The Amazing son in law Chapter 6154

Charlie pondered aloud, “Dad, after the jade pot and spring vase were damaged, I used egg white to fix them. I recall that it didn’t appear to be oiled, and the surface wasn’t particularly smooth because it dated back to the Tang Dynasty. Being an ancient artifact, its glaze is quite rough and has a frosted texture when held. Given its strong damping quality, how could it possibly slip from my hand?”

Jacob hesitated on the other end of the line, struggling to find a suitable explanation.

Charlie reassured him, saying, “Dad, it’s all been resolved now. You don’t need to carry any psychological burden. We can leave our conversation at that. I’m just curious—could you share what actually happened back then?”

Jacob reflected, thinking, “Charlie is right. Even though I caused quite a mess and ended up getting slapped, Charlie effectively handled the situation. The jade pot and spring vase he repaired were restored, and even Jasmine Moore praised them, saying their value had significantly increased. I shouldn’t feel guilty about this.”

With that thought, he sighed and replied, “Good son-in-law, it’s not that I don’t want to share the truth with you. I was just worried you wouldn’t believe me, and you might think I’m making things up.”

Upon hearing this, Charlie sensed there was more to the story. He quickly interjected, “Oh, Dad, we’re just having a chat! Even if you say the bottle jumped out of your hand, I’ll believe you.”

“I can’t believe it…” Jacob exclaimed, slapping his thigh on the other end of the phone. “I told you, Charlie, don’t take my word for it! The situation was so different from what you described. That silly bottle seemed like someone had installed a vibrating motor inside it. The moment I picked it up, it started vibrating in my hand. Just that one jolt made my hands go numb, and I lost my grip, causing it to fall!”

Continuing, Jacob added, “I told Zhou Liangyun at the time that something was wrong with the bottle, like it was having a fit, but he accused me of trying to cause trouble and thought I was just making up excuses. I felt completely helpless and wanted to escape and ask for your help.”

As soon as he finished, Jacob quickly defended himself, saying, “Good son-in-law, please don’t misunderstand my intentions. I didn’t want you to take the blame for me. I just wanted to find a way out for myself and thought about how to get you off the hook. I never expected you to be so capable and to have repaired the jade pot and spring vase!”

Charlie didn’t take his explanation too seriously; instead, he asked with curiosity, “Dad, you mentioned that the jade pot and spring vase vibrated suddenly. What exactly happened? Did Zhou Liangyun personally hand them to you?”

“No,” Jacob replied. “What actually happened was that Zhou opened the packaging box containing the Yu Hu Chun bottle himself and handed me a pair of white gloves, asking me to take it out and test it. Without thinking too much, I reached for it. Just as I was about to take a photo to share on WeChat Moments, it unexpectedly shook in my hand and fell.”

As he recounted the event, Jacob cursed under his breath, saying, “Looking back, I can’t shake the feeling that this was likely a trap set by that Zhou guy. Perhaps the bottle vibrating was his doing, too.”

Charlie, momentarily suppressing his surprise, smiled and responded, “Alright, Dad, it’s been a while now, and we’ve lost nothing substantial. So don’t dwell on it too much.”

He then added, “By the way, Dad, I have something else I need to attend to, so I’ll let you go for now.”
