It's dark.
In the backyard of the villa.
Dong Xuebing was sitting at the stone table, sipping his tea. Xie Hao, who was sitting opposite him, was asking Dong Xuebing to teach him Kung Fu. Dong Xuebing ignored him and thought to himself.
"Brother Dong, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing. It's about work."
"Alright. Are you thinking about how to propose to my sister?"
"You are smart! How do you think I should propose? "
"Just buy a diamond ring and ask for it. It's not a big deal."
"It's not that simple. You should know your sister has a lot of problems."
"Ah … what's wrong with my sister?"
"I am afraid she will pick on me if I am too shabby."
"Alright, alright. My Sis is not that kind of person. Brother Dong, don't be fooled by my Sis's words. You can't believe what she said. She is not telling the truth."
"Ok. I know."
"Just listen to me. No matter how you propose, my sister will surely agree."
"You still don't understand. It's not about whether she will agree or not."
Dong Xuebing is troubled by this problem. Xie Huilan had put down her pride and asked Dong Xuebing to propose to her. That means Dong Xuebing cannot ask her how to propose. What's going on? That's why Dong Xuebing can only consider his own proposal. This is the most important thing in his life, and he must not be careless. He felt he must not only propose, but he must also do it in a spectacular manner. No one can find fault with him and let Sister Xie be happy. After that, he will marry Xie Huilan. This is the only way he can do it.
Propose, propose, propose.
Dong Xuebing suddenly thought of his wedding ring. He must prepare for it, but what should he prepare? Compared to the two pink diamonds on TV, no diamond ring will look good. Or maybe Dong Xuebing felt bad for Xie Huilan. To be honest, Xie Huilan is too different in terms of looks and family background. That's why Dong Xuebing is grateful that Xie Huilan is willing to marry him. He does not want Xie Huilan to suffer and does not want others to say that he is not good enough for her.
No. I cannot let Xie Huilan be wronged!
I must give Sister Xie a surprise! That pair of pink diamonds … must be bought!
Dong Xuebing had an idea in his mind and showed a determined look on his face. A diamond ring worth over 200 million RMB should not be too shabby. It was decided!
Dong Xuebing immediately said: "Xiao Hao, you go back first."
"… What's up?"
"Just do as I tell you to."
"Okay, okay, then I'll go watch TV."
After Xie Hao left, Dong Xuebing took out his phone and called Qu Yunxuan. "Hello, Aunt Xuan. How are things at home?"
"Everything's fine. I'm taking a walk with Qianqian."
"Well, I just wanted to ask, how much money do we have left?"
"You have an ICBC platinum card in your wallet. You can check it yourself."
"Hmm? What card? "Dong Xuebing was stunned." I don't have a platinum card. I only have a wealth management card. "
Qu Yunxuan laughed. "Before I left, I had placed the money in your bank account when you were sleeping. The company had been sold, and I can't use the cheques anymore. That's why I deposited the money into a bank card for you."
"Huh? Why did you give it to me? Don't you need the money?"
"I had kept 5 million RMB for myself to buy a house or for my children's education. I still have 190 million RMB left. It's all in my bank card."
"Why are you doing this?"
"You are the one who brought me the antiques and jade. The company is sold, and you should be the one to use the money. I have no use for it."
"You are the one who keeps separating the money from me!"
"You are the one who keeps separating the money from me. I have enough money now, and why do you want me to keep 200 million RMB? You can invest whatever you want, and you don't need to discuss with me. I will ask you for more money when my children need it in the future. That's settled. " Suddenly, Qu Yunxuan heard crying, and she quickly said. "Qianqian is crying. Maybe she is hungry. I will hang up now."
"Ok. Go back now."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing looks at his wallet. There is an ICBC Platinum Card with 190 million RMB. Even with the money in his card, he still has less than 200 million RMB. How is he going to buy the ring? Judging from the situation at the auction, he needs at least 100 million RMB to get the ring. He needs at least 300 million RMB to get the ring.
He still needs 100 million RMB?
Borrow money? Who can he borrow from? Even if he sells his house, it will not be enough!
A single cent can stump a hero, let alone 100 million RMB. Where can he get the money from?
Since he became rich, Dong Xuebing did not care about money. But when he needs to use it, he realized money is not enough.
Money!
Money!
Money!
Dong Xuebing's head hurts. He wanted to give Xie Huilan a surprise, but it's too difficult now. He can't even get enough money to appraise the ring!
Back in the villa, Xie Huilan, Han Jing, and the rest are watching TV. It's still the same program, and it's showing a series of pictures of antique auctions. Both Xie Huilan and Madam Han love antiques, and they are enjoying the show.
Suddenly, a painting appeared on the screen.
Xie Huilan gasped. "Xu Yang's painting?"
Dong Xuebing knows a little about antiques. "Xu Yang? That Qing Dynasty painter? "
"It's him. Come over and take a look." Xie Huilan patted the empty seat beside her.
Dong Xuebing sat beside her and looked at the screen. "Is this his early painting? But it should be worth a few tens of million. Although he is not as famous as Qi Baishi, his paintings fetch sky-high prices during auctions. "
Xie Hao suddenly said. "Oh, before you all came, Wei Nan had come over. I heard his villa caught fire about 10 days ago. There is a painting of Xu Yang in his safe? It's worth 100 million RMB? "
Xie Huilan nodded. "It's a pity."
Dong Xuebing asked. "In the safe? That painting should be fine. "
"How can it be fine?" Xie Huilan explained. "It was a few hundred to a thousand degrees, and the safe was deformed, let alone the contents inside. Although it was not burned, it is still paper and had turned to ashes. I heard Wei Nan had gotten someone to cut open the safe, but all that's left is a pile of black dust. It's a pity. < Conquering the Western Regions Painting > is a rare painting."
Burned to ashes?
It's worth 100 million?
Dong Xuebing's eyes lit up. "Where is that painting now?"
"Where is what?"
"That pile of ashes? Is it still with the villa?"
"Should be. The villa had not been touched."
Dong Xuebing clenched his fist. "Aunty, I will go back first. I suddenly remembered something. Xiao Hao, Xiao Ran, Xiao Jing, I'm sorry. I will leave first."
The opportunity to make money is here!
I can buy the ring now!
Dong Xuebing is excited!
