Versatile Mage: Summon Gray Wolf at the beginning

Chapter 6: First Meeting with Zhao Manyan

In the next few days, Luo Chen often accompanied Ding Yumian out to relax, and even accompanied Ding Yumian to the hospital to take care of Ding Yumian's grandmother. The two were teased by the elderly for this, just like a young couple...

While taking care of the old man in the hospital, Luo Chen also secretly mixed some spring of life into the water to help the old man recover...

The old man seemed to have noticed the subtle changes in his body. The look he gave Luo Chen became more and more kind and gentle, as if he was looking at his grandson-in-law.

As a result, Ding Yumian often did not appear in the ward with Luo Chen, in order to avoid being teased by the old man and blushing...

At the same time, as the date approached the start of the auction, Luo Chen could clearly feel that the water in the Magic City had become much more turbid.

In the past, it was rare to see foreigners on the streets, but in recent days, they have appeared in large numbers, and as the date gets closer, the number of foreigners appearing on the streets is gradually increasing...

High-level mages, who are rarely seen in normal times, have continued to appear in the Magic City like mushrooms after rain as time goes by...

Saturday evening

Luo Chen and Ding Yumian stood side by side on the Bund.

Looking at Luo Chen who was hesitant to speak, Ding Yumian gave a helpless smile, then turned to look at the sunset in the distance.

The setting sun in the distance dyed the entire sky a gorgeous orange color, which was extremely beautiful...

The light of the sunset illuminated the two people, forming two parallel shadows on the ground...

"Are you going back?"

Facing the setting sun, Ding Yumian couldn't help but ask.

"Well, I knew I couldn't hide it from a psychic mage like you. I've been in the Magic City for a while now, and it's time to go home."

"Really?" Ding Yumian's eyes flashed with a trace of loneliness, but then he cheered up and smiled.

"Thank you for accompanying me these days..."

"You're welcome. Aren't we already friends? Besides, this isn't a farewell forever. We'll see each other sometime in the future..."

Luo Chen responded with a smile.

"correct,"

Luo Chen seemed to suddenly remember something, took out a necklace from his ring and handed it to the other party.

"This is a gift from me to you, I hope you will accept it."

The necklace that Luo Chen handed over was shining with silver-white light in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the gem in the center of the necklace was shining with colors as bright as the stars.

Ding Yumian looked at the exquisite necklace in front of her and couldn't help but hesitate. This necklace looked very valuable...

"If you consider me a friend, please accept it."

"........."

"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent?"

"..."

Ding Yumian did not answer, but just looked at Luo Chen with her charming eyes.

Luo Chen smiled gently, without any stage fright, he took a few steps forward and walked directly in front of Ding Yumian. He opened the necklace in his hand, lifted her long hair, and finally put it on her neck with his own hands.

There is no doubt that this action is actually a bit out of line with their current relationship. When Luo Chen approached, Ding Yumian couldn't help but take half a step back.

But after confirming Luo Chen's actions, she did not retreat, but blushed as she watched Luo Chen put the necklace on her...

The shadows of the two people in the sunset are intertwined at this moment………………

Ten minutes later, Luo Chen looked at Ding Yumian who was walking away, savoring the fragrance left on his nose, and smiled knowingly...

Then, he turned around and walked towards his hotel.

With the necklace and his instructions, no one would be able to see through Ding Yumian's spiritual talent as a victim, and the tragedy in the book would never happen again in the future...

………………

At night, in the auction room on the top floor of the China World Trade Center
Luo Chen, who had changed his appearance and clothes, casually chose a seat in the back row of the auction hall and sat down.

Not long after he sat down, a very handsome man sat down next to Luo Chen.

A head of slightly permed curly semi-long hair, a standard prince face from a fairy tale, and a gorgeous pure white outfit.

It was like two extremes compared to Luo Chen who was dressed in casual clothes...

Luo Chen just took a glance and turned his eyes away.

However, the young man next to Luo Chen couldn't help but smile at Luo Chen's casual attire, and introduced himself in a familiar manner:

"Oh, I thought I was the first one here. Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhao Manyan. May I ask your name, brother?"

Zhao Manyan smiled warmly and looked very friendly.

"No need to bother, my last name is Xiao, and my name is Xiao Yu."

Luo Chen made up a random name to fool people.

"It seems that Brother Xiao is also a man of character. I originally wanted to wear casual clothes like Brother Xiao to meet the world, but unfortunately the elders in the family forced me to wear a formal dress..."

Zhao Manyan shook his head helplessly.

"Oh, it's just an auction, why do you have to be so particular?"

Luo Chen couldn't help but become interested. How could an auction held once every ten days make the Zhao family in the original novel treat it so seriously?

"Hey, didn't your family elders tell you? This auction is not simple. But it doesn't matter if they didn't tell you. We are just here to make up the numbers anyway..."

Zhao Manyan was a little surprised, but then he seemed to have figured something out and continued to explain:
"It would be great if the elders in our family were so open-minded. They are obviously just here to make up the numbers, so why make it so formal?
Letting young people like us come to the auction house is just to let us see the world and expand our network of contacts..."

"really."

Luo Chen nodded and continued what the other party said.

"I knew that you, Brother Xiao, are a wise man. In fact, in this auction, apart from the top forces in the human world, other families and forces are just a foil."

"How do you say this?"

Luo Cheng asked in fake confusion.

"Do I even need to ask? The legendary finale item is said to have the ability to restore a person's youth by ten years, and can make a forbidden spell mage who is in a declining period return to the peak...

To be honest, although this treasure is precious, it is not as priceless as the Emperor-level spirit essence. After all, it can only restore the state of ten years ago, and it is ultimately unable to escape the fate of a hundred years of lifespan...

However, the value behind this treasure is simply incredible. After all, judging from the information leaked from this auction house, the name of this treasure should be Life Potion instead of Fountain of Life!
As long as we find the person who gave away the Fountain of Life, he must have mastered the secret recipe of this potion. Finding him and catching him is equivalent to possessing the secret recipe!
With the secret recipe, it is possible to go further and break the shackles of a hundred years of lifespan.

This is a matter of national destiny! No country or force will let go at this moment!

By then, haha..."
