Chapter 13 - Chapter 13

When she left the Xiao Group, Xiao Churan was extremely excited. Tomorrow, her grandmother would officially announce her new appointment, and she would finally be able to hold her head high!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but say to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, thank you! If it weren't for your encouragement, I wouldn't dare to take on this task."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Wife, you deserve all of this." Then, Ye Chen continued, "By the way, dear, with such a big celebration, don't we need to celebrate?"

Xiao Churan nodded, "How do you want to celebrate?"

Ye Chen smiled, "It's almost our third wedding anniversary, so why not celebrate it together? I'll handle the arrangements, you don't have to worry."

Xiao Churan asked in surprise, "Are you planning to surprise me?"

"Yes!" Ye Chen nodded, smiling. "I want to prepare a surprise for you!"

Xiao Churan felt a little sweet inside and said, "Then I won't ask you what it is specifically!"

Ye Chen said, "No need to ask, just wait and see!"

In order to prepare a special wedding anniversary for his wife, Ye Chen thought of many plans. Overall, they all focused on compensation, after all, he used to be poor and couldn't afford to buy gifts for his wife, or even give her a formal wedding. Now that he had money, he must compensate her well.

After leaving his wife, Ye Chen came to a jewelry store in the center of Jinling City called Cui Ge Xuan. Cui Ge Xuan is the most famous local jewelry store. Gold, platinum, diamonds, jade, and jadeite are all available.

Ye Chen wanted to buy a gift for his wife first, and then go to the best hotel to book a belated wedding. After arriving at Cui Ge Xuan, the shopping guides ignored him when they saw him wearing a plain Adidas outfit.

After browsing for a while, Ye Chen set his eyes on a jadeite necklace locked in the cabinet. The material of this necklace was the top-grade ice jadeite, exquisite and grand, which perfectly matched Xiao Churan's temperament.

Ye Chen looked at the price tag, 13 million yuan, which was insignificant to him. So he called a salesperson and said, "Hello, could you please take out this necklace for me to have a look?"

The salesperson glanced at Ye Chen and said, "I don't have the key; it's with our manager." Then, he used the intercom to say, "Manager Wang, someone wants to see our store's treasure!"

Soon, a very glamorous woman named Wang Yan, who was the sales manager here, ran over excitedly. "Who wants to see our store's treasure?"

The salesperson pointed at Ye Chen and said, "Manager Wang, it's this gentleman."

"What?" Wang Yan looked at Ye Chen, suddenly feeling nauseous. How could this waste afford to buy the store's treasure?

Thinking of this, she immediately said to the male shopping guide, "Xiao Liu, are you kidding me?"

Xiao Liu said, "No, this gentleman really wants to see the store's treasure."

Wang Yan cursed, "Can this kind of trash afford our store's treasure? Are you blind? If you're blind, then shut up and get out before you annoy me!"

Wang Yan prided herself on being extremely perceptive. She could tell at a glance what kind of person had what kind of purchasing power. So, she immediately judged that Ye Chen was simply a poor wretch.

Forget about a 13-million treasure from the store; he probably couldn't even afford a 1,300-yuan ordinary necklace! Wasn't this just wasting her time and emotions?

The male shopping guide dared not speak when scolded. Ye Chen frowned and asked her, "Aren't you running a business here? I want to see this necklace. What's the problem?"

Wang Yan sneered, "We are running a business, but not a business for idiots. If you can't afford it, don't come to join in the fun!"

Ye Chen furrowed his brows and said, "How can you tell I can't afford it?"

"Hmph!" Wang Yan scoffed disdainfully. "This jadeite is worth millions. What are you going to use to buy it? I know, you just want me to take it out for you to take a photo and show off on social media, right?"

With that, Wang Yan crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking arrogant and full of disdain.

Hearing that the jadeite was worth millions, many people around began whispering and pointing. "Such shameless people, unable to afford it but still wanting to see it. What's the point?"

"Yeah, look at your own status, with that appearance, how can you match such a top-grade jadeite?"

"Let me tell you, there are too many people like this nowadays!"

Glancing at Wang Yan behind the counter, Ye Chen saw her disdainful smirk and made up his mind to teach this arrogant woman a lesson!

So, Ye Chen took out his phone and dialed Tang Sihai's number.

"Come to Cui Ge Xuan, prepare 13 million in cash for me. I need to see it in ten minutes."

"No problem, Young Master. I'll be there soon."

Wang Yan sneered, "You're really getting carried away! 13 million in cash? I've never seen so much cash in my life. I hope you can open my eyes! You don't even know that cash over a million needs to be pre-booked with the bank, right? Haha, you're really funny!"

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Since you've never seen so much cash, you'll see it soon."

The surrounding people also started talking.

"Poor isn't the problem; the problem is don't pretend to be rich..."

"Haha, this person doesn't look like a wealthy one at all. Even if it's 300,000, I'd call him father!"

"I just want to see what 13 million cash looks like!"

Listening to everyone standing on his side, Wang Yan couldn't help but smile. She couldn't wait to see how this poor guy would end up when he couldn't produce the cash.

A few minutes later, several Rolls-Royces suddenly stopped at the entrance of Cui Ge Xuan.

Then, eight bodyguards dressed in black suits got off from the two leading Rolls-Royces.

They carried black leather boxes in their hands, their muscles taut, their faces solemn, and a cold aura emanated from them, even making the atmosphere around them tense.

This scene shocked the entire Cui Ge Xuan! Who was this big shot? They had such a grand presence!
