Insufficient balance

  Everyone, including Mu Zi Xuan who had thought of the possibility, was startled by Gong Sun Jian's appearance. A string of real Tianzhu, worth only a few hundred thousand yuan at most, no matter how precious it is, even if it's something left behind by Zhe Yang, would be auctioned off for hundreds of millions in the hands of connoisseurs. Although it's said to be priceless, what rich family doesn't have a few strings at home to ward off evil spirits?

  So even if Xiao Zhenfeng considered the true value of the Tianzhu, a person who could be Wind Four's brother, this amount of money was still affordable for Wind Four. However, he didn't take it seriously, just like Ye Yizhe when he first met Mu Ziyan, she casually tossed out a necklace worth hundreds of thousands. To them, money had become just a number, not bread, not a house.

  But Gong Sunjian's attitude made everyone hold their breath.

  A Gong Sunjian who can casually give away a car worth hundreds of millions, actually held that string of Tianzhu like he was holding a treasure, could this ordinary-looking stone be even more precious than his sports car?

  No one would believe this if it got out.

  So many people with faces and heads didn't see the value of that thing, Gong Sun Jian must be trying to humiliate this young man.

  Xiao Xianfeng thought to himself and gave a look to the young man beside him, who understood and walked forward, looking at Gong Sunjian and saying: "Sword brother, isn't this just a broken stone? How expensive can it be? Your car alone is worth 20 million US dollars. Just this one point and this poor kid can't compare to you. You don't have to pretend to be so downhearted."

  He knew that if he continued to speak, it would trigger Xiao Tong's wrath. Everyone was very clear about the fact that Xiao Zhenfeng wanted to form an alliance with the Gong Sun family through marriage. This was also the key to the problem. The person who opposed it the most was Xiao Tong. Sometimes, he didn't even know what Xiao Tong was thinking. The Gong Sun family was so powerful, and as long as they could form an alliance, the Xiao family's entry into the Huaxia Business Alliance would be imminent, becoming the ninth family of the Huaxia Business Alliance, bringing glory to their ancestors. This was something that Xiao Tong had been unable to accomplish his whole life, but now it seemed within reach. Yet, his father, Xiao Tong, had always opposed this matter, leaving him baffled.

  Although dissatisfied with Xiao Tong, Xiao Zhenfeng still did not dare to touch this reverse scale. The three siblings had already controlled the Xiao family, but this was only given to them by Xiao Tong. As long as Xiao Tong said one word, not a single star or point of the Xiao family would belong to them. This point, no one understood; everyone thought they could be independent and grasp the Xiao family, but they didn't understand that Xiao Tong only needed one word, and it didn't require much brainpower at all.

  Where did all the so-called betrayals come from, where did all the so-called power struggles come from? They were all lies fabricated by the family to deceive those ignorant commoners. Even if he didn't care about familial relationships, even if the three siblings completely broke off with their father, they would still end up with nothing.

  To put it bluntly, they are just working for Xiao Lei, nothing more. So even if Xiao Lei lends him a bit of courage, he wouldn't dare to confront him head-on. For such a ruthless man, power and money have already taken control of everything, as long as Xiao Lei doesn't take these things away from him, he'll do anything, and the reason he's willing to go all out to develop the Xiao family into what it is today is simply because he likes these things.

  The so-called good and bad of successors, their differences, are only whether or not they have seen through these principles.

  Once you see through it, if you want to do something on this platform of family, then you must go and strive.

  This poor kid in front of him, hasn't had much to do with Xiao Yu Ling yet, even if he really has something to do with her, it doesn't matter if he helps Gong Sun Jian openly or secretly, but once Xiao Feng makes a statement, no matter how much he dislikes that person, he must make himself recognize it.

  Today, for the sake of this little one, Xiao Tong has already shown some dissatisfaction. How could the clever Xiao Zhenfeng add fuel to the fire?

  Xiao Xuanfeng thought of this and felt even more resentful towards Ye Yizhe. If he hadn't appeared, there wouldn't have been so many troubles. So when looking at Gong Sunjian, his eyes also held some expectation, hoping that he would thoroughly defeat this poor kid, making him lose face and not dare to stay here again, and roll back to his own school.

  Xiao Yuling and Feng Si Niang looked at Ye Yi Zhe with concern, wanting to see some clues from his face, but he only had a faint smile, an expression that hadn't changed since the moment he came in, letting their hopes fall through.

  The young man from the Xiao family saw that Gong Sun Jian didn't react, so he stretched out his hand to take over the broken Tianzhu and smash it. At most, it's just a few million, and no young person in the Xiao family would care about it.

  "No!"

  The voices, however, came out of Xiao Yu Ling and Feng Si Niang's mouths at the same time. In fact, there was also Mu Zi Xuan, but she opened her mouth a beat slower, and everyone didn't notice her action either. Her clenched fists had already revealed bulging veins, and her tightly furrowed eyebrows showed that her heart was not calm at this moment.

  The Ye Yizhe in front of her, no matter how much she dislikes him, is after all the man who was once her fiancé. A mentality that wants to see Ye Yizhe make a fool of himself but also wants to see him defeat everyone with his proud and aloof attitude has been spreading in her heart. She doesn't know why, she only knows that she doesn't want Ye Yizhe to be looked down upon by others, after all he is the man who although she is unwilling to admit it, is still the fiancé she has thought about for twenty years.

  Although she knew it was wrong, Mu Zi Xuan still had a feeling that Ye Yi Zhe was hers. She could throw away his things, scold him or hit him if she wanted to, but others couldn't even think about it.

  If a person spends his whole life thinking of how to escape from the desert island, then once he succeeds, his heart will remain there forever.

  Because it was already one of his dreams, a dream he knew was wrong but was willing to keep having.

  Her voice made Gong Sun Jian's whole body shake, and he saw that the person from Xiao's house was about to grab his hand. He hastily retreated a step, quickly withdrawing his hand, shouting "Stop!" Then, looking at the unharmed Tianzhu, he gently stroked it in front of his eyes, his gaze more excited than when he had shown off his newly bought Ferrari in front of them all those years ago, as if the Tianzhu was his life itself.

  As long as it's not in the business world, Gong Sun Jian has always been a sloppy person. Once he encounters something he likes, he becomes infatuated, just like a child, and often makes people overlook his true self.

  The Xiang family, especially Xiao Chenfeng and another middle-aged man, were secretly thinking that something was wrong. This young man named Ye Yizhe might bring more than just surprises.

  "Lian Hua Tian Zhu, I really didn't think that Lian Hua Tian Zhu actually existed." Gong Sun Jian gently stroked it while staring at the Tian Zhu in his hand, and for a moment, there was no one else in his eyes, not even his beloved Xiao Yu Ling. He slowly narrated, "For Tibetan Buddhism, the greatest is undoubtedly the Lotus-born Master who attained enlightenment in the White Horse Temple a thousand years ago. Even the current Phil Yang Master, who is considered to be another possible living Buddha, cannot replace him. Although I don't believe in Buddhism, I can only look up to such a figure with reverence, without any distractions. I once had the good fortune of listening to one of Phil Yang Master's lectures, and the tranquility it brought was beyond what any piano master's concerto could compare to. At that time, I kept thinking, if Lotus-born Master were reborn, what would it be like?"

  "Lotus-born Master?" Few people present were uneducated, and most had heard of this living Buddha named after the founder of Dharma. It was because of them that today's Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism existed. Although they didn't understand why Gong Sun Jian suddenly mentioned him, out of gentlemanly elegance, none interrupted him.

  "Yes, Master Lianhuasheng." Gong Sunjian nodded and said with great certainty, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the Tianzhu of the Tibetan Buddhist lineage passed down by Master Lianhuasheng!"

  I never knew why Bai Ma was banned, who can tell me?
