"Exactly! You're just being sour grapes, you're jealous!"

"Luck is also a kind of strength! This Miss Ellie is clearly not simple."

The man was rebuffed and was about to say something when he heard an excited, slightly distorted voice shout, "Sold! Sold! Sold again!"

"My God! This piece of purple jade! This is the first time I've ever seen such a pure and rich purple jade. Just looking at it, it exudes an aura of nobility!"

"Incredible! Three stones, three high-quality stones! A 100% chance of winning, and a huge win at that! I doubt anyone in this place can outshine Miss Ellie today."

"As expected of an expert, you can tell the quality with just one look!" Hua Sichen looked at the purple stone and couldn't help but glance at Ye Weiwei. She found that Ye Weiwei was also looking at the stone, her eyes full of anticipation and surprise. Then she sighed in disappointment.

It seems this stone won't be sold either.

Sure enough, several jewelry merchants on the scene couldn't help but be envious and asked Ye Weiwei if she would sell, offering very high prices, but Ye Weiwei politely declined them all.

Hua Sichen gave up and turned around to pick out more than a dozen pieces of material in one go, showing an attitude of not giving up until she cut out a good piece.

The two pieces of jade were quickly cut open, one being imperial green and the other high-grade icy purple, both top-tier quality.

Ye Weiwei was in a very good mood.

Zuo Chenglong, on the other hand, didn't look so good. Although he still had a fake smile, it was very stiff, and his eyes were flashing with greed as he looked at Ye Weiwei.

He valued not only the materials Ye Weiwei possessed, but also her abilities.

If they could have a professional like Ye Weiwei to help them identify and analyze raw stones every time they went to buy them, wouldn't that be wonderful...?

Just thinking about it makes Zuo Chenglong's blood boil.

He was once again glad that he hadn't let Aisha come along today and provoke Ellie. Compared to Ellie, Aisha was simply a piece of trash!

Ye Weiwei had no idea that Zuo Chenglong had actually set his sights on her, but even if she did, she wouldn't care.

She's come here so ostentatiously to gamble on stones today; she's just trying to fish for trouble. She's not afraid of the Green Dragon Gang having any designs on her.

However, under the watchful eyes of the public, the show still had to be put on.

"Young Master Yu, can you explain this to Aunt Yu now?"

Qin Xiao looked at Ye Weiwei with such tenderness it could melt your heart. He wrapped his arms around Ye Weiwei's waist and nodded possessively.

Ye Weiwei looked at Qin Xiao shyly, "Then let's go back quickly! I can't wait to take these three stones back to show my aunt."

Qin Xiao naturally agreed, "I'll do whatever you say."

After saying that, the two prepared to leave.

Zuo Chenglong was not about to let them go so easily.

He quickly stepped forward to stop Qin Xiao and Ye Weiwei, and as soon as he moved, his henchmen also stepped forward.

Qin Xiao frowned and looked coldly at Zuo Chenglong, saying, "Young Master Zuo, what do you mean by this?"

Ye Weiwei was also very dissatisfied: "Young Master Zuo, you just said that you do business here honestly and fairly, young and old. What, now that I've offered you something good, are you not planning to let us leave?"

Zuo Chenglong smiled and said, "Young Master Yu, Miss Ellie, you've misunderstood me! It's still early, and we've prepared a banquet today, as well as a few games and entertainment that we'd like to invite you to participate in. We hope you'll do us the honor of joining us."

Qin Xiao sneered: "What can we do if we don't give them the honor?"

Zuo Chenglong's smile turned cold: "Young Master Yu, we're all friends, we see each other all the time. You just managed to get some good stuff in my place, and you won't even give me this much face? Aren't you showing a lot of disrespect to the Green Dragon Gang?"

Qin Xiao scoffed: "Is it that I don't take your Green Dragon Gang seriously, or that your Green Dragon Gang doesn't take my Yu family seriously? What, Young Master Zuo, are you going to oppose our Yu family and resort to force?"

Zuo Chenglong's face darkened further, annoyed that Yu Chengwu was disrespecting him.

But thinking of the three stones Ye Weiwei had just unearthed, especially the imperial green one, he was determined to find a way to keep that piece of material today.

With that material, they can recoup a large portion of the cost of the goods that went missing from the warehouses last night.

"Young Master Yu is too kind. Just stay and support me out of respect for Mr. Smith, how about it?"

Hearing Zuo Chenglong threaten them with Smith, Ye Weiwei suddenly smiled broadly. She looked at Zuo Chenglong with a half-smile and said, "Young Master Zuo, we originally planned to come and support you and leave, but since you have invited us so warmly, it would be a bit unreasonable for us not to stay."

Upon hearing Ye Weiwei's agreement, Zuo Chenglong immediately beamed with joy: "Miss Ellie is indeed sensible."

Ye Weiwei laughed and said, "Don't be so quick to praise us. Just make sure Young Master Zuo doesn't regret letting us stay later. To be honest, I've never been afraid of anyone when it comes to gambling on stones."

Zuo Chenglong was pleased rather than angry upon hearing Ye Weiwei's words, his eyes filled with determination as he said, "It's a good opportunity for us to see what Miss Ellie is capable of."

Ye Weiwei readily agreed: "Okay! Then we'll stay!"

Qin Xiao looked coldly at Zuo Chenglong: "Young Master Zuo, I advise you to know when to stop and not go too far!"

Zuo Chenglong laughed loudly: "We gangsters all live on the edge, unlike Young Master Yu."

Qin Xiao snorted coldly.

Hua Sichen cut open more than a dozen stones in a row, but all of them turned out to be junk; not a single one was worth looking at.

He was extremely helpless.

Finally, they approached Ye Weiwei.

"Miss Ellie, could you please take a look at my products? According to industry practice, I'll give you a 10% commission."

Ye Weiwei readily agreed.

Since Zuo Chenglong is so shameless, she might as well drag this second young master of the Hua family down with her.

She wanted to see just how far Zuo Chenglong could go, and whether he dared to push things to the limit.

So, with Ye Weiwei's discerning guidance, she helped Hua Sichen select three pieces of fabric.

Hua Sichen happily paid the money and then went to find someone to cut the stone.

When people saw that Hua Sichen had asked Ye Weiwei to help her choose three pieces of jade, they all gathered around to watch Hua Sichen cut the stones.

Ye Weiwei, being a good Samaritan to the end, also stood by and told the stone-cutting master how to make the cuts.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the three stones were quickly cut out.

One of the red jade pieces was similar in quality to the one Ye Weiwei cut out, only slightly smaller, but still enough to make a set of jewelry.

Hua Sichen was overjoyed that his wish had come true; his mother's birthday gift was now secured. In his delight, the Second Young Master Hua wrote a check for 200,000 yuan for this piece of material alone.

The remaining two pieces were also quite good. Although they weren't as good as the two pieces Ye Weiwei cut out, their quality and color were still top-notch, and they were also a big winner.
