The excited faces of the men and women below the stage, as well as the disdainful faces of the girls who were tightly pressing themselves down, all flashed past Bai Xiao's eyes.

… ….

"Let go." The girl seemed a little displeased, trying hard to shake off the man's shackles.

"You can do whatever you want, so why bother with me?" The girl said bitterly.

Every time a man came to a place like this, he would have to bring her along. Even though he knew he wasn't willing to come, he still had to bring her along. He didn't know if the guy was trying to remind him of something, just to make him remember that he was also auctioned off here.

The girl couldn't explain it, why did men always bring him to the auction so that she could remember his good points? Or was he looking for someone better? If he met her, would he treat her like how he treated himself?

Even though he didn't save anyone else once, the girl couldn't help but feel apprehensive. She didn't know when he would save another girl, but he gave her all of his patience.

"You …" The man couldn't hold back his anger, and his expression changed. He had treated her so well, but he still ended up being charged with doing whatever she wanted.

The man couldn't help feeling angry. Even if she wanted to go to school, he agreed. She said she didn't want to be taught by a tutor at home and wanted to go to school to feel as young as a girl of the same age.

The man let her go no matter how worried he was. He was afraid that if she went to school, he would fall in love with a boy around her age and would hate her even more.

Even so, he couldn't bear to see the girl suffer under the hunger strike. He had no choice but to agree.

However, unexpectedly, he was still unable to get anything from her.

"Haven't you always been like this? "I'll follow you wherever you go." The girl's tone was depressed and she couldn't help but complain. Her clean and beautiful face was accentuated by her straight black hair, making her seem even whiter.

"Am I always like this in your eyes?" When the man heard the girl's words, he couldn't help but get a little angry. No one would feel good about treating her like this.

"22 million." Is there anything higher? " The host loudly asked with a trembling voice. This was really the highest price in history.

Chang's mother stood at the side and was about to die from happiness. As expected, the good things were not used in vain, and were finally worth returning the price.

The crowd was silent. Some of them could not help but whisper amongst themselves.

The host saw that no one was planning to bid anymore. Just as he was about to start the deal, he suddenly heard a crisp and pleasant female voice.

"Wait a moment."

The host looked towards the source of the voice and saw a beautiful girl. The clean air around him could not be hidden even in such an extravagant situation.

Next to the girl stood a lean man. The man stood at the front left of the girl, his hands behind his back, imperceptibly forming a protective barrier, as if ready to protect the girl from harm at any time. Behind the man, there were quite a few vigilant looking people. They silently watched the entire venue, as if they were ready to take action at any moment to deal with any possible danger.

It was obvious that these people focused on men as their center of protection. However, the man didn't seem to care about his safety. His gaze was fixated on the girl beside him, as if she would disappear in the blink of an eye.

The host could tell at a glance from the stage that this man was not simple.

"This is... What do you say, ma'am? " The host was just about to tease him, did he want to bid as well? However, when the host glanced at the man beside him, his hands couldn't help but tremble. He didn't dare to ask.

"It's Bai Xiao!" Just now, when he accidentally took a glance, he thought that he had seen wrongly, but he did not expect it to be actually Bai Xiao.

"Why is Bai Xiao here?" Although the girl was a little curious, when she heard that the host was about to make a deal, she quickly stopped.

The girl looked around at the group of people who were eyeing her fiercely. She had been placed in the same place before, so she clearly knew what kind of situation she would face once the deal was struck.

There was a high chance that he would be bitten to the point that not even dregs would remain. Thus, when the girl saw that it was actually Bai Xiao, she didn't care about it anymore and shouted for him to stop.

Now, when the host asked her, she was a little confused and didn't know what to say.

After a long time, the girl finally said with a blushing face, "I want to take her away."

The entire audience was silent, suddenly bursting into laughter.

Even the host couldn't help but laugh. "Lady, you can bring her along if you want to, but you have to make a bid."

When a girl heard the host's words, she obviously knew what she meant. However, since she didn't have money, and had just quarreled with a man, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

The man didn't say anything. The corners of his mouth curled up. What should he do if he just watched the girl like this?

Finally, the girl couldn't help but turn her head to look at the man with a pleading expression.

The man had been determined to ignore her, but with her large, watery eyes staring at him, he could only sigh helplessly.

The man reached out and touched the girl's long hair, then motioned to the person behind him.

Immediately, someone ran towards the backstage. The host was called to one side.

The audience watched in confusion, not knowing what had happened.

Not long after, the host returned to the center of the stage and said to the audience with an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry everyone, but there's also that person who paid 22 million just now. Our Xiaoxiao has already been sold for a high price."

When the audience heard the host's voice, they all sighed in disbelief.

"Then tell me what kind of high price is it?" The people below the stage asked in dissatisfaction.

"Exactly, what high price? Could it be that the price is higher than my offer?" The man who was about to get a deal was obviously unhappy, but now he had been intercepted.
