Chapter 1243 - 1243 Slap in the Face

1243 Slap in the Face

No matter how slow Chu Yaowei was, he knew something was wrong.

Not only Chu Yaowei but the others in the Chu clan also noticed something was wrong. There must be something everyone else knew that only he did not. Plus, Chu Yunfan came from his household, so he felt like he was left in the dark.

However, his guess was not entirely correct. Not everyone knew about it. After the battle between Chu Yunfan and Wan Huang shocked the city, and significant forces sent forth their spies.

Although Chu Yunfan lived in seclusion, he was not isolated from the world. In addition, he had never hidden his ident.i.ty. It was only a matter of time before his ident.i.ty was exposed. It would only take a few days.

Kong Buyi, Situ Ye, and Marquis Anguo had only taken the initiative. For some reason, they first knew of Chu Yunfans existence and then learned of his battle with Wan Huang.

They were just one step ahead of the others.

However, this feeling of everyone else knowing everything and not him felt terrible. Chu Yaowei looked at Chu Yunfan chatting happily with everyone, and his eyes flashed with disbelief.

What else does he have that I dont know about?

Compared to the Chu clans complicated thoughts, the old madams thoughts were much more straightforward. She knew everyone was here for Chu Yunfan, and her birthday was just an excuse.

However, it did not matter. At this time, she only had one goalto make herself look good. Chu Yunfan had achieved that, which was something even Marquis Zhongxin, her eldest son, had failed to do.

D*mn you, Chu Yunfan. Chang Shenghong gritted his teeth hatefully.

Suddenly, he stood up and glared at Chu Yunfan. Dont think you can hide and use other people as cover. Ive been very patient with you. So, what gift did you bring?

The pair once again attracted everyones attention. A few big shots had come earlier, distracting everyone. Only now did they remember the conflict between the two.

Chang Shenghong is so persistent. Someone sighed.

However, most knew Chang Shenghong could hardly compare to Chu Yunfan. Many knew these big shots had come for Chu Yunfan, but some were unsure why the big shots had come in such a grand manner.

Still, Chu Yunfan was far more awe-inspiring than Chang Shenghong. Kong Buyi, Situ Ye, Marquis Anguo, and the others had given their attention to Chu Yunfan. Since they knew his power before others, they wanted to know what kind of congratulatory gift Chu Yunfan could afford.

Why are you so persistent? Just give up already! Chu Hongcai said fiercely.

Meanwhile, Chu Haoyu did not say much. These big shots came, making him feel his horizons broadening. After all, it was rare to see any of these influential people.

Seeing them would be difficult even if he became Marquis Zhongxins heir. He would only be on equal footing with these people if he became the next Marquis Zhongxin. However, these big shots wanted to please Chu Yunfan, making him feel like Chu Yunfan was the real deal.

It made Chu Haoyu think he had been too narrow-minded when he fought so hard to become Marquis Zhongxins heir. Although Chu Yunfan was not the heir, he was more impressive than the latter. His prestige came from himself, not from the t.i.tle of Marquis Zhongxins heir.

Chu Yunfan smiled and did not take Chang Shenghongs words to heart. He said indifferently, Since he wants to see it, Ill oblige. How dare he jump ahead with a gift worth a measly three million low-grade spirit stones? Hes overestimating himself.

Everyone was astounded when they heard this. They did not know where Chu Yunfans confidence came from. Three million low-grade spirit stones were not as simple as Chu Yunfan said.

This was a big deal, and they were curious about what he had prepared to dare disregard this gift worth three million low-grade spirit stones.

Foolis.h.!.+ Chang Shenghong had also heard Chu Yunfans words but felt Chu Yunfan was simply stubborn.

Even now, hes still pretending.

Chu Yunfan smiled faintly and said, Im not that extravagant. My only gift to the matriarch to congratulate her on her birthday is a bottle of pills.

He flipped his palm, and a bottle of pills appeared in his hand. Then he handed it to the matriarch.

This is perfect! Youre so thoughtful! The matriarch was thrilled. She seemed to have thought of something and quickly said, Hurry up and put this aside!

Chang Shenhong immediately became anxious when he saw the old madam putting the gift aside without looking at it closely. He thought the old madam was trying to save Chu Yunfans reputation.

Even she doesnt think highly of him. No matter how expensive a bottle of pills is, it cant compare to my gifts.

Wait a minute. Chu Yunfan, since you said the pill is much better than the three million low-grade spirit stones that Duke Ning gave, Id like to see what kind of pills they are! Chang Shenghong thundered, stopping the matriarch from putting the item away.

The matriarch looked displeased. She thought Chang Shenghong was here to ruin her reputation.

My grandnephew doesnt know whats good for him. He wants to ruin my birthday banquet. Why is he doing this?!

Chu Yaowei was also displeased. He looked at Chang Shenghong and said, Theres no difference in worth as long as its a birthday gift.

This is all because of Chu Yunfan! This d*mn Chu Yunfan!

Since its a birthday gift, theres no need to hide it from everyone. Its okay to ask, right? Or are you afraid to answer, Chu Yunfan? Chang Shenghongs voice became increasingly stern as his voice got louder.

Since you want to be embarra.s.sed so badly, Ill fulfill your wish, Chu Yunfan stepped forward and continued, Theres nothing to hide. This bottle contains five Longevity Pills. Each Longevity Pill can extend ones life by twenty years. I made them for the matriarch to wish her good fortune and longevity.

An uproar immediately followed.
