86: Chapter 86: I’ll Only Charge You 10 Million (Added Chapter) 86: Chapter 86: I’ll Only Charge You 10 Million (Added Chapter) Ye Haochuan took out his phone and glanced at it, sowhat surprised.
It was a call from Han Xue’er, the little nurse from Haishan University Hospital, whom he hadn’t been in contact with for quite a while.
After pressing the answer button, Ye Haochuan said with a smile, “Xue’er, what’s up?
What do you need from Brother Ye?”
“Brother Ye, are you at the school?” ca Han Xue’er’s crisp and pleasant voice from the earpiece.
Instantly, the image of Han Xue’er’s pretty and cute face popped into Ye Haochuan’s mind, and he laughed, “No, I’m out at a social engagent.”
“Oh.”
The tone sounded a bit glum, and Ye Haochuan felt it was strange and said, “What’s wrong, Xue’er?
Did soone insensitive upset you?
Tell Brother Ye, and I’ll go sort them out for you—guaranteed to have them picking teeth off the floor!”
A burst of giggling ca through the phone, obviously amused by his words.
“It’s nothing, Brother Ye, I was just casually checking up on you.
Alright, you must be busy with your socializing, so I won’t bother you any longer.”
Just casually checking up?
Is that really sothing you just casually do?
Ye Haochuan felt that the girl clearly had sothing she wanted to ask him, but before he could get a clear answer, she had already hung up the phone.
After putting away his phone, Xiao Haii suddenly pursed her vibrant red lips, smiling and asked, “What’s the matter?
Your girlfriend was looking for you about sothing?”
“What girlfriend?
That’s just Han Xue’er, the little nurse from our Haishan University Hospital, you know her.”
“Oh, her.” Xiao Haii sort of rembered and then a smile crept back onto her face, “Doctor Ye, I didn’t expect you to be so charming.
I’ve heard a lot of girls are chasing after you.”
Ye Haochuan chuckled, “Just average, my only fault, if any, is being quite popular with the ladies, haha.”
Used to his shaless boasting, Xiao Haii decided to pass over that remark and continued, “Doctor Ye, about the proposition I made earlier—I wonder…”
“You an you want to buy the authentic work of Gu Kaizhi that I have?” Ye Haochuan raised his eyebrows.
“Yes,” Xiao Haii nodded.
Ye Haochuan hesitated, “Sister i, considering your personality, you don’t seem like soone who enjoys collecting antiques, right?
However, if you do want to buy it, it won’t be cheap.”
“One billion, right?
Although it’ll be a bit difficult for to co up with so much money all at once, I can sign a contract with you.
I’ll pay a down paynt first, and in a few days, after I’ve raised the funds, I’ll pay the balance.
How does that sound?”
It seed that she must have heard about the price of the authentic Gu Kaizhi from Brother Ding.
To be honest, Ye Haochuan himself was planning to sell this authentic Gu Kaizhi to a major buyer.
Since Xiao Haii wanted it, why not sell it to her?
With all her wealth, who better to sell to?
“Of course, there’s no problem…
But, I am curious, why do you want to buy it?
For your collection?”
“Not really.” Xiao Haii hesitated a bit, then decided to just tell the truth, “Actually, I want to buy your Gu Kaizhi authentic painting mainly because my family’s old master’s birthday is coming up.
He really likes collecting, especially the works handed down by Gu Kaizhi, so…”
Ye Haochuan suddenly understood.
Previously, Brother Ding had ntioned wanting to buy the painting from him as a birthday gift for the old master, so he had no doubt about the truth of Xiao Haii’s words.
“How much can you put down as a down paynt?” Ye Haochuan asked.
“Ten million.
I can make a direct bank transfer,” she replied.
“Great, no problem.
You can transfer it to later; my Alipay account is my phone number,” Ye Haochuan agreed readily.
Xiao Haii made a sound of acknowledgnt and said, “Don’t worry, Doctor Ye, I will gather the remaining ninety million as soon as possible to pay you.
Right, this is a purchase contract I drafted and printed before I left.
Take a look, and if everything is okay, we can sign it.”
Ye Haochuan took a contract, glanced over it, and imdiately tore it up.
“Doctor Ye, what are you doing…” Xiao Haii said with a puzzled face.
Ye Haochuan laughed and said, “Sister i, do you think I, Ye Haochuan, am the kind of person whose eyes light up at the sight of money?
When I was down and out, it was you who allowed to stay at Haishan University Hospital, giving a place to set foot in Haishan.
I have always kept this kindness in my heart.
This authentic Gu Kaizhi painting, with a market value of well over a hundred million, I won’t take a cent for it, and I believe you wouldn’t either, so I’ll only charge you ten million.”
“Ah!” Xiao Haii evidently hadn’t expected him to be so grateful and didn’t know what to say for a mont.
Indeed, as Ye Haochuan said, this authentic Gu Kaizhi painting had a market value of well above a hundred million.
If he had sold it to soone else, he could have made a fortune, but without a second word, he sold it to her for ten million.
This kind of magnanimity, treating money like manure, truly was admirable.
For the first ti ever, Xiao Haii began to feel fondness toward this sowhat lecherous rascal.
“Alright, Sister i, we’ll go back to the university later, and I’ll give you the authentic Gu Kaizhi painting.
Co on, let’s have a drink now,” Ye Haochuan said with a smile, raising a glass of drink.
Xiao Haii smiled in relief and raised her glass, “Okay, cheers.”
As they both drained their glasses, Ye Haochuan suddenly frowned.
“What’s wrong?” Xiao Haii asked, curious.
Ye Haochuan hissed for her to be quiet and after a while, a smile appeared on his face as he said, “Sister i, co on, let’s continue our al.”
…
Outside the Seafood City, in the parking lot.
A bodyguard was reporting to Xiao Ding and Yang Hao, “Young masters, I’ve just received a report from the person monitoring Ye Haochuan and Xiao Haii.
Indeed, Xiao Haii made a request to Ye Haochuan to purchase the authentic Gu Kaizhi painting, and he agreed.”
Xiao Ding sneered, “See, I told you I was right.
That bitch Xiao Haii would definitely ask Ye Haochuan to buy the painting.”
Yang Hao nodded, his expression turning ugly as he cursed, “That bitch, cheating on is bad enough, but spending money to buy a painting on top of that is truly despicable.”
Xiao Ding humphed and then asked the bodyguard, “How much are they talking about?”
“Apparently ten million,” the bodyguard replied earnestly.
“Ten million?”
Xiao Ding and Yang Hao exchanged glances, their expressions growing even uglier.
A vengeful look flashed in Xiao Ding’s eyes as he gritted his teeth and said, “Indeed, they’re a pair of adulterers.
Especially that Ye Haochuan, he quoted one billion to , but sold it to that bitch for ten million.
Now she’s gotten a huge bargain, and during the old man’s birthday banquet, she’s likely to beco even more favored.”
The atmosphere turned frosty in an instant.
Suddenly, Yang Hao excitedly said, “Brother Ding, I see an easy way to handle this.
That guy Ye Haochuan is too cunning, we can’t snatch it from him, but once he hands over the painting to that bitch, can’t we just steal it from her then?”
Xiao Ding’s eyes lit up, slapping his thigh, “Right, how did I not think of that?
Although that bitch has many bodyguards around her, if we concentrate our forces, the unaware can be easily ambushed.
It shouldn’t be too hard to snatch it, should it?”
“Exactly,” Yang Hao agreed.
Xiao Ding then asked the bodyguard, “Did you figure out when they are going to make the trade?”
“It’s tonight.”
Xiao Ding and Yang Hao looked at each other, damn, heaven is on our side!
