Chapter 65: The Bet (Part 2)

  Lin Tian's face revealed a helpless expression, saying: "Why must you force me to accept your son?!" The calmer Lin Tian appeared on the surface, the more Lin Wei was convinced that Lin Tian was afraid and didn't dare to gamble. He snorted: "A real man should accept it, and we'll add another condition - whoever loses can't have any ideas about Zhou Yao again!" "I know my gift is worth at least ten times more than yours, but you still want to gamble with me? I'd be winning unfairly!" Lin Tian shook his head. "It doesn't matter, even if you know, I'll still gamble!" Lin Wei sneered coldly. A person who didn't have enough clothes on their body to add up to 200 yuan, how could they possibly give a gift worth $10,800? Lin Wei wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death! $10,800 converted to RMB would be around 600,000-700,000 yuan. An ordinary person would have difficulty taking out that much money at once, let alone giving it as a gift!

  "Are you sure you want to bet with me?" Lin Tian asked. "Yes, stop nagging!"

  Lin Tian Dao: "What if we break the agreement?" Lin Wei pointed to the jade in his hand: "If we break the agreement, we have to compensate the other party with ten times the value of the gift. Everyone here is a witness. This piece of jade is worth $1.08 million US dollars. If you don't want to call me 'Grandfather' three times, you can just pay me $10.8 million US dollars. However, I think calling me 'Grandfather' three times is still worth $10.8 million US dollars."

  "Lin Tian, don't gamble with him!" Zhou Yao said anxiously.

  "Zhou Yao, bring out the gift Lin Tian sent you. I want to see what kind of rare treasure he gave you!" Lin Wei said. Zhou Yao looked at Lin Tian and saw him nodding slightly. She hesitated for a moment before taking out the small wooden box from her pocket that Lin Tian had given her. The small wooden box hadn't been opened yet, as it was tied all around with a thin colorful ribbon, which was still intact on top of it.

  When he saw the small wooden box, Lin Wei was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing: "Haha, Lin Tian, is this really the gift you gave to Zhou Yao? The value of this box is quite high, I'm afraid it's not just ten bucks?!""I think it's less than ten bucks," said Lin Shao. "A box like this is obviously bought from a street stall, and at a discounted price, I reckon it can be had for three or four bucks!" As soon as he spoke, many people burst out laughing.

  Wei Feng was getting anxious, seeing Lin Tian still standing there without any expression. A thought flashed through his mind: could the things inside that box be really precious?! The more he thought about Lin Tian's mysteriousness, the more he felt it was possible. His raised heart slowly calmed down!

  "Hey, what are you so proud of now? The box hasn't even been opened yet. Maybe the things inside are precious, who knows!" Nan Gong Yu'er said angrily, unable to bear Lin Wei's smug expression.

  Lin Wei stopped laughing: "Then open it, I want to see what kind of rare treasure can be inside a box that costs less than ten bucks!" "Young Master Lin, I think you're just waiting for someone to call you 'grandpa' three times. The things inside this ten-buck box, at most, are worth no more than a hundred bucks. A hundred bucks is not even one-thousandth of the value of your gift!"

  "Lin Tian——" Zhou Yao said hesitantly, although she knew Lin Tian was not simple and had a lot of money, but she didn't have much confidence that Lin Tian would give her an extremely good gift. "Zhou Yao, open it, I hope you'll like it. As I said, don't refuse!" Lin Tian smiled and said.

  Perhaps it was Lin Tian's smile that gave Zhou Yao the strength, Zhou Yao nodded slightly and trembled as she opened the small wooden box. "Open it!" Lin Wei exclaimed excitedly, dozens of pairs of eyes were fixed on the small wooden box in Zhou Yao's hand!

  With a silent prayer, Zhou Yao slowly opened the lid of the small wooden box, and two faint blue rays of light jumped out from inside. Two heart-shaped diamonds that were almost identical, made with luxurious dynamic force, instantly attracted everyone's attention to the pair of earrings inside the wooden box!

  "My goodness, I'm not seeing things, are those diamonds? And they're extremely valuable blue diamonds, a pair of heart-shaped earrings made from two identical ones!" someone in the crowd exclaimed. Zhou Ya stared blankly at the earrings, not thinking about their value, but her mind kept repeating one sentence: So he didn't just buy it casually!

  Lin Wei's eyes widened in disbelief, "Impossible, this can't be true, it must be fake! Blue diamonds are so rare and precious, there may not even be two identical ones in the world, let alone heart-shaped ones. It must be a man-made imitation!"

  Among the crowd, there are obviously many people who think like Lin Wei. They were all attracted by that pair of earrings, men and women alike, but especially the ladies!

  Qin Ke was also shocked, she had guessed that the things in Lin Tian's box might be valuable, but she didn't expect it to be a pair of heart-shaped blue diamond earrings. The two blue diamonds were not small, Qin Ke roughly estimated that they were at least 5 carats each, worth around $5 million. The value of the heart-shaped blue diamonds was absolutely over $8 million. A pair of earrings made from two heart-shaped blue diamonds would be worth no less than $20 million. This was Qin Ke's instant judgment! She had never thought that the blue diamond could be fake, since Lin Tian took it out, there was no reason for it to be fake. Moreover, she clearly knew that just a few days ago, Lin Tian had auctioned off a large diamond at an auction!

  There was a moment of silence in the hall.

  "Ah, what a beautiful earring, Yao Jie, I'm so envious of you!" Nan Gong Wan Er said, reaching out to take an earring. "Yao Jie, let me see, no problem right? Blue diamond, it's really blue diamond, so beautiful." "Wan Er, don't lose it, or else, even selling you won't make up for it haha!" Qin Ke laughed and said.

  Nangong Yu'er wrinkled her nose: "What's the matter, I'm not even worth a pair of small earrings?! Qin sister, among the businesses you're in charge of, there's one that's jewelry, right? Tell me, how much is this pair of earrings worth?!"

  "Their original value is around 20 million US dollars. At an auction, it wouldn't be surprising if they sold for 30-40 million US dollars, because this pair of earrings is estimated to be the only one in the world!" Qin Ke said. As soon as she spoke, many people in the hall who didn't believe her instantly believed her. Qin Ke had entered the business world at the age of 16 and her insight was not comparable to ordinary people!

  As soon as she heard that the earrings were worth over $20 million, Zhou Yao was shocked and quickly said: "Lin Tian, this is too precious!" Lin Tian blinked his eyes and smiled: "You promised to accept it!" "But how can I accept such an expensive gift from you?!"

  In Lin Tian's mind, Xiao Ling said loudly: "Stupid master, such an expensive gift for ordinary friends is too much, hurry up and confess to Zhou Yao!" "Confess? But I don't want to get caught up in emotional turmoil now, my main focus should still be on improving my strength!"

  "Foolish fool, while improving your strength is important, you can't neglect other things too! The old master let you climb up step by step not only to lay the foundation but also because he wanted you to enjoy life. He often said that I already have enough strength, but I've lost happiness, what a loss! Since you've already freed your mind, why are you still worrying about the future?"

  Lin Tianxin took a step forward, embracing Zhou Ya in his arms and kissing her deeply on those tempting red lips. After a long time, their lips parted. "Ya'er, will you be my girlfriend? I'll take good care of you!" Zhou Ya's face was flushed, her body softened, if not for Lin Tian holding her, she might have fallen to the ground: "I...I..."

  "Yao sister, what are you still considering? Just agree to it! Wow, how romantic! But Lin Tian, you actually forced a kiss on Yao sister, I'll settle the score with you later!" Nan Gong Wan Er exclaimed.

  (Brothers, it will be on shelves the day after tomorrow. Even if I'm lying in bed, you must get up for me, O (∩ _ ∩) O haha ~ )
