After a wave of exclamations, the surrounding men began to inquire where Yu Ting had made her purchase, their expressions eager and excited.
They wanted to buy too.
Ready to try their luck and maybe this good fortune would fall on them too.
What a delightful prospect that would be.
"Ah...I bought it from Mr. Zhou’s stall." Yu Ting didn’t hide anything, and in response to the men’s eager inquiries, she freely shared her information, even briefly describing the general location of the stall.
Upon hearing the name and location of the stall, the men felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over them from head to toe.
Zhou Guorui? That’s a no go.
Who among them, frequenting the gambling stone market, did not know about Zhou Guorui? Not only was he stubborn, but the stuff he sold was also ridiculously expensive.
If no jade came out, they would lose a lot of money for nothing.
Forget about it.
Unfazed by the drastic change in the men’s expressions, Yu Ting moved to the forefront and began to carefully examine the raw stone, finding it fascinating.
With its uneven surface and dark hue, the outer part was nothing compared with the lively green of the exposed interior. The stark contrast between the outside and in made what was inside look even more stunning and eye-catching.
After confirming that jade had been cut, the master cutter carefully switched tools and proceeded with the next step.
To extract the jade intact from within the raw stone.
The following time was extremely slow. The master was ultra-careful for fear that the slightest error might damage the piece of jade.
The entire process took more than an hour to complete.
A piece of jade about the size of a small fist was extracted intact from the raw stone. Both the color and the pattern on the surface were beautiful.
The knowledgeable master gave an approximate valuation.
It was probably an Ice Type Jade, this size is worth about two million Yuan.
It is considered a very desirable type of jade in the field.
After that, Yu Ting instructed her assistant to carefully pack the Ice Type Jade away. She began to move towards the director’s location while making a phone call to Lu Nanchen.
She held the phone against her ear.
The call was connected after a few rings, and a man’s voice was rapidly heard.
"What’s the matter?"
"Did something happen?"
"Not at all, you’re really worried about me these days." Yu Ting replied, slightly surprised.
"Yes, I am very worried."
The man responded quickly without hesitation.
"So, be careful."
The comforting words were then reiterated, a steady male voice uttering reassuring phrases.
Hearing him, Yu Ting quickly agreed before asking: "Does our mother like jade? I just got a pretty nice piece of jade this afternoon. I’m thinking of making two bracelets for her."
As she spoke, she carefully measured the size of the Ice Type Jade, feeling that it would be enough for two sets of bracelets.
One set for her mother-in-law, and another one for her own mother.
"She likes it a lot."
Lu Nanchen answered earnestly.
"What are you doing now?"
"On the way to the airport, I will be with you tonight."
Having been apart for a few days, the bed felt empty.
At this moment, his other hand resting on his thigh, Lu Nanchen thought that he should give her a good hug when they met.
...
Elsewhere.
Zhou Guorui, who had been selling his stones until around four or five in the afternoon, found himself without any customers. He packed up his things to leave, got into an Aston Martin that had been waiting in a nearby alleyway for a while.
A butler from the car took Zhou Guorui’s stones and loaded them onto the car.
No sooner had Zhou Guorui just settled in the car when he heard a frivolous and disrespectful voice beside him.
"Why are you selling stones again?"
