"Holy crap, a single house call costs forty million in fees?! Isn't that robbery?!"
"If I remember correctly, the top ten doctors on the bounty list only charge around 34 million for a single consultation. This is even higher than what they ask for. Do they think they're some kind of reincarnation of Hua Tuo?"
"Don't even mention the Ten Directions Boss. That bounty list is just for show. If the Ten Directions Boss were really willing to make house calls, he could easily give 60 million, let alone 40 million. But is Qin Sheng the Ten Directions Boss? No, she isn't!"
"Exactly, wow, these days, even an unknown little doctor dares to ask for 40 million. This society is probably going to go into chaos."
Qin Sheng's stunning performance tonight garnered her a small group of fans, and upon hearing these comments, she immediately retorted, clearly unconvinced.
"How do you know she isn't? Maybe she is the Ten Directions Boss?!"
Before anyone could refute her, fangirl number one interjected, "Don't be unconvinced!"
"Before Qin Sheng started playing the piano, did you believe she could play so well?"
"Before Qin Sheng started writing, did you believe she could write such sharp and powerful characters?"
"Did you believe she could do it before she solved the complex puzzle?"
"Before she performed the palm dance, did you ever believe that anyone in this world could truly stand on the palm of someone's hand on their own?"
The number one fangirl's mouth was like a machine gun, rattling off a series of parallel sentences, leaving those who had previously mocked Qin Sheng pale-faced, unable to utter a single word in rebuttal.
Seeing this, Fangirl #1 was satisfied and snorted, saying, "There are plenty of talented people in this world. Don't think that just because you can't do it, others can't! A bunch of trash!"
That's a personal attack, and everyone immediately objected: "I accept everything you said!"
After all, they saw it with their own eyes, so they had to admit it whether they wanted to or not. But: "How many years has Boss Shifang been famous? Six years!"
"Six years ago, Qin Sheng was only a few years old, maybe eleven or twelve. You're telling me that an eleven or twelve-year-old girl could cultivate the extinct Turtle Immortal Grass, that a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl could research a life-extending elixir, and that a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl could cure a plague that doctors all over the world couldn't cure?"
Do you even believe what you're saying?
Fangirl number one was a little speechless, but still stubbornly said, "I believe it, so what?"
"Hehe, you can believe it if you want."
The situation wasn't as one-sided as Chi Yuanyuan and Xie Zhen had anticipated, but the presence of doubts, denials, and disputes was still quite good.
Chi Yuanyuan waited a while, until everyone had calmed down, before continuing, "The illness is cured and the money has been paid in full. This matter should have ended here."
"Until two days ago, after my grandfather's condition improved and he regained some energy, he suddenly asked to see the original Wang Xizhi calligraphy that he had previously spent 1.3 billion yuan to buy from overseas."
"But I never expected that the calligraphy that my grandfather treasured and would never even let anyone else see would disappear!"
"We searched the whole house but couldn't find it, so we had no choice but to report it to the police."
“I’m coming with the police to arrest him today, but I’m not coming here unprepared.” She looked at the lead officer and said, “Officer Zhong, please present the evidence.”
Officer Zhong had a bit of a headache.
He did have evidence to come to the Fu family to arrest someone today, but putting aside the fact that the evidence was not sufficient and needed further investigation, he didn't intend to conduct the case in front of so many people just for the sake of the Fu family.
But Qin Sheng was uncooperative first, and Chi Yuanyuan revealed the whole story afterward, so it was no longer a question of whether he wanted to handle the case in public or not.
We're in a bind.
Moreover, even Grandpa Fu told him to produce the evidence and clarify the matter on the spot. What else could he do?
Then take it.
The so-called evidence was actually just a surveillance video showing Qin Sheng walking towards the Chi family's warehouse.
Officer Zhong said, "The recording ends here. I asked the person in charge of the surveillance at the Chi family's residence, and he said that the equipment suddenly malfunctioned that day, and the subsequent surveillance footage was not recorded."
“Actually, this surveillance footage doesn’t prove anything, but if you combine it with this,” Officer Zhong pointed to the gift box the police officer behind him was holding, and continued, “then it will prove something.”
After all, the surveillance footage of Qin Sheng walking towards the Chi family's warehouse could be considered a coincidence, or it could be explained as her simply passing by, but this calligraphy copybook is solid evidence.
Qin Sheng waited until Officer Zhong finished speaking before calmly saying, "Since you say this calligraphy is evidence, then open it and take a look."
Officer Zhong was taken aback and was about to say something when Chi Yuanyuan's voice rang out before him again.
She chuckled and said, "These calligraphy copybooks are worth over a billion yuan. Normally, my grandfather would turn off all the lights in the house and carefully examine them by candlelight if he wanted to even glance at them. With the lights so bright and so many people here, who would be responsible if they were damaged?"
"You?"
"Yes, it's her mother!" Gu Yueming stepped forward to shield her daughter behind her, puffing out her chest and saying, "It's just a calligraphy book worth 1.3 billion. If my daughter likes it, I'd be happy to buy her a dozen or twenty to tear up for fun. Why would I want your money? Do you think everyone is as naive as you?!"
"Take it down! I'll take responsibility for anything, whether it's broken or damaged!"
With that imperious, nouveau riche attitude, and that overwhelming CEO vibe, Qin Sheng almost couldn't help but give her mother a thumbs up.
Then, with a knowing gesture, he raised his chin and said, "Did you hear that? Let's take it apart."
That smug, bullying manner made Chi Yuanyuan's face turn pale with anger.
But here's the problem: who will demolish it?
Don't think it's just a simple matter of unpacking or opening a gift box; this job is not simple at all.
After all, if Chi Yuanyuan hadn't wronged Qin Sheng, this item was a calligraphy copybook worth 1.3 billion yuan. If it was improperly disassembled and slightly damaged, she would still have to bear the responsibility.
Just as everyone was looking at each other in bewilderment, three voices rang out simultaneously from three directions.
"I'll do it."
"I'll do it!"
"I'll take it apart."
It was Fu Jingheng, Chi Sangsang, and Xie Zhen, who had somehow gotten close to them.
Meeting the gazes of Qin Sheng, Fu Jingheng, and the others, Xie Zhen nodded slightly: "I studied cultural relic restoration when I was abroad, so let me do the dismantling."
The only response she received was a soft "oh." Then Qin Sheng reached out and snatched the box from the policeman's hand, quickly unpacked it, and unfolded the calligraphy book to present it to Xie Zhen.
"Since Miss Xie has studied artifact restoration, she must also have some understanding of artifact appreciation. May I ask, is this the calligraphy copybook you are looking for?"
