Time flows like water!

As time passed, Bai's jewelry company completely became the brightest star in the exhibition hall. Many jewelry merchants or people looking to purchase unique jewelry flocked towards it.

The employees of Bai's jewelry company also became exceptionally busy, either answering questions from those wanting to buy jewelry or maintaining the scene. Even Bai Zhiqing wasn't spared, surrounded by many wealthy people asking her this and that and even inquiring if she would sell the Sun Wukong jade statue.

"This time, this jewelry company from the East is probably going to rise; it's unstoppable."

Seeing Bai's jewelry company's busy scene and looking at the sparse crowd in their own exhibition space, everyone couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration, yet were helpless. They had done all they could, now it was up to fate. The only thing they could be thankful for was being established jewelry companies, and Bai's jewelry company couldn't shake their foundation yet.

In contrast to the busy employees of Bai's jewelry company in the exhibition hall, Lu Tianxing appeared very leisurely, showing no signs of busyness. God knows where he found a little stool, sitting in the corner with a straw in his mouth, sipping a drink, showing no busy demeanor. But the occasional gleam in his eyes told everyone he was keeping an eye on the surroundings.

"Mr. Lu, you're really relaxed. Zhiqing is busy as a bee, and you're just sitting here watching the fun, doesn't seem very appropriate, does it?"

At this moment, a teasing voice reached Lu Tianxing's ears.

Upon hearing this voice, Lu Tianxing immediately turned to where the voice came from, and saw Li Ya in a cheongsam walking over. Her long beautiful legs were hidden in the cheongsam, revealing themselves as she walked, resembling a cat's paw, making one's heart itch.

"Haha, Miss Li Ya, it seems those words should be said to you! I'm just a little employee. These big events are none of my business to participate in. But you, Miss Li Ya, shouldn't you stay in your own exhibition? Coming here doesn't seem a bit derelict of you?"

Lu Tianxing, with a slight smile on his face, looked at Li Ya with appreciation in his eyes.

"Mr. Lu, you're really not a gentleman. A gentleman should stand when talking to a lady." Li Ya smiled as she walked to Lu Tianxing's side.

Lu Tianxing shrugged nonchalantly, smiling: "This might disappoint you, Miss Li Ya. I've never admitted to being a gentleman. Besides, I'm a Huaxia person, don't follow your Western norms. Oh, by the way, although we Huaxia people celebrate Christmas, for us, it's just an occasion to give girls apples or bananas. As for the other holidays, they're just an excuse for a holiday to us, so about being a gentleman, I don't follow that stuff."

Li Ya looked somewhat astonished at the roguish expression on Lu Tianxing's face, a slight blush appearing on her pretty face. She didn't know what Lu Tianxing exactly meant by his interpretation of Christmas.

"Mr. Lu, you are the most peculiar man I've ever met, very mysterious." Li Ya said heavily, looking at Lu Tianxing.

"Mysterious?"

Lu Tianxing looked somewhat surprised upon hearing Li Ya's words, his gaze rotating on Li Ya: "Miss Li Ya, I advise you not to try to understand my mystery, because there's a saying, when a woman starts getting curious about a man, it's when the woman falls for the man. I wouldn't want you, Miss Li Ya, to fall for me."

Hearing this, Li Ya was taken aback: "Why, am I not beautiful?"

"Beautiful, Miss Li Ya, you're very beautiful, a classic Western beauty."

Lu Tianxing exclaimed in admiration: "However, I'm already married, and I'm faithful to my wife."

"Oh? Mr. Lu, then why did I see your eyes wandering over the bottoms of those women in OL uniforms just now?" Li Ya said jokingly, looking at Lu Tianxing.

"Miss Li Ya, that's slander, slandering an honorable person."

Lu Tianxing's face remained unchanged, showing no embarrassment from being caught, solemnly said: "I'm observing the beauty of the world with my eyes. If you have eyes but choose not to see the world's beauty, how are you different from a salted fish?"

"Hehe...."

Li Ya couldn't help but laugh at Lu Tianxing's words. She found Lu Tianxing much more interesting than she previously thought.

Amid the Rockefeller Center's jewelry exhibition, held in high gear, in a conference room of a building near New York Fifth Avenue...

The conference room was large, about the size of a basketball court. In the center was an oval conference table with flowers for decor. The room was luxuriously decorated yet felt oppressive and serious.

Around the round table, many people were seated, each exuding a chilling and bloodthirsty aura. The sinister gleam occasionally flashing in their eyes made it clear these were not people to be trifled with.

The atmosphere in the conference room was particularly heavy, with a faint scent of tobacco in the air. No one spoke; everyone's expressions were grave and stern, not cracking a smile.

At the head of the hall, a young man sat composed, his face equally cold and indifferent. He exuded a faint Light Aura, attracting attention but no one spoke against him due to his youth, as he was Holder Owen, the Church's contemporary Saint Heir.

"Knock knock...."

After an unknown while, Holder, seated at the head, gently knocked on the table, his calm voice echoed in the conference room: "This time, I gathered everyone here because of a known reason: the elimination of the Judge. The Judge, a yellow-skinned Houzi, causing storms in our Western world, is a challenge to our Western authority. This time, we must kill him to show everyone that the Western world is our domain, not a yellow-skinned Houzi's..."
