Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 316

As the president of the Dragonville Antique Association, Shawn Liang's arrival immediately attracted the attention of a lot of people. Many people came over to greet him.

Shawn responded to everyone's greetings with a smile. He seemed rather polite.

However, when his gaze fell on Old Mr. Tu, his expression changed and became serious. "Old Tu, you're here too!"he said.

Old Mr. Tu said in a bad mood, "Since you are here, why can't I come?"

Shawn was not angry and he said, "Of course, Old Mr. Tu, you can come here. But I'm determined to acquire the Buddhist treasure being auctioned off this time. At that time, I'm afraid that you will return empty-handed."

Upon hearing this, Old Mr. Tu immediately gave a cold snort and said, "It's still too early to say who will return empty-handed !"

"It seems that you are quite confident, Old Mr. Tu!" Shawn said and he smiled. "I just don't know how lucky you will be this time, and whether or not you will manage to bid on something worthwhile, Old Mr. Tu,"he continued.

"You don't need to worry about that! You'd better take care of your own matters first," Old Mr. Tu replied in a bad mood.

Hearing this, Shawn laughed and said, "Oh don't you worry, I've taken good care of my matters. This time, I have hired Master Qi to be my purveying specialist. I was just wondering who is your purveying specialist, Old Mr. Tu?"

Upon hearing the name of Master Qi, Old Mr. Tu's expression started to change. His expression turned gloomy and anxious.

Caesar Tu explained to Fade Chen, "This Master Qi was originally a purveying specialist in Capital City. But he was expelled from the city later on because he had offended a rich man there. He came to Long City and was hired by Shawn for a lot of money to be his purveying specialist."

The masters from the Capital City, even if they had some flaws, were still people from the Capital City after all. And when they came to a place like Long City, they would still inevitably be popular.

When Fade nodded, Shawn saw the solemn look on Old Mr. Tu's face and said sarcastically, "Old Tu, why are you quiet? Are you going to be your own purveying specialist this time round?"

"Tsk tsk, to be honest, Old Tu, in our circle, your eyesight is considered not bad. But compared with a professional purveying specialist, you are still far behind. Not to mention Master Qi as well, but you are not even close to his level at all. You know, the Buddhist treasure this time, I've acquired it in advance. Haha!" Shawn said and he laughed proudly.

Old Mr. Tu got angry and he immediately shouted, "Who said I didn't hire a purveying specialist? This person right here, Fade, is my purveying specialist."

"This person, a purveying specialist?" Shawn said. He took a glance and observed Fade's youthful appearance and the way he was dressed. He immediately shook his head and said with a smile, "Oh Old Tu, if you want to give up on yourself, you don't have to do this! If you want to hire this young kid to be your purveying specialist, you might as well just appraise the items yourself with your reading glasses!"

Old Mr. Tu snorted coldly and said, "You can't even begin to comprehend how powerful Fade is. You'll find out when the time comes."

"Haha, Old Mr. Tu! We are all acquaintances in the circle. Don't be so stubborn," Shawn said. He pointed to his peers around him and laughed. "Just by looking at your purveying specialist, I thinkContent from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

we should stop talking about his true potential. It would be good enough if he is able to distinguish the differences between all the materials of these antiques."

Old Mr. Tu was so angry that he started to become flustered. Right then, Caesar couldn't stand it anymore. He stood out and spoke coldly, "What's the true potential of Mr. Chen's purveying skills? You'll find out when you ask your grandson Donny. Don't be embarrassed when you get slapped in the face then."

"Donny, he..." Shawn said. He was slightly shocked and then turned to look at his grandson.

When Donny Liang saw Fade, he started feeling anxious. That was why he had been hiding behind the crowd earlier, hoping that Fade wouldn't see him. However, he didn't expect his grandfather to call him forward.

"Master Liang, I haven't seen you in a while. I don't know if you still remember what had happened last time?" Fade asked.

Donny trembled suddenly and his expression changed. Then, he twitched his mouth and forced himself to pretend that he didn't know who Fade was. He said, "What happened last time? I don't know what you are talking about!"

"Really? Then I'll remind you, Master Liang," Fade said. "90 million. Do you remember now, Master Liang?"he asked.

Donny's expression changed and his face shook violently. His tone was a little flustered, but he still pretended not to know anything. "What 90 million? I don't understand what you are saying, and I don't know what you're talking about,"he answered.

"Haha, looks like Master Liang needs me to explain everything in detail!" Fade said, and he smiled coldly.He was prepared to clarify the situation.

Right at that moment, a bell rang. The host on the stage stood up and said, "Everyone, the auction is about to begin. Please take your seats."

As the auction was about to start, the discussion between Fade and Donny was interrupted, so everyone sat down on their own seats.

Fade and Caesar looked at each other, and they both looked serious. Donny's attitude just now was already very obvious, showing that he didn't want to admit his debt of ninety million .

Donny was feeling uneasy. He could not calm down at all, as though there were ten million alpacas running wildly in his heart.

After the last scam was exposed, he had promised a compensation of 90 million to protect himself. But he had regretted his decision as soon as he returned to Long City.

Even if the Liang Family was rich, taking out ninety million at once would definitely be a huge expense, which was not an amount he could move around easily either. Moreover, since returning home, his energy and confidence had recovered. The more he thought about the matter, the more he felt that Fade was not someone to be afraid of. So he made up his mind to deny the debt of ninety million yuan. He had never brought up the previous incident in conversation at home at all.

When Shawn saw that his grandson had reacted just now, he asked, "Do you know that purveying specialist? And what's this matter with the 90 million?"

Donny's expression changed and he was not willing to speak.

Shawn knew from his grandson's reaction that he was hiding something from him. He frowned because he could feel faintly that something was wrong.

By then, the host had explained the rules of the auction and asked the staff to bring out the first item.

After one round of introductions, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became more lively, and a lot of people had started to bid on the items.

As the first auction item was like a warm-up item, the price would not be too high usually. In the end, it was sold at the price of one million yuan, and the auction had also officially begun.

One by one, the items were brought up, and the atmosphere at the auction became lively. However, Old Mr. Tu had not made a move yet. Obviously, he was gathering all his financial resources to bid for the Buddhist treasure.

Shawn, on the other hand, invited Master Qi, who was right next to him, to go forward and take a look. He bought a few small items at low prices. For a while, he caused Master Qi's name to become even more popular.

Many rich businessmen cast eager and envious glances at him. Apparently, they also wanted to have a sharp- eyed purveying specialist like him.

Seeing this, Shawn became more and more proud, and he deliberately looked over at Old Mr. Tu.
