Chapter 122
She quickly summarized her predictions in one breath, only leaving behind one relatively large stone that was already revealing a slimmer of green color. “And this one is a fake!” XunMi turned it around in her hand. The green color emitting seemed pretty accurate. Under the light, it flashed a brilliant green.
Hearing that the half opened stone emitting a dazzling green was being called fake made the audience scoff.
“On what grounds are you saying that this is fake? It’s color is bright, clear, and pure. You should be able to tell immediately that this is a Furong type gem.” One of the gemstone masters retorted immediately. The other gemstone betting masters watched with a bit of schadenfraude.
XunMi calmly glanced at the gemstone master that had spoken. After remembering his face, she started speaking. “Dumb, this stone is created from a hard outer layer of a jadeite shell. Then, various quartz pieces were glued to the jadeite-looking shell. Therefore, it’s soft. It doesn’t have the natural feel of a real crystal. How could you take this to be a Furong type? I really don’t know how you even got into this place, was your invitation card forged?” Although XunMi’s poisonous tongue ability was at its max, she was still careful to not insult the royal family.
After all, she just came back from a world where she had used her fists to do most of the talking. It was a bit of a challenge to suddenly switch back to talking with reason. She was already impressed with her ability to control her temper to this extent.
The gemstone master’s face turned red after being completely ridiculed by XunMi. Angrily, he pointed at XunMi, “You-you are speaking without thinking!”
XunMi narrowed her eyes. “Didn’t anyone tell you that when you point at someone with one finger, the rest of your fingers are pointing back at yourself?”
She had gotten used to a certain kind of behavior in the xuanhuan world, so it was hard to just endure someone’s provocation. But XunMi still restrained herself a little. This wasn’t the right place.
The gemstone master was once again pierced by XunMi’s words. His face darkened. However, he listened and dropped his hand to his side.
XunMi shrugged her shoulders. “Rather than disputing with me here, why not improve your own skills and efforts?”
Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be a counterfeit article at the royal family’s gemstone appraisal convention. The royal family’s personal gemstone master also wouldn’t allow such a smear on his reputation. Yet, reality said differently.
There was only one possibility: this was arranged by royal family. The reason was obvious.
XunMi quickly thought through everything her head while maintaining a willful smile.
An ZiYi, An ZiYi. Let’s see if you are truly that dumb. XunMi really was bad. She had removed the barriers on the other stones, but kept the barrier around the fake stone in tact.
BaoBao floated in the air, his fur standing on end. Who had taught his gentle and warmhearted Madam Host to be so mischievous?
As expected, An ZiYi also said that the counterfeit article was a Furong type.
After the last gemstone betting participant gave his prediction, the master cutter standing on the side stepped forward to prepare breaking open the stones. With each split stone, there were some participants that smiled with satisfaction and others that frowned with worry.
An ZiYi was part of the latter group. Out of ten stones, eight had already been split open. Out of those eight, she hadn’t been able to get even one right.
By the time the last stone was cut open, it was clear that her luck had run out for today.
Out of ten stones, XunMi had gotten them all right, including the one she predicted to be a fake.
“How could this be? How did this happen?” An ZiYi recoiled as her complexion paled, completely unable to maintain her facade as the innocent beauty.
She glared at the XunMi, who was receiving praise and cheers from the audience as if she had already won. She didn’t believe that this was true. She didn’t believe that the previously trustable and accurate power of hers would suddenly mess up like this.
XunMi must have interfered somehow. XunMi didn’t think that she could win over her so she cheated somehow.
Surprisingly, An ZiYi had actually guessed the truth.
“XunMi, it’s you! You’re the one who did this to me, right? I should be the one winning. How could you compare to me?” An ZiYi was wearing a long white dress as usual, her natural makeup making pleasing to the eye.
If viewers could ignore the unrestrained craziness in her eyes and the ugly words coming out of her mouth, she would still be considered a beautiful woman.
XunMi very inelegantly rolled her eyes. She walked forward, as if she was looking down at her.
“Miss An, you really think highly of yourself. I did win over you. And you did lose. But how shameless are you to say I harmed you just because you lost? Seriously, just because you think so highly of yourself doesn’t mean I do too.” She patted An ZiYi on the shoulder, making sure the ridicule in her voice was obvious. “An ZiYi, I suggest for you to avoid losing face here if you don’t have the abilities. You want to throw the blame on me for losing today. But who will you blame tomorrow? Hehe, I’m embarrassed for you.” With an unyielding smile, XunMi walked off the stage.
The results had been revealed. She already received the certification so now she can discussing selling it with her Han ge.
Thinking about it now, wasn’t there an evening party too?
But she didn’t want to go. She would much rather escape for some alone time with her Han ge.
Mi WenHan watched contently as she headed straight for him.
“Han ge, look. I won.” XunMi showed the gilded certification booklet to Mo WenHan.
No WenHan stroked her hair. “XunMi is really impressive.”
“Then Han ge, you need to give me an reward. En, what do I want?” She tapped her nose pondering. She has everything she wanted already though. Oh right, there was one other thing.
“No matter what you want, I’ll get it for you.” Even if it’s stars in the sky, Mo WenHan would find a way to get it for her.
XunMi stood on the tips of her toes and whispered into Mo Wenhan’s ear. “You still owe me a wedding. Let’s get married.”
The last time she was here, she was kicked out of the world right after she said yes to Han he’s proposal. That was her eternal regret.
Mo WenHan’s heart jumped, his face unable to hide the absolute joy resulting from her words.
“Okay.” That way, this person would be completely his.
Mo WenHan hugged XunMi and spoke to those around them.
I’ll like to take advantage of this opportunity to announce to everyone that XunMi and I will be holding our wedding very soon. I invite everyone to attend.”
“I’m so happy, Mi’er.” He lowered his head to look at her while smiling widely.
His smile was like the bright hemisphere sun, having the ability to melt any glaciers. In that one moment, ice melted and flowers bloomed again under this dazzling image.
