Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 155 A Billion-Dollar Gift

After more than a month of sailing.

The cruise ship finally arrived at the Lighthouse Country.

Jiang Hua's spiritual cultivation also broke through to the late stage of concentration.

That is the third level realm.

His martial arts skills were almost reaching the fourth level of perfection.

The fourth level of bone refining is to turn bones into jade.

By that time, the bones all over his body were not only extremely hard, but also had very strong toughness and recovery ability.

Even if the bones are broken,

They can all grow back quickly.

Only after breaking through to the fourth level can a warrior be said to have truly embarked on the path of martial arts.

This road is full of thorns.

Only a select few can make it to the top.

This pier is bustling with people.

There are blond and blue-eyed foreigners everywhere.

Shirley Yang's mother, in Jinshan City of the Lighthouse Country.

Jinshan City is also a big city in the Lighthouse Country.

There are many tall buildings here.

Cars are driving on the road.

Shirley Yang originally thought Jiang Hua would be a little shocked.

After all, Jinshan City is much more prosperous than the capital.

After all, Dragon Country has just started to develop.

The Beacon Country has been developing for decades.

However, there was no shock on Jiang Hua's face.

He looked at Shirley Yang's face.

Can't help but feel a little funny.

What was so good about Jinshan City in the 1970s and 1980s?

He has seen more prosperous cities.

The Deep City Demon City in the previous life is not comparable to the current Jinshan City.

"Let's go. I've already called my mother and she's waiting for us at home!" Shirley Yang naturally pulled Jiang Hua's wrist.

Then I hailed a taxi on the side of the road.

Shirley Yang spoke two sentences in English.

The taxi drove towards a place.

"Shirley, am I okay like this?"

Jiang Hua adjusted his suit nervously.

Shirley Yang said with some amusement: "Oh, don't worry, my mother is very easy to talk to."

Jiang Hua breathed a sigh of relief.

He held a gift box in his hand.

This gift box contains the gift he prepared for Shirley Yang's mother.

There's only one thing in here.

Earth Spirit Fruit!
Compared to other things, this Earth Spirit Fruit is better than any beauty cosmetics.

After all, this is something that can truly prolong your life.

In a luxurious villa area.

Inside one of the villas.

A blond, blue-eyed young man in a suit and tie was talking to a middle-aged woman with a smile.

"Auntie, this is my gift to you!"

The young man opened a gift box.

There was actually a statue of a god inside.

This statue looks like a snake with an eye on it.

There are a lot of words on it.

"Ghost Cave Text!"

The middle-aged woman's eyes narrowed.

"Haha, you should like this gift, right?" The blond young man laughed.

The middle-aged woman took a deep breath and said, "Byron, just say whatever you want to say."

"Haha, I want to marry your daughter, Shirley!"

The middle-aged woman looked at him deeply.

"Byron, I can't promise you this. I won't interfere with Qian's daughter's marriage. I just hope she can be happy."

"But you also know about Shirley Yang's illness. If you marry her to me, I will spend my whole life to cure your family's genetic virus."

The middle-aged woman said coldly: "Byron, no need, if there is nothing else, you can leave."

The blond young man Byron looked a little unhappy.

At this moment, there was suddenly a noise outside.

"Mom, I'm back."

Shirley Yang took Jiang Hua and walked into the living room of the villa.

She immediately saw the blond young man standing beside her.

Shirley Yang's face immediately turned cold.

"Byron, what are you doing here?"

Byron showed joy, "Shirley, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Shirley Yang said bluntly: "Byron, I just want to know, what are you doing in my house?"

Byron didn't care at all. He looked at Shirley Yang and said with a hint of obsession: "Shirley, I have asked Aunt Yang for marriage."

"what?"

Shirley Yang's face changed, and she said with some disgust: "Who will marry you?"

"Also, this is my fiancé, you can give up now."

Shirley Yang pointed at Jiang Hua next to her and said.

Byron turned his gaze towards Jiang Hua.

The joy on his face gradually disappeared.

There was a terrifying coldness in his eyes.

"Shirley, believe me, I am the man who loves you the most. He is just a poor boy who covets your family. How can he be worthy of you?" Byron took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and didn't even look at Jiang Hua.

It seemed that Jiang Hua was not worthy of talking to him at all.

"Shut up!"

Shirley Yang said angrily.

"Byron, I'm telling you, who I want to be with has nothing to do with you. Now please leave my house immediately, or I will call the police immediately."

Byron said without giving up: "Shirley, don't be fooled by this man. Look at what qualifications does he have to want you?"

"This is the ghost cave statue I bought for 30 million. It contains great archaeological value. I'm sure your father would be very happy if he knew about it."

Byron said, pointing to the ghost cave statue nearby.

He even deliberately emphasized the words "30 million".

It was obvious that the intention was to make Jiang Hua give up.

One of my gifts is worth 30 million.

what are you?
Jiang Hua observed this scene from the side.

He just found it funny.

"You are Jiang Hua, right?" Yang Li came over and said with a smile.

Jiang Hua suddenly became nervous. "Hello, auntie, I'm Shirley Yang's boyfriend."

"Well, I heard Shirley talk about you."

Jiang Hua quickly took out the gift in his hand.

"Auntie, I came here in a hurry and I don't have anything to prepare. I hope you can accept it."

"No need for gifts." Yang Li said with a smile: "Since you are Shirley Yang's boyfriend, you are our son-in-law."

"We are all family, so there is no need to be so polite."

"what……"

Jiang Hua was stunned.

I didn't expect Shirley Yang's mother to be so easy to talk to.

Soon, he understood.

This is because his aunt doesn't want him to embarrass himself.

After all, Byron had just been talking about a gift worth 30 million.

If you were Shirley Yang's fiancé and you only gave her some ordinary gifts, you would be the one who would be embarrassed.

Jiang Hua immediately smiled and said, "Auntie, this is a little gift from me, please accept it."

Yang Li looked at him deeply.

"Well, that's fine, Shirley, go put the present away."

But this time.

Byron was a little unhappy.

"Auntie, since the gifts are already here, why not open them right here and take a look. I also want to see what gift Shirley's boyfriend gave you."

"What gift Jiang Hua gave, what does it have to do with you?"

Shirley Yang said bluntly.

Byron's eyes were a little gloomy, but it soon disappeared, and then he forced a smile and said, "I just want to see what gift your boyfriend will give. If you feel embarrassed, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Jiang Hua raised his eyebrows. Is this a provocation?
Looking at the Ghost Cave statue on the table, he just felt funny.

What kind of gift is this worth 30 million?

Could it be compared with the magical fruit that can prolong life?
Originally, Jiang Hua didn't intend to pay any attention to him.

After all, in his opinion, this admirer of Shirley Yang was just a passer-by in his life.

But this person kept being aggressive.

If Jiang Hua hadn't said a few words, I would have really thought he was afraid of him.

"Haha, Auntie, since someone wants to see the gift I gave, let's open it here. Do you think it's okay?"

Yang Li was wearing a long skirt and sitting upright on the sofa. When she heard Jiang Hua's words, she looked at him with some surprise.

The gift from Byron was worth thirty million.

Since he dared to open it and take a look, it means that the value of this gift is more than 30 million?
The value of the gift.

Yang Li actually didn't care.

After all, she is in charge of a company worth tens of billions of dollars. What hasn't she seen?
But Jiang Hua is a young man after all.

It is inevitable that you will be young and vigorous.

If he wasn't sure, he probably wouldn't dare to say this. Thinking of this, Yang Li smiled and nodded in agreement. Byron showed a hint of pride on his face.

He wanted to see what kind of gift this poor boy could come up with.
Byron had already made up his mind that if the gift was just some rubbish, he would ridicule him and make him look bad in front of Yang Li.

Then he automatically left Shirley Yang.

Shirley Yang, who was standing by, didn't care at all.

But she knew what was in the gift box.

Jiang Hua took a small knife from the table, then opened the gift box, and what came into view was an exquisite jade box.

The whole body is made of a piece of jade with a warm color.

The jade box can preserve the medicinal effects of the spiritual fruit to the greatest extent possible without losing them.

Byron's face changed slightly.

This jade box alone is worth at least one hundred thousand US dollars.

That’s equivalent to one million.

The jade box is so precious.

What exactly is in here?
There was also a hint of curiosity on Yang Li's face, and she looked at Jiang Hua deeply.

She came today with the intention of testing the man, and was prepared to observe the man Shirley Yang found to see what kind of person he was.

Shirley Yang didn't tell her on the phone what kind of son-in-law she was like.

He just said that he was from the capital of Longguo.

There is no other information.

Yang Li was actually a little annoyed.

After all, Shirley Yang is the only one left in their family, and many families are eyeing them.

As long as they marry Shirley Yang, all these tens of billions of assets will be theirs.

Including Byron who came today, Yang Li knew very well in her heart that he did not really want to marry Shirley Yang.

Instead, he was eyeing the assets of the Yang family.

Otherwise, how could Byron marry a short-lived woman since he already knew the Yang family's curse?

Moreover, this curse will also affect future generations.

Jiang Hua gently opened the jade box.

There was a golden fruit in the jade box.

It looks like an orange.

Even the size is similar.

After seeing this fruit, Yang Li's face suddenly changed!
Still with a hint of disbelief?
Is this a spiritual fruit? !
Byron, who was standing by, burst into laughter when he saw that the gift was just a fruit.

"Haha, who would send only one fruit as a gift? At least buy a bag." Byron said sarcastically.

He really found it funny.

A fruit.

It is also packaged so carefully.

is it necessary?

That jade box must also be made of plastic, right?

After all, how much is a fruit worth?
Even the most expensive fruit in the world.

It’s not like he hasn’t eaten it before.

However, after hearing Byron's words.

Shirley Yang couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Earthworm!"

"If you don't understand, just stop talking, okay?"

"Do you know what this is?"

"If you don't know, go home and ask your family, they should know what it is."

Yang Li didn't laugh.

Instead, he looked at the spiritual fruit on the table with a serious expression.

She knew how precious this thing was.

If it were put up at an auction.

At least they all start from one billion.

And this is still considered a small amount.

In the most prosperous land on this planet, countless wealthy people would go crazy for a magical fruit that could prolong life.

She stood up and smiled and said, "Byron, I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that I have some things to deal with, so I'm sorry that I can't entertain you anymore."

"By the way, give my regards to your father."

Byron's head was full of question marks and his face was filled with astonishment.

Are you chasing him away?!
Just for a fruit?
