In fact, when Fu Chuanfu said he was the butler of the Veronica Family, Edgar Austin guessed that the equipment on the truck on the roadside was sent by Veronica Veronica. He was ordering equipment on Alibaba. The equipment sent by Veronica Veronica was a very advanced CNC lathe, which was very valuable. Lei Ma Studio needed such equipment very much. If he accepted the equipment sent by Veronica Veronica, he could also withdraw the funds for ordering the equipment and use it for other purposes, such as buying a better car or something. However, he made a different decision.
"Thank you, Mr. Fu. Please tell me Miss Veronica. I appreciate her kindness, but I won't accept her things. You can take them back,"Edgar Austin said.
"Why is this?" Fu Chuanfu looked at Edgar Austin in confusion. He obviously didn't expect Edgar Austin to refuse.
Edgar Austin said: "No reason."
A man should have the integrity of a man, and he doesn’t want this kind of charity gift!
"Oh, I remembered. You said that if our young lady wants to thank you, she can donate one million to a nursing home or orphanage. Don't worry, I have already done this." Fu Chuanfu smiled. He said, then took out a receipt and handed it to Edgar Austin, "This is a receipt for a one million donation, it was donated in your name."
Taking the receipt and seeing the donor "Edgar Austin" on it, Edgar Austin didn't know what to do.
"My lady has fulfilled her promise. The equipment on that truck is my lady's heart. Please accept it, Mr. Xia." Fu Chuanfu looked sincere.
Edgar Austin still shook his head, "I'll accept this receipt as a souvenir. You'd better take back the equipment in the car, I won't accept it."
"Mr. Xia, you..." Fu Chuanfu looked embarrassed, but he didn't look angry at all.
Stephen Price sneered and said: "Mr. Fu, some people are born to be cheap. If you give them good meat, they won't want it. They insist on digging for food in the garbage dump. I think it's better to forget it."
Fu Chuanfu suddenly raised his head and glared at Stephen, "What are you talking about here? Why are you talking to Mr. Xia?"
"I..."Stephen Price was suddenly confused. He couldn't understand. He was obviously speaking for Fu Chuanfu, but Fu Chuanfu suddenly became angry with him, and he didn't save any face!
At this time Edgar Austin smiled and said, "Mr. Fu, you heard me too. I can only dig for food in the garbage dump. I am almost a beggar. How can I accept a gift from a noble person like Miss Veronica? You'd better take it Let's go back."
Fu Chuanfu then said, "Mr. Xia, don't get me wrong. My lady never looks down on anyone, and she definitely doesn't mean to disrespect you at all."
Edgar Austin shrugged, "Mr. Fu, you'd better stop talking. I've made it very clear that I won't ask for anything in the car. You can take it back."
Fu Chuanfu looked at Stephen again, "Why are you still standing? Why don't you apologize to Mr. Xia quickly!"
"I..."Stephen Price couldn't say anything. His face turned green and red for a while, and he was extremely embarrassed and angry. He just described Edgar Austin as a beggar digging in the garbage, but in the next moment he was scolded and asked to apologize to him for being a beggar in his eyes!
Edgar Austin was still thinking about how to refuse the equipment sent by Veronica Veronica, but Kaiden Barlow on the side intervened and said: "Old gentleman, this kid lacks education and was very arrogant just now. If you ask him to apologize to us, we will accept it. Equipment outside.”
Edgar Austin wanted to stop Kaiden Barlow, but Kaiden Barlow spoke quickly and blurted out the words in the blink of an eye.
Fu Chuanfu seemed to see the hope of making a deal. He then said to Stephen Price: "Stephen, didn't you hear? Apologize to Mr. Xia quickly!"
Stephen Price face turned red and his mouth opened wide, but he didn't utter a single word for a while.
Kaiden Barlow was still adding fuel to the fire, "I thought some people were number one in the world, but I didn't expect that there would be such cowards. Hahaha, interesting, interesting."
"You -"Stephen Price glared at Kaiden Barlow. If Fu Chuanfu hadn't been around, he would have kicked him.
"You want to hit me? Come on!"Kaiden Barlow deliberately made trouble.
Edgar Austin said: "Kaiden An, stop making trouble."
Kaiden Barlow just shut up. He didn't listen to anyone, but Edgar Austin Lei had to listen.
Fu Chuanfu's face became increasingly ugly, "Stephen Price, do you want me to go back and tell the lady that it was because of you that Mr. Xia refused to accept her gift?"
As soon as he heard this, Stephen Price's face suddenly turned pale. He looked at Edgar Austin, feeling extremely reluctant, but he could only lower his head and said calmly: "Mr. Xia, I'm sorry, it was my fault just now. , please forgive me."
Edgar Austin said calmly: "You must learn to be polite from now on. This is the most basic rule of life."
Stephen Price gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "I know."
"And me?"Kaiden Barlow said: "He hasn't apologized to me yet."
Stephen Price's eyes were so cold that he wanted to kill someone.
Fu Chuanfu said: "Stephen Price, hurry up!"
Stephen Price then faced Kaiden Barlow again and said with a cold expression: "I'm sorry!"
"Hahaha!"Kaiden Barlow smiled happily.
Stephen Price faced Emily again and said, "Miss, I was sorry just now. I'm sorry. Please forgive me."
Emily said quickly: "It's okay, it's okay... no need to say sorry."
Fu Chuanfu said: "Mr. Xia, is it okay? I'll let the crane master unload the goods."
Edgar Austin said: "Mr. Fu, I really don't..."
Fu Chuanfu interrupted Edgar Austin, "I have done everything you asked me to do. My lady never likes people who fail in things. You can't let me go back and fail to pay my job, can you?"
"This..."Edgar Austin didn't know what to do.
Fu Chuanfu followed him out and shouted to the crane master: "Unload the goods!" He was afraid that Edgar Austin would find some excuse to refuse. In that case, he would really not be able to give orders to Veronica Veronica.
The crane unloaded all the goods from the flatbed truck in just a few minutes. The unloaded equipment is placed in the open space in front of the Thunder Horse Studio. They are all brand new and the most advanced equipment at the moment. The total value of several pieces of equipment adds up to almost one million.
Edgar Austin was reluctant to buy these advanced equipment on the Alibaba platform just now, but Veronica Veronica gave them to him like this. For Edgar Austin, one million is definitely a huge sum of money and is quite important, but for someone like Veronica Veronica, one million may be a watch or a set of private orders. Made-to-order clothes, or a sum of pocket money that can be thrown around, nothing more. Edgar Austin helped her solve an assassination crisis, and it was reasonable for her to send Edgar Austin some equipment.
“Mr. Apart from asking Stephen Price to apologize to Edgar Austin and the others, he didn't say a single word to Stephen Price when he left.
Fu Chuanfu is the old butler of the Veronica family. He has served three generations of Veronica family heads. He has been a member of the Veronica family for a long time. Stephen Price is nothing in his eyes, and there is no need to say hello.
"Lola Gellar, do you still want to stay here?"Stephen Price's face no longer held the gentle breath. His face has been disgraced, and now the only way to save his poor face is to take Lola Gellar away.
"I..."Lola Gellar hesitated. She glanced at Edgar Austin secretly from the corner of her eyes, as if she wanted to hear Edgar Austin's plea to stay.
Edgar Austin didn't try to persuade her to stay, but said, "Miss Lola, if you want to stay here, no one can take you away by force."
This sentence was meant for Stephen Price.
If what just happened had not happened, Stephen Price would have dismissed such words, but it was different now. He did not dare to annoy Edgar Austin again until he had figured out the relationship between Edgar Austin and Veronica Veronica . However, he still has ways to force Lola Gellar to submit. He took out his mobile phone and said, "Lola Gellar, I'm going to call uncle now and ask him to advise you."
"I, can't I just go with you?"Lola Gellar tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
A smile appeared on Stephen Price's lips. He reached out to take Lola Gellar's hand, but Lola Gellar avoided him and walked out angrily.
Stephen Price smiled and said, "Goodbye, you three."
Kaiden Barlow spat, "I've never seen such a shameless person like you."
Stephen Price pretended not to hear, turned around and left Lei Ma Studio.
Fu Chuanfu left, Lola Gellar and Stephen Price also left, and the studio suddenly became quiet. Edgar Austin stared blankly at the equipment piled at the door, while Kaiden Barlow and Emily stared at Edgar Austin blankly, as if they were meeting Edgar Austin for the first time.
After being stunned for a long time, Edgar Austin said to himself: "You are so overbearing. How can you force someone to give you a gift?"
"Brother, if you don't want it, give it to me."Kaiden Barlow added, "I'll sell it to get a wife."
Edgar Austin finally came back to his senses and smiled, "Go away, if you hadn't been so talkative, I wouldn't have asked for these equipment at all. It was all because of your talk that I accepted them."
Kaiden Barlow looked very depressed, "Edgar, what on earth is going on? When did you meet the woman from the Veronica Family, why didn't I know about it? What happened to you, that people would give you such an expensive gift? It makes me even more confused. What I can’t understand is that you still don’t want it. Is there anyone as stupid as you?”
Emily also interjected, "Yes, Edgar, why don't you want it? Don't we need these equipments?"
Edgar Austin smiled bitterly and shook his head without explaining. Some things couldn't be explained clearly, because he couldn't tell Kaiden Barlow and Emily how he saw the female killer setting off the bomb, and he couldn't tell Kaiden Barlow and Emily that he did it because he didn't want to be looked down upon by a woman like Veronica Veronica. Decided to refuse the gift. The second reason, in the eyes of normal people, is actually just one word, stupid.
"Speak, what is going on?"Kaiden Barlow urged, he was very curious.
Edgar Austin said: "It's nonsense. I'll tell you later. Now we have to bring in these equipment and install them."
Kaiden Barlow said dissatisfiedly: "If you didn't tell me, I would have guessed that the woman from the Veronica Family borrowed seeds from you, right?"
Edgar Austin kicked him over, "I'll lend you my head and let's go to work!"
"Just work."Kaiden Barlow muttered and walked out.
Emily followed behind him, with a bright red face. As she walked, she muttered to herself, "Edgar's seeds are so expensive, and the women in the city are so willing to give them up."
Edgar Austin, "..."
