"Ruoxi, don't blame your aunt for saying that."
"After all, she's doing it for your own good."
"You really have to be careful when looking for a boyfriend."
"There are many hypocrites in the world who appear virtuous but are actually sanctimonious."
"They say one thing to your face, and another behind your back," Zhang Qiang said sarcastically.
"Zhang Qiang, what nonsense are you talking about?"
“Ye Chen isn’t that kind of person.” Lin Ruoxi said with displeasure, immediately glaring at the other person.
Looking at Zhang Qiang's smug and ugly face, Lin Ruoxi was very angry and wished she could slap him across the face.
Ye Chen gently patted Lin Ruoxi with his hand, looking at her with tender eyes.
"There's no need to get angry over such a trivial matter."
Then Ye Chen looked at Zhang Qiang and said leisurely, "I completely agree with what you just said."
"Because that's the kind of person you are."
"What did you say."
Zhang Qiang's face darkened, and he felt somewhat displeased.
"Ye Chen, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
Ye Chen ignored Zhang Qiang and instead looked at Lin Ruoxi's parents.
"Uncle and Aunt, I'm so sorry for forgetting to bring a gift."
"Zhang Qiang brought gifts, saying they were worth millions."
"But this is just a way to deceive you because you don't understand; it's a complete scam."
Lin Sanguo and Qin Xiulian both frowned.
Zhang Qiang couldn't sit still any longer and jumped out to refute, "Ye Chen, don't talk nonsense."
"Uncle and Aunt, how could I possibly lie to you?"
"Don't listen to Ye Chen's nonsense, he's a treacherous villain."
"Zhang Qiang, of course we believe you."
Qin Xiulian said with a smile, then looked at Ye Chen, "Don't talk nonsense."
"Auntie, am I lying or is Zhang Qiang a liar? Give me the things, and I'll prove it to you," Ye Chen said softly.
"Auntie, give him the things. I want to see how he proves it."
Zhang Qiang stared at Ye Chen with a displeased expression.
Qin Xiulian immediately handed the bracelet to Ye Chen and said coldly, "If you can't prove it, then you should stay far away from my daughter."
Ye Chen had cultivated on the mountain for twenty years and had some knowledge of jade, antiques and other such items, so he was examining the bracelet just now.
With his extensive experience, he could tell at a glance that the jade bracelet was fake.
Now that he has the bracelet on his hand, it further proves his point of view.
There are many ways to distinguish real jade from fake jade.
"I'll choose the two simplest methods: burning and soaking in hot water."
Ye Chen picked up the lighter on the table and burned the jade bracelet.
Before long, the burned area slowly turned black.
"Ye Chen, what are you trying to do?"
"If you break the jade bracelet, can you afford to pay for it?"
Zhang Qiang immediately shouted angrily.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruoxi said firmly, "If the jade bracelet is real, and Ye Chen broke it, I will compensate you for it."
Lin Ruoxi stood firmly on Ye Chen's side.
After all, she was the one who asked Ye Chen for help, so she naturally trusted him unconditionally.
"Ruoxi, that's not what I meant. How could I possibly make you pay for it?"
Zhang Qiang quickly explained, a fake smile on his face.
Lin Ruoxi ignored Zhang Qiang and focused intently on Ye Chen.
I silently prayed that God would bless and help me.
A minute later, Ye Chen extinguished the fire and then placed the jade bracelet into a cup filled with hot water, which is the hot water soaking method.
"Ye Chen, stop playing tricks on me."
"No matter what method you use, it's useless; the real thing can't be faked," Zhang Qiang sneered.
He was convinced that Ye Chen was just faking it and would eventually lose face and slink away with his tail between his legs.
Ye Chen saw that it was about time, so he took the jade bracelet out of the cup, and at the same time, the water in the cup became a little more colorful.
Seeing this, Ye Chen smiled.
"If it is genuine jade, it will not fade after being burned at high temperatures or soaked in hot water."
Ye Chen took a tissue and wiped the areas that had been burned and soaked in hot water.
The next second, something shocking happened.
The originally emerald green jade bracelet has started to fade.
Qin Xiulian's expression changed, and she immediately understood what was going on.
Ye Chen placed the faded bracelet in front of Zhang Qiang, smiled, and said, "Just as I suspected, the jade bracelet is fake."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiang's expression immediately changed, and his face turned extremely ugly.
He stared at the faded bracelet, speechless for a long time.
He had just been swearing that his jade bracelet was genuine.
Moreover, it was worth millions, but it was immediately proven wrong.
Qin Xiulian's face was also not looking good; she was extremely depressed.
Zhang Qiang actually tried to fool her with a fake product.
Taking advantage of the time, Ye Chen used another method to confirm that the teapot was also a fake.
This immediately made Zhang Qiang lose face.
Zhang Qiang looked pale and extremely embarrassed, wishing he could disappear into a hole in the ground.
"Uncle and Aunt, please let me explain."
Lin Sanguo and Qin Xiulian were both in a depressed mood.
But they couldn't really criticize Zhang Qiang, so they could only smile to ease the awkwardness.
Lin Ruoxi was quite happy, and a smile appeared on her face.
She secretly gave Ye Chen a thumbs up.
"Uncle and Aunt, I really didn't know these two things were fake."
"I didn't mean to fool you with counterfeit goods, please believe me."
"Alright, alright, Zhang Qiang, we all know what kind of person you are."
"You were also deceived, it's not your fault," Qin Xiulian said with a smile.
