Prepare for surprise
746 Words
When Xiao Churan left the Xiao Group, she was extremely excited. Tomorrow, her grandmother would officially announce her new appointment, and she could finally feel proud.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but express her gratitude to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, thank you! If you hadn't encouraged me, I wouldn't have dared to take on this task."
Ye Chen smiled and replied, "Honey, you deserve this."
He continued, "By the way, wife, do you want to celebrate such a big happy event?"
Xiao Churan nodded, curious, "How do you want to celebrate?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "It happens to be our third wedding anniversary soon. Why don't we celebrate it together? I'll make the preparations; you don't have to worry about it."
Surprised, Xiao Churan asked, "Are you trying to surprise me?"
"Yes!" Ye Chen nodded, grinning, "I just want to prepare a surprise for you!"
Feeling sweet, Xiao Churan replied, "Then I won't ask you what it is specifically!"
Ye Chen assured her, "No need to ask, just wait!"
In order to prepare a special wedding anniversary for his wife, Ye Chen thought of many plans. Generally speaking, the focus was on compensation. After all, he was poor before and had no money to buy gifts for his wife, and he didn't even give her a formal wedding. Now that he was wealthy, he must compensate her well.
After parting from his wife, Ye Chen went alone to a jewelry store called Cuigexuan in the center of Jinling.
Cuigexuan was the most famous local jewelry store, offering gold, platinum, diamonds, jade, and emeralds—everything imaginable.
Ye Chen, wearing a four-striped Adidas shirt, was ignored by the shopping guides, who assumed he couldn't afford anything.
After browsing for a while, Ye Chen found an exquisite jade necklace locked in the cabinet. Made of the highest quality ice jade, it was elegant and perfectly suited for Xiao Churan.
Checking the price, it was thirteen million, a small sum for him.
He called a salesman, "Hello, please take out this necklace and let me take a look."
The salesman glanced at Ye Chen and said, "I don't have the key. The key is in the hands of our manager."
Using the intercom, he informed, "Manager Wang, someone wants to see our store's treasure!"
Soon, Wang Yan, the sales manager, arrived excitedly. Seeing Ye Chen, she felt disgusted.
How could such a hanging silk afford a treasure?
She scolded the salesman, "Xiao Liu, are you kidding me?"
Xiao Liu insisted, "No, this gentleman really wants to see the store's treasure."
Wang Yan scoffed, "Can such a hanging silk afford it? If you're blind, just say so and get out to avoid making me angry!"
Wang Yan prided herself on being an excellent judge of people. She believed Ye Chen was a pauper and a loser, incapable of affording even an ordinary necklace.
Ye Chen frowned and asked, "Aren't you open for business? I want to see this necklace. What's wrong with it?"
Wang Yan sneered, "We are open for business, but not for mentally retarded people. If you can't afford it, don't come and join in the fun!"
Ye Chen pressed further, "How can you tell that I can't afford it?"
Wang Yan dismissed him, "This jade is worth tens of millions. Are you here just to show off on social media? Even if you have money, you're not qualified to buy it!"
Ye Chen was irritated but maintained his calm. He took out his phone and dialed Tang Sihai's number.
"Come to Cuigexuan and prepare 13 million in cash for me. I want to see you in ten minutes."
"No problem, Master, I'll be there right away."
Wang Yan smirked, "I'm addicted to acting! I also paid 13 million in cash. I've never seen so much cash in my life. I hope you can open my eyes!"
Ye Chen nodded and said, "Since you've never seen so much cash, you'll see it soon."
As everyone discussed the situation, Wang Yan continued to belittle Ye Chen. She ridiculed, "I bet you're here to take pictures for social media. Such a show-off!"
Ye Chen ignored her and waited patiently.
A few minutes later, several Rolls-Royces stopped at the entrance of Cuigexuan. Eight bodyguards in black suits stepped out, carrying black suitcases. Their presence was imposing, and the atmosphere turned solemn.
This scene shocked everyone in Cuigexuan. Where did this big shot come from to have such a pomp?
