The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

The Yunyin Hall is an area of ​​the Yunyin Hotel that is rarely open to the outside world. If we use status as an analogy, it is roughly equivalent to the Taishan Pavilion of Longtengju.

When Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi walked out of the elevator hand in hand, they saw the door of Yunyin Hall not far ahead.

When a waiter who was also wearing an exquisite mask saw Xu Yiyu and the other person, he walked towards them slowly, bowed silently to them, and respectfully made a "please" gesture to them.

After following the waiter into the Yunyin Hall, Xu Yiyu immediately discovered that this not-too-large hall had obviously been rearranged. Several people were already seated safely. Upon seeing new guests coming in, they simply nodded indifferently to Xu Yiyu and the others, without showing much enthusiasm for conversation.

What is different from the atmosphere in Huarong Hall downstairs is that the guests at these tables in Yunyin Hall are all very quiet. Some are busy with their own things with their heads down, browsing their phones, or talking to people with them in very low voices. There is almost no communication between the different guests at each table.

The waiter dressed in Xinhua-style clothing led Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi to a seat close to the stage, then left silently without making a sound.

When Xu Yiyu just walked into the hall, he felt that the atmosphere here was a little wrong. After the two of them sat down, Xu Yiyu raised his head slightly to look at the ceiling, only to find that even the ceiling lights in the hall were not turned on. The hall was only illuminated by the antique lanterns on both sides of the aisle. The warm yellow light was dim and hazy, and people could only barely see things.

The seats where the two of them sat were some distance away from the people who had sat down before. Xu Yiyu looked around and found that each table was separated by some ingeniously designed ornaments or screens, leaving a certain amount of privacy for the guests.

Due to the dim light, neither Xu Yiyu nor Lu Sanshi had the time to carefully observe the people who arrived first when they walked into the hall. But after sitting down, Xu Yiyu felt that several pairs of eyes fell on his table intentionally or unintentionally, as if they were observing and pondering his identity.

This treasure auction hosted by the four major families had only eight private rooms on the second floor of Longtengju, and all other guests, regardless of their status or strength, had to sit in the ordinary guest seats on the first floor. However, Xu Yiyu would never be so naive as to think that those sitting in the ordinary guest seats were not very strong. Instead, he would look at these people more cautiously.

"Tongzi, help me retrieve the information of the other guests present besides the four major families, and just pull up a property panel for me to see."

"Okay, host, please wait for three seconds. The system will soon complete the search."

The Chosen System, which had not received any tasks from the host for a long time, was like a chicken with its blood pumped up. It searched the information of the guests present on the entire network with great efficiency, and also used some tricks to obtain some information that they had not made public. It directly generated some personal data panels with simple interfaces that floated in front of Xu Yiyu's eyes, and the search speed was even much faster than usual.

Xu Yiyu read through the information collected by the Heavenly Chosen System at a glance. After having a general understanding of the strength of the guests present, he instructed the Heavenly Chosen System to send the information of these guests to Lu Sanshi for a look.

Seeing Sanshi looking at the phone screen seriously, Xu Yiyu's lips curled slightly, and he was very satisfied with his attitude towards learning.

Even if he couldn't remember all the guests' information, it was always good to have a general impression so that he wouldn't miss out on the things he wanted due to underestimating his opponents during the auction later.

"The richest people from Zhejiang Province, Guangdong Province, Nanhu Province, and Beihu Province are all here. It seems that among the last five auction items, there must be some rare treasures that are never auctioned on ordinary days. Otherwise, with their status, how could they come here in person to compete for a few ordinary items?"

Lu Sanshi noticed that the atmosphere at the scene was different from that downstairs, and reacted very quickly to whisper in Xu Yiyu's ear, lowering his voice to a level that outsiders could not hear at all.

"Baby, I also paid attention to their bidding information a few days ago. The people in Yunyin Hall have only bid a few times before. It seems that they are deliberately saving their strength for the last five lots on the last day. It seems that they are determined to win them."

When Xu Yiyu responded to Sanshi's words, he pretended to glance at the guests at the tables closest to him. Not surprisingly, he found that two female guests were looking at his table without any intention of concealing their gazes.

One of the women was wearing a burgundy satin evening gown and a burgundy mask to cover her face. When she saw that Xu Yiyu had noticed her staring at her, she did not retract her gaze. She just curled her lips and openly picked up the teacup in her hand and raised it towards Xu Yiyu from a distance.

Since the other party was so generous, Xu Yiyu naturally would not show any shyness. She also raised her teacup and toasted back to the woman in the burgundy evening gown.

Compared to the woman in the burgundy evening gown, the other woman in the beige slim fishtail skirt was not so outspoken.

She noticed that after Xu Yiyu looked at her, her face hidden by the white mask seemed to stiffen for a moment, and her eyes darkened. She didn't know what she was thinking of, and she did not meet Xu Yiyu's gaze calmly, but turned her eyes away unwillingly.

Xu Yiyu, who had already known the true identities of the two female guests in advance, naturally knew who they were. Facing their completely different attitudes, she did not find it strange. After raising her eyebrows slightly for a moment, she retracted her gaze.

If Xu's guess was correct, these two ladies should have known her true identity.

Not only that, if the lady in the burgundy dress had no ill will towards him, then the lady in the beige slim fishtail skirt seemed to have some hostility towards him that had been accumulating for some time, but she had hidden it well in the past few days.

Except for Lu Sanshi, no one else noticed the secret confrontation between Xu Yiyu and the two women. Everyone was concentrating on their own work, and it seemed that no one and nothing could attract their attention before the auction of the last five lots began.

With the arrival of wave after wave of guests, the Yunyin Hall gradually filled up.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the four family heads deliberately passed by Xu Yiyu's table before sitting down, and even asked their younger generations to come forward and exchange a few words with Xu Yiyu in a low voice.

At this time, Xu Yiyu, on the surface, was smiling as he dealt with the people from the four major families one by one, but in his heart he was madly cursing them as old foxes.

My goodness, none of the younger generations from the clans sent by the Zhou, Wu, Gu, and Ye families to greet her were the ones she knew before. Isn't this obviously hinting at the target of the guests' concentrated fire later? How cunning!
