Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 208

“You’ve already beat around the bush and said so much. If I don’t bring you along, won’t I seem too unkind?” Marina said slowly.

“Didn’t everyone already know the fact that you’re unkind?” Quantum replied subconsciously.

After all, in the Darknet, Marina would never be too respectful to anyone.

Marina didn’t know what to say.

“Now I can see why you always stay at home and don’t go out.” Marina’s tone was calm.

“Why?” Quantum was a little confused.

“Because with your mouth, you might be beaten to death if you go out.” Marina snorted.

Quantum was speechless.

“Beat him to death! Beat him to death!” The little Phoenix, who was fanning Marina, caught the main point of Marina’s words.

It threw away the fan in its hand and slid toward Quantum with an electric current.

“Hey, hey, calm down! Calm down! Your owner didn’t mean to kill me!” Quantum was so scared that he fled.

“Beat him to death! Beat him to death!” The little Phoenix was still chasing after him.

“Hey, hurry up and stop your little firecracker,” Quantum took the time to shout at Marina.

However, she only yawned lazily and lay on the sofa. Then she slowly closed her eyes and started to sleep.

Quantum was very speechless.

Sure enough! Like owner, like item.

They were always taking pleasure in bullying others.

Saturday night, Quantum followed Marina into the auction house as he wished.

And the little Phoenix was still in his arms.

In order to be more in line with today’s big scene, Quantum also put on a special suit for little Phoenix.

It looked even more handsome and adorable.

“Miss Bailey, this way please.” After taking a look at the invitation card in Marina’s hand, the attendant at the door of the auction house instantly put on a

respectful look.

He bent down and led the way for Marina and the others.

Marina followed behind him with a calm expression.

However, Quantum realized that they were in the exact opposite position of the entrance of others.

“Where are we going?” Quantum asked softly.

“This is the passageway for VIPs. You can take the elevator directly to the VIP seats on the second floor,” the attendant in front immediately explained.

“Wow, the class system really exists everywhere.” Quantum felt that he had really grown in knowledge.

Then he followed Marina to the VIP area on the second floor.

“Miss Bailey, this is your seat.” The attendant led Marina to the first row.

“Thank you,” Marina said slowly.

“There’s our auction booklet for today on each seat. You can take a look first. If there’s anything you like, you can tell me in advance, I’ll send it over for you.” The attendant was very respectful.

“Alright, you can go do your job first Marina nonchalantly picked up the auction booklet beside her seat.

“Okay.” The attendant immediately bowed and left.

As soon as that person left, Quantum immediately went up to her. “Speaking of which, don’t the items in this auction have to be bid first? How can they be taken away in advance?”

“Others can’t, but I can.” Marina casually flipped through the booklet in her hand.. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

There were a lot of items being auctioned today, but nothing caught her eye.

Well…

When Quantum heard Marina’s words, his eyes instantly lit up.

“Marina, do you need a younger brother? The kind who does everything you say.”

“No. I already have enough brothers. I don’t want to get myself another burden.” Marina refused without looking up.

Quantum instantly looked upset.

“You’re a burden!” The little Phoenix, who was in his arms, seemed to be gloating.

“You still have the cheek to call me a burden? Why don’t you take a look at yourself? I have to carry you when you go out. You’re the real burden!” Quantum started being mean again.

“Prepare for electric shock charging!

“Charging complete!

“Electrocution begins!” The glasses on the little Phoenix’s screen instantly turned into a cold straight line.

“Oh…” Quantum’s entire body was trembling from the electric shock.

Meanwhile, Marina could not be bothered with the two of them. She just flipped through the booklet in her hand.

It was indeed a waste of time to come to such a place.

However, gifts were only a token of feelings.

She could just pick a few thrigs.

Just as Marina war focused on choosing gifts, another group of people was led up to the second floor by the attendant.

However, their seats were a little far from Marina’s.

They were at the leftmost position.

If Marina turned around slightly, she would see a very familiar figure.

And that was Gordon!

“Mr. Yetts, please help yourself. If there’s anything you like, you can call me anytime.”

“Okay, you can leave now.” Luke didn’t even look at the booklet in his hand and directly asked that person

“Gordon, take a seat.” After the staff of the auction house left, Luke glanced at Gordon.

“Okay.” Gordon immediately sat down.

“You’ve completed your mission very well this time. You can see if there’s anything you like in this action. If there is, just let me know. I’ll give it to you,” Luke said slowly.

“Thank you, Mr. Yetts.” Gordon did not decline.

This was the mystery of human interaction.

One had to know what kind of reward to accept and what kind of reward not to.

His mission this time involved too many aspects.

Some of them could not be known by the public.

He had to accept Luke’s gift to show that they were in the same boat and make Luke at ease.

If he pretended to be upright and refused to accept it, Luke would be angry.

There was no need for Gordon to learn these hypocritical things before.

But now, he was already good at it.

As time passed, the seats downstairs were already fully occupied.

On the second floor, there were more people than at the beginning.

With the crowd blocking them, neither Marina nor Gordon noticed each other’s presence.

Half an hour later, the auction officially began.

Actually, the items that Marina wanted had already been circled. There was no point in her staying there any longer.

After informing the people at the auction, they would directly send the items to her house.

However, Quantum said now that they were already here, it would be a little unreasonable if they did not get a taste of the auction.

Marina could only go through the motions with him.

Compared to Marina’s lack of interest, Quantum was much more excited.

Because Marina had already said that he could bid as much as he wanted on the items she had circled.

As a result, in the following auction, everyone only saw a very young–looking youth on the second floor bidding all the time.

He did not care about other people’s bids at all.

The people who appeared here naturally knew that those who could go to the second floor were definitely not people they could easily offend.

As a result, no one competed with him every time he bid.

“Oh, why aren’t they bidding anymore?” Quantum was starting to find it boring.
