Ye Zhanxiong was sitting on the sofa with an air of nonchalance and a calm expression, as if he had known about the relationship between Lin Yifeng and Ye Yuqing for a long time.
However, when he saw Lin Yifeng take a safe out of Ye Yuqing's room and then take a large bowl out of it, he was completely unsettled.
"This big bowl..."
Ye Zhanxiong's eyes were very bright. He watched as Lin Yifeng carefully took a large bowl out of the safe. He quickly stood up from the sofa and then squatted down in front of Lin Yifeng's safe.
"Old man, give me a good eye check!"
Lin Yifeng handed the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl to the old man Ye Zhanxiong.
The Ding ware lotus-patterned bowl was a bargain find for Lin Yifeng and Bai Yejin at Jinghua Garden. This Ding ware lotus-patterned bowl represents the pinnacle of porcelain craftsmanship and could be worth over 50 million in later generations.
This is a good piece of work; it can be said to represent the highest level of art of an era.
Ye Zhanxiong was clearly an expert; when he carefully took the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl from Lin Yifeng, his usually steady hands trembled slightly.
The old man pressed his face almost against the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl.
He didn't bring his reading glasses, and with his failing eyesight, he could only examine the patterns on the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl by pressing it against the surface, much like someone with nearsightedness.
Lin Yifeng felt something was strange. Logically speaking, people with presbyopia should not be able to see things clearly up close, so how could they be so close?
Lin Yifeng kept this question in mind. His gaze fell on the old man, and seeing him carefully observing and touching the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
Is this Veronica Yip's grandfather?
So what?
If you have a weakness, I can easily bribe you.
What is Ye Zhanxiong's weakness?
That must be porcelain.
Back then, Ye Zhanxiong had a strong dislike for Lin Yifeng's Jianzhan teacups.
Now, upon seeing the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl, Ye Zhanxiong seems like a completely different person.
He went from being a tough, ruthless general to an old man who loves antiques.
The charm of the Ding ware lotus-patterned bowl is truly unparalleled.
Ye Zhanxiong stroked the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl as if it were a precious treasure, occasionally exclaiming in amazement, "What beautiful patterns, what exquisite glaze!"
It's unclear how much time passed before Ye Zhanxiong reluctantly returned the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl to Lin Yifeng.
"Good stuff, good stuff!"
"A masterpiece of the Song Dynasty, a Ding ware lotus-patterned bowl, you actually have such a treasure."
Ye Zhanxiong looked at Lin Yifeng intently, as if it were his first time seeing him, and shook his head: "Young man Lin, where did you get this Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl?"
"Don't tell me about your family tradition or anything. I've investigated you. You're just an ordinary vocational school graduate. Your hometown, Paishi Village, is very poor."
Lin Yifeng chuckled. Good heavens, you actually investigated me?
No wonder no one stopped me from getting so close to Veronica Yip, or anyone else jumped out to stop me. It turns out you've already investigated me!
"I got it at a bargain!"
"I snagged a bargain for a few hundred yuan!"
Lin Yifeng paused for a moment: "Grandpa, you know Jinghua Garden, right? Hey, I went to Jinghua Garden a while ago. The employees there were embezzling and took out a lot of good stuff from there."
"They don't know anything about antiques; they only know that gold is expensive, and they overprice the other porcelain items."
"I bought this Ding ware lotus-patterned bowl from them for several hundred yuan!"
"Finding a bargain?"
"Did employees of Jinghuayuan steal from their posts?"
Ye Zhanxiong observed Lin Yifeng's expression and, seeing that Lin Yifeng didn't seem to be lying, he immediately fell into deep thought.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yifeng quickly put the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl into the safe, his face full of vigilance: "Grandpa, you're not going to make me return it, are you?"
Before Ye Zhanxiong could answer, Lin Yifeng directly brought up Ye Yuqing: "Old man, let me tell you, this thing is no longer mine."
"Even if you want to return it, it's no use telling me. Go talk to your granddaughter!"
"This Ding ware lotus-patterned bowl is at your granddaughter's house. If you can convince your granddaughter, you can return it!"
After saying that, Lin Yifeng locked the safe and put it back in its original place.
"Grandpa, the combination to the safe is your granddaughter's birthday. Besides the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl, there's also a lot of gold inside. You can take a look for yourself."
The safe's combination wasn't Ye Yuqing's birthday, but Lin Yifeng was certain that even if Ye Zhanxiong liked the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl, he wouldn't take his granddaughter's things.
Lin Yifeng, feeling confident, put the safe back in Ye Yuqing's closet. He decided that after Ye Zhanxiong left, he would change the safe's combination to Ye Yuqing's birthday.
kindness.
Regardless of whether Ye Zhanxiong can drive or not, he must ensure that what he says is true.
Lin Yifeng's series of moves left Ye Zhanxiong completely bewildered. Ye Zhanxiong looked Lin Yifeng up and down and realized that he should reassess Lin Yifeng.
This kid Lin has quite a few tricks up his sleeve.
After showing Ye Zhanxiong the Ding kiln lotus-patterned bowl, Lin Yifeng fell silent. Ye Zhanxiong then resumed his imposing posture, keeping his gaze fixed on Lin Yifeng without saying a word.
An eerie silence fell over Ye Yuqing's room until seven or eight minutes later, when the door was pushed open again.
Veronica Yip is back.
Today, she had her hair up in a bun, and she was wearing a light blue long-sleeved shirt, dark jeans, and white canvas shoes.
Veronica Yip has very long legs, especially when she wears jeans, which accentuates her slender legs and her round and perky buttocks.
