Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist's Uncle

Chapter 317: Wanting To Act Like A Couple With An Old Man

[Expert Here: I’ve appraised it with the naked eye, and my Ci would not fool us with fake products. The ring is definitely real. Please state its specific price below.]

[A Humble Note: The jade ring that Emperor Wu of Han gave Flying General, Li Guang, is priceless. It’s estimated to be worth five figures. It’s more than enough to buy one a courtyard house in the capital’s Chang’an District.]

[Famous Cis: Ahhhh, Huo Ci, you liar! You actually used the money we gave you to buy yourself this jade ring. Sisters, I’ll be leaving. Don’t stop me!]

[Huo Ci’s Global Backup Club V: Your long-cherished wish was fulfilled in one day. Don’t you plan to film a few television dramas and movies to celebrate? Don’t you want us to be happy? ]

[Little Sweet Bean: A lady is officially out. Wake him up quickly. If he doesn’t film a drama soon, he won’t make it in time for the Spring Festival. That’s my sustenance!]

[Lone Island’s Little Cis: Cough, cough, cough. Please help me tell Brother Ci that I’m terminally ill and in urgent need of a film to extend my life. Also, please provide me with a selfie to give me oxygen.]

Ling Sheng realized that she liked to read her father’s Weibo comments. She would discover something new every time. There were all kinds of humor and silly comments. A Weibo post without any moderation of fan comments was really interesting.

She only realized after flipping through the comments that many, many years ago, her father had filmed a period drama. The role he had played had been in a scene that involved Emperor Wu of Han giving the jade thumb ring to Li Guang. From then on, he had been longing to have a jade thumb ring.

Because of that wish, he had once bought a fake jade ring and had gotten scammed. The seller had even lied to him and said that there were actually two such rings. The one he had bought was the ring that Emperor Wu of Han had given Weiqing. The two rings looked the same, but the words carved on them were different.

He had been very happy at the time and had even worn it during an interview. However, he had ended up on the headlines of the entertainment newspapers the next day and had been mocked by experts. They had said that the ring was fake. In the end, he had been used by the then not-so-famous 315 Consumer Rights TV Show in an episode to warn consumers about con artists.

Many years later, someone had asked him about the jade ring on the show. The Little Cis had held a grudge and had been longing to get a real one for him so that they could wash away their previous shame.

Now that this was finally happening, they had to make a big fuss and announce it to the world to vent the anger that had been accumulating for more than 10 years.

When Ling Sheng went out to get water, she saw her father standing in front of the fridge and drinking water. He was even wearing the jade thumb ring. “Father, the Little Cis told you to be careful. You can’t pay for it if you break it!”

“Scram!” Huo Ci sneered and shot her a look, looking very fierce. “I’m not a child.”

Ling Sheng smiled and took out a bottle of water. However, she could not open it.

Huo Ci snatched it over, unscrewed the cap, and passed it to her with a look of disdain. That brat was so stupid that she left him speechless.

“Thank you, Father.” Ling Sheng smiled until her eyes curved. Then, she asked, “By the way, Father, didn’t you get invited to Director Chen Mo’s movie auditions?”

“I wouldn’t have had the time to go even if I had been invited.” Then, Huo Ci glared at her. “Do you want us to act as a couple?”

Ling Sheng did not manage to drink the water in one gulp. Instead, she nearly spat it out. Her face flushed red as she let out a few low coughs. She wanted to ask why he was so confident that he would have been chosen if he had gone. She did not have the guts to ask, though. “I was wrong, Father. It’s good that you didn’t go. Anyway, these resources are nothing to you. Do you have any movies you want to film?”

Upon seeing her father roll his eyes at her before leaving as though he was not acknowledging his family, Ling Sheng announced on the spot that the mission given to her by Sister Mei had failed completely. She did not know if Director Chen Mo had invited him, as his words had been ambiguous.
