Chapter 199 Rejected
Ye Fan had already expected this result, so he was not the least bit nervous.
With the speed at which he moved, it would likely only be possible to see his actions if a high-speed camera were slowed down a thousand times.
How could the ordinary security cameras in this antique shop possibly capture the moment he acted?
"Miss Wan, it seems this really was just an accident," Ye Fan said with a smile.
"Yes! Since it was an accident, let's just leave it at that!" Wan Qingyan looked deeply at Ye Fan as she spoke.
Although the surveillance cameras had not captured Ye Fan's actions.
She still believed that Ye Fan was pulling strings behind the scenes!
"Miss Wan, if there is nothing else, I will be leaving now!"
Ye Fan did not linger any longer, turned around, and walked away.
After Ye Fan left, Wan Qingyan turned to look at Uncle Wang and asked with a grave expression, "Uncle Wang, what exactly happened when you took the box earlier?"
"I don't know either! I just felt my hand go numb for a second, and I didn't get a firm grip on the jade carving... Sigh!"
"Someone must have tampered with it; you don't need to blame yourself too much!" Wan Qingyan comforted him.
She returned downstairs.
When she arrived at the counter.
She discovered that the jade carving inside the box had inexplicably returned to its original state!
"Hmm?"
"It's already been repaired?"
Wan Qingyan looked surprised.
She quickly and carefully picked up the jade carving, examining it over and over again.
Confirming that the jade carving had been perfectly repaired, she tried shaking it; the repair was extremely solid!
It was exactly the same as the original, with no trace of it ever having been shattered.
"Eldest Miss, I have remixed the restoration fluid; please let me try again!"
Just at that moment.
Artifact Restoration Expert hurried over, holding a bottle of restoration fluid in his hand.
He had just left to remix a bottle of restoration fluid, wanting to try repairing it one more time!
But when he reached Wan Qingyan and saw the jade carving in her hands, his eyes widened in shock, and he exclaimed, "Eldest Miss, have you already found someone to repair it?"
"Master Yan, didn't you repair this?"
Wan Qingyan asked back, her face full of astonishment.
Artifact Restoration Expert shook his head repeatedly: "Of course not! I went to find materials myself and mixed a bottle of restoration fluid, intending to come back and try again!"
"Then whose work is this?"
Wan Qingyan was full of confusion, unable to fathom it.
Suddenly thinking of something, she hurriedly ran toward the monitoring room.
Upon returning to the monitoring room, she immediately pulled up the counter surveillance footage, wanting to get to the bottom of it.
Unfortunately, although the surveillance had captured the person's figure, they were wearing a mask and sunglasses.
Judging by their build, they appeared to be a young person in their twenties or thirties.
After repairing the jade carving, the person left the shop.
It happened during the time they were checking the surveillance.
"Who is he? Why did he help us without even saying a word?" Uncle Wang asked in surprise.
He really couldn't understand it.
What a huge favor this was.
How could the other party not want anything in return?
"I might know who he is..."
Wan Qingyan pursed her lips, vaguely guessing the person's true identity.
Could this person be the owner of the voice in her head?
If it wasn't for this person, she would have fallen into Ye Fan's trap.
She had clearly been harmed by Ye Fan, yet in the end, she would have had to thank him!
...
Jiang Chenfeng did not want to reveal his identity.
After leaving the antique shop, he successfully received the system's reward!
Furthermore, this incident gave him a bold idea.
That was to constantly farm system rewards through Ye Fan!
Anyway, as long as he completed a plot point, he could obtain system rewards.
Then he didn't need to confront Ye Fan directly at all to obtain unlimited system rewards!
Feeling the improvement in his physique, Jiang Chenfeng felt very comfortable, and the smile on his face grew brighter.
If he farmed a hundred or so system rewards, wouldn't it be as easy to crush Ye Fan with his ability as it would be to crush a bug?
Just as he left the antique street, he saw a familiar figure.
At this very moment.
Ye Fan, who was riding a shared electric bike, had his path blocked by a middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman was none other than Liu Shuxian!
Standing in front of Ye Fan, Liu Shuxian looked bitter and said subserviently, "Ye Fan, I came specifically to apologize to you. I hope you can show mercy and spare the Liu Family!"
"Apologize? Why are you apologizing?"
Seeing Liu Shuxian's posture, Ye Fan curled his lips into a sneer of contempt.
That Liu Shuxian came to apologize was completely within his expectations.
He had already had Jiutian Group take action to suppress the Liu Family, letting Liu Shuxian know that she had offended someone she shouldn't have!
"It was my fault! I shouldn't have gone around spouting nonsense about that matter! Please, let us off!"
Liu Shuxian was filled with regret and slapped herself across the face.
She had originally thought the other party was just a good-for-nothing who lived off a woman.
So what if the matter got out?
But what happened?
Just last night.
The Liu Family's business partners called one after another to cut ties with them!
Not only that.
Banks were also demanding repayment of loans!
As a result, the Liu Family's capital chain immediately fell into a tight spot.
If this continued, they would definitely end up going bankrupt!
Liu Shuxian had no choice but to make inquiries, only to find out that it was an order from Jiutian Group.
For Jiutian Group to crush the Liu Family, it would be too easy!
In order to find out where she had offended Jiutian Group, Liu Shuxian had gone specifically to Jiutian Group to ask.
Only in the end did she learn that it was an order from Ye Fan!
Although she didn't know how Ye Fan had gotten involved with Jiutian Group, she didn't dare to ask any more questions and could only run over to apologize to Ye Fan in person.
Seeing Liu Shuxian's attitude, Ye Fan felt incredibly satisfied.
But he didn't intend to let Liu Shuxian off, saying coldly, "You know regret now? Even if you apologize to me, what's the point?"
"That matter is already known to everyone; can you erase everyone's memories?"
This woman had ruined his reputation.
How could he easily let her off?
"Mr. Ye, I really know I was wrong! Please, spare me; whatever you want, I will agree to it!"
Liu Shuxian pleaded subserviently.
"Then kneel down and kowtow! Kowtow a hundred times first, and then I will consider whether or not to let you off!" Ye Fan sneered.
Liu Shuxian felt extremely bitter.
Actually, she was just someone who couldn't control her mouth, but at her core, she wasn't a bad person.
Back when Ye Fan was a Son-in-law who lives with the wifes family in the Xia family, she had even wanted to find Ye Fan a job.
It was just that Ye Fan had refused it himself!
