Chapter 156 Treasure Appraisal 1
He Chuan looked at the girl in front of him with some surprise. His mind flashed to a thin, dark-skinned girl with small eyes. She had changed a lot since she grew up. Her skin had become a little whiter and her eyes had become a little bigger, but she was still ugly! His wife was still prettier.
He Chuan replied indifferently: "It's been too long, I can't remember clearly."
Yang Lekang was not expecting He Chuan to answer like that. He stood there in a state of embarrassment. He was about to continue the conversation by reminiscing about the past but it got stuck in his throat. He coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment and turned to introduce He Chuan to his daughter, "This is He Chuan. The one next to him is his wife, and the other one is his friend."
Liu Mei was also surprised when she heard Yang Lekang's introduction. This beautiful woman in front of her was He Chuan's wife? The man next to her didn't look ordinary either. He looked fierce and fierce. He must be a soldier. Didn't He Chuan come back from the countryside? How could he know so many people?
It's no wonder that Yang Lekang and Liu Mei were surprised. Although they knew He Chuan's parents for a long time, Yang Lekang was actually just a friend of He Chuan's father. He didn't know much about He Chuan's mother's family background. He only knew that He Chuan's mother came from a good family and the courtyard house where they lived after their marriage was He Chuan's mother's home.
Because of her brother's special status, He Chuan's mother rarely introduced him to others, so few people knew her brother's identity. Moreover, ten years ago, He Chuan's uncle's status was not as high as it is now.
Perhaps if Yang Lekang knew the identity of He Chuan's uncle at that time, he might have had some concerns, and perhaps what happened later would not have happened.
At this moment, Yang Qian was also fascinated by the man in front of her. He was He Chuan? How could he look like a peasant from the countryside? Yang Qian stared at the man's handsome face, his straight figure, and the noble aura that emanated from him. She had never seen such an outstanding man before.
Is this He Chuan, the one she'd been engaged to since childhood? Yang Qian looked at He Chuan as if he were her own husband, completely forgetting that her father had just introduced the woman next to her as He Chuan's wife.
Ever since Yang Lekang's rise to prominence over the years, Yang Qian has become increasingly spoiled and arrogant. She's always being flattered, praised, and looked down upon, giving her a false sense of self-esteem, believing she's the most beautiful and outstanding.
Yang Lekang pointed to the pile of items on one side of the hall and said with a smile, "Xiaochuan, your aunt has found all the things on the list for you these past two days. Please check them. If there is no problem, you can write a certificate to your uncle to prove that everything has been returned. Then our matter is over and done with."
He Chuan and Su Tao turned around and saw more than twenty items of various sizes placed on the open space on the left side of the hall.
He Chuan didn't expect that Yang Lekang had really found all the things. He thought that the old man would make excuses again, saying that he couldn't find them or that a few things were missing.
"Hey, let me check it." He Chuan took out the list and checked it one by one.
Yang Lekang and Liu Mei looked at He Chuan nervously as he examined each item on the list, not daring to make a sound.
Just as He Chuan roughly counted the quantity and items and found that they were basically consistent with the description on the list, he was about to speak when he was grabbed by Su Tao beside him.
After hearing what He Chuan said that day, Su Tao felt that Yang Lekang was not the kind of person who would be so honest as to spit things out. When He Chuan was counting the items, Su Tao carefully observed the expressions of Yang Lekang and Liu Mei.
