521: Your watch looks fake.

Ye Su felt no burden at all about being a traitor behind someone's back and telling Zhang Fengmao that he had been deceived by Wu Xingbang.

The mission reward mentioned again that as long as he told Zhang Fengmao about the fake watch, he would receive a watch of the same model, which was estimated to be worth several million.

With such a generous reward, Ye Su couldn't find a single reason to keep the secret for Wu Lianfang's cousin.

Ignoring Zhang Xuantong's baring of fangs and brandishing of claws, which showed no threat at all but rather looked a bit cute, Ye Su reached out to Zhang Fengmao and said:

"Godfather, let me take a look at your watch."

"Hmm?"

Seeing Ye Su, who just a moment ago said he didn't want a watch, now reaching out to ask for one in the blink of an eye.

The 180-degree turn in attitude left Zhang Fengmao stunned for a moment.

Immediately, thinking that Ye Su liked this watch and had changed his mind on a whim, Zhang Fengmao readily handed it over:

"Here you go."

Looking at Zhang Fengmao's generous action, it was as if he wasn't handing over a luxury watch worth several million, but a toy watch worth a few hundred.

But to Zhang Fengmao's surprise, after taking the watch, Ye Su showed no joy at all. Instead, he brought the watch up to his eyes and examined it extremely carefully, as if he didn't want to miss a single detail.

"What's wrong?"

Having never suspected that the watch he wore could be a fake, Zhang Fengmao smiled and asked, seeing Ye Su's unusual behavior:

"Is your occupational disease acting up again? Do you have to study the details of everything you get your hands on?"

"Hiss—"

Hearing Zhang Fengmao's words, Ye Su pretended to be conflicted and sucked in a breath of cold air.

Thinking that this reaction meant Ye Su didn't like the watch after looking at it, Zhang Fengmao scolded with a smile:

"If you don't like it, you don't like it. At worst, I'll get you a new one later. Why are you making a face like you're constipated?"

Seeing that the act had played out enough, Ye Su finally spoke up: "Godfather, there seems to be something wrong with your watch."

"Hmm?" Zhang Fengmao paused, confused: "What kind of problem?"

"This watch seems to be fake."

With that one sentence, Ye Su drew the attention of the three people in the living room to the watch he handed back to Zhang Fengmao.

If some unrelated person had said he was wearing a fake watch, Zhang Fengmao would have just sneered, or even thought the person was deliberately looking for trouble.

But coming from Ye Su, Zhang Fengmao couldn't ignore it:

"This is a fake watch? Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

Half-believing and half-doubting, he took the watch and examined the dial. Recalling slightly the origin of the watch, he remembered that he had let Wu Xingbang buy it.

"I'm not sure either." Ye Su didn't commit fully:

"At first glance, this watch looks real, but there are some minor issues with certain details, just like those professional high-end replicas from Yangcheng, which is why I suspected it might be fake.

But normally, it's impossible for you to wear a fake watch, so I thought I'd mention it to see if you want to send the watch to a professional institution for testing, just in case someone messed with it when you bought it without you noticing."

Ye Su's words made Zhang Fengmao frown.

Could it be that Wu Xingbang was really bold enough to target him?

Thinking back on Wu Lianfang's cousin—who was overly greedy, short-sighted, and had no real ability—Zhang Fengmao felt it was really possible.

As for Wu Lianfang, the more she looked at this Godson in front of her, the more she liked him. Upon hearing Ye Su's words, she immediately believed it for the most part and advised Zhang Fengmao:

"Fengmao, ASu wouldn't just talk nonsense. I think, to be safe, you should have someone check if this watch is real."

"Yeah." Zhang Xuantong, completely in the mode of someone watching the fun without worrying about it being too big, added fuel to the fire from the side:

"I also think it's better to have someone check it. If there really is a problem with this watch and someone notices it next time, they might think you, Old Zhang, have fallen on hard times and have to wear a fake watch."

Unsurprisingly, Zhang Xuantong, who had a loose mouth and no manners, got slapped on the thigh by Wu Lianfang again.

"Got it. I'll have someone send the watch for appraisal tomorrow."

On one side was his Godson, whom he highly appreciated and whom anyone with eyes could see was very capable. On the other side was an unreliable relative who only knew how to rely on Wu Lianfang's family connections to fish for benefits from him.

Who he should trust more, Zhang Fengmao naturally knew in his heart.

If Wu Xingbang was truly greedy and had targeted him, then he shouldn't blame him for not recognizing those relative ties!

[Ding!]

Just as Zhang Fengmao decided to have someone check the authenticity of the watch tomorrow, Ye Su, who had become a bystander after reporting Wu Xingbang, heard a system prompt.

[Following the Host's reminder, Zhang Fengmao has decided to seek a professional institution to appraise the authenticity of the watch. Congratulations to the Host for completing [hidden task - The Truth Revealed], and receiving the mission reward: one Patek Philippe 6104G-001 Platinum Celestial watch!]

[Hint: This mission reward is a physical item. Please claim it when you are in a secluded area!]

A Patek Philippe, just like that, was in his hands!

This trip today was so worth it!

The two pendants gifted to Wu Lianfang and Zhang Xuantong cost a total of 1.86 million.

How does it feel like this Patek Philippe watch has already earned the money back?

It's a pity that the one in Zhang Fengmao's hand is a fake, so even if he uses the [Item Appraisal] function, he can't know the public price of the real watch.

Ye Su wanted to get up and go home right now to claim the mission reward and see how much this watch was actually worth.

"Godfather." After closing the system, Ye Su handed the bag in his hand to Zhang Fengmao:

"Check if there are any issues with the things you asked me to help you find two days ago."

"Hmm."

The watch being swapped was just a small matter, and Zhang Fengmao didn't pay too much attention to it. However, the possibility of being deceived by Wu Xingbang and wearing a fake watch for so long did make him feel a bit unhappy.

Taking the bag handed over by Ye Su, he glanced inside and then set it aside.

Although Zhang Xuantong was usually carefree at home, she wasn't a naive young lady who didn't know the ways of the world.

Although she was very curious about what was in Ye Su's bag, since Zhang Fengmao didn't say anything, she didn't ask.

After putting down the bag, Zhang Fengmao took out a check he had prepared long ago and handed it to Ye Su:

"I don't know how much you spent. Here is the check, see if it's enough."

This time, finding the lottery tickets was helping Zhang Fengmao, so taking the money was naturally justified. Ye Su didn't decline and reached out to take the check.

4 million!

"It's enough, there's even extra."

Confirming that there were six zeros after the [4], Ye Su was naturally very satisfied with the remuneration Zhang Fengmao gave him.

The lottery tickets and scratch-off lottery tickets he gave Zhang Fengmao had a total prize amount of only 3.4 million. After taking them to the Lottery Center to cash them in, 20% personal income tax would have to be deducted, so the prize money he could actually get would only be around 2.7 million.

Now that Zhang Fengmao spent 4 million to buy the scratch-off lottery tickets, it meant he had earned another 1.2 million.

A Patek Philippe watch, plus over 1.2 million—the income from this trip tonight was likely catching up to a level 7 intelligence report!
