Yang Feifei said, “You must take good care of it, and not lose it.”
“It can’t be lost, Boss Zhou trusts me to keep it safe!”
Chen Guang was somewhat proud, as he had made significant contributions to the Zhou Family, especially in the eyes of Zhou Canghai.
“How come I don’t know what was sent, let me have a look.”
Zhou Mei turned to Chen Guang and said.
Chen Guang smiled and said, “Miss Zhou wants to see it, of course there’s no problem, but there are too many eyes here, let’s find a secluded place.”
“Why so secretive, what is it exactly?”
Zhou Mei’s voice turned cold.
“It’s a painting.”
Chen Guang said proudly, “A Tang Bohu painting of a beautiful lady, worth fifty million, and that’s in US dollars!”
Sss~~
Those who heard it all took a sharp breath, good lord, Tang Bohu’s originals are hard to come by these days.
Being able to buy it for fifty million was already a bargain.
To those who cherished it, it was truly priceless.
The Zhou Family was indeed the Zhou Family, even a side branch could present such a generous gift.
“I heard Dong Zhi had such a painting back in the day; it’s not the same one, is it?”
At that moment, Lin Ying came over.
As a rising star in Blue Sea, Lin Ying naturally became one of the invited guests this time.
Xiao Chen was stunned.
He actually knew that Dong Zhi’s parents liked calligraphy and painting, and once got back a Tang Bohu painting of a beautiful lady when they went abroad.
Could such a coincidence really exist in this world?
“Heh heh, this painting indeed belongs to Dong Zhi’s family.
His parents sold it at a throw-away price to save Dong Zhi, it cost fifty million US dollars to buy, but when it was sold to Family Head Duan De, it only went for one million.”
Chen Guang shamelessly took it as a point of pride.
And coldness had already appeared in Xiao Chen’s eyes.
What a Duan De, taking advantage of someone’s misfortune.
“Don’t spout nonsense!”
Seeing the atmosphere turning sour, Yang Feifei quickly pulled Chen Guang away.
He really dared to say anything–this was hardly an honorable matter.
“Xiao Chen!”
Lin Ying could clearly feel the terrifying flame inside Xiao Chen’s body.
A good friend was wrongly imprisoned.
And the Duan Family wanted to capitalize on the situation.
A shameless bunch indeed, kicking someone while they’re down.
“I’m fine.”
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, “It’s just that whatever is given to the King of Reincarnation is as good as given to me, and this object will eventually return to Dong Zhi’s hands.
The old man spent almost all his fortune to buy it back then, it must be returned to him!”
“Xiao Chen, you’re boasting too much, the gift for the King of Reincarnation is yours?
Why don’t you say you are the King of Reincarnation?”
Zhou Mei said sarcastically.
“Exactly, you might be rich, but thinking of getting back what’s gone to the King of Reincarnation?
Don’t be ridiculous!”
Fang Han and Duan Long both spoke with utmost scorn.
Xiao Chen just smiled faintly, too lazy to argue.
These ignorant fools had no idea of his relationship with the King of Reincarnation.
Right, better not to reveal it.
To continue existing as someone saved by the King of Reincarnation.
Xiao Chen thought of a strategy, he would soon let these blind dogs see how the King of Reincarnation would give the painting to him in front of the Zhou Family.
“How about we make a bet?”
Without a word from Xiao Chen, Zhou Mu’er spoke up, she wasn’t as composed as Xiao Chen.
“A bet, what bet?”
Zhou Mei was stunned and asked.
“If the King of Reincarnation gives Tang Bohu’s painting to my brother later, you three must kneel and slap your own faces in front of everyone, admitting your nonsense.
Otherwise, if it doesn’t happen, my brother and I will kneel and slap ourselves.
Do you dare?”
Zhou Mu’er said indignantly.
Lin Ying and Ye Mengzhu were both anxious.
“Impulsive little girl, don’t drag your brother into this.”
But before they could dissuade her,
Zhou Mei had already said with a smile, “Okay, young lady, I accept.”
“We agree as well!”
Fang Han and Duan Long also nodded, “So many people around here have heard it; don’t you regret it later!”
“Although this is my sister’s impulsive act, I won’t deny it either.
We’ll see when the time comes.”
Xiao Chen sneered.
“Fine, let’s go!”
Zhou Mei was waiting for a good show, so she didn’t plan to waste more time with Xiao Chen right now.
After Zhou Mei left, Xiao Chen was planning to eat peacefully.
Suddenly someone else came over.
It was Zhou Canghai, Zhou Wu, and others.
“Are you Xiao Chen?”
Zhou Canghai looked at Xiao Chen coldly as he asked.
Xiao Chen remained seated there, while Lin Ying stood by, somewhat trembling with fear.
Zhou Canghai, after all, was from an aristocratic clan.
Lin Ying, like her, certainly couldn’t compare.
“Are you Zhou Canghai?”
Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
“Hmph, don’t be too arrogant, kid.
I’m happy you came to the ceremony today because once you’re here, don’t expect to leave alive!”
Zhou Canghai had the audacity to say this in front of everyone, showing just how domineering he was.
He wasn’t afraid at all.
Xiao Chen said with a smile, “Even if the Family Head of your main branch were here, I wouldn’t take them seriously, let alone you.
The outcome of Zhou Wen was just a warning to you not to go too far.
If you provoke me, your branch might just disappear!””
“A wolf from the mountain lineage, arrogant when in power!
You indeed have some clout in the Southern Region, but when you come to the north, you’d better kneel down before me.”
Zhou Canghai said coldly.
“Heh, I, for one, have never understood what keeping a low profile means, nor do I know what kneeling means; I prefer standing.
It’s the sight of Zhou Wen kneeling and begging for mercy before me that I still recall vividly!”
Xiao Chen continued to provoke.
Zhou Canghai’s blood pressure rose with anger.
“My my, don’t die of anger now, that would be such a big responsibility for me.”
Xiao Chen teased.
Zhou Wu, enraged, was about to take action, “Dad, this kid is too audacious.
I’ll cripple him now, and let’s see if he dares to continue acting wildly!”
“Wait!”
Zhou Canghai hurriedly intervened, “We can’t act now, several high-level officials from Blue Sea are here, and the King of Reincarnation might appear at any moment.
If something goes wrong, we can’t bear it, so let this kid be arrogant for a while.
You send someone to watch all the exits.
We can’t let this kid slip away.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t leave.
I’d like to see how the grand Zhou family will deal with me.”
Xiao Chen said with a smile, “If there’s nothing else, you’d better go rest.
This is your ceremony, after all.
If you collapse here, wouldn’t it become a funeral?”
“Rascal, don’t you say another word!”
Zhou Wu left, carrying Zhou Canghai away.
The old man had been thoroughly incensed by Xiao Chen.
“Mengzhu, stop mingling with this kind of person.
Leave him quickly,”
As he was leaving, Zhou Wu glanced at Ye Mengzhu and specifically reminded her.
“Oh right, those doctors from America are quite impressive, aren’t they?
Get them to come see the old man,”
Xiao Chen called out loudly.
American doctors!
“Was it you?”
Zhou Wu suddenly stopped, looking at Xiao Chen in shock.
“Who knows?
I just said it off the cuff.”
Xiao Chen said mysteriously.
