Chapter 137: To Compensate or Not to Compensate

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: To Compensate or Not to Compensate

Cai Hong, who was also a jewelry designer, recognized Master Vankaf at a glance and stood there speechless for a moment.

She was somewhat famous among jewelry designers, but compared to a top-level master like Vankaf, she was far from his league.

Vankaf had deep-set features and a tall nose, a Caucasian man in his forties or fifties.

He immediately noticed the damaged bracelet on the tray.

Li Hongsheng had been observing until a commanding man suddenly appeared, claiming the buyer had receipts, and even brought Master Vankaf in person.

Although Li Hongsheng did not recognize Vankaf, judging by Cai Hong’s reaction, he knew it could not be mistaken—they were peers after all. If it were not her, she would have spoken up by now.

"Who damaged this!" Vankaf spoke in a foreign accent, his deep eyes filled with anger.

Every piece he designed was like his own child, so naturally, seeing his work damaged like this made him extremely angry!

The very angry kind!

"Master Vankaf, are you saying this bracelet is truly one you designed?" Cai Hong took a deep breath.

Their company had once wanted to hire Master Vankaf as the chief designer for Sai’er Jewelry, even offering a high price, but had never succeeded.

Not just their company, other companies had also made generous offers, but he was unmoved.

He was an individual, not affiliated with any company; if there was one, it was a brand he founded himself, with only one studio. Yet, every year, the jewelry he designed sold at high prices.

Like this bracelet, ten million.

Previously, she had not been certain it was his design, as she couldn’t find his trademark on the bracelet.

"Do you think I can’t recognize my own work?"

Cai Hong was speechlessly rebuked; her previously arrogant demeanor deflated significantly.

Any famous master was known to have a bad temper, and Vankaf was no exception; he was extremely blunt and stubborn.

She didn’t know how this man in a suit had managed to get him from Beijing here, but she was incredibly perceptive; this man was definitely not someone she could afford to offend.

"Yun Yueyue, how is it? Did I handle this well?" Lou Ting flirtatiously winked at Yun Yue.

Lin Xiang’s heart skipped, hastily looking at Yun Yue and feeling relieved to see her unaffected.

If Yueyue was not interested in someone as extraordinarily beautiful as Xiao Chen, she probably wouldn’t be interested in someone like Lou Ting either.

Especially since Yueyue herself was already very pretty, and who knows who could match up to their Yueyue in the future.

"..."

Yun Yue spoke, her voice lazy, "Later, I’ll prescribe you some medicine."

"Sure, prescribe a lot," Lou Ting laughed heartily.

"???"

The office weirdly stared at the two of them, especially at Lou Ting.

This guy must be sick, laughing about getting medicine.

"This is infuriating; it was clearly done on purpose!" Vankaf broke the office calm in anger.

"Who damaged it?"

He raised his eyes, scanning the people in the office.

"It was her! She deliberately tore it!" Rong Li confidently pointed at Liang Qian.

Vankaf had personally confirmed it was the bracelet he designed, ten million was certain now!

Liang Qian was done for!

Either go bankrupt!

Or rot in jail!

Ever since Lou Ting arrived, Liang Qian was utterly panicked, especially when Cai Hong mentioned he was Master Vankaf, her face turned pale and she broke out into a cold sweat.

Vankaf frowned, "Are you dissatisfied with the jewelry I designed?"

At this moment, being directly questioned by Vankaf himself, her heart was even more uneasy, her lips trembled, her nails dug fiercely into her palms, and her back chilled.

"No, no, I... I didn’t know it was your design, I definitely wouldn’t have deliberately broken it if I had known," Liang Qian cried in desperation.

She was truly scared; if that bracelet was really ten million, her father would surely kill her.

Their family had conducted some business over the past few years, but coming up with ten million was still extremely difficult.

She subconsciously looked at Li Feng, drilling into her clothes, "Mom."

"Don’t worry, it might just be a scam they’re pulling together," Li Feng comforted her.

Cai Hong reminded her, "Mrs. Liang, he truly is the jewelry master, Vankaf, I didn’t deceive you about that."

They had come all the way from Beijing, was it really just to swindle them out of ten million?

Even if Director Wei were here today, it was still their fault, either pay up or face a lawsuit.

She realized the one who had a say here was the girl beside Lin Xiang, even the man from Beijing was very polite to her.

It was clear that Mrs. Liang’s daughter had offended someone, and today’s issue might just be that girl settling the score.

Li Feng took a deep breath, "Whatever the cost, we’ll compensate."

"This lady, this bracelet costs ten million, would you like to pay by card or transfer?" Lou Ting asked with a smile, collecting money was his specialty.

Yun Yueyue clearly had no intention of letting things slide, so he might as well play the bad guy.

Li Feng frowned, her expression harsh, "What bracelet costs ten million! It’s clear you’re fabricating this, believe it or not I’ll call the police on you!"

Lou Ting smiled, showing her the bill, "Here is the bill, you can check it. I deal with business worth hundreds of millions normally, I wouldn’t come all the way from Beijing just to extort ten million from you."

Li Feng paled, clutching her purse tightly, someone from Beijing.

The Liang family was just a small-scale enterprise in Lan City; the mere mention of Beijing was something they hardly dared dream of, much less expecting to encounter here.

It must be fake.

Lin Xiang didn’t know anyone from Beijing, how could Yun Yue know someone from Beijing, she was just a stepdaughter from a poor village, how could she know such significant figures from Beijing?

She had heard some information about Yun Yue from Liang Qian’s mouth; good academics, beautiful, but plagued with scandals.

She carefully checked the bill again, it really was ten million!

Both mother and daughter’s legs went weak, their faces pale and turning ashen.

Lou Ting still kept a cheerful demeanor, "If you don’t trust this, you can call the police, sue us, but either way, you’ll have to compensate the ten million."

Li Hongsheng and Xiao Ye were left speechless by Liu Xiaoyan.

They couldn’t get a word in from start to finish; they didn’t recognize Vankaf, and could hardly even conceive of ten million, yet this man was claiming it effortlessly, filling them with dread.

Was that small bracelet really worth ten million!

Just a few days ago, Liu Xiaoyan had heard someone mention that a necklace of Shen Xuan was worth five million, she thought that was already astronomical, only to find there was even more expensive jewelry than that.

She had been a teacher all her life, not to mention five million, even one million was beyond her sight.

Isn’t it said that poverty limits one’s imagination? The teaching profession is like that, wanting to earn more but sticking to a fixed salary just barely gets you by, but to live better, you’d need to work as private tutors for extra earnings.

"So, are you compensating or not?" Lou Ting’s tall stature was imposing, despite his smile, there was a palpable pressure.
