Chen Dongcheng saw Xu Shihao and quickly said to him, "Shihao, the operations manager just told that the Angel's Heart has been purchased? The sixty million paynt has also been received. Which esteed gentleman bought it? I have to hurry over to entertain him! We must not neglect such a distinguished guest!"
Chen Dongcheng is the host of this exhibition. Any large transaction, the operations manager is sure to inform him imdiately.
Just now, the operations manager sent a ssage that the Angel's Heart had been bought, paid on site, and the funds have been received.
That's why Chen Dongcheng hurried over.
After all, the Angel's Heart is the treasure of this exhibition. The guest who bought it must be either rich or noble, and he had to co over properly to entertain him.
As soon as Chen Dongcheng finished speaking, a peculiar expression appeared on the faces of the people present.
Because no one expected that the paynt was actually successful!
So it seems Jiang Chuan really is a super-rich; sixty million to buy a necklace!
The surrounding sounds of admiration arose again, while the Qiu Family looked at each other, their faces turning incredibly unpleasant.
As for Xu Shihao, his face flushed red, and he had nothing to say.
Chen Dongcheng felt strange, so he asked again, "Shihao, what's wrong? Speak up, where is the gentleman who bought the Angel's Heart?"
Xu Shihao was hesitant to speak; he wanted to, but it was really hitting his heart.
A country bumpkin could actually afford a sixty million necklace!
This is sixty million we're talking about. Although he could barely co up with this much money, spending sixty million to buy a necklace to give away was beyond his courage!
At this mont, right behind Chen Dongcheng, Jiang Chuan spoke softly.
"Dongcheng, I bought the Angel's Heart."
Hearing the voice, Chen Dongcheng turned around in haste, and upon seeing Jiang Chuan, a smile imdiately spread across his face.
"Mr. Jiang, it's you. Please forgive for my earlier impatience, I didn't notice it was you."
"So the Angel's Heart was bought by Mr. Jiang. That makes sense. Who else but Mr. Jiang would have such courage?"
If it was already shocking enough that Jiang Chuan purchased the Angel's Heart, then Chen Dongcheng's attitude towards Jiang Chuan was unbelievably respectful!
"Uncle, you know him?"
Xu Shihao was puzzled and stepped forward to ask Chen Dongcheng.
"Nonsense! How could I not know Mr. Jiang? I've told you before, when my tens of millions were robbed by bandits and my life was also at stake, it was Mr. Jiang who saved my life and even lent several millions in capital, which allowed to make a coback."
"So Mr. Jiang is not just my benefactor but also my lifesaver. How could I not know Mr. Jiang?"
These words left Xu Shihao utterly stunned. He hadn't heard this story of his uncle's just once. For years, his uncle kept that lifesaver in his heart, always saying he must repay the favor if given the chance.
Only, Xu Shihao never would have imagined that his uncle's lifesaver turned out to be the Qiu Family's rural son-in-law, Jiang Chuan!
This was sothing Xu Shihao couldn't accept at all. In his mind, the person who helped his uncle should have been a mber of a wealthy family, a true big shot, not so rural bumpkin!
So, Xu Shihao couldn't accept it.
He imdiately blurted out, "Uncle, are you mistaken? He's not the big figure you ntioned, is he? He's actually the son-in-law of the Su Family, just a country bumpkin farming!"
"Shihao, what nonsense are you saying?"
Hearing Xu Shihao's words, Chen Dongcheng's face imdiately darkened.
He glared at Xu Shihao, full of anger, and said, "Kneel, kneel and apologize to Mr. Jiang! How could you say such extrely rude things to Mr. Jiang! Kneel and apologize to Mr. Jiang!"
In Chen Dongcheng's heart, Jiang Chuan is his lifesaver, a god-like existence.
Even he wouldn't dare to offend Jiang Chuan.
Not even the slightest bit of disrespect would be allowed!
So, when Xu Shihao said such rude words, Chen Dongcheng was furious at that mont.
But Xu Shihao simply didn't want to kneel! Making him kneel to a rural bumpkin? He wouldn't do it even if it killed him! Especially not in front of the woman he loved most!
So, Xu Shihao refused to kneel, and he knew that his uncle usually indulged him, and even if he didn't kneel, his uncle would at most just scold him, which was better than kneeling, right?
If he knelt, where would his face go?
Would he still be able to make a na for himself in the future?
How could he continue to pursue Qiu Qianyu?
Therefore, Xu Shihao was absolutely not going to kneel.
