Lin Yuning tightly gripped the handkerchief in her hand, "Where exactly did you get these?"
The楼主 was extremely mysterious. She had tried multiple times through intermediaries to meet him for the medicine, but he had acted aloof, refusing to see her even when she revealed her identity.
Now, why would he casually hand over such an important免拍牌, representing his identity, to Su Yunmo!
"That's none of Princess Lian's concern," Su Siqi retracted the免拍牌 and turned his gaze to the stage, "The凝肌丹 belongs to us now."
"No! I saw this first, it can't be theirs!" Lin Yuning said furiously.
The pill was rare, and if she didn't get it this time, it would take much more effort and resources to find another.
She had already spent a lot of money to book a VIP room for today's auction.
Even though the Prince was treating her better now, she still couldn't be completely at ease.
If she spent so much gold and silver and still couldn't restore her appearance, the Prince might get tired of her and seek retribution someday.
Wouldn't that mean she'd have to go back to how things were before?
Lin Yuning recalled her life from two months ago, her heart clenching, "I bid first, the deal is done, you can't go back on it!"
"Princess Lian, I haven't dropped the hammer yet, so it's not a confirmed sale." The auctioneer put down the hammer and closed the lid of the wooden box.
"The rules of this establishment state that once the免拍牌 is presented, everything in the building can be handled by the cardholder."
Let alone an unconfirmed sale, even if it was confirmed, the item could still be taken back.
Lin Yuning watched as the item was taken away and sent to the third floor, almost grinding her teeth to dust.
The little dumpling propped her chin on her hand, "Auntie, I'm really sorry, Mo Mo's butt hurts these two days and she needs medicine to apply. You'll have to wait for next time."
Lin Yuning was furious!
Linlang poured a cup of tea and handed it over, "Princess, don't be angry. Although the medicine is rare, it's not impossible to find other ways. We can try to find the seller again."
"You say it so easily, it's not that simple!" Lin Yuning waved her hand, knocking over the tea set.
The window on the third floor closed, leaving only a crack.
The servant had already delivered the凝肌丹, and the excited clamor of people could be heard from the private room. xxs1
Linlang lowered her head and said nothing more.
Lin Yuning took a deep breath and clenched her fist, "I remember you can control beasts."
She had to get the凝肌丹 today, no matter what.
"What does the Princess want to do? You should know that I've also made a move against that child before, but it was unsuccessful." Linlang didn't believe the same method could be used again.
It would be a failure sooner or later.
Lin Yuning's gaze fell on the snow wolf cage on the stage, "This time, it's not just Su Yunmo. She can't protect everyone."
Linlang's heart skipped a beat.
Once the snow wolf was released, in such a narrow private room, innocent bystanders would be affected. Su Yunmo was one thing, but the children with her were not at fault.
"What are you waiting for? Make your move." Lin Yuning became impatient.
Linlang glanced at the private room on the third floor, her eyes complex, "The Princess said Su Yunmo used the Su family's power to find a secret technique to steal the Glazed Lock, is that true?"
Lin Yuning's fingers stiffened, her expression turning cold, "Are you questioning me? Don't forget, you saw Su Yunmo use her abilities with your own eyes."
It was true that Linlang had seen it with her own eyes, and if there was a secret technique that could steal others' abilities, it was somewhat believable, as the world was vast and not all secret techniques were widely known.
But it was also true that she had suffered a backlash for directly using her abilities against Su Yunmo that day.
Even if it was a secret technique to steal, it couldn't completely turn something fake into something real.
She carried the blood of the Wu clan, and only true Southern Xinjiang royal bloodlines evoked a submissive instinct.
Lin Yuning sneered, clasped her hands, and leaned back in her chair, saying sarcastically, "What? So the Southern Xinjiang Princess didn't marry my father, but Su Qingtian?"
Linlang froze.
That was right. Based on the time of the Princess's marriage, Su Yunmo's age didn't match. Moreover, after she arrived in the capital, she had heard that Su Yunmo was Su Qingtian's illegitimate son.
A young princess would never have an illegitimate child with someone else, and the only legitimate daughter in the Lin family who was betrothed by the late Emperor was the one before her.
Lin Yuning took a string of beads from her waist and threw it over, "Since you think I lied to you, then I don't need to keep this thing."
The beads hit Linlang's chest. Linlang caught them in shock and knelt down in fear, "Please forgive me, Master, I was foolish."
She held the beads with both hands and offered them forward, her forehead tense with bulging veins.
Lin Yuning merely looked at her coldly. After she had knelt for a while, she took the beads back.
"This is the thing your clan relies on for survival. Since you gave it to me, you acknowledge me as your master. This is the last time I will tolerate this. If there is a next time, I will not be lenient."
"Thank you, Princess." Linlang breathed a sigh of relief and stood by the bed.
A red light flickered in her eyes, and she muttered softly.
"Awooo!" The snow wolf suddenly let out a roar and slammed against the cage door.
With a 'bang!', the cage door, secured by chains, was knocked open.
The auction was interrupted, and screams erupted from both upstairs and downstairs.
"The snow wolf is out, run!" Everyone scrambled to escape in panic.
The auctioneer desperately banged his hammer on the table, "Calm down, everyone, stay calm, don't panic!"
But his words were drowned out by the chaotic noise of the crowd before they could be heard.
The snow wolf was out of its cage and leaped onto the auctioneer.
The private room on the third floor opened its window, and Su Siyuan was the first to poke his head out, "Ahhh! The snow wolf is out!"
Linlang pointed her right hand towards the window of the private room on the third floor.
The snow wolf roared, shook off the auctioneer, and leaped up.
It jumped five meters high, reaching the second floor, and then, using the window opposite the second floor, it leaped to the window of the private room where Su Yunmo and the others were on the third floor.
Su Siyuan only saw the snow wolf suddenly grow larger before his eyes, its claws lunging towards his eyes. He couldn't react in time, frozen in place with no chance to run.
His collar was grabbed, and Su Siqi pulled him behind him.
With a 'bang!', the snow wolf burst through the window and blocked the door.
Tang Jiu rushed over upon hearing the commotion. Seeing the snow wolf enter the room, he cried out that it was bad. While ordering the servants to evacuate the guests, he ran towards the main house.
Lin Yuning watched the chaotic scene and sneered.
This was the consequence of opposing her!
"The snow wolf went to the private room on the third floor, hurry and save them! Save them!" The auctioneer got up from the ground, clutching his injured arm, and shouted.
Since the children in that private room had a免拍牌, they must be favored by the楼主, and they absolutely could not be harmed.
Servants rushed forward one after another, but before they could even enter, they were driven back by the snow wolf's roar.
One of them drew his sword to strike, but his wrist was bitten off.
The snow wolf's mouth was stained with bright red blood, and droplets of blood dripped onto the ground. Its glowing green eyes fixed on Su Yunmo.
Su Sizhuo immediately hugged the little dumpling, turning sideways to hold her tightly.
"Mo Mo!" Su Siyuan also quickly stepped forward to shield Su Yunmo, spreading his arms as much as possible to protect his sister in his elder brother's arms.
Su Siqi remained silent but gave the mute servant a look. The mute servant stood guard over Su Siyuan.
