"So, should we cut off the remaining sides?"

Qin Yang smiled and asked.

When the onlookers heard this, they instantly viewed Qin Yang differently. From this sentence, they knew it was his first time stone gambling, he was a complete novice. If it were ordinary low-grade materials like dry green or oily green, cutting them wouldn't lose much money. But if it's glass jadeite, even a little chip off the jade meat could mean losing tens of thousands.

"This is glass jadeite. Cutting the stone would damage the jade. Just rub along the cut edge to reveal it; leave it to me," Ling Xiaoyu rolled her eyes and said.

"I'll help you, Xiaoyu."

Ruan Xinxue had barely spoken when she realized her attire—a red dress—and then smiled sheepishly.

"Sister Xinxue, just watch from the side. Qin Yang, help me splash water, try not to get it on me."

With that, Ling Xiaoyu picked up the handheld stone polisher and turned it on. As the wheel spun, she seriously polished the jadeite raw stone.

Qin Yang held the water scoop, occasionally splashing some water.

Seeing Qin Yang and Ling Xiaoyu polishing the stone without any intention of selling it, the onlookers quieted down.

The process of stone polishing is quite time-consuming and dull, but the crowd showed no signs of leaving, instead, it grew as more gathered. Witnessing the birth of a piece of glass jadeite in person is a story worth boasting.

Ling Xiaoyu's polishing skill was very proficient, yet it still took half an hour to unveil the glass jadeite.

Splash!

Qin Yang scooped a ladle of water and splashed it all over the unveiled jadeite stone.

As water droplets fell, the entire stone appeared as beautiful as a treasure, clearly visible to everyone. Under the sunlight, it reflected a faint blue glassy luster.

"My legs are a bit numb."

Ling Xiaoyu put down the polishing tool, stood up, and gently exhaled.

"Xiaoyu, are you tired?"

Ruan Xinxue handed over a bottle of water and smiled.

"The water content is nice and very beautiful. There's just a slight white cotton spots, but the flaws do not overshadow the beauty," Miao Youfeng said with envy, as he felt a strong desire for this glass jadeite.

Some glass jadeite contains small white cotton spots. However, one shouldn't underrate the price of glass jadeite because of these few spots. In fact, these visible cotton spots highlight the superior characteristics of glass jadeite's quality. Of course, it'd be even better if it had no cotton spots at all.

"Haven't seen someone unveil glass jadeite in ages..."

"Indeed, this raw material looks familiar. It seems like the leftovers from someone else's cut before."

"This young man's luck is incredibly good to unveil glass jadeite from leftover raw materials..."

"..."

By this time, many in the crowd had recognized Bai Desheng as the previous owner of the leftover stones, and their gazes fell on him.

Bai Desheng's face turned slightly red as he stood awkwardly. His intestines were almost regretful enough to turn green—had he known to cut a few more times, even if ending up with scraps, unveiling glass jadeite would've given him such a sense of vanity and satisfaction.

Unfortunately, thinking about it now was futile; this piece of glass jadeite, no matter how good, was already Qin Yang's.

"Not bad, quite a good piece,"

Qin Yang picked up the glass jadeite, a smile appearing on his lips. He could clearly feel the spiritual energy inside it.

"Young fellow, I'll offer twenty million, sell it to me..."

One slightly chubby middle-aged man among the crowd was the first to shout out.

"Twenty million is a bit too low, young fellow, I'm very sincere. I'll offer twenty-three million,"

A short middle-aged man loudly said.

"Twenty-four million."

"..."

Before Qin Yang could speak, the crowd started another round of bidding, which made him chuckle. I haven't even said whether I'm selling or not, have I?

Seeing Qin Yang smiling, Ling Xiaoyu raised her pretty brows. This guy hasn't heard such a sum before, he's probably overjoyed.

"Hey, don't sell it off easily. This piece of glass jadeite is not small; it can make four bracelets, and the remaining materials can make a lot of ring faces, pendants, and other things. Its value should be around thirty million."

Ling Xiaoyu regained her cool demeanor and said.

Qin Yang nodded, knowing this cool chica was reminding him. Immediately, he felt even fonder of her.

"I'll offer thirty-one million!"

Miao Youfeng, standing relatively close, had overheard Ling Xiaoyu, so he gritted his teeth and directly raised the price to thirty-one million.

With so many people competing, coupled with having a stone gambling expert like Ling Xiaoyu around, acquiring this piece of glass jadeite at a slightly profitable price seemed difficult. Hence, he quickly dropped the idea of making a bargain.

Upon hearing this price, the crowd quieted down, many showing hesitance. The price offered by Miao Youfeng was fair—a hundred thousand more than Ling Xiaoyu's estimate—and no one bid further for a while.

Beside them, Bai Desheng also wanted to acquire the stone, but he hesitated, feeling conflicted.

"Ahem, sorry, I'm not selling this glass jadeite," Qin Yang cleared his throat and said.

"Young Master Qin, we can discuss the price. How about thirty-two million? I'm saying it's completely at cost, considering labor and operating expenses,"

Miao Youfeng was also taking a gamble—glass jadeite is rare; acquiring it could attract high-end customers. Sacrificing some profit wasn't a big deal.

"Sorry, Mr. Miao, it's not about the price. I'm not selling this glass jadeite,"

Qin Yang shook his head and refused.

"Is this meant for Mr. Ruan?" Miao Youfeng glanced at Ruan Xinxue standing nearby and asked.

Qin Yang nodded and turned around.

"Here, Sister Ruan, this glass jadeite is for you. However, I need to keep it with me for two days, so please look after it."

Qin Yang smiled as he handed the floating jadeite to Ruan Xinxue.

Ruan Xinxue's eyes lit up—women are always drawn to crystalline objects. She reached out and accepted the jadeite. It was slightly heavy, so she placed it on a nearby table.

"This way, I've paid off half my debt, right?" Qin Yang smiled and said.

"You remember that?"

"Six million, how could I forget? Would you agree?" Qin Yang shook his head and laughed.

"Of course I agree! It's better if you forget. That way, I can enlist you to help the elderly folks in the Capital City,"

Ruan Xinxue smiled, pursing her lips.

Seeing Ruan Xinxue and Qin Yang chatting so happily, Yang Buqun's face immediately darkened.

The Yang Family had always hoped to marry into the Ruan Family, and Ruan Xinxue was Ruan Lao's only grandchild. If he could win her over, his status in the Yang Family would soar, and his father would receive more resources from the Yang family. This unexpected young fellow came out of nowhere and disrupted everything.

Worse, this young man had unknown luck today, unveiling a glass jadeite right in front of Ruan Xinxue, earning her affection by gifting that jadeite to the beauty.
