Chapter 23: The Gift
Ouyang Ziyan's coming-of-age ceremony was carried out in an orderly manner, and soon it was time for Zuihou to cut the cake.
An eighteen-story luxurious and exquisite cake was pushed up by the subordinate in a car and stopped in front of Ouyang Ziyan, with eighteen candles on the cake, the candles had been lit, and the flickering fire was dancing.
Ouyang Ziyan folded her hands, closed her eyes and made a wish, then blew out the candle, and Zuihou and her parents took a long handful and cut a piece on the cake.
"Bang Bang"
Everyone below applauded, and Ouyang Ziyan's coming-of-age ceremony also ended in the applause of everyone's blessings.
At this time, a person walked up to Ouyang Ziyan, took out a gift and handed it to Ouyang Ziyan: "Miss Ouyang, I will give you a gift, I wish you happiness!"
Ouyang Ziyan took the gift and replied politely, "xiexie!"
With the first person to give gifts, naturally there will be a second person who goes up to give gifts, and one after another people come forward to give Ouyang Ziyan their own gifts.
Everyone who gives gifts will say a word of blessing while giving gifts, and Ouyang Ziyan will politely reply "xiexie".
"Boss, why don't you go up to give gifts? There aren't many people left!" Dongfang Hao looked at the more and more people who went up to give gifts to Ouyang Ziyan, and couldn't help but say anxiously to Lin Fan on the side.
"There's no hurry! What about you, why don't you go up and give gifts?" Lin Fan said.
Regarding Dongfang Hao's call to be his eldest brother, Lin Fan did not refuse again, and seemed to have acquiesced to Dongfang Hao's address to him.
"Hehe, didn't I think I'd wait for the boss to give it to me? Since that's the case, then I'll go up first!" Dongfang Hao smiled, and then went up with the gift.
After giving the gift to Ouyang Ziyan, Dongfang Hao seemed to say something to Ouyang Ziyan, and stretched out his hand to point in a certain direction of the hall.
After coming down, Dongfang Hao said to Lin Fan with a smile: "Big brother, I told Ouyang Ziyan that you are here! Look, she has been watching this side!"
Lin Fan followed Dongfang Hao's words and looked over, and Ouyang Ziyan was really looking at this side.
"Boss, you haven't gone up to give gifts yet, people are waiting for your gifts!" Dongfang Hao reached out and touched Lin Fan's arm.
Lin Fan smiled bitterly, he was actually 'betrayed' by this kid Dongfang Hao! No way, since Ouyang Ziyan was looking at him, he couldn't continue to sit down!
Lin Fan got up and walked towards Ouyang Ziyan.
Coming to Ouyang Ziyan's side, Lin Fan took out a beautifully packaged small box and sent it to Ouyang Ziyan's hands: "I wish you a happy birthday!"
Ouyang Ziyan took Lin Fan's gift and smiled sweetly: "Xiexie, your gift!"
Suddenly, Ouyang Ziyan looked at Lin Fan with an expectant face and said, "Can I open it and take a look?"
Hearing Ouyang Ziyan say this, some guests who were still not far from Ouyang Ziyan were in an uproar, this was the first time Ouyang Ziyan asked to open the gift! So many people gave Ouyang Ziyan gifts just now, but I didn't see her asking to open the gifts given by the guests in person!
Is this young man and Ouyang Ziyan in love? Everyone's hearts were full of doubts.
Even Ouyang Ziyan's parents looked at Lin Fan, a young man who looked ordinary, and couldn't help but look Lin Fan up and down for a while, but unfortunately they couldn't see anything extraordinary.
Lin Fan nodded: "Today you are the biggest, you can open it if you want to!"
"Miss Ouyang, what's so nice about a poor sour boy's gift!" a shrill voice suddenly interjected into the conversation between the two.
Everyone looked and saw a handsome young man about twenty years old in a well-fitting suit walking out of the crowd, holding a beautifully packaged gift box in his hand.
"It's you, Ling Shaofeng!" Lin Fan frowned and looked at the young man who was walking this way.
"Hmph, I didn't do anything to you last time, this time I must embarrass you in front of everyone!" Ling Shaofeng whispered as he passed by Lin Fan's side.
Suddenly, Ling Shaofeng's voice raised a few points, so that everyone present could hear it: "Don't think that wearing a suit can hide the fact that you are a poor and sour boy, what gift can you give as a kid raised by a pariah who picks up garbage? Only the gift in my hand is worthy of Miss Ouyang!"
As he spoke, Ling Shaofeng opened the gift box he was holding in his hand, revealing the gifts inside.
I saw a beautifully shaped jade jade lying quietly in the gift box, and the crystal clear jade body reflected a faint green light under the reflection of the hall lights, gorgeous and beautiful!
What a rarity!
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the exquisite jade jade in Ling Shaofeng's hand.
"Ling Shaofeng, you are looking for death! You actually insulted the person who raised me three times and twice!" Lin Fan's eyes flashed with a cold glint.
Ling Shaofeng's body trembled, as if he remembered what happened last time, but he quickly reacted, this was the place of the Ouyang family, and Lin Fan didn't dare to do anything to him!
Ling Shaofeng, who had regained his composure, looked at Lin Fan, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smug smile, and whispered: "This is the place of the Ouyang family, do you dare to kill people here?"
Since the two of them were talking in a very small voice, no one else could hear what they were saying.
After speaking, Ling Shaofeng no longer paid attention to Lin Fan, turned his head to Ouyang Ziyan and smiled: "Miss Ouyang, some time ago, there was an imperial green jadeite in the jade trading market, and that imperial green jadeite was bought by Dong Wei, the chairman of Tianwei Jewelry Group, at a price of 300 million. Now, that piece of Imperial Green Jade has been made into three rare pieces, and this is one of them! Only such a rare piece can be worthy of Miss Ouyang!"
After Ling Shaofeng finished speaking, he looked at Lin Fan proudly, with this rare piece of his own in front of him, no matter what kind of gift Lin Fan took out, it was just a shame!
Lin Fan's eyes revealed a strange light, using the things he sold as gifts to others, and it was a third of them! And now, the person who gave the gift was still looking at him triumphantly!
This shijie is so amazing and so funny!
couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of Lin Fan's mouth.
However, when this smile fell into Ling Shaofeng's eyes, it became Lin Fan's self-deprecating smile, and he was even more proud in his heart!
"Xiexie!" Ouyang Ziyan took Ling Shaofeng's gift and said lightly.
Ling Shaofeng was stunned by Ouyang Ziyan's cold performance, the jade masterpiece he gave away did not have the charm that that woman could resist, but Ouyang Ziyan just replied lightly, "xiexie", what is the difference between this and others?
Ling Shaofeng couldn't help asking, "Miss Ouyang, don't you like the gift I gave?"
A trace of disgust flashed in the depths of Ouyang Ziyan's eyes, but her face was still flat: "I like it, didn't I tell you xiexie?"
"Ling Shaofeng.
"Now that I haven't bothered you, can I open the gift you gave?" Ouyang Ziyan smiled at Lin Fan.
"Whatever!" Lin Fan nodded.
Ling Shanfeng, who was still on the side, gritted his teeth and looked at Lin Fan, he was also giving a gift, but how could there be such a big difference in this treatment!
Ouyang Ziyan opened the gift box given by Lin Fan, and a small jade plate three centimeters wide and five centimeters long appeared in Ouyang Ziyan's eyes.
The surface of this small jade plaque is smooth and there is no pattern, but if you look closely, the inside of the jade plaque seems to be flickering with a faint light, and these rays are faintly connected into a circular pattern, and there are some mysterious patterns in the pattern.
This was the gift that Lin Fan decided to give to Ouyang Ziyan, a jade plaque with a simplified version of the Spirit Gathering Array carved inside!
Ever since he learned that he was going to participate in Ouyang Ziyan's coming-of-age ceremony, Lin Fan was worried about what gift to give Ouyang Ziyan, and then he thought that Ouyang Ziyan was a cultivator, and giving her something that could help her cultivate was the most haode gift!
As a result, a jade plaque with a simple version of the Spirit Gathering Array carved inside was the most haode choice. Because it's a simplified version of the Spirit Gathering Array, the effect it can achieve is less than one percent of the full version!
However, because it is also a simple version of the Spirit Gathering Array, the impact on the jade is not as strong as that of the complete gang, and it can be used for a long time!
Lin Fan estimated that the jade plate he gave to Ouyang Ziyan would probably last for twenty years!
"What is this?"
Ouyang Ziyan picked up the jade card, and immediately felt a wave of energy from the jade card into his body, quickly enhancing his cultivation, and looked at Lin Fan with a shocked face.
"I hope you like it. Lin Fan smiled and nodded.
"Haha, you are embarrassed to give away such an ordinary thing!Lin Fan, if you don't have the money to buy gifts, I have a lot of money, I can lend it to you!" Ling Shaofeng looked at the small jade plate that Ouyang Ziyan held in his hand, and hahadaxiao said.
"It's very ordinary, it's just a small gift I made myself. Facing Ling Shaofeng's ridicule, Lin Fan just smiled indifferently.
"Who said that the gift given by Xiaoyou is ordinary? I said that Xiaoyou's gift is a rare treasure, much more precious than yours! The value of your thing is not even one percent of Xiaoyou's!" An old but majestic voice sounded in the hall.
"Dad, why are you here? Aren't you in the backyard with Guo Lao and them?" Ouyang Zhenhua immediately greeted the owner of the voice.
An old man who looked to be in his seventies walked through the passage of the crowd with vigorous steps, the old man's hair was all white, but his face was very ruddy, not at all like an old man who was about to enter the earth!
This old man is Ouyang Zhenhua's father, Ouyang Ziyan's grandfather, and Ouyang Old Man!
Old man Ouyang walked to Ouyang Ziyan's side, looked at Ouyang Ziyan lovingly, and said, "Today is my good granddaughter's coming-of-age ceremony, how can I, a grandfather, not come?"
"Grandpa Xiexie!" Ouyang Ziyan smiled sweetly and hugged Old Man Ouyang's hand.
"Zi Yan, show the jade plate in your hand to grandpa. Old man Ouyang said.
Taking the jade plate handed over by Ouyang Ziyan, Old Man Ouyang felt it carefully, and a burst of essence suddenly burst out in his eyes, and the burst of essence flashed and disappeared, and no one noticed.
However, Lin Fan felt that a powerful momentum suddenly burst out from Old Man Ouyang's body, and that momentum actually made him feel suffocated!
Lin Fan was shocked in his heart: What a powerful old man Ouyang, his strength has reached at least the fourth level of innate level!
