Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 478: Chapter 506 Black Gold Card (3rd Update)

"You don’t understand anything, how can you buy it for your grandpa?" Since they were already inside, Lin Xi had to give this brat a good lesson.

Shangguan Hong was a bit embarrassed just now, thinking Lin Xi was going to help him, but didn’t expect to be scolded, and he got a little angry.

After all, at home, no one dared to speak to him like that; he was always treated as a precious little ancestor, feared to melt by holding him too tightly.

The only person he feared slightly was his sister Shangguan Nishang.

To him, Lin Xi was just someone he called brother-in-law, but not sincerely, as they had only met twice, and he didn’t really know Lin Xi.

As for why he called Lin Xi brother-in-law so smoothly, it mostly stemmed from some revenge against his sister.

So, his small face frowned as he disdainfully said, "Isn’t it easy? Just buy the most expensive one!"

"Besides, I’m not short on money, even if it’s a bit expensive, so be it!"

"As long as it’s good stuff, that’s fine!"

Seeing him like this, Lin Xi found it amusing; the brat’s frowning face was quite interesting.

Since he thought this way, Lin Xi didn’t give more advice, as he wasn’t an expert in antiques either, so he just smiled and said,

"Well then, Xiaohong, I won’t say more!"

After that, ignoring Shangguan Hong, whose face had turned black, Lin Xi stood aside, casually observing the antiques in the store.

"Xiaohong?" Shangguan Hong gritted his teeth a bit; he hated being called that.

Because it sounded like a girl’s nickname, calling a boy that was too effeminate.

Moreover, he knew he was too pretty and easily misunderstood, so he disliked being called that even more.

Luckily, he didn’t know that Lin Xi meant ’Hong’ in that sense, or else he wouldn’t have let it go with Lin Xi.

As he was about to let Lin Xi call him by his real name, the owner of the antique store came over with a wooden tray, on which was something as big as a human head, covered with a red cloth.

Shangguan Hong’s eyes lit up, instantly attracted, and he eagerly asked, "Boss, is this the treasure of the store you mentioned?"

The owner smiled mysteriously, nodding.

The other three, including Lin Xi, also looked over, wanting to know what kind of treasure it was.

"Then hurry up and let me see!" Shangguan Hong said.

At this time, the owner shook his head, looking at the little brat in front of him, he hesitantly asked, "Young Master Hong, let me say first, this is very expensive!"

"Price is not a problem, as long as the stuff is good!" Shangguan Hong said impatiently.

"The thing is definitely good!" The owner promised, taking a deep breath, "But it costs a million!"

Until now, the owner was still skeptical of Shangguan Hong, a million is a hefty sum that even most adults can’t afford, let alone a child.

However, this child in front of him seemed extraordinary, potentially capable of having it, and his tone was always boastful.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Hong proudly took out a black card from his pocket, flashed it in front of the owner, and then tucked it back into his pants pocket.

"Black Gold Card!!!" The owner held back a gasp of surprise.

He had seen this card on a person of great importance; it was the most prestigious card from the bank, overdrawing one or two million was no big deal.

The key was, this card wasn’t something ordinary people could have, even if you were worth tens of millions, it might not be attainable.

In short, it symbolized identity and status.

Lin Xi also knew about the Black Gold Card; he had been proactively gifted one by the bank before, but he hadn’t paid much attention, though he knew only a very few people could get it.

Inside the store, the other three didn’t understand what the card represented, but seeing the owner’s surprise, they reckoned it was not simple.

The woman among them, probably twenty-five or twenty-six, looked plain; she noticed the owner’s shock and a barely noticeable smile flashed across her face while staring at Shangguan Hong. Besides Lin Xi vaguely sensing it, others didn’t notice.
