousand."

After hesitating for a moment and not seeing any sign of Tang Ming, someone timidly raised a paddle and called out.

The shill arranged by the Sun and Moon Group, knowing Tang Ming had been removed, immediately raised a paddle and shouted loudly: "Last time I was holding back, but this time I must get this beauty."

"I’ll go with five million."

Seeing that nothing happened to the two bidders, the audience immediately burst into excitement and started to bid fervently.

This group had been stifled, and now they could bid recklessly, everyone was eager to make a splash.

"Twenty million, going thrice, sold."

The final price landed at twenty million, and Han Mo couldn’t keep the grin off his face. Without Tang Ming causing trouble, the auction went too smoothly.

Tang Ming and Bai Feifei were taken out of the venue, and just as they stepped outside, the receptionist, who had greeted them warmly before, pulled a stern face and surrounded them with other men in black.

Bai Feifei nervously clung to Tang Ming’s arm, but Tang Ming pretended not to notice.

The group took Tang Ming to an office at the back of the venue, where the previously seen General Manager sat smoking in an office chair.

Seeing Tang Ming and Bai Feifei enter, the General Manager sneered: "Bai Hua, you have a lot of nerve causing trouble at our Sun and Moon Group?"

Tang Ming looked at the General Manager with confusion.

"I am Hu Lie, the General Manager of the Sun and Moon Group, and the person in charge of this auction."

Hu Lie took a drag of his cigarette and introduced himself proudly.

"So you’re the one in charge."

Upon hearing this, Bai Feifei’s eyes turned red as she glared at Hu Lie, thinking that this was the culprit behind the calamity at the Heavenly Cloud Palace?

Tang Ming pulled Bai Feifei back and subtly shook his head, knowing that the General Manager of the Sun and Moon Group couldn’t be responsible for such a big operation, there must be someone behind him.

"Pretty young lady, isn’t she?"

Hu Lie’s gaze lingered on Bai Feifei, "You seem to have quite an opinion about me, but that’s alright, neither of you will make it out of this door tonight, and you can just let me enjoy myself."

"Manager Hu, what do you mean by this?"

Tang Ming touched his fake mustache on his face, looking at Hu Lie blankly.

"What do I mean? You disrupted the auction order of my Sun and Moon Group and still have the face to ask what I mean?"

Hu Lie ground his teeth as he stared at Tang Ming: "A mere real estate businessman daring to provoke us, who gave you the courage?"

"I don’t understand what you’re talking about. I was just participating in the auction properly, how did it become a provocation?"

Tang Ming looked at Hu Lie with confusion.

"Still playing dumb, you’re happy having bought so many low-level martial artists with just one yuan?"

Hu Lie slammed the table, shouting angrily.

"A starting price of one yuan, set by the Sun and Moon Group, was a legitimate bid, why wouldn’t it be allowed?"

Tang Ming protested defiantly.

"Do you... do you dare say the people who fainted and vomited blood have nothing to do with you?"

Hu Lie fell silent and quickly changed the topic.

"Their situations have nothing to do with me in the first place."

Tang Ming shrugged, speaking with confidence: "I’m so far away from them, even if I wanted to do something, I wouldn’t have the capability."

"Enough nonsense, in any case, I am now revoking your qualification to participate in the auction."

Hu Lie forcefully extinguished the cigarette, speaking coldly: "And then you’ll get lost immediately."

Tang Ming exclaimed in shock.

"Simply because I am the General Manager of the Sun and Moon Group."

Hu Lie looked at Tang Ming with dominance.

"I... then give me the women I bought."

Tang Ming reluctantly voiced his demand.

"Heh, still want the people, dream on!"

Hu Lie sneered: "Your bid didn’t comply with regulations, it’s invalid."

"Bastards, you’re taking bullying too far."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ming flew into a rage at once.

"So what if I bully you? Do you believe I can make both of you disappear from this world?"

Hu Lie stood up slowly, sizing up Tang Ming and Bai Feifei with a malicious gaze: "Men, throw this old thing out and strip the little chick and bring her to my room."
