1988 Publicly Provoking Someone
"This meat Ganoderma is just a small auction item today. I don't think many people want it. We can just bid directly when the time comes."
Nan Tianyi was still relatively confident in obtaining the meat Ganoderma today.
Although the meat Ganoderma was precious, it was not a treasure that everyone in the Independent Continent would fight for.
He could afford it and was not afraid of not being able to get it.
There was a knock on the door at this moment.
"What's going on today?" Nan Tianyi frowned unhappily and let the people outside in.
It turned out that the person knocking on the door was an inconspicuous middle-aged man. The man was not tall and had a thin and long face. After he entered, he quickly glanced in Qiao Nian's direction before immediately retracting his gaze and walking straight to Nan Tianyi. He placed a pot of tea on the table and said respectfully, "Mr. Nan, this is Longjing tea. Our Sixth Elder especially prepared for you. Please take your time to taste it."
Someone from the Ji family?
Nan Tianyi narrowed his eyes and stared at him with a pair of tiger eyes as if he wanted to see through his thoughts.
He Lin did not dare to stay any longer. After putting down the tea, he said politely to everyone in the private room, "The item has been delivered. I won't disturb you anymore."
Then, he quickly left the private room.

Qiao Nian had just logged into the software when she saw a private message from 'Indigo Collar' asking her if she was in the Independent Continent.
She was resting her arm on the bar and leaning against the side. She lowered her eyes and thought about what the other party meant. Why did he suddenly send her a private message?
The people in the Black Mandala rarely contacted each other in private. If there was anything, they would talk in the group. It was even more so for Indigo Collar, who rarely appeared.
Qiao Nian wasn't too familiar with him. They just knew each other online.
The other party suddenly asked her such a sensitive question. She was also wondering if she should answer. Looking up, she saw He Lin enter, put down the tea, and leave.
She had seen He Lin many times and naturally knew that the Ji family was behind him!
The Ji family was here too?
Qiao Nian frowned in frustration. She exited the chat app and did not reply to the private message. She already knew in her heart that it would not be easy to get this meat Ganoderma today!
Nan Tianyi said, "My relationship with the Sixth Elder of the Ji family's Punishment Hall, Ji Hongyuan, is average. I saw him only a few times in the past. Why did he suddenly send me tea? What does the Ji family mean by this?"
Qiao Nian took her phone and walked over. Sitting down on the corner of the sofa expressionlessly, she changed into a comfortable posture, pulled down the brim of her baseball cap, and said casually with her sharp eyes, "They're here for me."
Nan Tianyi was at a loss.
The Ji family was targeting Qiao Nian?
What did they mean?
She wasn't from the Independent Continent.
Why did the Ji family and Ji Hongyuan come for her?
"Uncle Nan, give me your auction number." After Qiao Nian sat down, she did not say much and only looked at him.
Nan Tianyi handed the auction plate to her. "What are you doing with this? This is an auction—"
Before he could finish speaking, Nan Tianyi saw the girl emitting a surly and arrogant aura. She raised her eyebrows and met his eyes.
"I'll bid for the meat Ganoderma."
