Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Not Expensive, Just a Flower
At this moment, looking at Chu Chen, the Yan Family found themselves quite baffled.
Chu Chen turned out to be the hidden owner of Shuitian Villa.
“Ah, young Chu, you really keep surprising me more and more, don’t you?”
Yan Luoshui’s father said with a sigh.
Because he wasn’t interested in business and focused on research, he was often scolded by the old man.
Now, having found such a young and promising son-in-law, let’s see what the old man has to say.
“Young Chu, you must come visit our home sometime soon.”
Having thoroughly accepted Chu Chen as his son-in-law, Yan Fu had already started considering taking Chu Chen to the Yan Family to meet the old man.
Of course, by doing so, Yan Fu also had a little intention of showing off, thinking, let’s see what the old man says now.
Yan Mother was also increasingly satisfied as she looked at Chu Chen.
“It’s all my fault. Since Uncle and Auntie want to go, I’ll arrange that right away.”
Chu Chen made a phone call.
“Okay, Uncle and Auntie can go in the future, and they can directly move into Villa No. 1 without any procedures or VIP cards.”
In the living room, Chu Chen was chatting with Yan Fu, while Yan Mother pulled Yan Luoshui into the kitchen.
“Mom, how about it? No need to urge blind dates anymore, right?”
Yan Luoshui said to her mother with some pride, as if asking how she dared to keep urging her on blind dates.
Today’s events were something she hadn’t expected at all.
In such a short while, Chu Chen had already won over her parents.
“Not bad, not bad indeed.”
“Listen to your mom’s advice; you should get married to young Chu and have kids as soon as possible.”
The next second, the proud smile on Yan Luoshui’s face froze completely.
Such a big twist!
Earlier, she misunderstood that she and Chu Chen had children, was terribly angry, and now actually wanted her to have children?
“Mom.”
How did it turn to having kids? Yan Luoshui said shyly, deliberately changing the subject:
“Why don’t you teach me to cook? My culinary skills are really not that good.”
Yan Mother tapped Yan Luoshui on the forehead:
“You girl, you didn’t learn well when I taught you to cook before.”
“Now you understand its importance, right? If you want to capture a man’s heart, first capture his stomach.”
While educating her daughter, Yan Mother also taught Yan Luoshui.
A day passed.
The next day, Yan Luoshui accompanied her parents to play at Shuitian Villa. Chu Chen did not go with them; he had arranged everything, and when Yan Luoshui’s family arrived, they would be warmly welcomed.
“Old Chu, Teacher Gao retired yesterday.”
Chu Chen received a call from Han Yuan, the chubby one.
“Huh?”
Hearing this, Chu Chen was stunned.
He hadn’t expected Teacher Gao to retire.
Teacher Gao was a very kind old man who was very nice to Chu Chen.
“Some classmates are planning to visit Teacher Gao today. Are you going?”
“Of course, I’m going.”
Chu Chen replied without hesitation.
Because Han Shishi’s father was still in the hospital, Han Yuan couldn’t make it, so he asked Chu Chen to greet Teacher Gao for him.
Since Han Shishi was in her senior year of high school, she and her mother had left Jiangzhou and returned earlier. Han Yuan stayed back to take care of his father, who was much better now.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Chen tidied up a bit and prepared to go to Teacher Gao’s house. Having been there a few times, he knew the way.
“I can’t go empty-handed.”
Gifting antiques or money would seem insincere.
“Oh yes, Teacher Gao seems to really like orchids.”
Chu Chen suddenly remembered Teacher Gao’s hobby and headed to his backyard.
Chu Chen recalled there was a very beautiful orchid in the backyard.
“That’s the one.”
Chu Chen found tools, dug up the orchid, and prepared to bring it to Teacher Gao.
A lover of orchids, Teacher Gao would surely be very happy with this gift.
More than twenty minutes later, Chu Chen arrived at an old residential building.
Knock knock knock.
Chu Chen knocked on the door, and a gentle beauty with a rating over 95 points opened the door.
“You’re here to see Teacher Gao too, right? I’m his daughter. Come in, please.”
The gentle beauty spoke.
So she was the teacher’s daughter, no wonder she was so pretty. @@novelbin@@
“Thank you.”
Holding the orchid, Chu Chen walked in and first saw four or five classmates already sitting in the living room.
“Chu Chen.”
“You came too.”
Seeing Chu Chen, a few classmates spoke up.
“Teacher, I came to see you.”
Seeing Teacher Gao coming over, Chu Chen sincerely spoke.
“Didn’t forget about this old fellow, have a seat.”
Teacher Gao said with a smile.
“I know you like orchids, Teacher, so I brought you a gift.”
With that, Chu Chen handed over the orchid.
“So beautiful.”
Upon seeing the orchid from Chu Chen for the first time, Teacher Gao’s eyes couldn’t bear to leave it.
“Have a seat.”
The teacher’s wife spoke, being quite cold towards Chu Chen.
When other students came to see the teacher, they brought bird’s nest or sea cucumbers, but he brought just a flower?
Having been to Teacher Gao’s home before and knowing his wife was somewhat snobbish, Chu Chen didn’t mind much.
“Chu Chen, I heard you’re also from a wealthy second generation. How can you just give a flower?”
“Aren’t you embarrassed to give it?”
A young man sitting with his legs crossed said disdainfully.
He was Sun Hongshuo, from the class next door to Chu Chen, also a famous rich second generation in their department.
Today, he brought bird’s nest worth tens of thousands. It was the first time he met the renowned Chu Chen from school and expected Chu Chen to give some valuable gifts too.
Unexpectedly, he just gave a flower.
“This is such disrespect to the teacher, isn’t it embarrassing?”
After hearing this, everyone didn’t speak, agreeing with Sun Hongshuo; indeed.
Giving a flower, what’s that all about?
A rich second generation, huh?
Not far away, the teacher’s wife also nodded slightly, looking at Chu Chen with some displeasure.
“It’s okay, young Chu’s gesture is appreciated…”
Teacher Gao spoke, not the least bit disdainful of Chu Chen for giving a flower.
He was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly stopped.
Looking at the flower Chu Chen gave, Teacher Gao suddenly thought of something.
“Young Chu, is your flower expensive?” Teacher Gao suddenly asked.
“Not expensive, just a flower.”
Chu Chen shrugged and replied casually.
He hadn’t even spent money; it was just dug up from the backyard.
Just a flower, how much could it be worth?
Everyone couldn’t help but complain in their hearts.
“No, no.”
The next second, Teacher Gao suddenly went to the study and came out with a data book.
After carefully observing the orchid Chu Chen gave, Teacher Gao said with immense surprise:
“Unbelievable, unbelievable.”
“I never thought I would have the chance to see it in my life.”
Seeing Teacher Gao’s excited look, everyone present was stunned.
“Teacher Gao, what’s with this orchid?”
Sun Hongshuo asked curiously.
“It’s the Tang Dynasty Phoenix Feather!”
Teacher Gao said with utmost seriousness.
“How much is it worth?”
“Hard to say exactly. I saw on the news recently, an orchid of lesser quality than this Tang Dynasty Phoenix Feather sold for over two million. This one would be at least three million.”
Teacher Gao thought for a moment.
What?
After hearing Teacher Gao’s explanation, everyone was completely dumbfounded.
Three million?
A flower worth three million!
Impossible!
At this moment, everyone suddenly remembered what Chu Chen had said earlier.
Not expensive, just a flower.
Three million was not expensive, then what was expensive?!
What do you think?
