41 -37 I Don’t Understand
“This pipe looks somewhat old?” Lin Lanxin continued to gaze at the pipe, asking out of curiosity.
Old?
As soon as Lin Lanxin asked this question, Lin Tonghai, whose complexion had just improved, abruptly turned even more sullen.
Su Chen had actually thought to bring a pipe, which somewhat surprised him and made him feel that Su Chen was being considerate, as the pipe fit his taste perfectly, and he really liked pipes, having collected quite a few of them.
But an old pipe, what did that imply?
It implied that it had been used!!!
Was this a sign of disrespect towards him, Lin Tonghai?
Was he only worthy of old pipes?
“Giggle…” Lin Fen couldn’t help but laugh, her laughter full of mockery.
Lin Tongzhi, Lin Tongchuan, and Zheng Li all wore looks of disdain as they stared at Su Chen, as if looking at a beggar.
What a disgrace!
Lanxin looked guiltily at Su Chen, truly it was just an unintentional, curious question, but she hadn’t expected…
she had spoken out of turn!
Her eyes grew somewhat red; it would be all her fault if her father and the others came to dislike Su Chen because of this!
“Lin Lanxin, oh Lin Lanxin!
What’s wrong with you?
Why do you always hinder rather than help?” Lin Lanxin bit her lip, questioning herself internally, filled with immense regret for her careless remark.
The next second, Su Chen suddenly said, “This pipe is an antique, so it appears old.”
As soon as Su Chen said this, silence ensued!!!
The entire hall fell quiet, until several breaths later.
“Hahaha…” Lin Fen burst into exaggerated laughter, “An antique?
Su Chen, don’t tell us that this pipe is worth millions?”
“Young man, it’s okay to be poor, but you must be honest,” Lin Tongchuan said, his voice serious and heavy with a didactic tone.
“Exactly, the thing I hate most in my life is liars!” Lin Tongzhi snorted, turning up his nose at Su Chen.
Su Chen remained calm as he looked at Lin Fen, “Whether this pipe is worth hundreds of thousands, I don’t know.
I had a friend procure it for me, and he didn’t tell me the price!”
“What about this ring then?
Is it made of jade?” Lin Fen asked teasingly, as if toying with a fool.
“It should be jade!” Su Chen nodded, because from the information about the people from the Lin Family he saw that Guo Qin liked jade jewelry, so when he asked Liu Tianxiong to prepare the gifts, he specified the need for jade jewelry, hence he was certain that the ring was made of jade.
“Alright!
If you say it’s jade, it’s jade; if you say it’s an antique, it’s an antique!” Lin Fen couldn’t help but look at Lin Lanxin, “Lanxin, your boyfriend is very good!”
The words “very good” were spoken by Lin Fen with extreme emphasis!!!
“Close the gift box,” Lin Tonghai said to Lin Lanxin in a very unpleasant tone.
It was an utter humiliation; Su Chen’s disgrace was her disgrace and thus an embarrassment to him as her father.
Although he had intended to humiliate and trouble Su Chen, hoping to make Su Chen give up on his own, he still held a sliver of hope for Su Chen.
What if Su Chen really had some redeeming qualities, and was truly outstanding?
He might have made an exception if so, especially since his daughter really liked him.
But now, all Lin Tonghai felt was rage.
“I…” Lin Lanxin wanted to say something in defense of the two gifts Su Chen brought, though she didn’t understand pipes and antiques, but that ring, it felt very much like real jade, with its texture and color certainly indicating jade!
If there was any complaint, it was that the quality was too good, so good that it was hard to believe it was real.
“I said close it!” Lin Tonghai raised his voice sharply, his eyes burning with anger.
Lanxin had no choice but to close the gift box, feeling wronged on Su Chen’s behalf.
As for Su Chen, from beginning to end, he showed no change in expression.
“Lanxin, you don’t really think they are jade and antiques, do you?
You must be under the influence of a Soul-Confusing Drug!” Lin Tongzhi said discontentedly, “If you’re really so persistent, I can make you lose hope soon.
Your aunt and uncle are coming over later, and your uncle is an authoritative figure in antiques and jade, a well-known name throughout Chengfeng City.
Let him appraise them, and then it will all be clear!”
The ‘aunt and uncle’ Lin Tongzhi mentioned were relatives by marriage, not blood, but they were close to the Lin Tonghai family.
They’d also come over today because of Su Chen’s visit, however, since they lived far from the Lin Family Villa, they hadn’t arrived yet.
“This…” Lin Lanxin was somewhat tempted.
She really didn’t want Su Chen to be humiliated, and she truly didn’t think Su Chen would deliberately bring fake items pretending they were real, as that wasn’t the kind of person Su Chen was.
Yet, if everything was real, where could Su Chen have possibly gotten that much money from?
It just didn’t add up, so she hesitated.
“We must verify!!!
We absolutely can’t misunderstand any good person!” Lin Fen said loudly, fearing chaos wouldn’t ensue.
“Yeah, I think so too, we must verify!” Lin Tongchuan also nodded in agreement, similarly wanting to see a joke unfold.
Guo Qin sighed but said nothing.
“You all chat, I’m a bit tired!” Lin Tonghai’s face was now as unsightly as the color of a liver, and he didn’t even want to speak anymore.
If it weren’t for wanting to save some face for his daughter, he would’ve wanted to drive Su Chen away right then.
Even though he restrained the impulse to drive Su Chen away, he also didn’t want to continue talking to him!!!
“Lii, you guys chat!” Lin Fen quickly said to Zheng Li beside her.
Zheng Li nodded, his face wearing a smile of one who was confident in his success.
He slightly lifted his head, looking at Su Chen, “Young Master Su has already started college, I wonder, after graduating from college, what are your plans for the future?”
“I might not finish college!” Su Chen spoke honestly.
It would take another four years to finish college, but within four years, he would definitely have entered the Martial Arts World.
Upon Su Chen’s words, silence fell once again.
Lin Tonghai found it hard to even breathe!
Su Chen’s response was simply…
simply so infuriatingly disgusting to the extreme.
A penniless guy with nothing to his name, his only hope was that third-rate college, and he didn’t even want to finish it.
How could he lack ambition to such an extent?
And yet, he had the audacity to openly admit it.
How shameless could he be?
Lin Tonghai was even beginning to feel despondent.
He believed his daughter was exceptional, to an extreme extent, a pearl of a kind.
How could she have set her heart on such a thing?
And she was so steadfast about it too.
“Not finishing isn’t a problem, in this era, education isn’t everything.
Ability is also key.
If Young Master Su has any specialties, it will be easy to find a job in the future.”
Zheng Li said with a smile, “Young Master Su attends the School of Finance, so you must be interested in finance, right?
In the future, we should keep in touch more, exchange ideas on finance and management!”
But Su Chen shook his head, “I’m not very knowledgeable about finance and management.”
What?!!!
Su Chen’s answer once again made the situation awkward.
Not understanding finance and management?
Then what’s the point of attending the School of Finance?
Just to kill time?
Is he really planning not to finish college?
Lin Fen, Lin Tongchuan, Lin Tongzhi, and the others didn’t know how to describe Su Chen anymore.
He was an ignorant, thick-skinned, lying, utterly worthless poor kid.
Oh right, also an orphan.
Truly good for nothing!
“Smack!” Lin Tonghai could no longer restrain himself.
He abruptly stood up and slammed his hand on the coffee table, glaring furiously.
He was just about to say something when he was stopped by Guo Qin, “Tonghai, look, Lanxin’s aunt and uncle have arrived!”
Indeed.
At the entrance of the hall.
Two middle-aged people arrived.
The middle-aged woman looked somewhat plump, with a jade necklace around her neck, jade bracelets on her wrists, and curled hair.
The middle-aged man was somewhat short, bald, and wore glasses.
“Auntie, Uncle!” Lin Lanxin greeted.
Lin Fen, Lin Tongchuan, Zheng Li, Lin Tongzhi, and others also stood up to greet them.
“You must be Lanxin’s boyfriend, right?
Ha ha…
quite the handsome young man!” The middle-aged woman then approached, looking at Su Chen with a friendly smile.
“Uncle, there are two treasures.
Could you help identify them?” Lin Fen couldn’t wait anymore, truly couldn’t wait and said directly.
She was so eager to see Su Chen being humiliated all the way to the Pacific Ocean that just the thought of it made her practically tremble with excitement!!!
“You poor nobody, just wait for your lies to be completely exposed, huh?
Just wait for your second uncle to kick you out directly!” Lin Fen excitedly muttered to herself in her heart, unable to resist taking another glance at Lin Lanxin, her eyes full of pride and smugness.
In choosing men, Lin Lanxin was tens of thousands of levels below her, Lin Fen, wasn’t she?
