Chapter 646: Grandpa’s Turn To Embarrass

Everyone watched with gaping mouths as Zhong Nuannuan retrieved the huge chunk of imperial jade from the dazed lapidary. She flipped it around in her hands and inspected it. Then, she pursed her lips and said, “Acceptable.”

Everyone, “...!!!”

How should one control oneself if one thought of bludgeoning her to death?? Urgent! Waiting online!

“Girl, I’ll pay you five billion. Sell me this imperial jade!”

Nobody present in the hall could afford that price. Therefore, no matter how much they longed for the jade, they could not bid.

The person who spoke was Wu Maosong. To be honest, it was Wu Maosong’s first time seeing such a large piece of imperial jade. A jade like this was very valuable even as a decoration at home.

Five billion bucks was not a big deal for the richest family in Sea District. That was why Wu Maosong offered Zhong Nuannuan such a fair price on the spot.

Zhong Nuannuan smiled at Old Master Wu and responded, “Elder Wu, I’m sorry, but this piece of jade is a gift from me to Grandpa. It’s not for sale.”

A flash of disappointment flashed across Wu Maosong’s eyes, but that only made him admire Zhong Nuannuan more.

“What a filial granddaughter. If only I have such a granddaughter as filial as you.”

“Elder Wu, you’ve raised your three children so well. Surely your grandchildren are outstanding as well.”

Wu Maosong laughed. “My grandson is indeed outstanding. He’ll inherit the Wu Group in the future. It’s a pity that you already have a fiancé...”

Old Master Chi, who was busy appreciating the shower of compliments for his granddaughter-in-law, sprung up like a leopard whose tail had been stepped on.

“Hey, hey, hey, stinky old man, this girl is my granddaughter-in-law. Don’t try to cheat on me with the excuse of buying jade!”

When everyone saw that Old Master Chi dared to argue with Elder Wu, they could not help but take another look at Old Master Chi. They all wondered if there was something wrong with this old man’s head. He clearly knew that Old Man Wu’s status was high and mighty, yet he dared to speak to Old Man Wu in such a manner.

Ling Pinyuan had already been so shocked by Zhong Nuannuan that her face paled several shades; that she was so shocked that she could not even speak. When she heard Old Master Chi’s words, she felt even worse.

However, her captain was the only man she fell for. In the past, when the captain was adamant about keeping his distance from women, she could always stay by his side. Even if he did not wish to touch women for the rest of his life, she could stay by his side as a comrade and a friend for all of eternity.

However, she also felt that if the captain had a girlfriend or a wife, that person would be her.

Yet, now, not only did Zhong Nuannuan debunked her initial expectation, Ling Pinyuan did not expect the person following Zhong Nuannuan was her fiancé’s grandfather either.

If Chi Yang was Zhong Nuannuan’s fiancé, then would that not mean that this old master was...

“Grandpa, you... you’re Captain Chi’s grandfather?” Ling Pinyuan walked to Old Master Chi’s side in frustrated regret.

She knew that today’s incident had left a huge misunderstanding in Old Master Chi’s heart. If she could not resolve these misunderstandings today, the obstacle between her and Chi Yang would become much bigger.

Therefore, even if she had offended Old Master Chi before, Ling Pinyuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and apologize at this moment. “I’m sorry, Grandfather. I didn’t know it was you... I, I know that no matter what I say now, you’ll feel that I’m in the wrong. I assure you, today is a huge misunderstanding. I...”

“Young lady, you don’t have to explain anymore.”
