CHAPTER 819 THE SECOND GIFT

"It's like this." Sun Yuheng explained as calmly as possible, "I also wanted this Original Drawing so I went to Mr. Su's house a few days ago and hoped that he would sell this Original Drawing to me. However, Mr. Su refused to sell it and took out a defective one. I thought it was not bad, so I bought it. Little did I know that this would happen."

"So that's how it is." Everyone laughed and the thin young man felt everyone's attention on him and his face flushed. Not only did he not know who posted the photos on the Internet, but he also didn't know where Sun Yuheng bought the Picture Scroll from.

"It is impossible for the Prajñā Meditation Sutra that Mr. Su took out to be a fake."

"This is a big deal, how can such a treasure be given away."

"Gift Presenting Mad Demon is Gift Presenting Mad Demon, how can ordinary people compare to him."

Everyone quickly forgot about this little episode just now and gathered around the Prajñā Meditation Sutra, their eyes were radiating as they were amazed by the gift and its value.

The thin young man whispered in Sun Yuheng's ear, "Young Master Sun, I'm sorry, I didn't know."

Sun Yuheng scolded in a low voice: "Next time, don't embarrass me again."

The thin young man lowered his head and said, "Yes, then do you still want to give away the Prajñā Meditation Sutra you prepared?"

Sun Yuheng slapped the thin young man and said: "How can I send this gift now? Wouldn't that make me look like an idiot? Hurry up and help me prepare another one." Originally, even if the Picture Scroll was defective, it would have been enough to impress all the guests and become Hu Xingming's favorite gift.

However, now it would amount to nothing. He hated this situation so much and he even thought that Su Jing must have done it on purpose.

The crowd gathered around Prajñā Meditation Sutra Original Drawing and were amazed. Hu Xingming obviously liked it too.

After watching it for a long time, he suddenly put the picture scroll away, as if he had made a great decision, and handed the picture scroll to Su Jing and said: "Mr. Su, I appreciate your kindness, thank you very much for your gift, but this gift is too expensive, I really can't accept it."

"Governor Hu, in my opinion, this is just a Buddha Statue Scripture, there is no distinction between it being precious or not. The reason why it is precious is only that the price was raised by some people, in fact, this is just a piece of paper in my mind so I ask Governor Hu to accept it." Su Jing said.

"I really can't accept it." Hu Xingming declined with a smile and handed the Buddhist scripture Buddha Statue back to Su Jing. With a firm attitude, Su Jing had no choice but to take the picture scroll back.

Everyone has to admire Hu Xingming's self-control. Although this gift may sell for 100 million, it is still just a piece of paper with a Buddha Statue picture.

Even if Hu Xingming accepts it and takes it for himself, it will not leave too much evidence. You say it's worth $100 million. I say it's just a piece of paper. Anyone else might have been tempted to take it.

"Governor Hu, since you don't accept this gift, I have to prepare another one." Su Jing said.

"Young man, I have received your wishes so you don't need to bother with another gift." Hu Xingming said.

"I can't do that, since I'm here today, I must give you your birthday gift. It's in the car, I'll bring it up soon, so you just wait a moment." Su Jing said before he turned around and walked towards the stairs.

Many people present felt a little terrified. Not only did this guy prepare the Prajñā Meditation Buddha Statue Original Drawing, but he also prepared other gifts. Is he even planning to let them give their gifts?

Wang Siya quickly caught up with Su Jing and whispered beside him: "A'Jing, I didn't expect you to prepare the Prajñā Meditation Sutra Original Drawing. You are too much, don't you feel bad? Don't give something so precious, it would hurt me even if it doesn't hurt you. Besides, Governor Hu is not related to you or us for that matter, so I'm afraid he wouldn't dare to accept gifts that are too expensive. Giving him expensive and precious give may be counterproductive."

"I understand, don't worry, I have my way." Su Jing smiled as he spoke and he quickly went downstairs and came back after a while. What he was holding in his hand was not one thing, but several, which made everyone gulp their saliva.

When Su Jing went to pick up his second gift, no one else gave their gifts to Governor Hu.

It was already a great pressure to give gifts to someone after him. Besides, he still had another gift so wouldn't their gifts be crushed to the point where there is not even ash remaining if it gets sandwiched between Su Jing's gifts?

"This guy hasn't prepared another expensive present, has he?"

"Probably not. Governor Hu liked the Prajñā Meditation Sutra so much but he still chose to return it. He had made his intentions very clear. He won't be accepting any expensive gift."

"That's right, Governor Hu is in a high position. Even if he receives expensive gifts at the birthday banquet, he would easily be criticized and it may even cause trouble for him.

Su Jing is not a relative or friend of Governor Hu, so it makes sense that Governor Hu didn't accept his gift."

"The Gift Presenting Mad Demon has finally been limited. This time, he must have brought some ordinary gifts."

In front of everyone, Su Jing handed out a gift, which was a wrapped box. Hu Xingming didn't accept it right away. He hesitated for a moment but took the box and asked, "This is not an extremely precious gift, right?"

"It's just a few things that I picked up by the beach." Su Jing laughed.

"That's fine then." Hu Xingming said as he opened the package in public. The moment he saw the contents of the box clearly, he was so shocked that he almost threw the box out, and everyone around him exclaimed again.

They all saw that there were eight pearls in the box, they shined with a golden hue, they were round and jade-like, each of which was astonishingly large, and the eight were connected together.

They were so blindingly bright that everyone opened their mouths and their jaws almost fell to the ground. Damn it, are you sure these are some things that you picked from the beach? What beach is that?
