Chapter 57 Who is to blame?
If before Gu Shengsheng still thought it was just a suspicion, wondering if he was laundering money.
There is no need to doubt it at all now, he is just laundering money.
Now that we have come to this, Lu Chaoyang can do whatever he wants.
After Gu Shengsheng left, Lin Kai asked, "Mr. Lu, should we listen to Miss Gu?"
"No."
Lu Chaoyang rolled his eyes at him.
"Gu Shengsheng just can't stand us being better than her. Before, she stepped on me to get attention and said I was losing face. How can I tolerate this now?"
"You came to persuade me, didn't you just want me to stop competing with her? Doesn't this prove that this pink diamond is really good?"
“…” Lin Kai didn’t know what to say, but he felt that it did make some sense.
However, as Miss Gu's ardent fan, Lin Kai felt that if Mr. Lu didn't listen to Miss Gu, he would definitely suffer.
As expected, Lu Chaoyang argued with Jian Fan for a long time, and finally Jian Fan gave up and gave the 20 million to Lu Chaoyang.
He really didn't understand. This was a "fake thing" of theirs that was deliberately used to launder money. What was Lu Chaoyang trying to steal?
Now that he has snatched it away, it would be unreasonable to give him the cultured diamond.
It must be replaced with a natural one, otherwise how can this auction continue in the future.
The problem is that it is still a bit difficult for people to find this natural pink diamond now, and they may even suffer a loss of 20 million.
Therefore, Jian Fan didn't want to lose money, and the organizers didn't want anything to go wrong. The end result was that Jian Fan, carrying the pink diamond, went to find Lu Chaoyang in person.
The waiter held a pink diamond and Lu Chaoyang reached out to take it, but Jian Fan retracted his hand and took it back.
"Mr. Lu, I've heard a lot about you."
Lu Chaoyang looked at Jian Fan and said indifferently, "What do you want?"
"Mr. Lu, I really like this pink diamond. Can't you give it to me?"
"No." Lu Chaoyang's eyes were sharp. "I can't just give away things I like. Besides, I don't know you well."
“…” Jian Fan was speechless. If he wasn’t afraid of the truth being exposed, he would really want to make him lose money!
Then Jian Fan could only say, "I have a collection of about ten items that I donated. I don't know if they're good or bad, but they're all similar to this pink diamond. Would you like to take a look?"
"Pick one? Then give me this pink diamond."
The pink diamond was auctioned under the name of a multi-level appraisal by many experts, and such a huge mistake could not occur.
But if it is his own collection, and something happens to it, can't he just say he didn't know?
Originally, Lu Chaoyang was not interested, but when he saw many waiters bringing those things.
He walked over to each one and looked at them.
For someone who doesn't know much about antiques, they all look pretty good and don't really matter. Gu Shengsheng also walked over to join in the fun and took a look around.
Very good, none of them are genuine. This is even faker than Panjiayuan.
Is this simplified and traditional Chinese just a scam?
Gu Shengsheng thought that Lu Chaoyang was the executive president of the Lu family after all, so he couldn't be so stupid.
But when Lu Chaoyang saw Gu Shengsheng looking at them one by one, he became a little angry.
"Gu Shengsheng, do you want it?"
“…” No, when did she take the blame?
She immediately explained: "I'm not interested!"
The more she talked about this, the more Lu Chaoyang felt she must be up to something. So he picked two and handed the pink diamond to Jian Fan.
Said: "Take it!"
Jian Fan nodded, and after leaving with the things, he looked back at Lu Chaoyang and said meaningfully, "Thank you."
Gu Shengsheng had never seen anyone so stupid.
But even after she gave him the hint, he still didn't want to listen, so she had nothing to say now.
"Take care of yourself, young man."
After saying that, Gu Shengsheng also left in a cool manner.
Lin Kai twitched his lips. "Boss Lu, don't you need to ask an expert to appraise this thing?! This is worth 10 million!"
"At least the diamond was appraised before."
"It's okay. When he came to me to exchange things, I saw that he wanted the pink diamond. I felt that the pink diamond must be bad. What Gu Shengsheng said later actually made sense."
"Go downstairs and ask the experts to come take a look. What do these two things look like?"
The expert came over in a hurry to take a look and tactfully said that although these two items looked exquisite, they were all produced in Putian.
Moreover, each one is mass-produced, but they don’t know about it because they rarely come into contact with it.
The expert was a little puzzled: "Didn't Mr. Lu auction off that pink diamond before? Why did you exchange these two with someone else?"
Lin Kai doesn't want the young lady to take the blame.
He quickly ran over and said, "This is the photo I took of the pink diamond. Expert, can you take a look and see if it's real?"
The old expert looked at the photo for a long time and said, "Mr. Lu, this pink diamond must be artificial."
"You're not experts in this field, and most people wouldn't be able to tell. But the texture and the angle of the reflection are all noticeable. Even those facets look problematic to me."
What else does Lu Chaoyang not understand now?
Gu Shengsheng did remind him just now, but he was too stupid and did lose 10 million.
I have been making losses today, and I can’t blame anyone else. The losses are all due to my own reasons.
Lu Chaoyang hadn't experienced such a failure in a long time. At least during the few years he had been CEO, he had always been resolute and decisive.
Looking at the expert, he nodded and thanked him: "I understand."
Lin Kai sent the expert out and came back to say to Lu Chaoyang, "It seems that the young lady has no ill will towards you! She still wanted to help you, but you thought too much, so you lost 10 million."
"Boss Lu, you are really asking for death."
If Lin Kai wasn't very capable in handling affairs in the company, Lu Chaoyang would have fired him long ago.
What he said was like stabbing him in the heart.
"Go meet the organizer. Bring these two things. This charity foundation will go bankrupt tonight."
Lin Kai was also very excited about this kind of domineering behavior!
"I'll take the lead, Mr. Lu!"
By the way, tell Gu Shengsheng about the itinerary: Mr. Lu and the foundation are about to take action, Madam.
Gu Shengsheng replied: That’s great, it’s dog bites dog.
…
It was already very late when Gu Shengsheng returned home.
Just as she was about to tiptoe back to her room to sleep, she found Lu Linlin standing at her door in her pajamas, holding Stella Lou.
Gu Shengsheng: "...Are you playing Sadako?"
"Sister-in-law, you came back so late tonight. I have been waiting for you."
"What are you waiting for me for?" Gu Shengsheng hugged herself tightly, fearing that she would pull towards him softly.
She's not the type to cling to other people.
"You've made a lot of money today, so I want to ask you, how can I become self-reliant like you, instead of being a useless person like me, with no job at all."
