Chapter 28 Excitement



“It’s absolutely true!”

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's truly a fairy product!"

"Old Su, how come such a capable girl became yours?"

"Oh my, this is incredible! It's Xiao Yuqi's original work! Old Su, from now on, I must move into your house. You can't refuse to welcome me!"

The flattery made Mr. Su's heart, which had been fluctuating greatly, rise and fall all the way!

His mother, at his old age, has to endure such stimulation. It is really hard for him!

On this side, no one in the Su family thought that the painting was actually real.

Su Jianxing really wanted to raise questions, but at the moment, she couldn't say anything.

The exclamation from the other side attracted Wen Jinglan's full attention.

She temporarily stopped questioning Su Yuchen.

...

...

She quickly wiped away her tears, and even ignored Su Yuntian, who had his arms around her shoulders, and only cast a look full of loving love at Su Jianyue.

Su Jianyue met his gaze and got goosebumps all over her body!

Instead of feeling the ecstasy she had imagined, she just felt terrified.

When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong!

"Yue girl, Yue girl, come here quickly!"

Old Master Su smiled and waved towards Su Jianyue.

Su Jianyue just avoided Wen Jinglan's sight.

Xiao Yuqi also followed.

The crowd spontaneously made way for Su Jianyue.

As soon as Su Jianyue approached her grandfather, Ji's grandfather grabbed her wrist.

"Girl, tell me quickly, where did you get this painting?"

Su Jianyue’s smile froze on her face.

Her initial plan was just to come over, give the gift and then leave.

However, ever since she agreed to bring Xiao Yuqi along, everything that happened next went awry.

Su Jianyue looked at Xiao Yuqi for help. What should she do now?

Xiao Yuqi gently waved his folding fan.

"This painting was originally privately owned by Xiao. Miss Su's filial piety touched me, so I gave it to Miss Su as a gift to you, Grandpa Su. I wonder if Grandpa Su is satisfied?"

Everyone turned their eyes to Xiao Yuqi at the same time.

He was dressed in an ancient style and spoke in an elegant manner. Yet, in this place where all the heads of the aristocratic families in Yuncheng gathered, no one recognized him.

If you think about this matter carefully, you will find it strange.

Look at what he is wearing.

The brocade robe with gold thread embroidery and the jewelry that are casually exposed are all full of nobility.

A golden crown, a golden hairpin, a jade bone fan, a gold and jade belt, a pair of jade pendants hanging from the waist, a scent bag, and boots on the feet...

Hiss, is that jade?

Full green icy jadeite?

The questioning look gradually turned into curiosity.

Mr. Ji held the magnifying glass in his hand close to the jade pendant hanging around Xiao Yuqi's waist.

The pattern of a golden dragon flying through the moon and the five-clawed golden dragon are carved vividly with exquisite craftsmanship.

Looking at the quality of the material, the craftsmanship of the carving, and even the tassels on it, their color seems to be made of silk.

“This is ancient jade!”

Old Master Ji could not hide the excitement in his heart, and the next moment, everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Yuqi's waist.

As if he remembered something, Mr. Gu suddenly said, "Old Ji, when we went to the National Museum last time, did we see a pair of jade pendants similar to this in the Tianyu Dynasty exhibition area?"

The carving of the golden dragon flying through the moon is exactly the same, but the difference is that the pattern on the edge is not dragon scales, but water ripples.

That was something held by the queen of the Tianyu Dynasty. When it was unearthed from the imperial tomb, it caused a wave of enthusiasm in the archaeological community.

Mr. Ji looked serious.

He put down the magnifying glass in his hand and looked carefully at Xiao Yuqi's handsome face.

Asked: "Mr. Xiao?"

"yes."

"May I ask, Mr. Xiao, where did this pair of jade pendants on you come from?"

"It's a family heirloom, not worth mentioning!"

A family heirloom?

hiss!

There were gasps from the crowd.

Such a valuable thing, even if you put it in a safe, you are afraid that someone will steal it, but he just hangs it on his body like this?

And it's hung so obviously?

This brother is really rich!

Mr. Ji's expression was even more excited than when he had just concluded that the ancient painting was authentic.

"One last question, where does Mr. Xiao live?"

Su Jianyue quickly answered this question: "Jun'an City!"

Xiao Yuqi raised his eyebrows but did not refute.

She was afraid that Xiao Yuqi would answer with Jian'an City!

Jian'an City changed its name eight hundred years ago.

Su Jianyue felt relieved and pretended to be calm. "His ancestral home is in Jun'an City!"

“That’s right!”

Master Ji whispered, "Right, right!"

He looked at his old friends.

The old men present all knew what he was talking about!

The person in front of me is facing the legendary buyer!

The fallen heart is suspended again.

Su Jianyue asked tremblingly: "What...what matched?"

Mr. Su patted Su Jianyue on the shoulder and said, "It matches the information of the mysterious buyer!"

Su Jianyue took a long time to finally figure out what they were talking about!

Stimulate!

How could this kind of question and answer, where one extra word would reveal the truth, lead everyone's thinking astray to such an extent?

Everyone's eyes looking at Xiao Yuqi changed again.

Became shocked and unbelievable.

"Mr. Xiao, I wonder if I have the honor to discuss the details of this painting with you?"

Xiao Yuqi folded his fan and said, "Of course you can!"

Su Jianyue wanted to pull the person away immediately.

However, before she could pull anyone out, someone pulled her out of the crowd.

The person who pulled her out was Su Yuntian.

No!

Su Jianyue was still struggling.

She felt that at this moment, she and Xiao Yuqi were like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl who were forced to separate from their lover by being drawn out of the Milky Way by the Queen Mother!

Although, Xiao Yuqi did not receive any brain waves from her calling him.

Su Jianyue swore that if she brought Xiao Yuqi to such an occasion again, she would be a dog!

Su Yuntian pulled Su Jianyue to the edge of the banquet hall.

"Yueyue, how do you know Mr. Xiao?"

Wen Jinglan also followed and took the initiative to stand on the side of Su Jianyue.

The words between the lines are all about defending Su Jianyue: "It's my daughter's freedom to make friends with whomever she wants. Even if you are her father, you shouldn't interfere too much!"

"Jinglan, listen to me, if Mr. Xiao is really the one the rumors say, then for our Su family..."

"Yuntian, you know I don't like you like this!"

Su Yuntian didn't say anything else.

Out of curiosity, Su Yuchen also went to Xiao Yuqi, wanting to see the true appearance of the ancient painting.

Su Jianxing watched the people around her turn around and leave one by one. The painting that she had worked so hard to get was completely forgotten in the corner.

She lowered her eyes and gritted her teeth.

Su Jianyue, I want you to die!

The dinner officially began with a Chinese-style table and Chinese dishes.

Xiao Yuqi called himself an emperor, ruling the country, seeing all the mountains and rivers, and tasting all the delicacies.

But when it was in front of him, the automatically rotating crystal dining table, filled with delicacies he couldn't even name, once again refreshed his understanding of the world.

They would eat at the same large round table, with everyone enjoying the same dining treatment.

This pattern, which seemed extremely strange to Xiao Yuqi, seemed to have become commonplace to everyone here.

He concealed the shock in his heart and continued to chat and laugh, but he would inadvertently observe the actions of the people around him.

"Mr. Xiao is indeed very knowledgeable. I wonder if I have the honor to add you on WeChat. If I come across any ancient artifacts related to the Tianyu Dynasty in the future, we can discuss them!"
