Chu Yang ignored Tangtang's sarcasm and took the square seal in his hand.

This is a large square seal made of Shoushan Tianhuang stone.

Shoushan Tianhuang stone is also known as the "Emperor of Stones".

A typical Shoushan stone seal weighs around 20 to 30 grams, while this seal weighs at least 100 grams.

Overall, it appears to have a pure and smooth texture and a golden color, but it has been covered in dust for many years.

Even so, it cannot conceal his "Stone Emperor" brilliance.

The seal face is engraved with the words "Cheng Huai Guan Dao" (meaning "to cultivate one's mind and contemplate

The carving is perfectly natural, exuding an understated majesty.

The dragon-shaped knob symbolizes the status of royalty and nobility.

In a very inconspicuous corner on the side of the seal, Chu Yang also discovered an extremely tiny mark.

That must be a secret mark left by the person who possessed the seal, to prevent it from being counterfeited.

If Chu Yang hadn't had exceptional eyesight, he would have had a hard time spotting it.

The mark was unique; with just a few strokes, it vividly depicted an eagle about to spread its wings and soar.

"How much is this?"

Chen Shun quickly waved his hand, "No, no, no, I dare not accept it."

Chu Yang chuckled and patted his shoulder. "Don't be nervous. Xiao Heizi knows my temper. I won't shortchange him a single penny he deserves. I'm in a hurry right now, so if you insist on arguing with me, I'll get angry."

Chen Shun was a very intelligent man. He could tell that Chu Yang was sincere, so he told the truth in return.

"This seal was sold to us by an unidentified person. Since you're an expert, I won't go into the value of this seal. We paid 190 million for it at the time."

Chu Yang nodded slightly and said, "I won't let you make money. I'll swipe two hundred million on your card, and the ten million will be compensation for the funds you've tied up."

Once in the taxi, Chu Yang noticed that Tangtang seemed to have something on her mind.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I……"

Tangtang hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

She had just heard that the broken stone cost 200 million, so she took a closer look, and now she still feels a bit anxious.

"That seal... I think I've seen it before. But... I just can't remember where I saw it. When I can't figure something out, I get itchy and uncomfortable."

Chu Yang disagreed, thinking that Tangtang was probably just in a bad mood and was just making up an excuse.

The reason is simple: if the Yin Sha Cauldron was so attractive to Hua Xiyue, how much more so to Tangtang?

Chu Yang pointed to Tangtang's bag, "Why don't you sell me the stones inside?"

Tangtang cautiously protected her bag.

"Don't get any funny ideas! This... this... this was left to me by my father. Nobody in the whole world believed him, he..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Yang was surprised to find that Tangtang, a girl with a thick skin, actually had tears in her eyes.

"Okay, okay, you can tell me when you want to later. But let's make it clear beforehand, you have to come to dinner with me, and you must behave yourself and not cause any trouble."

Tangtang fanned her eyes, and the redness faded, revealing her usual foxy expression.

"That's hard to say. I can only say I'll try my best. To be honest, sometimes it's not something I can control. Besides, I'm still angry with you today!"

As she spoke, she suddenly remembered something.

"Huh? Today is strange. Is it because it's my first time kissing a man? Why do I feel like you're a charger? After kissing you, my energy channels feel much smoother."

Chu Yang thought to himself with disdain, "This is only because my extreme yang energy is imprisoned within my body and cannot be released through my meridians."

Tangtang, with her fox-like eyes crinkled, gently nudged Chu Yang's arm with her shoulder.

"Uncle, how about... we kiss again?"

Chu Yang: "..."

"You can rest now. Kissing you is too expensive! I can't afford it!"

Seeing that she had been found out, Tangtang rubbed her snow-white hands together and muttered, "Oh, I'll give you a discount!"

Chu Yang rolled his eyes. "Go away! If you're willing to call me uncle, then you're my niece from now on!"

Tangtang scoffed, "I call you 'uncle' because you look older than I am. Actually... you're not that much older than me."

Chu Yang was too lazy to waste words, so he simply closed his eyes to rest.

Lobby of Genting Hotel.

Chu Yang pointed to the sofa, "You wait here. If you get hungry, just go to the restaurant and order whatever you want, or we can get a room to eat in. I'll pay the bill later."

Tangtang snorted. "Don't think you can act tough in front of me just because you have a little money. Everyone in the antique street knows I treat money like dirt. Don't complain about how much I eat later!"

Chu Yang's lips almost twitched to his ears.

This was Chu Yang's second visit to Genting Hotel. He knew the way well and quickly took the elevator to the rooftop terrace restaurant.

Before he could even look for the bar and ask Liu Fangfei where the open-plan private room she had booked was, he saw a man in his fifties walking towards him with a dark face and long strides.

Liu Fangfei, wearing a black fishtail dress, jogged up from behind.

"Dad, wait for me!"

The relationship between these characters was already quite obvious, and Chu Yang was immediately stunned.

Judging from Liu Fangfei's father's demeanor, he didn't seem like someone who had come to invite her to dinner; rather, he looked like he had just had a fight with someone.

Just as the two passed each other, Liu Fangfei saw Chu Yang from behind.

"Brother Yang, stop my dad!"

Chu Yang was stunned; this was not the situation as agreed beforehand.

The key question is, who are these two people with?

Did Liu Fangfei lie?

Her father didn't agree to this at all.

In a flash, Chu Yang quickly stretched out his arm to stop Liu Fangfei's father.

"Uncle Liu, what's wrong?"

Liu Shuming was taken aback. "You are... Xiaoyang? Oh dear, what a misfortune for our family!"

Chu Yang: "..."

"No, Uncle Liu, if you don't agree now, we can take it slowly. Why is it a family misfortune?"

Liu Shuming quickly waved her hands, "No, no, no, you misunderstood! I trust Feifei's judgment and respect her decision. As long as she's happy, I can accept it. I wasn't talking about you!"

Chu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

His father-in-law absolutely hates him, and if another one comes along, he'll never be able to live like this again.

"So...who are you with?"

He had barely finished speaking when he heard a sharp voice from behind him.

"Liu Shuming! You've been a spineless coward your whole life, and now you can't even manage your daughter's marriage. Let me tell you, I'm in charge of Feifei's marriage!"

Chu Yang roughly guessed the identity of the speaker; it must be Liu Fangfei's mother, Liang Feiyan.

He quickly turned around and saw a beautiful, domineering middle-aged woman, holding the hand of Liu Fangfei, who looked like a wronged child, walking towards him unhurriedly.

Chu Yang realized that he was actually having a tough time.

Liang Feiyan approached, glancing sideways at Chu Yang and looking him up and down.

"You're that son-in-law of the Su family? What's your name again... Yang?"

"My name is..."

"No need to tell me! I don't want to know!"

"Mom! Why are you being so mean to Yang?"

Being directly criticized by her daughter, who was always so submissive in front of her, Liang Feiyan immediately lost face.

However, she didn't vent her anger, and instead beckoned to Chu Yang with her finger.

"Come and eat! I want to have a chat with you."

Although Liu Shuming and his daughter Liu Fangfei kept giving Chu Yang meaningful glances, signaling him not to go.

But that's not Chu Yang's personality.

He was used to clearing away all obstacles in his path.

Besides, Liang Feiyan is Liu Fangfei's mother, which is an indisputable fact that he can never get around.

Seeing that Chu Yangzhen had followed, the father and daughter looked at each other, finally sighed, and followed as well.

The father and daughter agreed that they couldn't let Chu Yang face that tigress alone.

Before Chu Yang even entered private room number 8, he saw the familiar large banyan tree used for landscaping, and a man in his thirties was already sitting at the table under the tree.

For some reason, Chu Yang suddenly thought of Gu Chen, who should have already been reincarnated.

"Let's change to another private room. This place... isn't very auspicious."

"Oh? So timid? No wonder people say, 'Bold in love, but afraid of being bitten by a dog.'"

The man had a mocking expression on his face.

Chu Yang also sized up the other person.

You can tell at a glance that he's a wealthy person; the agate ring on his finger is worth no less than 30 million.

Moreover, ordinary wealthy people wouldn't do things like this.

Even if you can afford it, it's only for women to wear when they go out to make a show of themselves.

Men tend to display their money in the most conspicuous places: luxury cars and mansions.

Chu Yang didn't argue with that person, since he didn't know him anyway.

He was about to ask Liang Feiyan what she thought when Liang Feiyan glared at him fiercely.

"Didn't you hear Chairman Kang talking to you? How rude of you!"
