Chapter 34 "Surprise" and "Delight"

  Zhang Zhonglin was furious and scolded loudly. Before Zhou Ming and others could react, a soft "ah" suddenly came from upstairs.

  "What's going on?"

  "Who is downstairs?"

  ……

  Two short sentences, two people asked at the same time, and this also made Ren Liheng and Ren Lijuan change their faces. How could they not hear that voice? The second question was indeed asked by Ren Zhongshan.

  The two of them had known that Ren Zhongshan was on the third floor, today is his birthday, and he naturally brought an old friend to see his private collection, who is also a well-known collector in Xinkai.

  But unexpectedly, the quarrel on the second floor caught the attention of those upstairs.

  Just as the two were hesitating, they heard another set of footsteps coming down the stairs.

  "It's all your good deeds." It has come down, Ren Lijuan gave Ren Liheng a white eye. Originally, she was thinking of waiting for the birthday banquet to start before taking out the chair to give Grandpa a surprise, but it seems that this matter may be ruined now.

  Ren Liheng was also helpless and glared at Zhang Zhonglin, which made Zhang Zhonglin so scared that his soul flew away. Wasn't he just acknowledging that he had gotten excited earlier? But mainly because he was afraid of losing face in front of the Ren family members, who would have thought that he would end up offending Ren Liheng instead?

  At the thought of this, Zhang Zhonglin suddenly looked at Zhou Ming with a hostile gaze. It's all because of this fool, if it wasn't for him, how would he have provoked Ren Liheng's anger?

  It's too late for anything now.

  The next moment, Ren Lijuan, Ren Liheng and Meng Ru all quickly walked out of the room. Almost at the same time, two old men came down from the third floor staircase. The first one was tall and had a dignified face with a head full of thick black hair without any white hairs, it was Ren Zhongshan.

  At this moment, Ren Zhongshan was still playing with a small green gourd-like object about 10 cm high in his hand, which could be grasped with one hand and looked extremely delicate.

  By his side walked an elderly man with a head of white hair and wearing a pair of glasses with floral frames.

  "It's okay, Grandpa, it's just a few of my friends playing inside."

  When she saw Ren Zhongshan approaching, Ren Lijuan immediately smiled and stepped forward, standing in front of Ren Zhongshan with a hint that she didn't want him to come closer. Behind her, Ren Liheng also quickly walked up with a smile, saying it was just a small matter, nothing serious.

  "You two little ones still want to play tricks on me? Hey, Lijuan, what are you hiding in your room?" The grandson and granddaughter's little thoughts were not difficult for Ren Zhongshan to see through. He seemed to be in a good mood now, and he joked as he strode past them, heading straight for the room.

  "Look at the old man, it seems that your precious granddaughter doesn't want to let you pass now." The old man beside him also burst out laughing and walked past Rèn Lìjuān's side.

  "It's all your fault." As expected, the soup was spilled. Ren Zhongshan had already walked to the door and would naturally see the chair. Ren Lijuan glared at Ren Liheng again, if it wasn't for him insisting on coming over to take a look, she wouldn't have been able to avoid this unexpected situation. Fortunately, she had wrapped up the chair in the company earlier and quietly moved it back home in the middle of the night, but unexpectedly still couldn't deliver it at the most festive moment.

  But just as Ren Lijuan was feeling extremely depressed, Ren Zhongshan, who had just walked to the door of the room, suddenly slowed down his footsteps and then suddenly quickened his pace.

  The chair, at this time in Ren Lijuan's house, the most eye-catching is undoubtedly that yellow rosewood armchair. As for Zhang Zhonglin and Zhou Ming who were beside the armchair, they were ignored by him.

  It is undeniable that a Huanghuali armchair has considerable appeal for collectors.

  At least at this moment, everyone's attention was drawn to that chair.

  "Huanghua pear armchair? Looks pretty good."

  With quick steps and a joyful voice, Ren Zhongshan soon arrived in front of the chair and bowed down. However, it was only after he spoke that his original joy suddenly dissipated, replaced by some confusion.

  There's something wrong with this chair!

  At first glance, it looked good, but as he walked closer to take a look, he suddenly felt something strange about it, as if the whole chair was missing something, and it suddenly reminded him of a somewhat fuzzy past event.

  It seems he has seen this chair before.

  Another old man also walked over at this time, and after seeing the chair, he was slightly surprised, but soon walked forward, squatted down with Ren Zhongshan to examine the chair.

  "It's not too bad, it seems Old Master Ren is still very excited."

  At this moment, Zhang Zhonglin had already made way for Ren Chongshan when he came over, so he couldn't see Ren Chongshan's face and expression at all, but only heard the previous sentence that was quite open-minded.

  The joyful tone in his words suddenly relaxed his tense nerves a lot.

  Jing Lijuan had said more than once that she would only give the chair to Ren Zhongshan after the birthday banquet started, but now because he exposed it ahead of time, if Jing Lijuan blamed him for this matter, he would have no one to blame but himself.

  So just now he was very nervous, but now it's finally a bit better. Even if things didn't develop exactly as Ren Lijuan had expected, as long as Ren Zhongshan can cheer up, then it's roughly okay.

  "Grandpa, I was going to give it to you after the birthday banquet started, but you didn't even give me a chance." Ren Li Juan quickly followed up from behind, standing behind Ren Zhong Shan and saying somewhat irritably.

  The old man is 70 years old, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime event. The surprise she had carefully prepared was exposed just before the important moment arrived, which was really frustrating. Now it's useless to say anything, she can only hope that this chair will really be liked by the old man. "What do you think of this chair?"

  As Ren Lijuan spoke, Zhang Zhonglin and Ren Liheng on one side also became somewhat tense.

  Although they can confirm that this chair is genuine, the key is still whether the old man likes it or not, and at this time, Ren's attitude is naturally very tense.

  In the midst of tension, Ren Zhongshan suddenly stood up from squatting down to look at the chair and burst out laughing, "Good! Good! Good!"

  Three good words in a row, Ren Lijuan and Zhang Zhonglin were overjoyed.

  He smiled and said it was good. Isn't this saying that the old man is very satisfied with this chair? Then even if the time to send out this chair wasn't perfect, it's worth it.

  Zhang Zhonglin was even more pleased to glare at Zhou Mingluo again, this idiot, did you hear that? Old Master Ren has already agreed, how could it be fake? Now he simply felt sorry for Zhou Mingluo, this guy was so stupid that he couldn't be saved.

  However, the three people in ecstasy didn't notice at all that Ren Zhongshan's face had turned somewhat green as he stood with his back to them.

  He was laughing, but it was an angry laugh.

  He repeatedly said "good" three times, and was also on the verge of collapse from anger.

  Even if Ren Li Juan bought a fake antique, he would still feel suffocated, but not too out of control. The key is that he finally remembered where he had seen this familiar-looking chair before - it was in his own home.

  A year ago, in this very villa, the guy who made this fake chair directly sent the chair over to deceive him.

  At that time, he quickly saw through the fake, but at the beginning, he was very elegant and clearly told the other party that this chair was made very realistic, but it lacked a sense of aura, and it didn't feel right.

  What a shame that scoundrel was so tactless, and even went so far as to mock him with cold ridicule, saying his words were too absurd.

  He was furious at that time and almost pointed at the other person's nose, saying whoever buys this chair in the future is blind.

  But he never expected that this chair would be bought back by his own granddaughter for his birthday.

  This is also disgusting.

  This was just as the middle-aged owner of the chair shop had expected, Ren Lijuan bought this chair back to give it to Ren Zhongshan as a gift, and he would definitely be surprised, but not necessarily happy.
