Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Many of His Kindnesses

Just a few simple words, yet they conveyed the true joy in her heart.

Mother and child are safe....

For her, those were probably the best four words.

Ji Liancheng glanced at her, and a hint of a smile seemed to flit across his face, "Take a rest, we’ll participate in the next one."

He wasn’t really angry.

Lin Zhi had always thought of him as a cold and ruthless person, with an iron fist, and someone who would seek vengeance over the smallest slight. After all, that’s what the rumors said of him.

The incident with Chen Meixi only solidified her opinion of him.

His habitually expressionless face gave people the illusion of a lack of emotions, which led to her longstanding bias against him.

But now, she suspected she was wrong.

A person is very complex, not necessarily what the rumors depict them to be. At least she had witnessed many instances of his kindness.

He was concerned about Shen Rongrong’s premature labor and didn’t tell her about her husband’s affairs.

He also helped her find Zhu Yuan without hesitation and used his connections to save him.

Now, at such a crucial moment, he chose to respect her wishes, allowing her to help with the delivery.

Even though it might cost him greatly.

If it were someone else, they would surely have lashed out at her.

But he didn’t.

This really surprised her and reduced her aversion towards him. This man, was actually not bad at all.

"Alright." Lin Zhi smiled and nodded, deciding to help him with even more dedication.

"Mr. Ji, didn’t you get someone to appraise this raw stone?" But soon, Lin Zhi questioned him.

Everyone else was bidding, yet he remained unmoved.

This was also her way of probing.

"Hmm." Ji Liancheng responded with just a word.

Lin Zhi: "..."

He had seen right through her, which was terrifying! Despite her various disguises in front of him, and his complicity...

Lin Zhi felt embarrassed just thinking about it; he must have been watching her like she was a fool all along.

Was he admitting it to her face now, to tell her to drop the pretense?

That was out of the question; she had to play dumb to the death, no matter what.

The raw stone was quickly taken by someone else, and fortunately, the jade that was extracted wasn’t of the Heavenly Price level, so it seemed like Ji Liancheng still had a chance, and she hadn’t caused him any loss.

It was soon time to appraise the next raw stone. Lin Zhi thought that finally, she could get involved.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what we’re about to auction is not just a single raw stone, but a batch of raw stones! According to the seller, all of these raw stones contain jade, and one of them is guaranteed to yield a once-in-a-century piece of Heavenly Price Jade!

However, the rules of the auction have changed, with only one person being able to come up and choose a raw stone, and they can only choose one. The difference is, this time every raw stone has the same price, one hundred million.

If you pick the Heavenly Price raw stone, you could immediately earn back dozens of times its value. Even if you don’t pick it, no worries, as all these raw stones will contain some jade, though the quality varies, and you’ll at least break even.

So, who wants to take a gamble depends entirely on the strength and luck of everyone present! Now, let our staff bring all the raw stones up."

The words of the host on stage surprised everyone.

They had not anticipated such a sudden change to the rules!

This time, it wasn’t a single raw stone, but a batch, and only one person could come up to choose.

And within that batch was a raw stone of Heavenly Price!

So the rumored Heavenly Price Jade was here, and they had been competing so fiercely before for nothing, knowing this they wouldn’t have wasted their efforts!
