"Yes, I'm not late, am I?"

Li Taiping walked in and said to Tang Wan with a smile.

"You're not late, Mr. Li. I'm already very happy that you can come."

Tang Wan was so happy to see Li Taiping again that even her heart started beating fast.

"Xiao Wan, he's the treasure appraiser you've been dreaming of. I don't think he's that great!"

At this moment, an untimely voice sounded.

Li Taiping looked over and found that it was a woman standing next to Tang Wan. She was good-looking and dressed quite fashionably.

"Du Shuang, don't say that. Mr. Li is very powerful."

Tang Wan said to her friend Du Shuang.

Du Shuang snorted and looked Li Taiping up and down, but could not find anything unusual about Li Taiping.

Tang Wan kept talking about Li Taiping in her ear all day long, which made her look forward to it.

"Miss Tang, this is the birthday gift I prepared for you. I hope you like it."

Li Taiping was not angry because of Du Shuang's words, and gave the birthday gift he had prepared to Tang Wan.

"Give it to me. I want to see what birthday gift you, the 'master', have prepared for Xiaowan."

Before Tang Wan could take Li Taiping's gift, Du Shuang snatched it away.

A tearing sound.

Du Shuang tore open the gift cover, revealing the true appearance of the gift inside.

I saw that in the huge box, there was clearly placed an... inkstone!

"Pfft!"

Du Shuang couldn't help but laughed.

"Master Li, are you kidding me? You actually gave this kind of gift to a girl on her birthday. This is the first time I, Du Shuang, have seen this. You're too much of a straight man!"

Not only Du Shuang, but also the other girls who were celebrating Tang Wan's birthday all covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

Li Taiping touched his nose and said, "I know Miss Tang likes antiques. This inkstone is from the Qing Dynasty, which I found at a bargain at the antique market where I met Miss Tang. It's not worth a lot, probably only about half a million, but it's authentic. If Miss Tang doesn't like it, I can exchange it for another one."

"No thanks, Mr. Li. Thank you for your gift. I like it very much."

When Tang Wan heard that this inkstone was something Li Taiping found at a bargain at the antique market where she met her, her face immediately flushed. She took the inkstone from Du Shuang's hand and rubbed it carefully with her fingers.

The other girls were moved when they heard that this strange inkstone was actually an antique and worth 500,000 yuan.

You have to know that these girls, including Du Shuang, were born in ordinary families.

Five hundred thousand is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for them.

Isn’t this too luxurious?

"It's just... it's just an antique worth half a million dollars. It's nothing special."

Du Shuang snorted, feeling a little sad in her heart, but she still spoke firmly.

"Okay, Mr. Li, Du Shuang, everyone is here, let's start the party!"

Tang Wan put the inkstone away and said to Li Taiping.

Just as he finished speaking, the door of room 302 was suddenly pushed open.

Followed by.

A group of men walked in from outside.

The person in the lead was a man with a frivolous expression and a mole at the corner of his eyebrow.

"Xiao Wan, you didn't invite me to your birthday party. You're really treating me like an outsider."

As soon as the frivolous man came in, his eyes fell on Tang Wan.

"Luo Yixuan? Why are you here?"

Tang Wan was very surprised to see the frivolous man.

Then, she thought of something and looked at Du Shuang.

Du Shuang stuck out her tongue and said nothing.

"Xiao Wan, it's your birthday, so of course I have to come... Hmm? Who is he?"

At this time, Luo Yixuan saw Li Taiping beside Tang Wan.

Seeing Li Taiping, a man of the opposite sex, standing so close to Tang Wan, Luo Yixuan frowned.

"His name is Li Taiping. He's Jiangcheng's 'treasure appraiser' and the only man Xiaowan invited to her birthday party!"

Without waiting for Tang Wan to speak, Du Shuang explained to Luo Yixuan, with hints in her words.

Naturally, Luo Yixuan's eyes immediately became sharp after hearing Du Shuang's words.

You know, he started pursuing Tang Wan a year ago, but Tang Wan never even looked at him.

Now, this so-called treasure appraiser of unknown origin has become the only man Tang Wan invited to celebrate her birthday. How could he not feel jealous?

"Old Zhang, I remember your grandfather was also a treasure appraiser. Have you heard of a young treasure appraiser named Li in Jiangcheng?"

Luo Yixuan suddenly asked a man who followed him.

"It seems, not!"

The man said uncertainly.

"Xiao Wan, did you hear that? This guy is a liar, so he's a treasure appraiser. Don't let him fool you."

Luo Yixuan immediately said to Tang Wan.

"Luo Yixuan, you don't need to say anything. I have personally witnessed Mr. Li's treasure appraisal skills. This is undeniable."

Tang Wan said to Luo Yixuan.

"But……"

Luo Yixuan wanted to say something else.

Tang Wan shook her head and said, "Luo Yixuan, there's no need to say any more. If you want to stay and attend my birthday party, I won't chase you away. If you continue to cause trouble for Mr. Li, please leave."

These words.

It was equivalent to Tang Wan telling Luo Yixuan the position of Li Taiping in her mind.

This made Luo Yixuan even more jealous, and he looked at Li Taiping with dissatisfaction.

But he still took a few deep breaths, smiled and said to Tang Wan, "Xiao Wan, don't be angry. I believe he is a treasure appraiser, okay? By the way, this is the birthday gift I prepared for you. I hope you like it."

Luo Yixuan took out an exquisite box.

When I opened the box, there was a jewel necklace inside.

"Wow, it's a gemstone necklace. Such a big gemstone, it must be very expensive, right?"

Du Shuang yelled.

Luo Yixuan was very pleased and waved his hand, saying, "It's not expensive, only about 100,000 yuan. For my wealth, it's just a drop in the bucket!"

Done.

Luo Yixuan pointed his finger at Li Taiping again: "Hey, Li Taiping, right? As our Jiangcheng treasure appraiser, you must have brought a gift for Xiaowan, right? Take it out and let everyone see it."

"My gift has been given to Miss Tang."

Li Taiping said.

"Oh? It's already been sent? What is it and how much is it? It can't be some junk worth a few hundred dollars."

After Luo Yixuan finished speaking, all the men who followed him burst into laughter.

Only the people on Tang Wan's side didn't laugh, but felt a little embarrassed.

"Huh? What's with that look on your face? Did I guess right?"

Luo Yixuan asked.

"Um, that's right, the gift Li Taiping gave to Xiaowan was an antique inkstone worth half a million."

Du Shuang couldn't bear it anymore and said to Luo Yixuan.

"Five hundred thousand? An antique inkstone?"

Luo Yixuan's expression froze instantly, and he said immediately: "I don't believe it. What antique inkstone? It might be fake."

"Luo Yixuan, I'm from the Tang family. Can't I tell whether Mr. Li's inkstone is real or fake?"

Tang Wan frowned slightly.
