At this moment, sitting inside the gift box in Lin Yuan’s hand was a half-hand-sized jade Buddha sculpture.
You can buy one on the streets for 12 yuan.
It is basically cheap.
But Lin Yuan and the guests were quite surprised since the Buddha sculpture isn’t made of ordinary jade.
It is made of imperial green jade!
Imperial green is the best of its kind, the emperor among all jades!
The imperial green jade has the best color and the highest value.
At this moment, the imperial green jade Buddha sculpture in Lin Yuan’s hand had an unusually bright green hue as if it was about to drip out.
The imperial green jade is very expensive.
If an expert estimates the value, this imperial green jade Buddha sculpture is worth at least tens of millions.
Tens of millions may not be such a big value especially that everyone present has impressive backgrounds as well.
But the gifts given by Mei Yuxian to the juniors were expensive enough to show how much wealth and grandeur the Mei family has.
This makes many people jealous.
Of course, they don’t envy this imperial green jade Buddha sculpture.
Although expensive, they sure have the means to have a few in their homes.
What they envy is what the gifts represent.
Mei Yuxian gave gifts to the other junior’s worth about hundreds of thousands each.
But this gift given to Lin Yuan is worth tens of millions.
It is enough to see that Mei Yuxian likes and values Lin Yuan more.
The Mei family is different from other big families.
In the Mei family, Mei Yuxian is basically in charge.
As long as she decides on something, it is considered final.
So, this is equivalent to Lin Yuan getting to the good side of the entire Mei family.
The Lin family is originally a top family, plus getting the support of the Mei family, Lin Yuan’s influence is getting more terrifying.
In the eyes of many people, Lin Yuan was just the heir of a major family in Jiangbei.
But now, his influence has suddenly increased a lot.
“Thank you, Sister Yuxian, for the gift. It is so expensive.” Lin Yuan smiled and then closed the gift box again.
“It is nothing. Did you like it?” Mei Yuxian asked.
“I like it very much.” Lin Yuan smiled and then put the gift box into his pocket.
Seeing that Lin Yuan liked the gift, Mei Yuxian nodded in satisfaction and was about to turn around to leave.
Everyone was all ready to look away.
But suddenly, Lin Yuan yelled. “Sister Yuxian, wait!”
“Hmn?”
Hearing Lin Yuan, Mei Yuxian turned her head and looked suspiciously at Lin Yuan.
The guests also looked at Lin Yuan strangely.
Under the gaze of everyone, Lin Yuan raise the painting scroll in his hand and then said with a smile: “The gift from Sister Yuxian is so expensive that I can’t receive it in vain. I also have a gift for Sister Yuxian.”
All the guests laughed at the idea since they have never seen a junior reciprocate gifts.
Do juniors ever return the gifts of the elders?
How can there be such a thing?
And what can Lin Yuan give back? The imperial jade green is already worth tens of millions, can he give something of the same value?
It would be better not to give back.
Mei Yuxian does not care whether the gift is expensive or not. But she does not feel the need for Lin Yuan to give something in return.
Mei Yuxian smiled and said, “Xiao Yuan does not need to give something in return for my gift anymore. After all, Sister Yuxian is older than you. I should be the one giving the gift and not expecting anything in return.”
Juniors and elders, that is how much different Lin Yuan and Mei Yuxian’s status are.
But breaking seniority plays an important role in Lin Yuan’s plan.
Lin Yuan planned to return the gift to downplay this kind of seniority.
He wants to stand in the position of peers!
This is the main reason why Lin Yuan intends to return the gift.
Therefore, Lin Yuan cannot follow Mei Yuxian’s words just now, anyway he is not in a hurry.
“Well, Sister Yuxian has to see this first, and then decide whether to accept it or not. Is that okay?”
If Lin Yuan directly insisted that Mei Yuxian accept it, then she would definitely refuse.
But he wants Mei Yuxian to see the gift first; naturally, she wouldn’t be able to refuse.
Mei Yuxian can’t even refuse it without looking at it.
After all, Mei Yuxian has a very good impression of this young man, Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan called her sister. If it weren’t for Lin Yuan and Gui Qingtong’s matter, she would have wanted to regard Lin Yuan as a younger brother.
So, Mei Yuxian nodded helplessly and said, “Okay. Let me take a look before I decide.”
The guests didn’t think that Lin Yuan would give anything expensive in particular.
Mei Yuxian’s tone was also just cooperating.
Lin Yuan could hear the same tone in Mei Yuxian’s speaking, but it did not matter.
Because he knew Mei Yuxian’s love for this painting and how much she wanted to have it in a very long time.
Lin Yuan raised the scroll, shaking it, and the painting immediately unfolded.
Everyone saw a black and white ink plum painting.
The plum blossoms were hanging upside down.
The branches are dense and scattered. The branches are full of dense plum blossoms, or buddings. The front part is leaning backward in various poses like there were a thousand jade beads hanging and scattered on the silver branches.
The white flowers and dried branches mirrored each other. The air was so refreshing that it was clear as the plum blossoms. The dry branches were portrayed like a bow and an autumn moon full of energy. The distribution of the plum blossoms has a sense of rhythm. The long branches are sparse while the short branches are dense. The crossing branches are especially full of stamens. The centers of the hook petal dots are concise.
Very few people knew how priceless the painting was.
Most people don’t see anything special about the painting, only a few.
And Mei Yuxian stared at this ink plum painting closely after Lin Yuan unfolded it.
Mei Yuxian carefully studied the plum blossoms on the painting.
After looking all over the painting, Mei Yuxian quickly looked at the part where a red seal or sign of the artist was placed.
Sure enough, she could see Wang Mian’s in the red seal.
There is also a very famous ancient poem in the upper left corner of the painting. contemporary romance
After initially confirming, Mei Yuxian asked in a trembling tone, “This...this is Wang Mian’s the ‘The Ink Plum Blossom’?”
Lin Yuan was not surprised at Mei Yuxian’s reaction because he knew that Mei Yuxian liked this painting very much and wanted to buy it for so long but couldn’t.
So Lin Yuan smiled and nodded. “It is.”
Getting Lin Yuan’s confirmation, Mei Yuxian became even more excited.
She stretched out her slender jade hand and touched the plum blossoms on the ink plum painting with some excitement.
Her jade fingers lightly tapped on the plum blossoms.
Mei Yuxian really liked this painting.
Without hesitation, Mei Yuxian turned her head and asked Lin Yuan directly: “Sister Yuxian really liked this painting ‘The Ink Plum Blossom’. This is worth 50 million yuan, so can I ask Xiao Yuan to sell it to me?”
“Sister Yuxian is willing to pay 100 million!”
