Just as Ye Feng, filled with joy, respectfully accepted Uncle's gift.
Lukash jumped out, looking at his uncle in confusion.
"Didn't you say this Star Chart was incredibly precious? Wasn't that why Father gave it to me as a birthday present? How come there's another one now?"
Lukash's question left Uncle feeling rather awkward.
Ye Feng could see it too. He feared Lukash's father did not value Lukash much, which was why he had fooled him into believing this was an incredibly precious gift.
Clearly, Uncle knew this as well, which was why he looked so awkward.
But Uncle had weathered plenty of storms. How could he let Lukash stump him? He immediately explained:
"The family spent countless resources and hundreds of years to finally finish drawing this Star Chart. Ordinary families couldn't possibly possess such a treasure. That was why the Clan Leader bestowed it upon you.
"But this Star Chart is also very useful to the family, so some members who have made outstanding contributions to the family may receive the same Star Chart. Take me, for example. After everything I've done for the family, the Clan Leader only rewarded me with a single Star Chart. So, Lukash, you must understand what this Star Chart represents."
Uncle's explanation left Lukash utterly spellbound and almost convinced Ye Feng as well.
Lukash was so moved that he shed tears of gratitude, looking determined to be a dutiful son to his father from then on.
Ye Feng found it rather amusing. He had never imagined that Lukash had grown up being fooled like this.
But Ye Feng could not laugh now. He could only pretend he saw nothing, keeping his eyes lowered as though none of this concerned him.
Uncle also knew there were many outsiders present, so he said no
