After Divorce, Bewitching Female CEO Pursues Me - Chapter 30

“Miss Wen, is this true?” Mayor Zhang asked eagerly.

“Yes,” Wen Xue’er nodded.

“Wow!” Mayor Zhang, Zhao Tianyi, and the mayor’s secretary were astonished.

Chen Ping wasn’t just skilled in calligraphy, but also understood carving, even earning praise from Master Gu Yi, a renowned figure in the carving world. This guy knew way too much.

For someone to achieve mastery in one field over a lifetime is remarkable and considered top talent. But Chen Ping had reached the pinnacle in both calligraphy and carving. What was this?

A genius?

Mayor Zhang and Zhao Tianyi were full of admiration and didn’t know what to say for a moment.

After a while, Mayor Zhang said, “Then I must thank Miss Wen and Chen for your kindness!”

Even Master Gu Yi praised it, indicating the great value of the eagle carving. Mayor Zhang eagerly accepted it.

“It’s getting late, so I won’t delay your banquet.”

“Xiao Wang, escort Miss Wen and Chen out for me!”

“Yes, Mayor. This way, please!”

Soon, Chen Ping and Wen Xue’er walked out of the municipal building.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Chen Ping didn’t let Wen Xue’er drive him and instead took a taxi to a roadside spot in the northern suburbs.

When he arrived at the location, there were already quite a few people gathered.

Most of the Su family members were present, except for his father-in-law Su Tang, Old Master Su Jianguo, and Su Wanyun, which puzzled Chen Ping.

“Huh? Chen, you’re pretty high-profile, huh? We’ve been here for an hour, and you just arrived!”

As Chen Ping was wondering, his mother-in-law Zhang Ping started her barrage of criticism again.

“When Grandpa called me, I was busy,” Chen Ping explained calmly.

“Oh wow! Did the sun rise in the west today?” Zhang Ping deliberately looked up at the sun, “No, it’s not in the west. How strange. What could you, a little prison guard, be so busy with? Don’t tell me you just met with the mayor!”

“You’re right, I just met with the mayor,” Chen Ping said.

“You dare to say that? Why don’t you claim you just met with the head of state?” Zhang Ping said disdainfully.

“Pfft!” Hearing this, many Su family members burst into laughter, munching on sunflower seeds as they watched the show.

“Enough! Today is a big day for the groundbreaking of Dad’s farm. Can’t you say a few words less?”

At this moment, a deep voice sounded, and then a middle-aged man appeared, accompanying a Daoist in a green robe.

“Honey!”

“Dad!”

“Big Brother!”

…

Seeing Su Tang, the Su family members greeted him one after another.

Li Yunhao quickly ran up to Su Tang, eagerly holding up a sunshade for him. “Uncle Su, the sun is strong, you shouldn’t be in the sun!”

“Yunhao, I don’t mind the heat. Shade Daoist Sun instead!” Su Tang said, looking at the Daoist in green.

“Oh, my apologies. I was negligent. Please forgive me, Daoist Sun!” Li Yunhao quickly shifted the umbrella to shade Daoist Sun.

“Good job, Yunhao!”

**”Truly filial and knows how to be a good host; no wonder he’s the heir of the Li family!”**

“Indeed, a dragon begets a dragon, a phoenix begets a phoenix, and a mouse’s child…”

At this point, Zhang Ping paused intentionally and glanced at Chen Ping, “knows how to burrow!”

“Haha…”

The Su family knew Zhang Ping was targeting Chen Ping, and they all laughed again.

“Shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, get out of here!”

Suddenly, a stern voice came, followed by Old Master Su Jianguo walking slowly with Su Wanyun’s support.

“Dad!”

“Grandpa!”

“Old Master!”

…

Seeing Su Jianguo arrive, the Su family members greeted him one after another. Li Yunhao was the first to eagerly run up and present a beautifully crafted box in front of everyone.

“Grandpa, today is your special day. I wasn’t sure what gift to bring. This chicken cup cost me 700,000 yuan, and today, I’m giving it to you!”

“700,000? My goodness! Such generosity!”

“No wonder he’s the heir of the Li Group, so lavish. Wanyun will be lucky to marry him!”

“Exactly, respectful to the elders, elegant, and from a good family. Truly a perfect match for Wanyun!”

…

The Su family members praised him one after another.

Hearing these words, Su Tang was very pleased.

Zhang Ping looked at Li Yunhao with an increasingly affectionate gaze, liking him more and more.

“Yunhao, you are too generous!” Su Jianguo glanced at the chicken cup.

“You are Wanyun’s grandfather, so you are also my grandfather. As a junior, it’s only right to give you a gift. Besides, 700,000 yuan is not expensive at all,” Li Yunhao said with a smile, while casting a provocative and contemptuous glance at Chen Ping.

“Yunhao is so generous. Unlike some people who come empty-handed, with no sense of etiquette. Truly ill-mannered!” Zhang Ping said sarcastically, glaring coldly at Chen Ping, “I’m talking about you. Why are you still standing there?”

“We all brought gifts for the Old Master; only you didn’t. How can you still have the face to stay here? So shameless!”

“Aunt, Grandpa’s call was rushed, and Chen came in a hurry, it’s normal that he forgot to buy a gift…” 

“Hmph! So what if it was rushed? Does that mean he doesn’t need to buy one? Even if he was in a hurry, couldn’t he find time to buy a bottle of wine? Even if he couldn’t afford wine, he could at least buy a basket of fruit, right? But he came empty-handed, truly without manners!”

Zhang Ping rolled her eyes, clearly displeased.

“Aunt is right. Chen, you are in the wrong. I know you are just a small prison guard and don’t make much money, but you should at least be able to afford a basket of fruit, right? Coming here empty-handed is really ill-mannered,” Li Yunhao said, shaking his head as if disappointed in Chen Ping.

Chen Ping squinted and glanced at the chicken cup Li Yunhao had given, “I didn’t bring fruit, but at least I didn’t bring a fake gift.”

Pointing at the chicken cup, Chen Ping continued, “It’s a fake, and you bought it for 700,000 yuan? What a great eye you have! No wonder you’re the heir of the Li Group. Your father’s hard-earned business will eventually be ruined by you!”

“Nonsense!” Zhang Ping was furious, “Chen, if you don’t know, don’t pretend to. This chicken cup was picked by Wanyun herself with Yunhao at the Antique Street. There’s an appraisal certificate! How can it be fake?”

“I think you’re just jealous of Yunhao and trying to confuse everyone!”

“Aunt, please calm down!” Li Yunhao quickly appeased Zhang Ping, “He’s upset because Wanyun broke up with him. Now that I’m with Wanyun, he’s jealous and trying to mess with me, which is understandable.”

“Although it’s frustrating, what day is it today?”

“Today is the groundbreaking ceremony for Grandpa’s farm. We shouldn’t argue over such trivial matters. It’s unlucky!”

“Yes, it’s unlucky. Let’s stop.”

“Young Master Li is considerate.”

“A child from a prominent family is indeed different, so cultured.”
