"My God, is that... a pink diamond?! So huge, it must be at least ten million, right?"

Ye Yanni was the first to exclaim, her eyes glazing over, her hand involuntarily reaching towards the pink diamond.

Zhou Ru and Lin Wan were also staring blankly, their eyes fixated on the pink diamond without blinking.

In this world, there isn't a single woman who could resist the temptation of this pink diamond.

Ye Jingyi was no different, staring dumbfounded at Jiang Chen. Her face was filled with an overwhelming joy that struck her soul.

Shen Zhui's complexion changed drastically, and in a panic, he blurted out, "Impossible, that's fake, how could you possibly afford such a significant pink diamond? It must be fake!"

He simply couldn't accept the fact and doggedly insisted that the pink diamond was a fake.

The others also froze, right, could it be fake?

"Yours is the fake one."

Jiang Chen was provoked by Shen Zhui and let out a cold laugh, snatching away Shen Zhui's diamond ring.

Whoosh!

Jiang Chen, holding his own pink diamond, activated the cultivation technique from last night's dream. A faint blood-red light flashed across the diamond. Since the pink diamond was already red, nobody noticed the blood light, so the mysterious power within Jiang Chen flowed into the ring.

Then, Jiang Chen struck Shen Zhui's diamond ring hard with his own pink diamond.

"Puff—"

Shen Zhui's diamond ring shattered as if it were made of paper at the touch of the pink diamond.

Shattered, shattered?

The people around were dumbstruck once again.

No one could believe it was true. Even if Shen Zhui's ring was made of glass, it would have some hardness, how could it shatter like this?

"This..."

"This, this really is fake?"

Zhou Ru and the others truly couldn't accept it but had no choice but to.

Because, the fact lay before their eyes; Shen Zhui's diamond ring had been crushed into dregs by Jiang Chen.

"See that? Who's got the fake one? You still have the nerve to say you're educated? With your education, you propose with a fake diamond ring turned into dregs? You still have the cheek to say you have family wealth? Your family wealth is probably all fake too!"

Jiang Chen didn't let it go, and with a cold sneer, he hurled relentless contempt at Shen Zhui:

"Didn't you say you have business acumen? Is all your business acumen used for making fakes? What about your insight? Is it the kind of insight that makes fakes that others can't see through?

And you still have the face to tell me to leave? You still have the face to call me a fraud?

You're the fraud!

A fraud in love! A fraud in money! A fraud with diamond rings!

You should be the one to leave!"

Jiang Chen's voice was emphatic, echoing throughout the entire villa.

Shen Zhui became stupefied.

Looking dumbly at the diamond ring reduced to powder in his hand, listening to Jiang Chen's scathing reprimand, his whole heart shattered.

He had come with high hopes, wishing to win the beauty and return, only to be kicked by Jiang Chen first, then gagged by the reality of marriage, and now even his last resort was destroyed.

"Wah—" Shen Zhui suddenly started to cry.

"Thud—Stop it, just stop..."

Shen Zhui completely broke down, kneeling in front of Jiang Chen, sobbing uncontrollably, "I'm the fraud, I won't fight with you anymore, I give up."

After finishing his words, he didn't wait for others to react and, wiping his tears, he ran out of the Ye family's home.

The villa was completely silent, everyone simply stared at Jiang Chen, none being able to grasp the situation.

The events had unfolded too quickly—not even a few minutes had passed, and there was the honorable Shen Zhui, standing as the accused, now driven to tears and fleeing from the scene by this shabbily-dressed Jiang Chen.

Oh my God, what kind of combat power does Jiang Chen possess?

Is this the famed artillery of Daili Country?

And wasn't Jiang Chen supposed to be a scumbag? A freeloader? The former son-in-law who relied on the Li family?

But how could he be so wealthy all of a sudden, casually mentioning ten million and even giving away a diamond worth ten million?

Could such a generous gift really come from a freeloading scumbag?

Give me a break!

Everyone was dumbfounded, so confused they couldn't find their bearings.

...

It took a while before Lin Wan snapped back to reality.

She jumped up and demanded of Jiang Chen, "Jiang Chen, you didn't buy that diamond ring, did you? Tell me the truth, you can't deceive Jing Yi."

Jiang Chen frowned and took a deep breath. He was too proud to claim someone else's gift as his own, "Yes, the diamond ring isn't mine. A friend gifted it to me."

"You see? Jiang Chen is nothing but a liar!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Wan's spirits lifted, and she exclaimed, "That ring must have been swindled from someone's hands. He has always been presenting Jing Yi with things he conned others out of, fooling her. He has no skills or talent of his own, and all his money and possessions must surely be tricked out of Zhang Long."

The mention of Zhang Long shocked Ye Jianxiong. "Zhang Long? That Dragon Lord?"

Zhou Ru and the others turned pale. They were legitimate businesspeople, and though Zhang Long was influential, they saw him as social scum, someone to steer clear of.

"That's right!" Lin Wan confirmed with a nod. "The same Dragon Lord. Can one just casually accept money from such social scum? These ill-gotten gains will definitely bring trouble to the Ye Family. When Jiang Chen runs off, it'll be you who are troubled!"

Zhou Ru and the others came to a realization.

Lin Wan was right. Accepting things obtained through deceit meant that if the victims couldn't find Jiang Chen, they would indeed come looking for them.

And what's worse, the victim was none other than Zhang Long. Provoking him would be a disaster for the Ye Family.

"You liar, you good-for-nothing, get out of here right now!"

"Get lost! Get out of our house!"

"We don't welcome you here, beat it!"

Zhou Ru, Ye Jianxiong, and Ye Yanni all shouted at Jiang Chen together, with Zhou Ru pushing him at the same time.

Ye Jingyi, at a loss, could only watch as Jiang Chen was pushed out of the Ye Family's door.

Jiang Chen felt so helpless. He could fight and argue with Shen Zhui, but he had no good approach when it came to Ye Jingyi's family.

Meanwhile, Ye Jingyi rushed to send Lin Wan away promptly, then followed after Jiang Chen with furrowed brows, pulling him to stand at the doorstep of the villa. "Jiang Chen, tell me honestly, where did this diamond ring really come from? Is it from Zhang Long?"

Jiang Chen shook his head, explaining softly, "No, do you remember? That day at the hospital, I saved a patient, and their daughter, who is quite wealthy, found out we were getting married. To show her gratitude, she gifted the diamond ring."

Ye Jingyi recalled the event, then raised her eyebrows, "But how could you accept such an expensive item? And how do you plan to repay her?"

Jiang Chen gave a wry smile, "Honestly, I didn't know it was such a valuable item at first."

"How can you be so careless?" Ye Jingyi glared at Jiang Chen, before saying, "Also, when you came to my home, you only brought gifts from others? You've truly disappointed me."

Jiang Chen startled, quickly said, "No, that's not the case, I brought a gift too."

It was then that he remembered—the contract he had brought along had been carelessly placed on the shoe cabinet upon his arrival.

Right, he had another grand gift, certainly something that could win the Ye Family's approval.

With this thought, Jiang Chen immediately ran back towards the Ye Family's home.
