Chapter 144 Gift
Before Ye Wutian could say anything, a particularly loud shout sounded at the door: "Zheng Guowen, President of the Municipal Bank of China, come with his family!"
The originally bustling yard gradually became quiet, and everyone's eyes looked at the door of the yard.
Ye Wutian saw a tall and majestic man with a square face coming in at the door. He was Zheng Guowen, the president of the Municipal Bank of China. Behind Zheng Guowen was a young man with the same tall figure. This young man was his son Zheng Jian, who was the future son-in-law in Su Zhiyuan's eyes.
As soon as the two of them came in, Su Zhiyuan hurriedly pulled his daughter to greet him, and the few people near the door had already greeted Zheng Guowen. For these small and medium-sized enterprises, it would be much easier to get a loan in the future if they could make friends with big names like the president of the Good Bank of China. Moreover, these people arrived so early, basically for Zheng Guowen. Otherwise, with Su Zhiyuan, the boss who was about to go bankrupt, they would not have come so early even if they gave face to the banquet.
"President Zheng, welcome." Su Zhiyuan greeted him with a smile, and then said, "Su Mengli again, and Su Mengli could only call Uncle Zheng reluctantly.
Zheng Guowen is a serious person, so he just smiled and nodded.
Zheng Jian was quite active. He strode forward, walked up to Su Mengli, and congratulated him: "Mengli, I wish you a happy birthday."
Su Mengli just forced a smile out of her smile. She really didn't think much of Zheng Jian in front of her.
"Zheng Jian is so eloquent, so likable, haha." Su Zhiyuan smiled and walked to Zheng Guowen again and said, "President Zheng, I plan to announce the engagement date of these two children during this banquet. What do you think?"
Zheng Guowen nodded in agreement: "Since the day has been decided, it's time to make it public."
Seeing the other party agreeing, Su Zhiyuan was naturally happy. The time he made a decision in the past was just a verbal promise, but if he announced this matter in front of so many people today, it would be a foregone conclusion.
Then, Su Zhiyuan invited Zheng Guowen to the main table, and guests around came to toast and greet Zheng Guowen. In this way, even if they could not make friends, they could at least become familiar with each other.
The loud announcement of the servants outside the door rang one after another, and guests who received the invitations came one after another.
As time passed, the sky gradually darkened, and several 1,000-watt projectors in the yard lighted up, illuminating the entire yard like daytime.
Seeing that the time was almost the same and the guests were basically present, Su Zhiyuan walked to the front of the table with a prepared microphone, coughed twice, and said, "You are welcome to attend the girl's birthday party. I believe many friends present have heard that at today's birthday party, I will announce a piece of news to you."
The yard became quiet, and everyone's eyes were resting on Su Zhiyuan.
Su Zhiyuan paused and was about to continue speaking, but at this moment, Ye Wutian pulled Su Mengli and walked in front of him.
"Uncle, I have something to say before you announce the good news." Ye Wutian's mouth raised slightly, and his smile was a little strange.
Su Zhiyuan frowned suddenly. He glared at Ye Wutian fiercely, gritted his teeth and asked sternly: "What trick do you want to play?"
"Mengli and I are in love, so I want to ask my uncle to allow us to date." Ye Wutian asked seriously. Of course, he knew that the other party would definitely not agree, and he said this in front of so many people just to block the other party from announcing the engagement.
Hearing Ye Wutian's words, a rustling rumbling sound immediately sounded in the yard, and Su Zhiyuan was naturally extremely angry.
"Mr. Su, what's going on?" Zheng Guowen asked with a hint of anger.
Su Zhiyuan hurriedly explained: "President Zheng, this is the matter. This kid cured his inner man's illness, so he forced his daughter to marry him because of this matter."
Hearing Su Zhiyuan's explanation, accusations immediately erupted in the crowd.
Su Mengli looked at her at a loss. Although she knew that Ye Wutian did all this for her, she was panicked for a moment because she had to make things happen in front of so many people, and she didn't know what to say.
Before Ye Wutian could argue, Zheng Jian strode up and looked Ye Wutian up and down, and said contemptuously: "Boy, you are too overestimating your ability. Just because of your poor appearance, do you think you deserve Mengli?"
There were immediately bursts of ridicule in the crowd. Of course, these people were all standing on the side of the bank president's son.
Ye Wutian sneered and said, "Do I look very poor? I just dress casually, but in other words, people of your level naturally don't recognize the foreign brands in me."
Zheng Jian snorted and laughed, saying sarcastically: "Foreign famous brands? You are really thick-skinned. I think it's only street stalls that cost more than ten yuan per piece?"
"Then I'll give you twenty yuan. Go and buy me the same one to see." Ye Wutian smiled with a playful face.
"Hmph! Tell you, don't show a rogue face in front of me." Zheng Jian warned with his eyes. He was obviously relying on his size and being bigger than Ye Wutian, and he was posing as he wanted to beat someone, trying to make Ye Wutian retreat with difficulty.
"What? I just wanted to hit someone? I think you are no different from those gangsters on the street!" Ye Wutian took the opportunity to mock him.
"You!" At this moment, Zheng Jian really had the urge to beat the boy in front of him, but considering his identity, he finally endured it. "Since you are wearing a foreign brand, I want to see what birthday gift you have prepared for Mengli today."
As he said that, Zheng Jian took out an exquisitely packaged jewelry box from his pocket, opened it, took out a tourmaline pendant from it, held it in his hand and showed it to everyone, saying, "This is a 62.55-carat natural pigeon blood-red tourmaline."
There were immediately rumblings of discussion in the crowd.
"This tourmaline is rich and bright in color, crystal clear, and it must be valuable, right?"
"This pigeon blood red is the highest quality color among tourmalines. This tourmaline is probably worth 600,000 to 700,000."
...
Although all the bosses present were the bosses of small and medium-sized enterprises. A birthday gift was worth 600,000 to 700,000 yuan, which was already a very luxurious one for them.
Hearing the people's comments and exclamations, Zheng Jian was obviously very proud. He glanced coldly at Ye Wutian, then handed the pendant to Su Mengli, and said, "Although it's not worth much, it's my turn. I hope you can like Mengli."
Su Mengli glanced at Ye Wutian, then declined to Zheng Jian and said, "Mr. Zheng, I have received your wishes, but your gift is too expensive, I really can't accept it."
Zheng Jian hurriedly said, "Mengli, this is a gift I specially selected for you. If you don't accept it, wouldn't it be a waste of my hard work!"
Seeing Su Mengli in a dilemma, Ye Wutian stepped forward and laughed: "You have the nerve to take this little trick, but you even chose it specially. It's so funny."
Zheng Jian sneered with a gloomy face: "So, the gift you prepared is more expensive than mine? Why not take it out and take it out and take a look." He didn't think the local bun in front of him could produce any decent gifts.
Ye Wutian raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "Although the most important thing about gifts is not value, but intention, my gift is indeed a little more expensive than you."
While speaking, Ye Wutian took out a string of diamond chains from his pocket and said, "This is a 637-carat "unparalleled" diamond necklace designed and produced by Mouawad. The center of this necklace is a 407.48-carat "unparalleled" diamond pendant. This is the world's largest internal flawless diamond evaluated by the American Gem Academy, and is cut in step. In addition, the necklace is also covered with dozens of diamonds of various cutting techniques, including: 35 round diamonds, 27 pear diamonds, 9 heart diamonds, 5 emerald diamonds, 5 diamonds, 4 oval diamonds, 3 square diamonds, and 2 Leidien brilliant-cut diamonds. This is more expensive than your broken thing, right?"
As he said that, Ye Wutian walked to Su Mengli again and helped her put on the necklace.
After a moment of silence around, Zheng Jian suddenly burst into laughter: "It took a lot of time to memorize your words, right? If I guess correctly, it should be the vendor selling jewelry on the street stall telling you, right? There is also a 637-carat "unparalleled" diamond necklace. Come on, I think you don't look embarrassed here." Zheng Jian said sarcastically.
Everyone laughed at each other. Obviously no one would believe that this local bun could come up with such a world-class diamond chain. You should know that the legendary "unparalleled" diamond necklace is a sky-high treasure worth hundreds of millions.
Of course, Su Mengli would not believe that this necklace is as expensive as Ye Wutian said. If she knew that there was a necklace worth $55 million on her neck, she would not have stood firm.
Faced with the ridicule of everyone, Ye Wutian was too lazy to argue with them.
Seeing Ye Wutian's stern appearance, Su Zhiyuan walked up and said without hesitation: "Doctor Ye, please stop at the right time. I, Su Zhiyuan, will not marry your daughter to you. You will just give up your heart!"
Although he didn't say it to the microphone, Su Zhiyuan's voice was very loud and firm, and everyone in the audience could hear it.
At this moment, Ye Wutian was like a clown, ridiculed and ridiculed by everyone, but he remained calm. If he had seen these ignorant people, wouldn’t he seem even more ignorant?
Su Mengli touched Ye Wutian and whispered: "Ye Wutian, you might as well go back first."
