Chapter 4 The same painting
There was a handsome and expensively dressed boy standing at the door.
He smiled slightly.
"Auntie, you are such a noble person who forgets things. I am Wang Zhichao. I haven't seen you for many years, and you look much better."
Hearing this, Chu Lan's cold face suddenly trembled with laughter as she recognized the handsome boy opposite.
"It turns out to be Xiao Chao. I haven't seen you for so many years. I heard you went abroad. Come in quickly."
"Why don't you tell me earlier so I can get ready for lunch?" Chu Lan took Wang Zhichao's arm and came to the sofa with a smile.
"No need to bother, Auntie, I just got off the plane this morning and came over after taking care of some things."
"Are you still leaving when you return to China this time?" Chu Lan asked.
"I won't leave. My parents are getting older and I am the only child in the family. I need to take over many things in the company."
"I haven't seen Ruoxue for a long time. Is she okay?"
Wang Zhichao asked with a smile.
Three years ago, Wang Zhichao was recommended by his family to study abroad for graduate school at a cost of millions.
After we met again, I felt that his whole demeanor and words had changed a lot.
"It's upstairs, Ruoxue, someone is coming!" Chu Lan shouted with a loud voice.
Su Ruoxue on the second floor opened the door and took an impatient look.
When she saw Wang Zhichao, she was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand to say hello, and forced a smile: "Hello."
Wang Zhichao stood up and couldn't help but let his eyes wander over Su Ruoxue's body.
We haven't seen each other for three years. Compared to then, Su Ruoxue is a little more sexy, and her whole person has an otherworldly beauty.
"Ruoxue, I haven't seen you for a long time. When I returned to China this time, I brought you a gift specially."
Wang Zhichao took out a diamond ring from the bag on the side. Under the light, the goose egg-sized diamond shone brightly.
One look at it and you can tell it's worth a lot.
Chu Lan's eyes widened.
No woman can resist the temptation brought to her by a diamond ring.
"Come down, I'll bring it to you."
When Wang Zhichao saw that Su Ruoxue had not moved for a long time, he urged her.
"Ahem..." At this time, Su Guoqiang, who had been silent on the sofa, coughed twice.
"Xiaochao, you are still thinking of Ruoxue when you come back this time. My uncle is very happy and touched."
"But now that Ruoxue is married, forget about the diamond ring."
"It's not good to spread the word."
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhichao's eyes became dull, his right hand trembled, and the diamond ring fell to the ground.
"Crack!"
"Ouch, what if such a good diamond ring is broken?" Chu Lan rushed forward to pick up the diamond ring from the ground and frantically wiped it on her clothes, for fear that the ring would be scratched.
After confirming that it was okay, she put it quietly into her pocket.
"Uncle, are you telling the truth? When did Ruoxue get married?" Wang Zhichao asked in disbelief with a corner of his mouth twitching.
"I just got the marriage certificate this morning." Su Guoqiang took out the marriage certificate from the drawer and put it on the table, fearing that Wang Zhichao would not die.
When he saw the red marriage certificate in front of him, Wang Zhichao instantly felt a basin of ice water poured down from his head, and his whole body became cold.
When he returned to China this time, one was to take care of his family's property, and the other was to marry Su Ruoxue.
Su Ruoxue, known as one of the four beauties in the Blue Ocean, is the dream lover that many men are looking forward to.
"Xiaochao, don't pay attention to him. Ruoxue was forced to marry this labor prisoner. They have no emotional basis at all." Chu Lan rolled her eyes and stepped forward to explain crazily.
One is a rich man-in-law, and the other is a reform-through-labor prisoner who has just been released from prison.
Even a fool knows to choose the former.
After hearing the cause and effect of the incident, Wang Zhichao's originally depressed face changed for the better.
"So that's it, let me tell you, how could Ruoxue's vision become so bad." Wang Zhichao stretched out with a smile on his face.
"Ruoxue, Xiaochao came back specifically for you this time. Let's go have dinner tonight." Chu Lan said to Su Ruoxue on the second floor.
"No, I have an appointment tonight." After saying that, Su Ruoxue returned to the room without looking back.
"This kid!" Chu Lan rolled her eyes and couldn't help but complain.
"Auntie, it's okay. Ruoxue and I haven't seen each other for so long, so it's normal to be a little estranged." Wang Zhichao replied.
"Ding dong."
At this time, the doorbell rang again.
Chu Lan stepped forward and opened the door. When she saw it was Ye Chen, her smiling face instantly turned into a cold look.
"What are you here for?"
"Re-education through labor prisoners are not welcome in our family. They are in bad luck." Chu Lan waved her hand in disgust.
"Chu Lan, let Xiaoye come in!" Su Guoqiang stood up and shouted.
Chu Lan reluctantly let Ye Chen in.
After entering the door, Wang Zhichao's eyes wandered around Ye Chen's body.
The clothes were extremely tacky, and it looked like they were bought from a street stall. I really didn’t know what Su Ruoxue liked about him.
"Are you Ye Chen?" Wang Zhichao's eyes flashed with sarcasm.
Ye Chen nodded.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Wang Zhichao. I just finished my master's degree in a beautiful country. This time I am coming back to take over my family's company." Wang Zhichao introduced himself with a proud look on his face.
Ye Chen gave him a flat look: "What does it have to do with me?"
This unconcerned look made Wang Zhichao angry and got in.
"I came back this time just to marry Ruoxue. I advise you to appreciate her and leave her as soon as possible."
"You are just a reform-through-labor prisoner who has been released from prison. Are you worthy of Ruoxue? Prisoners like you are a cancer and waste in society."
"Pah!" The next second, Ye Chen slapped Wang Zhichao on the face.
His eyes were cold: "You have a really dirty mouth, and your quality after studying abroad needs to be improved."
At this scene, Chu Lan was so angry that she almost jumped to her feet.
"Re-education through labor prisoner, how dare you hit someone! Believe it or not, I'll call the police!"
Wang Zhichao, who was slapped, was about to fight back immediately, but when he saw Chu Lan and Su Guoqiang present, he endured it.
"It's okay, auntie. People like this who haven't received higher education can use their fists and kicks to act like heroes."
He rubbed his sore cheek.
Ye Chen ignored him and sat down on the sofa, crossing his legs.
"Stand up, who told you to sit down!" Chu Lan pointed at Ye Chen's nose and shouted.
"Auntie, this kind of person is not worthy of being angry with him."
"By the way, I remember that my uncle likes antiques. This painting is a picture of Luo Shen that I asked a friend to buy at an auction."
Wang Zhichao took out a painting from his bag.
After seeing this thing, Su Guoqiang's eyes shone, but he still maintained his rationality.
"Xiaochao, it's enough for you to have this heart. Uncle has a lot of these things at home."
The hand that takes someone is short, and the mouth that eats someone is short.
Su Guoqiang knows this truth well.
If he accepted this painting in a moment of obsession today, he might cause some trouble in the future.
But Chu Lan didn't think so. She took the painting over with a smile and inspected it for a few times.
Then I had some doubts.
"Strange, why is your painting the same as the one Ye Chen sent?"
