Quick Wear: The Villain's Beloved

After dinner, Lan Qian and Mo Chen went to the auction together.

The villa is located halfway up a mountain. It takes an hour to drive from the villa to the auction site. The driver is a human, and he is extremely respectful to Mo Chen.

Lan Qian looked at the driver and then at Mo Chen, becoming more and more curious about his identity in human society.

"Mo Chen, what are we going to the auction for?"

"Going to bid on something?"

Sitting in the car, Lan Qian asked him casually.

Before, Mo Chen only told her that he was going to attend the auction, but did not say what he was going to do after arriving. Based on her understanding of him, he would not be interested in these things unless he had his own purpose.

"Miss Lan guessed right."

The two of them sat in the back seat of the car, one on the left and the other on the right, with a considerable distance between them. Although Mo Chen took good care of her, he never did anything inappropriate. He was gentle and polite, as if he really regarded her as his savior.

He smiled gently and said to her:

"Tonight's auction does have what I want."

He had no intention of hiding this from her. He had originally wanted to tell her at the auction, but since the girl had asked, it was okay to tell her now: "I heard that there was a mermaid tear at the auction."

"Mermaid Tears?"

Lan Qian was slightly surprised.

Mermaid's Tears are not simply tears shed by mermaids.

According to the original owner's memory, not every mermaid in the mermaid tribe can have mermaid tears, and mermaid tears are the most precious thing for mermaids. A mermaid can only have one at most in its lifetime.

However, the original owner had just reached adulthood, and the tribesmen did not tell her much about the mermaid's tears.

She had no idea what kind of mermaid would have mermaid tears, or how they were produced.

"How could a mermaid's tears be auctioned?" Lan Qian frowned and analyzed, "Could it be that a mermaid was captured by humans?"

In terms of time, it is still the early stage of the plot.

Has humanity already begun to attack other races?

Mo Chen observed her expression calmly. Seeing that she did not look relaxed, he lowered his thick eyelashes imperceptibly, and spoke in a gentle tone that seemed a little puzzled:

"Why do you say that? Although the various tribes don't interfere with each other, the mermaids and humans are not completely disconnected. The mermaid tears may have been auctioned off by the mermaids themselves."

"Not too possible."

Lan Qian shook her head.

"Mermaid tears are rare to begin with, and are the most precious thing for every mermaid. It is impossible for them to be auctioned."

"By the way, what do you want the mermaid's tears for?"

She remembered this.

As far as she knows, although mermaid tears are precious, they seem to be just beautiful and have no special functions?

Facing the girl's curious gaze, Mo Chen's eyes moved slightly, and the next moment a smile appeared on his handsome face: "I heard that mermaid tears are a precious medicinal ingredient of top quality."

"You are hurt?"

Lan Qian looked at him quickly.

When we rescued him before, he had no external injuries.

"No."

Seeing the worry in the girl's eyes, Mo Chen's smile deepened: "Just collect them first, in case of emergency."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the girl heaved a sigh of relief.

In an instant, my heart seemed to be touched.

"Mermaid's tears have this effect?"

Although Lan Qian was confused, she had no choice but to accept that she didn't know much about Mermaid's Tears, so it might be true.

But she doesn't have the mermaid's tears now.

……

The auction venue was in a bustling club in the city center. Lan Qian followed Mo Chen out of the car. Someone immediately came up to the door of the club and greeted them respectfully: "Mr. Mo, you are here."

The visitor glanced at Lan Qian who was standing next to Mo Chen. His face showed amazement and surprise at her presence. After all, Mr. Mo had never had a female companion. But with such a stunning beauty...it was no wonder.

He didn't dare to look any further and said quickly:

"Please come in, please come in."

Mo Chen nodded at him gently.

He took Lan Qian's hand like a gentleman and walked into the club.

"Let's go."

There seemed to be bodyguards in every place in the club, and the security looked very tight. Lan Qian followed Mo Chen through a long corridor with a row of masks hanging on each side of the corridor.

Mo Chen took off two masks and handed one to her.

Lan Qian looked up: "Do you need to wear a mask?"

"This is the rule of the auction."

Mo Chen put on his mask. Seeing that she was staring at the mask in a daze, he reached out and gently took the mask from her hand and put it on her tenderly: "The human world is complicated. No one will recognize you if you put on a mask."

"Ok."

Lan Qian took his hand again and continued walking towards the corridor. At the end of the corridor there was an inconspicuous small door, which was guarded by two bodyguards wearing sunglasses.

Seeing the guests coming, they opened the small door respectfully.

Inside the small door is a staircase leading down.

Lan Qian and Mo Chen walked down the stairs and turned a few more corners. She didn't know if it was because she was not used to walking with her tail turning into legs, but it felt like they had been walking for a long time.

Finally, she saw a big door.

Inside the gate is a huge meeting place.

There was a large platform in the center of the venue. The host was already in place and the venue was filled with people. One could see the anticipation and excitement on their faces, as if something exciting was going to happen soon.

A servant led Mo Chen and her to a special box.

Lan Qian observed it.

Neither the secluded location nor the format of the auction seemed like an ordinary auction.

What was Mo Chen's purpose in bringing her here?
