When Charlie saw how arrogant Mr. Quinton was, he sneered as he shook his head in disdain. “You can’t even tell the difference between a gourd and a jade plug? Haven’t you heard of the nine orifices or the jade plugs that were used on corpses?”“What do you mean by jade plugs and corpses?” Mr. Quinton asked with a confused expression on his face.Charlie sighed. “A child cannot be taught!” After that, he shook his head before saying, “You don’t even know this? Have you heard of the ‘Nine Aperture Jade’?”“What ‘Nine Aperture Jade’?” Mr. Quinton asked as he stared at Charlie with a blank expression on his face.Even though Mr. Quinton really enjoyed purchasing antiques, he had never spent any time studying any of his antiques at all. He would always buy whatever anyone said was good before going out to brag about his antique pieces.“Idiot!” Charlie sneered before he continued speaking. “The ‘Nine Aperture Jade’ consists of nine jade plugs that were used by people to plug the nine
Charlie replied coldly before he turned around to leave.When Mr. Quinton saw that the other party was about to leave, he thought that Charlie wanted to escape. Therefore, he yelled immediately, “Stop him! Who gave him the courage to do this? There must be someone backing this kid up!”“I can’t afford to offend you?! Hahaha! There is no one in the whole of Aurous Hill whom I cannot afford to offend!”“Tie him up and break his legs! I want to know who actually has the audacity to provoke the Quinton family!”In fact, Mr. Quinton believed that Charlie was someone that his business rival had purposely sent to provoke him. Otherwise, how else would he know about the car accident that he was in at the start of the year?The bodyguards acted immediately, and they rushed toward Charlie without any hesitation at all.Two other bodyguards walked toward Jacob and reached out their hands before they grabbed him fiercely.Jacob was frightened out of his wits as he had not expected them to g
The crowd believed Charlie and all of them really wanted to go home to check out the sports channel immediately.The expression on Mr. Quinton’s face was hideous right then, and after keeping silent for a short while, he finally regained his senses.This was embarrassing!The bodyguards he had hired and paid so much money for were all professional fighters that he had specifically recruited to protect him. Who would have expected…Who would have expected a young boy who came from nowhere to actually defeat all of these professional fighters, just by watching a television program?Mr. Quinton was not a professional fighter, and so, he did not know that Charlie was actually very skillful. However, his bodyguards were not stupid.They knew that he was an expert as soon as he laid hands on them.Even though Charlie was very humble, his moves were very deadly even when he did not use any strength at all.He was not someone they could easily defeat.Hence, the bodyguards did not ste
”Too weak!”Charlie became furious and moved aside in an instant as he tried to avoid her kick. After that, he lifted his leg and kicked Aurora straight on her ass, causing her to fall to the ground.Adam’s jaw almost dropped to the ground as he stared at the scene before him. He muttered to himself, “This… how could this be possible?!”Aurora was feeling even more embarrassed. Ever since she had started fighting, she had never felt more humiliated than this. Moreover, the spot that Charlie had kicked her on was way too embarrassing!Filled with anger as she stood up, Aurora prepared to rush toward Charlie and attack him immediately. She had already decided that this b*stard would definitely pay the price for his actions today!“Aurora, stop what you are doing! Do not be rude to Mr. Wade.”Just then, a middle-aged man suddenly ran up to her and grabbed hold of Aurora’s hand.Aurora, still utterly embarrassed, yelled, “Dad! Get out of my way! I’m going to kill him!”‘How dare he
Graham was startled by Charlie’s words.His whole family would be ruined?Did he really have to pay such a huge price?Graham turned pale before he sighed and said, “I have never done any bad deeds in my life. I’ve tried to do good deeds and help the people in need every day. So, how did I end up in this state?”Charlie smiled before he asked, “Was this the reason why you wanted to buy that piece of topaz previously?”Graham nodded. In fact, he had already tried all sorts of different methods, but none of it seemed to work until he met Charlie.Previously, he thought that Charlie only knew how to appraise antiques, and so, he had not paid much attention to him.However, today, Charlie had actually pointed out the reason for their misfortunes without any hesitation. Now, Graham knew that Charlie was not an ordinary person at all. In fact, Charlie might be their only hope, and the fate of the Quinton family was in his hands.Graham quickly clasped his hands together as he pleaded
Charlie’s father-in-law was also feeling dumbfounded. This was the first time that he had ever encountered such an unexpected situation in his life.Charlie looked at the jade bracelet but did not accept it immediately. After glancing at it, he looked at Graham before he smiled and said, “Mr. Quinton, how can you be so sure that I will be able to resolve this matter for you?”Graham replied piously, “If Mr. Wade has no way to deal with it, no one else in this world will be able to handle this matter anymore!”Charlie could only smile because Graham was right. He indeed knew how to resolve this matter and divert the misfortune away from the Quinton family.This was because he had already read about this evil spirit in the , and the method to resolve this issue was actually very clear and simple.Charlie glanced at the jade bracelet before he took it in his hands in a casual manner.He examined the jade bracelet and realized that the crystal was really very clear
Graham smiled before he spoke again respectfully, “Mr. Wade, we will never forget your kindness toward the Quinton family. It might be a little rushed today as we did not have any time to make any preparations at all, however, I would like to invite you to the Quinton family mansion for dinner tomorrow. I would like to host a banquet to personally thank you for your kindness, Mr. Wade.”“It’s okay, I have something on tomorrow.” Charlie replied indifferently as he shook his head. “The only reason why I helped you today is because I know that you have always done a lot of good deeds for others. Otherwise, I would not have helped you at all. Do you understand what I am saying?”Graham was taken aback at this. Still, he laughed before nodding. “I understand! Mr. Wade, please do not hesitate to come and look for me if you need any help in the future. The Quinton family will always welcome you.”After that, Graham hurriedly took out a gold-plated business card that contained his personal
After a while, Charlie felt a burst of energy surging through his body as if stimulating all of his senses, bones, and blood.It was Reiki!When he looked at the stone again, Charlie found that the stone seemed to be absorbing all the spiritual energy that it didn’t look any different from a normal lifeless stone.He tried to perform the cultivation method recorded in the “Apocalyptic Book” but he couldn’t extract the Reiki from the stone anymore.Dejected, he put the stone back in his pocket. Intuitively, he felt that the stone was extraordinary, but he had no way to examine it now. It seemed that he had to sharpen his skills first before he could work on the stone again.He hurried to take a bath as he was sticky from the profuse sweating. It was already over 5 pm when he finished the bath, and that’s when Claire called him.On the phone, Claire told Charlie that she was in the middle of the meeting with the Emgrand Group about the project details and that she didn’t drive toda
