Just this bottle was worth tens of millions, and it was the old master's favorite bottle. If he saw it later, the outcome would be unimaginable.
Bai Yu had understood the morals of these people, so she naturally would not smash the vase. After all, she was also short of money now. If she could exchange it for money, she could accept it even if the price was lower.
She stood in front of Liu Xu and handed over the bottle.
Liu Wentian carefully took the bottle, and his expression instantly relaxed. However, he immediately roared, "Tie up these two lunatics!"
Bai Yu dodged around. With one hand, she pulled Liu Xu, and with the other, she casually grabbed something and threw it at the bodyguard.
She ran to the door and was about to go out when the door was suddenly pushed open.
Bai Yu stood rooted to the ground in a daze. She appeared to be a completely different person from before.
The person's hair was white, and he was still wearing an oxygen mask. His figure was thin, and he looked like he was terminally ill.
Seeing Liu Xu, the old man's eyes lit up as he called out weakly, "Little Xu!"
A hint of pain flashed in Liu Xu's eyes, but he quickly lowered his head, as if he could not see the pain and love in the old man's eyes.
Bai Yu could not see Liu Xu's reaction, but he saw the disappointment and regret on the old man's face clearly.
There were too few truly good people in the wealthy families. Having experienced too many dangers and schemes, she still had some experience in judging people.
This old man gave her a rare feeling of no malice in his bearings. There was even a hint of pity.
The originally chaotic scene immediately fell silent. The bodyguards also stood rooted to the ground, not daring to move.
"Dad! You're here!"
Liu Qingquan glanced at him indifferently, and the expression on his face instantly converged, hiding his emotions.
Liu Wentian hurriedly went forward to take the wheelchair, looking like a filial son.
Because Liu Qingquan did not like Zhao Xinya, she did not come today.
"Little Xu, follow me to the study!" He found it difficult to speak. After a pause, he continued, "Little Yu will come along as well!"
Liu Wentian hurriedly said, "Dad! Little Xu is prone to going crazy. Why don't I…"
Liu Qingquan waved his hand, indicating that he had made up his mind.
Then, for some reason, Bai Yu followed Liu Xu to the study.
As soon as she entered, she realized that this was a real study. There were white bookshelves on all four walls, and there were books everywhere. She acted as if she had ADHD, constantly touching here and there and looking around curiously.
Bai Yu did not really want to read, but she was just curious. At the same time, she was really concerned about the antique calligraphy and paintings around. These things were worth a lot of money, and any one of them could solve most of her problems.
Liu Wentian's eyes hurt when he saw this. He was afraid that Bai Yu would go crazy and break these things.
After pushing Liu Qingquan into the study, he stared fixedly at Bai Yu before closing the door. When he saw her pick up an antique from the shelf, his face was filled with worry as he slowly closed the door, afraid that he would alarm the other party and accidentally drop and break the antique.
Liu Qingquan then brought Liu Xu into a lounge in the study.
Bai Yu realized that the moment Liu Xu closed the door, his aura immediately changed strangely. His eyes widened as if he had realized something.
"This dog, he actually pretended to be sick too?"
She had completely forgotten that she was also pretending to be mentally ill. At this moment, she was extremely angry.
In the lounge, Liu Xu knelt on the ground.
Liu Qingquan took off his oxygen mask and panted, "Why are you kneeling? I'm not dead yet!"
Liu Xu did not speak and continued to kneel on the ground quietly.
Liu Qingquan sighed softly and said emotionally, "Back then… I asked you to pretend to be ill for… your own good. If I die, the Liu family… will definitely be torn into pieces. I watched you grow up and know that you're smart and wise, and I also know that… you resent me. However, the Liu family… will be handed over to you!"
Liu Qingquan spoke very slowly and intermittently.
Liu Xu had long known his grandfather's plan. Once the Liu family split, they would definitely be targeted and torn by the other competitors.
All these years, the various large families had been causing a ruckus. Liu Qingquan had nurtured Liu Xu's brother as the next family head since he was young.
However, later on, Liu Xu's eldest brother suddenly died. He was worried that Liu Xu would also be targeted, so he sent him overseas. When he returned, he asked him to pretend to be crazy.
Everything was for Liu Xu's safety. Now that he had handed over the entire Liu family to him, he did not care if he was really willing.
This was also the reason why Liu Xu had been harboring resentment all these years. Ever since his brother died, Liu Qingquan only cared about his own safety, but did not care about his thoughts. He did not even hesitate to let him pretend to be mentally ill.
