Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Really Stupid, I’m Truly Damn Stupid! (Add 3 more Chapters)

Seeing the shocked expressions all around him, Boss Zheng at this moment was incredibly pumped, thirty billion? It was nothing; he owned assets worth over a hundred billion!

The other bidders were intimidated by his bravado and didn’t dare to continue bidding.

Seeing this sucker fall into the trap, Xiao Haimei aptly delivered a compliment, ”Boss Zheng is so bold; I admire men like you.”

After saying this, she felt a bit nauseous and couldn’t help but glare at Ye Haochuan, clearly blaming him for using her as bait.

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but laugh inwardly, thinking Sister Mei was wasting her talent not becoming an actress with such an immersive performance.

Reflecting on this, he subtly gave her a thumbs up to show his appreciation.

Xiao Haimei sneakily glanced at him, her enchanting eyes so seductive they made Ye Haochuan gulp.

On the other side, Boss Zheng straightened up, with a lecherous tone, he said, ”Miss Xiao’s words are too kind, as long as Miss Xiao is happy, that’s all that matters. How about it? Are you satisfied with the price?”

Xiao Haimei giggled and said, ”Of course, I’m satisfied. I’ll definitely commend someone as generous as you to my grandfather.”

”Good, good, that’s wonderful...”

Boss Zheng was overjoyed. Although he was considered significant in Haishan, compared to Old Master Xiao, he was nothing. If he could form a connection with Old Master Xiao, his potential for advancement would be limitless!

He heard that Old Master Xiao was extremely fond of his granddaughter Haimei. If he was lucky enough to catch the old man’s eye, and be chosen as the grandson-in-law, he’d be made.

But he didn’t consider his appearance, resembling a fat pig, that would unlikely impress Old Master Xiao. Not to mention, nearing fifty years old, Old Master Xiao would never want his granddaughter to end up a young widow.

However, at this moment, Boss Zheng, led astray by Haimie, didn’t take any of this into account.

Next, Xiao Haimei and Boss Zheng completed the transaction of thirty billion on the spot.

Just like that, the White Python Raw Stone, which just had two ”windows” cut into it, changed hands, becoming the property of Boss Zheng.

At that moment, the Stone-Cutting Master asked Boss Zheng if he wished to continue cutting the stone.

Boss Zheng proudly declared, ”Nonsense, of course, we continue cutting, let everyone have a good look!”

In truth, it wasn’t so much for everyone’s benefit but rather to show off.

Hissss...

The saw blade of the Stone Cutting Machine whirred to life once more.

All eyes at the venue were wide open.

However, to everyone’s amazement, just five seconds after the blade whirred, a white mist shrouded the Stone Cutting Machine.

It was over!

Many in the crowd felt a sudden tightness in their chests, then started to take pleasure in the disaster, stirring up a commotion, ”It’s collapsed, it’s collapsed...”

Boss Zheng’s mind went blank, and he staggered, as if a breeze might sweep him off his feet.

He Yun, who was beside him, hurriedly stepped forward to hold him but was pushed away by him. He barked at the Stone-Cutting Master, ”Damn it, I refuse to believe it, cut again!”

The White Python Raw Stone was exceptionally large, making it impossible to jump to conclusions until the very last moment.

The Stone-Cutting Master continued to cut deeper.

As usual, it was nothing but a white mist, without a hint of green.

After a short while, with a snap, the huge White Python Raw Stone split in two, revealing from its cross-section that beneath the vibrant and enticing skin, there were just eyesores of brick-like material.

That is to say, the White Python Raw Stone had indeed collapsed.

Boss Zheng’s face turned extremely ugly, the blue veins on his chubby face twitching incessarily, clearly on the verge of a violent outburst.

Ye Haochuan, Xiao Haimei, Li Wenfeng, and Liu Qing’er watched with undisguised satisfaction, saying to themselves, ”That’s what you get for lusting after someone else’s wife! Serves you right!”

At the same time, Xiao Haimei, Li Wenfeng, and Liu Qing’er were utterly impressed with Ye Haochuan, thinking he was incredibly skilled. They had no idea how he had been able to predict the collapse of the White Python Raw Stone.

Li Wenfeng, barely holding back his laughter, said to Boss Zheng, ”Boss Zheng, take it easy, it’s just three billion, right? For a tycoon like you, it’s merely a drop in the bucket.”

Take it easy? I haven’t lost my father!

Boss Zheng was so angry that his eyebrows trembled. He wished he could tear this kid in half but his reason told him not to act on this impulse.

Therefore, all he could do was give Li Wenfeng an angry glare and shouted, ”You little punk, shut up!”

Li Wenfeng chuckled and teased, ”Boss Zheng, don’t tell me you can’t afford the bet? That’s not good, you’re a big boss after all. You need to show some grace, grace...”

Grace my ass, it’s three billion we’re talking about here! Just like that, gone down the drain!

Boss Zheng felt like crying but had no tears.

All around them, the murmurs began, all discussing Boss Zheng. The sneers and mocks were endless.

Hearing these remarks was like adding fuel to the fire for Boss Zheng, his face burning with shame. Damn it, one misstep can cause everlasting regret. Why did I lose my mind like that? To buy a useless stone just for a woman, what a huge price to pay! I’m such a fool, truly an idiot!

Just then, Xiao Haimei’s voice rang in his ears, ”Boss Zheng, wealth is nothing but an external possession, there’s no need to be so dejected. Don’t worry, I will introduce you to our Old Master Xiao. As long as you cooperate well with the Xiao Group, a measly three billion won’t take long to earn back.”

Hearing this, Boss Zheng immediately perked up as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

Yes, indeed. Although he had spent three billion, with a collaboration with the Xiao Group, the money would come rolling in. What’s three billion in the grand scheme of things?

Boss Zheng immediately straightened his back, shooting a heated glance at Xiao Haimei and laughed heartily, ”Miss Xiao, you jest. For someone like Yours Truly Zheng, a mere three billion is nothing. Easy come, easy go...”

Xiao Haimei felt intense revulsion towards his behavior, but she managed a sweet smile on her face and said, ”Then I toast in advance to a successful partnership between us.”

Gazing at her stunning smile, Boss Zheng was so distracted he lost his composure, ”A successful partnership, indeed... a successful partnership...”

After making idle talk for a couple of sentences more, Xiao Haimei, finding it unbearable to stay any longer, made an excuse and pulled Ye Haochuan away to the next Raw Stone display.

Having witnessed Ye Haochuan’s performance in gambling stones, Xiao Haimei trusted him even more. Now that she had gained an unexpected three billion, she wouldn’t feel the pinch from spending a few tens of millions more to continue gambling on stones.

The Raw Stone that Ye Haochuan had chosen was in an inconspicuous corner of the exhibition hall, small in size, unimpressive in appearance, and generally overlooked, attracting no interest.

”Brother Ye, you’re picking this one?”

Though Li Wenfeng admired Ye Haochuan’s natural talent for gambling stones, this particular Raw Stone seemed too unremarkable, didn’t it?

Ye Haochuan nodded confidently; he had used ”Perspective” earlier and deemed this stone to have the best potential for a price increase.

He beckoned a staff member from the organizer over and indicated his desire to have the Raw Stone cut.

The staff member looked surprised but agreed to arrange it at once.

Not far away, the crowd that was still keenly discussing Boss Zheng’s recent loss at stone gambling overheard that someone was about to gamble on a stone, and they swarmed over once more.

Boss Zheng and He Yun were amongst them.

Seeing Xiao Haimei pull out her bank card on the spot and swipe two million to pay for Ye Haochuan’s bet, both Boss Zheng and He Yun felt uncomfortable.

He Yun mocked on the spot, ”Ye Haochuan, you gamble on stones too? Don’t make me laugh.”
