Chapter 21

Once the crowd realized what had happened, the entire scene erupted into chaos. People scrambled to retreat, creating a wide berth around Ning Chen. No one had expected that this young man, who looked so sunny and handsome, would suddenly commit murder—and against the general manager of the Chucheng Auction House, no less. Everyone knew that man was one of the most capable lieutenants of Zhou Shihao, the Underground Emperor of Chuzhou. They could already imagine how miserable Ning Chen’s fate would be. "Looks like I won't even need to hire anyone to deal with you," Zhao Ruolin whispered, hiding in the crowd. She watched Ning Chen with gritted teeth, feeling a sense of twisted satisfaction. She was certain that today, Ning Chen would not leave this place alive.
