Defrosting The Cold Young Master

Chapter 2391: Chapter 2395: You’re So Cute

Xiao Shumiao was filled with righteous indignation, while Qin Junye looked indifferent.

He shook his head and refused, "Forget it, I’ll be happy just to get the walnut. Although he hasn’t treated me well, no matter what, he’s still Grandpa’s son. If he lives very miserably, Grandpa will be sad in the afterlife."

"Oh..." Xiao Shumiao was very disappointed.

But he thought Qin Junye made sense: "I know, this is called looking at the monk’s face because of the Buddha’s face."

"Correct," Qin Junye nodded, cherishingly touching the walnut in his hand, "This is Grandpa’s favorite thing when he was alive. When he was free, he would play with it in his hands. Grandpa originally left it to me, but it was seized by my second uncle. Now that I’ve taken it back, it’s like Grandpa is still with me. As for Second brother... out of respect for Grandpa, I won’t stoop to his level."

Ye Xingbei chuckled softly and said to Gu Junzhu, "This child has a decent disposition, capable of tolerance."

Some might find such a temperament not quick to seek vengeance, but similarly, raising a child like this means not having to worry about them repaying kindness with enmity in the future.

Despite Qin the Second being so harsh to him, he is still willing to speak for Qin the Second.

He certainly won’t let down those who treat him well.

"Hmm," Gu Junzhu nodded and reached out to Qin Junye: "Let me have a look."

Qin Junye looked at the walnut in his hand: "Walnut?"

"Yes." Gu Junzhu nodded.

"Oh." Qin Junye handed the walnut to Gu Junzhu.

Gu Junzhu held the two walnuts in his hands, fiddled with them for a moment, and said, "This isn’t called a walnut, it’s called a muffled lionhead, a type of ornamental walnut. It has dull ears and a blunt point, its color like amber, very beautiful, and it’s the kind of ornamental walnut most loved by enthusiasts."

"Ornamental walnut?" Xiao Shumiao stood on tiptoe and reached out to Gu Junzhu: "Daddy, I want to see too!"

Gu Junzhu smiled and handed the walnut to him: "Do you like it? If you like it, Daddy will get you a pair."

Ye Xingbei: "... Isn’t it just old people who like to fiddle with such things?"

Gu Junzhu said: "It’s just an object to hold and play with; does age matter? As long as my son likes it."

Xiao Shumiao held the two walnuts in his hands, rubbed them, and said, "They are indeed very beautiful, and they feel great, cool and smooth."

Gu Junzhu smirked and asked Qin Junye: "Do you know the value of these muffled lionheads?"

Qin Junye shook his head: "I don’t know."

Gu Junzhu glanced at the walnuts in Xiao Shumiao’s hand: "Your grandpa’s pair of muffled lionheads is of good quality, and in the market, they can sell for at least a million."

"A million?" Qin Junye was stunned: "A million dollars?"

Gu Junzhu nodded: "Yes."

Qin Junye looked at him skeptically: "You’re not lying to me?"

Xiao Shumiao frowned, stuffed the walnut into his hands, and said loudly: "My dad never lies!"

Qin Junye was a bit embarrassed, "Xiao Shu, don’t be mad, I’m not doubting Uncle’s honesty, I’m just too surprised, it’s just something I blurted out."

Xiao Shumiao wasn’t mad anymore, generously saying, "Alright then, I won’t be mad."

Qin Junye laughed, "Xiao Shu, you’re really cute."

Xiao Shumiao looked at him puzzled, not knowing why he was considered cute.

Gu Junzhu chuckled, "If you don’t believe it, I can find you a buyer now, cash in hand, goods exchanged."

"I won’t sell, no matter the price," Qin Junye tightened his grip on the walnut, "This is the memory Grandpa left for me; I want it to be a family heirloom, I will never sell it!"
