It was a great show!

This Secretary Zhang truly knew how to enact a great play for all the people witnessing it. His words, screams, and slaps could seem like he was reproaching this cousin of his, but he was in fact saving him.

After all, if this cousin of his continued further, and escalated the issue then his end would be a nice sleep with the fishes in the river.

Both Cui Xie, and the Director of the Auction House weren\'t people that could be easily offended, and even more so from a lowly manager that was working as a bouncer at the door.

For some reason he didn\'t doubt that should he leave his cousin\'s punishment in Cui Xie\'s hands, then even he would feel the pain of that.

Fortunately, he was quite the intelligent and capable guy, so he had already acted like this, helping that cousin of his dodge the storm ahead.

Cui Xie didn\'t need to be reminded by Eric that this was a fully staged play, but at the same time, he felt like he couldn\'t force the issue by himself.

No matter what, differently from Eric, Cui Xie had quite a few things to think and consider before he actually took action.

His every action was monitored by the Cui Family. They were already pressuring him hard enough, he didn\'t have the luxury of making enemies with the Auction House.

For that reason, he left the fate of the stupid manager to the Director of the Auction House. As for the man himself, he was looking at this situation with a complicated gaze.

He didn\'t want to antagonize Cui Xie, but at the same time, he didn\'t want to charge his Secretary Zhang heavily, because he was one of the most capable subordinates he had.

As a wealthy patron who cared more about counting the money and playing around, he had left almost everything in the hands of Secretary Zhang, and he had never disappointed him.

Had it been anyone else but Cui Xie he would have already sided with the guy and told the guest to disappear.

But Cui Xie was special, his Father had personally told him to keep a good relationship with Cui Xie and try to find out about his Master.

Someone who could concoct those pills was by no means an ordinary expert, this much he understood as well.

Seeing Eric accompanying Cui Xie he already had an inclining toward Eric being the person he was looking for, but he wasn\'t fully certain.

It was a good thing that Secretary Zhang was quite the sensible guy and acted the play he did giving him slight leverage to save the situation.

The only problem was that despite Secretary Zhang\'s play, his stupid cousin seemed unwilling to bend the knee and apologize, making him extremely angry.

If looks could kill someone, then he would surely have killed this guy a few times already for what he was doing.

"Young Master Cui Xie, I am truly sorry for my unbecoming manner, and the way I behaved! I apologize and swear to never do something similar again!"

No matter how unwilling the poor manager was, at the end of the day he couldn\'t go against Secretary Zhang\'s guidelines as he bowed and apologized.

Cui Xie saw all this with a clean eye of contempt, as he didn\'t answer the apology. He just looked towards the Director of the Auction House and asked,

"Is this how you intend to deal with this issue!?"

"Ha!? Yea-yeah it is!"

"Sigh~! Very well then!"

After a deep sigh, and acceptance of the result, Cui Xie just lead the way for Eric and the other two behind him, as they entered the Auction House.

That last part of the situation was led by Eric personally, he had guided Cui Xie to act like that and say those words.

The director was caught unprepared and startled by the question, and then was shocked by the answer.

He didn\'t understand what Cui Xie meant with those words, as he could just look at Cui Xie\'s back disappearing into the hallway.

For some reason, he couldn\'t help but feel that something had escaped his grasp, even though he had no idea of what it was.

Still, the matter wasn\'t over yet, as he turned toward Secretary Zhang,

"This is enough from you Secretary Zhang, let us return inside! As for this cousin of yours, I don\'t need to teach you how to act, do I!?"

"No, no Master I will personally punish, and send him to apologize to Young Master Cui Xie once again! We can\'t allow to lose him!"

"Huh!? Why would we lose him!? Does he have any other place that will be willing to sell his pills if we don\'t!? Who would dare to oppose us!?"

\'This idiot! If it weren\'t for his family, and his background, he would surely be begging in the streets!\'

This was what Secretary Zhang was thinking inside, but he clearly didn\'t voice those thoughts out loud. After all, it was precisely this disposition of his that he had been able to save his cousin.

Cui Xie was clearly dissatisfied with the way that their Auction House had behaved and dealt with the issue, and if he didn\'t show his sincerity, then he was never going to sell more of those pills in this place.

As for who would dare to take those pills and sell them, the answer was more than obvious, everyone!

Just knowing about the great importance and magic of those pills, a lot of people would most probably be ready to rob and kill to get their hands on those pills.

Well, it was useless and counter-productive to explain this issue to the Director so he decided to act himself upon this issue.

At this moment, his eyes landed on the genesis of this issue who was none other than Young Master Cui Hu.

"What the fu*ck are you still doing here!? Isn\'t the trouble you have instigated so far enough!? You better leave and never appear in front of me otherwise, I will forget that you are the Cui\'s descendant!"

"Secretary Zhang~!"

"Fu*ck off! Disappear from my sight if you don\'t want to suffer the consequences!"

Young Master Cui Hu was surprised and startled by what he heard, but seeing that it was impossible to make his stand through reason and asslicking, he resorted to threatening back,

"Secretary Zhang, you better behave otherwise…"

"Otherwise you what, you little stupid pri*ck!? You think you and your Cui Family can deal with me!? You better run and run fast to your father\'s side otherwise don\'t blame me for being rude!"

"Yoouuu…"

"Just fu*ck off, will you~!?"

Young Master Cui Hu was way displeased with what just happened, but no one would be willing to listen to him or help him in taking revenge.

For that reason, he turned around as a swift fierce beast and started walking away in great overbearing angry steps.

"There is nothing to see any more folks, the show is over! Another manager of ours will be at the door to control the invitations!"

Then when he turned around to enter the Auction House as well, he actually leaned over to the cousin\'s ear as he said in a whisper,

"You better take care properly of this issue or help me God!"

With that said, he immediately started thinking of how to show his sincere apology to Cui Xie, and that mysterious guy beside him, unaware of the expression that appeared on the cousin\'s face.

After all, with the way he said it, and the tone he used, it was impossible for the stupid manager to not misunderstand the intentions behind those words.

…

As for Eric, Cui Xie, and the two ladies, they continued their way under the lead of one of the servant ladies towards their private booth, and it was quite the spacious place.

Not only was there enough place for them to sit comfortably on the couch and the chairs around, but there was even a table with all kinds of fruits, a minibar, and even a private waitress.

"Young Master Cui Xie, this is a simple booklet with all the objects available in this Auction, I hope that they are to your satisfaction.

Besides these, our Auction House also has 3 surprise articles, that only the Director himself knows about!"

"That\'s great!"

"Anything else I might serve you with!?"

"Huh!? No, not at the moment!"

The beautiful waitress had a complicated gaze on her face, especially since she was looking at him every now and then.

But he didn\'t really care about her right now, he was more focused on the articles of the auction, and their authenticity.

This Auction truly didn\'t disappoint him, as besides the antiques and rare articles, there were even some really old and good herbs.

The greatest point of all this was a simple notification window from the Legacy System,

!!! The Legacy System can recognize the authenticity and value of an article as long as it\'s covered by the Host\'s Spirit Sense!

This was a great finding for Eric, because despite his spirit sense, and sharp eyes, he was unable to recognize a fake from an authentic.

Like this, he wouldn\'t waste his money with fake and meaningless articles. Happy with the prospect of that, he looked forward to the Auction itself.

…

In the meantime, the stupid manager had actually entered the kitchen of the Auction House, as he was talking to two other people.

"Are you sure about this!?"

"Yes, don\'t worry! This is my cousin\'s order…"
