317 Can’t Shoot

She had a proper smile on her face that no one could find fault with.

Gu Man only shook her head and did not argue with her. They would know if it was true or not after opening the stone.

Because of the Fu Lu Shou, the starting price of the jade became shockingly high. It also dissuaded many people who were tempted but did not have any spare money.

Compared to the other private rooms on the second floor, Gu Man’s private room was too quiet. There was almost no sound of bidding.

Xiang Yin wanted to bid for the jade, but seeing that Gu Man had lost interest, he knew that this Fu Lu Shou jade was probably not worth this price at all, so he gave up on the idea of auctioning it.

Seeing that he was not auctioning, Gu Man asked curiously, “Aren’t you going to bid? This is Fu Lu Shou.”

“Didn’t you say there was only one piece of jade?”

“You trust me so much? Aren’t you afraid that I’m seeing things? The price isn’t high. If there’s jade inside, you’ll miss it.”

As Gu Man spoke, she looked at the woman behind her meaningfully. The woman met Gu Man’s gaze and only smiled slightly, but the disdain in her eyes was obvious.

“It’s just a piece of jade. Besides, I believe you.”

Gu Man only chuckled and did not say anything else. She turned to look at the stage.

In the other private room, Cui Hong was clearly a little anxious. “Dad, why don’t you let me bid for it? This is a rare blessing.”

Old Master Cui did not answer Cui Hong’s question. Instead, he tilted his head and looked at the private room next door. Old Master Cui looked at Cui Lao’s gaze and misunderstood him.

“Dad, even if you want to give the jade to Miss Gu, you have to let Miss Gu bid for it. There’s been no movement from next door for a long time. I’m afraid she’s not interested in this Fu Lu Shou. This is a rare jade. Dad, why are you stopping me?”

It was obvious that Cui Hong was really anxious. His tone was anxious, but he did not dare to resist Old Master Cui’s dignity.

“Does our family lack this piece of Fu Lu Shou?”

Old Master Cui looked at Cui Hong unhappily. How could such an irritable person be magnanimous?

At first, when he saw Fu Lu Shou, Old Master Cui was especially excited and followed suit twice. However, he acutely sensed that there was no movement next door. Thinking of what had happened before, he was hesitant to bid for Fu Lu Shou.

He was afraid that there would only be a slice of jade coming out of the stone on the stage, so he stopped Cui Hong.

“We don’t even know what’s under the rock. Why are you in such a hurry to give money to someone?”

Cui Hong retorted without thinking, “Dad, there’s already jade. What’s there to hesitate about? This is a rare blessing. There won’t be a problem.”

Cui Hong still wanted to persuade Old Master Cui, but Old Master Cui’s attitude was especially firm. No matter what he said, he did not move. In the end, he even closed his eyes like a scoundrel. No matter how Cui Hong persuaded him, he looked like he did not care about anything else.

“Anyway, anyone can bid for it, except you.”

In the end, Old Master Cui could not stand Cui Hong’s nagging and gave a death order.

Seeing that Old Master Cui was already angry, Cui Hong’s Adam’s apple bobbed twice. In the end, he fell silent and could only watch helplessly as others bid for the Fu Lu Shou on the stage.

The manager knocked the hammer happily. He had expected that it would be sold for such a high price, but it was indeed higher than he had guessed.

He looked at the private room on the second floor that had bought the Fu Lu Shou. The old man’s face was filled with obvious joy. It was the Zhou Family of the four great families.

Only the three big families were present. The other two big families did not bid for the Fu Lu Shou so this jade naturally fell into the hands of the Zhou Family.

Among the four great families, the Zhou Family was at the bottom. Now, they actually won the Fu Lu Shou in front of Old Master Cui. He felt even more proud and couldn’t help but mock, “Old Master Cui did you deliberately not bid for the jade because you want me to have the Fu Lu Shou? Thank you, Old Master Cui.”

His voice was neither loud nor soft, just enough for Old Master Cui next door to hear. Hearing his despicable voice, Old Master Cui snorted and did not respond.

When Cui Hong heard Elder Zhou’s words, he felt ashamed and angry. Their Cui family clearly had a chance to bid for Fu Lu Shou, but Old Master Cui insisted on stopping him.
