The 'Zhao Manyan' Who Came Free with a Phone Top-Up

After everyone arrived, Little Hoof had already put aside the previous unpleasantness. She dragged Tang Miao along, eager to experience it all!

Tang Miao naturally did not refuse, after all, this was his first time experiencing being "rented" like a young woman on her wedding day.

The driver was quite outgoing; along the way, he told Tang Miao and the others about the best places to eat and visit in Venice Water City...

"If you're going to the St. Mark's Auction Hall, it's not far across this waterway. The World Academy Competition about to begin, and people are flocking to this small town. I think my business will be even better," the driver said with a smile after we arrived.

After saying that, he even handed Tang Miao a business card.

Tang Miao did not refuse and accepted it.

Once ashore, St. Mark's Square comes into view, and the magnificent St. Mark's World Auction House is also visible, with two winged lions guarding the entrance to the cathedral, looking solemn and majestic!

"This place is so beautiful, shall we settle down here from now on?" Jiang Shaoxu said, pulling Tang Miao along, her fox-like eyes sparkling.

"Smack!"

What she received in response was a slap that hurt terribly! Even though it was a flick on her buttocks, it was still flesh of her own flesh; the pain was unimaginable...

Looking at Jiang Shaoxu, whose eyes were filled with tears, Tang Miao said seriously, "I usually slap a woman like you who idolizes foreign things! I'll let it slide this time, but if it happens again, I won't be so polite."

Seeing Tang Miao's expression, Jiang Shaoxu felt wronged but dared not refute anything.

After all, this was the first time she had ever seen this scoundrel of a man like this.

"Zhao Manyan?!"

Just as Tang Miao was disciplining the Little Fox, a handsome man wearing beach shorts and sunglasses walked towards Zhao Manyan from the door.

"Brother, you're so busy, yet you still made a special trip to pick me up..." Zhao Manyan said excitedly, looking at the man in sunglasses.

However, before Zhao Manyan could finish speaking, the man in sunglasses raised an eyebrow and said, "What are you doing here, kid??"

Seeing Zhao Manyan's heartless brother arrive, Tang Miao was too lazy to lecture Jiang Fox anymore. Jiang Shaoxu, on the other hand, carefully reached out and took Tang Miao's arm, Ruan Ruan pressing herself against him.

Zhao Manyan was quite touched, but after hearing what his older brother said, he was speechless.

"Didn't I tell you I was coming here?" Zhao Manyan said, dissatisfied.

"Oh, I didn't really care. Speaking of which, weren't you sent by your father to another country for training? What are you doing here? Let me tell you, it's no use hiding here from me if you've done something shameful. I'm busy, I don't have time to care about you. You're worth hundreds of millions every minute, you know?" The man in sunglasses had an attitude of "I'm not going to take care of you now that you've caused trouble."

"You..."

Zhao Manyan was a little angry, and then he started arguing with his older brother.

Tang Miao thought of someone, and seeing that Ai Jiangtu and the others were about to go to other places, he said to the little hoof beside him, "Why don't you go with them? Zhao Manyan go and inquire about the Soul Seed."

Jiang Shaoxu looked at Tang Miao with some dissatisfaction, but before she could speak, Tang Miao said again, "Be good!"

In the past, it would have taken her a while to get rid of Jiang Fox, but because of what had just happened, she had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

Before leaving, however, he didn't forget to tell Tang Miao not to mess around!

Tang Miao simply nodded and didn't waste any more words with her.

By this time, Zhao Manyan had finished arguing with his older brother Zhao Yougan and pulled him and Mo Fan over to introduce them, "This is my brother, Tang Miao. And this is Mo Fan. One of them needs Lightning Element Soul Seed, or the other a Fire Element Soul Seed. The other needs Wind Element Soul Seed. Do you have any resources?"

Although Mo Fan missed out on many things, there are countless bounties in the world. In addition, he had killed the Dark Sword Master and now possessed a considerable fortune.

Therefore, he also broke away from Zhao Manyan and wanted to buy a Soul Seed!

"Alright, alright, we'll talk about your business later."

Zhao Yougan waved his hand dismissively, then said, "You go in first, we'll talk later. I have another important guest to attend to."

Although Zhao Manyan was very unhappy, he seemed to have gotten used to it. He had no choice but to bring Tang Miao and Mo Fan into the Saint Mark World Auction Hall.

Those who hold shares in the St. Mark's World Auction Hall are truly world-class billionaires. One of the most important reasons why the Zhao Clan family is considered the wealthiest family in Huaxia is that they hold a significant share in the St. Mark's World Auction Hall. In fact, they have a presence in auctions all over the world.

"Your brother is really interesting," Mo Fan said after they went inside.

Tang Miao nodded in agreement.

Zhao Manyan said helplessly, "It's been like this since I was a child. I'm invisible to him. To be honest, I'm a little surprised that he could recognize me from so far away."

Speaking of this, he was still somewhat happy. Obviously, it wasn't easy to be taken seriously... He continued, "You know, this guy only has money in his eyes. If I say even half a word to him, he'll feel like I'm interfering with his money-making. This guy, who doesn't care about women, good food, magic, or sentimentality, has only one pleasure and pursuit in life: making money. He's exactly the same as my old man in that respect."

What Zhao Manyan said really sounded tragic, and Tang Miao didn't say anything.

Mo Fan then quipped, "So, at home, it's like you were adopted?"

Zhao Manyan's mouth twitched, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he said self-deprecatingly, "I guess so. If I hadn't been quite good at the path of magic, able to somewhat make up for the fact that our Zhao Family doesn't produce many powerful magicians, I guess no one would have bothered to ask about me if I had disappeared."

Listening to his self-deprecating humor, Tang Miao sensed a hint of boasting. She retorted disdainfully, "You think you're exceptionally good at magic?"

To be honest, if this guy wasn't armed to the teeth with magical artifacts and hadn't been so well-funded, he'd be nothing but a weakling.

Mo Fan retorted with equal disdain, "How come it sounds so tragic coming from you? Do you know how many people envy someone like you who's rich like an idiot and has absolutely no family constraints? If I were born in a place like this, why would I risk my life to kill demons? You have no idea how dangerous those bounties were a while back!"

"That's true."

Zhao Manyan nodded, then distanced himself from the two and said, "However, ever since I met you two, I've been risking my life countless times..."
