Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 2231: Chapter 2231: How Long Should I Wait?

Ye Haochuan had long since weathered many storms, so he wouldn’t easily give himself away in such a setting.

Zhu Shen observed for a long time but still found nothing. He finally laughed awkwardly and said, "Ye, that was just some banter from Yours Truly Zhu earlier, don’t take it to heart. If Brother Ye truly can’t fork out the sixty million, I could chip in to help you."

"That won’t be necessary!" Ye Haochuan chuckled.

"Oh?" Zhu Shen was surprised, "Brother Ye, could you be a hidden tycoon?"

"I wouldn’t call myself a tycoon. I just have a few small industries under my name, not worth mentioning compared to Young Master Zhu!" Ye Haochuan laughed.

Zhu Shen smiled slightly, didn’t speak further, and moved aside to give Ye Haochuan the bidding position.

At this bidding position, there is a transparent orb the size of a palm. When bidding, Flower Energy is infused into it, making the sound audible outside. Without this orb, even if the room is in chaos, there would be no sound heard outside.

At this moment, the bidding price for Le Yao had astonishingly reached eighty million.

Ye Haochuan originally thought, given Zhu Shen’s status, he could at least intimidate some troublemakers, keeping the price from skyrocketing. But surprisingly, it didn’t work, as if his name was unheard of.

Ye Haochuan didn’t dwell on that, quickly shifting his attention back to the auction.

At eighty million, Bao Shixing and Gou Heiya also seemed to be at their limits, offering meek bids, only increasing by a few million each time.

"Ninety million!" Ye Haochuan called out a price again, raising it by ten million.

"Damn, who is in Box Thirteen? Daring to compete with grandpa, courting death huh?" Bao Shixing shouted angrily.

This time, Gou Heiya also remarkably stood with Bao Shixing, shouting, "Box Thirteen, if you have the guts come out, I want to see which young master can afford so many red crystals for a maid!"

Ye Haochuan suddenly looked at Zhu Shen curiously, his expression strange.

From the attitude of the elder towards Zhu Shen when entering, Zhu Shen should have a notable status in Qianyun City. Why are these people so disrespectful?

Zhu Shen seemed to understand Ye Haochuan’s thoughts, smiled slightly and said, "I’m generally quite low-key, so it’s inevitable to be underestimated, make Brother Ye laugh!"

Ye Haochuan gave Zhu Shen a meaningful glance, feeling that Zhu Shen was somewhat mysterious, definitely not a simple character.

"If you have money keep bidding, if not stop talking nonsense and go away!"

Ye Haochuan shouted loudly, "Is that all you so-called young masters can do, scare people with your status?"

"You..." Bao Shixing was instantly furious, after a moment, he said indignantly, "Fine, I’ll remember you, let’s see if you dare to be so arrogant after the auction."

Hearing this, Zhu Shen couldn’t help but glance at Ye Haochuan with a bitter smile.

Ye Haochuan had inadvertently put him in a fix. If they really came looking afterwards, the box was registered under his name, he would surely have to bear the brunt.

It was Gou Heiya, seemingly provoked, who offered a bid again: "I bid one hundred million, if you dare to follow!"

One hundred million red crystals definitely counted as an astronomical price, such a high price for a maid could go down in history.

But Ye Haochuan decisively increased the bid, provokingly offered: "One hundred million and one hundred thousand!"

Though it was only an increase of one hundred thousand, it became the last straw that broke the camel’s back, Gou Heiya said indignantly, "Good kid, just wait!"

"Wait for how long? My time is valuable, never used to wait for irrelevant people, especially men!" Ye Haochuan sneered.

"You..." Gou Heiya was furious, slamming the table in front of him to pieces.

The surrounding young men, though silent throughout the auction, were thrilled to see an impending show.

Outside in the hall, Rui’er angrily glared at Box Thirteen where Ye Haochuan was, fuming, "This bastard truly doesn’t care about me. I was ’captured’, yet he’s calmly spending a fortune on a maid, so hateful!"

As she finished speaking, suddenly a soft voice beside her remarked: "Men, in general, aren’t good things!"

Curious, Rui’er turned around to find a petite, exquisite woman, as beautiful as herself, having quietly appeared behind her.

This woman’s exposed chest revealed a partly visible tattoo resembling a black lotus flower.

For some reason, Rui’er felt an innate sense of closeness upon seeing this woman.

The woman smiled faintly and said, "Hearing you speak, I gather the sister has been deeply hurt by men. Such heartless men deserve swift elimination, otherwise, the foulness in one’s heart can’t be vented."

Rui’er wasn’t sure if she understood the words, but instinctively nodded, then unconsciously followed the woman.

In the box, Ye Haochuan was unaware of this. After he offered the one hundred million and one hundred thousand, Qiao’er finalized the price, confirming it as the final bid.

Ye Haochuan sighed with relief, he never cared much for wealth, securing Le Yao with red crystals from being bullied was quite satisfying.

"I’ll have to ask Ling Zhixing for money again!" Ye Haochuan chuckled wryly.

Always doing this, he wondered if he would bankrupt the Ye Family.

After sending the message, Ye Haochuan turned to Zhu Shen and said, "Young Master Zhu, you’re better off leaving first, otherwise, it might get troublesome later!"

Though there were surely people outside watching by Bao Shixing, he believed with Zhu Shen’s skills, he could leave quietly.

Zhu Shen looked at Ye Haochuan, weighed things briefly, and finally with a regretful expression said, "Considering my friendship with Brother Ye, I should stick together with him through thick and thin. But my family’s already weak, I dare not provoke more trouble, worsening their plight, I hope Brother Ye understands."

Blatant lies, he’s truly talented!

Ye Haochuan secretly praised in his mind.

Though he hadn’t done extensive research on Zhu Shen, merely the elder’s attitude at Guilang Workshop towards Zhu Shen showed his impressive background; claims of a weak family were pure fabrication, further distress was even more absurd.

But naturally, these words weren’t spoken aloud, Ye Haochuan just smiled and responded, "Young Master Zhu overestimates, this trouble was caused by Yours Truly Ye for Young Master Zhu, apologies are owed by me instead."

After some courteous charades between the two cunning foxes, Zhu Shen finally opened the door and left.

Almost as Zhu Shen left, a group of people surrounded Box Thirteen’s door, sealing it off completely.
