Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Choosing Raw Stones

"Pfft—"

With a soft sound, the piece of Orchid Ice held in Ning Deguang’s hand suddenly turned into powder at that moment, leaving not a single trace intact!

Ning Deguang just stared blankly at the Orchid Ice powder in his hand, unable to recover for a long time.

He really couldn’t understand how a perfectly good piece of Orchid Ice could suddenly turn into powder?

It’s not scientific, this is completely unscientific!

"Hiss—"

A series of gasps rose exactly at that moment.

The reactions of the people present, although mostly similar to Ning Deguang’s current state.

But since the Orchid Ice wasn’t theirs, aside from being shocked and puzzled as to why it had turned into what it was now, they really had no other thoughts, at most they just felt a bit of pity.

However, for the current Ning Deguang, who had just spent four million three hundred thousand to snatch this Orchid Ice from Shen Yuyan’s hands, it was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue!

His facial muscles twitched nonstop, and finally, he roared, angrily addressing the shop owner:

"Owner! What on earth is going on! Could it be that all the raw stones here have problems?"

"Hiss—"

Hearing Ning Deguang’s nearly unreasonable words, Zhao Jing, who stood beside Shen Yuyan, immediately scoffed in disdain.

Only to hear her say in a tone that seemed to revel in his misfortune, "Mr. Ning, are you out of your mind? Gambling on stones is inherently risky, where do you get the idea there’s a problem with the raw stones?"

She paused, and then Zhao Jing continued teasingly, "It seems your luck isn’t great today, Mr. Ning, haha, but then again, I and Mr. Shen really do have to thank you today."

Her implication was that all of this was brought upon by Ning Deguang himself, so who else could he blame? He deserved to suffer such a great loss.

"The lady just now is right, gambling on stones is indeed like this, getting a good jade is your good fortune, not getting one can’t be blamed on others, as for your current situation..."

The shop owner, having seen Ning Deguang’s reaction just now, was already somewhat displeased.

Now seeing Zhao Jing speaking in his defense, how could he remain indifferent?

He paused slightly and then continued, "As for your current situation, although rare, it’s not really surprising and it’s certainly not related to our shop. If you insist on your earlier view, I can only say sorry."

Listening to Zhao Jing and the shop owner, Ning Deguang felt insanely furious inside.

Keep in mind, that was four million three hundred thousand, not just four hundred and thirty.

Now, his four million three hundred thousand had simply gone down the drain, to say that Ning Deguang was not heartbroken was obviously impossible.

What’s more, his current situation, not only could it not be refuted, but it also made him the butt of jokes among Shen Yuyan and her group, which was one of the main reasons for Ning Deguang’s loss of control.

"Hehe, Zhu Fei, it seems that listening to you just now was indeed the right choice."

At this moment, Shen Yuyan’s beautiful eyes shifted slightly, and she gave Zhu Fei a slightly coquettish glare.

Although she was unclear how that piece of Orchid Ice had turned into what it was now.

She could vaguely guess that this matter was definitely linked to Zhu Fei.

"Hehe, Sister Shen, this was just a starter, just watch, there will definitely be even bigger surprises waiting for you."

Zhu Fei smiled slightly, looking at Shen Yuyan’s pretty eyes hidden behind the tea-colored glasses, his heart suddenly felt a bit fiery.

For some reason, he suddenly realized that his feelings for Shen Yuyan were becoming increasingly fervent.

Her every word and action, every frown and smile, seemed to imperceptibly affect his emotions.

Could it be that he hadn’t actually been devoid of intentions toward Shen Yuyan earlier, but he simply hadn’t realized it at first?

"Hehe, really? Well then, I’ll just wait and see how you surprise me."

Shen Yuyan’s charming eyes gave Zhu Fei a slightly annoyed glance once again.

Despite this, Shen Yuyan did not show any flirtatious intent.

But Zhu Fei felt that Shen Yuyan’s behavior now incited even more intense interest in him.

No! Something really seemed wrong!

Zhu Fei was suddenly alarmed, realizing that with his self-control, he shouldn’t be having such thoughts about Shen Yuyan at this time.

At the same time, he also recalled that during the first night he dined with Shen Yuyan, he seemed to have had a similar feeling toward her.

Could it be that there was still something about Shen Yuyan he hadn’t noticed?

"Hey, Zhu Fei, what are you daydreaming about? What should we do next?"

Just as Zhu Fei was lost in his thoughts, Shen Yuyan’s somewhat reproachful voice suddenly rang in his ears again.

"Cough cough..."

Zhu Fei immediately came back to his senses and looked at Shen Yuyan with slight embarrassment, coughing a bit guiltily before he said,

"Sister Shen, let me take you to pick some jade raw stone now, rest assured, you will be satisfied with the outcome."

"Humph! That’s a bold claim!"

Perhaps hearing Zhu Fei and Shen Yuyan’s conversation, Ning Deguang, who was feeling very gloomy, suddenly scoffed dismissively.

"Hehe, whether it’s a bold claim or not, Mr. Ning will find out soon."

Zhu Fei did not intend to pay any more attention to Ning Deguang. He simply said that and then took Shen Yuyan and Zhao Jing to select jade raw stones on their own.

...

"Boss, how much for this raw stone?"

Upon reaching the area where the jade raw stones were displayed, Zhu Fei immediately picked up a stone about half the size of a football and very irregular in shape, and asked the shop owner.

"Young man, the raw stone in your hand is quite ordinary, but if you really want to try selecting it for fun, I can give you a discount and take eight hundred for it."

The shop owner was quite polite to Zhu Fei.

After all, Zhao Jing had just spoken on his behalf a moment ago.

Even though he knew Zhao Jing spoke up more to confront that Mr. Ning, the owner still appreciated their gesture.

But like most people present, he didn’t really take seriously the words Zhu Fei had said to Shen Yuyan.

"Hehe, well then, thank you, boss. But I’m going to pick more than just this one raw stone: that one over there, this one here, and that other one, too. Could you bring them all over, and let’s see how much they all cost?"

While speaking, Zhu Fei had already chosen four raw stones in one breath.

However, as Shen Yuyan and Zhao Jing clearly saw the four raw stones Zhu Fei had picked, both women couldn’t help but frown slightly.

Meanwhile, not far from them, Ning Deguang watched Zhu Fei and his group, a disdainful sneer forming on his face.
