Fake Rich Daughter Is A Scientist From The Future
Chapter 106 - Jade PendantChapter 106: Jade Pendant
Huo Tian seemed like she hadn’t seen Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s livid expressions and continued talking non-stop.
“Now you’re trying to use the 20 million yuan to force me to return to the Huo Family with you guys. Although I don’t know why you guys want to bring me back, from what I know of you, you guys probably think that there are benefits to be obtained from me. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have done such an exhausting and thankless thing!”
Mr. and Mrs. Huo did not expect Huo Tian to speak so bluntly and sharply. Their faces immediately turned green and they could not think of an excuse to rebut Huo Tian.
Just as the atmosphere between the three of them had become suffocating, Ding Chen returned after ending the call with a strange expression on his face.
When he spoke, his tone was also filled with uncertainty. “Tiantian, your mother said that she already knows what to do about the 20 million yuan debt and has already thought of a solution. She told you not to worry.”
Huo Tian was confused. “But Mom only has a tailor shop. Where will she get the 20 million yuan from?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDing Chen looked conflicted. He seemed to want to say something, but he could not say it.
In the end, Ding Chen could only sigh and say, “You can ask your mother about this later. Your uncle doesn’t know either.”
Huo Tian soon knew how her mother was going to raise the 20 million yuan. She received a call from Si Huan.
Si Huan’s voice was very calm on the phone as if nothing could stump him. “Huo Tian, I’m on the way to your house now. I have a check with me that can repay the 20 million yuan you owe the Huo Family. Tell Uncle and Auntie Huo to wait for me at your house. I’ll be right there.”
After Huo Tian passed on Si Huan’s message, she muttered to herself with a puzzled expression, “So Mom’s method was to ask Si Huan for this money too. Why didn’t she let me ask Si Huan for it directly?”
Ding Chen slapped Huo Tian on the back of her head unhappily. “What do you know, you silly girl? Your mother has reached some kind of deal with Si Huan. She’s hiding many secrets from you!”
Ding Chen had deliberately held back his force to be very light, so Huo Tian did not feel any pain. She rubbed the back of her head symbolically and looked at Ding Chen with a sideways glance.
She said unhappily, “Uncle still has the cheek to criticize me? Mom didn’t tell you everything either, right?”
Ding Chen’s thoughts were exposed and he looked unnatural. “Your mother forgot. She’s not intentionally hiding it from me!”
Huo Tian snorted lightly and did not show Ding Chen any mercy. She exposed him directly and said, “That’s not the case. Mom is afraid that Uncle will not be able to control his mouth and tell others about the family matters, so she hid it from you. Even if you’re an adult, we get the same treatment from Mom!”
Ding Chen was so angry that he grimaced and raised his hand. However, he could not bear to hit her, so in the end, he could only vent his anger and rub Huo Tian’s short hair. “You brat, save your uncle some face!”
Mr. and Mrs. Huo did not want to stay in the Ding Family at all to see the uncle and niece enjoying themselves. However, considering that Si Huan was almost here, they had to give him some face. They could only endure their anger and continue to wait.
As expected, Si Huan arrived very quickly. Two assistants in suits and leather shoes followed behind him. Huo Tian rarely saw Si Huan act like a rich man, so she found this extremely .
Her gaze lingered on the two assistants for too long. Although she didn’t ask directly, Si Huan could understand Huo Tian’s thoughts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe smiled lightly, turned around, and introduced, “These two are jewelry appraiser experts from the auction house. They’re here to help us.”
Huo Tian did not know what help the jewelry experts could give her, but this was clearly not the time to ask. She greeted the two experts.
She then pulled Si Huan and whispered into his ear, “Uncle said that Mom made a deal with you. What does he mean? I don’t really understand…”
Si Huan didn’t answer directly but kept her in suspense. “Don’t be anxious. You’ll find out later.”
When Ding Chen saw that Si Huan and the two so-called experts had arrived, he stood up and said, “The item is in my sister’s room. I’ll go get it for you.”
Not long later, he brought out a box from Ding Rong’s room.
It was an ordinary-looking jewelry box. In fact, because it had been preserved for too long, the color of the red velvet box had become a little dim.
Ding Chen handed this box to one of the jewelry appraisal experts that Si Huan had brought. The jewelry appraisal expert carefully opened the lid of the jewelry box, revealing a jade pendant that was as fair and translucent as a young girl’s skin.
This jade pendant was the size of a baby’s fist. It was completely white without any traces of impurities. The moment it was revealed in front of everyone, they could almost see the jade pendant glowing.
Among the people present, Mr. and Mrs. Huo and Si Huan were used to seeing good things, but they were also shocked by this extraordinary jade pendant and temporarily lost their ability to speak.
