Chapter 29 - Chen Gui

Therefore, Xu You simply asked, "What about you? What's your name?"

The woman frowned. "I'm very unhappy that you speak like that."

Xu You was immediately shocked and hurriedly replied, "Cough, cough. Xu You, my name is Xu You."

The woman nodded.

"Chen Gui."

"Ah?" Xu You was stunned. It took him a moment to realize that the woman was talking about her name.

"You… are looking for me?"

The woman nodded again.

"Why?"

This time, Chen Gui did not answer quickly. Instead, she frowned as if she had fallen into thought.

After a long time, she replied, "I don't know, but there's a familiar aura on you. I like it very much."

Xu You frowned. He could tell that Chen Gui did not seem to have any hostility toward him.

However, Chen Gui's strength was too powerful, causing Xu You to almost instinctively feel uneasy.

"If you're looking for something on me, I can give it to you directly as repayment for saving my life."

"After giving it to you, we won't owe each other anything."

Hearing this, Chen Gui shook her head under Xu You's disappointed gaze.

"It shouldn't be… something on you. I'm not too sure."

At this moment, Chen Gui had a puzzled expression. Coupled with her exquisite face, she actually looked a little cute.

This discovery stunned Xu You himself.

"Is that so? Where do you live? Jianglin City?"

Xu You wanted to inquire about Chen Gui's background first.

After asking these things, he could analyze and deal with the current situation.

However, Chen Gui's answer surprised him again.

"I don't have a home."

Xu You was stunned for a moment before asking, "What about your friend? I can send you to your friend's place."

"I don't have any friends either."

"I don't know anyone in this world."

Chen Gui's expression was extremely calm as she slowly said these words.

Xu You was stunned. He really did not expect Chen Gui's background to be so pitiful.

She had no home or friends.

"Then where are you staying now?"

Chen Gui shook her head again.

This time, before she could speak, Xu You answered first.

"You don't have a place to stay, right?"

Chen Gui stared at him for a moment until the smile on Xu You's face froze. Then, she nodded.

Xu You thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I'll find you a place to stay first."

"After you figure out these problems, you can decide where to go, okay?"

When Chen Gui heard this, she did not continue to shake her head or nod. Instead, she stared at Xu You.

"No, I'll just follow you."

When Xu You heard this, he was first slightly stunned and his mood immediately became a little conflicted.

To Xu You, it was naturally a good thing to have a great expert like Chen Gui by his side.

However, she was too uncontrollable.

Thinking of this, Xu You asked, "If that's the case, will you help me resolve any danger I encounter?"

Chen Gui lowered her head and thought for a moment before saying extremely seriously, "It depends on my mood."

Xu You opened his mouth but could not say a word.

In the end, Xu You gave up on continuing to communicate with Chen Gui and directly brought her to a hotel near Ling Lan's villa.

Of course, it was impossible for Xu You to bring Chen Gui to Ling Lan's villa. It was very troublesome to explain.

Moreover, with the personalities of Ling Lan and Chen Gui, Xu You did not believe that they would not fight after getting together.

Therefore, arranging for Chen Gui to stay in the hotel was the best choice.

Xu You and Chen Gui explained for a long time, saying that they were not far from her.

After talking for a long time, Chen Gui accepted this arrangement.

As for Wang Chen, who had been knocked unconscious by Chen Gui…

Xu You had never been a soft-hearted person. After realizing that Wang Chen could not resist him, he simply ended the guy's life.

As for the rare treasure, Xu You did not take it.

The Treasure Pavilion valued these things so much that there might be something inside that could track them.

For an S-rank treasure, it was not worth taking such a risk.

After Xu You returned to the villa, Ling Lan and Old Tame Head were naturally a little worried.

After the three of them experienced the Fallen City together, their relationship had already increased greatly.

If it was a little difficult for the three of them to say that they were teammates before, it was no longer a problem now.

The three of them agreed to eat lunch. Xu You had missed the appointment and had yet to be contacted, so it naturally made them a little worried.

After Xu You explained the situation clearly, he only skipped the part about Chen Gui. He only said that he was lucky to have encountered a mysterious senior and escaped danger.

When Old Tame Head heard this, he naturally felt relieved.

Although Ling Lan was a little skeptical, since Xu You had already said so, she could not continue.

"Right, the Lin Auction House in Jianglin City is preparing to hold an auction in three days. Most of the things we sold will appear in that auction."

"When the things are sold, the auction house will take 5%. This is the best price I can negotiate."

Xu You nodded when he heard this.

He knew that what Ling Lan said was true.

Under normal circumstances, when receiving goods in an auction, they would directly buy from the seller and auction the items themselves.

In that case, no matter how high the price of the item was, it had nothing to do with the seller.

Under normal circumstances, the auction house would definitely not give this condition.

Unless it was someone like them, the goods were especially precious, and the seller was very powerful.

Only under such circumstances would the auction house be willing to give in to such an extent.

"The auction house estimated that after selling these goods, they should be able to sell for about 3 billion."

"At that time, Old Tame Head will take two billion. Xu You, you take 700 million, and I'll take 300 million. Do you have any objections?"

When Xu You heard this, he looked at Ling Lan in surprise but did not say anything.

Old Tame Head was also stunned. Then, he said in disbelief, "I'll take two billion? Isn't this a little too…"

Ling Lan waved her hand and interrupted what Old Tame Head wanted to say.

"Two billion is not much. There are many things that I took but you did not. These are what you deserve."

"Moreover, if not for the fact that I need some money to pull some strings, I plan to give you this 300 million."

When Old Tame Head heard this, he naturally praised Ling Lan again.

She waved her hand and suddenly turned to look at Xu You.
