Chapter 534: Chapter 534: Golden Son-in-law
"..." Zhang Tianxiang had just raised his hands when he realized that Tang Qing had no such intention.
His hands remained awkwardly suspended mid-air, and the smile on his face froze, visibly fading away.
Especially upon feeling the gazes of several people, his cheeks burned with embarrassment.
This damn woman! Is she deliberately toying with me?
Zhang Tianxiang was furious but couldn’t lash out, as he had always maintained the image of a modest and polite gentleman to the outside world.
It didn’t matter what others thought; at least in his own eyes, he truly was a courteous and humble gentleman.
Clenching his fist, he silently lowered his hands, trying not to draw attention. Zhang Tianxiang was curious to see what kind of trick Tang Qing was trying to pull off in front of him.
He then saw Tang Qing pick up two paper bags from the side of the sofa.
Seeing her series of actions, Tang Guoqing wore a puzzled look, thinking weren’t those the gifts Chen brought, labeled with incomprehensible English art terms? Why would she suddenly bring those out?
But then he noticed the dramatic change in Zhang Tianxiang’s expression at the sight of the two paper bags.
It seemed to be a shock! Completely unexpected.
This only made Tang Guoqing more curious about what exactly was inside those two paper bags.
"Qing, what are you trying to do?" Xu Donglin couldn’t make sense of Tang Qing’s actions.
Was she trying to appease Zhang Tianxiang with two insignificant items, just so he wouldn’t leave empty-handed?
Thinking this, Xu Donglin sighed inwardly, pondering that he never found the Tang family people to be so strange. What was going on today? They couldn’t possibly be possessed!
As Xu Donglin’s imagination ran wild, Tang Qing had already placed the two paper bags on the glass coffee table in front of Zhang Tianxiang, formally introducing, "These are gifts he bought for my parents."
She believed that since Zhang Tianxiang prided himself as a successful person, he should be able to recognize the value of these two items.
If he really had that discernment, he should immediately, right away, hurriedly get out of this house!
Tang Qing had completely lost patience with these two men, Zhang Tianxiang and Xu Donglin.
Originally, she did not want to reveal the value of these two items to her parents ahead of time.
"Ha, I guess these two things are probably the cheapest of the lot, right? They can’t be worth more than thirty thousand at most," Zhang Tianxiang stubbornly said.
He had bought items from these two brands before and knew that even luxury goods had their cheap and expensive variants.
What!
The incomprehensible paper bags contained items worth thirty thousand?!
Upon hearing Zhang Tianxiang’s words, the person most surprised was undoubtedly Tang Guoqing.
If he had known they were so expensive, he would have placed them carefully on the shelf instead of casually next to the sofa.
He was filled with regret.
"..." Hearing this, Tang Qing shook her head slightly, sighed softly, then turned her head to look at Chen Wei, "May I open them?"
"Of course, after all, these are gifts for uncle and auntie," Chen Wei said nonchalantly.
Knowing that Tang Qing was trying to clear things up for him, he had even less reason to stop her.
"Hmm," Tang Qing responded, then opened the paper bags, taking out a bottle of wine and a beautiful jewelry box.
Opening the jewelry box, the watch inside was glittering and extremely flashy, its exquisite craftsmanship made people marvel at its otherworldly beauty.
How is this possible!
Zhang Tianxiang’s heart lurched, his body stiffened considerably, and he was so astounded he could not speak.
Seeing him silent, Xu Donglin misinterpreted the situation, thinking it was her chance to shine.
With a tone sharp and biting, she said, "Where did you buy this, a street stall? Just because it has a few foreign letters doesn’t mean it’s high-end. I can tell at a glance it’s a fake. Tianxiang is too embarrassed to point it out, and yet you dare to fool people with a street stall fake."
Her idea was very simple and pure; if she performed well now, maybe after the success of the affair, Zhang Tianxiang would give her a bigger reward.
Xu Donglin was still hoping that she’d strike it rich after not doing business for three years.
After all, it’s easier to earn money from these successful people.
"Shut up!" Zhang Tianxiang clenched his fingers tightly around his thigh, his suit pants bunching as he yelled.
Xu Donglin was frightened by his sudden ferocious demeanor, and she stepped back two or three steps with a thump.
She couldn’t understand why he would suddenly turn his face against her when she was clearly on Zhang Tianxiang’s side, helping him speak.
Xu Donglin couldn’t remember what she had done wrong; every word, every letter was in favor of Zhang Tianxiang.
"Tianxiang, why are you being fierce to me? I’m trying to help you, you know," Xu Donglin said with a pitiful tone.
"If you really want to help me, just shut your foul mouth!" Zhang Tianxiang’s eyes were fierce, as if a continuation of Xu Donglin’s nonsensical babble would immediately, without hesitation, provoke him to pounce on her and tear her mouth apart!
"Foul mouth? How can you say that to me!" Xu Donglin couldn’t believe that Zhang Tianxiang could be such an ingrate and scoundrel.
"Shut your mouth! Do you know the value of these two items? Dare to say they’re street stall goods, fakes? Truly, you are blind as a dog!" Zhang Tianxiang said with his brows furrowed and eyes brimming with rage.
How could he possibly not recognize these two items? They were the goods from shops he used to frequent with only longing eyes, because with his current financial resources, he simply could not afford them.
Zhang Tianxiang never imagined that Chen Wei could bring out such items that even he couldn’t afford to gift to someone.
"How much could they possibly be worth? I think they look utterly worthless," Xu Donglin said resentfully.
"Just this bottle of wine costs three hundred and eighty thousand!" Zhang Tianxiang had an unforgettable impression of this price, and he had been planning to buy such a bottle of wine for a celebration party when his company went public.
And Chen Wei, just as Qing’s boyfriend, brought out such high-quality wine for Tang Guoqing.
Honestly, even with his million-dollar fortune, Zhang Tianxiang had to admit that at that moment, poverty limited his imagination.
He couldn’t fathom the sheer magnitude of capital behind Chen Wei, to present such a gift to a future father-in-law who wasn’t even certain to become part of the family.
"What! Three hundred and eighty thousand!" The number didn’t just startle Xu Donglin.
Tang Guoqing also nearly dropped his jaw in shock, unable to close his mouth for a long while.
The astonishment of Jiang Hui was reflected almost entirely in her eyes.
She often heard people say that they hoped their daughters would marry a wealthy husband so that they wouldn’t have to worry about money in the future.
Jiang Hui wondered, wasn’t Chen Wei precisely the type of "golden son-in-law" people talked about?
What others couldn’t achieve even by dreaming and praying to the Buddha, her own daughter had managed to accomplish.
Isn’t this a case of the proverbial "planting flowers with intention and they don’t bloom, planting willows without intention and they create shade"?
"Just a bottle of wine, could it really be worth that much? Three hundred and eighty thousand, isn’t that a bit exaggerated?" Xu Donglin still held on to a slim hope.
