Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 788: Chapter 784: Regretting Too Late

Hearing Yang Wen’s words, the eagerness in the eyes of the onlookers intensified.

This jadeite seemed to weigh one or two kilograms, and the market price for Ice-type jadeite remained high. A piece weighing one or two kilograms was worth at least five to six million yuan. Adding in the pure gold, the price could easily multiply several times over.

My God, does that mean this piece of Gold-threaded Jadeite could be worth ten to twenty million?!

Yang Wen was absolutely right; although this Gold-threaded Jadeite wasn’t of the glass variety, its transparency was excellent, and the golden threads within were evenly distributed, pure and radiant in their bright green hue. Everything about it was so harmoniously perfect and beyond criticism.

Compared to such a jadeite, what was ten to twenty million worth, really?

”Miss Huo, please name your price, I’m willing to pay a high price for this piece of Gold-threaded Jadeite!”

Yang Wen no longer dared to name a price himself, Huo Sining, as the newcomer in the jade gambling circles who had opened her own Jade Company, was obviously not a rookie unaware of the market value.

What’s more, with Zhong Zifan and Liao Song at the young lady’s side, neither of whom were easy to deal with, Yang Wen knew he didn’t have the capability to take advantage of them.

Huo Sining hadn’t expected Yang Wen to be so persistent. Now that the jadeite had been revealed, he still hadn’t given up.

”President Yang, I’m really sorry, but I don’t intend to sell this piece of jadeite. As you know, I have my own company, and such jadeite is like a unique gem, which I absolutely will not sell. Moreover, this jadeite is too special, I can’t resist its temptation. Even if I were to process it into jewelry, I would only keep it for myself to wear.”

Hearing Huo Sining’s direct refusal, Yang Wen showed a wry smile and said with regret, ”Miss Huo, you don’t need to apologize; it is indeed my own greed. I understand completely. Although I’m an old man, I can’t control my strong desire to possess this piece of jadeite. I think if I were the one who had discovered it, I probably wouldn’t want to sell it for money either.”

Although he said this, Huo Sining could still hear the thick disappointment in Yang Wen’s tone. She smiled and said:

”Mr. Yang, if you are truly interested in this jadeite, I haven’t completely cut off your hope. Right now, I indeed have no plans for processing it, but if one day I decide to start working on this material, given its size, it wouldn’t be a problem to make several pairs of bracelets and pendants. At that time, I might consider selling a set in my company.”

”When that time comes, if Mr. Yang is still fond of this material, I will definitely notify you. How does that sound?”

Yang Wen, having already given up hope, was suddenly ecstatic upon hearing Huo Sining’s words. He nodded hurriedly and thoughtfully pulled out a business card from his pocket to give to Huo Sining: ”Then I hope you won’t forget your promise, Miss Huo. Here’s my business card, please keep it safe!”

Huo Sining took the business card and stored it carefully.

The crowd below watched this unfold, each with their own thoughts.

”If this piece of jadeite were put on the market, it would undoubtedly be incredibly sought after!”

Wang Zhongwei, who had been silent since Huo Sining began the stone gambling, finally couldn’t help speaking up, his face pale and covered in sweat.

Forget about Ice Jade with Gold Threads, even the more common Ice-type green Jadeite never worries about the market. Now that this piece of material is not only Grade A Jade but also has this bold and wealthy color of gold, I’m afraid the rich and powerful will flock to it and bid high prices. It’s a certainty.

Thinking about how he had this Sand Hole material at his home for several years without noticing, and how he sold it for a mere two hundred thousand—practically giving it away—Wang Zhongwei’s heart was bleeding, and he was seething with envy and regret to the point of madness.

If he hadn’t sold this material to Huo Sining, if he had cut it himself, then by now, he would have made a clean profit of twenty million.

And to think he had such a valuable piece of material in his possession for so many years without realizing it, missing out on this fortune. How could Wang Zhongwei not be on the verge of a breakdown?

Alas, in this world, there are no ifs.

Zhong Yuejin’s face was also very ugly. His eyes were fixed on that fake piece of rough, feeling a chill in his limbs.

A piece of Sand Hole rough that no one had high hopes for, this woman with the surname Huo casually made a cut and revealed Ice Jade with Gold Threads. This woman was too abnormal!

Originally, Zhong Yuejin, who was all ready to see Zhong Zifan and Dianshifang become the laughing stock, was now starting to waver in his confidence. He faintly suspected that this time, he and Wang Zhongwei had stepped on a landmine. Huo Sining’s willingness to gamble stones in front of so many people showed she must have been very confident of making a profit.

Now that her first piece of material has already revealed a piece of High Jade worth ten to twenty million, what about the next one, the Black Oosh? Could it be even more valuable?

Thinking of this possibility, Zhong Yuejin felt awful, his eyes turning blood-red as he glared at Zhong Zifan. His bloodshot eyes were filled with a murderous and ruthless light, as if he was ready to battle Zhong Zifan to the death at any moment.

Looking up to see the wonderful expressions on Wang Zhongwei and Zhong Yuejin’s faces, Huo Sining’s smile grew even richer. She suddenly turned her head to look at Zhong Zifan and asked in a low voice, ”I almost forgot to ask you, how old is your uncle now?”

Zhong Zifan was taken aback and looked at Huo Sining puzzledly, ”Forty-eight, not yet fifty, why do you ask?”

Huo Sining smiled, a wicked expression on her face, ”Oh, nothing, I was just worried he might suddenly come down with hypertension, or a heart condition.”

”Huh? Why would you worry about that with him? Misfortune lasts a thousand years, people like him are robust and dread death the most. If he really had such illnesses, he would have been clamoring for treatment long ago.”

Zhong Zifan didn’t know why Huo Sining suddenly switched to this topic and was somewhat baffled as he looked at her, unsure of what she meant.

Huo Sining shrugged, ”It’s good that he’s fine. Just watch, I’m about to gamble on the second piece of rough. I’m worried that with the consecutive shocks, he won’t be able to handle it. If he suddenly drops dead right here, should we call 120 or just do nothing and watch?”

Upon hearing this, Zhong Zifan finally understood. It turned out Huo Sining was taking delight in the misfortunes of Zhong Yuejin and Wang Zhongwei and mocking them. Thinking of the expressions on their faces after the reveal of the Gold-threaded Jadeite, Zhong Zifan also felt a rush of satisfaction and couldn’t help but squint his eyes and smile, saying:

”Call 120? Even if they are truly upset, it’s their own fault! People like them, they need a harsh lesson. They really think the Zhong family can be bullied and manipulated as they please!”
