he Guan family""He's my grandson. You couldn't possibly know him, could you Even if you did, with what you did at the official's residence today, I wouldn't let you go." Guan Zhengshan looked serious,...Chapter 5

Before he could even explode, Qin Xi had already snatched their daughter from Qin Mu's hands, her face full of tears: "Mom, how many times have I told you She's still so young, don't scare her! Why do you keep doing this If there's another time, I'll move out with Xiaoxiao."

Qin Mu felt guilty and quickly said, "I was just scaring you, I didn't really mean to lock her up. I just want you to divorce this useless man as soon as possible, and everything will be fine."

Qin Xi ignored Qin Mu and looked at Wang Jian, her face full of sarcasm: "Young Master Wang, your family business is big, I'm not worthy of you. Besides, I'm already married. Even if I wasn't, I wouldn't be with you. Moreover... he's already back, please don't bother our lives again, thank you!"

At this moment, Wang Jian's face was very ugly, but seeing Qin Xinci's beautiful appearance, he swallowed his anger and secretly thought to himself, "Wait until I get you, and then let you taste my power."

"Xiaoxi, how can you speak like that Xiao Wang has helped us so much for you. Don't you know"

Qin Mu's face was filled with anger. After scolding Qin Xi, she turned to Wang Jian and said, "Xiao Wang, don't listen to her. In this family, you still have to listen to me."

Wang Jian smiled slightly: "Mother, please rest assured, I will definitely win Xiao Xi's heart with sincerity."

Yang Chen's expression gradually turned cold, he actually dared to express his intention of pursuing his woman in front of him.

"Indeed, he is the heir apparent of the Wang family. Look at his demeanor, it's far beyond what some people can compare to."

“Our little Xi is so beautiful, only a young talent like Wang Shao would be the most suitable partner for her.”

"Wang Shao, when you and Xiaoxi get married, I'll definitely give you a big gift."

A throng of relatives, chattering incessantly, showered Wang Jian with flattery without reservation. Their words, spoken and unspoken, betrayed their disdain for Yang Chen.

Qin Xi was also so angry that her whole body trembled, but everyone present were elders after all. She subtly glanced at Yang Chen from the corner of her eye. Seeing that Yang Chen remained expressionless and silent, neither refuting nor showing anger, she felt even more disappointed in him.

If Yang Chen knew Qin Xi's thoughts, he would definitely be so upset that he would spit blood. The reason he kept silent was that he didn't want to embarrass Qin Xi.

At this time, the nanny continuously served the dishes onto the table. Everyone was invited to the table by Qin's mother, except Yang Chen.

Yang Chen didn't know whether to leave or stay.

"Daddy, I want you to hold me while I eat."

Qin Xiaoxiao's spirited voice suddenly rang out, her bright and sparkling eyes flashing. Her rosy little arms waved excitedly towards her father.

The moment his daughter's voice rang out, all anger vanished, especially when he heard the two words "Daddy," his heart melted.

Only Mother Qin wouldn't let it go, and she rebuked the little girl: "Shut up! He's not your father, your father is already dead."

Qin Xiaoxiao pouted her lips and was about to cry again.

"Mom!"

Qin Xi's voice was filled with impatience. She picked her daughter up from her seat and said coldly, "Stay here!"

This sentence was obviously addressed to Yang Chen. Yang Chen gave her a grateful glance and hurriedly sat down.

"I want a hug from Daddy!"

Sitting in her father's arms, the little girl was overjoyed. She curiously scratched her father's ear and touched his face, giggling happily. She was very pleased.

Seeing this scene, a trace of tenderness flashed in Qin Xi's eyes.

A group of people gathered around the dining table, before they even touched their chopsticks, Wang Jian took out a very delicately packaged pink gift box and handed it to Qin Xiaoxiao: "This is Uncle Wang's birthday present for you. Happy birthday, Xiaoxiao!"

It turned out that today was his daughter's birthday. Thinking that he had already missed four years of his daughter's growth, Yang Chen felt a surge of guilt in his heart.

Qin Xiaoxiao shyly glanced at Wang Jian. After all, she was only four years old. She was very happy to receive a gift and kept her eyes on the small pink cartoon paper box.

Qin Xiaoxiao took the gift: "Thank you, Uncle Wang!"

Wang Jian wore a bright smile: "Open it and see, do you like it"

The little girl was already curious about the pink box. Hearing Wang Jian's words, she couldn't wait to open the small gift box.

After opening the outer packaging, there was another delicate small box inside. When it was opened, a dazzling bracelet with a sparkling light came into view.

"What a beautiful bracelet!"

Little Aunt Qin Yi exclaimed in surprise, her face full of envy.

“After learning about XiaoXiao's birthday, I specially asked my friend in a foreign country to buy a batch of rough diamonds from a large diamond mine. Then, I hired an internationally renowned jewelry master to customize a diamond bracelet for XiaoXiao. There is only one such bracelet in the world.”

Wang Jian looked proud, his words brimming with the preciousness of this bracelet and his importance placed on Qin Xiaoxiao's birthday.

"It's a diamond bracelet, designed by an internationally renowned jewelry master, and it's custom-made. It must be worth over 100,000 at least"

Qin Yi's eyes were full of little stars, she wanted to claim this bracelet for herself.

Wang Jian smiled proudly, leaned back, and said comfortably: "The diamond itself isn't very expensive. The main cost was hiring that jewelry master, which cost a lot, but it wasn't too much, all in all, just about 600,000!"

"600,000!"

Hearing the quote, all the relatives couldn't help but gasp.

"As expected of the Wang family's young master, he is generous with his actions."

"The most important thing is to be good to Xiaoxiao. Once Wang Shao becomes Xiaoxiao's father, Xiaoxiao's childhood will definitely be much happier."

"Yeah, XiaoXiao is truly blessed. She has a prominent figure like Wang Shao as her father right away."

Relatives didn't care about Yang Chen's presence at all. Wang Jian, hearing this, smiled even wider and couldn't help but glance at Yang Chen provocatively.

Qin Xici's face was ashen. While she was extremely disappointed in Yang Chen, she had never agreed to marry Wang Jian.

"Today is Xiaoxiao's birthday, you wouldn't even have a present prepared, would you"

At that moment, Qin Yi suddenly asked teasingly, and for a moment, all eyes turned to Yang Chen.

"Of course!" Yang Chen said.

Hearing her father's words, Xiaoxiao's face was full of anticipation. To her, no gift could compare to a gift from her father.

Qin Mu frowned. Yang Chen had come empty-handed after all. If he had really prepared a gift, where could he have possibly hidden it

Other people share the same idea.

Under the gaze of everyone, Yang Chen casually took off a pendant from his neck.

"Pfft!"

Qin Yi couldn't help but laugh out loud, her face full of exaggeration as she said, "Yang Chen, is this the birthday present you prepared for your own daughter A stone full of cracks Didn't you just pick it up on the roadside"

Yang Chen shook his head and honestly replied, "I picked it up on the Gobi Desert."

His words immediately caused a burst of laughter.

Qin Xi, who had just been holding some expectations for Yang Chen, suddenly froze. This was his first time celebrating his daughter's birthday with her, and he only brought a picked-up stone as a gift What's worse, with all the relatives present, this felt like a slap in the face.

No one knew that this very stone, picked up from the Gobi Desert, had helped Yang Chen fend off several fatal attacks. Each crack was a memory of a past experience deeply engraved in his mind.

Only Qin Xiaoxiao, when she saw this pendant, couldn't help but like it. She raised her delicate little head and giggled: "Daddy's gift, I love it so much, Daddy, please help Xiaoxiao put it on."

Yang Chen had a gentle smile on his face as he carefully put the pendant on his daughter.

Even though this jade-like stone is covered in cracks, it looks stunning on Qin Xiaoxiao's neck. It seems like it was made just for her.

Because it was given by Yang Chen, no one would admit that this little stone is very valuable.

"What's so strange about a picked-up stone"

Qin Mu's face turned unpleasant, and she immediately looked at Qin Xi and said, "Quickly put the bracelet Wang Shao gave you on Xiao Xiao, so that some people will know the difference between heaven and earth."

While elevating Wang Jian, he still didn't forget to step on Yang Chen.

Just then, Yang Chen suddenly picked up the diamond-studded bracelet and, without even glancing at it, threw it into the trash can.

His actions made everyone's eyes widen in shock. He actually threw away a diamond bracelet worth six hundred thousand!

"What are you doing" Qin's mother was furious.

Yang Chen frowned slightly: "This bracelet, worn for a long time, is not good for the body."

"You farted!"

Wang Jian, who had always been gentle and polite, was immediately enraged to see Yang Chen throwing the bracelet in public. "I spent so much effort making this bracelet, it's not something you, a waste of space, can insult!"

Yang Chen coldly looked at Wang Jian and asked, "You said that this bracelet inlaid with red diamonds cost 600,000"

Wang Jian roared, "What problem do you think there is"

"If you really spent 600,000, I can only say, you are a fool with a lot of money!"

Yang Chen sneered and didn't give Wang Jian a chance to retort. He continued, "Red diamonds are the rarest kind of diamond, so rare that there is no fixed price for them. They are almost invisible in the diamond market, appearing only at some high-profile auctions."

In 1987, a 95-carat red diamond sold at Sotheby's auction for $880,000, equivalent to $920,000 per carat. In Japanese yen, it was worth over 60 million.

"And this bracelet of yours, at least 1.5 carats of diamonds, right Tell me, how did you manage to buy a red diamond bracelet for 600,000"

“This is not a natural red diamond at all, but a common diamond that has been color-altered through irradiation. This kind of diamond has a very strong radioactivity, and wearing it for a long time can cause great harm to the body. You actually gave this radiation-seriously overloaded bracelet to a four-year-old girl. What is your intention”

Yang Chen's eyes were sharp and piercing, as he launched a series of soul-searching questions, leaving Wang Jian speechless. The entire room fell silent, all eyes turned to Wang Jian. Qin Xi's gaze also grew extremely dark.ments and give you another villa in the mountains as compensation.Wei Xiang gritted his teeth and said, "Even the most ordinary villa under Jiu Cheng Mountain would cost tens of millions."Yang Chen's...
