    Ding Dong! Little cute, you have been captured by me! The proportion of Chapter V subscriptions is insufficient~ But now, I don’t know where a face-to-face young man appeared, not only to help her most annoying Madam Lou, but also to challenge her?

    Mrs. Zhao asked about Shi Yunnan's identity again, "Which young master are you? Who are your parents?"

    Wen Yibei on the side saw that the atmosphere was not right, and he was about to step forward to help speak, and saw Xie Keyue walk out of the group of guests, "Mrs. Zhao, this is my brother, Shi Yunnan."

    "He just came back from abroad a while ago, and you look normal." Xie Ke Yue walked to Mrs. Zhao's side and stood still, silently locking his eyes on the two brothers opposite.

    Wen Yibei's complexion was slightly lighter, and he slightly avoided the other's gaze.

    Regarding this Xie Keyue, who followed his mother into the Shi family and became the Third Young Master, he himself does not have much opinion.

    It's just that, as the elder brother, he will naturally favor his own brother.

    Thinking of Xie Keyue being held up to heaven in the Shi family over the past few years, Shi Yunnan was left unattended by them abroad, and he felt wronged for his brother in his heart.

    Shi Yunnan let out a short breath, as if he had expected Xie Keyue's appearance a long time ago.

    After all, he is the protagonist in the original book with a halo and everything goes well. It is indeed difficult to completely bring him down with a single ‘nightclub downfall’.

    "Shi Yunnan?" Madam Zhao muttered vaguely, and then noticed Wen Yibei next to her, finally reacting completely.

    "Yes."

    Xie Keyue took the place of answering, his gaze shifted slightly to the jewels, and the nice scenes came as they were said, "I feel that this jewel is graceful and luxurious, and it is just right to match the temperament of Mrs. Zhao."

    Madam Zhao touched her jewellery necklace vainly, her expression unable to admire Xie Keyue, "Speaking of which, I would like to thank the third master and your mother for this birthday gift."

    "Mr. Wen knows music, Master Xie knows jewelry, just..."

    Madam Zhao deliberately glanced at Shi Yunnan's face, and changed her words, "Obviously he is a brother in name, why is the difference so big?"

    There was no mention of Shi Yunnan in these words, but he didn't save Shi Yunnan face at all.

    When people around heard this, they instantly understood

    It turns out that the jewellery necklace that Mrs. Zhao loved Youjia was given by Xie Keyue and his mother? These diamonds are flashing blind people, you know that the price is high when you look at it!

    The results of it?

    Shi Yunnan, who didn't understand jewelry, said nonsense, and even said that it was comparable to Madam Lou's small jewelry. He simply didn't know how to appreciate it and had no insight.

    No wonder Mrs. Zhao praised Xie Keyue and ignored Shi Yunnan's answer.

    "How do you say that the Shi family is considered a wealthy family, how did you develop such a second young master who doesn't know the quality of things?"

    "Second Young Master is nothing more than a title? Go and find out, Shi Yunnan is the one who was abandoned at all. Who cares about him?"

    "Hey, I'm embarrassed here."

    "Yes, anyone who is smart knows whom to speak to at this banquet."

    The guests ate melons and watched the play, occasionally whispering a few times.

    Shi Yunnan listened to these remarks without any embarrassment on his face. He shook the glass slightly, and even took a sip of wine in a leisurely manner.

    Wen Yibei, who was close, immediately stepped forward, and once again guarded Shi Yunnan, who was ‘targeted by the public’, behind him tightly.

    "Mrs. Zhao, Yunnan didn't say that you didn't say anything. You shouldn't and don't have the right to criticize him in public."

    Wen Yibei is a personable and elegant young man, who almost never has bad rapport with others, but Shi Yunnan is involved in this matter, and his tone is a bit tougher than usual.

    The implication is that there is a bit of an apology for Madam Zhao in turn.

    "Mrs. Zhao, Second Young Master Shi just kindly relieved me."

    Mrs. Lou also spoke, feeling uneasy.

    "He didn't mean anything from beginning to end, and he didn't deliberately dislike your jewelry as bad. Why should you target a child for no reason?"

    She only felt that Shi Yunnan was innocent, and was easily implicated in the fighting between their women.

    It was originally just a small friction between words, but as a result, the two sides came back and forth, coupled with the fanfare of the guests on the side, the situation suddenly expanded——

    Mrs. Zhao became more and more angry, and couldn't help but sneered, "Children? How old are you to return children? I asked, which guest would pick the hostess at the banquet?"

    Someone gloated again, "Mrs. Zhao, why don't you check the guest list again? I think some people can't even afford a formal dress for fear that they sneaked in because of troubled waters."

    "..."

    The pertinence of this statement couldn't be more obvious.

    Shi Yun's south side looked towards the source of the sound, only to realize that it was the young master Wei who had broken his mouth at the beginning.

    The other party was gagged by Wen Yibei just now, and has been unwilling to do so, but now it happens when the time is right.

    When Madam Zhao heard this, she suddenly remembered something.

    Although the banquet was arranged by the hotel, the guest list was personally selected by her and her husband Zhao Chengru.

    The guests invited to participate today have more or less impressions of her. Take these three nominal brothers as an example——

    Wen Yibei was the guest invited for the opening performance, and Xie Keyue received the invitation letter because of this ‘jewelry gift’.

    But the rest of the Shi family, especially the Shi Yunnan in front of him, are not in her invitation memory at all?

    "Go and check the guest list." Madam Zhao asked the waiter on the side.

    When these words came out, it was obvious that Shi Yunnan was completely ignored.

    Xie Ke lowered his eyes to cover up the joy in the depths of his pupils.

    The last time Shi Yunnan made him plant such a big somersault in a nightclub, today it was his turn to be humiliated in public and lost his face, he finally got a bad breath!

    Wen Yibei saw his brother being treated like this in public, and instantly blushed, "Mrs. Zhao, you..."

    "Brother, it's okay."

    Shi Yunnan squeezed Wen Yibei's wrist lightly to stop the other party from speaking for himself.

    He took two steps forward, his expression relaxed, "Mrs. Zhao, taking advantage of the waiter's effort to check the guest list, why don't you look up your necklace?"

    Mrs. Zhao wondered, "What do you mean?"

    Shi Yunnan glanced at the jewelry necklace in front of her and said fluently, "This jewelry necklace is named'hera' and it was created by two jewelry designers. It is the only one in the world, and its value- "

    "It's equivalent to RMB 50 million."

    When the guests heard the price, they took a breath of air-conditioning.

    It is understandable to buy luxury goods for myself at this price, but it is a bit too much to give it as a gift.

    Madam Zhao was faintly surprised, and Xie Ke unconsciously tightened the glass in her hand, always feeling that Shi Yunnan would say something unfavorable to him.

    "Although family ugliness cannot be publicized, everyone knows that the Shi Group had some financial problems some time ago, and Mr. Shi has always strictly controlled the property of our juniors."

    "Keyue, where did the money to buy the necklace come from?" Shi Yunnan looked at him with interest, "You mother and son spend so much money, do you know?"

    "..."

    Xie Keyue's face changed slightly and did not answer.

    Where does the money for buying the necklace come from? Of course it was using his own savings, Old Shi didn't even know about it.

    Some time ago, the nightclub was sealed up by relevant departments, and Xie Keyue was also taken back to the police station for investigation by the police.

    Fortunately, he had paid his attention when he became a shareholder. Although the dirty/dirty transactions in the nightclubs have considerable income, he didn't ask for anything, and he didn't even show up in such transactions at all. He just discussed the turnover of the nightclub with Lao Feng. More than a sum in the Ming section.

    Lao Feng had a good friendship with him, but he was somewhat greedy in his bones. He thought he took advantage and agreed.

    Now that something went wrong in the nightclub, Lao Feng's squat in prison was a certainty.

    And Xie Keyue relied on relatively clean sharing transfers to make sure that he didn't know anything about secret transactions in nightclubs, and he had a lawyer to clear it...

    After coming and going, got away smoothly.

    Xie Ke has a lot of big and small investments under his hands.

    The nightclub accident caused him to lose a stable investment share, Xie Keyue naturally needed to find another investment to make up for this gap.

    It happened that last month he spent money to acquire a small domestic cosmetics company that was about to go bankrupt, intending to use the famous brand of "Zhao" to sell the products of the small company and make a wave of quick money.

    Therefore, Xie Keyue bought such a jewellery necklace in an attempt to get acquainted with her husband, Zhao Chengru, the boss of the Zhao clan, through ‘please please Mrs. Zhao’.

    Of course, the guests present did not know what Xie Keyue's real thoughts were. They were called by Shi Yunnan a little, and they began to guess in a word

    "Yes, why do their mother and son still have free money to buy gifts for others?"

    "Come on, is the fifty or so million that the Shi family lacks? Maybe they just want to use the money for this jewelry necklace to seek financial support from the Zhao family."

    "Let me just say, giving such an expensive gift is definitely in demand."

    "You are not right." Shi Yunnan shook his head, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more careless, "Because this necklace is a fake, it is not worth 50 million at all."

    As soon as the voice fell, the gasp of the audience rang.

    Madam Zhao was startled, as if she couldn't believe it, "What did you say?"

    "Yunnam, what are you talking about, how can this necklace be a counterfeit?"

    Xie Keyue immediately followed, although his speech speed was a little anxious, but the confidence in his tone was still there.

    He did spend money to trust someone to buy it back from abroad, but the price was only a few million, not the high price that the other party said.

    Shi Yunnan didn't look at him straight, but fixed his sharp gaze on the necklace.

    "The real hera is composed of five hundred and twenty diamonds, and the outer periphery of ten giant pearls. The backing is made of 18k rose gold."

    "Each diamond above is the highest grade in terms of clarity, color or cut, which is why its price is created."

    Because there are too many diamonds on the same backing chain, it is very troublesome to make by hand.

    The reason why Shi Yunnan knows so clearly is that this real hera necklace is one of the works he designed and participated in.

    The authentic product is a private collection of a certain foreign female celebrity. The buyer's name is also engraved on the base, so it is impossible to easily change ownership.

    That's why he hesitated a little when he saw this necklace just now.

    "And Madam Zhao, the clarity of this one on your body is at most vs2 visible to the naked eye, but it is at the i, j level, and even the cut can only be called average..."

    Shi Yunnan didn't put it too hard, but it suffices to show that this necklace is not the best.

    Mrs. Zhao should not be a real diamond collector, plus the lights of today's banquet hall as a cover, so no one noticed it.

    For everyone, Shi Yunnan's remarks were too professional and fluent, which not only made it difficult for them to refute, but also believed that it was true.

    "Mrs. Zhao, I originally wanted to save you a bit of face, so I didn't say it at the beginning, but you don't seem to appreciate..."

    Shi Yunnan retracted his gaze and shook his head.

    "Even if it is a good copy, it is worth a certain price, but a fake is a fake, not as good as Madam Lou's diamond necklace."

    Shi Yunnan felt that from the bottom of his bones, he was not a good person in the true sense.

    If others don't provoke him, he doesn't bother to provoke others, but if others are okay, he doesn't mind hitting back and ruining the other person's face.

    "However, Madam Zhao is right. A pheasant cannot become a phoenix."

    Shi Yunnan slowly looked at Xie Keyue, revealing his sarcasm unabashedly.

    "Some people wear formal clothes in front of the rich and powerful young masters, but they don't necessarily have a bad bone."

    "..."

    Shi Yunnan's counterattack was so sharp, it was like a series of slaps falling down, and it didn't give people a chance to counterattack.

    The more Xie Ke froze, he didn't expect that the other party would cause him trouble in this situation.

    "No wonder I just looked at this necklace so familiar, I always feel like I have seen it somewhere."

    "It looks like the gloss is a bit worse than mine."

    The rich lady present was whispering, there was something gloating in the words.

    Madam Zhao is the most face-conscious. Originally, she was still laughing at Madam Lou's small-heartedness when she dressed up, but in the end she was pointed out by Shi Yunnan that she was wearing a fake diamond necklace?

    Afterwards, no matter whether the necklace was found to be true or false, it was enough to make her face down at this moment!

    The waiter sent to check the list hurried back.

    He watched the entire banquet hall almost freeze the atmosphere, and cautiously said, "Madam, I checked it, it's on the guest list..."

    "There is indeed no Mr. Shi Yunnan."

    The guests looked at each other, almost dumbfounded by the successive reversals——

    Oh my god.

    Dare to make trouble for a long time, Shi Yunnan really came in in troubled waters?

    Mrs. Zhao, who was feeling ashamed and angry, seemed to have grasped something. For the first time, she shouted in spite of her affection, "Come on, drive Shi Yunnan out of the banquet hall!"

    At the same time, a stern and eager roar came, "Sun Chengmin, you quickly shut up!"

    Sun Chengmin is Mrs. Zhao's real name.

    The real host of the banquet, Zhao Chengru, the chairman of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce, hurriedly pushed aside the crowd and hurried to him, his face was very ugly and uneasy.

    And what shocked everyone the most was that there was actually a figure at the entrance of the banquet hall——

    "Patriarch Luo? Why did he come?"

    "Isn't Mr. Zhao able to invite him? Isn't this a big face?"

    Luo Lingsheng controlled the wheelchair to slowly approach, and even the posture of sitting still did not affect Luo Lingsheng's shocking aura.

    The audience recovered from the initial exclamation and unconsciously turned into silence.

    Luo Lingsheng stopped at a distance of about three or four meters from the crowd, his eyes hidden under the lens looked closely, and he asked word by word

    "Who said that I would rush Shi Yunnan out?"

    The waiter approached with a basket of expensive foreign wines and put them on the table one by one, "Sirs, I am the waiter who is in charge of your deck. Please let me know if you have any needs."

    The waiter looked around with a smile on his face, and finally glanced at Shi Yunnan.

    Fu Ziyusuo looked at the wine on the table, "Oh, it's all spirits? How to play?"

    Xie Keyue said before everyone talked, “I don’t know or are interested in gambling at the wine table, so I won’t participate. However, if the game loses, I can share the punishment.”

    Yuan Rui knew his unconventional honesty, and responded, "Well, but the more you sit and watch, don't mix up."

    Do you not understand, have no interest, or deliberately take yourself out of this game? What an unstained white lotus.

    Shi Yunnan saw through and said nothing, "How to play? What to bet on?"

    Yuan Rui thought for a while and gave the gameplay, "Simpler, it's bigger than a dice. The loser blows the cup, loses one more time, and doubles the number of blows."

    "If you really can't drink it, spend 50,000 yuan for a glass of wine. The party who loses in the end will pay a round amount for this table tonight."

    In a wine table game that is purely luck, the odds of winning or losing are 50-50.

    The only difference between the two parties is that the number of people is different, and the pressure they need to bear after losing is different.

    Yuan Rui doesn't like taking advantage of others. "If you feel unfair, you can find someone else to help. Don't lose when the time comes, and you can't drink. We will blame us for bullying you in terms of numbers."

    Fu Ziyu raised his chin, "Who do you look down on?"

    When he thought he was going all over the famous nightclubs in the United States, he didn't know where to hang out? Fu Ziyu has never been afraid of anyone.

    "Yunnan, you guess. It's best to guess. If you lose, I'll drink it for you." Fu Ziyu didn't suffocate, "I won't drink them down tonight and call Dad at my feet. My surname is upside down. read."

    "Hey, pretend to be." Yuan Rui stabbed him, picked up the dice at the table and threw it to the waiter, "Come on, be fair."

    The waiter's eyes flickered for a moment, and he took the task.

    He looked very professionally and flicked twice before he pressed down the table fiercely, "Size? A bottle of wine in the first game."

    "I guess young." Shi Yunnan didn't hesitate.

    "Just right, I like to guess bigger." Yuan Rui replied.

    The waiter opened the dice board, six dice, a total of twenty-four points, too big.

    Seeing this, the waiter silently handed the foreign wine that had already been opened and poured to Shi Yunnan's table, "...this gentleman, you guessed it wrong."

    Shi Yunnan took the wine glass from the waiter and drank it leisurely.

    The more Xie Ke saw this, he fetched a glass of wine from the waiter, leaning on the sofa and drinking silently, the dim light concealed the sneers and calculations in his pupils——

    My friend Yuan Rui didn't mean anything bad. To be fair, Xie Keyue guessed that the other party was bound to ask the waiter to help roll the dice.

    He didn't trick the dice, only let the waiter move his hands and feet on the wine.

    Yes, both sides are uncertain about winning or losing, but the drinks handed out are completely controllable.

    After a few rounds of play, Shi Yunnan would drink the wine with ingredients sooner or later. When he couldn't stand the stamina of the strong wine and switched to offsetting the amount of alcohol, it was already too late.

    The waiter lowered his eyes and asked in a formal manner, "Gentlemen, will the second round continue?"

    "continue."

    There was another roll of dice, seated, and selected.

    Shi Yunnan continued, "Little."

    Yuan Rui had no objection, "I still guess the big one."

    At the opening, at 32 o'clock, Shi Yunnan was the loser.

    The waiter continued to pass up two glasses of spirits, "Sir, please."

    When Fu Zi met this, he was about to reach out to share a cup for his friend, but Shi Yunnan silenced him in a low voice, "Zi Yu, don't mix up with you. I will take care of winning or losing."

    "what?"

    "Wait and see."

    Shi Yunnan replied playfully, and quickly poured two glasses of spirits into his stomach.

    Fu Ziyu knew how much of his friend's drink, these three or two cups of spirits were indeed not a major event, he patiently waited for the next development.

    The wine table game continues until ten minutes later——

    Shi Yunnan put his hands on the wine table, his eyes began to be blurred, and there were dozens of glasses of spirits that hadn't been poured in front of him.

    An Kai, who eats melons, couldn't help but ridicule in his heart anymore, and yelled in front of him, "Some people are fateful and lose money wherever they go. What is it called? I'm back home!"

    "Yuan Rui, you are lucky enough for Koi today."

    Another friend counted the number of glasses that Shi Yunnan had lost, and then gloated.

    "Except for a few cups after losing three games at the beginning, there is nothing left...to say there are also seventy or eighty cups, right?"

    "You can say it before the start. If you can't drink it, fifty thousand is worth a cup."

    "Losing three or four million in one go, Master Shi Er has no panties left."

    Yuan Rui was touted by his friends and hummed with joy.

    He stared at Shi Yunnan, who was drunk and confused, and then at Fu Ziyu, who was safe and sound, "Drink us tonight and call to Dad at his feet? Shi Yunnan has become such a virtue, and he didn't see you help him drink a drink., What shit friend?"
