Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Why Spend Money on Something Dug from the Backyard?
“””
For a moment, everyone doubted their life choices.
“Three million…?”
The teacher’s wife, who had just come out of the kitchen with fruit, froze on the spot, muttering incessantly.
She was shocked.
Just an orchid, and it was worth three million?
Mr. Gao’s daughter, the gentle beauty with a score of over 95, Gao Shiyun, was also wide-eyed, staring at the Datang Fengyu.
It wasn’t because of the price, but rather seeing the legendary supreme orchid.
Influenced by her father, Gao Shiyun also had a deep affection for orchids.
Seeing the Datang Fengyu today naturally filled her with immense joy.
“Once the glory of the Tang Dynasty, today it’s the phoenix feather.”
Mr. Gao looked at the Datang Fengyu excitedly, his hands trembling.
“Elegant and imposing, the epitome of charm like a flower queen, with the grace of ‘a beautiful woman from the Southern Kingdom, gracefully dancing with a green waist’ and the courtly aura of ‘dancing in splendid attire,’ perfectly embodying the dignified air of royalty.”
“Truly worthy of being the Datang Fengyu, the supreme orchid!”
After gazing at the Datang Fengyu for a long time, Mr. Gao reluctantly shifted his gaze.
“Little Chen, I appreciate your gesture. Seeing the Datang Fengyu in this lifetime is enough for me. I can’t accept it.”
Despite his reluctance, the Datang Fengyu was too precious for him to accept.
“Whether an orchid has value depends entirely on whose hands it falls into. Teacher, you are someone who understands and loves orchids. Only by giving it to you can its value be realized. Please don’t refuse.”

Hearing this, Mr. Gao became even more emotional.
“A kindred spirit, a kindred spirit.”
Mr. Gao grasped Chu Chen’s hand and said with great emotion.
Chu Chen’s words greatly pleased Mr. Gao, who eventually accepted it.
Chu Chen sat down to chat with Mr. Gao, while Sun Hongshuo and others awkwardly stood by.
A three-million-dollar item was just casually given away?
“Brother Chu is awesome!”
“Orchids have a price, but a teacher’s nurturing cannot be measured. Chen’s heartfelt gesture towards his teacher is truly priceless.”
In the next moment, even those classmates who were initially somewhat put off by Chu Chen started praising his spirit.
Some female classmates even sat beside Chu Chen, eagerly trying to flatter him.
Handsome and wealthy, he was absolutely the best choice for a boyfriend.
“Little Chen, quickly bring out the fruit.”
The teacher’s wife also brought over the fruit, unusually warm and kind.
“Don’t leave today, stay for lunch.”
The cold attitude she previously had towards Chu Chen seemed to vanish.
“Thank you, madam.”
“By the way, Little Chen, it must’ve taken considerable time and effort to acquire the Datang Fengyu. Please tell us about it.”
The teacher was intensely curious about the origins of the Datang Fengyu.
“Yeah, Brother Chen, how much did you actually spend to buy the Datang Fengyu?”
Several other classmates were even more curious about the actual price of the Datang Fengyu.
For a while, all eyes were glued to Chu Chen.
They all wanted to hear about Chu Chen’s extraordinary experience.
Chu Chen responded calmly,
“I’m really sorry, but this Datang Fengyu was casually dug up from the backyard. It didn’t cost much money or effort.”
Chu Chen told them the truth.
“What?”
“Dug up casually from the backyard?”
A cry of surprise rang out, and everyone was stunned!
This was even more shocking than hearing about Chu Chen’s incredible story—not just surprising them!
This wasn’t some orchid worth tens or hundreds; it was a three-million-dollar orchid, enough to buy a house downtown!
And such a priceless orchid wasn’t bought but dug up from the backyard?
And casually at that?!
Hearing Chu Chen’s words, everyone felt as if they’d been struck by lightning.
If it were them, with such a priceless orchid, they would have locked it in a safe, but Chu Chen had casually left it in the backyard?
Could any normal person do this?
No, wait?
They recalled Chu Chen’s words, realizing that the focus wasn’t on that.
If Chu Chen could casually leave a priceless orchid in the backyard, then his backyard must contain countless rare plants that surpassed the Datang Fengyu.
If he was willing to use so many priceless plants to adorn the backyard, how luxurious must his home be, how wealthy must Chu Chen be!
Thinking of this, everyone gasped.
Was this what a true millionaire was?
“Little Chen, do you have other rare plants like the Datang Fengyu in your backyard?”
Mr. Gao asked excitedly.
“My backyard is full of plants, but I haven’t really paid much attention to their value,” Chu Chen spoke honestly.
Hearing this, everyone was even more awestruck; it was truly “luxury beyond belief.”
“Is it convenient for you to show your teacher?”
Hearing there were even more rare plants, Mr. Gao likely wouldn’t be able to sleep well for days without seeing them.
“No problem.”
Chu Fan agreed; it was a trivial matter.
“Brother Chen, we also want to broaden our knowledge and see the plants.”
“Yeah, can we join too?”
A few classmates also spoke up, pretending to want to see the plants when they were actually more interested in checking out Chu Chen’s mansion!
“Sure.”
Chu Chen nodded.
In the end, everyone went downstairs.
“Bugatti, is that a Bugatti?”
As soon as they got downstairs, they saw an incredibly imposing Bugatti parked there.
That car had to be worth at least tens of millions!
Everyone stared dumbfounded at the Bugatti.
“Teacher, get in.”
Under their stunned gazes, Chu Chen opened the car door and invited the teacher to get in.
Was this Bugatti Chu Chen’s?
He was truly a tycoon!
In the end, Mr. Gao and the teacher’s wife got in Chu Chen’s car, and Chu Chen led the way.
Several female classmates, including Mr. Gao’s daughter, Gao Shiyun, sat in the second car, while the remaining male classmates sat in the third car, following Chu Chen’s vehicle.
“I never expected Chu Chen to be so rich; I used to think the rumors were false?”
In the car with the girls, a chubby girl spoke with immense envy.
“So handsome and so rich, he is definitely the first choice for a boyfriend.”
Once someone set the tone, for a while, all the girls in the car started discussing Chu Chen.
“We’re all out of his league. Of all of us here, it’s Gao Shiyun who matches him the best.”
Eventually, everyone turned their eyes to Mr. Gao’s daughter, Gao Shiyun.
When they first saw Gao Shiyun upon entering, even they were astounded, feeling ashamed and had to admit Gao Shiyun was stunning.
She was like the real-life version of a Southern girl depicted in books and paintings—gentle, with a touch of “fairy-like” charm.
“Sister Gao, with Chu Chen being so handsome, won’t you consider it?”
“Yeah, Sister Gao?”
Gao Shiyun blushed a bit, not speaking.
As of now, she had a pretty good impression of Chu Chen; he wasn’t the kind of nouveau riche adorned with gold chains and a flashy watch she found distasteful.
Of course, that’s only based on her current perception; Chu Chen’s character and whether he was a nouveau riche would be known once she saw his home.
As for considering him as a boyfriend, that was too far off—after all, it was just their first meeting.
In the third car, Sun Hongshuo still couldn’t believe Chu Chen had such a top-notch mansion.
Such a mansion must be worth billions, way too much.
“Chu Chen must be bluffing.”
Sun Hongshuo stubbornly insisted.
“Brother Shuo, don’t be impatient; whether Chu Chen is bluffing, we’ll see soon enough.”
In the car, everyone was equally curious and expectant.
