59: Chapter 59 She Was Never a Good Person to Begin With
59 -59 She Was Never a Good Person to Begin With
The rivalry between the second and third branches of the Ou family is widely known, but to go to such lengths, aren’t they afraid of failing miserably, with Ou Mucen’s means, leaving them with nothing but ashes?
When that person left, even their legs were trembling.
Ye Ning stood there for a while, then suddenly, in her eyes, a ghostly and sinister smile spread.
Was she courting death?
That was perfect, she was worried about not having an opportunity to make her move.
This way, wasn’t she being handed just what she needed?
She smiled, with a cryptic grin that no one could understand, and turned back to where she had just come from.
Ye Ning had not intended to be a good person since she returned; her purpose here was for revenge.
Since the opportunity had come, she would definitely seize it.
As for others, they had no relation to her whatsoever.
Having returned to the auction, the bidding had already started, so she bent over and went to the table where the man was sitting in the third row, “Third Master, I apologize, I just went to the restroom.”
She was at least fifteen minutes late, of course, she needed an explanation—this person had warned her before that she must not be late again, or she would no longer be an employee of the Ou family.
Fortunately, after she explained, the man just turned his head and glared at her unhappily.
Afterward, he looked impassively back to the front: “I heard that Original Jade Stone was auctioned at ‘Skyline’ before?”
Ye Ning’s fingers gripping the list on the table immediately tensed…
Of course, there was Original Jade Stone; it came from the Huo Family, the current supplier for Dragon-Phoenix Jewelry.
He really had come here to investigate, to confirm whether the Huo Family was truly the supplier for Longfeng?
Ye Ning pressed her lips together, holding the paper for a long time before finally nodding lightly: “Yes, his surname is Huo, but he hasn’t been seen for many years.
Since he auctioned the last piece of Original Jade Stone here nine years ago, he hasn’t come back.
No one knows what he’s been up to.”
“Yes, nine years ago.
I was actually very young back then, and I only know about it from what my master said.
I’m not very clear on the specifics,” said Ye Ning, deliberately smiling as she spoke, her bright and clear eyes seemingly the epitome of innocence.
Nine years ago, she was 14, the same year she was adopted by the second branch of the Ou family.
Who would have thought that time could pass in the blink of an eye…nine years had already gone by…
At last, Ou Mucen finally turned to look at her, his gaze indifferent but sharp and cold within—like twin beams that could penetrate deep into her heart, just one glance was enough to make one’s insides tremble.
Ye Ning’s pupils contracted for a moment, but in the end, she lowered her gaze: “Did Third Master come here in search of Original Jade Stone?
There hasn’t been an auction for a long time.
If you like, I could ask my master to introduce a few suppliers to you.”
He knows a few jade merchants, and if you’d like, he could invite them to bring some samples for you to look at.”
Once again, silence fell.
Following her words, the man’s expression of impatience had become very obvious, as if everything she said was pointless.
Indeed, it was pointless.
In A City, which jade stone supplier could possibly have more authentic or superior stock than the Huo Family’s?
