Chapter 666: Overwhelming

“Oh gosh…” The craftsman exclaimed and trembled in excitement. He looked at the stone he had cut open in astonishment. All he could see was a piece of dark green. It was thick, mellow, crystal clear, and dazzling.

The rare imperial green jade.

The entire piece was imperial green jade.

The craftsman went closer and took out his magnifying glass. “Not a single crack!”

Not only was it imperial green, but there were also no impurities, nor were there cracks. She had simply hit the jackpot!

Shen Qianshu’s uneasiness was washed away.

She felt really indignant to have lost to Lu Mengxi in front of so many audiences across the nation. She had only made one bet, and she did not expect herself to have won it. Back then, Master was right. Due to the weather, some stones have formed thick layers of sediment. No tools could detect through that.

Then, she was learning about it. Butler Luther took a stone for Ye Ling to play with. That rock was very similar to the current one.

Ye Ling did not even think much about it back then.

“This clearly looks like worthless crap. Get rid of it.”

Shen Qianshu was young, and she had great interest in jewelry. Ye Ling could not be bothered to even look at it. She studied it very clearly, and with her knowledge, she verified that this was indeed just a rock.

“Master, shall we cut it open and take a look?”

“There’s nothing much to see. It’s just a worthless piece of stone.” Ye Ling responded.

“Just take a look,” Qianshu said persuasively.

Ye Ling remained silent for a moment and cut the rock from the middle without any thought just so he could please Qianshu’s request.

Upon cutting it open, it blinded them with its dazzling nature.

It was an imperial green jade.

The surface was very thick, but they still got an imperial jade that was palm-sized.

It was really thick and mellow with no impurities. It was worth a lot.

Ye Ling rarely made wrong judgments. He found it unbelievable. The two of them studied the water stone for a few days, and Ye Ling concluded. “Those that look ugly on the outside are indeed beautiful on the inside.”

Shen Qianshu was speechless.

In the first round, she had already noticed that this big stone was similar to the water stone they had studied years before. There were many similar places, such as the surface texture, the structure, and the fineness of the sand, but she did not dare to take the risk, so she chose another stone.

She thought, This was the time to take a big risk.

Lu Mengxi would never have thought that she would pick a rock like that.

Since it was the finals, if she lost, then so be it. If she won, it would surprise many.

“Damn, imperial green jade. Shen Qianshu was right!”

“She must have been mistaken. How could it be imperial green jade?”

“She must have seen wrong. This is clearly an ordinary rock.”

“Tsk tsk. You just won’t admit that our little angel is multi-talented, huh? Why do you have to insist that she had seen wrong? Even if so, she is still a winner at life.”

“What a beautiful imperial green that is. Little angel has such amazing eyes. Why didn’t my mother gift me with such eyes? If she had done so, I would have reached the peak of my life.”

Shen Qianshu touched the imperial green softly. How beautiful!

The water stone was of better quality than the one from years before.

This stone had been under the weather for an even longer time.

It was definitely an old jade.

Lu Mengxi’s face turned pale. Just from this cut, she knew that she had lost. She knew she was going to be badly defeated.

Shen Qianshu had won with such a huge piece of imperial green jade.

This is impossible!

“No way, Shen Qianshu. You’re a cheater!” Lu Mengxi was puzzled and mad. She had actually lost to Shen Qianshu in front of everyone. This was something she could not accept.

“Lu Mengxi, if you’re ready to bet, you should be ready to lose.” Shen Qianshu smiled at her. “You aren’t a three-year-old. Be mature. Admit it. I, Shen Qianshu, am better than you in every aspect!”

Even if this was a luck thing, skills played a part as well!
