The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor
Chapter 417 - 417 392 Swollen Face

417: Chapter 392: Swollen Face 417: Chapter 392: Swollen Face “Oh my God!

Is… is this real?

This is the first time in my life that I’ve seen such a huge diamond!

Good Lord!”

“Now I believe the rumors are true, last time someone said Liu Hun gave a woman an even bigger diamond at Stone Records, and it was blue!”

“No wonder Liu Hun is so calm and collected, carrying something like this with him!

If it were me, I’d be very confident too!

But can it really be worth a hundred million?”

“…”

“It’s too perfect!

Mr.

Liu…truly, I’m at a loss for words to describe my shock.

Please wait a moment, I’ll take it for appraisal.

If it can be valued at a hundred million, you’ll be able to unlock the additional condition for the Crystal Shoes!” The appraiser said, taking the huge diamond from Liu Hun’s hand as if it were a precious treasure, and then took it to the appraiser.

“This… Mr.

Liu really managed to bring out such a thing.

What are we going to do now, honey?” Xu Xiyu suddenly became somewhat panicked.

If it really could be worth a hundred million, then they’d be losing even if it were true.

“Hmph, what’s there to panic about!” Bai Qiang said dismissively, “Whether this diamond is real or fake remains to be seen!

Even if it’s real, is it worth a hundred million?

Would you carry something worth a hundred million in your pocket every day?

Stop dreaming!

And besides, even if it is worth that much, isn’t there still an additional condition?

Liu Hun won’t be able to get past this hurdle today.”

The people around also began to discuss fervently, all while waiting for news from the appraiser.

More than ten minutes later, the appraiser came back.

Everyone shut their mouths and quietly waited for the appraiser to speak.

“Mr.

Liu, I’m honored to tell you that you have qualified to unlock the additional condition.

This perfect diamond, after being appraised by three of Prada’s top appraisers, is valued at around a hundred million, which is enough to cover your auction price.” The auctioneer said while handing the beautifully boxed diamond back to Liu Hun, “If you can’t meet the additional condition, the diamond will be returned to its original owner, and we will not charge any fee.”

This result surprised everyone and made them even more eager, surprised because no one expected that Liu Hun could just casually pull out something worth a hundred million, and, of course, eager for this mysterious additional condition.

“Ladies and gentlemen!

Now, please welcome Prada’s global art director, Mr.

Smith, to present ‘Cinderella’s Dream’ and to tell us what the additional condition is!

Let’s give him a round of applause!” said the auctioneer, leading the applause.

Amidst the enthusiastic applause, Smith, with his flowing hair and sunken eyes, looking somewhat decadent, walked forward holding the Crystal Shoes in both hands.

He smiled at the crowd and said, “Thank you all for coming here.

On behalf of Prada, I appreciate your presence!

More importantly, thank you for your support of our creations, especially Mr.

Liu!

I sincerely thank you!

However…” Smith glanced dreamily at the Crystal Shoes in his hand and continued speaking to Liu Hun, “Whether you can own them still requires an additional condition.

That condition is…”

Every ear pricked up, their excitement reaching a crescendo, but Smith pivoted his conversation to tell a story, “As everyone knows, in the fairy tale, after the prince picked up Cinderella’s Crystal Shoes, he was so obsessed with finding their owner that he wandered everywhere looking for the girl who could wear the Crystal Shoes.

Finally, he found Cinderella.

These Crystal Shoes are the most marvelous creation of Nicola Prada, a culmination of all his wisdom, and in his last will, he set an additional condition: only the girl who can wear these Crystal Shoes smoothly can ultimately own them.

Shoes not custom-made might not fit the feet of the person who can afford them.”

After finishing, Smith took a deep breath and solemnly handed the Crystal Shoes to Liu Hun, saying, “Hopefully, this is the most wonderful encounter, the perfect union.

They have traveled through many countries, and I hope they can find their owner on this magical land of the East!”

When Smith finished, everyone’s gaze fell on Shi Qing’er’s feet, and Xu Xiyu, who had a long history of extravagant shopping, was the first to laugh.

She said to Bai Qiang, “That wretched girl has feet as big as a donkey’s face, how could she possibly fit into them?”

“How can you be sure?” Bai Qiang still seemed somewhat apprehensive.

“Hmph!

I have hundreds of pairs of shoes in my cupboard, I’ve seen more feet in shoes than you’ve seen clothes on your body.

This country bumpkin definitely can’t wear these Crystal Shoes, just you watch,” Xu Xiyu said to Bai Qiang with a confident air.

And Xu Xiyu’s words were soon validated by other women around her, each adorned in gold and silver, with piles of shoes at home taller than mountains; at a glance, they agreed Shi Qing’er would never be able to fit into the Crystal Shoes.

Shi Qing’er was so excited she was almost jumping for joy.

But when she heard what Smith had said, she looked at the Crystal Shoes in Liu Hun’s hand and was instantly dumbfounded, knowing better than anyone the size of the shoes she wore.

Watching Liu Hun approaching, she said despondently, “Don’t bother trying, I can’t wear them.

I will always remain Cinderella, never transforming into a princess, nor can I ever have my own Crystal Shoes.

I’ve known this since I was a child, my sister is the one who…

hey, what are you…

what are you doing?”

While Shi Qing’er was lost in her self-defeating thoughts, her eyes reddening as she spoke, she was suddenly pushed down into a chair by Liu Hun.

With eyes that seemed to see through souls, he looked at her and said, “I’ve said it before, I am a Wizard.

With me by your side, you can definitely wear the Crystal Shoes.

Your pumpkin carriage will never strike midnight.” After saying this, Liu Hun knelt on one knee and picked up one of Shi Qing’er’s feet.

Shi Qing’er’s heart raced, unsure of what to do if she couldn’t wear them moments later, and on the other hand, watching Liu Hun gently remove her shoe and sock, placing her bare foot in his palm, she felt the unique warmth from his hand spread to the sole of her foot, as if a strange sensation traveled from the bottom of her foot to her heart.

Though her character was wild, her petite feet were flawless.

Liu Hun looked at Shi Qing’er’s delicate feet and quietly smiled to himself.

“Liu Hun, hurry up and put them on!

What are you dawdling for?

I want to see how you manage to fit the Crystal Shoes on her today!” Bai Qiang stood by, urging Liu Hun on, waiting to ridicule him afterwards.

“Liu Hun, I’ve read the story.

Didn’t three sisters try to wear the shoes by cutting off their heels and toes?

Maybe you should give that a try!” Xu Xiyu said to Liu Hun with a sarcastic smile tugging at her lips.

Liu Hun didn’t pay any attention to the mockery and teasing from the two, he nodded seriously at Shi Qing’er, who immediately calmed down and entrusted everything to this man.

Liu Hun took hold of Shi Qing’er’s delicate foot with his right hand and held a Crystal Shoe with the other, slowly slipping it onto her foot.

“Squeak!” The Crystal Shoe miraculously fit perfectly onto Shi Qing’er’s foot, and Liu Hun used the same method to put on the other one.

Everyone was stunned, including Shi Qing’er herself, who couldn’t explain what was happening before her eyes, but the brief shock quickly turned into immense joy and excitement, “I got them on!

Liu Hun, you’re amazing!”

“Hey, hey!

Don’t…

don’t throw yourself…” Before Liu Hun could finish, he watched helplessly as Shi Qing’er threw herself at him in front of everyone and knocked him to the ground.

Shi Qing’er had intended to give Liu Hun a hug, but didn’t anticipate that he would kneel on one knee, incredibly unstable, and she ended up knocking him over.

“Get up quickly, you’re a star now, you’ll be laughed at.” Liu Hun said as he propped himself up to stand.

Shi Qing’er stood up as well, pulling at her hand awkwardly and sticking her tongue out at Liu Hun, yet feeling truly delighted inside.

“My goodness!

How could they actually fit her!?

Those shoes were totally mismatched for her!”

“My eyes must be deceiving me, she really got them on!

And she can even jump and dance in them?!

All the shoes in my closet are a waste!

I’ve been blind!”

“Those shoes…

although I really don’t want to admit it, but…

they truly suit Shi Qing’er.

They look too good on her!”

“…”

The surrounding people immediately started commenting, each one an expert in luxury goods, yet none could have predicted Shi Qing’er would fit into the Crystal Shoes.

“Oh!

My God!

This is simply the most wonderful romantic encounter!

The long lost Crystal Shoes have finally found their rightful owner today!

Congratulations to the beautiful and charming Ms.

Shi Qing’er!

Today, you are the most beautiful Princess, the dream of Cinderella!” Smith said excitedly, looking affectionately at the Crystal Shoes on Shi Qing’er’s feet, from that moment he had fulfilled his final commitment and found Cinderella.

“Honey…

what should we do now, you’re not really going to make me follow Shi Qing’er, are you?” Xu Xiyu said, pulling on Bai Qiang with great unease.

Compared to her earlier arrogance, she was like a completely different person.

“Don’t call me honey!

We’re not officially husband and wife, stop calling me that!

And, you can’t even see the quality of such simple shoes, yet you’re so proud?!

You’re just humiliating yourself!

You’d better go with Shi Qing’er, what can a woman do to you!

Public humiliation!” Bai Qiang said as he shook off Xu Xiyu’s hand and left angrily.

Many had heard the bet made earlier, especially the three blabbermouth sisters of Xu Xiyu.

If word got out, he’d lose all face; better to stubbornly fulfill the bet.

After all, Shi Qing’er wasn’t going to do much to Xu Xiyu, and if Liu Hun dared to make a move, then he’d really be at fault, and Bai Qiang could then turn the tables on Liu Hun.

Why not take pleasure in biting back?

There were plenty of women everywhere, but lost face was hard to regain.

Nevertheless, Bai Qiang was determined to settle the score with Liu Hun today.

He thought this as he entered the elevator and left the mall.

“Heh heh, second sister, I have some things to take care of at home, so I’m going to leave first, we’ll get in touch!”

“I have something to do too, I’ll be leaving first…”

“I’ll go see them off…”

“Hey!

You guys!

Hmph!

No loyalty!” Xu Xiyu fumed, her face twisted in anger, watching helplessly as her supposed sisters left.

“Tsck tsck, just look at this woman, she was so high and mighty just a moment ago, mocking and deriding others, Liu Hun and Shi Qing’er.

Now she knows what it feels like to be slapped in the face.”

“Isn’t this the quality of a woman who hangs onto men?

She doesn’t have much money, yet she tries to compare with others’ top agents, isn’t she asking for trouble?

In the end, even her man ditched her, and her so-called sisters don’t care anymore.

What a joke.”

“If I were Bai Qiang, I’d run too, but to tell you the truth, Bai Qiang and this woman are really birds of a feather.”

“…”
