My Arrogant Young Lady

“那么，这钱您准备好了吗？”小好人尴尬的看着我说。

“钱？”听了小好人的话，我一下就愣住了。因为王澈说会帮我赚钱，但是到现在她也没带着我赚钱啊。就觉得有点尴尬。我赶紧向王澈看了过去。

“小好人，一会儿我哥看上什么你让他拿就好了。钱的事你放心，我回头准给你送来。”王澈讨厌小好人，对小好人说话的态度也是十分冷漠。

“呵呵。有我们省城首富的赵家大小姐做担保，这个面子我小好人肯定是要给的。不过咱们可要事先说好，今天拍卖出去的物品可是要用来做慈善事业的。你赵家大小姐从我这拿走东西可以，但是三天之内必须要给我结算。”小好人。对王澈说话的语气也变得阴阳怪气了。

“废话少说，快带我们去看宝物吧。钱，我王澈一分都不会少你的。”王澈冷冷的说。

"Alright then." The kind-hearted person also gave a cold laugh.

Led by Wang Che, Liuli, Runtu, and Heilong, we followed the kind-hearted man backstage at the charity auction gala. As we entered, Liuli thought for a moment and asked me, "Brother Ba, aren't you a policeman? Why are you so rich? Did you embezzle?"

看见琉璃对我的身份怀疑了，我的心里顿时一惊。然后赶紧对琉璃说。“妹妹，哥没有贪污，哥其实也没有钱。哥是警察，现在正在调查一件国宝失踪的案子。你没看见吗？哥一分钱都没有给那小好人。没钱。哥是骗他的……”

“哦。”听了我的话，琉璃便不再多问了。

The backstage area for the charity auction gala was a small hall. After I finished speaking with Liuli, I saw a large number of antiques, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, and various precious medicinal herbs. Wang Che, who was beside me, had grown up in the Wang family, whose family was the richest in the provincial capital. Her knowledge was far broader than mine; she could immediately recognize the value of many items. Without looking at the antiques, calligraphy, paintings, or jewelry in the small hall, Wang Che only glanced at the medicinal herbs and showed a look of disappointment.

"Good boy, do you not want to keep your family's pharmaceutical factory open anymore? Your old man has been collecting for so long, and this is all the junk he's collected?"

“王澈，你别欺人太甚！我郝家现在是由你王家和赵家接济不假，但是论名贵药材的拥有数量，我郝家在国内的地位绝对是数一数二的。若是你看不上我郝家的东西，你可以不买！”耳听着王澈看不起他家小厅里的东西，小好人瞬间就怒了。他愤怒的程度，和我当初说他家是卖假药的一样。

知道小好人不喜欢别人说他家的药不好，我赶紧对王澈说，“妹妹，我看他家的药材挺好的。你赶紧帮我挑挑，看看有什么适合王蛇吃的。”

"They're all pretty average. The only decent things are the ginseng root from the deep mountains of Changbai Mountain that's over a hundred years old, the lingzhi mushroom that's over fifty years old, and the Tian Shan snow lotus that's barely passable. There's nothing else of value in his little hall. But it would be a waste to buy these things to feed the snakes. These are things that could save lives in a critical moment. It's better to leave them for the 'good guy' to bid on by those wealthy, risk-averse businessmen outside. That way, the Hao family won't look too shabby at the auction," Wang Che said listlessly.

“哼！”听了王澈的话，小好人的脸色变了变发出一声冷哼。

“就没有一样能让王蛇实力大涨的东西吗？”听王澈这么一说，我也显得有些失望了。

"Wait a minute, this thing seems a bit interesting..." Wang Che was suddenly drawn to a small black box in the small hall...

第二百一十章 千年尸心

王澈相中的那个黑色小盒子模样普通，与小厅中一些装载宝物的盒子没什么两样。但是那盒子里的东西却有些特别，如鸡蛋般大小，遍体漆黑干瘪，若隐若现散发着阵阵的黑气。就被那小东西所吸引，王澈缓缓走到了那小东西的面前。接着叫黑龙拿来一副口罩和手套戴上，又用一把小镊子将东西夹起来细细的欣赏了起来。

这时，小厅的门突然被人推开了。一名中年人带着几名年轻人走进，对小好人深深鞠上一躬说道，“公子，拍卖会要开始了。”

“王澈，相中了什么快点说。我们要开始拍卖了！”小好人不耐烦的对王澈说道。

“Except for this little thing, you can put all of them up for auction,” Wang Che said.

“Alright, this is what you don’t want. Old Zhang, apart from this little thing that Wang Che is looking at, you can all take the rest out for auction!” said the kind-hearted man.

"Yes!" The middle-aged man nodded, and then led the young man to move the items out of the small hall one by one.

而王澈，仍然在欣赏着那小东西。用清澈的眼睛注视着那小东西，她美丽的眼睛有时发亮。有时又变得黯然。而她脸上的表情也是变幻不停，时而欢喜，时而慎重。

看见王澈将这小东西看得如此重要，我在一边小声问道。“这小东西，是十分珍贵的药材吗？”说完，我也跟着细细观察了起来。就看见那些干瘪成一小团，犹如烧黑的煤炭一般。

“这东西叫什么，我也不知道。是我父亲从一个倒斗的手艺人那收的，不是古董也不是药材，但鉴别了一下年份，却发现有上千年的历史。我父亲将这东西收来时也没花多少钱，才二百块钱就收到了。虽然这东西没有什么鉴赏价值，但也有上千年历史了。留之无味，弃之可惜。这东西也不是拿来拍卖的，是一会儿打算随着这里的宝物顺手送人的。若是你家澈儿喜欢，我一分不要直接送给她便是。”

“不过，你家澈儿的鉴别能力也不过如此嘛。我这里有那么多好东西她没看上，居然看上了这么一件破烂东西。”说完，小好人看着王澈的眼神变得不屑起来。

“那好，这东西我留下了。不过我不占你的便宜，你父亲花二百块钱收的这东西，我给你二百块钱！”说完，王澈将小盒子一合，接着从随身小包里拿出二百块钱递给小好人。

“我草，你打我脸啊！”小好人顿时怒了，扔下二百块钱就走了。

“草，这傻比真装。真想干他一顿啊。”看见小好人气呼呼的离去，黑龙捡起地上的二百块钱就揣进了口袋中。

然而，当小好人刚刚离开后，王澈的表情顿时变得欢喜起来。接着，她又紧紧抱住我开心的跳了起来，然后在我脸上吻了一口激动地说道，“哥，那小好人果然没什么见识。你知道这是什么东西吗？”

“这是什么？”我眨了眨眼睛有些迷茫。

“This is called a Corpse Heart, not the heart of a corpse, but the heart of a zombie. And I just saw it; this zombie's heart is over a thousand years old. It's the heart of a thousand-year-old zombie king!” As he spoke, Wang Che's eyes shone brightly.

"What?! There really are zombies in this world?!" I exclaimed in surprise.

“当然有，怎么没有僵尸。若是这世界没有僵尸，那些靠算命修道的道士恐怕全都要去要饭了。只是现在的科技越来越发达了，就算有僵尸也没有什么好怕的。发现哪个地区有僵尸出现，国家的神组第一时间出现，一颗穿甲弹就给直接搞定了。而真实的僵尸也没有传说中的僵尸那么可怕，除了刀枪不入之外，就是能传播一点瘟疫。倒是这颗完整的僵尸心，十分难得。因为僵尸本身就是一种很难对付的生物，大多修道者为了杀死一只僵尸往往要跟僵尸拼得你死我活。能杀死一只僵尸却不伤害它的心脏，这种本事只有神级高手才能做到。而我现在得到的这颗千年尸王的尸心，实力应该在众神之上。湘西一带盛产僵尸，搞不好这僵尸是你师父冷燕所杀呢。”说完，王澈又打开盒子欣赏起来。看着看着。王澈的俏脸开始变得红润了。

"My master, is he that powerful?" I exclaimed in surprise.

"Hehe, don't you even know who your mother is? Your mother is the number one martial arts master in the world, and her noble character commands respect. Leng Yan himself is not convinced by our father. He only took you as his disciple because of your mother. Of course, you were also lost in your mother's hands when you were little. It was Leng Yan who found you and raised you with great care for a while. By the time Leng Yan returned you to your mother, he had already developed feelings for you. Leng Yan is the sect leader of a prestigious sect, and his mastery of formations is feared even by many masters above the level of gods. If he were to be a teacher, he could already be considered the best teacher in the world. Apart from Leng Yan, no one else could train you into a martial arts master in three months. Leng Yan can already be considered one of the top figures in the world." Wang Che said with a blush on her pretty face.

"If this thousand-year-old zombie was really killed by my master, then that's amazing." Thinking about my master's deeds, I couldn't help but feel a little excited.

“历史历史，历史就是这样鉴别出来的。这世上的每一个物件。都有过一段属于它的故事。你师父冷燕是湘西第一高手，除了冷燕就只有几个臭道士能杀死这千年僵尸了。但是这尸心是珍贵的宝物，杀死僵尸而不取其心，也只有你师父这种淡薄名利的高手才能做出这种事情。”王澈说。

Hearing Wang Che's words, I couldn't help but recall Leng Yan's indifferent eyes and icy demeanor. Nodding, I said to Wang Che, "It seems your deduction was correct; this Corpse Heart was indeed killed by my master. But... what is the purpose of this Corpse Heart?"

“我们的父亲对鉴别古物有着很强的能力，而我自小跟父亲在一起的时间多些，对鉴别古物也稍微有点能力。这尸心乃剧毒之物，遇阳光瞬间化为飞灰。但若是将其扔到河水中。恐怕那片土地上的百姓可就要遭难了。”

"Plague?" I asked.

“没错，就是瘟疫。因为千年不腐，这尸心的内部早就充满了无数种变异的细菌。而这些细菌都是现实中比较少见的，若是散播出来一时很难早到相克的药物。所以这尸心会造成大灾难。倘若我们将这尸心卖到国外，让国外研制尸心内部的细菌先培养出克制的药物。再将尸心内部的细菌培养传播到某个国家，当这个国家瘟疫肆虐，然后那个公司再出来贩卖特效药。你说效果会怎么样？”王澈问我。

“我草，要是我得了瘟疫整天难受，然后有人跑来卖我特效药说这病能治，那么他要多少钱我就给他多少钱啊。”我说。

“恩。与其留着尸心给那些国际大公司做些丧尽天良的买卖，还不如直接给你的王蛇吃了。当然，这尸心还有着一些其他作用，这千年僵尸的实力已经可以和众神之上的高手一拼了，单是留起来收藏便可以令人吹嘘一生了。不过这尸心毒性重的厉害，若是吃下了这尸心，你的王蛇恐怕要实力大涨了。也许，它还会多出一些特殊的能力。”说到这，王澈的目光变得有些期待了。

“哈哈，太好了，你果然是我的好妹妹！”一开心，我也捧着王澈的小脸亲了一口。

However, after I kissed Wang Che, her pretty face turned even redder in an instant. Then, Wang Che playfully hit me and said, "Brother, I've always liked you. Do you want Che'er to marry no one but you and stay with you forever?"

“澈儿……”听了王澈的话，我的心里顿时涌起一种异样的感觉。难道，这小丫头心里真的对我有意？

But she's my own sister. How could I possibly like my own sister? Thinking of this, I smiled and said to Wang Che, "Then you should never get married and stay by my side forever."

"No way!" Wang Che glared at me and laughed irritably.

We came to this auction simply to find some good medicinal herbs for the King Serpent. But I never expected to find such a precious treasure, and without spending a single penny! If Little Good Man knew that this Corpse Heart was such a valuable treasure, given his businessman nature, he'd probably regret it terribly.

然而，当我们刚刚走出拍卖会的小厅，就看见一大群人看着我们露出了诧异的目光。

第二百一十一章 酒会偶遇

目光在这一刻交织，他们看着我的表情全都变得古怪起来。因为在我身后的是拍卖会的小厅，这里面摆放着很多即将拿出来拍卖的宝物。而在拍卖会门口站立的四个彪形大汉可不是摆设，他们的身上可都是有枪的。因为这次要拍卖的宝物价值会在几千万以上，而这次拍卖所得的钱款都会用于慈善事业，所以他们已经拥有了和银行押运一样的资格，可以在这次活动中配枪。

So, my coming out so openly wasn't to steal anything. Rather, as one of the guys just said, I genuinely went in and picked out my favorite items, just like browsing a farmers market.

而站在我面前用诧异的目光，并且渐渐变得震惊的目光看着我的青年男女们，正是刚才看不起我对我百般羞辱的那些贵族子弟。

It's important to understand that even their parents weren't entitled to VIP seating at this charity auction gala. Their parents brought them not only hoping to snag some reasonably priced items, but also to network with higher-ranking and influential figures.

就像很多骗钱的财经励志书籍中所说，当今最重要的东西是什么，是人脉！有了人脉，就等于有了一切。

现在，他们眼看着我就这么从拍卖会小厅中走出。他们。不由在心里重新衡量起我的位置了。

他是赵皇帝的亲外甥，就算他不是什么世子，地位恐怕都要高出很多吧？而那赵皇帝可是省城头号大哥，能与赵皇帝家的公子结交，若是以后在社会上遇见了什么麻烦。不但分分钟就能搞定，恐怕还能在朋友面前装个大逼啊。

但，这小子到底是赵皇帝的亲外甥还是王家的世子？要知道，就连那叶赫那拉家的皇太后，还有军区大佬的外孙女。以及省城头号大哥赵皇帝，他们都没有特权先进小厅参观一圈。难道，这小子真是王家的世子不成？

一想到小好人对他恭恭敬敬的样子，那些贵族子女们的脸色渐渐变了。

The crescent moon shines over the whole land, bringing joy to some and sorrow to others.

一些青年男女看着身边的侯飞、周宇哲以及陈傲晴心中暗笑，幸好我刚才说话慢了，没有来得及赶上前去嘲讽，得罪了这王家的世子啊。

而侯飞、周宇哲还有陈傲晴三人心中却是说不出的愁苦，这次他们父母带着他们过来是为了让他们结交一些实力相当或者比自己地位更好的角色，而他们不但没什么收获，反而得罪了这地位显赫的王家世子。那境外的王家，可不只是在境外一手遮天啊，他们跟国内的很多超级家族和超级财团都是有着很多千丝万缕的关系的。

周宇哲最为烦恼，他本来就已经得罪了当前如日中天的小好人，现在又得罪了背景比小好人强出无数倍的王家世子。而那小好人是个笑里藏刀的人物，若是他想要收拾他，岂不是分分钟就能让自己死得很难看？

However, Zhou Yuzhe was a man who was used to changing his tune depending on the situation, and his skin was thicker than a city wall. Thinking of this, he immediately rushed over and hugged my leg, "Brother Xi, please forgive me for not recognizing your greatness. I'm too young and naive, and I offended you just now!"

被周宇哲这么一抱，我已经忍不住身躯一阵。然后没好气的看他一眼，偷偷擦了一下额头上的冷汗。

草他吗，这小子吓了我一跳。我还以为他又看不起我以为我是什么小偷，多管闲事想跑过来教训我呢。

But if this kid wants to fight me, I could probably make his nose bleed with a single move. And his friends, I could easily knock them all out of the way.

眼看着这小子卑微的向我求饶，我心里面只是想笑也不生他的气了。虽然他变脸的速度很快。溜须拍马的本事让人有点看不起，但他这么一弄确实让人心里很受用啊。

就微笑着，我抓着他肩膀将他扶了起来，“周兄，刚才那件事我已经不生气了。你不必记在心里，若是你不嫌弃，我们仍然是好兄弟。”

说这句话时，我说的话跟心里想的一样。但被周宇哲听起来，却是另有一番含义。

这周宇哲是什么人，他是个见风使舵喜欢落井下石的小人。人以类聚物以群分。他认识的朋友也大多是这种人。

早就见惯了欺骗和互相伤害，周宇哲看着我面带微笑的样子心中更加惊恐。难道，我是一个和小好人一样笑里藏刀的人物？

我的笑容看起来是那么的自然，笑得是那么的真诚。能露出这种笑容的人，一定是个混迹江湖多年深悉套路的老手。

他认为，我一定在心里恨他恨得要死。现在的笑容只是对他的安抚，正准备趁着他不备对他痛下杀手直接将他打入地狱深谷呢。

Thinking of this, Zhou Yuzhe's eyes reddened. He looked at me with undisguised fear, and said, "Brother Xi, I really didn't mean it. I was blind and thought you were a poor relative of Xiao Hao's family. And my mockery of you was directed at Xiao Hao, not at you. Please don't be angry, please forgive me, okay?"

“我，已经不生你的气了啊……”看着他满眼怀疑的样子，我有些无奈。

“什么！？”一看见我露出无奈的表情了，他心里更加害怕。完了完了，我已经对他不耐烦了，这回他死定了。

Seeing that Zhou Yuzhe didn't say anything, I smiled and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Brother, don't take what happened earlier to heart. I'm really not angry with you anymore. I have some things to do, let's settle the score later! No, no, no. We'll talk about it later!" I even started making slips of the tongue because of Zhou Yuzhe.

当听见我的回头算账之后，周宇哲便确定了那是我的心声。而他眼看着我已经走远，他的心底更是凉到深处。

在我的身边，王澈还故意使坏吓唬了他一下。她趁着我不注意偷偷回头看了周宇哲一眼。然后将纤细的小手横在了雪白的脖子上，接着轻轻划了一下。

“It’s over. I’ve offended the heir of the Wang family, and I’ve gained the favor of Emperor Zhao’s own nephew…” Watching us leave, Zhou Yuzhe slumped to the ground with a thud.

"Zhou Yuzhe, you're finished. I just had someone investigate, and I heard that Emperor Zhao has no wife and no son. Wang Xi, the heir of the Wang family, is his only relative, and he treats Wang Xi better than his own son. You should know how ruthless Emperor Zhao used to be. Anyone who offended Emperor Zhao had their company burned down by his men the very next day." A nobleman immediately added insult to injury, trying to scare Zhou Yuzhe.

“周宇哲，赶紧把这件事告诉你爸妈，让你爸妈带着你出国吧。去南极吧。我听说王家跟海外的华清关系也很不错呢，王家的家主和海外华清的家主是生死兄弟，南极没有华清的势力，你去南极吧……”一名贵族子弟笑道。

“什么！？”听了那些贵族子弟的话，周宇哲的脸色变得如死人一般。

另一边。有三名美女正拿着酒托在晚会中漫步着。她们的身材窈窕，身穿旗袍显得婀娜多姿。这三名美女不是别人，正是岚岚、李佳琪和大校花张诗雪。因为她们三个长得漂亮，身材也是极为标致。而她们今天晚上来到郝仁集团的慈善晚会有着自己的工作，是酒模。

Even though Zhang Shixue comes from a well-off family, and Li Jiaqi and Lanlan also come from good families, they will still need to work after they enter the workforce, and they have already begun to cultivate their ability to support themselves. Today, the Hao Ren Group's charity auction gala, besides selling some treasures, needs some high-quality, beautiful young women to entertain the distinguished guests. Their job is simple: always keep a glass of red wine on a tray so guests can enjoy it at any time. And their pay for today is ridiculously high. They can earn two thousand yuan for just half an evening's work. This salary is enough for them to earn a considerable amount of pocket money.

就看着酒会中的各色成功人士聚在一边谈笑风生，一名名俊男美女在自己的身边走过。张诗雪任人取走一杯红酒，然后走回到红酒区重新在托盘上备一杯红酒。李佳琪，突然拿着空托盘走过来说。“诗雪，我朋友给咱们介绍这工作不错吧？不但轻松额而且赚钱，还能借此机会认识一些青年才俊。你就忘了王熙吧，那王熙虽然有钱但性子太傲。这里的哪一个人不比他强？哪一个人不比他有钱？就算他有点小钱，跟这里的人相比也不过如此吧。你总想着他干什么？”

“我，我不喜欢王熙的……”听了李佳琪的话，张诗雪眉头微微蹙起。此时她显得很没有精神，虽然嘴上说不喜欢那个男生，但是她的心里已经因为那个影子击起了涟漪。

假如那个王熙是个普通人。那该多好。她不喜欢王熙有钱，也不喜欢王熙有势。她，只喜欢王熙看人时不卑不亢的眼神。但，她与现在的王熙差距已经越来越大，她自知自己已经越来越配不上王熙了。

"Jiaqi." Suddenly, a handsome young man stepped out from the crowd. He was dressed in a suit and tie, with a smile characteristic of aristocrats. When he walked up to Li Jiaqi and Zhang Shixue, he glanced at Zhang Shixue, who was even more beautiful than Li Jiaqi, and smiled and nodded at her. Then, he casually picked up a glass of red wine and said, "Jiaqi, the job I introduced you to is pretty good, isn't it? Hao Ren Group is a large conglomerate in our province, and it has always held a leading position in the pharmaceutical industry. The young master of Hao Ren Group is preparing to launch a film company, and has already signed Shan Shan, the most popular star online, as well as some very popular first and second-tier stars in real life. The Hao family has always been committed to charity and provides high benefits to its employees. Two thousand yuan for four hours of work—only Hao Ren Group could afford such a generous offer."

“刘少，谢谢你为我们介绍这么好的工作了。”就对面前的青年微微一笑，接着李佳琪轻轻捅了一下身边的张诗雪介绍道，“诗雪，这就是我经常跟你提起的刘少。刘少的父亲是郝仁集团的部门主管，一年薪水有好几百万。他家里很有钱的，不比那王熙差多少。依我看，你就别总惦记那王熙了，无论是家庭条件还是人品刘少比那王熙只高不低。不如你试试刘少，岂不是更好？”

After hearing Li Jiaqi's words, Liu Shao laughed. Although he appeared humble, his ego was inflated to the extreme. Zhang Shixue, standing before him, was quite beautiful, easily qualifying as a campus beauty. He'd heard her parents were civil servants, barely matching his status. Meanwhile, his father was a department head at the large Hao Ren Group in the provincial capital. What right did Wang Xi, whom they spoke of, have to compare herself to him?

一想到这，刘少便用侵略性的目光向张诗雪鼓鼓的衣服看上一眼。这校花级别的美女，他刘少志在必得！

“王熙！？”然而就在这个时候，张诗雪轻轻唤出了一个名字。惊讶，刘少和李佳琪同时转身看去。
