3101 Gifts
Leng Xiaoyao drove Shen Xiyin’s car outside the block she lived in, then she stopped, got out, and went inside.
Halfway there, Leng Xiaoyao received Li Mochen’s call, but the caller was Mu Yiyang.
“Hey, Xiaoyao, I’m leaving tonight. Is it convenient for you to have a meal with us? They’re all familiar faces,” Mu Yiyang asked.
“Sure, where are you?” Leng Xiaoyao agreed without hesitation. Because Mu Yiyang called her with Li Mochen’s phone, Li Mochen must be with him.
She told Mrs. An that she needed to dine with Leng Changyuan, otherwise Leng Changyuan might be upset, but it was just an excuse, so she didn’t need to care about that now.
However, before she went there, she needed to go home. She couldn’t take the two pieces of jade everywhere!
She wasn’t afraid of other people paying special attention to her. She simply didn’t want to carry them all the way.
“We’re in XX restaurant, Room 888,” Mu Yiyang said.
“Great, I’ll be there in a while,” Leng Xiaoyao said. It was nearly 4 pm, and wasn’t dinner time yet, so she had a lot of time.
“Do you need me to pick you up?” Mu Yiyang asked.
“No need, I’ll go there on my own,” Leng Xiaoyao replied.
“Fine!” Mu Yiyang said, not insisting.
Back home, Leng Xiaoyao saw Leng Yecheng walking in the yard with his crutches, while Leng Changyuan watched from the side.
“Hi, Yaoyao, you’re back. What gift did you bring me?” Once Leng Xiaoyao was home, Leng Changyuan walked to her with anticipation. He didn’t forget that Leng Xiaoyao promised to send him a gift.
Leng Yecheng did the same thing, but he walked slowly because of the crutches.
“Isn’t this package too casual?” Leng Yecheng joked when he saw the sack in Leng Xiaoyao’s hand, but he accepted it. He didn’t care what gift Leng Xiaoyao sent him, because he knew it wouldn’t be cheap.
“The package is indeed casual, but the gift isn’t cheap at all, but please don’t take it as a hot potato.” Leng Xiaoyao smiled. She was a bit worried that they might reject it because it was too expensive.
However, it wasn’t up to them. Since she prepared gifts for them, they had to accept them.
“Oh, it sounds luxurious…” Leng Yecheng guessed that the price of the gift must be high. As a result, he hesitated to accept it before seeing it.
Leng Changyuan, however, didn’t think the gift would be too expensive because Leng Xiaoyao didn’t have much money in his opinion. Moreover, it was a gift from Leng Xiaoyao, so he cherished it.
“My love is most valuable, right? Let’s go inside to see them. It’s not right to show off my wealth outside,” Leng Xiaoyao said mysteriously.
The more Leng Xiaoyao acted like that, the more Leng Changyuan and Leng Yecheng were curious about it.
They went back to the living room, where Song Meiyu was also.
Seeing Leng Xiaoyao, Song Meiyu was displeased. Leng Xiaoyao was like a thorn in her side, but she couldn’t walk away the moment they walked inside. She was mainly afraid that Leng Changyuan would be mad at her.
In the living room, Leng Xiaoyao directly took the jade out.
Leng Xiaoyao took out the violet jade first. She only had a sack, and nothing else to pack the jade in, so she took the jade out at once.
“Purple stone?”
Because no one thought of jade, they thought it was a stone when they saw the violet jade.
“But this stone looks beautiful. I think we can make handicrafts with it,” Leng Changyuan said. Even if it was a stone, he didn’t show any disappointment.
A purple stone?
Leng Xiaoyao put on a resigned look, but it was understandable that they didn’t know what it was. Besides, they knew barely anything about jade, and they had no idea that she would bring jade home.
Song Meiyu knew little about jade, but she didn’t think of the jade at this moment. She thought it was a stone too, so she immediately mocked. “Oh, Xiaoyao, you sent your grandfather a stone as a gift?”
“So what? This stone is beautiful and I like it.” Leng Changyuan argued. Even though it was a stone, he liked this beautiful stone.
“Grandpa, this is not a stone. This is a piece of violet jade, which is worth over twenty million yuan,” Leng Xiaoyao said.
“What? Jade? It’s worth over twenty million yuan?”
Hearing that, everyone was shocked. Looking at the violet jade, they couldn’t believe their eyes.
They didn’t know about the types of jade, but they were aware of the high value of jade.
“How is it possible? Where did you get so much money to buy such expensive stuff?” Song Meiyu didn’t believe it. She refused to believe that Leng Xiaoyao had money to buy such expensive jade. She didn’t want Leng Xiaoyao to be so rich.
“Right, where did you get money to buy such expensive jade?” Leng Changyuan agreed. He didn’t doubt Leng Xiaoyao, but he was full of surprise and confusion.
Leng Yecheng understood that Leng Xiaoyao was rich enough to buy jade, but he felt the jade wasn’t worth twenty million yuan.
Most importantly, what was the use of the jade?
Everyone liked valuable objects, but they weren’t so rich as to keep expensive collections.
With twenty million yuan, they could do a lot more meaningful things.
“I obviously wouldn’t pay twenty million yuan for the jade. I went to the antique street today and paid eight million yuan to buy a half-cut raw jade material. And I cut this violet jade out of it. Uncle Yecheng should know how I got so much money. I joined the stock market with Uncle Yecheng the other day, and I made twenty million yuan!” Leng Xiaoyao said.
“What? You paid eight million for stone gambling?”
Everyone was shocked again. They couldn’t believe that Leng Xiaoyao paid eight million yuan for a piece of jade which was worth over twenty million yuan through stone gambling.
Leng Xiaoyao knew about stone gambling? She cut out jade?
Although they couldn’t do stone gambling, they knew about the game. However, it was very difficult to cut out jade and was highly likely to lose. However, Leng Xiaoyao successfully cut out a piece of valuable jade.
Moreover, Leng Xiaoyao also said that she had made twenty million yuan with Leng Yecheng from the stock market the other day. That was too unbelievable!
“Is this true?” Leng Changyuan asked Leng Yecheng.
“It’s true. I made dozens of millions of yuan as well,” Leng Yecheng admitted. Since Leng Xiaoyao said it aloud, he would obviously admit it.
Since Leng Yecheng admitted it, Leng Changyuan believed them.
Song Meiyu, on the other hand, was extremely jealous.
