My Ares Son-in-Law

The black card was entirely black, made of a special material that felt cool to the touch. Its surface was devoid of any extraneous decorations, except for a small "万" (wan) character printed on the front, exuding understated luxury.

Yun Yuyan curiously flipped the black card over and saw a line of small print: "Wanbaoge Royal VIP Card - Valid for Life - Number - 003".

Upon seeing these words, Yun Yuyan's eyes widened in shock. "This...this is...a Royal VIP Card?"

"Yes, Miss Yun."

Zhou Zhengqing nodded. "Wanbaoge's VIP cards are divided into five levels, from lowest to highest: Ordinary, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Royal. Among them, the Royal VIP card is Wanbaoge's highest level VIP card, and so far, only two have been issued..."

"One is in Miss Qin's own hands, another is in the hands of a top figure in the capital. This is the third one, which Miss Qin specially prepared for Mr. Xiao."

"My goodness, what have I, Yun Yuyan, done to deserve such a precious card? Miss Qin is too generous! You're really giving this to us?" Yun Yuyan was completely shocked.

Zhou Zhengqing smiled and said, "To be precise, it's a gift for Mr. Xiao. The cardholder can enjoy the highest level of privileges at Wanbaoge."

"Including but not limited to: priority preview of all auction items, participation in the auction without deposit, exclusive VIP box, one-on-one service from a private appraiser, and lifetime free use of all properties under Wanbaoge, whether hotels, clubs, or jewelry stores, the two of you can use them at will without paying any fees."

Yun Yuyan was completely shocked. Of course she knew the card wasn't hers, but whether it was hers or Xiao Chen's, it was too outrageous. Qin Xianglan had actually given away such a precious card.

They just gave away spirit bones worth over 10 billion yesterday.

Outrageous!

She couldn't help but mutter to herself, "A lifetime free use right, and there are only three in the whole world. This is just too outrageous! I would never even dare to dream of such a thing in my entire life!"

"Xiao Chen, can we really accept this card? It's far too valuable..."

"Just accept it," Xiao Chen said casually. "If Qin Xianglan wants to give it to you, then just accept it."

“But…” Yun Yuyan wanted to say something more, but Xiao Chen interrupted her.

"If you don't like it, just throw it away." Xiao Chen waved his hand.

"Throw it away?! What nonsense are you talking about! This is a Royal VIP Card from Wanbaoge! There are only three in the entire world! You want me to throw it away? That would be such a waste! No, no, absolutely not!"

Yun Yuyan hurriedly grabbed the black card, like a mother hen protecting her chicks.

Xiao Chen shook his head: "You don't want it even if I give it to you, so just keep it. Anyway, it's useless to me, and I can't return it, otherwise Qin Xianglan won't be able to sleep well!"

Seeing this, Zhou Zhengqing was completely dumbfounded.

That's a gold VIP card! Anyone in the entire western region who gets one would treasure it like a precious gem. But this guy just doesn't care about it at all.

Although he knew this person was very capable, he really couldn't figure out what extraordinary background this young man, who looked to be only in his early twenties, had.

It's astonishing that Qin Xianglan is so wary of him and so eager to please him.

Yesterday they presented us with the museum's prized possession, and today they're giving us a rare Royal VIP card.

"Mr. Xiao, Ms. Qin said that she really looks forward to seeing you two at the auction the day after tomorrow. At that time, all the auction items will be displayed in advance for you two to preview first. You two will have the right to choose all the items first. No matter what the final transaction price is, Ms. Qin will cover half of the cost for you two."

Zhou Zhengqing forced himself to calm down and said respectfully. Xiao Chen glanced at Yun Yuyan: "It's fine for me to go or not, do you want to go?"

Yun Yuyan nodded repeatedly: "I want to go! Of course I want to go! I've never participated in such a high-end auction before, and I even get a preview! That's so cool!"

“Yes, I know!” Xiao Chen looked at Zhou Zhengqing. “Go back and tell Qin Xianglan that we will arrive the day after tomorrow, but I must remind you again that I don’t want what happened before to happen again. So, you know what to do.”

Zhou Zhengqing nodded repeatedly: "Mr. Xiao, rest assured, our Miss Qin has made full preparations. She will be present in person. If anyone dares to disrespect you, she will take action herself and will absolutely not let you feel uncomfortable!"

"Okay, is there anything else?"

"That's all. You're busy, so I won't bother you anymore! Goodbye!" Zhou Zhengqing could also tell that Xiao Chen seemed to be getting a little impatient.

He left the villa with several bodyguards and walked away.

In the living room, Yun Yuyan looked at the Royal VIP card with delight, as if she had suddenly become the happiest person in the world.

"A Royal VIP card with lifetime free use—that's amazing! Xiao Chen, does that mean we can go to Wanbaoge anytime from now on? Will we be able to see all those precious auction items?"

"Yeah, go wherever you want. You'll have priority access to whatever you want to buy, and you'll even get discounts. Isn't that great?"

"It's more than amazing, it's like a dream. Forget about buying anything, just being able to see those treasures up close would make my life worthwhile."

"Whatever makes you happy. This stuff is better than milk tea, right?"

"That's different, each has its own advantages."

"...Fine, you're even more impressive than me. You're the only one in the world who would compare Wanbaoge's Royal VIP Card to milk tea. I'm impressed!"

Yun Yuyan didn't care about Xiao Chen's teasing at all. She looked at the royal VIP card for a while before putting it away and looking at the gift boxes: "Xiao Chen, Qin Xianglan gave you a spirit bone worth 10 billion yesterday. These gifts must be quite special."

"Hmm, it's not simple, but it's definitely not as good as the spirit bone before. It might be quite suitable for you though. Open it and take a look. If you like it, I'll give it to you directly."

"You said it, don't go back on your word!"

Yun Yuyan hurriedly put the Royal VIP card into her bag and opened the gift boxes.

The first gift box contained a blue and white porcelain vase, with a regular shape, a lustrous glaze, and the inscription "Made in the Yongzheng Reign of the Great Qing Dynasty" on the bottom.

The second gift box contained a Polygonum multiflorum plant, about the size of a baby's fist, shaped like a small person, with complete rootlets and a shiny black body.

The third gift box contained a jade pendant, made of white jade, smooth and lustrous, carved with an auspicious beast, with exquisite craftsmanship.

In the fourth gift box...

Yun Yuyan opened all six gift boxes, and the contents of each box were an eye-opener for her.

"Xiao Chen, how much do you think these things are worth?"

"Putting everything else aside, the blue-and-white porcelain vase in the first gift box alone is worth tens of millions. The rest are even more valuable. This Qin Xianglan really put in a lot of effort. If I don't help her in the future, it'll make me look incompetent." (End of Chapter)
