Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1154

They couldn't verify the painting, and Memo obviously couldn't fork out two hundred million yuan on the spot.

So, after a short while, she lost hope and shook her head, sighing, "Fade, let's go."

Suddenly, Fade grabbed her and said, "Wait, let me take a look."

"Fade, do you know something about antique paintings?" Momo was curious.

Fade shook his head, "Of course not."

"Then, what are you..." Momo was speechless.

Fade then patted Momo on the head and smiled, "Trust me. I may not know a thing about paintings, but I can tell a fake and genuine painting apart."

After saying that, Momo looked at Fade in awe. He bowed down and said to Oberon, "Can I touch the painting?"

Oberon looked at Fade and hesitated, "Sure, but be careful, or else I..."

"Don't worry, sir, I won't ruin the painting," Fade smiled and placed his finger on the painting and gently touched it.

Fade then withdrew his hand and nodded at

Momo before telling her, "This is genuine. Let's get it."

"Fade, how did you..." Momo was confused. She didn't know how he did that.

Everyone else was totally bewildered.

"Young man, how do you know the painting is genuine?"

"You can tell just by touching it? Oh come on!"

"Dude, tell us how you did it."

Fade remained silent despite being bombarded by questions.

He didn't explain to them and simply said, "Oh it's nothing. I just think that the painting is genuine."

After that, he had already taken out his card and began negotiating with Oberon.

Everyone else heard that and were riled up. Some of the people that had the intention of buying it earlier started to get anxious.

"Sir, I want to buy it too. Wait."

"Count me in, I want to place a bid too."

Some of them got excited and rushed up to bid.

However, there were still some calm minds among the crowd. They said something out loud.

"Everyone, don't be too impulsive. This old gentleman and this dude look so unfamiliar! It seems too much of a coincidence that they appeared on Pentagon Street in South Bay City out of nowhere!" "It is indeed too much of a coincidence. Also, the way this dude judges the calligraphy painting is really unique!"

Hearing this, everyone snapped back to their senses and put on a straight face.

Indeed, Fade's appearance was too sudden, and his way of judgment seemed too unimaginable. The whole thing looked like a scam, and the purpose was to induce people like them to bid and spend money on this painting.

With that thought in mind, the few people who were excited to bid just now shrank back and looked hesitant.

Fade didn't mind explaining anything to them. He looked at Oberon and said, "Sir, don't bother about them. I want to buy your painting, so please name your price."

Oberon looked a little worried too when he looked at the onlookers who had a skeptical look on their faces. Therefore, he didn't continue to drag on and said to Fade, "20 million yuan it is. Pay me 20 million yuan and I will sell it to you right away." "Well, sir, 20 million yuan should be the starting price. I won't take advantage of you, so I'll pay you 25 million yuan," After that, Fade took out his credit card directly and swiped it on the spot.

Oberon didn't expect Fade to give him an extra five million yuan. He immediately bloomed into a smile. He settled the formalities with Fade quickly, collected the money, and handed Fade the calligraphy painting.

Fade put away the calligraphy painting and said to Momo, "That's done, I've bought a gift for your Grandpa. I think this antique calligraphy painting should be able to please him."

Momo still felt like everything was a little unbelievable at this moment. She nodded and responded, "Grandpa likes Einstein's paintings very much. If it's genuine, he will definitely like it." "That's fine, I promise this calligraphy painting is genuine," Fade smiled confidently. He was about to leave with her.

Just then, Momo hesitated, saying, "Fade, but....."

"What's wrong? Do you still want to buy anything else?" Fade asked.

Momo shook her head and answered, "Fade, it's not about that. It's just that this painting is too valuable to be a gift. Besides, it costs so much, it's..."

Momo's initial plan was to buy some gifts with her own money. Her budget was between a few hundred thousand yuan to a few million yuan.

She could afford this price herself. It was also appropriate for the Soo family to give it as a gift on such an occasion.

But now, Fade had spent 25 million yuan just to purchase Einstein's calligraphy painting, which was way too expensive. This made Momo feel that this was a little inappropriate. After all, she was the one who asked Fade to pretend to be her boyfriend. It didn't feel right to make him spend so much on her.

Looking at Momo's hesitant appearance, Fade understood her thoughts instantly. He patted her head and smiled, saying, "Have you forgotten my current status? It's only over 20 million yuan. This small sum of money is just a drop in the bucket for me, so you don't have to care about it."

Upon hearing this, Momo thought of Fade's net worth. After he became the famous Master Chen in Jade City and controlled 51 % of the share in the Li family, his net worth had long exceeded tens of billions yuan.

25 million yuan was really just a drop in the bucket for him.

Thinking of this, Momo was relieved. She nodded and thanked him with a cheery smile, "Thank you so much for your gift this time. I will buy you a gift next time."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your present!" Fade laughed. They were ready to leave.

After the people around listened to their conversation, they couldn't help sighing and erupted into another discussion.

"More than 20 million yuan is just a drop in the bucket for them? They're too wealthy!"

"This dude looks so unfamiliar. He's not a local here in South Bay City, isn't he?"

"Probably not. Who else can spend more than 20 million yuan easily in South Bay City? I can count off Zarriah Soo, Hector Yao, and maybe a few more. Everyone knows them." "Tsk tsk, it's so nice to be wealthy!"

Fade and Momo walked away from the sighs and discussions.

However, after taking a few steps away, a man who looked around 27 to 28 years old stood in front of Fade and Momo, blocking their way.

This man was wearing a retro sky blue robe, looking handsome with his bright and clear eyes.

He walked over with a smile with his hands on his back, revealing a well demeanour. The gazes of the people around them, especially the women, couldn't help but be focused on his figure.
