Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As the cutting machine stopped, everyone fell into silence.
The first to make a sound was Mo Xue. She screamed in disbelief, “How is this possible! How could she have chosen something with such a good color?!”
The completely cut stone emitted a green light under the light, like a clear spring, a calm lake.
It was very green and watery. Even people who didn’t know jade could tell how good the quality of this material was.
The staff were very professional. The green patch was not cut off at all. They methodically dealt with the remaining surfaces. A complete jade stone appeared in front of everyone. It was an irregular square that was about the size of a basketball.
The entire jade was emerald green. Mo Yu was also shocked. She looked at the jade and could not think of any words to describe it.
Gu Lian was also stunned. He did not expect to open such a piece of jade.
Logically speaking, jade was very valuable when it reached the ice-type. Whether it was white jade or purple jade, many people would buy them at a high price, let alone this pure imperial jade.
Gu Lian quickly calculated in his mind. If this piece of jade started circulating, it could be sold for at least 80 million yuan. It would be even more valuable if it was made into jewelry.
But now, it appeared in front of him just like that. Gu Lian was a little stunned and subconsciously touched the jade.
At this moment, everyone had just woken up from a dream and began to congratulate Gu Lian and Mo Yu.
“Miss Mo Yu’s luck is really too good.”
“Congratulations, congratulations on obtaining such a jade raw material.”
“As expected of a match made in heaven with President Gu. Both of you are very lucky.”
“It’s not just luck. If she didn’t have good taste, she wouldn’t have been able to choose such a material. Miss Mo, are you willing to help me choose a piece?”
There were many similar compliments. Mo Yu was still a little stunned and could not react at all. Fortunately, Gu Lian usually looked like he was on the verge of death. Now, Mo Yu’s state was not out of place.
On the other hand, Mo Xue who was at the side suddenly rushed towards ‘Mo Yu’ and pushed her fiercely, “That’s clearly my stone! How did you choose it?”
Mo Xue’s sudden outburst stunned everyone. In the end, it was someone who wanted to please the Gu family who timidly looked at ‘Gu Lian’, who was sitting on the chair and did not speak. He said, “Miss Mo Xue, are you mistaken? You were clearly referring to another stone just now. Everyone saw it. Besides, stone gambling is all about striking first to gain the upper hand. President Gu has already paid for this stone, and it was personally chosen by Miss Mo Yu. How can you say that it’s yours?”
With the first person speaking, there would naturally be a second and third.
Amidst the commotion, Mo Yu finally recovered from her shock. She coughed lightly and said, “Miss Mo Xue, if the first twenty years of the Mo Family and the Shen Family taught you to snatch other people’s things and slander without any foundation, I don’t mind educating you on their behalf about what the true etiquette of a daughter of a wealthy family is.”
When Mo Yu began to speak, the entire venue fell silent.
Many people who were originally not interested in stone gambling also came over to watch. After knowing the cause and effect, they sized Mo Xue up with disdain and pity. Some even whispered that she had suffered too much and had mental problems.
Mo Xue was thin-skinned after all. She could not stand the crowd’s pointing fingers and discussions. She turned around and left in embarrassment.
However, the crowd’s discussion did not stop. Other than criticizing Mo Xue, they were mostly praising and discussing this top-grade jade stone.
Mo Yu sat up straight and decided to use Gu Lian’s body to do something. After all, there were many people now. Let everyone be witnesses so that Gu Lian would not turn hostile and take this jade stone away.
Mo Yu imitated the look of a domineering CEO in the television dramas she had watched these two days. She tilted her head slightly and smiled at Gu Lian. “Do you like it, Xiao Yu? Which other stone is fated with you? I’ll buy them all..”
