"This calligraphy and painting is too valuable, I can't accept it." Zhou Keqiang thought for a long time and couldn't help but shook his head.
Although he really wanted it, he would not be rewarded for his efforts. Qi Huasheng's paintings were so valuable that if they were put up for auction, they would cost at least one billion.
As the mayor of Jinling City, he is an honest official, so it is naturally impossible for him to accept such a valuable thing.
He returned the calligraphy and painting, but Zhou Qin on the side reached out and snatched it away.
She glanced at her father and said with a faint smile: "I gave it away, why are you coming back? Do you like this calligraphy and painting? Ye Chen is not an outsider, dad, just take it."
Her words were not only meant for Zhou Keqiang, but also made it clear to Liu Chenyang that she had a boyfriend and should stop wasting time on herself.
But Liu Chenyang heard it but didn't take it seriously. He sat on the sofa and sipped tea with his third uncle.
Zhou Keqiang had a battle between heaven and man in his head for a while, and finally nodded and accepted Ye Chen's kindness.
After all, he really loved this calligraphy and painting. If he missed it, he might not be able to sleep for several nights.
"Thank you." Zhou Keqiang said, thanking Ye Chen politely.
"Uncle, you're welcome. This is a little thought of mine. It has nothing to do with whether I am rewarded or not."
Ye Chen smiled faintly. At this time, he was mature, prudent, and very cultured. He was completely different from his usual cynical appearance.
This made Zhou Qin a little surprised. Ye Chen's acting skills were so decent. If she hadn't known Ye Chen for a while, she would have thought that this was the real Ye Chen.
"Uncle's gift is here, what about aunt's." Luo Min said suddenly, her eyes kept glancing behind Ye Chen.
Zhou Qin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was a very casual mother and actually asked Ye Chen directly for a gift.
"Here's the gift."
Ye Chen smiled faintly and handed over the gift box wrapped with the Jade Bodhisattva.
"It really does."
Luo Min was a little surprised. She was just teasing the junior, but she didn't expect that Ye Chen actually prepared a gift for herself.
For a moment, Luo Min's eyes looked at Ye Chen with a softer look.
Regardless of character, it is really rare to do this thing flawlessly.
"Let me know what treasure is inside Kangkang. If it's not as valuable as your uncle's calligraphy and painting, I won't want it."
The corners of Luo Min's mouth raised slightly, and a hint of subtle cunning flashed deep in Luo Min's eyes.
The gift box was opened, and a flawless jade Bodhisattva came into view.
"This...is this the Jade Guanyin from Xue Wufu? Eight hundred and eighty thousand, my God, I have wanted to buy it for a long time, but I have never been willing to part with it."
Luo Min's eyes widened with surprise on her face. She was a little shocked by Ye Chen's handwriting.
When Liu Rengui on the side saw this, he couldn't help but burst into anger. He was trembling all over. He was purely angry. That thing should have belonged to him.
Liu Chenyang smiled slightly and patted his third uncle's shoulder gently to extinguish the anger in his heart.
"Don't be impatient." Liu Chenyang said softly to Liu Rengui.
Liu Rengui snorted coldly and looked elsewhere.
"Thank you, Ye Chen. My aunt likes this Jade Guanyin very much." Luo Min said with a smile. She played with the Jade Guanyin and couldn't put it down.
"As long as Auntie likes it. When I see other high-quality ones in the future, I will buy them for Auntie." Ye Chen smiled lightly.
Luo Min was overjoyed, looked up at Ye Chen, and nodded with satisfaction.
This young man is really good. He knows how to respect his elders and is upright.
However, at this moment, Liu Chenyang suddenly sneered and said, "Buy? I don't think so. Did you really buy the Jade Bodhisattva in your hand?"
As soon as these words came out, the living room suddenly became extremely quiet.
Zhou Keqiang and Luo Min also all looked at Ye Chen, with strange expressions on their faces.
Liu Chenyang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said such a sentence, which was obviously not fabricated out of thin air.
Could it be that Ye Chen really obtained this Jade Guanyin through dishonorable means?
"This is indeed not the money I spent." Ye Chen glanced sideways at Liu Rengui and said with a sneer: "Some fool spent money to buy this jade Guanyin as a gift to my girlfriend. If you don't take it, you won't take it for free. What do you think, this Brother Liu?"
Liu Chenyang was choked so much, but he couldn't refute it yet.
This matter was indeed something his third uncle did stupidly. From Ye Chen's point of view, I'm afraid he wouldn't refuse the pie falling from the world.
"But you not only took his things, but also changed your phone number, and even verbally abused my third uncle. I must settle this account with you." Liu Chenyang said coldly.
"You still have the nerve to say that that fat winter melon is your third uncle. He is already very old and still wants to eat swan meat. Are you not afraid that your third aunt will find out and take care of her when she returns home?" Zhou Qin asked, her face filled with tears. Contempt, "It's really disgusting to think that you can get all the women in the world with just a little money. If not, who are you trying to cheat?"
"As the saying goes, Brother Liu, who seems to have a very good relationship with your third uncle, actually chose to stand up for your third uncle at this time." Ye Chen ridiculed.
Zhou Keqiang frowned slightly as he listened to several people's opinions. He seemed to understand the cause of the dispute.
If what his daughter and Ye Chen said were true, then the character of the Liu family would be evident.
"You are talking nonsense. Of course I am not as lustful as my third uncle." Liu Chenyang said angrily.
He is the dignified young man of the Liu family, but he doesn't want to be labeled as a playboy.
"Then you just look down on your elders." Ye Chen smiled evilly.
"You..." Liu Chenyang was choked up again, but this time, he did not engage in a verbal dispute with Ye Chen, but instead turned his attention to Zhou Keqiang and his wife.
With anger on his face, he said sternly: "Uncle and aunt, this guy talks all about cheating. He is not a good person at first glance. Let someone drive him out. Such garbage is not worthy of Qin Qin at all."
"You are the rubbish, and your whole family is rubbish." Ye Chen was still cheerful at first, but when he heard Liu Chenyang's words, he immediately became upset and retorted rudely.
"Look, uncle and aunt, this guy is of low quality and full of foul language. Don't let Qin Qin follow his example and become bad." Liu Chenyang, the villain, complained first.
Zhou Keqiang frowned and said nothing for a while.
But Zhou Qin couldn't help but said: "Obviously you first said that my boyfriend is trash, but now you bite back and say that my boyfriend is of low quality. You, the Liu family, really have double standards."
Liu Chenyang's expression was uncertain. Originally, he came here to propose marriage to Zhou Keqiang.
If they can marry Zhou Qin, the Liu family and the Zhou family will be strong and support each other, and it is very likely that they will be promoted to the level of the Yan family within two or three years.
Now it seems that this plan may be ruined.
Zhou Qin was so protective of Ye Chen, even if he wanted to use some despicable means, he couldn't.
If it arouses Zhou Keqiang's resentment, the gain outweighs the loss.
Thinking of this, Liu Chenyang had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye to Zhou Keqiang and Luo Min.
"Auntie, I still have some things to deal with at home, so I'll leave first." Liu Chenyang said politely.
Then without waiting for Zhou Keqiang and his wife to respond, he directly took his third uncle and left here.
However, the moment he went out, his face suddenly turned extremely cold.
For him to lose such a big face, this matter will never end.
