Chapter 60 - Rainbow Jade (1/2)

Speculate.

Originally, the man only wanted to ridicule the immature uncle and nephew in front of Qu Bai; but he did not expect Song Ye would retaliate. “Little kid, you want to use your yellow sand one to fight with my black one?”

“Mm, that’s right.” Song Ye answered lightly and put on a nonchalant look.

Suddenly, the man laughed and raised his chin as he said, “Okay, since you’re so indignant. I’ll bet with you. Just that, my time is very precious. What should we do if you lose?” He would not waste his time and play with her. An idea popped in his head as he said slowly, “Let’s do this. If you lose, then you’ll compensate me according to the price of your material. What do you think?”

When they heard that, all the adults present knitted their brows slightly. Song Ye was indeed young and immature, but this man was extorting her about the bet.

Qu Bai had a pretty good impression of Song Ye so he did not want to spoil his business with Yu Fu Jewelry. He was just about to open his mouth to cancel this ridiculous bet.

However, Song Ye was faster than him and even harsher. “Okay, but if you lose, then you need to compensate me with the price of the material you bought.”

The man was stunned before he laughed out loud. “Okay, with Master Qu as my witness, when you lose; I hope you won’t cry your eyes out. Anyway, if you don’t have money, your Uncle has.”

This sentence poked Zhao Zhen right in his heart. At first, he wanted to stop the deal; but when he saw the other party’s stuck-up look, his blood started to boil. He smiled back insincerely. “Since Song Ye is my nephew, I will definitely take care of his share. Besides, we’re still unsure of who would win or lose. Don’t be so full of yourself.”

“Hmph, we’ll see.” The man sneered and had a winner’s expression on his face.

Looking at the behavior of both parties, Qu Bai decided to just keep quiet and watch the show. Anyway, onlookers would not be afraid if the thing was blown up. As he was suddenly made the witness, he followed to the event location and became the judge.

On the way, when he saw Song Ye’s composure and nonchalant look, he asked curiously. “You’re really confident. Don’t forget: if you lose, Yu Fu Jewelry has to buy the material and compensate them.”

To a small jewelry shop, one million dollars was not a small amount.

However, Song Ye did not care. “People strive for vindication, and keeping quiet when someone is trampling all over me is not my style. Yu Fu Jewelry can afford to lose this one million.” Besides, before the bet was even made, she already knew that she was going to win. If others wanted to send their money over, why would she not accept it gladly?

Qu Bai was taken aback by her words as he did not expect Song Ye to be so dignified at a young age. In his heart, he was even more impressed with the child.

However, when they entered the event venue and after both parties chose their material, Qu Bai and Zhao Zhen’s eyelids kept on twitching as they finally understood the source of the man’s arrogance.

“Haha, okay, since we’ve already bought the items, let’s start to open it.” After the man paid for the material, he could not wait to use it to slap Song Ye’s face.

At this point, no matter how regretful Zhao Zhen was, he could only carry on with the show with a thick skin. In his heart, he only hoped that the seemingly poor quality stone could produce some decent jade that would save him some face.

When Qu Bai saw that Song Ye was still calm, he found it very interesting and sat on a chair to drink tea while watching the stone master work his magic. In his heart, he could no figure out if Song Ye was really stupid or playing dumb.

At this point, it was past noon; and there were people gradually entering the venue to buy materials. When they saw that someone was opening a big stone and the young master of the Qu family was watching, the news spread like wildfire. In no time, there was a crowd around the area.
