Chapter 865: The Cold-Faced Master Mu
The royal imperial green jade is indeed a rare jadeite.
The jade has a strong glassy luster and looks overall bright, rich, and evenly colored. Its color is like emerald, and its hue is closest to the green in the spectrum. The quality is also very fine.
It’s a pity that its area is not even the size of an adult’s fist.
There was a deep disappointment in An Mingji's eyes, and he sighed in his heart.
Young Master Mu was a little surprised that he couldn't see the disappointment on the two men's faces.
I don't understand why the jade, which has always been regarded as a treasure by the elders in my family, is so despised by them.
Mu Zifan, who was sitting opposite the sofa, asked, "But what's the problem with the jade?"
Gu Jin relaxed his body, leaned back on the sofa, gently touched his forehead with his slender jade fingers, not knowing what to say.
An Mingji closed the exquisite wooden box and told Young Master Mu frankly: "This piece of jade is a little small. Our elders once had a bigger one, but it was destroyed for some reason. We want to find a piece of similar size for her."
There is such an inside story. Mu Zifan suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
The butler then served tea to the guests.
By the way, I brought you news that the head of the Wanqi family is coming.
"Is Uncle Wanqi here? Hurry up and welcome him in."
Mu Zifan stood up and prepared to greet the guests in person.
"I'm here uninvited, Zifan won't be stingy with a cup of tea, right?"
A hearty laugh came from the door.
Wanqi Yanghong, the head of the Wanqi family, strode over with a smile.
Mu Zifan looked up and said with a smile: "Look at what Uncle Wanqi said. It is an honor for our tea to be tasted by you."
Wanqi Yanghong walked in front of everyone and saw An Mingji and Gu Jin sitting on the sofa. The smile on his face faded a lot and his attitude became obviously more respectful: "Mr. An, Ms. Gu."
In front of outsiders, he no longer called Gu Jin "Master Jiu".
An Mingji and Gu Jin nodded slightly to him, and one could tell at a glance that they were in a very depressed mood.
Mu Zifan was surprised by the respectful attitude of the Wanqi family head towards them.
After all, the Wanqi family is one of the four major families in Youcheng. This attitude is really puzzling.
An Mingji and Gu Jin looked at each other. They knew that today's trip was in vain.
Gu Jin stood up first and said to Wanqi Yanghong, "Sorry to bother you today. We have looked at the things and they are not what we need."
Wanqi Yanghong blinked: "What do you mean?"
In this huge secluded city, he knew that only the Mu family owned the imperial green jade.
If what the Mu family had wasn't what they needed, he really didn't know where to look for it.
An Mingji repeated to Patriarch Wanqi what he had said to Mu Zifan before.
Wanqi Yanghong is different from Mu Zifan. He is clear about An Mingji's identity.
When he heard that the other party said that the elderly in his family once had a jade stone bigger than the one in the Mu family, the first person he thought of was Mrs. Darwin, who had retired.
Only Mrs. Darwin has such financial resources.
His heart was shaken, and a hint of anxiety appeared on his face.
"What should I do?" Wanqi Yanghong muttered to himself, and then looked at Mu Zifan who was standing beside him: "Zifan, do you know who else in Youcheng has the Imperial Green Jade?"
Mu Zifan shook his head: "I've never heard of it."
Even if other families have jade, none is bigger than the one their Mu family has.
After hearing this, An Mingji and Gu Jin prepared to leave.
"Sorry for disturbing you today. We'll be leaving first."
"etc!"
Mu Zifan suddenly remembered something and stopped the two of them.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the seemingly cold-faced Young Master Mu.
