Chapter 297
Since Xia Mian felt something strange and wanted to find out, he would accompany her to find out.

Zhou Yun attached great importance to entertaining Xia Mian and others, and went to host the dinner himself.

Xia Mian and the others were wandering around near the auction house with Xie Chengming.

While looking at the environment in the auction house, Xia Mian asked casually, "Does the owner of your auction house often travel?"

Xie Chengming nodded, "Yes, in order to spread the reputation of our auction house, our owner has been trying to find a way to bring back more rare and valuable things."

"He is the owner of your auction house. He has been doing all these things himself?" Xia Mian raised her eyebrows. Although there was a smile in her eyes, she was more or less skeptical about Xie Chengming's words.

Xie Chengming smiled, "The owner is a restless person, and he trusts me a lot, he doesn't like to stay in the auction house..."

Xia Mian raised the corners of her lips thoughtfully, "I can see that Mr. Zhou really trusts you, Mr. Ming."

Xia Mian wanted to see the black box, but without further ado, Zhou Yun asked Xie Chengming to take her there.

To show such a rare thing to outsiders, except for him himself to take it with him, Xie Chengming is probably the only one who can rest assured.

Xie Chengming smiled faintly, "Our auction house has been able to develop to the present, and the owner has paid a lot."

Xia Mian pursed her lips and said nothing, she didn't want to care about what Zhou Yun paid for, all she knew was that Zhou Yun kept her and held a banquet for her, this matter was tricky everywhere.

"The owner wants to keep Missy for a meal, probably because he wants to make friends with the Protoss." Xie Chengming turned his eyes slightly, and looked not far away, "Our auction house has never been in line with any sect, but after what happened today , Brother Yun may have also realized that if we are in this line of work, if we don’t attach ourselves to any sect, we will probably be wiped out by an unknown force one day, and our family property will be stolen..."

When Xie Chengming said this, he smiled wryly, if Xia Mian hadn't been present today, those people from the Artifact Sect might have succeeded.

Xia Mian narrowed her eyes slightly and didn't say much.

Lu Zechuan glanced at Xie Chengming lightly.

Xie Chengming was really loyal to Zhou Yun, and he always said good things about Xie Chengming.

But they never thought about what would happen to them now if Xia Mian hadn't discovered the secret of the black box when they went to the secret room...

Xie Chengming led Xia Mian and others around for a while, and Zhou Yun sent someone over to call them over.

Said the dinner party was ready.

Xie Chengming didn't delay for a moment, and took Xia Mian and others to the place where Zhou Yun hosted the banquet with a smile.

Zhou Yun set up the banquet for Xia Mian and others in his courtyard.

The courtyard has a beautiful environment, with rockery, pools, fake waterfalls rushing down on the rockery, koi swimming in the pool, towering phoenix trees and bushes in the courtyard.

Holding a banquet in such a place is quite interesting.

When Xia Mian and others entered the yard, there were several bonfires burning in the middle of the yard, and a few sheep were roasting on the fire.

As soon as Xia Mian and the others entered the door, the smell of roasted lamb hit their faces.

The smile on Xia Mian's face suddenly became stronger, "Mr. Zhou is really thoughtful!"

Roasted whole lamb is only popular in the modern world. Many practitioners in the Taoist world do not eat at all.

Zhou Yun actually thought of roasting a whole lamb.

Zhou Yun smiled, and his smile was very sincere, "Miss Xia, you have helped us a lot in the auction house, but I just treated you to a meal, it is not worth Miss Xia's heart!"

While Zhou Yun was speaking, servants from the auction house had already begun to arrange dishes on the banquet table.

All dishes are modern and appetizing.

Xia Mian narrowed her eyes slightly, "Is there anyone here who is good at cooking, Mr. Zhou?"

Zhou Yun smiled, "There are some ordinary people in the auction house. They have no cultivation and still need to eat."

Xia Mian nodded, but didn't ask the bottom line.

Sitting at a banquet table with Lu Zechuan, someone from the auction house had already poured wine into their glasses.

Zhou Yun greeted warmly, "Miss Xia, I respect you!"

Zhou Yun said, raised his wine glass, and walked up to Xia Mian.

"She doesn't know how to drink." Lu Zechuan said suddenly, raised his glass and touched Zhou Yun, "I'll drink for her."

Zhou Yun froze for a moment, then laughed, "Miss Xia, is this your partner?"

Lu Zechuan has been following Xia Mian, not talking much, but following him like a shadow, and Xia Mian's attitude towards him is obviously different from others.

Zhou Yun couldn't help but asked one more question.

Xia Mian nodded, "It is."

Lu Zechuan's black eyes sank slightly, "She is my fiancee."

Zhou Yun laughed when he heard the words, "Sure enough, she is a talented man and a beautiful woman! When you two get married, you must send me a letter, and I will definitely send you a big gift!"

Lu Zechuan's expression softened a little, "It must."

After Lu Zechuan drank the glass of wine, Zhou Yun went to respect Gu Zhi and Xia Weichang in turn.

Although the two of them were surprised by Zhou Yun's actions, they didn't show Zhou Yun's face due to their identities as guests.

It's just that both of them just tasted it.

In unfamiliar places, trying to keep themselves awake has become the basic rule for them to survive in the Taoist world.

Regarding the actions of Gu Zhi and Xia Weichang, Zhou Yun didn't say much.

After a round of toasting, he sat back in his seat, and began to greet the people in the auction house to share the mutton with everyone.

Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan got a whole leg of lamb at the table, and Gu Zhi and Xia Weichang also got a whole leg of lamb.

Xia Weichang was fine, but the three of Xia Mian were deeply touched.

Although they can be regarded as half of the Taoist world, they don't do bigu. During this period of time in the Taoist world, what they eat and drink is quite sloppy!

They haven't seen such decent food for a long time.

After a brief hesitation, Gu Zhi moved first.

She tore off a piece of mutton, put it in her mouth and chewed it carefully, the unique delicious flavor of mutton blossomed in her mouth, Gu Zhi almost cried.

Finally, I can eat pure roast lamb again.

Xia Mian exchanged glances with Lu Zechuan, picked up the chopsticks, and slowly tasted the roast lamb in front of him.

The taste is not as good as that of the current world, but in this world where most people don't eat, the taste is quite good.

"What does Miss Xia think of this taste?" Zhou Yun asked with a smile.

Xia Mian looked up at him, feeling that Zhou Yun's smile was a bit deep.

"The taste is not bad..." Xia Mian answered honestly, then suddenly changed the subject, "That's right, there seems to be something else in this meat."

The smile on Zhou Yun's face deepened, "As expected, she is worthy of being the eldest lady of the Protoss, and she feels very accurate!"
