Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

Chapter 400: In the Limelight (2)

When the master cutter saw the black stone, he frowned and felt that it didn’t look like a raw jade stone, but more like an ordinary stone. The master thought that the chance it would show green was very low, let alone fetch a high price. He couldn’t help but persuade her. “Why don’t you change to another piece, and I’ll open that for you?”

As soon as the master finished speaking, Yang Zhaoning, who was still feeling pained and had an unsightly expression, immediately had a gloating look on her face. With one glance, she recognized that this was the stone she had casually thrown at the woman. She didn’t expect this woman to seriously hold onto this black, ordinary stone.

Who knew how this ordinary stone had gotten into the high-grade section, but it wasn’t cheap. Yang Zhaoning, who thought that she had hoodwinked Chi Shuyan, was very happy.

Quite a few experts on the side saw this raw black stone and directly said, “I don’t think this is raw jade stone at all. It looks more like an ordinary stone. Did someone in the shop mix in an ordinary rock when the stones were brought over from the mines?

“Young lady, I advise you to take advantage of the fact that you haven’t opened the stone yet, and switch to another one. This really isn’t a raw jade stone at all!”

“That’s right, young lady, hurry and exchange it with the shopkeeper for another piece!”

The shopkeeper was very embarrassed and said that the money had been paid and the stone couldn’t be replaced.

After the shop confirmed that the stone couldn’t be switched out, Yang Zhaoning gloated and sneered. “Miss Chi, if I’m not mistaken, this should be an ordinary stone, not a raw jade stone. I especially took a few looks at it just now. I wasn’t sure before, but I’m now certain that it is indeed an ordinary stone; it’s useless to get the master cutter to open it. I still advise you not to waste your time. It’s a waste of a lot of money, but I still think this stone looks okay. You can still take it back to admire it yourself.”

Yang Zhaoning’s tone sounded friendly on the surface, as if her words were for Chi Shuyan’s own good, but they were actually mocking and gloating.

The faces of Yu Jinzhou, Lu Yunfeng, and the others changed when they heard this, and they whispered, “Sister-in-law, did this woman set you up?”

Although Lu Yunfeng had never discovered jade, he was quite familiar with stone gambling. At that moment, he also looked at the raw stone which Haozi’s sister-in-law handed over. No matter how he looked at it, it didn’t look like a raw jade stone. His face was very unsightly as he whispered, “Sister-in-law, I’m afraid this really isn’t a raw jade stone!”

Qi Hao, Wang Xuewen, and Lu Chengfu still had faith in Lu Yunfeng, and their faces turned very ugly when they heard his words.

Yang Zhaoning also heard Lu Yunfeng’s words and it put her in a better mood. She couldn’t wait for the master cutter to open the stone right away and give this woman a ruthless slap in the face.

Wang Xuewen and Qi Hao rolled up their sleeves and looked like they were going to beat the woman up.

Chi Shuyan grabbed both of them.

At that moment, Zhang Feng was still feeling tender-hearted toward Chi Shuyan as a woman. He smiled and said, “Miss Chi, this indeed isn’t a raw jade stone, but an ordinary stone. Of course, if Miss Chi wants to understand stone gambling, we can get along later. I have some experience in stone gambling!”

Chi Shuyan directly ignored the man who was hitting on her.

Qi Hao gritted his teeth as he stared at this malicious duo not far away, and said hatefully, “Sister-in-law, it’s fine. It’s just a few million, right? You got so much jade just now. We can afford it. Even if we really can’t afford it, my brother will definitely be able to afford it! What my brother has most is money.”

Lu Chengfu and the other boys on the side immediately echoed him. Indeed, the one thing the Qi family didn’t lack was money.

Chi Shuyan was amused by Qi Hao’s “consolation,” but she didn’t reveal anything. Thinking of the powerful fluctuations from this raw stone just now, she couldn’t wait to see what good stuff was hidden in it.

Chi Shuyan ignored the woman and said to the master, “Open it!”
