The whole Aurous Hill was watching the extremely lavish wedding through the hazy frosted crystal glass.While they were extremely envious of the couple and their setting, they couldn’t help but wonder who the couple who held their wedding in the Sky Garden was.Moreover, they were so mysterious that there were only two of them at their wedding. Not a single relative nor friend was present, not even a witness!On the crystal stage, Charlie took Claire’s hand and retrieved the jade necklace he had prepared for a long time.“Claire, this is my wedding anniversary gift for you. I hope you like it!”Claire stared at the crystal-clear jade necklace and exclaimed, “This…isn’t this the prized possession of Emerald Court? Charlie, how and where did you get this?”Claire was astonished when she said it.Was Charlie the mysterious billionaire in the video?How else could he have had this jade necklace?But…But it didn’t make any sense!She was very clear about Charlie, how could he be

Overnight, the grand wedding at the Sky Garden became the hottest topic in the city.However, the bride and groom of the wedding remained unknown.Charlie drove the modified BMW 520 and went home with Claire.Claire was still immersed in great happiness, almost as if she was laying in the center of cloud nine. She couldn’t help but ask, “How did you book the Sky Garden? They’ve never allowed that ever.”Charlie smiled coyly and said, “Frankly, the senior executive of Shangri-La is a good friend of mine back at the orphanage. We used to share our hard and difficult times together and I always shared half of my steamed bun with him, so when I asked him for a favor, he said ok.”Claire nodded lightly. “Oh, I see. Why haven’t I heard about this before?”“I have a lot of friends at the orphanage, I might need at least three days to talk about all of them. I’ve never mentioned anything because I thought you didn’t like listening to it.”Claire uttered in an earnest tone, “You are my h

Wide and radiant smiles were plastered on the in-laws’ faces when Charlie said that he would buy a better car for them tomorrow.What Jacob didn’t realize was that he had just missed out on the top-spec 760.Claire was a little worried. After returning to their room and washing up, she quietly asked, “Do you really still have the money to buy a new car? I have some secret stash here, take it tomorrow!”Charlie waved his hands quickly. “No, I don’t need your money. I still have some, it’s enough.”Claire mumbled apologetically, “I’m so sorry, I didn’t know my dad and mom would be like this…”“What are you talking about? Your parents are my parents too. We are a family, I’m glad to be able to shower them with gifts once in a while.”Charlie lay on his tiny bed on the floor and said with a gentle smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll go and get a new car for dad tomorrow morning!”Claire smiled warmly. “Thank you, Charlie!”Charlie chuckled. “The pleasure is mine, my dear!”Claire suddenly b

The people in the Audi showroom spotted Charlie as soon as he was getting closer and closer. One of the salespersons blurted, “F*ck, it’s the e-bike guy who bought the BMW 760!”“D*mn, I’m going to stop him and persuade him to buy the top-spec Audi A8 even if I have to lick his boots!”“Yes!”All of a sudden, a large number of Audi salesmen rushed out and surrounded him.“Sir! Please come and see the latest top-spec Audi A8 in our showroom!”“Sir! Our A8 is very powerful. It uses a W12 engine, which is much better than the BMW 760 V12 engine!”Charlie arched his eyebrows curiously. “Really? Is it that great?”“Yes!” An Audi salesman marched forward hurriedly and started, “Boss, let me explain to you. Our W12 engine is divided into two sides and one side can be turned off as you please. It is more fuel-efficient when you turn off half of the twelve cylinders!”Charlie growled contemptuously, “Are you out of your mind? Why would I buy a twelve-cylinder car and turn off six cylind

The man grinned. He pinched Lily’s face and said, “You’re my woman now, why do you still want to be with him? I don’t allow other men to touch my woman!”Lily hurriedly persuaded with a coy voice, “Don’t worry, Jerome, I haven’t let him touch me since we got together. He’s so filthy! My body is always yours and only yours, it’s exclusively for you alone!”Then, she continued, “Actually, I wanted to break up with him as soon as the restaurant started operating, but I didn’t know that the loser has a friend who is quite resourceful and helped me get rid of Scarface at the redevelopment zone. Wait until the business is on track—I’ll ditch him and kick him out of the restaurant then!”Jerome Hunt laughed pompously and said, “It’s just Scarface! If you’d told me earlier, all I need is a phone call and his boss would come to kneel and apologize to you directly!”Lily giggled delightedly and said, “Oh, Jerome, you’re my hero! It was quite urgent at that time, so I didn’t manage to contact

Douglas said with a gentle laugh, “She has gone to the hair salon. Why?”Charlie smirked. “Hair salon? Was that what she told you?”“Yes!”“And you believe her?”Douglas asked in a peculiar tone, “Charlie, what are you trying to say? Just spill it out, stop beating around the bush.”Charlie gave a hum and started, “Alright. I saw Lily at the BMW showroom with a man named Jerome Hunt. They were cuddling and hugging, and she even called the man ‘dear’. I think she’s cheating on you.”“No way!” Douglas blurted loudly. “Lily is not like that at all! Did you get the wrong person?”Charlie said firmly, “No, I didn’t. It was her.”“No! I don’t believe it!” Douglas growled coldly, “Charlie, we are good buddies but you can’t say bad things about my fiancée just because we’re close!”“Douglas, wake up! Your fiancée is cheating on you with another man and that piece of crap Jerome even promised to buy her a BMW X6. They’ve gone back to his house now and she’s going to break up with you t

After lunch, Jacob, Charlie’s father-in-law, was already dressed up neatly and urging Charlie, “Hey, hurry up and get ready, we’re going to drive in our new car and go to Antique Street. A shop there has imported a Tang Dynasty kiln vase and I want to check it out.”Charlie persuaded, “Dad, you’re starting with the antique thing again? We don’t have much money and it’s a lavish hobby to have right now.”Jacob didn’t have money-earning skills but he dreamed a lot about get-rich-quick schemes. He loved hanging out at Antique Street for the hope of getting a rare piece of antiquity at a low price but in the past few years, the experiences he gained were nothing but scams and deceit.He had stopped for a while but now, not only did he pick up the hobby again but he also started to get itchy hands again.Jacob was annoyed by Charlie’s goodwill remark. He snorted in disdain and said, “Stop your nonsense, just drive me there now.”Charlie was helpless but he could not disobey his father-

Raymond stomped his feet furiously. “He’s your father-in-law, isn’t he?”Charlie nodded. “Yes, he is my father-in-law, but he’s the one who broke it, not me. You go and look for whoever is responsible for the broken vase. ‘Find the real perpetrator, don’t involve their family’—have you heard of that saying before?”Raymond’s blood was boiling, but he pondered upon what Charlie had said and figured that he was right.If the news of him asking compensation from innocent people spread out, then Vintage Deluxe’s reputation would be tarnished.Hence, he urged his men standing at the side, “You, go and get the old man back here!”Charlie curled his lips into a silent smirk as he watched the guys chasing after the old man in a hurry.Actually, he could simply swipe his card and get it over with, but it would be too easy for his shameless father-in-law then, wouldn’t it?It would be better to let the old man suffer and learn his lesson rather than cleaning his a*s for him. Otherwise, he

Thrilled and overjoyed, Charlie quickly stuffed the Apocalyptic Book into his pocket, but the book instantly turned into powder and disappeared into thin air.Miraculously, every word in the book was clearly imprinted in Charlie’s brain.At this moment, Jacob, who ran away like a coward, was brutally apprehended by several big and strong men and was hurled back to the shop.Looking at his puffy and swelling cheeks, Charlie figured that he must have been beaten vigorously before he was carried back here.Charlie found Jacob’s piteous look very funny and amusing.How dare this old coot label him as a scapegoat after getting into trouble! It was outrageous! A little beating was necessary as a punishment for him to learn his lesson.Jacob was in a particularly dreaded and shaky position right now. Due to his desperate escape earlier, he was panting profusely like a dog, trying to catch his breath. His chubby and fragile body made it impossible for him to outrun those young people.

Charlie nodded. “What if I fix it?”Raymond snorted. “I’ll need to check with the appraisers. If they verify that you’ve fixed it and recovered most of the damage, I’ll let both of you go!”“Alright!” Charlie nodded. “It’s a deal!”He quickly turned back to the workstation and quietly started his work. He took the brush and sketched the outline of the vase on the Chinese rice paper.Then, he knocked the egg lightly to crack a small opening, dipped his index finger into the egg to get some egg white, wiped it on a fragment of the vase, and pressed it against the paper model. Then, he repeated the same process for the next fragment, and another, until the paper model was gradually covered with the vase’s pieces…Everyone watched silently while holding their breaths in for fear of interrupting his restoration process.Half an hour passed very quickly.When Charlie stood upright again, what appeared in front of everyone was a Tang Dynasty Yuhuchun vase that seemed to be rejuvenated
