Chapter 21:
"Pah!"
"Who doesn't talk big!"
Jiang Meishan suddenly got excited and took out a magazine from her bag.
"Have you seen this necklace? If you really have the ability, buy this necklace!"
"If you can't even get a Tears of Mermaid, what's the point of talking about the best? What a joke!"
Yun Bufan chuckled inwardly.
This woman really hit the nail on the head by bringing up what hit him the hardest.
However, he wasn't in a hurry to take out the necklace.
At this moment, Su Chen flashed a smug expression.
"Speaking of the Tears of Mermaid, it's a coincidence..."
With that, he took out a jewelry box from his pocket and opened it.
"Oh my god, it's the Tears of Mermaid!"
When they saw the necklace, many people exclaimed.
The dazzling gemstones sparkled under the crystal lamp, dazzling everyone.
"How did you get it?"
Bai Yuexi asked excitedly, her eyes filled with longing.
Su Chen waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's just a coincidence, a gift from someone else."
Everyone's gaze toward Su Chen immediately changed.
Being able to give the Tear of Mermaid as a gift, he must be someone powerful.
It showed that Su Chen had a strong background.
Bai Yuexi suddenly felt very proud.
All the rich and famous in Luo City want this necklace.
"Su Chen, who do you plan to give this necklace to?"
Bai Yuexi asked knowingly, but Su Chen felt conflicted.
He didn't want to let go of Shen Qingxin, but Bai Yuexi wasn't bad either.
But seeing how eager Bai Yuexi was, he felt more likely to win her over.
"Of course, I'll give it to Miss Bai."
Su Chen personally put the necklace on Bai Yuexi.
The fair and beautiful young lady wearing the gemstone necklace instantly became the envy of the whole room.
Bai Yuexi felt extremely pleased.
"Ahem!"
An untimely cough sounded.
Yun Bufan's lips curled, "What a coincidence, I also have a Tears of Mermaid, also a gift from a friend."
Saying so, he took out an identical necklace from his pocket, gasps filled the air.
"There are only seven of these necklaces in the country. Yours must be fake!"
Jiang Meishan asserted confidently and refused to believe Yun Bufan could possess a Tear of Mermaids.
Yun Bufan replied calmly, "You may not be aware, but the real Tears of Mermaid doesn't rely on certificates. Each one has a unique serial number stamped on the clasp."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yuexi's expression changed slightly.
"Miss Bai, don't listen to his nonsense. The one I gave you is one hundred percent genuine."
Su Chen was very confident.
"Is it true? Just take it off and check for the serial number." Someone suggested from the side.
Bai Yuexi took off the necklace and examined it closely.
But soon, her pretty face changed color.
There was no serial number!
Seeing her expression, everyone understood.
Their gaze toward Su Chen immediately became mocking and complex.
Gifting a fake necklace on such a formal occasion was extremely embarrassing.
"It's impossible, this was clearly..."
Su Chen tried to recall that night, not understanding where things went wrong.
He checked the certificate and purchase invoice. They were all genuine. How could the necklace be fake?
Unless!
He suddenly looked at the necklace in Yun Bufan's hand.
It couldn't be, unless Yun Bufan was a god. How could he predict that he would go to the bar and arrange everything in advance?
Su Chen felt like his brain was about to crash.
And at this moment, Yun Bufan walked behind Shen Qingxin and put the necklace on her.
"Isn't this... too precious?"
Touching the smooth gemstone on her collarbone, Shen Qingxin's heart raced.
Even if she was indifferent and aloof, she couldn't help but be moved by such a precious jewel, especially in front of many people.
It could be said that Yun Bufan saved her face a lot.
"I promised to give you the best." Yun Bufan smiled slightly, "Besides, you deserve this necklace."
Flush!
Shen Qingxin's cheeks turned red.
She quickly lowered her head to conceal her swirling emotions.
"It's fake!"
Su Chen was slapped in the face hard and couldn't accept this reality.
And he began to roar.
"How could he have a Tears of Mermaid!"
"Either the necklace is fake, or he got it through illegitimate means!"
Jiang Meishan's voice also echoed.,"That's right, he's from a third-rate family. How could he possibly obtain this necklace? I'm sure it has an illegitimate source!"
Feeling embarrassed, Bai Yuexi couldn't help but protect her pride.
"They're all fake necklaces. No one should laugh at anyone!"
Jiang Meishan said, "I think we should call the police. Maybe the necklace was stolen!"
Seeing Shen Qingxin wearing the Tears of Mermaid, she was almost sour to death.
Amidst the chaos —
"Who's the idiot who said the necklace was stolen?"
A powerful voice instantly suppressed everyone.
When they saw the person clearly, everyone's expression became very respectful.
Dressed in a black suit, Feng Li strode forward with five or six assistants and bodyguards following behind him.
"CEO Feng!"
Jiang Meishan greeted him with a smile.
"Get out of here!"
Feng Li's face was cold, "Its you who just said the necklace was stolen, right?"
Jiang Meishan's expression froze instantly.
"What!"
Not only Jiang Meishan but everyone present was jaw-dropped.
Feng Li was the son of the top big shot in Luo City.
How did Yun Bufan know him?
And why did Feng Li gave such a precious necklace to Yun Bufan?
Every link in this chain of events was incredible.
"Yun Bufan is a friend I invited. Disrespecting him is disrespecting me."
Feng Li pointed at his bodyguard, "Escort this lady out."
Feng Li was the most powerful young man in the city.
Even the parents of many second-rate families didn't dare to offend him.
Jiang Meishan could only accept her misfortune and be kicked out publicly.
At this moment, Feng Li's gaze fell on Su Chen.
But obviously, being slapped in the face wasn't something to be proud of, so Feng Li didn't say anything.
"Miss Bai, after the banquet, do you have time to chat?"
Feng Li looked at Bai Yuexi expectantly.
Bai Yuexi smiled faintly. "I'm not interested in chatting with you, but —"
Bai Yuexi stepped forward and walked to Yun Bufan's side, blinking, "I'm interested in chatting with him."
Yun Bufan was dumbfounded.
Damn, did this B_itch Bai take the wrong medicine?
Soon, two displeased gazes shot over.
Su Chen had a gloomy expression.
Feng Li's face wasn't good either. After all, Bai Yuexi was the woman he wanted to pursue.
Yun Bufan helplessly said, "Miss Bai, we're not familiar, there's nothing to talk about."
Bai Yuexi grabbed his wrist, "Once acquaintances, twice friends. We'll get familiar after a chat."
Looking at Bai Yuexi's eyes shining cunningly, Yun Bufan suddenly understood.
She was blatantly seeking revenge!
