C61 Happy Birthday
C61 Happy Birthday
Of course, she did not covet expensive items. As long as it was given by Ye Chen, even if it was a book or a handkerchief, it would be enough for her to keep it for the rest of her life.
But she suddenly asked him out, would Ye Chen not have time to prepare?
Thinking of this, Xia Yuting could not help but feel a little discouraged. However, she was not disappointed. After all, Ye Chen was here. As long as he was here, it would make her happier than any precious gift.
Ye Chen was a very powerful figure. He had already guessed what this little girl was thinking from the slight change in Xia Yuting's expression. He couldn't help but laugh, but also felt touched.
He ignored Wen and took out his gift, "This is for you."
Everyone hurriedly looked over and found that it was also a piece of jade. However, the piece of jade Liang Tianhang gave them was meticulously carved. As for this piece, it only had some strange patterns on its surface. It immediately made them feel disappointed.
"I say, this thing couldn't have been bought by a roadside stall for five dollars, right?"
"This guy is too stingy. He is indeed a poor person. Perhaps he had spent all his salary by renting a car. He can only eat instant noodles this month. "
" Xia Yuting has good taste. She didn't like a tall, rich, handsome guy like Liang Tianhang, who was also campus hunk from their school. She actually likes such a ridiculous guy. "
...
Humans are all xenophobic. This group of people saw that Ye Chen had gotten Xia Yuting's favor, which was also their school's campus belle. Even if they did not say it out loud, they would definitely not feel good in their hearts. Now that they found an opportunity, they immediately released all their malicious feelings.
Liang Tianhang had become the representative of this group of people. He stared at Ye Chen and said righteously, "Ye Chen, do you think that Yu Ting is as useless as you? You actually brought out such an embarrassing gift..."
His words awkwardly stopped because Xia Yuting suddenly made a move. She had just expressed her rejection towards the jade pendant that Liang Tianhang had given her, but now she was all smiles as she took the jade pendant from Ye Chen's hand. She put it on her neck and asked softly:
"Does this jade pendant look good on me?"
When she said this, there was only Ye Chen in her eyes. She didn't care about Liang Tianhang or Liu Haopeng at all. The smile on her face was something that no one had ever seen before.
Liang Tianhang was so angry that his entire body was trembling. The others also looked at Ye Chen with contempt. At this moment, the jewelry store's intern finally recovered from his daze and shouted with wild joy:
"My God, this... This jade, could it be the agar jade that caused a huge commotion in the city a few days ago? At that time, everyone in the industry almost went crazy over it and auctioned it at a high price of over 20 million!"
Instantly, the private room fell silent. Everyone couldn't believe their ears. This seemingly ordinary jade pendant was actually worth more than twenty million?
The person who was mocking Ye Chen earlier immediately shut his mouth with an ugly expression. They originally wanted to find a sense of superiority from the other party, but they discovered that the gifts that Ye Chen casually gave out were more valuable than the gifts that they had carefully prepared. What else could they say?
Xia Yuting also turned pale with fright. She liked this jade pendant purely because it was given to her by Ye Chen. She did not expect it to be so priceless!
"This..."
Just as she raised her head to speak, Ye Chen reached out and pressed his hand on Xia Yuting's tender lips. Ye Chen said lightly, "How do you feel?"
Only then did Xia Yuting notice that ever since she put on the jade pendant, her entire person had become refreshed, as if she had endless strength. Even her skin had a luster like water.
Seeing the other party's surprised look, Ye Chen knew that the talisman had already begun to take effect, so he lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Happy birthday."
This jade was sent over by the Shen Family a few days ago. Ye Chen had already agreed to help those people forge the magic tool, so he naturally needed the raw materials. In order to prolong their lives, those people did not hold back and offered the highest quality raw materials. This agar jade was one of them.
After Ye Chen knew that Xia Yuting had a birthday party tonight, he did not hesitate and directly gave this magic tool that was supposed to be given to Shen Tianming to her as a birthday present.
Xia Yuting's face was red as she lowered her head. Her eyes were filled with joy and shyness. She could not help but lean towards Ye Chen's arms. The people beside watched this scene with their own eyes. Some were jealous, some were envious. But they couldn't stop it.
After all, they looked like they were in love, and Ye Chen was more capable than all the boys present. What could they do to oppose him? What right did they have to oppose him?
Liang Tianhang clenched his fists tightly. His heart was filled with hatred, and he gritted his teeth so hard that he almost bit his lips until they bled. Fortunately, the waiter started to serve the dishes, and the atmosphere slowly calmed down.
After everyone ate and drank for a while, Ye Chen went out to find the washroom. He did not expect to suddenly hear a deep voice behind him. "Mr Ye?"
He turned around and saw Fifth Master Hong standing behind him. He could not help but laugh. "It's Fifth Master Hong. Why are you here?"
Fifth Master Hong immediately said respectfully, "Mr Ye must be joking. You can just call me Hong Wu. Miss Shen had set up a banquet in Queen Hotel tonight. I am here to do defense work. "
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "This kind of banquet actually requires you to do defense work. Looks like the identity of the person who came this time is not low."
Fifth Master Hong smiled and said, "It is just some childhood playmates of Miss Shen, but they are also the children of the various big families in Jiang Province. Speaking of which, they came to Haicheng specially because they worship you."
As he spoke, he carefully looked at Ye Chen and said, "Do you want to tell Miss Shen that you are here? She will definitely be very happy. "
Ye Chen pondered for a moment and nodded. "Okay, you tell her first. I will go over later."
After returning from the washroom, Ye Chen sat for a while more. However, he only drank two mouthfuls of water and did not eat any of the dishes.
After all, he was not familiar with this group of people. If not for Xia Yuting, he would have left long ago. If these people wanted to drink with Immortal Emperor, they were not qualified at all.
Ye Chen's attitude also made many people unhappy. They used the alcohol to say something disgusting to Ye Chen.
"What's wrong with Ye Chen? Why is he sitting there without eating or drinking? Is he putting on airs? "
" He's a rich second generation. He usually eats a lot of delicacies. How can he be interested in our rough tea and plain rice? "
"Hmph, I feel disgusted just by looking at him. A man who relies on his father's influence is pretending to be arrogant here."
"Xia Yuting is the same. She usually looks so pure and innocent. I didn't expect that she would actually hook up with the rich second generation in private. Looks like she still values money."
...
This group of people split into a few small groups and were whispering to each other. Although Xia Yuting did not hear them, their words could not escape Ye Chen's ears. He immediately frowned.
Ye Chen did not care how these small fries evaluated him, but he absolutely could not let them slander the people he cared about!
