Chapter 320
The audience was in shock. The host looked at Old Mr Du begrudgingly. Even when he had 120 million
earlier, everyone was already staring at him suspiciously. Now that he suddenly bid up to 170 million
when the starting price was so low, one couldn’t blame the rest of the people for looking at him
suspiciously. Seeing the host walking toward him, Old Mr Du couldn’t help but feel anxious. He
definitely could not afford to pay a hefty price of 170 million but he was placing his trust in Fade Chen.
This was the only reason why he was bidding at such a high amount If the other party forced his hand,
he would have to gather the money even if it caused him to become broke. He couldn’t let Dr. Chen
look down on him. Just as Old Mr Du had made up his mind and clenched his fist. Fade gestured his
hand at the host and said, "There’s no need for an investigation. Old Mr Du would definitely not be able
to pay 170 million!" Hearing this, everyone on the scene was dumbfounded. They couldn’t understand
what was going on at all. Old Mr Du believed that Fade was going to help him outbid Shawn Liang.
This guy had been crazily raising the price all this while till it reached 170 million. But at the final
moment, he insisted that Old Mr Du did not have enough money. No one in the audience saw this
coming.
The host laughed dryly, looked at Old Mr Du and asked in a trembling voice, "Old Mr Du, you must be
joking!" Before Old Mr Du could say anything, Fade spoke again, "No, this isn’t a joke. Old Mr Du only
prepared 120 million in capital. I’m very sure he wouldn’t be able to afford 170 million." "Well." The host
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdidn’t expect Fade to confirm this, so he was really stunned. Hearing this, Shawn was shaken out of his
daze. He laughed and said, "Old Mr Du, if you can’t afford this item, then stop playing games. Now this
kid has screwed you over. What are you going to do if you can’t pull out this money ?" Old Mr Du’s
expression darkened. He gritted his teeth and was ready to refute him. But at this time, Fade stood up
again and pointed at Shawn. He smiled and said, "Old Mr Du’s money is indeed not enough, but
together with your money, it should be enough right?" "Ah!" The crowd was stunned once again. They
didn’t know what crazy act Fade was pulling but it was definitely a mess. Shawn was stunned for a
moment, then he proceeded to laugh coolly, "You must be joking, what do you mean by the phrase
’together with your money? Wait, do you think that I will lend money to Old Mr Du? Do you think that i’ll
bid together with him?" Host, obviously their biddings earlier were against the rules. I demand that their
earlier biddings be cancelled," Shawn shouted. The host also looked over. Fade was still calm. He
looked at Shawn and said, "I didn’t say that you have to lend your money to Old Mr Du. What meant
was, your money is actually ours!" "Bullshit, what are you talking about? Since when did my money
become yours ?" Shawn said. He was rarely this furious. He shouted angrily, "Host, this guy is just
trying to make a scene. I strongly insist that you drive him out." The host was about to make a move,
but right at that moment, Fade’s face fell and he exuded a cold vibe. In an icy tone, he said, "Why don’t
you ask that good old grandson of yours, Donny, about this?" "What do you mean?" Shawn asked. He
frowned and looked at Donny Liang. At this exact moment, Donny knew exactly what Fade meant. With
a flustered look on his face, he knew without a doubt that Fade was referring to that 90 million. "What’s
the matter?" Shawn asked. Donny stuttered and murmured, unwilling to speak up. Seeing this, Fade
said, "Since he doesn’t want to tell you, then I’ll speak on his behalf! Your grandson, Donny, owes me
90 million. It has been long overdue and I want it back now. "What? You owe him 90 million!" Not only
Shawn, but the rest of the audience was also shocked. They couldn’t help but turn their attention
toward Donny. Donny didn’t look great. He glared at Fade and said through gritted teeth, "You’re lying. I
don’t owe you any money, let alone 90 million. This is utter bullshit!" Fade saw this coming. His lips
curled into a sinister smile and he said," If that’s the case, you leave me with no choice but to tell
everyone what happened that day." Hearing this, Donny’s expression changed immediately. If people
found out that he scammed others, this would not only affect him, but also his grandfather. He was
afraid that their position in the Long City antique collector’s circle would be jeopardized. But at the
thought of the 90 million, Donny’s heart ached again. He gritted his teeth and said, "Go ahead and
conjure up your story, I have no idea what happened and I don’t have the slightest idea about the 90
million you’re talking about." "Is that so?" Fade said. He sneered, and then proceeded to give a signal
to Caesar Du. Caesar was already on standby. He took out a thumb drive from his pocket and handed
it to one of the staff members. Turning to Donny, he teased him, saying " Hey Donny, I’m sure you
never thought that someone would be filming you that day. Unfortunately for you, we have everything
on camera." Upon hearing this, Donny was so shocked that he started shivering and nearly collapsed
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto the ground. He wanted to stop the video from playing, but it was too late. On the screen, the video
had started to play. It showed the day that Fade was helping Caesar to spot and bid for the Buddhist
treasure. As the video came to the end, everyone finally understood what had happened that day. All of
a sudden, everyone’s gaze was focused on Donny. One could hear the crowd buzzing with excitement.
"I didn’t think that Donny would try to cheat other people!" "What a blow to Chairman Liang’s reputation!
This conniving son of a bit**" "Someone like him shouldn’t mingle within our circle. Don’t even think
about being around him in the future. Just when you let your guard down, you’ll definitely be scammed
by him." "I only thought that he was a playboy. I never expected him to be so shameless." Facing the
criticism of the crowd, Donny’s face became pale, his body swayed and he almost fell to the ground.
Beside him, Shawn’s expression was dark, and he looked at his grandson with a sense of
dissatisfaction. No one could tell what he was thinking about at that moment. Seeing this, Fade
announced, "Chairman Liang, now you may return the 90 million to me! As for the interest after the due
date, i’ll waive it for you." Hearing this, Shawn’s expression was gloomy again. Naturally, he didn’t want
the reputation of a scammer. However, he also didn’t want to fork out 90 million for a complete stranger.
After all, this was 90 million they were talking about! After a moment of silence, Shawn seemed to have
come to a conclusion. Suddenly, his face changed. He laughed and said to Fade,"Hahaha, so this is
the 90 million you’re talking about. This is nothing but a few kids messing around and spouting
nonsense. If this is the way you’re trying to get 90 million from me, you must be
dreaming!" Hearing this, Fade’s expression darkened, so he said," I see that you’re planning to avoid
your debts ?" Shawn rolled his eyes and retorted, "The debt you are talking about doesn’t exist at all.so
how can they say that I’m avoiding my debts?".
