Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 931: Chapter 927 Whose Eyes (High-Energy Warning)

None of the people present had ever seen such beautiful jadeite.

Even Hattori Keiko, who had extensive knowledge, was encountering High Ice Type Purple ’Eye’ Jade for the first time.

Yu Shenmu had been open for nearly ten years, but from the first day of business until now, it had never produced such alluring jadeite.

In fact, a few years ago, Hattori Keiko had acquired a piece of Glutinous-type Purple ’Eye’ Jade at a high price and had it processed into a bracelet and necklace set. However, she had never wanted to sell this jewelry set, keeping it for herself and only wearing it on important occasions.

This jewelry set had once attracted the attention of many ladies, and Hattori Keiko had always felt proud of owning a Purple ’Eye’ Jade set.

But upon seeing the High Ice Type Purple ’Eye’ Jade in Huo Sining’s hand, her sense of superiority instantly vanished. She clearly understood that in terms of both color and quality, this High Ice Type Purple ’Eye’ Jade far surpassed her treasured Glutinous-type Purple ’Eye’ Jade set by several levels. Her set would pale into insignificance beside it, reduced to nothing.

It was precisely because of this that Hattori Keiko couldn’t control the greedy impulse to make this High Ice Type Purple ’Eye’ Jade her own. Her eyes were fixed on the jadeite in Huo Sining’s hand, as if it was already hers.

”Truly an eye-opener, discovering that such beautiful jadeite exists in this world; the name ’Purple Eye’ Jade is well-deserved.”

The onlookers couldn’t help expressing their admiration. They had long forgotten that this was essentially a gambling match. For them, seeing is having; being able to witness the birth of such Superior Jadeite with their own eyes was already very satisfying. Such a rare event would enough for them to savor for a long time.

However, while these people forgot the original intent, Huo Sining did not. She looked at Hattori Keiko with a smile and asked, ”Miss Hattori, you were the one who proposed this gamble. I wonder, are you satisfied with this result?”

The value of the High Ice Type Purple ’Eye’ Jade was self-evident. Even though Hattori Keiko’s Hibiscus Kind piece was already a Glutinous-type variant and weighed six or seven pounds, it couldn’t compare to the High Ice Type Purple ’Eye’ Jade. In terms of both quality and value, it was not worth mentioning.

Now the value of Huo Sining’s jadeite was clearly higher than Hattori Keiko’s, and the outcome was clear. According to the agreement, Hattori Keiko had lost and had to pay her forfeit.

The forfeit was also proposed by Hattori Keiko herself. Now that Huo Sining had won, it was like Hattori Keiko had hoisted herself with her own petard.

As Huo Sining said this, the people around fell silent. Only then did everyone realize that this was a gamble initiated by Hattori Keiko herself, and the forfeit was something she first proposed.

Now that Hattori Keiko had lost, she had to fulfill her promise and forfeit a pair of eyes to Huo Sining.

At this moment, everyone realized the seriousness of the situation and dared not speak up, focusing their gaze on the two women in confrontation inside the room, the atmosphere hanging still and tense.

Hattori Keiko’s face turned completely white, her eyes flashed with jealousy and intense resentment as she glared hatefully at Huo Sining.

But Huo Sining seemed oblivious, smiling gracefully at Hattori Keiko, her eyes bright as stars, focusing on Hattori Keiko’s eyes.

”Miss Hattori’s eyes are truly beautiful. I wonder how many people in this world are mesmerized by your eyes?” Huo Sining praised with a click of the tongue, suddenly sighed as if with great regret, ”It’s a pity though, today Miss Hattori lost this gamble, and these eyes will have to stay here. I wonder how many men will sigh in regret for you, Miss Hattori.”

Huo Sining’s smile was warm, her demeanor calm and unruffled, but her words were extremely cruel and bloody.

Although Huo Sining was a kind and compassionate person, her sympathy was not something she would extend to someone who constantly wanted revenge on her.

If the person who had lost the gamble today had been Huo Sining, Hattori Keiko would undoubtedly seize the chance to harm her, certainly intending to gouge out her eyes as revenge.

Huo Sining was well aware of this, understanding Hattori Keiko’s vindictive nature, and could picture the miserable state she would be in if she had lost.

For this reason, she had no sympathy for the woman before her. Since you wanted to gamble, you have to take responsibility for your choice; such a person was not worth her sympathy.

However, Huo Sining anticipated the process and won the gamble but did not foresee the outcome.

When Hattori Keiko was reminded by Huo Sining about the forfeit in the gamble, she was indeed flustered for a moment. But she quickly calmed down, her gaze swept over the faces of the bystanders before finally landing on Huo Sining. Suddenly, she chuckled mockingly and asked Huo Sining:

”Miss Huo, you’re overthinking it. How could I lose a pair of eyes over such a trivial gamble? I did say to bet a pair of eyes as the forfeit, but I never said it would be my eyes. Don’t confuse the two.”

Huo Sining’s expression faltered. Despite her calculations, she hadn’t anticipated that Hattori Keiko had this kind of retreat planned. This woman was not only cunning and deceitful but also shameless.

She could blatantly lie and deny the forfeit she proposed earlier in front of so many people. Huo Sining could not rival this level of shamelessness.

It seemed that no matter the win or loss today, this woman could always find a reason to renege.

Yet what she said was irrefutable by Huo Sining.

Hattori Keiko indeed only stated a bet for a pair of eyes, without specifying they would be her own. She had merely misled Huo Sining through her words, intentionally suggesting otherwise.

”In that case, Miss Hattori, please deliver the forfeit I demand!”

While enraged by Hattori Keiko’s reneging, Huo Sining truly had no words to counter it. This was Dongdu, Hattori Keiko’s territory. She couldn’t truly oppose Hattori Keiko here. However, if Hattori Keiko thought she could dispatch Huo Sining with just a few words and let this gamble fall by the wayside, then she was gravely mistaken!

Huo Sining watched Hattori Keiko coldly, wanting to see how the woman intended to resolve this.

Hattori Keiko glanced at her silent secretary standing by her side.

Noticing Hattori Keiko’s peculiar gaze, the secretary felt a chill in his heart and instantly had a thought flash through his mind.

But before he could clarify his thoughts, Hattori Keiko suddenly stretched out two fingers, lunging them towards his face.
