Chapter 47: Chapter 47: What a Fool

Just as Zhuang Yan said, he really wanted to taste what kind of flavor the tea eggs cooked with Imperial Qian Longjing Tea would have.

Zhuang Yan dared to say with certainty that nowadays, throughout all of Huaxia, no one would be so extravagant.

No matter who it is, upon obtaining such a top-grade Imperial Qian Longjing, they would treat each piece as a treasure and savor it slowly, after all, nobody knows when they might get this treasure again, seeing how it’s becoming rarer and rarer.

However, this statement left Father Lin speechless. He stood up somewhat helplessly and walked to his desk, reaching inside to feel out a small piece of plastic, and then brought it back to the coffee table.

"Hehe, just brought a few eggs this morning but haven’t eaten them yet. If you don’t mind, President Zhuang, please take them and try."

Initially, he didn’t think much of it, but now, knowing its value, Father Lin looked at the tea eggs again and felt they were glowing with golden light.

Seeing this, Zhuang Yan quickly reached out and grabbed the plastic bag, looked inside, and saw four tea eggs with a few green tea leaves sticking to them.

Carefully, he reached out to pick one, and sure enough, it was the best Imperial Qian Longjing:

"Four tea eggs, let’s say one hundred thousand each."

Hearing Zhuang Yan’s words, Chen Tianpeng, who was about to open his mouth to try one, immediately shut his mouth awkwardly.

A hundred thousand yuan each, no way I can afford to eat that...

...

"Hey, isn’t this Comrade Lin? How about an interview? Hehe, how does it feel to have your stash money found?"

At six in the afternoon, as Father Lin gently pushed open the door at home, his son’s loud voice in the living room reached his ears, along with the familiar sounds of pots and pans from the kitchen, finally calming his dazed state of mind throughout the whole day.

Instinctively, he reached into his pocket to touch the VIP card from Agricultural Bank, still feeling quite unreal.

"You little rascal, what on earth is going on? Are you going to give me an explanation??"

While changing his slippers, he looked at his son playing with the phone on the sofa.

At this moment, Empress Dowager Ye also poked her head out from the kitchen for a glance. Seeing it was Lao Lin returning, she didn’t say anything but gave him a glare before returning to her cooking.

Hearing this, Lin Yi chuckled but didn’t respond to his dad and continued to fiddle with his phone.

No choice, as he had finally gotten a reply from Xiao Zihan, whom he messaged in the morning. Looking at her message ’I, I’ve been doing mock papers, I’ll do well on the test tomorrow,’ Lin Yi couldn’t help but shake his head helplessly, typed and sent a reply:

"Hey sis, it’s been a whole day, look at the time I messaged you in the morning, and now it’s past six in the evening you’re only replying? No way, I’m penalizing you with sending me a selfie."

After sending that, Lin Yi just put the phone back in his pocket, thinking that given this girl’s speed, the soonest she could send it would probably be midnight.

At that moment, Lao Lin came over to Lin Yi, reached into his pocket, took out the newly issued super VIP card, and placed it on the table, looking at Lin Yi intently.

Seeing his dad’s insistence on getting clear about it, Lin Yi had no choice but to explain what he had told his mom that morning all over again.

Of course, even if his dad didn’t believe it, it didn’t matter, as long as he was convinced himself.

Eventually, after Lin Yi raised his hand in surrender, promising he absolutely wouldn’t do anything illegal, Father Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You punk, tell me, do you really have a knack for ancient artifacts?"

Hearing his dad suddenly change the subject, Lin Yi happily explained, somewhat smugly nodded:

"Well, sort of, a bit better than those so-called experts, I suppose."

Unexpectedly, Lao Lin didn’t refute but rather nodded in agreement, leaving Lin Yi a bit puzzled.

Fortunately, the following words of Father Lin clarified things:

"Well, today I took those fragments of yours to the workplace, and Elder Wang happened to check them. He said none of your written notes were wrong; in fact, for some, you provided answers he wasn’t sure of. He even mentioned something about new waves pushing the old, saying you’re better than him and such."

Uh...

So that’s how it was, no wonder Dad didn’t argue, turns out it was Elder Wang from Xuanrui Studio praising me.

But come to think of it, there’s nothing wrong with that. Lin Yi believes the system’s appraisal skills are definitely stronger than any expert, after all, if you want, the system can tell you the exact date something was produced.

After dinner, surprisingly, Empress Dowager Ye didn’t urge Lin Yi to continue studying, nor did she press for details about the day, but let him return to his room to rest early.

To prepare for tomorrow’s college entrance exam, Empress Dowager Ye had already helped him get everything ready earlier in the day.

Everything is in place now, just waiting for tomorrow’s exam.

Returning to his room, Lin Yi checked the time and saw it was only half-past seven, naturally too early to sleep, so he lay on the bed and took out his phone.

As soon as he took out his phone, Lin Yi was surprised to see several WeChat messages.

Opening them, he realized they were all from Xiao Zihan.

18:09 ’Sorry, I was doing mock papers all day and didn’t look at my phone.’

18:15 ’I, I don’t know how to send photos, I haven’t used a phone much..’

18:20 ’Are you angry? I really am not good at using it.’

18:22 ’Let me try, okay?’

18:35, a photo.

18:38 ’Did you get it?’

19:01 ’Let’s not chat, I need to do mock papers.’

The conversation ended there. Because Lin Yi’s phone was always on silent, he didn’t see the messages right away.

Looking at the phone screen with the girl wearing thick glasses, focusing seriously yet nervously, Lin Yi couldn’t help but chuckle.

Seeing the time the message was sent, clearly, the silly girl must have waited an hour for his response:

’This dork, seems she cares about how I feel.’

After clicking on the image to save it to the album, Lin Yi laughed and sent a reply ’Rest well, see you tomorrow’

Then put his phone away.

Lying on the bed, he began pondering about the upcoming chance he’d have for decomposition and reconstruction, wondering what interesting things he should use it on.
