Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Yu Jianhao completed the formalities as if he was sleepwalking and held the oil painting “Summer Dream” in his hands.

Only then did he dare to believe that all of this was real.

He was really now the owner of this painting that was worth 500 million yuan.

However, he still couldn’t understand why the other party would give this painting to him for free, nor did he know what to do with this painting.

There was no use in keeping it. He would not be able to find a suitable buyer even if he sold it.

Moreover, he was also worried that if he sold it directly, it would make that mysterious young man unhappy.

Since the other party had the ability to spend billions of dollars, he definitely had a powerful background. If he offended him, the other party might be unhappy and directly destroy the Yu Corporation.

Yu Jianhao really did not dare to take the risk.

Therefore, he was really in a difficult situation. Holding the painting was like holding a hot potato. He did not know what to do with it.

At this moment, Mr. A sent a message.

“Summer Dream is of great significance to Ye Weijun. If you give the painting to him, you will definitely receive support from the Ye family.”

Yu Jianhao looked at the message and finally came to a realization.

So the mysterious young man who had spent so much money at the auction was Mr. A!

Yu Jianhao was so excited that he almost lost his grip on his phone and typed a reply while shivering.

“Mr. A, thank you so much!”

“I will definitely remember this favor in my heart forever!”

“In the future, if you need anything from the Yu family, just say the word. I will never refuse to help!”

Lin Bai lay on the soft bed of a five-star hotel. When he saw the message sent by Yu Jianhao, he could not help but grin.

The feeling of being thanked by his future father-in-law was really not bad.

However, he still replied, “You don’t have to thank me so much. I only helped you out on account of your future son-in-law.”

“That kid Lin Bai has great investment foresight. I made a lot of money from his suggestion, so this painting can be considered as me returning his favor.”

Lin Bai praised himself using the identity of Mr. A.

Yu Jianhao was still grateful. At the same time, he was secretly glad that he didn’t rudely break up the couple.

Otherwise, not only would he lose a prospective son-in-law who was an investment genius, but he would also lose the opportunity for the entire family to rise!

Yu Jianhao typed a message to thank Lin Bai while saying to his daughter, “Jinmo, you must get along well with Lin Bai in the future. Don’t throw a tantrum and quarrel with him, understand?”

Yu Jinmo asked in confusion, “Dad, why are you saying this all of a sudden?”

Yu Jianhao took a deep breath and said to her, “Do you know who that young man at the auction today is? He is Mr. A!”

“He told me just now that he gave us this painting because of Lin Bai, so as to return the favor to him.”

Yu Jinmo covered her mouth in surprise.

“Oh my God! He is Mr. A?!”

“He looks so young. He shouldn’t be much older than Lin Bai and I, right?”

Yu Jianhao nodded. “Yes, you can’t judge a book by its cover.”

“He is so young, but he already has so many assets. The family behind him can only be stronger.”

“For a family like ours, we wouldn’t have had any contact with him for ten lifetimes if it weren’t for Lin Bai.”

“That’s why I said that it’s fate that brought you and Lin Bai together. It’s also our family’s fortune.”

“The two of you must get along well. Don’t let anything bad happen to you, understand?”

Yu Jinmo nodded. “I understand. Don’t worry, Dad. Our relationship is very good.”

“That’s good.”

As they spoke, Mr. A sent many more messages. They were mostly about Ye Qingyan and Old Master Ye’s past.

After Yu Jianhao finished reading, he finally understood why the painting “Summer Dream” was so important to Old Master Ye Weijun.

At the same time, he also understood why Mr. A was so sure that as long as he gave this painting, he would definitely receive the support of the Ye family.

Yu Jianhao hesitated for a moment before replying solemnly.

“Mr. A, I only realized now that what you gave me was not only a painting but also a pass to enter the capital.”

“Our entire family will have a chance to rise up because of your generous gift.”

“I will definitely remember your great kindness forever. Whether you need me to return the favor or not, I will always be grateful.”

On the other end of the phone, Lin Bai smiled faintly.

He said, “You don’t have to thank me. Just cherish your son-in-law-to-be.”

“When you rise to the top in the future, don’t forget that your son-in-law-to-be is a part of it.”

Yu Jianhao replied, “Of course. The Yu Corporation will be his in the future.”

Lin Bai did not continue to reply. Instead, he stood up and poured himself a glass of red wine. He sat by the window and looked down at the night view of the city.

“One day, I will let everyone in this city remember Lin Bai’s name.”

Lin Bai muttered to himself softly, then raised his glass and downed the wine in one gulp.

What he didn’t know was that although his real name was still unknown, his actions at the auction today had already spread throughout the upper-class social circle of the city.

All the big families were doing everything they could to investigate in a bid to find out who he was.

They also wanted to know what kind of relationship he had with Yu Jianhao, and why he had given away the painting for no reason.

As one of the top families in the capital, the Ye family naturally received the news soonest and learned about the various events that had happened at the auction.

This was especially so for Old Master Ye, who was so excited that he almost sent someone to his house to ask for the painting when he knew that his beloved granddaughter’s last work had finally appeared in the world again.

If it weren’t for the juniors of his family stopping him, he would have called Yu Jianhao personally long ago.

In the end, even though the old man resisted the urge to call, he was so excited that he didn’t sleep the whole night.

He also asked someone to look up all the information about the Yu family and read it all in one night.

Early the next morning, Old Master Ye couldn’t wait to contact Yu Jianhao.

The juniors of the Ye family tried to persuade him again and finally convinced him to finish his breakfast first.

On the other hand, Yu Jianhao did not sleep at all.

He rehearsed in his mind and imagined every detail. He was afraid that he would do something wrong when he met Old Master Ye and make him unhappy.

In the end, he received a call from Old Master ye before he even left the house.

“I’m Ye Weijun.”

Old Master Ye went straight to the point. “I heard that my granddaughter’s Summer Dream is in your hands. I’m willing to pay five billion. Can you sell it to me?”

Ye Weijun changed his usual arrogant attitude and used an almost pleading tone to discuss with Yu Jianhao.

Yu Jianhao never expected that Old Master Ye would personally call him before he went to visit him. Moreover, his attitude was so subservient.

He was nervous and excited, so much that he was almost speechless.

On the other end of the phone, Ye Weijun did not hear a reply for a long time and he started thinking that he was unwilling to transfer the painting to him.
