Chapter 170 – I’ll Only Give You Five Hundred (2/2)
At that moment, Lu Baoqiang’s expression had already turned very dark. He couldn’t believe that what he did actually appeared on the laptop screen in front of him.
“Impossible!” Lu Baoqiang exclaimed. “How did you guys get that? Oh… I know, you guys placed a surveillance camera in my room!”
“Mr. Lu, don’t care about how we got the video for now. Hehe, it seems like you smashed your own vase?” I asked calmly.
“So-So what if I smashed the vase? I just like to smash vases for fun when I have nothing to do. It’s my own vase, I can smash it however I like. So? I like it!” Lu Baoqiang roared out his defense. “What’s more, what proof do you have for saying that the vase I smashed is the fragments you see?”
“Hehe, I knew you would say that. Then, please have a look at the following photos. I got Xiaowei to take photos of the fragments yesterday!” I clicked open a photo album.
“What does this prove!” Lu Baoqiang could feel that something wasn’t quite right.
“Look carefully! The sizes of the fragments in the photo is different from the fragments you showed us today! For example, look at the photo of the fragments of the vase bottom. The crack is in between the characters, but it isn’t cracked there at all with the fragments you brought out today!” I replied.
“You-You guys plotted against me!” Lu Baoqiang stood up and shouted angrily.
“We plotted against you? Are you serious? You smashed the vase yourself and you’re saying we plotted against you?” I laughed coldly. “Say, Lu Baoqiang, how do you want to handle it? Do you want to sue us, or do you want to just let it go?”
“You…” Lu Baoqiang stuttered in anger. However, the other side had proof on hand, so he wouldn’t win in a lawsuit at all. He looked furiously at the laptop screen, then sat down on the sofa weakly. After a while, he finally spoke up. “Fuck, I give up! Brat, I remember you now! You better be careful from now on!”
“Hehe, I’ve always been careful,” I said. “Then we’re off. Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, although your vase shattered, Mr. Yang’s antique store is willing to buy it too. You can talk with him about it.”
“Fragments can be sold too? How much is it worth?” Hearing that, Lu Baoqiang immediately asked Mr. Yang. At that moment, he was regretting everything way too much! Why was I such an idiot? Now only did I smash the real vase, I didn’t even get anything. He merely wanted to see how much the fragments can be sold for to hurry up and minimize his losses.
Mr. Yang nodded.
“Then have a look to decide?” Lu Baoqiang asked impatiently.
Mr. Yang thought about it and reached out five fingers.
“Fifty thousand? So little?” Lu Baoqiang said in disappointment.
Mr. Yang shook his head.
“Five thousand? Fuck, it can’t be! I spent several thousand yuan just to get someone to get the fake vase made!” Ast that moment, Lu Baoqiang no longer cared as he spoke out the truth of the incident.
“Five hundred!” Mr. Yang said. “That’s it!”
“What? Five hundred!?” Lu Baoqiang nearly fell down onto the floor! A vase worth tens of millions instantly turned into something that was only worth five hundred! However, just who was to blame?
When we walked out of Lu Baoqiang’s home, Xu Er laughed like a crazy person the moment he thought of Lu Baoqiang’s look when he realized that he was screwed. Xu Er raised his thumb, “This method was too smart! However, he won’t take revenge on my little sister, right?”
“Just tell your little sister not to work here anymore!” I said. “You can support your little sister’s school fees already, can’t you?”
“Hehe, that’s true! But my little sister is very stubborn, she always wants to support herself!” said Xu Er.
“Oh yeah, the name Xu Xueyun sounds so familiar. Where does your sister study?” I asked.
“Huaxia University!” Xu Er said proudly. After all, Huaxia University was one of the best universities within our country!
