Su Ruoxue did not respond. Ma Tianbei creased his brows and spoke again.
"President Su, if you are not satisfied, we can discuss it. I can even add another 100 million!"
The faces of everyone in the audience were twitching fiercely.
Su Ruoxue couldn't help but ask:
"Master Ma, you… Are you kidding me? Is this painting really worth that much?"
Ma Tianbei looked solemn.
"This is only a safe estimate. If the artist who painted this was a famous artist, the price could flip! But I have never heard of his reputation, so this old man can only pay you 150 million for it."
"Tsk!"
The bystanders upon hearing this had to take a deep breath.
Incredible!
One spritz of wine can elevate a fake painting to be worth 150 million! What kind of god-defying act was this?
At this moment, Zhao Wu and the others couldn't help but also feel overwhelmed.
How incredible!
Xiao Chen's greatness exceeded everyone's expectations.
All three of them combined were no match for Xiao Chen.
Qian Zihao clenched his fists, eyes green with jealousy.
He couldn't imagine that the breakthrough with Su Ruoxue he had worked so hard to think of had been ruined by Xiao Chen in the blink of an eye. Xiao Chen had crushed him under his footsteps so hard that he couldn't even climb back up!
Watching his proud figure, Qian Zihao's heart was full of envy.
But at this moment, an angry voice appeared from outside the hotel.
"Who murdered my Shen family's wife and the Yu family's madam? Show yourself!"
Hearing this voice, the bystanders began to shiver.
"The Shen and Yu family have arrived! They're finally here!"
Qian Zihao smirked. Great, now that the Shen and Yu families have arrived, Xiao Chen is done for!
Hahaha!
Now, even if Xiao Chen's artistic abilities are sky high, it's useless!
Who would be afraid of a master of all arts if he's dead?
Su Ruoxue immediately appeared next to Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Chen, the Shen and Yu family are here."
"Mhmm."
Xiao Chen murmured lightly. Seeing his calm expression, Su Ruoxue knew that Xiao Chen did not care for them.
After all, how can a person who can make Young Master Chen bow down be afraid of the Shen and Yu family?
Qi Nuanyu and the others pulled Su Ruoxue aside, keeping her away from Xiao Chen.
"Ruoxue, don't be so close to him! He might drag you into it!"
"That's right, Ruoxue. The Shen and Yu families have powers far above ours. If you offend them, the three of us might even have to lose a few layers of skin tonight!"
Su Ruoxue smiled calmly.
"Don't worry. With Xiao Chen here, we will be okay."
Qian Zihao smiled as he added:
"Ruoxue, you're putting him on a pedestal! Sure, he's good at recognizing art and is even godlike, but that doesn't mean it will save his life. The Shen family alone has a net worth over 100 million yuan, and even more when the Shen and Yu households combined. The strength of these families add up to over 20 billion! Even if several of our families combine, we are no match for them!"
Su Ruoxue smiled with confidence.
"I trust Xiao Chen. He will find a way to resolve this."
Her extreme trust in Xiao Chen made Qian Zihao's eyes flash with fury. He clenched his fists tightly in anger.
His eyes were full of jealousy as he stared at Xiao Chen not far away.
"Xiao Chen, I curse you. Today will be your end!"
Xiao Chen did not bat an eye at his curse.
Xiao Chen's inhuman consciousness allowed him to perceive the words and expressions of every single person around him.
But Qian Zihao wasn't on the same level as him. To get upset with him was lowering his own self-worth.
As their voices travelled, the Shen and Yu families entered the hotel.
With these families having a net worth of over 10 billion yuan, the situation was one of a kind.
All the descendants and members of both families were present.
A row of younger generation descendants stood to the left, all wearing luxurious brand name and custom tailored suits.
To the right was a boudoir show, all women garbed in limited edition brand name outfits.
Their clothes alone must have cost over 20 million yuan, not including the jewelry and accessories adorning their necks and wrists.
As the two families appeared, the audience in the hotel quickly moved out of their way. Nobody dared contest them.
You had to know they had come bearing supreme anger.
The heirs of the families stood together, creating a wide passage in the middle. Two middle-aged men entered the hotel side by side.
Both of them were decked out in branded and custom tailored suits.
What made them stand out was that the two middle-aged men were exuding an air of oppressive majesty.
This was a demeanor that could only be cultivated through time.
The two weren't just nobility; they had thousands, or even tens of thousands of employees under each of their control!
As soon as they appeared, the audience went silent. Not a person dared to speak. They were too terrified of speaking the wrong words and triggering the two. That was asking for death!
Qi Nuanyu, Zhao Wu and the others couldn't help but reveal a look of longing.
Although their families were very wealthy, they were still a long way to go from matching the Shen and Yu families. It wasn't even a competition!
Moreover, although it seemed like they made money with ease, they all had their own bottlenecks. If they wanted to reach a net worth of tens of billions, it would take hard work through several generations!
Now, they could only look longingly and admire these two families and aspire to be them.
Thinking of this, Qi Nuanyi looked at Xiao Chen. She couldn't help but express a trace of regret.
Just now, when Xiao Chen had demonstrated his artistic abilities, she had felt Xiao Chen was a powerful being. Unfortunately, it took less than ten minutes for those thoughts to shatter; Xiao Chen was on his deathbed.
How deceptive!
But if Xiao Chen was more sensible and didn't act so arrogant and disrespectful, he wouldn't have provoked the Shen and Yu families.
He was still too tender, unfamiliar with how to hide his rough edges before meeting his own demise.
From that point of view, Xiao Chen was indeed lowly.
She couldn't help but shake her head and dispel all thoughts of admiration towards Xiao Chen from her head.
An unknowing man on the brink of death was not worthy of her admiration!
