Chapter Fifty-Seven: I Got a Great Treasure!
Perhaps Mr. Xu was truly intimidated by Butler Ye's words, because he unconsciously sat up straight during the meal.
For a moment, only the sound of quiet eating filled the dining table.
Until Butler Ye temporarily left the restaurant according to the script.
Mr. Xu breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Butler Ye leave the restaurant.
Mr. Xu put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Wang: "Xiao Wang, have you always been like this in the Pei family?"
"Yes, Father, Yan Chuan is very good to me, it's just that the Pei family values rules a lot." Xu Wang emphasized the words "values rules a lot".
“It’s good that you value rules. Your mother and I also value rules. From the day we knew you were coming, your mother and I prepared gifts for you and the Pei family boy.” Mr. Xu reached out his left hand and pressed down on Mrs. Xu’s hand, successfully silencing her question.
"Really? Father and Mother even prepared gifts for me and Yan Chuan?" Xu Wang asked with delight.
“Yes, you sit here and wait for your mother and me to get it.” Mr. Xu pulled Mrs. Xu out of the restaurant.
The two of them, pulling and tugging at each other, walked to the stairwell.
"Honey, what were you saying to him just now? When did we prepare a gift?" Mrs. Xu asked, puzzled.
"Go and get our family heirloom jade right now," Mr. Xu said irritably as he released his grip.
"Are you crazy! I don't want it, it's mine." Xu's mother immediately refused.
"Just take it, hurry up." Mr. Xu completely ignored Mrs. Xu's refusal.
"Husband!" Xu's mother stamped her foot anxiously.
"Go quickly!"
Having no other option, Xu's mother had to take the jade pendant down from upstairs.
Mr. Xu took the box, but Mrs. Xu was reluctant to let go.
"Look at your stingy attitude. Once we successfully latch onto the Pei family, what can't we get? We'll buy you other things then." Mr. Xu snatched the box from Mrs. Xu's hands.
Xu's mother's heart began to soften after hearing what Xu's father said.
The two returned to the restaurant together.
With a smile, Xu's father placed the wooden box in front of Xu Wang.
Xu Wang pretended to be pleasantly surprised as he took the box and carefully opened it to take a look.
Xu Wang's pupils contracted as he looked at the clear green jade in the box. This old guy still had such a treasure in his hands.
Xu Wang looked up with an embarrassed expression: "Father, isn't this too beautiful? Isn't it a bit too expensive?"
"How could that be? This is for you two, so please accept it. As long as you two live a good life, that's more important than anything else," Mr. Xu said with a smile, waving his hand.
"Then I will thank Father on behalf of Yan Chuan." Xu Wang gently placed the box aside.
Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Mr. Xu slowly began to bring up company matters.
Xu Wang was overjoyed to have received such a wonderful treasure and was happy to continue the conversation.
It wasn't until Xu's father sighed and said that business had been bad lately that Xu Wang took out his phone and made a call to the driver.
The driver came in holding a contract.
Xu Wang took the contract and gently pushed it in front of his father: "Father, Yan Chuan had mentioned to me before that the family business might not be doing so well. This is a small token of our appreciation. Please don't think it's too little."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Xu quickly picked up the contract on the table and began to read it. The more he read, the wider his smile became. Although the project on the contract wasn't a big one, it was still worth several million.
Although Mr. Xu still felt it was a bit too little, he firmly believed that if he could get on the Pei family's big ship, the contract, which was worth a few million now, would be worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions in the future.
"Hahaha, great! Xiao Wang, please thank Xiao Pei for me!" Father Xu laughed out loud.
Seeing this, Xu's mother felt much less unhappy, and she began to think about what jewelry she would buy once she had money.
Everyone enjoyed the dinner.
Xu Wang was personally seen off to the car by his father and his family.
The car drove further and further away, and soon the Xu family members were out of sight.
Xu Wang looked at the jade pendant in his arms and a big smile appeared on his face. This was truly an unexpected delight.
When the car arrived home, Xu Wang saw Pei Yanchuan standing at the door waiting for her, dressed in black pajamas. She couldn't wait to push open the door, get out of the car, and rush into his arms.
"Looks like today went smoothly." Pei Yanchuan hugged the person in his arms tightly; he hadn't seen the other person for two hours.
That night, Xu Wang lay in Pei Yanchuan's arms and told him in detail what had happened that night.
Pei Yanchuan listened quietly, occasionally nuzzling Xu Wang's head with his chin in response.
Time flies, and soon the two received a notification from the show's director that the recording of the third episode was about to begin.
