Chapter 126: The First Gift!
After seeing the necklace, the entire chartered room went into hubbubs.
All the guests were in shock as their faces turned red!
“Oh, my god! It’s… Heart of Queens, the biggest red diamond in the world. It’s 3 times bigger than the Samyev red diamond!”
“Yes! I’ve seen the news. It’s said that the Heart of Queens was sold at 200 million US dollars through an auction in America!”“Oh, my god! 200 million US dollars is equivalent to over 1 billion China Yuan! That’s… a colossal sum of money!”
…
All the onlooking guests were astonished.
They had never imagined that Mo Tao could be so extravagant that he would spend over 1 billion RMB to buy a present for Lin Lan.
‘That’s unimaginable!’
All the rich beauties in the room were driven mad as they all stared at Lin Lan with infinite admiration and jealousy.
If a handsome man gifted them a necklace worth over 10 million RMB, they might even die, not to mention the super red diamond which was worth over 1 billion RMB!At that moment, all the onlookers fixated onto Lin Lan.
They all were certain that Lin Lan was moved deeply.
That’s just what between a prince and a goddess!
“Marry him!”
“Marry him!”
“Marry him!”
All the onlookers applauded as they cheered with a rhythm, making Mo Tao very excited.
He was very confident that he would win Lin Lan’s heart.
After all, he was Lin Lan’s best choice given his family background, social status, talent, and looks.
However, at that moment, Lin Lan replied icily, “Impossible!”
Everyone in the audience gasped as if some spilled a pot of boiling water.
‘What!’
Nobody could believe their eyes or ears!
‘She… refused him?’
…
All the guests went into an uproar.
They couldn’t believe that a woman could resist the temptation a billion RMB necklace, and the one who gifted the necklace was a handsome talented young master!
‘That’s… incredible!’
Even Mo Tao became petrified.
With a dumbfounded look, he asked Lin Lan, “Lanlan… why? It’s… the Heart of Queens! Any woman in the world would die for this necklace! But you…”
Mo Tao also couldn’t believe that Lin Lan could resist the temptation of the Heart of Queens.
Lin Lan replied with an icy look, “Sorry, I’ve got a boyfriend!”
After speaking, Lin Lan held Ye Feng’s arm with a sweet smile. She didn’t even consider the offer.
…
Lin Lan’s reply hit Mo Tao like a bomb. His mind then went blank!
“Heh? You refused me and my Heart of Queens for this liar?”
Mo Tao became furious.
After being refused in public, Mo Tao felt humiliated. Watching Lin Lan throwing herself into Ye Feng’s arms, Mo Tao became even angrier!
Therefore, Mo Tao roared at Lin Lan, “Lin Lan, he’s just a liar! This guy cheated me from many rarities and over 100 million RMB in Antique Row! How… how could you stay with him?”
After hearing Mo Tao’s words, Lin Lan’s face turned black in an instant.
She then yelled at him with a gross and vicious tone, “Please watch mouth! Ye Feng is not a liar; he’s my man!”
After hearing her words, Mo Tao was driven mad, as if his tail was stamped.
He then looked straight into Ye Feng’s eyes and said with great spite, “Brat, you’re something! You’ve not only cheated my money, but also cheated Lin Lan, and everyone else!”
“I could gift Lin Lan the Heart of Queens, what could you gift her?”
After hearing Mo Tao’s words, everyone simultaneously fixated onto Ye Feng.
They knew that Ye Feng was done. He was bound to be disgraced.
No matter what he could present, it would be dwarfed by the Heart of Queens!
Lin Lan’s face scrunched in anger as she had not imagined that Mo Tao was going to put Ye Feng on the spot.
Right before Lin Lan was about to scold Mo Tao, Ye Feng stopped her at once.
Ye Feng didn’t even take a look at Mo Tao; instead, he just took an item out of his pocket and gave it to Lin Lan.
“Actually, I wanted to gift this to you in the daytime!”
Ye Feng opened his fist, and handed it to Lin Lan!
It was a bracelet made of stones.
It was composed of 13 small uneven stones. As if it was carved by a knife, the surface of each stone was covered with tadpole-shaped patterns.
…
Everyone in the present was shocked by what they saw.
They had never seen such a crude and low-quality bracelet.
‘Ye Feng wants to gift that piece of cr*p to the goddess Lin Lan? He must be insane!’
…
The chartered room went into an uproar, once again!
At the sight of that bracelet, Mo Tao burst out into laughter.
“Haha…. a bracelet made of stones. That’s hilarious! I remember the original stone that made this bracelet! It was gifted by Master Gu for free! Haha… this guy made it into a bracelet and gifted it to Lin Lan…”
Mo Tao’s words were like adding a drop of water in a pot with boiling oil. The room exploded with noise and laughter.
Everyone glanced at Ye Feng with a scornful look.
They couldn’t imagine that Ye Feng could be so mean!
‘He must be insane!’
“Master Gu! Come over here, is that the stone you gifted him?”
Master Gu had long recognized Ye Feng; however, he didn’t get an opportunity to catch up with him.
Not until then did they give way to Master Gu, allowing him to approach Ye Feng.
“Young friend, nice to see you again!”
Master Gu treated Ye Feng very politely. However, after seeing this bracelet, he asked with a frown, “Young friend, you made that stone into a bracelet?”
Even though Master Gu thought highly of Ye Feng, he still despised Ye Feng’s ungrateful deed.
Master Gu thought that Ye Feng treated his girlfriend too stingily.
After hearing Master Gu’s question, all the guests burst out into laughter.
They all looked at Ye Feng as if he were a fool.
They all thought he was a mean weirdo!
Right then, Lin Lan grabbed that bracelet with a brilliant smile and said, “Ye Feng, no matter what the others say, this bracelet is your first gift to me; and the best gift that I’ve received my whole life!”
Lin Lan then approached his cheek and left him a kiss.
She revealed a sweet smile on her coquettish face!
…
Everyone became stunned.
They couldn’t imagine that Lin Lan would accept Ye Feng’s bracelet without any discontent. She even put it on meticulously case of breaking, as if this bracelet was gifted by the Gods.
In her eyes, this bracelet was 1,000 times even 10,000 times more precious than the Heart of Queens!
Watching the scene, the crowd became petrified. Mo Tao’s face was burning with anger!
…
Right then, with a wuthering wind, a stranger in the crowd slashed his palm towards Lin Lan’s neck ferociously at the speed of light!
…
His saber was as sharp as a bullet!
The attack was insanely fast!
An assassin!
In a split second, everyone’s face lit up in fear.
They could not imagine that someone dared assassinate Lin Lan in public.
However, it was too late for them to help her!
The icy saber tip quickly approached Lin Lan’s neck!
‘She’s dead!’
At that moment, everyone closed their eyes. They all believed that Lin Lan was dead!
It was a fatal trap!
However, closely after, everyone became stunned!
…
When the saber tip was about to pierce Lin Lan’s skin, a gloomy green light flashed out of the stone bracelet!
Then, a destructive force hit the assassin!
Puff!
The assassin was sent flying like a kite that was cut off from its line!
