Chapter 200. A Happy Trip
Jiang Jianxin was a little stunned when he heard Feng Shiman's question.

This is mainly because she feels she's not very familiar with the trend of following trends.

How did we suddenly end up shopping at the caves together after meeting this person this morning?

The white-robed swordsman stood there, his face stern, and said:
"No, we have different interests. I want to go to the brothel to watch male models dance."

Jiang Jianxin originally thought that Feng Shiman would back down after hearing this, but to his surprise, he just smiled gently and said:

"It's okay, you watch the male models dance, I'll order food and eat, I promise I won't look at your male models."

"?"

A question mark appeared above Jiang Jianxin's head.

—No, was she afraid that Feng Shiman would secretly glance at her male model, so she didn't go with him?

Seeing that the Sword Master's face was still indifferent, Feng Shiman sighed, took out a colorful flyer from his pocket, and handed it to her.

"Look at this. Actually, besides wanting to visit the money-burning den, I also want to visit this."

Jiang Jianxin took the flyer and found that it was printed on both sides. The front had the promotional slogan for the Black Pupil Pharmaceuticals auction, and the back had the promotional poster for the Rose Group auction.

She looked at the contents carefully and asked:

"You want to go to the auction?"

Feng Shiman nodded and smiled slightly.
"The auctions of major powers usually sell a lot of good things. Doesn't Sword Master want to go and take a look?"

He pulled a pink piece of paper from his pocket and said:
"I know you don't have an invitation, but I do. It's an internal invitation, and two people can go in."

Jiang Jianxin frowned subconsciously and asked in puzzlement:

"...Why didn't these two forces send me an invitation?"

She belongs to the upper class in terms of both wealth and power, so why was she excluded from the auction?

Feng Shiman waved his hand and said:
"No, they all sent them to you, but they were sent to the Dawn Base. I work at Black Pupil Pharmaceuticals, so I know that."

Jiang Jianxin was speechless. For a moment, she felt that the world was a huge makeshift operation.

Why didn't you call Yin Ju?

Jiang Jianxin asked again.

It wasn't that she was inherently suspicious, but rather that the other party's power and stance were simply too different from hers.

After what happened with Lin Xin'an, she always made sure to ask questions about anyone with a sensitive stance, otherwise she would be the one to suffer.

“I wanted to call him, but he’s busy and he’s away right now. He asked me to come find you.”

Feng Shiman said frankly.

He was actually a little uneasy because Jiang Jianxin was indeed not familiar with him. She herself was powerful and of high status, and it was possible that she would not be willing to play with him and would give him the cold shoulder.

However, the first war tycoon in front of her was clearly very easygoing. She stared at the auction list for a long time before finally saying calmly:
"Great, I didn't get enough fun yesterday either."

Feng Shiman said happily:
"So, shall we set off at three in the afternoon? After the auction, we can still visit other places; the night view of Haidu is quite nice."

Jiang Jianxin nodded, and Feng Shiman left in high spirits.

After he left, Jiang Jianxin carefully examined the flyer.

Black Eyes Pharmaceuticals' auction this time mainly features rare and special-function drugs, and the contents seem quite abundant.

Jiang Jianxin always felt that Feng Shiman must have some ulterior motive for coming to see her, and she agreed to see his true purpose.

After all, I am not the same person I used to be.

……

"You mean..." The white-robed swordswoman stood there, sword in hand, head tilted back, her expression complex. Her dark eyes reflected the magnificent golden building before her—

The entire glass door is inlaid with thousands of diamonds, reflecting dazzling light under the neon lights. Roses and lilies hanging from the lintel intertwine to form a magnificent wreath, and their rich fragrance wafts in the night breeze. Two rows of hostesses in cheongsams greet guests with radiant smiles, their jewels gleaming under the gilded doorway.

"You're thinking of coming to... the Rose Group's jewelry auction?"

Jiang Jianxin turned his head and looked at Feng Shiman in disbelief.

Feng Shiman happily hummed in agreement.

Jiang Jianxin moved his lips slightly and said:
"Actually... you don't need to come here just to accommodate me."

Feng Shiman asked in confusion:

"Does Jiang Zemin also like jewelry?"

Jiang Jianxin was speechless, and she slapped her head.

The conventional mindset of ordinary society always influenced her thinking—she forgot that in this society of the gifted, it's not just women who like jewelry; there are many men who also like jewelry, and without the oppression and exclusion of society, they can openly enter and leave jewelry stores.

The man in front of me didn't seem to be forcing me at all; he clearly genuinely enjoyed jewelry auctions.

"I thought you would want to go to Black Eye Pharmaceuticals' auction."

Jiang Jianxin, remembering the conspiracy he had yet to witness, was unwilling to give up and wanted to test Feng Shiman again to see if she was faking it or if it was true love.

To everyone's surprise, he gave an awkward laugh:
"I know that Boss Jiang might be interested in Black Pupil Pharmaceuticals, but we're out having fun, so let's not talk about Black Pupil Pharmaceuticals, shall we?"

Feng Shiman's exquisite and beautiful face only showed resentment towards mentioning her company, without any sense of belonging to any power.

Jiang Jianxin found it hard to imagine that someone could laugh so bitterly.

She stopped talking, but she still didn't give up on her original intention. She felt that this was just Feng Shiman's disguise, and that it would eventually be exposed.

And so, Jiang Jianxin and Feng Shiman embarked on a joyful trip.

Jiang Jianxin spent three hours at the Rose Group's auction, sitting in a private room on the second floor, watching Feng Shiman next to her go on a buying spree. Whenever she saw a piece of jewelry that she liked, she would bid a high price for it. The packaged jewelry gift boxes filled the room. In the end, because there were just too many, Jiang Jianxin had to help Feng Shiman carry some of them—she even carried more than Feng Shiman, because she was a Sword Master and had more strength than a Sorcerer.

Jiang Jianxin never dreamed that one day he would be working as a bag carrier while shopping.

She was carrying bags and packages all over her body, and Feng Shiman was also carrying quite a few, but she still had hands to buy ice cream.

Jiang Jianxin couldn't stand it anymore, and she said sarcastically:
"Those who know you're here for the auction will think you've gone to the factory to buy goods."

"Does Black Pupil Pharmaceuticals know that we're giving Rose Group so much money?"

"If the Rose Group wins the next business war, I won't accept it if I don't see Teacher Feng's name on the list of heroes."

Feng Shiman, upon hearing this, replied gently and earnestly:
"I'm so sorry to have troubled you today. I'll treat you to dinner later. Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Jianxin felt like he'd punched cotton, and was even given a compliment for being so tolerant. He huffed and puffed as he carried his bag, remaining silent.

Because Feng Shiman had asked her to be her tour guide, Jiang Jianxin assumed he was going to the place she had visited the day before to drink, dance, and engage in some high-class entertainment.

Who knew that the first thing he asked was where the biggest arcade in the commercial street was?

Jiang Jianxin asked in surprise:
"You want to play video games?"

Feng Shiman nodded seriously and said:
"That's why I called you, because there aren't many games that can be played solo, and I want to play a two-player game."

Jiang Jianxin fell silent.

Her conspiracy theory just shattered with a "smack".

She pondered Sun Tzu's Art of War, spending a long time devising strategic plans...

So—this kid really loves to play?
