Chapter 28 – If You're Slow, I Might Be Snatched Away by Someone Else

Chapter 28 If You’re Slow, I Might Be Snatched Away by Someone Else

Tang Feng was flattered by Marvin’s praise and immediately felt a bit smug.

Be it the customers on Antique Street, Qin Yanan or even Zhang Jicheng, they had all respected Old Ma very much.

It was clear that he held a high status within the antique-collector circle.

Anyone would share Tang Feng’s feelings if they were praised by such an individual.

“Mr. Tang, I’ve recently obtained a treasure and have recruited a few famous appraisers to appraise it, butthey aren’t sure about their results. I’ll bring it over in a few days, could you help me take a look at it when the time comes?”

Although Ma Wenbo sounded sounded arrogant when talking to others, the situation was completely opposite when he spoke with Tang Feng. He was extremely humble and respectful towards him.

“Old Ma really thinks too highly of me. You already have many appraisers under your wing. If they aren’t able to come up with a conclusion, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to either.” Tang Feng modestly responded.

“Mr. Tang, there’s no need to be humble. I’m considered to be quite knowledgeable in this field as well, and from what I can tell, your ability as an appraiser is definitely ranked within the top 50 within Zhonghai.” Ma Wenbo could not hide his admiration.

Tang Feng had to suppress the urge to roll his eyes when he heard this.

Are you looking down on me?

I’m only ranked within the top 50 despite the system’s help?

Do the first 49 appraisers have a system too?

In truth, Tang Feng had misconstrued Ma Wenbo’s words.

As a prefecture-level city with a population ranging n the millions, the number of antique appraisers was at least in the tens of thousands.

Those who could be ranked in the top 50 were all extraordinary individuals. Their presence alone would cause heads to turn.

The fact that Ma Wenbo had included Tang Feng within their ranks showed how highly he had thought of him.

If someone were to spread Ma Wenbo’s words, he would be lynched by the antique-collecting community.

After all, he dared to put a 20-something-year-old kid on a pedestal alongside the top ranking appraisers? He was simply too arrogant! “Alright, seeing as you’ve put this much trust in me, I’ll do my best to fulfill your request. Though I won’t always be in the shop. As such, feel free to give me a call if you’re coming over.” Although Tang Feng was very dissatisfied with his ranking, he did not let it show on the surface.

“Then it’s settled.”

Excited at the progress he had made, Ma Wenbo happily pulled Tang Feng to the side for a quick chat. After exchanging phone calls, he hastily left the shop.

Qin Yanan waited for him to leave and immediately smiled at Tang Feng. “Well done, Little Tang. it seems that I was still underestimating you. There aren’t many people who can receive such praise from Old

Ma.”

Tang Feng laid back in his chair and shrugged nonchalantly. “So what if I get a few words of praise from him? It’s not like he’s going to offer his daughter’s hand in marriage to me, right?”

Qin Yanan looked at him with great interest. “If he really offers his daughter to you, would you accept?”

Tang Feng nodded without hesitation. “Is there even a need to ask? To have such a rich father-in-law, I’m more than happy to accept such an offer.”

Qin Yanan instantly rolled her eyes. “Can’t you act more like a man? Why are you always thinking of taking the easy way out?”

Tang Feng winked at her. “Who would willingly take the hard way if the easy way is easily available to them? Why don’t you consider it, Sister Yanan?”

Qin Yanan did not understand and asked in puzzlement. “Consider what?”

“Supporting me. Before Old Ma invites me to marry into his family, you have to act quickly. If you’re too slow, I’ll be snatched away by someone else.” A wicked smile was spreading across Tang Feng’s face as he spoke those words.

“Screw you. Who would want you?” Qin Yanan stretched out two slender fingers and tapped on his forehead.

“Ahem…” Zhang Jicheng saw the two flirting and coughed dryly. “Um… I’ll head back to

work.”

Qin Yanan then remembered that Old Zhang was still standing by the side and hurriedly put on a serious face. “Master Zhang, if you’re in no hurry, would you mind taking Tang Feng under your wing as you explain the shop’s operations to him?” Zhang Jicheng hurriedly nodded. “I’m not in a hurry. I’ll take him along with me for now. Once he can completely take over the shop’s operations, I’ll leave.”

“Wait a minute. Have you asked my opinion yet? I didn’t say that I’m going to take this job, right?” Tang Feng immediately put on airs.

Qin Yanan immediately became anxious. “Didn’t you already agree yesterday?”

Tang Feng shrugged. “I didn’t know learn the true extent of my abilities until today. Now that I do, I no longer feel like doing it.”

Qin Yanan was so angry that she began gritting her teeth. “I’ll raise your salary to 100 thousand yuan a month. How about it?”

Tang Feng held the cup of tea in his hand and drank it slowly. “Do you think I look like someone who’s short of cash?”

Qin Yanan was speechless.

Indeed, as someone who could easily pick out antiques worth more than 500 thousand yuan, a mere 100 thousand yuan did not seem too enticing in comparison.

“Then what do you want, if not the money?”

“What I want… Do you even need to ask?” Tang Feng immediately threw her a “you know what” kind of look.

Seemingly enlightened, Qin Yanan exclaimed, “So it’s me you want, huh? No problem. As long as you do your job well, you can have both me and the shop.”

She even included a flirtatious glance at Tang Feng as she spoke.

Tang Feng could not take it anymore.

He could see that this woman never used oars when rowing. She had relied purely on waves.

He was a little seasick.

“Well… I still have something to do today, so I’ll take my leave for now.” He hurriedly put down the teacup and walked out in a hurry.

“Damn you, don’t go. I’ll warm your bed for

you…”

He had already run out of the shop, but he could still hear Qin Yanan’s sweet voice trailing behind him.

This made him feel like he was already in too deep.

With how strongly this woman was coming for him, he was genuinely worried that he’ll lose his virginity to her one day.

No, absolutely not.

I must hold strong. I mustn’t let her take advantage of me.

Just as he was worrying about how to keep his innocence, he suddenly received a call from Song Lele.

Upon recalling his good “feminine” friend, he immediately threw Sister Qin to the back of his mind and hurriedly picked up the phone.

“Hello, Young Master Feng, what are you doing now?” As soon as the call was picked up, he heard Song Lele deliberately lowering her voice to ask.

“I’m thinking of you,” Tang Feng could not help but tease her.

“Screw you, no homo,” Song Lele immediately spat back.

Tang Feng did not need to see her to know that her face was red as a tomato at that moment.
