Chapter 516: Chapter 515, why are you so stingy?

"I’ll go take a call first!" Xu Wendong said to Xiao Ruyan, then turned and entered the bathroom in Ding Yao’s room to answer the call from Chen Qiaomu.

"Do you have time tomorrow afternoon? Come over for a meal!" Chen Qiaomu’s gentle, calm voice came through to Xu Wendong.

Xu Wendong’s lips curled into a bitter smile. If he hadn’t already promised Xiao Ruyan that he’d go home with her tomorrow, he would definitely have accepted Chen Qiaomu’s invitation.

But now.

He could only politely decline, "I have some things to do tomorrow afternoon, how about I come by in the evening?"

"Hmm, see you tomorrow!" Chen Qiaomu didn’t show any emotion or displeasure over Xu Wendong’s refusal. She remained very composed, somewhat similar to Xiao Ruyan. They never expressed their emotions, appearing as if they had no desires or demands, which made interaction quite comfortable.

Returning to the bedroom.

Xiao Ruyan had already left, and Xu Wendong entered the living room, where a dozen or so lavish dishes were placed on the dining table and coffee table.

There was no other way because more than twenty guests were attending Ding Zhicheng’s birthday celebration today, and one table simply couldn’t accommodate that many people, so they had to sit separately by gender.

Just as everyone was taking their seats, Ding Qian began to stir things up again. She said, "Wendong, it’s Uncle’s sixtieth birthday today, and I’ve prepared a case of Wuliangye for him. As Yao Yao’s boyfriend, the gift you prepared should be quite expensive, right?"

In fact, everyone already acknowledged Xu Wendong. The title of honorary dean of the medical college was quite a distinction, and he no longer needed to prove his financial capability with gifts.

But upon hearing Ding Qian’s words, many people’s curiosity was piqued. With his exceptional status, the things he brought should be quite valuable, right?

Xu Wendong smiled, "Not much, just some cigarettes and alcohol."

"Uncle, it’s a big day today. You don’t mind drinking the wine your future son-in-law brought, do you?" Ding Qian said with a smile, "I’m sure you won’t mind!" She then headed straight to the corner where Xu Wendong’s gifts were placed.

Everyone helplessly shook their heads. Ding Qian wasn’t inherently bad, but she sometimes acted without thinking.

"Wei Jiang, my wife has this kind of personality, please don’t take it to heart!" Wei Jiang, looking embarrassed, apologized to Xu Wendong. Even though Xu Wendong was just an honorary dean, just a word from him could push Wei Jiang further ahead.

At this point, Ding Qian’s voice rang out again, "Wendong, I’m not criticizing you, but you’re visiting our Ding Family for the first time. How could you just bring two bottles of wine?"

"You should at least bring a whole case, right? These two bottles of wine don’t even look expensive. Why are you so stingy?"

"And, there are two packs of cigarettes, but apart from the words ’special supply,’ there’s no brand. Are these no-name products?"

"And look at the tea packaging, all dark and dull. Did you pick it up from a garbage heap?"

"You’re an honorary dean of the Chinese Medicine Hospital, but why are you so stingy when picking a gift?"

Xu Wendong was full of embarrassment.

These gifts weren’t prepared by him!

Ding Yao noticed Xu Wendong’s awkwardness and indignantly said, "Ding Qian, don’t you know I’ve tolerated you for a long time? What gift Wendong brings has nothing to do with you! What right do you have to criticize here?"

Ding Qian feigned a pitiful look and said, "Well, I was thinking, since your boyfriend is the honorary dean of the Chinese Medicine Hospital, he must show generosity on his first visit. I wanted to broaden my horizons, but who would have thought he’d be so stingy?"

"I..." Ding Yao was left speechless.

At this moment.

Xiao Ruyan’s voice rang out, "These two bottles of wine aren’t ordinary. If I’m not mistaken, they should be twenty-year-old special supply Maotai, which you can’t find on the market."

Ding Yao’s mother, Wang Shujuan, was astonished and hurriedly said, "Are these two bottles really special supply Maotai?"

The eyes of the other guests were filled with shock.

Maotai was the pinnacle of Chinese liquor, with even Flying Maotai costing over three thousand yuan per bottle. Let alone twenty-year-old special supply Maotai.

If it’s true, this would be a priceless possession.

Xiao Ruyan walked over, opened the wine box, examined the plain-looking bottle closely, and then gave her conclusion, "Sorry, I was mistaken earlier."

Ding Qian said smugly, "I told you so, this guy is a penny-pincher, there’s no way he’d splurge on twenty-year-old special supply Mao..."

Before she could finish, Xiao Ruyan’s voice interrupted her, "This is thirty-year-old special supply Maotai!"

"I..." Ding Qian’s voice abruptly stopped, as if an invisible hand clenched her throat, leaving her gasping for air.

What’s going on?

Why do you have to take such a dramatic pause when speaking?

Ding Qian’s mentality collapsed.

She thought that Xu Wendong bringing out twenty-year-old special supply Maotai was already incredible, but she never imagined it was actually thirty-year-old special supply Maotai.

"Brother-in-law, do you dare to drink these two bottles of Maotai?" Xiao Ruyan asked Ding Zhicheng with a smile.

Ding Zhicheng subconsciously swallowed and couldn’t help but say, "Are they still just liquor?"

Xiao Ruyan shrugged, "You can consider them liquid gold, but the price is definitely higher than gold!"

"Yes, even if sold per gram, it surpasses gold!"

Everyone gasped sharply.

Although they knew Maotai was expensive.

They never imagined it could surpass gold in price per gram.

Xiao Ruyan then fixed her gaze on the two packs of special supply cigarettes, "These two packs, though unbranded, are not as valuable as the two bottles of Maotai, but there’s a red star on them, and they are also special supply products."

"I can say with great responsibility that in our country, those qualified to smoke this type of cigarette do not exceed three digits!"

"The rarity of these is even higher than the two bottles of Maotai!"

Everyone felt a tingling sensation on their scalps. They never thought the gifts Xu Wendong brought would be so staggering. They initially assumed they were just ordinary cigarettes and alcohol.

Who could have thought one gift would be more explosive than the last?

"Then this dark tea brick must not be anything good, right?" Ding Qian said unhappily, hoping to embarrass Xu Wendong, but instead, he ended up showing off.

Xiao Ruyan, well-versed in these matters, picked up the tea brick, smelled it carefully, then shook her head with a smile, "If the tea brick from the mother trees of the Dahongpao in the Wuyi Mountains isn’t considered good, I don’t know what is!"

"This thing has no price, but in our country, those qualified to drink this tea should not exceed ten!"

Ding Qian subconsciously swallowed and felt goosebumps rise all over her skin. Coming to her senses, she screamed, "Impossible, absolutely impossible! He’s just the honorary dean of the Chinese Medicine Hospital. How could he bring such expensive gifts?"
