Sponsored chapter thanks to Jinhuang C 💘💘 (my begging worked, chapter 1/2 for TFDC)

Then he looked at Lou Qingwu and placed the black jade pendant from his waist to her palm, “I have something to deal with. You can go to the auction first and I’ll find you later.”
Lou Qingwu knew that he had to deal with something so she received his jade pendant, “You can deal with your business.”
Thinking that she shouldn’t run into any troubles here, Feng Yege then left.
After he left, Lou Qingwu followed the path that Feng Yege told her to go and not too long later, saw the entrance to the auction.
It was a completely different style to the rest of the underground black market.
The auction’s entrance was made from pure white marble with only some golden veins intertwining throughout.
It looked solemn and dignified, with an impressive air to it.
As it was the first time she’d come, Lou Qingwu was a bit entranced by it, until behind her, there was an arrogant and disdainful sound behind her.
She clicked her tongue, “How could the auction left this type of person come in?”
Lou Qingwu returned to her senses and turned around to face a delicately carved face paired with a floor length pink gown.
It made the girl seem as beautiful as peach blossoms, apart from those mocking eyes that looked in Lou Qingwu’s direction which her beauty couldn’t hide.
Lou Qingwu just looked at her once to make sure she was looking at her, before furrowing her brows.
She then looked at herself and realised she was still wearing her maid servant’s clothes and understood.
At the same time, her eyes also coldened.
The girl saw how Lou Qingwu even dared to look her in the eye and became even more unhappy.
Her fingers immediately raised up and pointed to one of the servers who stood in all four directions, waiting patiently, “You and you, drag her out for this miss!”
Seeing this type of person really dirtied her eyes.
Lou Qingwu heard this and instead of getting angry, laughed.
She didn’t say anything and continued to lean on the white jade wall, coldly laughing as she took in this scene.
The two people who were pointed at, looked at each other with difficult expressions.
This miss came late so she didn’t see clearly, but they saw clearly.
She came here with a young gentleman and passed her a black jade pendant, so how could they dare to offend her?
One of the servers smiled politely and spoke to her, “This miss, those who come are guests. Us servants, can’t ask them to leave.”
In the special case that it was someone they really couldn’t offend, then they wouldn’t even have a life left.
Originally, those with smart minds, should’ve picked up the second layer of meaning behind his words.
But this girl was depending on her high status and breeding so she wouldn’t let it go.
She was the duke’s grand esteemed daughter, when did she ever have to walk in with a servant to any place?
If this spread out, how could she have any face to stay in the noble girls’ circle?
“No way! You definitely have to kick her out!”
“This ….”
“What? Even this miss can’t order you around? Do you know who I am?”
At this time, one of the servers lowered his eyes to hide his impatience.
Those who could enter and leave here were either high ranked officials or nobles, how could he know who she was?
But he still had to patiently ask, “Who is this miss?”
“Listen up!” The girl became high and mighty, “This miss is Duke Pingyang’s eldest miss!”
On the side, Lou Qingwu heard this and her eyes narrowed.
So this was that infamously arrogant and stubborn Nie Zhen’er.
She depended on her duke father and didn’t take anyone seriously.
The fact that her personality hadn’t clashed with anyone was truly, a miracle.
Too lazy to deal with this annoyance, Lou Qingwu straightened up and walked inside.
If she delayed any longer, she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to solve it in an hour.
Seeing Lou Qingwu’s actions, the server let out a relieved breath.
Finally, they bumped into someone who was clever.
If they could avoid provoking anyone, they’d avoid doing so, or otherwise, if someone from above punished them, they really couldn’t take the consequences.
But when they looked at Nie Zhen’er, they looked at her with disdain.
She was just a duke’s daughter, did she really have to be that proud?
Anyone who came inside here wouldn’t have a rank that much lower than hers!
In her residence, Nie Zhen’er was used to being raised up high and doted on, so who knew that even after revealing her status, these people still acted as if they didn’t know.
Especially that girl wearing a maid servant’s clothes, she was even worse, to think that she’d actually just walk away like that?
“Stand still for this miss!”
Lou Qingwu was too lazy to deal with her and continued to walk forward.
Nie Zhen’er then became extremely angry as she quickened her steps, even yanking up her long gown to lift her leg up to stomp towards Lou Qingwu.
