Chapter 1162
Yuki was a little surprised. She wondered why these people weren''t looking for Somoset but Ernest
instead.
However, she still replied with a smile, "Uncle Ernest is at home. Uncle Somoset and grandpa are
all here too. If you''d like to see them, I can go and report to them."
Boss Xu, who was the leader, smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It''s okay. We are here to look for
Ernest today. We want to ask him for a favor about something!"
"Why are you guys looking for Uncle Ernest?" Yuki asked puzzledly.
Boss Xu answered, "Well, we were in Pentagon Street just now and saw Ernest''s daughter, Momo.
She was with a young man."
Hearing this, Yuki couldn''t help but frown. Obviously, the young man was Fade.
Boss Xu didn''t notice Yuki''s expression and continued, "At that time, the young man bought an
Einstein Zhang''s calligraphy painting for 25 million yuan."
Speaking of calligraphy painting, Yuki couldn''t help but interject, "Isn''t that calligraphy painting a
counterfeit?"
Hearing this, Boss Xu stared at her and questioned, "Who said that it''s a counterfeit?"
Boss Huang asked, "Since you know the calligraphy painting, is that young man really in the Soo
Manor? Tell us, where is he?"
"That''s right. Take us to him!" Everyone urged.
"The person you guys are looking for is Fade?" Yuki was a little dumbfounded. She didn''t expect
these big bosses toe here to look for Fade.
Boss Xu nodded and answered, "Of course, we are here to look for Fade. We only wanted to ask
him whether he would sell the calligraphy painting he just bought to us. We would like to keep it as a
collection too."
When it came to calligraphy painting, these big bosses were excited.
"Who wouldn''t want to collect such a genuine piece of artwork! I am willing to pay 200 million yuan
for it!"

"200 million yuan? Winson, aren''t you too stingy? The starting price of that painting is at least 300
million yuan, okay?"
"Don''t talk about the starting price, I am willing to pay 400 million yuan." "Hey, I''m willing to pay up
to 800 million yuan for that painting!" "Old Hu, you are toovish. I can''t afford this price!"
When Yuki heard these words, she was a little dumbfounded.
"It turns out that the calligraphy painting is genuine. Not only that, it is worth hundreds of millions of
yuan. This... this is simply..." She was stunned at the thought of what happened just now and looked
absolutely astonished.
Upon seeing this, the excited bosses asked aloud, "Hey, don''t just stand still here. Take us to that
young man!"
Yuki''s expression was extremely ghastly. She stammered, "H-he is no longer in the Soo Manor."
"What? He''s not in the Soo Manor? Where is he then?" The big bosses eximed.
Yuki''s expression became even more ashen. She revealed, "He... he just left. He was still at the
gate just now, I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Boss Xu and the rest rushed out of the Soo Manor in a gush.
They dashed towards the gate and began to look for Fade.
"Hey you, why didn''t you tell us earlier! You just wasted our time!"
"That''s right! If that young man leaves, you will have caused us to lose a great opportunity."
"You actually made us lose the calligraphy painting that is worth hundreds of millions of yuan. This
is simply..."
Listening to theints of these big shots, Yuki felt her whole body shake in disbelief. She
couldn''t believe that what was happening now was real.
She had no idea that Fade, who she still despised just now, became a target sought after by many
big shots. Besides, it was now very likely for him to earn hundreds of millions of yuan in a short
time.
Putting aside indirect descendants of the Soo family like Yuki, even direct descendants rarely could
spend such arge sum of money and earn such arge asset at one go.
However, after thinking about this, Yuki still tried tofort herself, "Perhaps he has already left and
won''t get those hundreds of millions of yuan. Moreover, even if he manages to earn it, t-t-that...
That''s nothing. Compared to Master Yao, he is nowhere close to him." "Yes, that''s it. He is not even
close to Master Yao!
It''s not worth even mentioning, it''s not..." Yuki muttered silently and left as she was trying to
hypnotize herself.
At this moment, on the roadside outside the Soo Manor, the big shots found Fade. They rified
their intentions and wanted to bid for the calligraphy painting.
Originally, Fade wanted to give that calligraphy painting as a gift. However, now that he was
rejected, he had no interest in that painting as well. Hence, he straight away sold the calligraphy
painting to Boss Andrew Xu, the real estate tycoon in South Bay City.
The remaining bosses could only leave with regret. However, the news of this spread quickly after
by word of mouth.
Soon, almost all the people in the upper ss of South Bay City knew that Boss Xu had spent 600
million yuan to purchase a calligraphy painting of Einstein Zheng from a young man.
After Boss Xu purchased the calligraphy painting, he learned that Fade was looking for a ce to
stay at. Hence, he found a luxurious vi among his properties that was under hispany''s name
and gave it to Fade for free.
With that said, he took Fade to the vi to check in.
At this moment, in the Soo Manor, Ernest, Somoset and the rest had just learned about the
purchase of the ancient calligraphy painting from the social media of the upper ss society in
South Bay City.
For a while, everyone was speechless and didn''t know what to say.
Finally, Somoset let out a cold snort. He turned around and left with a displeased expression. He
also blocked the discussion of the topic in his social media.
Meanwhile, Memo walked into Egbert''s study room and asked, "Grandpa, did you want to see me?"
Egbert smiled. He pointed to the seat in front of him and said, "Momo, have a seat!"
Seeing as Momo sat down, Egbert sighed. He looked at Momo and asked, "Momo, do you know
what am I going to talk to you about since I called you here?"
Speaking of this, Momo''s heart skipped a beat. Then, she asked, "Grandpa, did you want to talk to
me about the arranged marriage?"
Egbert nodded and replied, "Absolutely. How are you getting along with Hector?"
Speaking of Hector, Momo''s expression fell in an instant. She took a deep breath and braced
herself before telling Egbert, "Grandpa, you know that I don''t like Hector and I don''t want to marry
him."
Upon hearing this, Egbert looked slightly displeased. He looked at Momo and advised her earnestly,
"Momo, you didn''t get along much with Hector, but you young people would develop feelings if you
guys get along with each other more often. After all, Hector is an excellent boy. You will enjoy being
with him."
"I..." Momo felt very ufortable and almost burst into tears when she heard this. After all, when
she was in the hall just now, she thought that Egbert was supporting her. It was only after she came
over that she realized her grandfather was not in support of her rtionship and decision.
