Chapter 319 - Gifts

The King’s Green jade was worth over a hundred million yuan; it could be worth far more than just a hundred million yuan. Master Leng was short of words to describe his feelings now.

“Shaoting, your girlfriend is so incredible! She’s able to pick out real antiques and cut out high quality jade.” Master Leng had thought that Leng Shaoting had merely chosen a beautiful young girl, but to his surprise, the girl was really talented.

“You’ll find out more,” Leng Shaoting said.

“Nevertheless, it’s too expensive!” Master Leng felt more uneasy this time. The King’s Green was worth over a hundred million yuan after all! Over a hundred million yuan wasn’t much to the Leng Family, but it was too expensive if it was just a gift. Even the Leng Family wouldn’t send a gift at that price to others. In fact, Gu Ning was just Leng Shaoting’s girlfriend and they hadn’t gotten married yet. Therefore, Master Leng wasn’t Gu Ning’s family right now, but she was willing to send him such an expensive and rare gift. Master Leng was astonished by Gu Ning’s generosity.

“Please don’t worry. It wasn’t hard for her to cut out the King’s Green, and she won’t take back what she has given away,” Leng Shaoting said, although he had the same thought as his grandpa. Since Leng Shaoting said so, Master Leng could only take the

gifts.

“Well, let me send a gift back to her!” Master Leng said, and was about to find something for Gu Ning, but was stopped by Leng Shaoting. “Don’t bother please. I didn’t tell her that you already know that I have a girlfriend, because she wants to keep it a secret for now. She told me to send you these two gifts under my name, but I didn’t want to waste her kindness, so I told you the truth,” Leng Shaoting said.

“What?” Hearing that, Master Leng was shocked. Unexpectedly, Gu Ning had no intention to let him know that she had prepared the two gifts for him. Master Leng believed that Leng Shaoting wouldn’t lie to him, so he now thought more highly of Gu Ning than ever.

Leng Shaoting didn’t stay there very long. He left right after seeing Master Leng. It seemed like he really didn’t take this house as his home. Other than Master Leng who understood that Leng Shaoting was in a hurry to get back to his girlfriend’s side, the other members in the Leng Family thought that he must be occupied with business in the military. Leng Shaoting was an important figure in the military after all, and he must be busy especially at the end of the year.

Leng Shaoting didn’t want anyone else in the Leng Family to know that he had a girlfriend, so Master Leng promised to keep it between them. Master Leng was curious about Gu Ning, but Leng Shaoting didn’t allow him to investigate her, so he had to give up the idea.

However, Leng Shaoting even refused to tell him the girl’s full name, which confused Master Leng, but if Leng Shaoting didn’t want to tell him, Master Leng couldn’t force him to say it.

After Leng Shaoting left, Master Leng immediately called someone. “Hi, Master Jiang! I just got Zhao Mengfu’s Luo Shen Fu. Why don’t you come over and have a look tomorrow?”

Master Jiang’s full name was Jiang Zhongyu. He was an old friend of Master Leng, and he had been the head of National Antiques Association before, so he naturally had great affection towards antiques. Although he was retired now, he was still influential in the antique industry. Hearing that, Jiang Zhongyu was excited. “What? Zhao Mengfu’s Luo Shen Fu? Really? You’re a bad person that you call me now but tell me to visit you tomorrow! How will I be able to sleep tonight! No, I’m coming right away, and you must stay awake and wait for me!”

Jiang Zhongyu of course couldn’t wait till tomorrow. He walked out of his room quickly and shouted upstairs, “Jiang Ruining, get out here now!” Jiang Zhongyu was already 70, but exercised a lot, so he was still full of energy. Within seconds, a handsome young man around 20-years-old appeared at the stairs looking downwards. “Grandpa, what’s wrong?”

Jiang Zhongyu noticed that Jiang Ruining was still in his nightgown. “Change your clothes right now, and drive me to the Leng Family’s house.”

“It’s so late now. Why are you going to the Leng Family’s house?” Jiang Ruining asked.

“Stop asking questions, you have only two minutes!” Jiang Zhongyu ordered. Jiang Ruining immediately went back to his room and got changed. A minute later, he walked out again.

Luckily, the Jiang Family’s house was just two streets away from the Leng Family’s house, so Jiang Zhongyu arrived after a few minutes.

Leng Changzhi was waiting for Master Jiang at the door. Thus, the minute that Jiang Zhongyu arrived, they went to Master Leng’s study. Jiang Ruining had to admit that his grandpa was a complete antique addict! It was a winter night, and he still came here without hesitation. Jiang Ruining had to follow his grandpa.

In the living room, there was only Leng Shaoxun. Seeing Jiang Zhongyu, Leng Shaoxun greeted him with respect, but was ignored. Leng Shaoxun was already used to it, because he understood the reason why Jiang Zhongyu was here.

Jiang Ruining had no interest in antiques at all, so he stayed in the living room watching TV with Leng Shaoxun. “The New Year festival is around the corner. Will Shaoting come back home?” Jiang Ruining admired Leng Shaoting as much as Leng Shaoxun did, and he had also been trained by Leng Shaoting along with Leng Shaoxun. Although he couldn’t compare with Leng Shaoxun, it wasn’t difficult for him to defeat several ordinary men by himself.

“Shaoting has come back these past two days, but he only stayed here for a few minutes. I have no idea why he’s so busy. I think that he will probably come back home during the festival.” Leng Shaoxun wasn’t sure actually, because Leng Shaoting didn’t spend the New Year festival with them every year.

In the study, Jiang Zhongyu asked Master Leng excitedly. “Where is Luo Shen Fu? Let me have a look now!” Saying that, Jiang Zhongyu went straight to the study desk and appreciated the Luo Shen Fu placed on it.

The next day…

An Guangyao and the others took the earliest flight at 7:20 am, and arrived at the capital around 10:30 am.
