My Unrivaled Princess: I Won’t Mess With You

Chapter 160 - A Body Armor



Chapter 160. A Body Armor

Translator: Sissy That Walk

The private room Luo Qianqian was in was on the top level of the tavern, they could see everything through the window, but the people outside couldn’t see them.

There were about five thousand guests seated in the hall now, they all stared at the stage in pleasurable expectation, expecting the auction to start as soon as possible.

There were various items on the auction, curios, weapons, herbal medicines, ornaments, jewellery, and even garments. But they were no regular garments, they were made from rare yamamai silk, they functioned as body armor in modern society.

But Luo Qianqian was interested in nothing but the herbal medicines, it was a shame that the herbal medicines were this year’s feature items, they would only show up at the end.

A pretty girl who was scantily clad walked to the stage amid the applause, “Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the biggest auction event in the Jianghu Underworld! It’s your support that makes this event possible, we can’t think you enough! Without further ado, let’s bring our first item to the stage. It is a spiritual weapon, I’m sure you’ve all heard of spiritual weapons like Flash and Bone, this dagger is not as famous as Flash and Bone, but it is as sharp as them, it would cut clean through iron as though it were mud. And one more thing, this dagger is still unnamed, you can name it to our fancy!”

Luo Qianqian took a glimpse at the girl, she wasn’t particularly gorgeous or anything, but she had got a pair of hypnotic eyes like a sophisticated lady and alluring voice, they were both very rare for a young girl of her age.

And it worked.

Luo Qianqian noticed a lot of people who were on the fence about the dagger changed their mind as they heard the girl’s voice.

“Starting price is ten thousand taels!” announced the girl.

Soon a man replied, “Eleven thousand taels!”

“Twelve thousand!”

“Fifteen thousand!”

… …

“Twenty thousand!”

The atmosphere became rather heated as someone made a bid of twenty thousand, which was twice as much as the starting price within such a short amount of time.

Luo Qianqian could see the dagger as well, she couldn’t lay her eyes on any weapon any more since she had got Flash. There was no comparison between the dagger on the stage and her Flash.

Su Liancheng put on a fawning smile when he noticed Luo Qianqian had taken a glimpse at the dagger on the stage, “It tickles your fancy? Would you like me to bid it for you, my good sister-in-law?”

Luo Qianqian shook her head, “That’s not necessary, I’ve got my own weapon.”

And it was from my Murong Yun. Luo Qianqian beamed as she thought ‘my weapon, my Murong Yun’.

With that she waved at Feng Qing, “Feng Qing, let me see the money Liang Ao just gave you.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Luo Qianqian went into raptures with glee as she counted her money. Murong Yun asked with confusion, “Qianqian, why are you like this every time you see money? You make me feel like you would give up on me readily for money!”

Luo Qianqian smiled, “Are you serious? Are you seriously jealous of money? It’s just I like the sound of counting bank notes? Don’t you find that sound fascinating?”

Xiao Bai had heard everything in the space, it couldn’t help laughing at Luo Qianqian, “Master, that was one lame excuse you just used. Just admit it, you are a moneygrubber, it has nothing to do with the sound!”

Xiao Bai knew why Luo Qianqian liked money so much, she had suffered too much in 21st century, she needed money to build on her security.

“Qianqian, I will take your word for it.” Murong Yun smiled at her affectionately, ‘All right, I need to prepare a large pile of bank notes for you in the future. Miss-I-like-to-listen-to-banknotes-rustling!’

“Twenty thousand going once, twenty thousand going twice, twenty thousand going three times! The dagger is yours!”

With that the girl stared to introduce the second item, a body armor.

“Don’t underestimate this garment, it can save your life in a fight. Daggers, swords, blades, nothing can penetrate this garment!”

Luo Qianqian nodded her head, not because she liked this body armor. She approved the way the girl introduced the items in this order, she introduced a weapon first, then she talked up the second item after that, of course people would be more impressed and more willing to pay a good price.

“This entire garment is made from rare wild yamamai silk, quite naturally, the starting price is not cheap.” with that the girl winked at the audience, “Thirty thousand taels! And I will put it on to better demonstrate it.” with that the girl walked to the backstage to get changed.

The audience stared speechless at the other, ‘this is too good to be true.’

Soon the girl showed up wearing the body armor, it fit her snugly, emphasizing how great her figure was. A lot of audience glued their eyes on her.

“This garment is elastic, it can fit anyone. And now you may start bidding.”

“Thirty five thousand taels!” a man shouted, he added five thousand on his first bid.

Luo Qianqian muttered, “Hmm, I don’t mind having a body armor, but I don’t like the design. It can come in handy when people send assassins to me.”

Murong Yun replied, “I will find better material for you, and of course better designers.”

“Really?” Luo Qianqian looked intrigued, “But she says the material is very rare, will this be too troublesome for you? You know what, never mind, I was just babbling. Our focus today is to get you all the medicines, never mind about the body armor!”

“Troublesome? No. Anything for you.”

Luo Qianqian felt so lucky that they loved each other wholeheartedly. They were and would be there for each other all the time, they would have fun together and fight together!

“Thank you, it would be ideal if we can find enough material for both of us.” Luo Qianqian replied.

“Forty thousand taels!” it was the First Elder in Gu Village who just bid.

Luo Qianqian noticed the triumph smile on Gu Lina’s face, it looked it was her who wanted the garment.

It wasn’t until now did Luo Qianqian realize how the First Elder spoiled Gu Lina, probably Gu Linawent to the great length to seduce Luo Qianqian because of indulgence, or… Gu Lina did it under the First Elder’s instruction?
