Su Qi was a little surprised. This bracelet was bought at a street stall. How did Zhou Chen know about it? Could it be that Zhou Chen saw it when he bought it?
"No nonsense!" Mr. Sheng suddenly coughed and spoke with a serious expression.
With trembling hands, he carefully took the bracelet, put on his reading glasses and carefully observed it for a while, then said with a smile, "I have never seen a bracelet with such exquisite carving techniques in this life. It's really my fault." pleasure."
"What? Grandpa Sheng, are you reading that right? Isn't this bracelet a fake from a street stall?" Zhou Chen was dumbfounded and still couldn't believe it.
Mr. Sheng raised his eyes to look at him and snorted coldly, "I am old, not blind. This bracelet is definitely made by a famous sculptor, and the materials used are unparalleled in the world."
As soon as the words "unparalleled in the world" came out, everyone was frightened.
What kind of rare treasures has Sheng Minghai not seen? How precious is something that he can use the words "unparalleled in the world" to describe it?
"Su Qi, this bracelet must be valuable, right? You are interested." He looked at Su Qi and nodded with satisfaction.
The expressions of everyone present looking at Su Qi changed instantly. If Su Qi could gain the old man's favor, she would have to pass a critical point if she wanted to enter the Sheng family and take charge.
Su Qi looked at the deer bone bracelet and was a little confused. Could it be that that crazy woman was not the charlatan he thought she was?
Or... Mr. Sheng knew that Sheng Ruyan cared about him, and deliberately smoothed things over for him on this occasion to avoid embarrassment for him?
But before he had time to think deeply, Zhou Chen's harsh taunting voice sounded again.
"I heard that Su Qi bought an abandoned factory at a high price a month ago. I thought he was a fool without vision. I didn't expect that he could be familiar with such cultural toys as deer bone bracelets. It's really surprising."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the guests in the room began to whisper.
"So he was the one who bought that factory? As I said before, the person who can do such a stupid thing will definitely not be the young master of our four major families."
"It's not like children from small families can't do it, but a factory like that can actually buy it."
"The factory just gave it to me for free, and I don't even want it."
"Zhou Chen, it's not your turn to tell Su Qi what to buy." Sheng Ruyan's face was as dark as water, and she defended Su Qi without hesitation.
"Ruyan, I'm telling the truth. Everyone knows the value of that factory." Zhou Chen didn't want to lose out in front of Sheng Ruyan, and directly pointed the finger at Su Qi, "If you are a man, don't hide. Behind Ruyan, let a woman support you."
"I had my own reasons for buying that factory, but you are short-sighted and can't see clearly." Su Qiyun said calmly.
Zhou Chen was furious, and just when he was about to say more, Mr. Sheng suddenly coughed.
"Okay, okay, today is my birthday party. If someone deliberately doesn't want my old man to have a peaceful birthday party, then from now on, he won't be able to come in through the Sheng family's door again."
After saying that, the old man glanced at Sheng Ruyan and said, "Ruyan, take Su Qi to meet friends of the Sheng family."
After a few words, Zhou Chen reluctantly shut up.
Su Qi knew that the old man spoke for him because of the bracelet and Sheng Ruyan. She immediately looked at the old man gratefully before turning around and following Sheng Ruyan.
Sheng Hongwei looked at Sheng Ruyan and Su Qi to get to know various friends and businessmen of the Sheng family. His mood was a little complicated. He stood next to Mr. Sheng and sighed.
"Dad, Su Qi is obviously an idiot. Do you really want my precious daughter to marry him?"
Mr. Sheng chuckled lightly, "Who Ruyan wants to marry depends on her own wishes."
Sheng Hongwei frowned and whispered.
"That abandoned factory has no commercial value. Even if it is bought back, it can only continue to operate the factory. It cannot be used for the development of residential buildings and commercial streets. What's more, even if it can, Su Qi doesn't have the capital investment at all. Buying that factory and throwing away the money What’s the difference in water?”
"Maybe Su Qi has his own intentions." Mr. Sheng couldn't figure it out, so he could only say a kind word for Su Qi hastily.
Sheng Hongwei snorted coldly and did not continue.
At this moment, Zhou Chen came over with a smile, "Mr. Sheng, Uncle Sheng, I'd like to toast you."
…
The birthday party finally ended after two or three hours.
Just when Sheng Ruyan wanted to take a rest, the servant of the family came to her side and said softly, "Miss, Mr. Sheng asked you to go for a walk to the artificial lake. Su Qi is waiting for you there."
"Okay." Sheng Ruyan curled her lips and immediately went to the lake.
Unexpectedly, the person waiting there was not Su Qi, but Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen was very happy to see Sheng Ruyan.
He had just been able to say nice things in front of Sheng Hongwei for a while, and then Sheng Hongwei agreed to help him and Sheng Ruyan create an opportunity to talk alone.
"Ruyan, we haven't seen each other for a long time. How are you doing recently?"
"Why is it you?" Sheng Ruyan's eyes narrowed slightly, filled with displeasure, "Where is Su Qi?"
The smile on Zhou Chen's face froze, "Su Qi? Aren't you here to date me?"
When she heard the word "date", Sheng Ruyan's eyes instantly became extremely cold, and she turned to leave.
"Wait!" Zhou Chen was anxious and wanted to catch up with Sheng Ruyan, but accidentally touched Sheng Ruyan's hand.
Sheng Ruyan hated the touch of the opposite sex the most, and she already hated Zhou Chen, so she turned around and kicked Zhou Chen into the lake.
When Zhou Chen fell into the water, Su Qi also trotted up in front of Sheng Ruyan, "Baby! Why are you here? I've been looking for you for a long time."
The water at the edge of the artificial lake is not deep. If Zhou Chen stood up, the water would only reach his waist.
"I met a piece of trash." Sheng Ruyan glanced sideways at Zhou Chen, who was getting up in a panic, and said casually.
Su Qi glanced at Zhou Chen and understood everything instantly. She couldn't help but chuckle, kissed Sheng Ruyan and comforted her, "Since he is trash, why should he be angry over a trash?"
Sheng Ruyan curled her lips and felt much better instantly.
Zhou Chen watched the two kissing on the shore and was extremely angry. Just as he was about to have a fit, he saw Sheng Hongwei striding towards this side.
His eyes were fixed on Su Qi, his expression extremely serious.
Zhou Chen was startled, thinking that Sheng Hongwei must have come to help him vent his anger, so he simply did not climb ashore and stood in the lake waiting for Sheng Hongwei to come over.
But what he didn't expect was that Sheng Hongwei walked directly in front of Su Qi without even looking at him, "Su Qi, did you guess that the factory would be demolished?"
What? Demolition?
Zhou Chen was confused and stood in the lake and shouted, "Uncle Sheng!"
