Chapter 5

the spacious bed, covered her with a blanket, and reported to Qin Yi that he was safe.Qin Xi was just given sleeping pills, she just needs to have a good night's sleep, and she'll be fine.He had just...Chapter 5

Before he could even speak, Qin Xi had already snatched their daughter from Qin Mother's hands, her face streaked with tears: "Mom, how many times have I told you She's still so young, don't scare her. Why do you keep doing this If there's another time, I'll move out with Xiaoxiao."

Qin's mother, feeling guilty, quickly said, "I was just scaring you, I didn't really mean to lock her up. All I want is for you to divorce this useless man as soon as possible, and then everything will be fine."

Qin Xi ignored Qin Mu and turned to Wang Jian, her face full of sarcasm: "Mr. Wang, your family business is huge, I'm not worthy of you. Besides, I'm already married. Even if I wasn't, I wouldn't be with you. Moreover... he's back, please don't disturb our lives anymore, thank you!"

At this moment, Wang Jian's face was extremely ugly, but seeing Qin Xinci's beautiful appearance, he held back again. He thought to himself secretly, "When I get you, I'll make you taste my power."

"Xiao Xi, how can you speak like that Xiao Wang has helped us so much for your sake, don't you know"

Qin Mu's face was filled with anger. After rebuking Qin Xi, she turned to Wang Jian and said, "Xiao Wang, don't listen to her. In this family, you still have to listen to me."

Wang Jian smiled slightly: "Mother, please rest assured, I will definitely impress Xiao Xi with sincerity."

Yang Chen's expression grew colder, he even dared to express his intention to pursue the woman in front of him.

"As expected of the future heir to the Wang family, look at his demeanor, it's simply unmatched by some people."

"Our Xiaoxi is so pretty, only a young talent like Wang Shao would be the most suitable partner for her."

"Wang Shao, when you and Xiao Xi get married, I'll definitely give you a big gift."

A crowd of relatives, chattering and gossiping, openly fawned over Wang Jian, while subtly expressing their disdain for Yang Chen in their words.

Qin Xi was also so angry that her whole body trembled. But the people present were all elders after all. She swept her gaze over Yang Chen without a trace, seeing that Yang Chen's face was expressionless and silent, neither refuting nor getting angry. This made her even more disappointed in Yang Chen.

If Yang Chen knew what Qin Xi was thinking, he would definitely be so upset that he would vomit blood. The reason he remained silent was that he didn't want to embarrass Qin Xi.

At this time, the nanny continuously brought the dishes to the table. Everyone was invited to the dinner table by Qin's mother, except Yang Chen.

Yang Chen didn't know whether to leave or stay.

"Daddy, I want you to hold me while I eat."

Qin Xiaoxiao's bright voice suddenly rang out, her sparkling eyes flashing, and her rosy little arms waving at her father.

The moment his daughter's voice rang out, all anger vanished. Especially when he heard the word "Daddy," his heart melted.

Only Qin mother was relentless, she reprimanded the little girl: "Shut up! He is not your father, your father is already dead."

Qin Xiaoxiao pouted and almost cried again.

"Mom!"

Qin Xi's voice was full of impatience. She picked up her daughter from her seat and said coldly, "You sit here!"

This sentence was obviously addressed to Yang Chen. Yang Chen looked at her gratefully and hurriedly sat down.

"I want a hug from daddy!"

Sitting in her father's arms, the little girl was overjoyed. She curiously scratched her father's ears and touched his face, giggling with delight and feeling very happy.

Seeing this scene, Qin Xi's eyes flashed with a hint of tenderness.

A group of people gathered around the dining table, before they even picked up their chopsticks, Wang Jian took out a very exquisitely packaged pink gift box and handed it to Qin Xiaoxiao: "This is what Uncle Wang sent you as a birthday present. Happy birthday, Xiaoxiao!"

It turns out that today is his daughter's birthday. Thinking about how he had missed four years of his daughter's growth, Yang Chen felt a pang of guilt in his heart again.

Qin Xiaoxiao shyly glanced at Wang Jian. After all, she was only four years old, and she was very happy to receive a gift. Her eyes kept lingering on the pink cartoon paper box.

Qin Xiaoxiao took the gift: "Thank you, Uncle Wang!"

Wang Jian wore a bright smile: "Open it and see, do you like it"

The little girl was already curious about the pink box, and when she heard Wang Jian's words, she couldn't wait to open the small gift box.

After opening the outer packaging, there was another delicate small box inside. When opened again, a bracelet that sparkled with brilliance came into view.

"What a beautiful bracelet!"

Qin Yiy's niece exclaimed in surprise, her face full of envy.

"After learning about Xiaoxiao's birthday, I specially asked a friend from abroad to buy a batch of rough diamonds from a large diamond mine. Then, I hired an internationally renowned jewelry master to custom-make a diamond bracelet for Xiaoxiao. There is only one in the world."

Wang Jian looked proud, his words hinting at the preciousness of this bracelet and his importance placed on Qin Xiaoxiao's birthday.

"It's a diamond bracelet, designed by an internationally renowned jewelry master, and it's custom-made. It must be worth over hundreds of thousands, at least"

Qin Yi's eyes sparkled like little stars, she couldn't wait to possess this bracelet.

Wang Jian grinned with satisfaction, leaned back comfortably, and then said: "The diamonds themselves aren't very expensive. The main cost was hiring that jewelry master, which wasn't cheap, but it wasn't too much either. All in all, it came to about 600,000."

"600,000!"

Hearing the quote, all the relatives couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

"As expected of the Wang family's young master, he's always generous."

"The most important thing is to be good to Xiaoxiao. When Wang Shao becomes Xiaoxiao's father, Xiaoxiao's childhood will definitely be much happier."

"Yes, Xiaoxiao is really lucky to have a big shot like Wang Shao as her father so soon."

Relatives didn't care about Yang Chen's existence at all. Wang Jian, hearing this, smiled even more, and couldn't help but glance provocatively at Yang Chen.

Qin Xici's face was already as pale as paper. Although she was extremely disappointed with Yang Chen, she had never agreed to marry Wang Jian.

"Today is Xiaoxiao's birthday, you wouldn't have even prepared a present, would you"

At this moment, Qin Yi suddenly asked playfully, and for a moment, everyone's eyes turned to Yang Chen.

"Of course!" Yang Chen said.

Hearing her father's words, Xiaoxiao's face was full of anticipation. For her, no gift could compare to a gift from her father.

Qin Mu frowned. Yang Chen came empty-handed, so if he really had prepared a gift, where could he have hidden it

Others share the same idea as well.

Under the gaze of everyone, Yang Chen casually took off a pendant hanging from his neck.

"Poof!"

Qin Yi couldn't help but laugh out loud, her face full of exaggerated expression. "Yang Chen, is this the birthday gift you prepared for your own daughter A rock full of cracks Didn't you pick this up on the roadside"

Yang Chen shook his head and replied honestly, "I found it on the Gobi Desert."

His words immediately caused a burst of laughter.

Qin Xi, who had just been looking forward to Yang Chen with some anticipation, instantly froze her expression. This was his first time accompanying his daughter on her birthday, and he only sent such a picked-up stone Most importantly, the whole house was full of relatives, which was basically slapping her in the face.

No one knew that this very stone, picked up from the Gobi Desert, had helped Yang Chen fend off several fatal attacks. Every crack was a memory of a past event deeply etched in his mind.

Only Qin Xiaoxiao, when she saw this pendant, liked it very much. She raised her delicate little head and giggled: "Dad's gift, I like it so much, Dad, help Xiaoxiao put it on."

Yang Chen's face was full of a gentle smile as he carefully put the pendant on his daughter.

Even though this jade-like stone is covered in cracks, it looks very beautiful when worn by Qin Xiaoxiao's neck, just like it was tailor-made for her.

Because this was given by Yang Chen, no one would admit that this little stone was very valuable.

"What's so strange about a stone you picked up"

Qin Mu's face darkened, and she immediately looked at Qin Xi and said, "Quickly put on the bracelet that Wang Shao gave to Xiaoxiao. That way, some people will know the difference between heaven and earth."

While elevating Wang Jian, they also took the opportunity to disparage Yang Chen.

Just then, Yang Chen suddenly picked up the diamond-studded bracelet. Without even looking at it, he threw it into the trash can.

His actions left everyone speechless. He actually threw away a diamond bracelet worth six hundred thousand dollars

"What are you doing" Qin Mother was furious.

Yang Chen frowned slightly: "This bracelet, if worn for a long time, is not good for the body."

"You farted!"

Wang Jian, who was always gentle and polite, saw Yang Chen throw the bracelet in public and was instantly furious. "I spent so much effort to get this bracelet, how could you, a waste of space, insult it"

Yang Chen looked at Wang Jian coldly and asked, "You said you spent 600,000 yuan on this bracelet inlaid with rubies"

>Wang Jian angrily said, "What do you think is the problem"

"If you really spent 600,000, then I can only say, you are naive and have a lot of money!"

Yang Chen sneered and didn't give Wang Jian a chance to retort. He continued, "Red diamonds are the rarest kind of diamond, so rare that there isn't even a fixed price. They are almost never seen in the diamond market. Only some high-profile auctions will feature them."

In 1987, a 95-carat red diamond sold at Sotheby's auction for $880,000, equivalent to $920,000 per carat. In Japanese yen, it was over 60 million.

"And this bracelet of yours, it's at least 1.5 carats of diamonds, right Tell me, how did you manage to buy a red diamond bracelet for 600,000"

“This is not a natural red diamond at all, but an ordinary diamond that has been color-treated with irradiation. This kind of diamond has a very strong radioactivity. Wearing it for a long time will have a great harm to the body. You actually gave such a bracelet with serious radiation exceeding the standard to a little girl who is only four years old. What on earth is your intention”

Yang Chen's eyes were sharp and piercing, firing off a series of soul-searching questions that left Wang Jian speechless. The entire room fell silent, all eyes fixed on him. Qin Xi's expression grew dark and menacing as well.only grit his teeth and say, "I apologize, sir. If this is due to our mistake, we will certainly apologize to you."Even though his wages were not enough to support him, he had to do it. He was even mo...
