The auction of the sword worth hundreds of thousands of dollars has begun, but Jiang An remains silent at this moment, in stark contrast to the enthusiastic bidding of everyone.

Lin Xixi on the side clearly showed her desire for the sword and was eager to try it out.

"Teacher Jiang, why don't you raise your placard?" Lin Xixi asked anxiously, "If you don't raise your placard, the sword will be bought by someone else!" Her love for the sword was beyond words.

However, Jiang An seemed unusually calm. "This kind of thing cannot be rushed, especially when the auction just starts. Raising the bid too early will only push up the price." He explained that some things require patience and cannot be rushed.

Lin Xixi nodded after hearing this, "Then I will entrust you with all the powers, Teacher Jiang." She leaned her head on Jiang An's arm affectionately, "You won't let this sword fall into the hands of others, will you?"

Jiang An smiled and touched her hair, "Don't worry, I will definitely bring this sword home."

"I'm counting on you, Teacher Jiang." Lin Xixi looked at him trustingly.

"No problem, leave it to me." Jiang An was full of confidence.

As the auction progressed, the atmosphere became increasingly heated and prices continued to rise.

Just when the host announced the second auction, Jiang An decisively raised his hand and raised the price by two levels at once.

This action immediately attracted the attention of the entire audience, and even Mr. Zhang, who was watching the game on the side, gave him an approving look.

Jiang An understood that instead of wasting time and pushing up the price in a long bidding process, it would be better to act decisively at the critical moment.

Sure enough, Jiang An’s bid discouraged other bidders.

Finally, the host made the final decision, and the sword belonged to Jiang An. Lin Xixi jumped up excitedly, and Jiang An took the opportunity to kiss her deeply.

After the kiss, Jiang An playfully asked Lin Xixi a question: "Can you tell me what the use of kissing my mouth is?"

Lin Xixi was stunned and looked at him in surprise, "Isn't this an expression of "I love you?" she asked back.

Jiang An shook his head slightly and asked seriously, "What? If you don't kiss me, you don't love me?"

Lin Xixi was speechless for a moment, but Jiang An smiled and said, "Okay, I'll leave this question to you. Report to me when you figure it out."

With the end of the second half of the auction, today's event came to an end.

People left in an orderly manner, and Jiang An quietly found Mr. Zhang and planned to return his bank card.

However, to Jiang An's surprise, the old man rejected him. "Take this card first," the old man said, "give it to me when it's convenient for you. Take your man back quickly and don't stay here too long, lest he finds you."

Although Jiang An wanted to say something, the old man firmly pushed him out.

Jiang An and Lin Xixi hurried back home with the sword they had just won at the auction.

They found that the lights in Zhang Zhejie and Lin Qingyou's home were still off and it seemed that they had not returned.

"Look," Jiang An said, "these two guys always say how tired they are at the company, but now it's already so late and they haven't come back yet. They must be out playing again."

"Come on," Lin Xixi glanced at him gently, "They must have other things to do. Never mind, let's go in and take a look. I can't help but want to touch this sword."

Jiang An responded, and then the two returned home. As soon as they entered the house, Lin Xixi couldn't wait to run to the middle of the living room with the sword box in her arms. She carefully opened the box, and when she saw the sword inside, a glimmer of surprise flashed in her eyes.

This sword exceeded Lin Xixi's expectations in both shape and craftsmanship. What surprised her even more was that the protagonist's signature was engraved on the sword.

"Oh my god, Teacher Jiang, is this a hidden surprise?" Lin Xixi played with the sword, her excitement was beyond words. Jiang An looked at her so happy, his eyes were full of smiles.

"This sword is indeed very beautiful," Jiang An said, "but the most important thing is that you like it. Let's find a suitable place to put it, what do you think?"

Lin Xixi nodded repeatedly, and suddenly remembered the goose-wing knife she brought back from the north. "Why not put them in a glass box?"

She felt that the sword and the knife matched each other very well. In addition, one was an ancient artifact that had experienced actual combat, and the other was a modern handicraft. The combination of the two gave her a wonderful feeling of traveling through time and space.

“That’s a good suggestion.”

Jiang An smiled slightly, and the two of them immediately started to act.

When the sword and the goose-wing knife were placed together in the glass box, the feeling of interweaving time and space, and blending the old and the new really made people feel a kind of indescribable charm.

"Teacher Jiang, isn't it beautiful?" Lin Xixi became more and more satisfied the more she looked at it.

Jiang An nodded heavily, "It's really good. I didn't expect you to have such a good taste in this area."

"Don't forget, I'm the first place in our college's competition." Lin Xixi smiled proudly, "You know, it's not easy to get first place in an institution of our level."

Jiang An tapped her head gently, "Little girl, don't be too proud. I tell you, don't mention your honor in the academy anymore."

"Why?" Lin Xixi pouted in dissatisfaction, "That's also my honor."

Jiang An anticipated Lin Xixi's reaction, so he was already prepared on how to comfort her.

He said gently, "If we were still in school, we might be able to show off our past honors. But now that we have entered society, it is better to keep those things low-key, hide them where others can't see them, and show them when they are really needed."

Lin Xixi was a little confused, "Then others won't know anything?"

Jiang An explained: "In fact, all your honors are recorded in the archives. Those who really need to know about us will naturally check them out."

"For those who don't need to know us in depth, no matter how much you say, it will be in vain. Moreover, excessive showing off will make people think we are exaggerated. Keeping some mystery and letting others slowly explore can also increase our charm."

Lin Xixi blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Jiang An in confusion, "Don't they say that only men need to remain mysterious? If a girl becomes mysterious, won't she become an old witch?"

Jiang An was surprised by Lin Xixi's idea, "Who told you that? Mystery is not the same as old witch."

Lin Xixi answered seriously: "I heard a host say this before. He said that girls should show all their advantages, attract everyone's attention, and become the brightest one in the crowd. Regardless of whether others are willing to be friends with you or not, you should make them pay attention to you at all times."

After hearing this, Jiang An couldn't help but sigh at the influence of toxic chicken soup on the Internet.

He tried to stay calm and said to Lin Xixi: "Xixi, you can't be swayed by these online comments. Everyone has their own lifestyle and values. You should stick to your principles instead of blindly following the trend."

However, Xiao Lin disagreed. "Teacher Jiang, if you think what he said is wrong, then I won't watch it. I think that girl is quite interesting. She always makes these things into skits, which is quite funny."

Jiang An revealed the truth: "So you didn't come here to listen to him, you were just following the drama, right?" Lin Xixi no longer concealed it and laughed at him, "Okay, Mr. Jiang? I'm not kidding you anymore."

"Okay, it's getting late," Jiang An said, "Let's pack up and have a good sleep tonight. I have a surprise prepared for you tomorrow."

"Are there any surprises tomorrow?" Lin Xixi was instantly surprised. He wanted to know what kind of surprise Jiang An had prepared for him. But he also knew that no matter how he asked, Teacher Jiang would not reveal it.

Lin Xixi took a deep breath, calmed herself down, then smiled and pulled Jiang An towards the bedroom.

Looking at Lin Xixi's appearance, Jiang An could already foresee how wonderful tonight would be.

In particular, he noticed that there were several new packs of stockings on the bedside table in the bedroom.

As the saying goes, food, sex and nature are all part of one's nature. Jiang An was simply in ecstasy that night.

He didn't get out of bed until noon the next day.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Jiang An found that Lin Xixi was not around.

This situation is very rare for him, usually he wakes up first while Xiaolin is still lying in bed. What happened today?
