BTTH: Bearing Children to get Reward, I'll Create the Strongest Family

Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Old Friends Meet At Last



Upon stepping into the hall, Chenfeng took a brief glance around the grand and spacious interior, its opulence reflecting the wealth of the establishment.

Without hesitation, he made his way toward a side room. The door bore three golden characters gleaming in the light: "Treasure Appraisal Room." Without pausing, he pushed the door open and stepped inside.

"The treasure appraiser in Wu Tan City should be that old guy Gu Ni."

Thinking of meeting an old acquaintance so far from home, Chenfeng unconsciously smiled.

As Chenfeng pushed the door open, he was greeted by the sight of a relatively empty room. The only occupant was a middle-aged man seated beside a small desk, looking visibly bored.

The sound of the door drew his attention, and as he looked up, his gaze fell on Chenfeng, whose luxurious robes immediately caught his eye. Quickly adopting a professional demeanor, the man offered a courteous smile and said, "Young Master, do you have a treasure you need appraised?"

"Where's Gu Ni? Isn't he here? Ask him to come and see me." Chenfeng frowned when he saw that it wasn't Gu Ni inside. .

Hearing Chenfeng call Master Gu Ni by his name, the middle-aged man's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the "noble master" temperament on Chenfeng, he asked cautiously: "Young Master, who are you?"

Chenfeng didn't waste any words and directly took out a blue token with a lotus engraved on it from his storage ring and handed it over.

The middle-aged man took a look at the token, and his expression suddenly changed. He quickly returned the token to Chenfeng, and his expression became much more respectful: "Young Master, wait a moment, I will go and notify Supervisor Gu Ni immediately."

With that, he left the treasure appraisal room in a hurry.

The blue lotus token that Chenfeng took out was only allocated to the direct descendants of the Miteer family. This middle-aged man was just a branch manager.

When he learned of Chenfeng's identity, he was naturally frightened and did not dare to be disrespectful at all.

After staying in the room for a while, the middle-aged man returned again, but this time, he also brought an old man in green with some white hair.

"Young Master, this is Supervisor Gu Ni from our Wu Tan Auction house." The middle-aged man introduced.

Chenfeng's eyes swept across the room and landed on the familiar emblem adorning the chest of the old man in green. It was a finely painted medicine furnace, its surface adorned with two silver ripples that shimmered with an air of refinement and nobility, signaling that this old man was a second-tier alchemist.

The old man's face looked red. Although the green clothes on his body looked ordinary, there was a faint flow of elegance. There was a touch of arrogance that was difficult to conceal on his ordinary old face, however this is a must-have for every alchemist, apparently.

"Who are you?"

Gu Ni studied the handsome young man standing before him, his eyes narrowing slightly as he scrutinized the unfamiliar face. A feeling of familiarity lingered in his mind, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't place where he had seen him before. The sensation was elusive, like a memory just out of reach.

"Supervisor Gu Ni, long time no see, even I almost didn't recognize you."

Chenfeng looked at Gu Ni who appeared and spoke with a smile.

Although Gu Ni is only a second-tier alchemist, in this world, every alchemist is extremely precious, so he also has a good status in the Miteer family.

Because Gu Ni was recruited into the family by the second elder of the Miteer family, Chenfeng had been familiar with Gu Ni since he was a child.

"You are... Young Master Chenfeng!"

Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, a flash of understanding flashed in Gu Ni's mind, and he immediately blurted out.

"Supervisor Gu Ni, I haven't seen you for a few years. How are you?" Chenfeng nodded and acknowledged his identity.

"Young Master Chenfeng, it's really you. Why did you come to Wu Tan City, such a far place from the Imperial Capital?"

Seeing Chenfeng nodding, Gu Ni's surprise grew. The fact that Chenfeng had appeared in Wu Tan City was something he hadn't expected at all.

Gu Ni studied him intently. It had been several years since their last meeting, and Chenfeng's appearance had changed significantly. The once youthful face now carried a more mature, masculine aura, making it difficult for Gu Ni to recognize him at first glance.

"Oh, I understand, you are here to see Miss Ya Fei, aren't you?"

Soon, Gu Ni thought of something, and an ambiguous smile appeared on his face.

He has known Chenfeng since childhood, and has worked with Ya Fei for many years, so he naturally understands the close relationship between the two.

Chenfeng traveled all the way from the Imperial Capital to Wu Tang City, and he obviously couldn't just come to see this old man.

'This old man is still such a pervert!'

Seeing the "cheesy smile" on Gu Ni's face, Chenfeng cursed in his heart.

He was well aware of the old man's true nature. Despite his outwardly respectable appearance, the old man was shameless and creep at heart.

When Chenfeng was ten years old, this old guy encouraged him to go to the brothel together.

If Chenfeng hadn't remained firm in his resolve and refused with conviction, he would have succumbed to the temptation, and by now, his body would have been ruined beyond repair.

Thinking about it now, Chenfeng felt even more lucky.

'If I hadn't rejected this old guy back then, I would have been obsessed with sex all day long. And then if I the system of Bearing Children to get Rewards didn't activate, I wouldn't have no strengt, no status and no future...'

"Think what you want. Where is Sister Yafei? Why don't you take me to see her?"

Chenfeng rolled his eyes, fully aware of the old man's lecherous nature. Deciding there was no need to maintain formalities, his tone turned noticeably less polite.

"Miss Ya Fei should be in the conference room at the moment. Come with me, I will take you to her." Gu Ni didn't care about Chenfeng's change of attitude.

After leaving the door of the treasure appraisal room, he suddenly leaned into Chenfeng's ear and said with a wretched smile: "Young Master Chenfeng, I have some blue "fun" pills here, how about I give you some?"

Chenfeng paused mid-step, casting a disdainful glance at the old man. With a tone dripping in scorn, he said, "Do you think I'm like you? This young master has will never need pills like that."

After activating the Dragon-Elephant Body, Chenfeng can be said to not know what the word "tired" mean. When he was with Nalan Yanran before, she was the first one to beg for mercy every time.

"Uh..."

Being ridiculed by Chenfeng like this, Gu Ni froze for a moment, his old face flushing red with embarrassment. Looking at Chenfeng's confident and composed demeanor, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

It's good to be young!

Thinking about how he could barely last a minute even with the aid of certain "enhancements," the old man's face twisted in regret. He sighed inwardly, cursing his younger self for indulging recklessly in carnal pleasures. 'If only I had been more disciplined,' he lamented silently, 'I wouldn't be paying the price now.'

"By the way, get ready and clear your schedule, you are coming with me to Xiao family's resistance tomorrow." On the way, Chenfeng suddenly said to Gu Ni.

"Going to Xiao family's resistance? To do what?" Hearing this, Gu Ni was a little confused.

Chenfeng was about to answer when suddenly his gaze shifted to the corner of the hall, where the employees of the Miteer Auction House typically entered and exited. The area had been quiet and orderly moments before, but now it was buzzing with activity.

A faint murmur rippled through the crowd, and several staff members seemed to straighten their postures, their demeanor becoming more enthusiastic.

Chenfeng squinted slightly, his keen eyes catching a glimpse of a red, graceful figure, moving through the commotion.

Looking down, Chenfeng suddenly saw a pair of red boots. The sharp click of the heels against the bluestone floor echoing with a rhythm that seemed to demand attention.

Chenfeng's gaze moved slightly upwards and lingered for a moment, unable to ignore the mesmerizing sight before him. Her legs were long, slender, and flawlessly smooth, their ivory tone seeming to glow under the ambient light of the hall. Every step she took seemed to emphasize their elegance, the hem of her crimson dress swaying just enough to tease the imagination.

"These legs..." Chenfeng thought, his admiration growing with each passing second, "white as snow and as perfect as jade. Truly a work of art."
