Sharon Lindt immediately shook her head. “Let’s not… This is too expensive. I can’t accept it.”“Why not? If you don’t accept it, I’ll be upset,” Xyla Quest said.When Sharon heard this, she shook her head helplessly. “Fine… I’ll pay for this material then…”“No, I’ll do it…” Xyla said.Before Xyla could finish her sentence, Zim Hummers began to speak on stage. “Pretty lady, are you going to sell this piece of jade rock?”His eyes were filled with a look of desire for that piece of material.Before Xyla could answer, everyone in the auction hall surrounded her instantly and began to offer prices—“800 million, sell it to me…”“900 million, sell it to me…”“910 million, sell it to me…”“One billion, sell it to me…”Everyone had a look of desire in their eyes for that piece of original jade rock.Although the prices they offered were very tempting, Xyla still wasn’t convinced.She calmly looked at their faces. “I’m sorry, but I won’t be selling this piece of material no matt

“Xyla… Tell me truthfully. Are you an expert in rock gambling?” No matter how hard Sharon Lindt thought about it, she still felt that Xyla Quest knew a lot about rock gambling and was just keeping it to herself.“I’ve never participated in rock gambling before, but my father occasionally did. Although I can’t say that I know everything about rock gambling, I do know a few things,” Xyla said.Xyla was telling the truth…She didn’t know a lot about this field, but she did occasionally listen to her father while he talked about it.To a certain extent, she was able to remember some of the things her father said.However, without her special vision, and if Xyla only relied on her little knowledge, she wouldn’t have been able to acquire those two pieces of great material from the auction today.After hearing this, Sharon was even more certain that Xyla was just keeping things to herself.In fact, Sharon believed that Xyla was just being humble when she said she only knew a thing or t

Encrustation formed over long periods due to dust, sweat, soil, or moisture. It then became the outer layer of an object.Generally speaking, the older something was, the thicker its encrustation.Therefore, Xyla Quest concluded that this thing was not as simple as it seemed.She immediately fixed her gaze upon the purple clay teapot, and she then activated her X-ray vision.Soon, the dark purple clay teapot began to enlarge continuously before her eyes…After that, her vision pierced the layer of encrustation. She was able to see the purple clay teapot itself.There was a lifelike dragon carved on the teapot. Overall, the workmanship was exquisite. It didn’t seem like it came from the hands of an ordinary person.Xyla then looked carefully at the sign hanging above this stall. “Second-hand antique trading.”For knowledgeable people, second-hand antique trading stalls like this in a night market were known for fooling idiots…Xyla didn’t expect to discover something good like

Xyla Quest smiled. “Of course, I’m serious.”With that, Xyla scanned the stall’s QR code using WeChat and transferred 50,000 to the stall owner…The boss was insanely happy. He tried to suppress his laughter. “I’m telling you now. There’s a rule in the antique business. Once you buy something… You can’t return it. I’m sure you’re aware of that, right?”This lady in front of him looked rather pretty, but why was she an idiot?Why would she pay 50,000 for a lousy teapot?Xyla smiled. “Of course, I know the rule. You’ll have to remember the rule you spoke of too.”Nearby, a few youngsters who were strolling past the stall couldn’t help but start laughing—“Young lady, should I say you’re a fool with a lot of money or a rich person who’s foolish?”“At one glance, I can tell it’s not worth it… You’ve been tricked.”“Yeah. I wouldn’t pay five dollars for this lousy teapot.”The things that Xyla heard were extremely annoying, but Xyla couldn’t care less about them. Instead, she smil

“If I’m not mistaken, that’s a work of Michelangelo. It originally came in a pair. I previously had one of them in my collection…” The old man said.“Michelangelo?” The stall owner was stunned. “Do you mean… The originator of purple clay teapot, Michelangelo? The one from the 15th century?”“Yes…” The old man said.“Oh my god… Then… How much does it worth?” The stall owner’s eyes were filled with shock.“If it’s really a work of Michelangelo, it’d be worth at least ten million,” the old man said.“What? Is this thing worth ten million? I sold it for 50,000. Why was I still foolishly giggling here? Am I stupid?” The stall owner felt remorseful, and he repeatedly stomped his feet in place.“Well… Yes.” The old man turned around and left after saying that.The stall owner was left fuming on his own. “D*mn! I’m really stupid!”Meanwhile, the youngsters were thoroughly shocked. After looking at each other, they all took in a deep breath and started discussing amongst themselves—“T

“Alright.” Xyla Quest smiled.She had just the same thought. Once the encrustation was removed, she would offer this purple clay teapot as a gift to her grandfather-in-law.“Xyla, I simply love you and admire you so much. Tell me, how do you know everything?” Sharon Lindt wasn’t concealing her admiration for Xyla at all.“My father and grandfather both liked collecting antiques. Being with them all the time, it’s hard not to pick up a few things,” Xyla said.“My Xyla really is excellent!” Sharon looked at Xyla as if she was a young female fan of Xyla’s.“Mom, you flatter me,” Xyla said.“Not at all. My daughter-in-law is better than anyone else,” Sharon said.“That’s an exaggeration,” Xyla said.“It isn’t… Not a single bit.” Sharon was smiling the entire time. When she looked at Xyla, there was a glimmer in her eyes. “Oh, right. Has Stan been bullying you recently?”Xyla felt a sense of warmth spread in her heart. She grinned from ear to ear. “No, he’s been very good to me.”

“I heard from Mom that you stole the show at the night market and the original jade rock auction, didn’t you?” Stanley Batton asked gently. Even the tip of his hair was soft and gentle to the touch.“Yeah.” When Xyla Quest spoke about this, her mood became even better. “I made a lot of money today.”“Yeah, I heard all about it,” Stanley said.“Did Mom tell you everything?” Xyla asked.“Yeah. She kept boasting about you in WeChat.” When Stanley mentioned this topic, a vague smile appeared upon his face.“I see.” Xyla’s smile widened gradually.When she and Sharon Lindt were shopping at the night market, Sharon kept reaching for her phone to chat with someone.It turned out Sharon was chatting with Stanley…“She kept reminding me to protect such a good wife like you,” Stanley said.“What else?” Xyla asked.“She even said that if I end up losing you, she will cut off ties with me,” Stanley said.When Xyla heard that, she couldn’t help but chuckle softly…“Do you think I would

“What’s the matter?” Stanley Batton asked.“I clearly told you last night that I was going to the office today,” Xyla Quest said.On the other side of the phone, Stanley was sitting in the conference room at Dragon Group’s headquarters. He was in the main seat.All around him were some of the company’s high-level executives.The meeting hadn’t officially started yet, and people were still coming in one by one.Meanwhile, everyone who passed by Stanley could hear the voice on the phone clearly…Zack Cassidy, who was standing next to Stanley from the start, was especially able to hear the entire call.Zack awkwardly cleared his throat.It turned out that Mr. Batton was this kind of man…When Stanley heard Zack clearing his throat, he instantly frowned a little. Subconsciously, he looked around at the people in the meeting room. After that, he stood up and walked out.Stanley leaned lazily against the wall outside the meeting room. “Alright, I know I was wrong. I’ll be careful n
