NovelEnglishThe old man was already very upset because one-half of the original jade rock turned out to be trash.
Now, this group of people was still getting on his nerves. He felt extremely annoyed! Xyla Quest had already anticipated the old man's attitude.
She still didn't look up. Instead, she slowly put down the cup of tea in her hands. After that, she gently circled her finger around the edge of the teacup.
After that, the old man looked at Xavier York. "Continue cutting it open... I don't believe in superstitions! I also refuse to believe that someone in this room is 100% accurate." After saying that, he turned to look at Xyla coldly once again...
When Xyla unintentionally looked up, she happened to see the old man looking at her.
She still didn't respond.
Instead, she elegantly leaned against the chair behind her as she silently looked at the uncut half of the original jade rock.
Silently, she waited for Xavier to switch on the cutting machine.

Xavier then picked up a black marker pen and quickly drew a line down the center of the other half of the original jade rock. After that, he switched on the cutting machine and carefully held the original jade rock by its edge as he started cutting it...
Everyone below the stage held their breath once again as they looked at the large screen.
Everyone was looking forward to the results from this cutting process.
Xavier was also looking forward to it.
The old man was even more anxious.
He didn't even dare to make a sound, and his eyes were fixed on the half piece of original jade rock...
Soon, the other half of the original jade rock was completely cut.
Xavier carefully pulled the two cut surfaces apart.
This time...
Like the one before, there was nothing inside...
The old man was thoroughly dumbfounded.
The people who still anticipated the results below the stage couldn't resist rolling their eyes at the old man. Suddenly, everyone started speaking loudly.
"Do you see that? Here's someone who doesn't listen to the kind advice of others and ends up suffering..." "Thankfully, I don't have that much money. Otherwise, I would end up like him." "When Xyla first said this object wasn't good, I really thought she had misjudged it this time..." "I'm feeling dizzy... This old man is done for. 180 million dollars has gone down the drain." "Haha. Not exactly, right? He can't at least make a few rings out of it, can't he? Can't he still earn earn million?" "Hahaha... What's ten million compared to 180 million?" The old man could hear every comment coming from below the stage.
Instantly, he felt even more humiliated...
It felt like everyone's gaze around him was like hot iron... Search The FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

He recalled how he acted arrogantly in front of Xyla. He truly wished he te could burrow his way into a hole somewhere. In fact, he was too embarrassed to look up at Xyla's face.
If he had known this would happen, he would've listened to Xyla.
In that case, if he had taken the item away and sold it off, off, not only would he not have to lose any money, but he might have even earned a profit...
Although it wasn't likely for him to make a lot of profit, it'd still be better than losing so much money like what was happening now! 'D*mn. I'm such an idiot!' The old man cursed at himself in his heart.
When Xyla saw his facial expression, she helplessly shook her head. Many people fail due to their ignorance.
Xyla wanted to maintain her indifference toward incidents like this.
"Kiddo... Tell us how you managed to tell that this material was no good?" Xavier couldn't resist asking.
He truly felt extremely curious about Xyla right now.
