A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 4] Chapter 96
[Vol. 4] Chapter 96: Hehe~
Kurt angrily spat blood as he left the scene, but it did not delay the heated atmosphere of the auction!
Downstairs, various guards were eager to bid, and the prices of the second magical plant remained steadily rising.
After the successful auction of the second magical plant at a price of 50 million gold coins, the third and fourth magical plants were also successfully auctioned at prices of 45 million and 43 million, respectively.
This left Ifia, who was watching the auction on the second floor, somewhat puzzled. Initially, she thought that after revealing ten magical plants, the auction prices would decrease.
After all, the value of things diminishes when there’s an abundance. Even though Camus’s magical plants were rare, Ifia had this thought in her mind and decided to ask directly. It’s too uncomfortable to keep questions to oneself!
Moreover, Amelia, the organizer of the auction, was right in front of her and surely knew the answer! In fact, it was true.
In response to Ifia’s question, Amelia smiled and replied, “Although there are ten magical plants for auction, the guards below represent various families. Only ten magical plants are not enough to distribute! Moreover, I’ve arranged personnel to control the prices, preventing them from bidding too low.”
After saying this, Amelia seemed to recall Ifia’s strong dislike for Kurt and continued, “Kurt spitting blood is because his tolerance is too low. Initially, I hesitated whether to control the auction price of the second magical plant, such as lowering the bidding price, which would definitely infuriate him when compared to the first one.”
“But after thinking about how I couldn’t afford to lose money, I gave up the plan.”
“As a result, before the auction of the second magical plant was even completed, just after announcing the auction of the ten magical plants together, Kurt was greatly struck and fainted.”
If it were Amelia’s usual personality, she wouldn’t think too much. However, with Ifia around, she had to consider things carefully. After all, a decrease in the money obtained from auctioning magical plants would leave Ifia feeling down.
“Hehe, Kurt fainting is well-deserved, he’s just too annoying!” Ifia liked Amelia’s cleverness. Even before she asked, Amelia had already given the answer she wanted to hear.
In the midst of Ifia’s joy, the auction proceeded smoothly without the antics of the lively clown, Kurt. All ten magical plants were undoubtedly successfully auctioned.
The enormous amount of money from the auction, with its string of zeros, made Ifia feel a bit dizzy just listening to it. It was truly a windfall! Who would have thought that these peculiar magical plants would be worth so much money?
However, thinking about the misfortune vines encountered in the underground ice cave, Ifia realized that without Amelia, she would probably have long been dead. The ability to obtain and auction magical plants was indeed a testament to Amelia’s tremendous skills.
In the face of such a huge profit from the auction, Ifia felt no envy or jealousy, only admiration.
Truly, her Amelia is amazing!
Not only is she beautiful and intelligent, but she can also handle herself well, and the crucial part is that she can make a lot of money!
Who wouldn’t like someone like Amelia?
With these thoughts, Ifia felt a sudden rush of heat in her body, like being in a sauna. She blushed, felt dizzy, and her mind seemed to spin. She could only gaze at Amelia with infatuation, like a hungry wolf eyeing a delicious sheep.
Driven by instinctive hunger, she wanted to show her claws and capture her prey. However, due to previous consecutive failures, even though Ifia’s head was spinning, she didn’t dare to pounce directly.
In the end, she could only follow behind Amelia, leaving the auction venue in a daze. Fortunately, the cold wind from Camus cleared Ifia’s mind a bit. Though her steps were obedient, her mind was still filled with thoughts that made her shiver.
Now that the auction was a great success, they should celebrate. It would be nice to have a drink, and perhaps, after getting Amelia a bit tipsy, Ifia could do whatever she pleased!
She was obviously not realizing the extent of her alcohol tolerance, was already formulating bold plans in her mind. The idea of things getting a bit wild after a few drinks didn’t sound bad at all.
(๑>•̀๑)
With these thoughts, when Amelia brought Ifia back to their residence and before Ifia could suggest celebrating, the captain of the guards, Fern, who had left the auction earlier, unexpectedly arrived.
Fern, leading a group of guards, entered the dining room. Each guard placed a covered plate emitting steam on the table, and there was no sound during the process. They were like ghosts—lightly coming and going, leaving behind a table full of delicious food.
Unfortunately, the expected drinks that Ifia had anticipated were not included. However, this didn’t deter Ifia.
“Amelia, I’ll go get something,” she said.
Having stayed in the house for a few days, Ifia was familiar with the layout. Excitedly climbing the stairs, she quickly found a room with a massive liquor cabinet.
A variety of drinks covered an entire wall.
Standing in front of the liquor cabinet, Ifia’s cute face displayed a satisfied expression. Afterward, with great seriousness, she began selecting a few bottles of alcohol to be her ‘lucky drinks.’
At the same time, murmuring to herself, Ifia said, “Little darlings, it’s all up to you this time. Please, bless the success of my plan!”
Since coming to this world, Ifia’s commoner background meant she had limited exposure to alcohol. Even when she had money, she didn’t actively seek out fine wines. Instead, she had collected quite a few cooking wines and similar items suitable for culinary use.
The only exception was getting drunk on the ship while on the way to the Taric Kingdom. It happened during a game of Truth or Dare, and Ifia, not particularly attentive to the taste of alcohol, only remembered that it wasn’t spicy but still managed to sting.
So, this time, Ifia could only pick randomly. She chose bottles based on their attractive shapes. During the selection process, Ifia’s love for aesthetics burst forth, and she quickly picked out three bottles.
As she came out of the room, satisfied and eager, ready to hurry downstairs, Ifia suddenly remembered something, causing her to slow down.
With three bottles in her arms, Ifia descended the stairs, stealthily peering towards the dining room. There, she saw Amelia, elegantly sitting at the table, having changed into a different outfit.
Unfazed by the cold, the black dress on her body was very thin, outlining a well-proportioned figure with ample bust and slender waist. Silver long hair cascaded behind her, contrasting with her rosy lips, tempting one to leave marks on them.
The most beautiful feature was her pair of purple eyes, resembling the most exquisite amethyst.
Hehe~
⸜(。˃ ᎑ ˂)⸝♡
Amelia was flawless from head to toe, not a single imperfection, and even her hair seemed to shimmer!
This made Ifia subconsciously want to wipe the corner of her mouth.
However, remembering the bottles of wine she was holding, she could only stick out her tongue to lick her lips, then confidently stride downstairs!
This time, she was determined to get Amelia drunk!
