Chapter 205: Unfolding Drama
Everyone was stunned when they heard Jia Hao. Jia Hao stood there with a smiling face, as if he was praising Wu Mengji.
" Uh…Huhuhu…You are quite a…Naughty child." Wu Mengji couldn't understand Jia Hao's taunt for a moment before realizing it. Her breathing became harder, but she didn't lost her composure.
" Ahem, Hao'er, Don't say like that." Su Yunqi spoke in a slightly strict tone.
" She is your elder after all."
" Ah yes, Indeed. I should respect the elderly." Jia Hao replied coyly.
Wu Mengji felt that Su Yunqi was going to berate Jia Hao.
But hearing the second part of her sentence, She almost choked up.
" Yo-You!!"
" Ahem, Big Sister Su, Can we go there? I want to taste some pastries." Jia Hao chose to back away along with Su Yunqi. Su Yunqi also gave a light smirk.
" Sure, Let's go."
Stomping her feet, Wu Mengji glared at Su Yunqi and Jia Hao as they walked away.
" Su Yunqi, You bitch…I shall see it!"
Su Yunqi and Jia Hao walked in the distance as Su Yunqi burst laughing.
" Gosh, Hao'er…You are an absolute menace." She couldn't help but rub her eyes as she wiped off tears.
" Well, I knew her personality the moment I saw her." Jia Hao chuckled. " She always tries to pick on you, yes?"
" Yeah, She used to be a senior of my school. But she is always jealous of me." Su Yunqi sighed.
" My late husband, my wealth, my position, she envies everything."
" Envy is a human nature." Jia Hao replied. " However, hating and hurting someone due to envy isn't forgivable."
" My my, Someone is in deep philosophy, huh?" Su Yunqi chuckled as she pinched Jia Hao's cheek.
" And what's with that Big Sister Su, Hm? You want to make me appear younger?"
" You are young, Aunt Su." Jia Hao grinned. " You know me. Given the chance, I will…"
" You will what?"
Su Yunqi raised her brow and looked at Jia Hao. Jia Hao only smirked as he looked away.
" Nothing, I shall not tell."
Jia Hao passed a champagne glass to Su Yunqi, which she picked.
" Tsk, being all mysterious, huh?"
Su Yunqi and Jia Hao chatted. Suddenly, Su Yunqi turned around and walked to a few people. Jia Hao could see they were the investors of the Blue Crystal Company.
' Tsk tsk, Look at these old foggies. Oogling at her body as if they gonna jump at her.' Jia Hao was amused when he looked at them.
But he has to admit, Su Yunqi looked very beautiful and…seductive this evening. She wore a blue sleeveless gown with silver lining all over it.
The medium deep V cut showed only a little bit of her cleavage, but the two slides of clothes pressed against her motherly breasts, outlining them perfectly.
Not to mention, her bare leg all the way up to her thighs from the slit of her dress, and that golden high heel, everything made Su Yunqi look like a seductive and mature supermodel.
As Jia Hao was drinking, he suddenly felt a familiar presence near him. Turning around, he saw it was old man Chen Mo, from Tianguang Hall.
" Ohoho, Lad, I didn't expect to see you here."
" Greetings, Elder Chen." Jia Hao cupped his fist. " It's truly been a while."
" Indeed. I heard you sold that snow lion statue to Sun Shuang?" Chen Mo rubbed his chin. " Tsk, Two billion Yuan, huh?"
" Elder Chen sure knows all the news." Jia Hao gave a mild smile. " But, I believe it was able to help Mr. Sun. So two billion yuan wasn't an exorbitant price."
" Haah, I believe so." Chen Mo sighed.
" But what about now? You don't have any new treasures?"
" Oh, Is that what Elder Chen is interested in?" Jia Hao's lips curled.
" Why not? Even if I am old, I love to see new things." Chen Mo laughed.
" Well, Not any new treasures, but…Our Blue Crystal Corporation mined some unique jades this time. Elder Chen, Do you want to see?"
" Huh? You have brought them?" Chen Mo was surprised. " Of course, I will see it."
Jia Hao laughed as he showed his empty palms to Chen Mo. But suddenly, flipping it, a bright crystal green crystal and a gentle blue crystal appeared in each palm."
" My goodness! What a trick."
Chen Mo was amused when he saw Jia Hao's trick. But his expression changed when he saw the green crystal.
" This…Emerald Flash Imperial Jade?" Chen Mo gasped as he looked at the crystal.
" This…This is even more rare than ordinary Imperial Green Jades." Chen Mo spoke with a surprised expression.
" And this cut…This is simply a perfect piece. Heavens! Where did you get this?"
" Didn't I tell you? It came from a mining site." Jia Hao laughed lightly.
" And this is a small piece. There are some other bigger pieces."
" You are really a hell of a lucky brat, aren't you?" Chen Mo sighed. " The Flashing Green Imperial Jade, it contains some natural power."
" If crafted into ornaments with other spiritual materials, it might become a real magical trinket."
" But, What's this stone? Aquamarine?"
The moment Chen Mo held the second crystal, he felt a strange coldness on his palm. It was as if he dipped his hand into a pool of fresh and cold water.
" This is a rare mutation of Aquamarine. It was found inside a deep pool. If I have to appraise it, I shall say…It contains the attribute of water and yin." Jia Hao replied.
" Just having it directly, one can absorb this energy. Else, you can also use it in fengshui to remove the deficiency of Water element."
" This… Is this true?" Chen Mo was stunned when he heard that. " But…I can feel it. Indeed, this crystal feels very different."
Jia Hao smirked when he saw the expression of Chen Mo.
'Heh, This is the lowest quality of Water Crystal, yet you are so fascinated?'
Chen Mo returned the crystals to Jia Hao with a sigh.
" You really got some good stuff. Why don't you come to my Tianguang Hall someday?"
" Hoho, Is Elder Chen inviting me casually? Or…You want me to appraise something?"
" Cheeky brat, Can't I act like a good elder?" Chen Mo laughed at Jia Hao's answer.
Su Yunqi noticed Jia Hao and Chen Mo and hurriedly came to them."
" Ah, Greetings, Elder Chen Mo. It'd be nice to meet you."
" Ah, You must be CEO Su." Chen Mo smiled. " You are Little Hao's Aunt, yes?"
" Indeed."
Su Yunqi couldn't help but be amazed when she saw how casually Chen Mo was talking with Jia Hao.
' Is he the same Chen Mo, who is revered as a solemn person in the antique market?' She couldn't help but think inwardly.
" Jia Hao is truly a genius in appraisal. I truly wish to borrow him." Chen Mo smiled.
" Don't worry, Elder Chen. My services are always available." Jia Hao grinned.
" Hahaha, Good! I like it." Elder Chen laughed lightly.
" Everyone, May I have your attention, please?"
The organizer of the event, Mr. Dong, spoke in the microphone.
" Today, We are going to have a small charity auction. So, I hope everyone will participate in it."
" So, Let's begin! Our first item is an ancient painting!"
" The bidding starts with 10,000 Yuan!"
Soon enough, many people participated in it. After a few rounds, there came a diamond necklace, which Su Yunqi bid for.
" 400,000 Yuan!"
" 500,000!"
Wu Mengji suddenly spoke. Su Yunqi was mildly surprised as she increased the bid by 50,000.
As the bidding war continued, Wu Mengji bought it for a million yuan.
The auction had a small break afterwards, to create suspense for the final items.
But suddenly, a waiter suddenly stumbled before Su Yunqi, spilling the wine on her clothes.
" Ahhh!"
" Damn it! Can't you see?"
Su Yunqi was at a loss as she could see her dress getting stained. Chen Mo flared up, but Su Yunqi shook her head.
" Are you ok?"
" I…I am sorry, Miss. It was an…"
" I know, It's an accident." Su Yunqi smiled. " I am just asking if you were hurt. The glass shards, please be careful."
Jia Hao sighed as he shook his head. Su Yunqi was truly a naturally kind beauty.
" I am alright, Miss. Thank you for your concern." The waiter hurriedly nodded and walked away.
Soon enough, a middle aged man and another person came hurriedly.
" I am sorry, Miss Su. You had to suffer like that due to our staff."
" It's ok, Mr. Dong. Accidents happen." Su Yunqi shook her head. " Please just point me in the direction of the washroom."
" I shall take you there." Jia Hao spoke as he held Su Yunqi and took her away.
As Su Yunqi entered the women's washroom, Jia Hao stood outside. Looking at the watch, his lips curled up.
Not long after Su Yunqi went inside, a woman came out of the washroom. Jia Hao's lips curled when he saw that.
Not long after, Su Yunqi also came out.
" You were waiting till now?"
" Why not?" Jia Hao smiled.
" Anyway, Aunt Su, Let me hold your purse."
" Oh please." Su Yunqi smiled lightly. " You don't need to act like my butler.
" Why? You don't want a young, handsome, and capable butler like me?" Jia Hao placed his palm on his chest and gave a light bow.
" Haha, You really enjoy teasing me, hm?" Su Yunqi chuckled. " Fine, You can hold it."
But as they returned to the hall, both of them heard some commotion.
" What? Wu Mengji's diamond necklace got stolen?"
" Who it could be?"
