74 -074: Don’t Speak Without Understanding
“What method?” Zhao Luna felt somewhat uncertain.
Wang Yukun didn’t speak but took out a checkbook from his pocket, casually filled in an amount, and then flamboyantly signed his name.
“Kid, here’s a million, take the money and scram!”
Wang Yukun tore off the check and slapped it contemptuously onto Chen Xuan’s chest.
Zhao Luna finally realized what Wang Yukun’s so-called method was—he simply wanted to squash the issue with money!
Zhao Luna immediately began to worry.
After all, a million was definitely not a small sum for the average person, and she was genuinely concerned that Chen Xuan might betray her for that million.
Unexpectedly, faced with Wang Yukun’s million, Chen Xuan only looked indifferent, showing no reaction whatsoever.
“Oh, I didn’t expect you to be so greedy.
What, is a million not enough for you?
Fine, I’ll add another million for you!”
Wang Yukun said, signing another million-dollar check, and smacked it heavily on Chen Xuan’s chest.
“As long as you admit you’re a fake and roll out of here immediately, these two million are all yours!”
Wang Yukun wore a look of disdain, as if he was certain that Chen Xuan would be tempted by the money.
But to his surprise, Chen Xuan, without a word, tore the two-million-dollar check into shreds and threw it directly in his face.
“How about I give you ten million, and you bark like a dog and then crawl out from here?
What do you think?”
Chen Xuan looked at Wang Yukun, neither humble nor arrogant.
“You…” Wang Yukun was so angry his face turned beet red.
Yet Zhao Luna just burst into loud laughter.
Previously, she hadn’t felt much about Chen Xuan.
But now, she found him to be much more interesting than someone like Wang Yukun!
“Fuck, just a loser impersonator.
Do you think I’ll believe you can come up with ten million?
Stop trying to act tough in front of me!” Wang Yukun was obviously beside himself with anger.
Initially, Chen Xuan had no intention of stooping to Wang Yukun’s level because he hadn’t planned on pretending to be Zhao Luna’s boyfriend.
But from the very start, Wang Yukun had been sarcastic and condescending toward him, even using money to humiliate him, which really irked Chen Xuan.
Since he was already upset, Chen Xuan naturally had no reason to let the other party feel comfortable!
Chen Xuan snorted coldly, pregnant with meaning, “Whether I’m an impostor boyfriend or not, at least I wouldn’t use a counterfeit antique to deceive people!”
The moment those words came out, Wang Yukun’s face turned sour.
“Damn it, what are you talking about, who told you my antique is fake!”
Even Uncle Zhao’s expression became serious, “Young man, do you understand antiques?
Know anything about Yuan Dynasty Blue White Porcelain?
If you don’t know, better not speak recklessly!”
Uncle Zhao, being the most well-known antique appraisal expert in Huai City and even in Beijiang, helped the Zhao Family rise to wealth through antiques and join the ranks of Huai City’s four great affluent clans.
Therefore, he has always been extremely serious when it comes to matters of antiques and never allowed anyone to speculate wildly in this field.
Uncle Zhao had already personally appraised the Yuan Dynasty Blue White Octagon Gourd Vase in question, and in terms of craftsmanship and era, it completely matched the art of Yuan Dynasty Blue White, indubitably a rare piece of Yuan Dynasty Blue White treasure!
Yet here was this young man, who was plainly from an ordinary household and evidently had no knowledge about antiques, daring to wildly claim that this treasure was fake.
This was not just a denial of the treasure, but also a rejection of Uncle Zhao himself!
How could Uncle Zhao not be furious!
Wang Yukun also snorted with contempt, “With your family conditions, can you really afford to play with antiques?
Do you have any idea how much this Octagon Gourd Vase is estimated to be worth in the market?
I’m afraid the figure might scare you to death—twenty million!
You’ve probably never seen that much money in your life, yet you dare to spout nonsense in front of me!
Ridiculous!”
Contempt filled Wang Yukun’s face, as in his view, Chen Xuan was so below his level that he probably had never even seen, let alone understood, antiques!
Facing Wang Yukun’s mockery, Chen Xuan just smiled faintly.
“Since you’re so confident, why don’t we make a bet.”
Wang Yukun’s interest was piqued, “Bet what?”
“We’ll bet on the authenticity of this blue white porcelain vase.
If it’s real, I’ll immediately hand Luna over to you, and then get lost from here.
If you lose, you’ll imitate a dog’s bark three times and then get lost.
What do you think?”
Before Wang Yukun could speak, Zhao Luna was already objecting.
“Chen Xuan, you’ve got some nerve, using me as a betting stake.
What do you take me for!”
Before Chen Xuan could apologize, Zhao Luna laughed again, “But making him bark like a dog isn’t a bad idea.
I like it, let’s bet with him!”
Chen Xuan was suddenly speechless, finding it harder and harder to keep up with the thoughts of these young girls.
Seeing Zhao Luna side with Chen Xuan, Wang Yukun felt quite displeased, “We’ll bet!
Who’s afraid!
Just don’t chicken out if you lose, and never come close to Luna again!”
The bet was set, but Zhao Luna seemed a bit troubled.
“It’s easy to talk, but how do we actually verify the authenticity of this vase?”
After all, with antiques like this, it’s very difficult to determine what’s real and what’s fake.

Chen Xuan, however, just smiled confidently.
“Determining its authenticity is easy, just leave it to me.”
No sooner had his words fallen than there was a crisp shattering sound.
Without any warning, Chen Xuan smashed the Octagon Gourd Vase onto the ground, breaking it into pieces!
“Holy shit!
Are you fucking crazy!”
Wang Yukun stared at the shattered fragments of the Yuan Dynasty blue white porcelain on the ground, his eyes nearly popping out of his head.
Zhao Luna was also somewhat dumbfounded.
She hadn’t expected Chen Xuan, who appeared so polite and cultured, to act so recklessly, smashing a vase worth twenty million just like that.
Zhao Boqian felt so pained it was as if his heart was bleeding.
What Zhao Boqian cared about was not the twenty million, but the Yuan blue white porcelain itself!
Since ancient times, intact pieces of Yuan blue white porcelain have been exceedingly rare, each one a precious treasure!
Yet now, one such treasure was destroyed by a clueless youngster, a heinous crime—a great loss to the Antique World!
“Such wanton destruction!
This is simply wanton destruction!”
Zhao Boqian knelt on the ground, wishing he could turn back time to protect this rare treasure.
Chen Xuan, however, just smiled faintly, “Uncle Zhao need not feel heartbroken, take a closer look at this first.”
As he said this, Chen Xuan picked up a piece of the shards and handed it to Zhao Boqian.
Zhao Boqian originally didn’t care much, but in the next moment, when he clearly saw the shard in his hand, he was completely stunned.
“This…
This is…”
