Just after coming down the mountain, the beautiful CEO took me to register

Chapter 176 5 colored stones

Zhao Ziqing glanced at him and felt that there seemed to be something hidden behind that smile. "Of course I remember, you promised me. But your smile makes me feel a little strange."

"Weird? What's weird about it?" Lin Fan pretended to be stupid.

"Did you forget something important?" Zhao Ziqing asked tentatively.

"Important? Are you talking about the love poison?" Lin Fan responded, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes. "Actually, I've been wanting to find a chance to solve this with you. How about we find a time?"

Zhao Ziqing looked at him warily, "Don't try to take advantage of me. You tried to take advantage of me yesterday in the office."

Lin Fan smiled helplessly, "I just want to help you get rid of the love poison, nothing else. So when do you think it will be resolved?"

"I'll talk about it after I think it over." Zhao Ziqing replied calmly. She looked at Lin Fan. Although she liked him in her heart, she was not ready to take the next step.

When they arrived at the company, Lin Fan found a top-level martial arts manual suitable for women and handed it to Zhao Ziqing. "Take a look first. If you don't understand anything, come and ask me."

Afterwards, Lin Fan called Xu Kai over. When he suggested that Xu Kai practice martial arts, Xu Kai was so excited that he almost jumped up. "Brother Fan, really? Can I practice martial arts?"

"Of course, but you have to promise me that you will protect President Su after you have mastered it." Lin Fan said seriously.

"Protect President Su? Of course, even if I'm torn to pieces, I won't let her get hurt at all!" Xu Kai said solemnly.

At this moment, Lin Fan's phone rang. It was the carving master Chen Luobai calling, "Have you forgotten about me, your master?"

"How could that be, Master? I'll come to see you right now." Lin Fan said with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, he asked Xu Kai to protect Zhao Ziqing well, then picked up a box of Moutai and drove to Chen Luobai's residence.

"Master, this is a gift to you." Lin Fan handed the Maotai to Chen Luobai.

"Haha, you still have a conscience." Chen Luobai happily accepted the Maotai. "By the way, I plan to invite some old friends to be witnesses of my apprenticeship."

After discussing the matters of becoming his disciple, Lin Fan took out the multicolored jade and said, "Master, have you ever seen multicolored jade like this?"

Chen Luobai carefully examined the multicolored jade, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "This completely natural texture doesn't look like it was made by human hands..."

"It's the key to my search for the mystery of my origins," Lin Fan said softly, "perhaps it can lead me to find my lost biological parents."

"Are you... an orphan?" Chen Luobai's tone revealed a hint of tenderness.

"Yeah." Lin Fan responded simply.

Chen Luobai's eyes grew even softer as he heard this. He once again examined the multicolored jade and suddenly stood up, "Follow me."

Although Lin Fan was puzzled, he followed him into the inner room. Chen Luobai lightly touched the scroll on the shelf, and the wall next to it slowly opened, revealing a hidden space.

"This is..." A hint of surprise flashed across Lin Fan's eyes, but when he thought of Chen Luobai's identity, he felt relieved. "Secret room?"

Chen Luobai said nothing, simply leading him deeper. Inside the secret room, there was a sturdy steel door. Chen Luobai quickly completed the iris and fingerprint verification, and the door opened.

Behind the door was a spacious room with shelves filled with all kinds of jade.

"This is my lifelong collection, which includes many masterpieces of masters and my own hard work." Chen Luobai introduced.

"These treasures are worth a lot of money, right?" Lin Fan asked directly.

"Indeed, the total value is billions." Chen Luobai responded calmly, looking forward to seeing Lin Fan's surprised expression.

However, Lin Fan frowned and asked, "So many treasures are only worth billions?"

Chen Luobai's mouth twitched slightly. The young man's tone made it seem as if billions were nothing.

Suddenly, Lin Fan's attention was drawn to something. "Emerald watermelon?"

"Oh? Do you recognize this thing? It was carved by my uncle imitating the favorite treasure of Empress Dowager Cixi." Chen Luobai explained.

"I just heard about it last night, and today I am lucky enough to see it." Lin Fan exclaimed.

"Since you are interested in this, you might as well take a look at this." Chen Luobai handed over a piece of colorful jade.

Lin Fan took it and examined it carefully. This piece of multicolored jade was similar to the one in his hand, yet different.

"This jade has an extraordinary origin. It was passed down from our elders. It is said to be related to the five-colored stone that Nuwa used to repair the sky." Chen Luobai said mysteriously.

"The five-colored stone that Nuwa used to mend the sky?" Lin Fan's heart trembled. Could the five-colored jade in his hand be related to the five-colored stone in mythology?

However, he quickly calmed down and compared the two pieces of colorful jade, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

"This piece of jade of yours is naturally undecorated. If it weren't for my poor eyesight, I would hardly be able to see any traces of artificial decoration." Chen Luobai looked at Lin Fan's colorful jade again.

"If the five-colored stone was not just a myth, I would almost think that this is the one in your hand." He said with a smile.

Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat. Could this really be the Five-Colored Stone? Then, what kind of shocking secret would this be about his life?

"Master, did the master who carved the five-colored jade leave any records about the five-colored stones?" he asked anxiously.

"I don't know about this, but I will help you find out." Chen Luobai promised.

Lin Fan nodded and gently placed the multicolored jade back on the shelf, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

"If you want to be my disciple, I will need to prepare a gift. I will give you this five-colored jade." Chen Luobai said generously.

"This... is too valuable. Moreover, it comes from your master. I really dare not accept it." Lin Fan declined.

"What? Isn't my master's sect your master's sect? Young man, don't be so shy. Just take it if it's given to you." Chen Luobai's face darkened and he said in a displeased manner.

"Then... thank you very much for your generous gift, Master." Lin Fan smiled and accepted the gift readily.

"That's right. Come, let me show you my treasure..." Chen Luobai smiled again and enthusiastically took Lin Fan to visit.

However, a few minutes later, Lin Fan's expression became strange: "Master, why are all the collections here fake? Are they all imitations?"

"Cough, kid, what nonsense are you talking about." Chen Luobai coughed dryly with some embarrassment.

"These are replicas of legendary treasures. The originals are almost extinct. However, if these replicas were to be released, they would surely cause a sensation. They might even be mistaken for the real thing and fetch exorbitant prices."

"I see." Lin Fan nodded, his eyes moving among the collections. He noticed the emerald watermelon and emerald cabbage.

Especially the jade cabbage, which is almost indistinguishable from the real thing in the museum. The only difference is that the color of the jade itself is slightly different.

After all, there are no two leaves in the world that are exactly the same, nor are there two pieces of jade that are exactly the same. Each piece is a unique treasure.

Ten minutes later, the two men walked out of the secret room.
