Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 1313
“This looks like a genuine antique from the first glance. Young lady, you’ve got it wrong this time…”“Yeah… As an expert in this field, I can tell right away that this is genuine…”“This jade pendant looks exactly like something from the sixteenth century… Stop making nonsense up.”“I don’t know how this person managed to get lucky twice by profiting from bargain antiques… Was it all based on luck?”The people who spoke all looked at Xyla Quest with varying degrees of contempt.Xyla felt extremely annoyed by what she saw and heard.“You guys… Could it be a fake antique? I think Xyla is pretty amazing…”“I suspect that it is fake too…”Soon, other different voices could be heard.Various voices overlapped each other and repeatedly resonated in her eardrums. It was making Xyla’s head buzz.Right then, the bald man felt provoked.He looked at Xavier York. “How about this, Mr. York… You’ll get on stage to verify if this is genuine or fake. It’ll stop those people from saying th

The bald man couldn’t resist taking in a breath of cold air. He kept shaking his head. “How can this be? This is our family’s heirloom. You’re lying to me.”“I didn’t lie to you…” Xavier York said.The bald man looked thoroughly dumbfounded. “You… You should go up there and take a closer look… You haven’t taken a closer look. You really shouldn’t pass judgment so casually… ”The bald man was feeling a great sense of remorse.If he had known this would happen, he would have chosen to keep his mouth shut!In that case, he would’ve still made a handsome profit!Now, it had all gone down the drain.The bald man had practically picked up a rock and dropped it on his feet.Soon, the entire hall was filled with chatter.“This is embarrassing… It turns out that Xyla was right…”“I can’t believe that those of us who have been in the antique industry for decades lost to a young girl…”“Thank goodness I didn’t bid for it… Otherwise, I would’ve lost a lot of money!”When Xyla Quest hea

“But… This is my family’s heirloom… It’s been passed down for generations…” The bald man said.He really was going to cry!“I can only say that your ancestors bought a fake antique… But they simply didn’t know it… This fake antique was made to look genuine. Even an expert would find it difficult to see through its flaws…“That’s why your ancestors can’t be blamed either…” Xavier York said.At this moment, Xavier’s admiration toward Xyla Quest increased yet again…Although Xyla was young, she was even better than those who have worked in the antique industry for decades that she identified this jade pendant as a fake.She had a lot going for her!The bald man didn’t say anything. Instead, he kept nodding…“About that, who made a promise earlier? Didn’t he say he’d do something if this were a fake piece?”“Oh, dear. I think he has to do a handstand here or something, doesn’t he? Where is it better to do it? I think he should do it on stage. Isn’t that a good idea?”“Why are you

Xyla Quest’s response made everyone waiting to watch a show very disappointed…Although they were disappointed, they still respected Xyla from the bottom of their hearts for how forgiving she was.Meanwhile, the bald man was utterly stunned.He never would’ve thought that Xyla might let him off the hook just like this.After all, he was truly too harsh with her.He recalled the things he did. They were practically the most foolish things he’d ever done.“Ms. Quest, are you being serious?” the bald man asked.Xyla nodded calmly.When the bald man saw this, he instantly ran down the stage and kneeled in front of Xyla with his palms clasped together. “Ms. Quest, thank you so much… You really are an angel!” he said.With him kneeling, Xyla’s resentment toward him completely vanished.Xyla then stood up and bent over to help him up. “It’s nothing. After all, I’m not an unforgiving person…”The bald man was close to tears from feeling grateful. “Ms. Quest, you really are a nice pe

The second auction item was taken out.The brief interlude had come to an end.Everything got back on track.In the time that followed, several fake items were displayed…In fact, it could be seen from a single glance that these were fake items. Xyla Quest wasn’t interested at all…The others were also not very excited.Toward the end of the auction, the beautiful auctioneer smiled as she started saying, “Next up, I’d like to present to you the fiftieth auction item…”She didn’t say what it was…She even used a cliffhanger to draw attention.Approximately one minute later, three handsome employees in tuxedo suits walked up the stage with a huge display stand.Two pieces of cut original jade rocks were placed on the display stand. The men walked up the stage…Both surfaces of the cut jade rock were full of green jade…From its tone, one could tell that it was high-class glassy imperial green jade.These two surfaces were clearly a single piece of jade material cut into two

Xyla Quest smiled without saying anything. Instead, she simply shook her head.Xavier York instantly lowered his voice. “Oh? Why so?”“My intuition…” Xyla said softly.“Intuition?” Xavier looked confused.“Yes…” Xyla said.“But I think your intuition isn’t accurate… This contains 100% jade. Be it the horsetail pine on the outside, or the cut surface, they’re all conveying the same message…” Xavier said softly.This time, he really felt that Xyla’s intuition was wrong…“I believe in my intuition…” Xyla said determinedly.However, Xavier shook his head and chuckled. “This time, I believe in my intuition, too…”“What about this… Let’s make a bet. If this piece of material is truly worthless, as you say, I’ll give you something,” Xavier said.Xyla nodded calmly. “Sure. What will you give me?”“What do you want?” Xavier asked.“You can decide,” Xyla said.“If it’s true, I’ll give you an antique item. You can go to my antique store and pick anything you want… Anything at all…” X

The risks of rock gambling were too significant.It was either heaven or hell.One might become filthy rich overnight because of an original jade rock, but one might also fall into a bottomless abyss overnight.Xyla Quest and Xavier York’s voices were very soft.However, an old man with a wrinkly face at the table behind them could understand what these two were talking about from the movements of their mouths as well as bits and pieces of what he heard.The old man couldn’t resist looking at Xyla. “Are you stupid? This is good stuff. You really have poor judgment this time…“From every perspective, this material looks great. Can’t you see that a random cut already yielded surfaces covered in jade?“There is even such great horsetail pine on the outside… If another cut is made, and the quality inside isn’t like this surface, I’ll change my surname to yours… You really are blind,” the old man continued to speak. His eyes were full of spite.He felt that Xyla was pretending to be

“Sure… In that case, we’ll proceed with the rock cutting process, as per the custom,” the beautiful auctioneer said.“Sure, alright. Let’s do it here…” The old man said. “Make someone realize that one’s intuition isn’t always right…” After saying that, he looked pointedly at Xyla Quest.Xyla didn’t notice the old man looking at her, but she could feel that he was talking about her.Xyla immediately smiled nonchalantly. However, she didn’t say anything. Instead, she looked silently at the stage and waited for the results.This old man was too ignorant. Xyla felt that she didn’t need to waste a single breath on him.“Alright…” The beautiful auctioneer said before shifting her gaze to Xavier York. “In that case, please join me in inviting Mr. York to cut the rock open for us…”When Xavier heard this, he slowly stood up.“Do you know how to cut original jade rocks open too?” Xyla was shocked to hear this.Xavier nodded gently. “Yeah. My father is an expert in this… I picked up a fe
