Chapter 101 praises someone as cute with a cold expression

Yuan Tianbo had actually intended to take the Water Orchid with him but, upon hearing those words, stopped in his tracks instead. He glared fiercely at Mu Hanyan, stomped his feet, gave the Water Orchid on the table no further look, and turned away to leave.

Stepping out of the main door, Yuan Tianbo took a deep breath, yet his frustration remained unabated. Feeling restless and irritable, a surge of anger scurried through him, making his whole body feel off, even walking seemed a bit awkward. It almost seemed like symptoms of mixed hemorrhoids were flaring up.

"Perhaps, I really should have taken that Water Orchid to make some medicine," Yuan Tianbo thought to himself. Then, he fiercely slapped his own face.

Idiot, you were just deceived by him and you still believe his words? Are you that stupid?

At this moment, Yuan Tianbo was filled with grief and indignation. First, he was brutally beaten up by Mu Hanyan and her two golden lackeys, losing face completely. Then, he was tricked and stirred into spending four thousand taels on a Fire Orchid, being turned into a fool for a fake.

The most infuriating part was, that Fire Orchid turned out to be fake! He had spent a total of 5,200 taels of silver, all for a counterfeit product.

Idiot, idiot, even Yuan Tianbo began to doubt his own intelligence.

Inside the auction house, the crowd that had been enjoying the spectacle had already dispersed on their own, yet they couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Mu Hanyan before leaving: this top playboy of Heishi City indeed lived up to his reputation—arrogant and domineering, shameless even, yet somehow, he didn’t feel as distasteful as they expected, rather interesting actually.

No one saw that in a corner of the auction house, several figures cloaked in black draped their faces in dark cloaks. The leading man, under the hood of his black cloak, a face of peerless beauty, showed a faint smile as he intently watched the arrogant Mu Hanyan, without shifting his gaze.

This man was precisely the one who, after encountering the Meteor Shower and enhancing his strength, had bumped into Mu Hanyan upon returning to the city. He and his subordinates had witnessed the entire scene from start to finish.

At this time, the man’s subordinates couldn’t help but exclaim,

"This kid is quite the playboy."

"However, it’s key that he’s a likable playboy."

"Yes, he really is quite interesting."

The men whispered quietly, suddenly the leader turned around abruptly, his deep eyes coldly swept over the others, sending a chill down their spines, silencing them immediately.

The handsome leader shot a cold glance at his followers, expressionless, he walked past them, and then suddenly uttered two words: "Cute." Then he walked away directly.

The men behind him were thunderstruck, petrified in place—you look at me, I look at you, then at him. They looked everyone present over in turns, then confirmed one thing.

They weren’t hallucinating, definitely not hallucinating!

Their leader, with a cold face, had praised that playboy as "cute"!

One should not praise others with such an emotionless, icy demeanor, right? No, that’s not the point, not the focus!

The leader had described a man as cute, the heavens must be about to strike with swords!

Could it really be that the leader was, was, homosexual?

Now thinking carefully, the leader held a high position, extraordinary strength, and a stunning appearance that made men envious and women jealous. Although stunning was an unusual word to use for a man, the leader indeed possessed a charm that could induce such feelings. However, throughout these years, the leader had remained chaste, never heard to be involved with any woman.

Could it really be that the leader was homosexual?

(The Chapter from now on starts in reverse V, I have some words I want to share with everyone. As you have seen up to this point, this text does heat up slowly, but please be patient and continue to read on, the story will become increasingly captivating, and I will describe extensive, fascinating events. The wish I have while writing is to bring joy and positivity to everyone. Family, friendship, love, all are precious, and I want to tell everyone to cherish these things. We start charging now, hoping those who can afford it will support the official release, spending a little to treat the author to some meat, hehe. Then about the issue of pirated versions, I’ve never demanded much from everyone. My stance has always been, support the official versions if your personal finance allows it. If your capability isn’t enough and you can’t support the official version, I understand. Because I know some might find it inconvenient to recharge, or maybe students don’t have much money, and some are unwilling to spend. However, I hope that you could register an account on Tencent, cast your recommendation vote, leave comments, these don’t require spending, and they’re also a form of support. Lastly, again, I hope my writing brings everyone relaxation and a smile after your busy daily lives of work, study, and more. Bowing deeply, thankful to each reader in any form of support.
