The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

"Is Jiang Nuanqiu around?" Tang Rao asked directly.

Since he had come, he had to at least notify the person.

After all, they had met each other as friends before.

Moreover, Tang Rao felt that this Jiang Nuanqiu was quite interesting.

Not to mention her appearance, just talking about her business skills, they were pretty impressive.

At the very least, the fact that he, Tang Rao, had come here proved a lot.

"Sister Jiang? She... might be a bit busy right now, negotiating with a customer. If you don't mind, sir, you could wait a little while; it shouldn't be too long," the sales lady said.

Tang Rao nodded. Negotiating with customers was normal, after all, she was selling antiques.

Jiang Nuanqiu's position must be higher than these salespeople, otherwise she wouldn't be directly negotiating with customers and such.

"Alright, you go ahead with your work, I'll just take a look around," Tang Rao said to the sales lady with a nod, maintaining the appropriate respect.

In the Nine Realms and Seventy-two Domains, you can be arrogant and overbearing, and even kill without blinking an eye. But if the other person hasn't provoked you, you must maintain decorum.

The thing Tang Rao disliked the most was those who create trouble for no reason. In the past, whenever he encountered such people, he was likely to go over and slap them twice.

After all, with the reputation of Tang Laohei, nobody in the Nine Realms and Seventy-two Domains would dare to provoke him.

"Of course, sir, feel free to browse and just call me if you need anything," the sales lady replied with a sweet, genuine smile.

After the sales lady left, Tang Rao began to stroll around.

I must say, this Baofeng Pavilion is really quite large, with all sorts of curios and antique pieces on display everywhere.

But after one round, Tang Rao still felt a bit disappointed, not having found anything of use to him. Let alone a Pill Furnace and Dan Fire, he hadn't even seen an object containing Spiritual Energy.

He didn't understand the knick-knacks and antiques. To Tang Rao, anything useless to him was pretty much trash.

If he had come across these items on the street, he probably wouldn't have even bothered to pick them up.

"Oh right, there's also a second and third floor, let's go check it out," Tang Rao muttered to himself, ready to head upstairs.

"Excuse me, sir, the second floor is a VIP area, please remain here," a staff member stepped forward in time to stop Tang Rao.

"VIP area?"

"Yes, sir. If you spend a total of one hundred thousand at our Baofeng Pavilion, you can become one of our VIPs," the staff member explained.

Tang Rao pursed his lips. You all tell me, can the idea of 'all men are created equal' really be achieved?

It's simply impossible. Even to go up to the second floor, they have to rank by class.

However, Tang Rao just grumbled inwardly. It's not like he could really argue with them and lose face.

After all, he is Tang Rao, Young Master of Huang Dynasty's industry.

"Alright, one hundred thousand, is it?" Tang Rao said, casually picking a few items and directly asking the sales lady to ring them up.

It came to a total of one hundred and twenty thousand, and then he applied for the VIP, receiving the VIP card on the spot.

"Can I go up now?" Tang Rao handed over the VIP card to the staff member.

"Please go ahead, sir," replied the staff member, naturally not obstructing him any further. They're the kind of big boss that Baofeng Pavilion welcomed the most.

"Leave this here for now, I'll take it when I leave," Tang Rao casually tossed the antiques he had bought at the feet of the staff member and then went straight upstairs.

The most lethal move is the invisible showing off.

Many people were stunned by Tang Rao's actions. After all, these things were worth over a hundred thousand, and you're just discarding them like trash?

The world of the wealthy is indeed not something ordinary people can understand.

There were few people on the second floor, and there were significantly fewer antiques on display than on the first floor.

It looked even more exquisite and private.

As for whether the items inside were better than downstairs, Tang Rao didn't really know; at least the prices were several times higher.

"Hello sir, welcome to Baofeng Pavilion, I'm the VIP service attendant, my name is Tian Tian." A cute voice sounded from the side.

Then, Tang Rao saw a little loli.

No, a girl who looked like a little loli.

She was about 1.6 meters tall, very slim and petite, with a face as innocent and white as a child's.

Her eyes curved like two crescent moons when she smiled.

"Tian Tian, your name matches your aura." Tang Rao complimented.

"Thank you." Tian Tian's smile grew wider, she liked serving customers like him, handsome and sweet-talking, really nice.

"By the way, I'm here to find Jiang Nuanqiu. I arranged to meet her, sorry for the inconvenience." Tang Rao apologized.

"Ah, you're looking for Nuanqiu, she... she's currently attending to a customer..." Tian Tian said.

However, as she said this, Tang Rao noticed a hint of worry in her eyes.

"By the way, are you friends with Nuanqiu?" Tian Tian suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Uh... sort of." Tang Rao nodded.

"Then... could you do Nuanqiu a favor?" Tian Tian gritted her teeth.

"Let's hear it." Tang Rao responded.

If Jiang Nuanqiu really was in trouble, he wouldn't mind lending a hand.

"Nuanqiu is in VIP room 6. There's a super nasty guy pestering her, I'm afraid... afraid that Nuanqiu might be at a disadvantage." Tian Tian looked anxious; that shameless guy had come several times before, always being handsy with Nuanqiu, and it was really annoying.

"Alright, I'll go take a look, and help if I can." Tang Rao said smilingly, beating up thugs was his favorite thing to do.

"But that guy has some backing, if things get tough, don't push yourself. After all, we are in the shop now, he wouldn't dare do much. If it's really impossible, Nuanqiu and I can just quit." Tian Tian added.

Backing?

I've even punched Lu He, why should I be afraid of someone with backing?

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Tang Rao assured Tian Tian with a smile, then headed straight for VIP room 6.

Upon reaching the door, Tang Rao pursed his lips, and then knocked three times.

No response.

He knocked three more times.

"Dammit, someone is here! Go somewhere else!" A violent roar came from inside the VIP room.

Tang Rao immediately felt annoyed. If someone was there, just say so nicely. Swearing as soon as you open your mouth, you're asking for trouble.

Bang!

Without further ado, Tang Rao pushed open the door of the VIP room with such force that the lock broke.

Inside the room, a man was grabbing Jiang Nuanqiu's hand, cornering her against the wall. As for Jiang Nuanqiu, she was pressing her hands against the man's shoulders with a look of disgust on her face.

Seeing Tang Rao at the door, a glimmer of surprise appeared in Jiang Nuanqiu's eyes.

As for the man, he turned around and glared at Tang Rao with boiling anger.

"Who are you? Are you deaf? Didn't you hear me say there's someone in here?! I'll give you three seconds to get out!" The man pointed at Tang Rao, looking ferocious and villainous.

Tang Rao sneered and pulled over a chair to sit down.

"Kid, you're quite arrogant." Tang Rao watched the man, propping up his chin, and said indifferently.

"Arrogant, hurry up and get out. Bastard, do you know who I am? If you don't, go and ask around about the name Liu Jin!" The man walked toward Tang Rao, full of menace.
