Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1162
Yuki was a little surprised. She wondered why these people weren't looking for Somoset but Ernest instead.
However, she still replied with a smile, "Uncle Ernest is at home. Uncle Somoset and grandpa are all here too. If you'd like to see them, I can go and report to them."
Boss Xu, who was the leader, smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's okay. We are here to look for Ernest today. We want to ask him for a favor about something!" "Why are you guys looking for Uncle Ernest?" Yuki asked puzzledly.
Boss Xu answered, "Well, we were in Pentagon Street just now and saw Ernest's daughter, Momo. She was with a young man."
Hearing this, Yuki couldn't help but frown. Obviously, the young man was Fade.
Boss Xu didn't notice Yuki's expression and continued, "At that time, the young man bought an Einstein Zhang's calligraphy painting for 25 million yuan." Speaking of calligraphy painting, Yuki couldn't help but interject, "Isn't that calligraphy painting a
counterfeit?"
Hearing this, Boss Xu stared at her and questioned, "Who said that it's a counterfeit?"
Boss Huang asked, "Since you know the calligraphy painting, is that young man really in the Soo Manor? Tell us, where is he?"
"That's right. Take us to him!" Everyone urged.
"The person you guys are looking for is Fade?" Yuki was a little dumbfounded. She didn't expect these big bosses to come here to look for Fade.
Boss Xu nodded and answered, "Of course, we are here to look for Fade. We only wanted to ask him whether he would sell the calligraphy painting he just bought to us. We would like to keep it as a collection too."
When it came to calligraphy painting, these big bosses were excited.
"Who wouldn't want to collect such a genuine piece of artwork! I am willing to pay 200 million yuan for it!"
"200 million yuan? Winson, aren't you too stingy? The starting price of that painting is at least 300 million yuan, okay?"
"Don't talk about the starting price, I am willing to pay 400 million yuan." "Hey, I'm willing to pay up to 800 million yuan for that painting!" "Old Hu, you are too lavish. I can't afford this price!" When Yuki heard these words, she was a little dumbfounded.
"It turns out that the calligraphy painting is genuine. Not only that, it is worth hundreds of millions of yuan. This... this is simply..." She was stunned at the thought of what happened just now and looked absolutely astonished.
Upon seeing this, the excited bosses asked aloud, "Hey, don't just stand still here. Take us to that young man!"
Yuki's expression was extremely ghastly. She stammered, "H-he is no longer in the Soo Manor."
"What? He's not in the Soo Manor? Where is he then?" The big bosses exclaimed.
Yuki's expression became even more ashen. She revealed, "He... he just left. He was still at the gate just now, I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Boss Xu and the rest rushed out of the Soo Manor in a gush. They dashed towards the gate and began to look for Fade.
"Hey you, why didn't you tell us earlier! You just wasted our time!"
"That's right! If that young man leaves, you will have caused us to lose a great opportunity."
"You actually made us lose the calligraphy painting that is worth hundreds of millions of yuan. This is simply..."
Listening to the complaints of these big shots, Yuki felt her whole body shake in disbelief. She couldn't believe that what was happening now was real.
She had no idea that Fade, who she still despised just now, became a target sought after by many big shots. Besides, it was now very likely for him to earn hundreds of millions of yuan in a short time. Putting aside indirect descendants of the Soo family like Yuki, even direct descendants rarely could spend such a large sum of money and earn such a large asset at one go.
However, after thinking about this, Yuki still tried to comfort herself, "Perhaps he has already left and won't get those hundreds of millions of yuan. Moreover, even if he manages to earn it, t-t-that... That's nothing. Compared to Master Yao, he is nowhere close to him." "Yes, that's it. He is not even close to Master Yao!
It's not worth even mentioning, it's not..." Yuki muttered silently and left as she was trying to hypnotize herself.
At this moment, on the roadside outside the Soo Manor, the big shots found Fade. They clarified their intentions and wanted to bid for the calligraphy painting.
Originally, Fade wanted to give that calligraphy painting as a gift. However, now that he was rejected, he had no interest in that painting as well. Hence, he straight away sold the calligraphy painting to Boss Andrew Xu, the real estate tycoon in South Bay City.
The remaining bosses could only leave with regret. However, the news of this spread quickly after by word of mouth.
Soon, almost all the people in the upper class of South Bay City knew that Boss Xu had spent 600 million yuan to purchase a calligraphy painting of Einstein Zheng from a young man.
After Boss Xu purchased the calligraphy painting, he learned that Fade was looking for a place to stay at. Hence, he found a luxurious villa among his properties that was under his company's name and gave it to Fade for free.
With that said, he took Fade to the villa to check in.
At this moment, in the Soo Manor, Ernest, Somoset and the rest had just learned about the purchase of the ancient calligraphy painting from the social media of the upper class society in South Bay City. For a while, everyone was speechless and didn't know what to say.
Finally, Somoset let out a cold snort. He turned around and left with a displeased expression. He also blocked the discussion of the topic in his social media.
Meanwhile, Memo walked into Egbert's study room and asked, "Grandpa, did you want to see me?"
Egbert smiled. He pointed to the seat in front of him and said, "Momo, have a seat!"
Seeing as Momo sat down, Egbert sighed. He looked at Momo and asked, "Momo, do you know what am I going to talk to you about since I called you here?" Speaking of this, Momo's heart skipped a beat. Then, she asked, "Grandpa, did you want to talk to me about the arranged marriage?"
Egbert nodded and replied, "Absolutely. How are you getting along with Hector?"
Speaking of Hector, Momo's expression fell in an instant. She took a deep breath and braced herself before telling Egbert, "Grandpa, you know that I don't like Hector and I don't want to marry him." Upon hearing this, Egbert looked slightly displeased. He looked at Momo and advised her earnestly, "Momo, you didn't get along much with Hector, but you young people would develop feelings if you guys get along with each other more often. After all, Hector is an excellent boy. You will enjoy being with him."
"I..." Momo felt very uncomfortable and almost burst into tears when she heard this. After all, when she was in the hall just now, she thought that Egbert was supporting her. It was only after she came over that she realized her grandfather was not in support of her relationship and decision.
