Chapter 488: Chapter 489: Thousand-Year-Old White Jade!

Wu Shanhe, how did he come here?

Everyone was baffled as to how Wu Shanhe had arrived.

Could he possibly be here to purchase the Tang Family ancestral home?

No, that’s not it.

People remembered Wu Shanhe’s words from earlier, which seemed to indicate he was here to celebrate the Tang Family’s housewarming?

What exactly is going on?

At that moment, they saw Wu Shanhe slowly making his way from afar, followed by four or five people carrying a jade stone fish.

It seemed as if he truly was here to offer his blessings.

The rich tycoons around were all stunned.

In Xuanjing City, Wu Shanhe was quite famous; after all, he was among the top ten in wealth, and he had amassed this fortune in just ten short years—a commercial legend indeed.

But now, he was actually coming to congratulate the Tang Family on their move, which seemed a bit far-fetched.

Fu Daqiang stood amongst the group of wealthy individuals, feeling a surge of excitement. Wu Shanhe was his idol. Ignoring the objections of those around him, he rushed forward, hoping to shake hands with Wu Shanhe—a mere handshake would satisfy him.

"Mr. Wu, my name is Fu Daqiang, I’m your fan. I’ve admired you for a long time. Could I shake your hand, please?"

But Wu Shanhe completely bypassed Fu Daqiang as if he wasn’t there.

Fu Daqiang’s outstretched hand could only hover in mid-air, yet he felt content. After all, that was Wu Shanhe, a man who had made it onto the wealth list within twenty years, and it was only natural for someone like him to disregard a person like him.

Even Jiang Nantian could not afford to disregard Wu Shanhe; he certainly had heard of the man and knew that Wu Shanhe had certain special skills that made it difficult for ordinary people to even have a chance to talk to him. However, now he was here to congratulate the Tang Family on their new home—this must be related to the Crown Prince’s Club’s business partnerships!

Jiang Weiwei was also taken aback—how did Wu Shanhe get here? Managing the Crown Prince’s Club, she certainly recognized what the name Wu Shanhe stood for, but she had never collaborated with him on anything before.

But what shocked everyone even more was that Tang Zhong was still over there, drinking, showing no intention of greeting Wu Shanhe.

"Wu Shanhe has come, and yet Tang Zhong is still leisurely drinking. It looks like he intends to thoroughly offend Wu Shanhe!"

"Haha, foolish. If it were me, I would welcome Wu Shanhe’s congratulations from miles away with proper ceremony!"

"So would I!"

Jiang Nantian burst out laughing, "This Tang Zhong is truly too arrogant!"

However, the anticipated scene of Wu Shanhe storming off in a rage did not occur.

At this moment, Wu Shanhe was already stepping forward with the jade fish.

"Place the fish down there!"

Wu Shanhe stepped forward and said to Tang Zhong respectfully, "Mr. Tang, I’ve come to celebrate your housewarming. This carp passing through the dragon’s gate was carved from a millennium-old white jade I brought back from Zhuanshi Country by a Master. I hope you will graciously accept it!"

With these words.

The entire place was in shock.

Millennium-old white jade...

To graciously accept it!

It almost sounded like Wu Shanhe was afraid that the other party would refuse it!

"I remember Wu Shanhe once auctioned off a piece of jade valued at fifty million at an auction house; it was a piece of white jade!"

"White jade... Could it be this one?"

"Impossible, once a mayor asked for this piece of jade from Wu Shanhe and was refused. How could he possibly offer it to the Tang Family for their housewarming?"

"But... do you all think, is there still such a large piece of white jade out there?"

In an instant, everyone’s heart was thrown into chaos, and then they looked at Tang Zhong in the distance who, as if nothing was amiss, was still drinking. They no longer knew what to say!

Fu Daqiang was already trembling all over. He paid attention to everything about Wu Shanhe and, of course, knew about that piece of white jade, but now, that white jade was actually in someone else’s hands, and it was in the hands of the person he had just scorned. Had he been wrong?

Jiang Nantian’s face also started to look ugly.

"Family Head, that jade..." a high-ranking member of the Jiang Family said.

"Don’t talk!" Jiang Nantian’s pupils had already contracted together.

No one spoke anymore; instead, they all stared ahead.

Jiang Weiwei was also shocked. Being the closest to Wu Shanhe, she could see the expression on his face; clearly, Wu Shanhe was sincere, which meant that he had truly come to give a gift. Then, looking at Tang Zhong beside him and remembering what Tang Brother had said, she couldn’t help but smile. That’s right, Tang Brother said there was nothing to worry about, so how could there possibly be anything wrong?

And at that moment, Tang Zhong took a small sip from his cup, didn’t even look at Wu Shanhe, but gestured with his hand that it was enough.

This scene once again caused ripples among those present.

"Wu Shanhe has brought out his thousand-year-old white jade, and this guy just disregards him like that?"

"If I were Wu Shanhe, I would just take my jade and leave right now!"

"Tang Zhong is underestimating Wu Shanhe. Although I don’t know why Wu Shanhe would come to congratulate the Tang Family, Wu Shanhe himself is not known for being good-natured. Someone showed off in front of Wu Shanhe once and was in a sorry state the next day... There are rumors that Wu Shanhe has dark forces!"

Jiang Nantian’s mouth curled up in disdain, "Suicidal!"

If it were him, he would also not dare to disrespect Wu Shanhe like this.

Just when everyone thought Wu Shanhe would explode, they saw Wu Shanhe acting like a junior before a senior, respectfully saying, "Yes, Mr. Tang!"

At this moment, everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief, as Wu Shanhe did not explode.

That was impossible... how could this be possible?

None of those present believed it was real.

Wu Shanhe was someone who would fight back if insulted, so how come now, he was completely silent?

What others didn’t know was that Wu Shanhe was genuinely afraid at this moment.

Ever since he found out that Tang Zhong was a Martial Arts Grandmaster, he had been fearful. He knew he had once provoked Tang Zhong; you cannot affront a Grandmaster. Although Tang Zhong had spared him that day, it didn’t mean Tang Zhong really let him off the hook. These days, Wu Shanhe had been preparing the gift meticulously, all for today. When he brought the fish over, his heart was trembling, fearing that Tang Zhong wouldn’t accept it, but now, seeing Tang Zhong gesture with his hand, his anxiety lifted because it signified that Tang Zhong had accepted him. It might be the best news he had heard in his life, and by the time he sat down in the guest seat, his forehead was already covered in cold sweat.

"How is this possible?" Jiang Nantian couldn’t believe it, that Wu Shanhe hadn’t exploded. It was too strange.

It also indicated that Wu Shanhe was on Tang Zhong’s side.

"Family Head, there seems to be more behind Tang Zhong than just the Crown Prince’s Club," said a high-level member of the Jiang Family, someone who mingled in the business world.

"So what if there is? It’s just a Wu Shanhe after all. He, Tang Zhong, is still far from defeating our Tang Family!" Jiang Nantian said, "Besides, being known in the business world doesn’t mean anything. Having money doesn’t represent anything!"

"Right!"

"Tang Zhong wants to fight with me; I shall claim this Tang Family ancestral home today!" Jiang Nantian said, and then looking at Tang Zhong in the distance, he felt a somewhat painful feeling in his heart: "Tang Zhong, oh Tang Zhong, I really underestimated you this time. Unfortunately, even so, what does it matter?"

The others were also shocked by this turn of events but nobody knew the reason why Wu Shanhe acted the way he did today.

Meanwhile, Tang Zhong kept drinking at a leisurely pace, and now only a third of a bottle of white liquor was gone.

At this moment, an announcer’s voice came from a distance.

Before the voice was completely audible, it had already attracted everyone’s attention.

Then they heard from afar: "The Wei Family, Wei Luyuan has come to congratulate the Tang Family on their housewarming!"
