My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 897 Good Blessings

Next was Nan Shiren's and Nan Shikun's turn. They, too, presented some expensive gifts.

Technically speaking, Nan Shize should have gone together with Nan Shiren and Nan Shikun.

However, Bai Hua refused to do that, as if she wanted to stand out.

She waited until the two brothers had finished presenting their presents before walking over with Nan Shize and carrying a box in her hand.

“Mom, may you have a long life. I know you are a staunch Buddhist, so I've prepared a string of prayer beads for you. I hope you'll like it. This string of prayer beads was once used by Wu Zetian more than one thousand years ago,” informed Bai Hua.

People usually never show off how expensive their gift was. Bai Hua, however, was the total opposite.

Nan Chen's gaze turned cold when he heard that. At the same time, he was puzzled. Isn't the string of prayer beads used by Wu Zetian the one Ning Ran and I will be giving? And now Mom has one, too? That can't be right. That set is one of a kind. Did Mom get a counterfeit?

“Oh, my! You didn't have to spend so much. You guys are making me feel bad,” said Feng Wan with a smile.

No doubt, an item used by Wu Zetian, an empress, would be extremely expensive. It would make Feng Wan look good in front of everyone.

The surrounding guests were influential people. Most of them had seen a lot in their life and were knowledgeable in terms of market prices of collector's items.

Hence, the crowd immediately began chatting among themselves. Most of them said they heard of the prayer beads before but never had the chance to see them. Thus, they wanted to have a good look at it that day.

Feng Wan opened the box under the request and the curious eyes of the guests.

Alas, the sight of the prayer beads was greeted by silence. That was because the prayer beads in the box looked unbelievably plain. With one glance, one could tell it was not an antique. Instead, it was just a cheap item that could be bought online.

Even people who did not know the industry well could tell the prayer beads were not something from the Tang Dynasty. It was just a modern craft made of plastic.

Bai Hua's expression darkened instantly. Didn't I get someone to exchange it with Ning Ran's string? Even the housekeeper told me it was done. What's this now?

When Bai Hua heard from Nan Xing that the gift Ning Ran prepared was a string of prayer beads from the Tang Dynasty, the former figured Ning Ran would surely steal the spotlight. Hence, she was displeased about it.

The gift she was originally planning to give was actually not bad, for it cost her a million. However, the difference would be drastic if her gift was compared to Ning Ran's.

switch Ning Ran's gift with a cheap string of prayer beads that she got from the streets that was not worth much. Then, the housekeeper would replace the cheap product she got with Ning Ran's gift. That way, Bai Hua would steal the spotlight, while Ning Ran would be humiliated in front of everyone.
