"Mr. Lu, I knew you weren't simple. You refused to sit in the main seat earlier. Now you're at the same table again!" Master Liu smiled.
"Master Liu is too kind!" Lu Fan chuckled. "I'm honored by the Bai family head's regard!"
"Mr. Lu, do you know each other?" Bai Tianchen asked in surprise. "Master Liu is a close friend of my grandfather's. How could you..."
"It's quite a coincidence, we met at an antique market," Master Liu said with a smile. "Little brother Lu is truly remarkable, his eyesight is extraordinary! In a few more years, I might not be able to match him." Su Dan Novel Network
"So Mr. Lu not only understands medicine but also antiques?"
Bai Tianchen chuckled, finding Lu Fan increasingly mysterious.
The last time Lu Fan treated the old man in the courtyard, he already felt Lu Fan was extraordinary. Now it seemed he was far more than that.
"I just dabble in it, I don't understand much," Lu Fan said humbly with a smile.
"Little brother, you are too modest. With your discernment that day, you are a master of antiques. If you are interested in the future, we must have a good exchange!" Master Liu said frankly.
At the main table, many people looked at Lu Fan with envy. Lu Fan, at such a young age, was sought after by so many prominent figures, suggesting he was no ordinary person.
"Speaking of antiques, I almost forgot."
Lu Fan took out a porcelain bowl. "This is my gift for Old Master Bai. I hope he doesn't dislike it!"
Upon receiving the porcelain bowl, Old Master Bai was bewildered. Although he loved antiques, he didn't understand them well. The blue and white bowl in his hand looked like an ordinary bowl.
"Mr. Lu, you're too stingy," Bai Xue said with a smile. "You're giving an ordinary bowl as a birthday gift!"
Many people in the banquet hall were also surprised. In their opinion, Lu Fan wouldn't be like this.
"This is no ordinary bowl, it's worth over a million!"
Lin Ke'er spoke up. Lu Fan wouldn't lie to her, and this was what Lu Fan had told her.
"Over a million?"
Everyone stood up and looked at the blue and white porcelain bowl. Not many porcelain bowls could fetch a million.
Bai Tianchen asked in surprise, "Mr. Lu, this blue and white porcelain bowl looks ordinary. It doesn't seem like an ancient treasure. Can it really be auctioned for a million?"
"Boss Bai, are you questioning me?" Lu Fan shrugged. "If it can't be sold for that price, Master Liu next to us would probably stand up immediately."
As he spoke, everyone's gaze turned to Master Liu. They saw him smiling, "If little brother Lu says it's worth a million, he's absolutely right!"
What was said casually was taken seriously by the listeners. Everyone looked at Lu Fan with even greater admiration. Being able to get Master Liu to say that was enough to explain everything.
"Mr. Lu's participation in the old man's birthday banquet is already a great honor. How can we accept such a valuable item?" Bai Tianchen said quickly. "Please take it back, Mr. Lu!"
"Once something is given, there's no reason to take it back," Lu Fan waved his hand. "This is a birthday gift, and we can't break the rules."
Bai Tianchen hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Since Mr. Lu is so sentimental, I won't refuse."
Lu Fan also nodded slightly. Although this blue and white porcelain bowl was precious, he couldn't attend Old Master Bai's birthday banquet without bringing anything.
After the feast, Lu Fan went to Old Master Bai's side and felt his pulse. He smiled with satisfaction, "After a few days of recuperation, the old man has improved a lot."
"It's all thanks to Mr. Lu's miraculous healing. Otherwise, the old man would have been in danger," Bai Tianchen said with a smile. "If Mr. Lu has any requests, please don't hesitate to tell me, as long as I can arrange it!"
"We'll talk about it later!" Lu Fan smiled. "I've taken your supreme card. If I'm still not satisfied, it would be too ungracious."
"A mere supreme card is nothing," Bai Tianchen said with a smile.
Meanwhile, in a corner of the banquet hall, Liu Xuanhao and others were also eating, but their hearts were filled with mixed emotions. At the Holiday Club, they had mocked Lu Fan endlessly, and now they were the most ridiculous.
After the banquet ended, everyone dispersed. Bai Xue looked at Lu Fan. "Mr. Lu, I'll send you back!"
"No need!" Lu Fan smiled. "We'll take a taxi back. We can't trouble Miss Bai!"
"Why is Mr. Lu being so polite?" Bai Xue smiled. "I have something I want to discuss with Mr. Lu."
"Just say it directly if you have something!" Lu Fan asked curiously. "Miss Bai isn't one to beat around the bush."
"There are too many people now. I'll tell you tonight when we find a quiet place!" Bai Xue said seriously.
"Find a quiet place?"
Lin Ke'er was stunned, feeling that the words sounded strange. Hearing them repeated, Bai Xue also became embarrassed. "I didn't mean it like that. I just have something to discuss."
"Alright, alright," Lu Fan said helplessly. "Since you have something to discuss, let's talk tonight!"
Bai Xue nodded solemnly and left with satisfaction.
"Brother Lu Fan, I embarrassed you today," Lin Ke'er said aggrievedly. "It's all my fault for being too greedy."
"What are you talking about!" Lu Fan smiled. "You didn't embarrass me at all. Those people were never good people! One day, they will taste their own medicine!"
"I believe Brother Lu Fan can do it!" Lin Ke'er nodded.
Just as they were about to leave, Liu Xuanhao and a few others walked over. "Earlier at the Holiday Club, we were blind and didn't recognize your eminence. We hope you can be magnanimous!"
"I've never blamed you!" Lu Fan glanced at them. "Why do you have to be like this!"
"It was our fault. We judged people by their appearance. If it wasn't for you at the Holiday Club, we would have been in big trouble," Liu Xuanhao said in a low voice.
"Let's not dwell on the past!" Lu Fan shrugged, took Lin Ke'er's hand, and left.
Liu Xuanhao and the others stood there for a long time before recovering. After this incident, he finally understood that no matter who you deal with, you can't be too ruthless, or you'll be the one to suffer in the end.
Returning to Pingmin Village, Lu Fan took a shower and changed into clean clothes, feeling much refreshed.
"Xiao Fan, you're going out so late?" Granny Guihua asked. "Is something wrong?"
"Nothing at all. Brother Lu Fan is going on a date!" Lin Ke'er stepped forward, with a hint of jealousy.
"Cough, cough, Granny, don't listen to her nonsense!" Lu Fan said awkwardly. "A friend needs to discuss something with me, and I can't refuse!"
"Then go early and remember to come back early, don't be too late!" Granny Guihua nodded. "So Granny doesn't worry!"
"Alright!" Lu Fan nodded and looked at Lin Ke'er. "You little rascal, I'm usually so good to you, but you're tattling on me at a crucial moment!"
"Hmph, what I said is the truth!"
Lin Ke'er pouted and closed the door. For some reason, her heart was in a mess.
Lu Fan shook his head helplessly and left Pingmin Village, heading to a nearby coffee shop.
