Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: A Bounty of 1 Million Lingzhi

```

This is domestic; if you randomly attack someone's website, it can easily cause unnecessary trouble.

"Quickly go to sleep, you can't be late again tomorrow!"

"Mo~m, as long as you can wake me up~"

Fatty pushed Ivy River outside, "We can definitely wake up, tomorrow I'll make you breakfast."

Watching Ivy River while walking, "Behave and sleep, don't cause any trouble!"

Fatty immediately locked the door, exchanged a glance with Emmy, and they both smiled triumphantly.

"Tomorrow when we go to school, we'll protect that little crybaby, and then take the chance to get close to Flowery, to find out more about Edwin Blake."

Emmy nodded obediently, "Okay, big brother, we can't alert others, or mom will scold us!"

"Definitely not, leave it to your brother. Even if discovered, I still won't go with that lousy dad."

"Neither will I! That lousy dad doesn't deserve to be my father!"

The two of them chatted away until they fell asleep quickly.

Meanwhile, Ivy River in the study had a troubled expression as she looked at the medical records.

Isla's condition was far more serious than she imagined.

Now, the necessary materials only lacked a century-old Lingzhi mushroom; otherwise, it would take her a long time.

After logging into the Dark Web, she searched for Lingzhi and posted a bounty.

She sent Leon Peterson a message: Help me secure a spot at the Flourishing Auction.

The next evening.

The neon lights at the Flourishing Auction flickered on and off, with people coming and going.

Everything auctioned at the Flourishing Auction is top-notch.

When Ivy River and Leon Peterson arrived, the people at the door looked at them with envy.

She had done a simple disguise today.

Wearing a black satin mini dress, with thin straps hanging casually on her shoulders.

Her black wavy hair fell loosely, and a veiled mask partially concealed her fair face.

Yet she was still stunning, a true masterpiece of the human world.

Ivy River hurriedly bowed her head and went inside, reaching the top floor suite.

From here, one can oversee everything.

Soon, a commotion erupted at the entrance.

Edwin Blake arrived with Isla Sutton, and just as they stepped out of the car, the surrounding whispers couldn't be stopped.

Isla Sutton's vanity was satisfied, feeling extremely proud.

She was in great shape today, which is why Edwin agreed to bring her to the auction.

Although she hadn't married into the Blake Family yet, Edwin Blake attending events would only bring Harry Ross or her.

Ivy River had never appeared in the public view.

Thinking of this, she clung more tightly to Edwin Blake's arm, smiling sweetly, "Edwin, let's go inside."

Edwin Blake came with a purpose today.

Last night, Ayla on the Dark Web offered a bounty for a century-old Lingzhi.

She also informed Harry Ross that treating Isla Sutton required the Lingzhi.

Otherwise, Edwin Blake rarely attended such auctions.

They went to another room on the top floor.

Edwin Blake nodded towards Alexander Hodges, "Did the opposite side have anyone come in today?"

Alexander Hodges, a close friend, was the youngest, ranking fourth.

There were only two rooms on the top floor of the auction house.

One was exclusively for nobles like Edwin Blake, and the other was used by the Hodges Family to entertain guests.

Alexander Hodges smiled a teasing smile, "The old man's people. Not sure who, just told me to entertain them well."

He seemed like a roguish playboy, casual and uninhibited, somewhat wicked.

Edwin Blake's mood was unclear, he just smiled without speaking.

He stared directly at the glass of the opposite suite, his eyes slightly narrowed as if he wanted to see through the people over there.

"Second brother, they say a lot of people are here for today's Lingzhi; originally, the venue didn't have many booked, but suddenly, a lot of people came today."

"Hmm, there's been word, and if no one came today, that'd be unexpected."

Edwin Blake's gaze was penetrating, "But the Lingzhi must be mine."

Alexander Hodges glanced at Isla Sutton, said nothing further, and began to spin a ring on his finger.

But in his eyes, there flashed a peculiar emotion.

Isla Sutton exclaimed, "Ayla? Is that the Divine Doctor?"

She was very curious; she had heard of the legend of "Ayla" but never seen the person.

Edwin Blake's eyes were gentle, "That's her. I asked her to come and treat you, so you won't have anything to worry about, this Lingzhi is meant for you."

Isla Sutton couldn't help but cry aloud, "Really? Then I can survive!"

"Yes," Edwin Blake reassured her patiently, "you can survive on your own. Haven't I always told you to rest easy?"

"Thank you, Edwin, only you are the best to me in this world!"

Isla Sutton nodded heavily and hugged his waist tightly, lifting her head for a kiss.

Edwin Blake unconsciously took a small step back.

Alexander Hodges couldn't take it anymore, coughed lightly, "Second brother, I'll step out for a breath."

Edwin Blake turned around, "I'll go too."

On the way out, he lifted his arm to wipe the kissed spot.

Isla Sutton wanted to follow but was stopped by Edwin Blake, "You stay in the room, I'm going out to smoke."

Alexander Hodges had just pushed open the door.

He saw the opposite door also opening.

Leon Peterson's head popped out, and when he saw Edwin Blake, he froze.

Ivy River didn't like crowds from a young age, but had to come for the Lingzhi.

Leon Peterson was bored inside, so he decided to go out for a smoke.

He pretended to be calm, nodded to Alexander Hodges, and then turned around to start smoking.

"Ayla has offered a million-dollar bounty for the Lingzhi, so naturally many people are coming. I couldn't tell you inside."

Alexander Hodges chuckled and nodded, "Second brother, he nodded at you."

Edwin Blake didn't speak, lighting a cigarette, between puffs, his gaze towards Leon Peterson changed.
