The words of Commander Chen silenced everyone in the hall.
The butler, who was about to add water with the teapot, trembled, nearly dropping it.
He then dared not to add water, carefully placing the teapot on the table as if it were a treasure.
Two... twenty million?!
Seeing the bewildered expressions on these people’s faces, Commander Chen seemed to recall something, "Don’t you know? This teapot was auctioned last month at an auction in B City. Because the set was incomplete, it only fetched twenty million. I didn’t expect you to complete the set."
After hearing this, Ye Ming and Xun Peipei were dumbstruck, their eyes wide and unblinking.
Who would have thought this worn and tattered teacup could actually be an antique worth tens of millions?
Especially considering how Ye Shaohua had carelessly knocked the teacup on the table, wasn’t she afraid of damaging it?
The butler’s mouth twitched.
By the time Ye Shaohua returned, Commander Chen had already left.
The three people, including Ye Shaohua’s grandfather, were sitting on the couch, and everyone in the family, including the butler and the servant, watched her intently.
"What’s going on?" Ye Shaohua looked at her grandfather.
Her grandfather’s voice trembled slightly, "Shaohua, how much did you spend on the teacup you gave your grandfather?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Shaohua knew that her grandfather might be aware of the teacup’s price, and she didn’t hide the truth, "I bought it from an acquaintance. Altogether, it was just thirty million."
The butler looked at Ye Shaohua with a peculiar gaze.
He had thought that the least promising of the Ye Family was this Young Lady; he never expected that in the end, she would turn out to be the ultimate boss.
"You still claim you didn’t sell the rights to your paper," Xun Peipei stood up abruptly and pointed at Ye Shaohua, "hiding it from your father. Your father truly raised you in vain all these years!"
"I never sold that paper," Ye Shaohua couldn’t bother to pay attention to Xun Peipei and only looked towards her grandfather, "Grandfather, I didn’t tell you because I wanted you to use it freely."
Ye Shaohua’s grandfather didn’t know what to say anymore; his wrinkled face beamed like a chrysanthemum.
"You’re still making excuses. If you didn’t sell it, where did you get the thirty million from!" Xun Peipei had always known that Ye Shaohua must have sold her paper, but she never confessed.
Fifty million, with thirty million used, and after taxes, there would still be over ten million left.
Ye Shaohua’s grandfather cast a cold glance at Xun Peipei, "Even if she sold it, what does it have to do with you two?"
"But Old Master, she’s lying..." Xun Peipei wanted to say something else when Ye Ruxue and Chu Yan arrived at the Ye Family.
They overheard Xun Peipei’s arguing.
"Mom, what’s wrong?" Ye Ruxue’s complexion seemed off, but she didn’t want Xun Peipei to make a bad impression on Chu Yan.
Seeing the two, Xun Peipei spared no details, "Shaohua published a paper in a Science Journal and a laboratory in M Country bought the rights for fifty million. She lied to us, saying she didn’t sell it, but then she spent thirty million on a set of tea ware for your grandfather. If she didn’t sell it, where did she get that money? Even if she sold it, we couldn’t have taken the money. Instead, she kept lying to your grandfather, claiming she didn’t sell it."
Ye Ruxue and Chu Yan were unaware of Ye Shaohua’s acceptance into M Polytechnic University.
They always thought Ye Shaohua had dropped out in her senior year of high school.
Hearing Xun Peipei’s words, both were completely stunned.
Even Chu Yan looked incredulously towards Ye Shaohua.
He was aware of the Science Journal as his own advisor had tried several times to get published there but was never successful.
Now, hearing that Ye Shaohua had published a paper there, he looked at her as if meeting her for the first time.
"Ruxue, Young Master Chu, you both speak up. It’s one thing for her to deceive us, but she even lied to the Old Master, it’s just..."
"No," Chu Yan looked at Xun Peipei, interrupting her, "Miss Ye probably hasn’t lied to you. She didn’t sell the rights to the paper."
"How’s that possible? If she didn’t sell it, where did she get so much money from..." Xun Peipei disbelieved.
"Because of ’All Gods Blue Sky’," Chu Yan said, daring only now to look at Ye Shaohua, "She is Ye Liu, the author of ’All Gods Blue Sky’. The royalties from ’All Gods Blue Sky’ exceed ninety million in a year."
Upon hearing Chu Yan’s words, the entire family was taken aback.
Before Ye Shaohua’s grandfather and the others could speak,
a servant excitedly blurted out, "Really? Is the Young Lady Ye Liu herself?!"
Ye Liu was a legendary figure in the literary world.
Seeing the gazes of these people transfixed on Ye Shaohua and their discussions about ’All Gods Blue Sky’, Ye Ruxue lowered her eyes, no longer wanting to listen and headed upstairs.
How ridiculous, she used to think the person who had nothing wanted to crush her presence with a piano.
She thought Ye Shaohua would be jealous of her, but she didn’t expect that Ye Shaohua had already been standing on a much higher place than her.
They found the cafe by exit number four, "The beige coat..." fгeewebnovёl.com
"Are you disgusting or what?" Qing Chengse didn’t reply, but the man beside her did, "You’re the one blasting someone’s privacy for no reason, even getting your fans to send dead mice to Bufu, that’s truly disgusting!"
"She was the one who deceived people first," Nan Mo retorted with a sneer. "We’re not here to argue with you today; you guys are here looking for that swindler Bufu Shaohua, we’re here for Tiankong Xuesnow."
Nan Mo finished speaking and looked at a woman dressed in a beige coat some distance away.
He could only see the woman’s side profile, but that profile alone was mesmerizing, causing almost every person passing by to slow down involuntarily.
His heart rate was uncontrollable, thinking that must be Tiankong Xuesnow.
Before he could take a step forward, a somewhat plump figure approached, "Are you Nan Mo?"
Nan Mo, hearing the familiar gentle voice, turned around with surprise: "Tiankong Xuesnow..."
However, as soon as he uttered these words, he gazed at the woman in front of him, wearing a pink wool sweater and plump in figure, and he was somewhat startled.
This person... was the rich and beautiful Tiankong Xuesnow from the Weibo photos?
The man beside Qing Chengse asked blankly, "This is Tiankong Xuesnow?"
Qing Chengse and her group had seen photos of Tiankong Xuesnow; the person in those pictures was elegant and beautiful with a great figure, which was vastly different from this plump person in front of them, right?
Ye Ruxue was somewhat puzzled, "Yeah, Nan Mo, are you not happy to see me?"
Nan Mo and the others smiled, "Not at all."
But their faces all showed signs of disappointment, Ye Ruxue may be a bit overweight, but she wasn’t that ugly—it’s just that the difference from her photos was too great.
With expectations set too high, it was inevitable to be very disappointed when seeing the real person.
Qing Chengse scoffed, still calling herself the top goddess of the voice acting circle.
She was about to lead her group to find Bufu Shaohua when she saw the beautiful woman at the cafe entrance turn around.
She was walking towards them with a young man, no less striking than those in the Entertainment Circle.
The woman was wearing a complete beige outfit.
Qing Chengse paused for a moment, a sense of unimaginable possibility surged from within.
Then, the woman, boasting a pair of black and bright eyes, stopped in front of her. She used a falsetto for voice acting, so now her voice was lowered into a lazy, cool tone as she asked, "Um... are you Qing Chengse?"
Qing Chengse and the few people, planning to meet with Bufu Shaohua, widened their eyes in shock, "The...the goddess?"
