The Unknown Beauty 170 Another Spoiled Brat 1

But two of his sons, Quan Xue and Quan Wei-Kang, felt the strange energy in the air. They couldn't tell what it was and the energy disappears a few minutes after. They looked at each other with worry.

'Did the man already attack? But the imperial guards seems calm…' thought Quan Xue.

'Damn… are we too late?' thought Quan Wei-Kang. 'Shit… I still can't get free from this bastard?'

He looked at his father, glaring at him with hatred. Not only that, even Quan Xue was glaring at his father.

'Sh!t. Is Lin Yu Yan really going to working for my father? Or is she playing around? I'm pretty sure she already knows that Father is the one buying the drugs from that psychopath. But her facial expressions are so hard to read,' thought Quan Wei-Kang.

Then the strange energy was gone.

'What… it disappeared?' they both thought.

Quan Xue looked at his younger brother, Quan Jian Min, jumping up and down from being able to get the level zero sword. Quan Fe He and Quan Jiang was happy to each get a beauty pill and can't wait to use them once the auction was over.

"Wei-Kang, where is Huan Lan?" said Quan Xue.

He looked to see that Quan Huan Lan is missing.

"I think sister said something about using the bathroom," said Quan Wei-Kang, hopping nothing bad happened.

"Sold to Minister Quan for 7 million pieces of gold!" said the host.

"Yes!" said Minister Quan. Though he may not have gotten the longevity pill, he at least got his hands on a super rare spiritual medical herb.

Then rushing footsteps could be heard coming towards their room.

"Father!" said Quan Huan Lan.

"Where have you been, Huan Lan?" asked Quan Xue but was ignored and she walks up to her father.

"That Lin Yu Yan… She's not up there!?" said Quan Huan Lan.

"Huh? What do you mean?" said Minister Quan.

"Someone else is substituting her! The real Lin Yu Yan is not here!!" said Quan Huan Lan. 'I might be able to destroy her!'

Quan Huan Lan had a concern face but she was snickering in her mind.

"So? She can do whatever she wants as long as she is on our side?" said Minister Quan. "What is wrong with you? We are trying to be allies, not enemies with her."

"She could be planning something against us, Father!" said Quan Huan Lan. 'What's going on?'

"Father… She may be right," said Quan Jian Min. "Because all the powerful people of the empire are here,this could have been a perfect chance to steal valuables things from us. Or anything valuable in the kingdom."

"Hmm… But if we were to call her out… she won't side with us," said Minister Quan. "I don't want to take that risk."

"She agreed way to fast. It could be a trap," said Quan Jian Min.

'Shut Up, Jian Min!' thought Quan Xue. 'It's our only chance to be free!'

"Hmm… whatever the case it could be, I can easily defeat her either way," said Minister Quan.

"But she is not the issue. The man that's always with her is," said Quan Jian Min, thinking real deep into the situation.

"Why aren't you two talking?" asked Minister Quan to his other two sons. Quan Xue and Quan Wei-Kang said nothing as the other siblings try to figure out what was going on.

Quan Xue had to think of something quickly, "It's impossible she would be against us because even the 3rd prince of Wang has sided with us. Even I know not to use a royal for any plan against another because it would create war against each other."

"It's true…" said Minister Quan.

"Yeah. The Wang empire was recently recovering from their last attack. I'm sure he wouldn't recklessly do that to his people," said Quan Wei-Kang.

"But… We don't know that!" said Quan Huan Lan. She looked at her brothers confused at the strange backfire she is receiving.

"No, I'm not risking it. I can see the evilness in the Prince's eyes, just like how his father looked when they refused to help the empire in the past. No doubt he is with us," said Minister Quan.

"But-" said Quan Huan Lan.

"No buts. Don't check. She probably was also planning to help us, Huan Lan," said Minister Quan.

"No! I'm going to check! I will prove you wrong!" said Quan Huan Lan. 'Why is it not going my way?'

She runs out of the room and heads down to the first floor seeing the mask girl with her crew, getting off the elevator.

"You! You're not Lady Lin's daughter!" said Quan Huan Lan. She yelled loudly, making the audience look in her direction.

The masked girl didn't faze. The girl guard stood before Quan Huan Lan to block her from doing anything but the masked girl put her hand up, gesturing her that it's fine.

The crowd were confused at what was happening. They watched the crazy Quan girl make a big deal of something as always. A lot of people find enjoyment wherever the ladies of Quan go anywhere because they always stir up trouble.

"You are not the lady at that restaurant!" Quan Huan Lan said, again, trying to get the masked girl to be scared.

"Is she talking about the mysterious beauty at XX restaurant?" said a man.

"Probably. She's the only candidate who could be Lady Lin's daughter," said the other man.

They crowd heard the two men's conversation and whispered and nodded in agreement.

Quan Yi Ying was on his way back from the auction when he was attacked. He was soon surrounded by many men in black.

"It's this kid right?" said a man.

"I'm sure this is the kid Minister Quan wanted for that psychopath," said another.

"Hey kid, come with us if you don't want to get hurt," said the first man.

'Damn it... I'm still not fully healed yet!' thought Quan Yi Ying. He is able to move fast but because of his past damages, he won't be able to get of this mess.

"Yi Ying!" said a voice. The person took down 5 people in the back already and stood in front of Yi Ying.

"Wei Ru?! How did you find me?" said Quan Yi Ying.

"Well, you disappeared! Thank god I found you on time," said Wei Ru. "After all, Sister Yu Yan told me to protect you."

Wei Ru's mission was to protect and take Quan Yi Ying back to the houses Lin Yu Yan has bought for the people to keep him safe. It was in the letter written in English for Quan Su Wen, which Lin Yu Yan entrusted Soo Tien-Kai to deliver.

Quan Yi Ying felt the strange presence in the air and wanted to warn Quan Su Wen so he left secretly once Wei Ru was busy from paying attention to him. He got his sword ready and knocked all the guys fast and soon the men in black were all knocked down.

"Come on. Sister Yu Yan should be getting back now," said Wei Ru.
