Chapter 315 Son of Destiny
If it were anyone else, Jiang Ning might actually have had such a thought.

But if you think about Su Qingyue and Chen Wei’s identities carefully, doing this will only please neither side and offend both.

In the end, he would have to take the blame himself, which he couldn't afford at his age.

They could only watch helplessly as Chen Wei and Su Qingyue left.

"Old Jiang, now that we've given them this bracelet, how are we going to explain this to the museum?" a young team member asked, leaning closer.

"Confess? Confess what? What bracelet? I don't understand what you're talking about. What bracelet is there?" Jiang Ning's convincing acting left the junior team members speechless.

However, it was thanks to Jiang Ning's poor acting skills that the junior team member was able to instantly understand what he wanted to say. He raised his hand, slapped his forehead, and said, "Oh dear, look at my memory. There's no bracelet here. It's too hot, I'm all confused. Old Jiang, I'm going to wash my face and clear my head."

"Go ahead, go ahead," Jiang Ning waved his hand and agreed.

"..." Hearing the conversation between the two, the others stopped talking and decided it wasn't worth offending Jiang Ning over such a matter.

Turn a blind eye and pretend you don't see it.

Even if someone were to expose this, they wouldn't be rewarded, because few leaders like to tattle on their employees. Today it might be someone else, but tomorrow it could very well be them.

Even if Jiang Ning is punished, he will be treated leniently considering his past achievements. And if they try to settle scores later…

On the way back to Tiandi Film City.

"Sister, since these bracelets are so valuable, why don't you wear them?" Chen Wei said, handing over a pair of jade bracelets.

"No." Su Qingyue shook her head and did not reach out to take it.

"Why? Didn't they say it's priceless but unavailable?" Chen Wei didn't understand.

“How can you wear things belonging to the dead on a living person? That’s so unlucky! I’m afraid it will shorten my lifespan,” Su Qingyue said logically.

She hasn't had enough of life with her younger brother yet, and she has to eliminate any negative factors that could potentially affect her future.

"That makes sense." Chen Wei nodded, agreeing with Su Qingyue's assessment.

The idea of ​​a living person wearing burial items meant for the dead is rather unsettling.

What's more, it's a jade bracelet like this, which has been lying in a tomb with bones for hundreds or thousands of years.
"Then what should we do?" Chen Wei asked Su Qingyue, unable to come up with any good ideas for the moment.

In the beginning, besides wanting to teach Jiang Ning and the others a lesson, I also wanted to give these jade bracelets to Su Qingyue as a gift.

Chen Wei never expected Su Qingyue to refuse, and it's understandable that he would be so flustered after being rejected.

"You can stay."

"I originally intended to give it to my sister as a gift. What would I, a grown man, do with something like this?" Chen Wei thought about it and decided against it.

“Then… we can send it to an auction house,” Su Qingyue suggested.

"An auction house?" Chen Wei thought about it carefully and realized that there seemed to be no other suitable solution, so he nodded in response, "Okay, I'll listen to you, sister."

"I'll make an appointment and go over to find out what the going rate is after things are settled with the film crew," Chen Wei said, explaining his plan.

“Okay, I’ll go with you,” Su Qingyue agreed.

Back at Tiandi Film City.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Chen, there was a problem with the set setup today, so you won't be filming any scenes. It's quite hot here, so you might as well go back and cool off." Wu Chun gave Chen Wei an unexpected surprise.

"Okay." Chen Wei couldn't be happier to do that and sell the jade bracelet at the auction house as soon as possible so that he wouldn't keep worrying about it.

"The timing, the location, and the people are all on your side."

"Please call me the Chosen One," Chen Wei said smugly, making a gesture.

"Alright, alright, chosen one, please fasten your seatbelt." Su Qingyue really couldn't do anything with him.

"The chosen one doesn't need a seatbelt." Chen Wei said this, but his body language betrayed him as he fastened his seatbelt.

……

The two arrived at the auction house while chatting and laughing.

Bang. He got out of the car, closed the door, and looked up at the auction city sign.

Red Leaf Auction City.

Chen Wei remembered that he seemed to have heard this name somewhere before.

Where is it?
His memory is somewhat confused now...

correct!

Leng Qianqian!
After much thought, Chen Wei finally remembered that this was the Leng family's auction house.

I didn't expect there would be a branch in Jiangcheng.

"What's wrong?" Su Qingyue asked when she saw Chen Wei stop in his tracks.

"It's nothing." Chen Wei shook his head, feeling there was no need to clarify the relationship; whether he said it or not was unimportant.

The most urgent task right now is to have an appraiser determine the exact value of this pair of jade bracelets.

"Excuse me, which room is Lu Dong in?" This auction house is quite large, and Chen Wei didn't want to wander around like a headless fly, so he went straight to a waiter and asked.

"For the renowned appraiser Lu, just go straight ahead, turn right, and it's the second room," the waiter pointed out.

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome."

……

dong dong dong.

Knock on the door.

"Come in." A voice quickly responded from behind the door.

Chen Wei pushed open the door and walked in, his gaze meeting Lu Dong's. The man was squinting and looking in their direction.

He looked somewhat shifty-eyed, but Chen Wei guessed he was probably nearsighted.

"Are you Mr. Chen, the one who made an appointment with me just now?" Lu Dong confirmed.

“Yes, that’s me,” Chen Wei replied.

"Okay, what kind of antique is it? Show it to me so I can appraise it." Lu Dong stretched out his hands.

Chen Wei told Su Qingyue to choose a seat, while he walked up to Lu Dong and handed him a pair of jade bracelets.

This old guy is so nearsighted, yet he doesn't wear glasses. Chen Wei is really worried about whether he can see clearly.

Just as I was thinking this, I saw Lu Dong open the wooden drawer next to him, take out a professional magnifying glass, and begin to examine the two pairs of jade bracelets carefully.

Oh, so you were prepared all along.

Seeing this, Chen Wei immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems we don't need to change the player.

Gently putting down the magnifying glass and the jade bracelet, Lu Dong shook his head and sighed, "What a waste of my time."

Hearing him say that, Chen Wei was a little confused and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"What else could it mean? You brought two fake jades and wasted my time. Do you know how busy I am?" Lu Dong originally had urgent business to attend to, but he happened to have an appointment with Chen Wei and couldn't refuse.

If these were genuine, it would be fine, but they are fake. Because of a pair of fakes, Lu Dong's important time was wasted, so he naturally felt unhappy.

"Fake goods?" Upon hearing these two words, Chen Wei and Su Qingyue exchanged a glance and couldn't help but smile faintly.

Then her gaze returned to Lu Dong. "Are you sure?"
