Chapter 293

293 The Genuine Pieces Are Here! Shen Ruojing held two calligraphy pieces in her hands, and she didn’t even place them in a box.

After she finished saying this, she passed the two calligraphy pieces in her hands to Yun Wei.

As a result, Yun Wei could only lower her head dumbfoundedly and stare at the two pieces of paper,feeling somewhat confused.

The atmosphere in the room fell silent.

At this moment, the eldest brother Bai Zhongzhang suddenly glared at his fifth brother, and the latterimmediately reacted. He shouted, “Calligraphy pieces? What tricks are you guys playing now? Earlier,there were a bunch of paper fragments. What is this gift exactly now?”

After saying that, he took a step forward, attempting to snatch the calligraphy pieces from her hands. “Ifyou are capable, just unscroll them and show us all! Don’t assume that you can fake things just bygiving two empty pieces of paper! Do you really think our family members are so easily swindled?”

Yun Wei subconsciously retreated while Bai Xiaojiu was preparing to step forward to block his fifthcousin. But then, Bai Zhongzhang suddenly walked over and held Bai Xiaojiu back. “Little Jiu, I feel thatyou should properly consider this marriage. Our Bai Family mustn’t be swindled…”

Bai Xiaojiu wanted to struggle free from his eldest brother so he could help Yun Wei.

However, Bai Zhongzhang was too strong and Bai Xiaojiu was unable to free himself for a while.

Left with no other solution, he exerted force to push Bai Zhongzhang away before he managed toarrive in front of Yun Wei. However, it was a pity that he was a step too late.

Old Fifth was already in position and was about to seize the calligraphy pieces from Yun Wei.

Shen Ruojing’s eyes gleamed.

Just when she was about to take a step forward and act, Chu Cichen held her back. “Don’t dirty yourhands.”

After saying that, he stepped forward and aimed a kick at Old Fifth’s wrist.

Kacha~

His wrist broke.

The Bai Family was one of the four great families after all and had authority and status in the capital.This was why Chu Cichen’s kick didn’t target his vitals. It could be considered a show of mercy.

Old Fifth immediately screamed, “Ahh!”

Third Madam Bai immediately jumped up from her seat and ran over to support her biological son. Shewas so enraged that she stomped her feet. She then pointed at Chu Cichen. “This place is the BaiManor, yet you actually dare to act violently? Do you know the consequences of injuring my son?!”

Chu Cichen retracted his leg and stood protectively before Shen Ruojing, enduring all of Third MadamBai’s hatred. “He was the one who tried making a move against my cousin first.”

Old Fifth immediately said, “I didn’t do anything and merely wanted to see the calligraphy pieces. I don’twant my family to be swindled again!”

After saying that, he seemed to have understood something. He then shouted, “Why are you guys soadamant about not allowing me to see it? Is it because the pieces in her hands are not Madman’sworks?”

Chu Cichen sneered. “I’m just protecting the pieces as you might tear them again. If you did, we wouldreally not have Madman’s works anymore.”

Old Fifth’s pupils narrowed as guilt surfaced in his heart.

He gulped down a mouthful of saliva. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Nonsense?” Chu Cichen laughed. He then took out his phone and opened up the footage from thesurveillance camera. “The guest room has surveillance cameras. And this is the proof of you enteringthe room and destroying the calligraphy pieces that my cousin wanted to give to Old Master Bai!”

After saying that, he sent the video directly to Old Master Bai’s WeChat.

Shen Ruojing who was at the side lifted her brows.

When she was writing the first calligraphy piece, Chu Cichen was fiddling around with his phone. Couldit be that he was trying to recover the camera footage then?

As expected of 527, his meticulous nature when it came to doing tasks hadn’t changed at all.

Old Fifth was stunned. He had clearly turned all the cameras off before he acted. How could there beany footage?

He turned to look at Old Master Bai only to see Old Master Bai trembling in visible anger after viewingthe video. Old Master Bai abruptly stood up and pointed at Old Fifth, cursing angrily, “Vile creature!”

How could Old Master Bai not be angry?

Old Fifth had torn the Madman’s cursive calligraphy piece that originally belonged to him!

Seeing his grandfather flying into a rage, Old Fifth still tried defending himself. “Grandpa, you cannotmalign me just from his words alone. I…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Old Master Bai already tossed the teacup in his hand onto theground.

Old Master Bai’s anger was palpable, and he glared fiercely at Old Fifth. “The footage is in my phone,would I malign you for nothing?!”

Old Fifth choked. He immediately cried out, “Grandpa, I didn’t do this intentionally. I…it’s because theykept being disrespectful to my mother, hence, I wanted to embarrass her!”

“So you chose to tear Madman’s calligraphy pieces into shreds?!”

Old Master Bai was so infuriated that his hands were shaking. “Men, drag him into the ancestral halland ground him for three, no, five days!”

Just when Third Madam Bai wanted to speak, Old Master Bai angrily added, “His sentence shall beextended by two days the moment anyone dares to plead!”

Hearing this, Third Madam Bai immediately shut up.

Old Fifth was escorted by the servants to the ancestral hall. When he passed by Bai Zhongzhang, OldFifth cast a glance at him. However, Bai Zhongzhang’s gaze was fixed on the calligraphy pieces in YunWei’s hands. All of a sudden, Old Fifth suddenly understood something.

He halted his steps and turned his head to look at Old Master Bai. “Something is wrong, grandpa.Since I’m sure that I tore the calligraphy pieces into shreds, what are these calligraphy pieces in YunWei’s hands?! They are definitely fakes!”

Old Fifth hated Bai Xiaojiu and Yun Wei immensely. He directly shouted, “I personally tore the genuinepieces into shreds, so how can there suddenly be two more pieces now? The Yun Family is basicallytreating us as fools!”

He continued to look at Old Master Bai. “Grandpa, believe me! I’m quite skilled in calligraphy and I’mfrom the calligraphy association. I do have the ability to differentiate a genuine piece from a fake one.I’m sure that the two pieces I tore in the guest room were genuine ones!!”

The majority of the young masters in the Bai family had their areas of specialization.

Old Fifth wasn’t intelligent enough, so he was willing to follow his eldest cousin. Since he was young,he had been fawning over Bai Zhongzhang. But because he knew that his grandfather liked calligraphy,he did put in some effort to train himself in that area.

He still managed to depend on his writing ability to join the China Calligraphy Association.

He wouldn’t make a mistake about this.

Bai Zhongzhang who was at the side also frowned. His tone was intentionally filled with puzzlement.“Miss Yun, what’s going on exactly? My fifth cousin has admitted to tearing your genuine calligraphypieces. So what are the two calligraphy pieces in your hand?”

Third Madam Bai also started mocking at the side, “She acts as the victim while still wanting to givecalligraphy pieces to Old Master Bai. She is clearly treating us as fools. The two pieces in her handsare definitely fake ones. Or maybe, she basically doesn’t have any pieces from Madman. The twopieces torn by my son are fake in the first place! The Yun Family wasn’t able to purchase any ofMadman’s work, so they want to push the responsibility to my son now. What a good plan!”

This sentence caused Old Fifth’s unintelligent brain to spin quickly. He immediately called out with grief,“Grandpa, I understand now. Ever since she entered, she has been against my mother for the sake ofprovoking me. After that, she made sure everyone knew that she would send you a Madman’s work asa gift because she wanted to make me destroy it! I recall it now. I was careless when I judged the

calligraphy piece earlier. Those are definitely fakes! In other words, they basically never had anygenuine pieces!”

Old Fifth sneered. “I was right all along. Even grandpa failed to purchase Madman’s works, so howcould the Yun Family possibly have any? After half a day, it turns out that they are indeed bragging!How malicious! As expected of someone from such a small place like Ford City!”

Fourth Madam Bai at the side was so angry that her body was trembling.

She even believed some of Old Fifth’s words because all of them knew that Old Master Bai had beentrying to purchase one of Madman’s works for five years but hadn’t succeeded. So, how could the YunFamily possess one?

She inhaled deeply and looked at Yun Wei. “Miss Yun, tell the truth. Does the Yun Family have agenuine piece from Madman?!”

Yun Wei choked and her face flushed. She clenched her fists. “We do!”

The genuine piece was what Bai Xiaojiu had delivered!

Old Master Bai, Bai Xiaojiu, and even Yun Wei clearly knew about this matter.

However, she wasn’t able to say all these.

Hearing her tone, Old Fifth was even more overbearing now. “Where is it then? As long as you cantake it out for us to verify, we will believe that you are innocent!”

He was extremely sure that the genuine piece had been torn by him!

Yun Wei glared at Old Fifth.

Bai Xiaojiu was also so angry that he wanted to go crazy.

He looked at his grandpa. But at this moment, even Old Master Bai didn’t know what to say.

Old Fifth was simply too shameless!

Just when the situation was about to sink into awkwardness, Shen Ruojing sighed and took a stepforward. She then tugged the calligraphy pieces out from Yun Wei’s hands and directly said, “Thegenuine pieces are here.”

After saying that, she unscrolled them.
