A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 220 Are You Joking, Mr Ye?

"Young Master, what are you doing? Don't you remember what I said about number 2? Although there

a lot of snake bands running around it, which usually indicates jade in the rock gambling circles, it takes

a lot of other factors to tell whether the stone is good. But for this rock, other than the bands and its

green hue, the rest of the rock is brown. When you look at it from far, it looks like the color of wood.

Anyone with experience can tell you that stones with this wood tone are definitely goners and it's too

risky to buy it. If it was merely $1,000,000, you could still gamble. But it has now gone over

$10,000,000, so it's not worth it!”

"Also Young Master, I even suspect someone added the snake bands manually. There's a high chance

its scrap stone. Even if it's only $3,000,000, it's pure loss. How can you increase the bid to

$15,000,000? It's always better to be cautious in this industry. Young Master, please think twice!”

When he heard Sun Yu-Hao unexpectedly bidding for it, Li was shocked and quickly persuaded him

against it.

When they were looking at the stones, they had already decided not to bid for this rock at all. But now

Sun Yu-Hao was suddenly bidding for it.

After Sun Yu-Hao heard Li persuade him, he smiled coldly and replied quietly, "Don't worry Li. I know

what I'm doing."

Sun Yu-Hao smiled coldly with a hint of craftiness.

When Shen Fei heard someone else vying for the rock with him, his face turned dark.

Shen Fei cursed angrily, "Fuck! Which blind idiot is bidding against me? How dare he!" Shen Fei

scoured the place wishfully thinking he could find the blind fellow. Sun Yu-Hao's gentle laughter came

as he said, "Young Master Shen, that can't be right. This is an auction. The highest bidder wins."

"It's such a precious stone, so of course, it belongs to the one with the most money. If Young Master

Shen can't afford it, then just say the word. At most I could let you have it and even make a friend in the

process."

Sun Yu-Hao had one hand in his pant pocket as he stood there proudly. His mocking tone made Shen

Fei very upset indeed.

"Let me have it? You must be joking. Do I need you to go easy on me? The Shen family of Yunzhou

has plenty of money! That stone is mine!"

Shen Fei was completely triggered by Sun Yu-Hao. He coldly laughed and yelled, "$20 million!"

What?

"$20 million? Did Young Master Shen offer $20 million?"

"He's the heir of Shen Group! No wonder he can afford to pay that much!” said the auctioneer excitedly.

She didn't expect the bids to go over ten million just shortly after they started.

'$21 million," said Sun Yu-Hao as he continued to outbid him. By now, he was clearly starting to be

careful and only increased the bid by $1 million.

"Fei, that guy only increased the bid a little. It's clear he lost stamina because he got frightened by our

momentum. This time, up the bid by $5 million. I promise you he will get so scared that he won't outbid

you! I've been to plenty of auctions. Other than wealth, it takes some ferocity. This time, we will go all

out and completely shock the blind asshole. That will teach him a lesson about trying to outbid us

again," suggested Han Shao-Jie to Shen Fei as he sneered when he saw Sun Yu-Hao's determination

dwindling.

"Okay, Shao-Jie. Just watch me bring him down with my ferocity! Since he wants to compete with me

financially, I'll let him see how rich I am!" sneered Shen Fei too. Then he raised his paddle and shouted

domineeringly, "Two...”

But just as Shen Fei was about to increase the bid, Ye Fan pulled him from behind. He said quietly,

"Listen, don't do it. That stone is scrap and it's not even worth $2,000.

Sun Yu-Hao is only bidding against you to screw you over."

What?

Scrap stone?

That's not even worth $2,000?

Shen Fei was instantly stunned, "Mr Ye, are you joking? That stone is one of the main attractions at the

auction. It was displayed in the display right at the center of the exhibition. Shao-Jie and many others Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

all said it was good. If it's only scrap, why did the auctioneer use it as one of their star attractions? Why

did so many people bid for it? Why did Sun Yu-Hao bid $20 million for it? So many people agree that

it's a good stone, but you're is saying that it's bad?" said Shen Fei replied Ye Fan while getting anxious.

He could hear the auctioneer counting down.

"That's right. Mr Ye, rock number 2 has good translucency and snake bands appearing randomly on it.

The bands are a clear indication that there is jade inside. If it's scrap, I'll write my name backwards from

now on! Mr Ye, I told you earlier that rock gambling isn't like appraising brush painting. It requires a

good foundation and years of experience. Since you just got yourself acquainted, you don't know much

about it yet, so it's better to listen up quietly and learn more.”

Han Shao-Jie thought highly of the rock too. If Ye Fan was saying it was scrap, it was equal to a slap

on his face, so of course, he sounded slightly critical of Ye Fan.

But Ye Fan continued to say, "I'm not joking with you. If you keep bidding for it. You're going to lose

every single dime."

Before Ye Fan finished, Shen Fei interrupted, "Mr Ye, let me ask you. Did you even see, touch, listen to

it, or shine a light on rock number 2? If you have done any of this, I will buy what you said," said Shen

Fei grimly as he looked Ye Fan.

Ye Fan remained quiet. He could only shake his head at Shen Fei's questions.

"Mr Ye, how can you speak so calmly about it? If you didn't check, then you have no right to speak!

Since you don't know anything about it, then just open your eyes wide and learn." Shen Fei sounded

resentful.

Ye Fan was about to say more. But Qiu Mu-Cheng reached her lovely hand out to pinch Ye Fan on the

waist when she saw this.

"Ye Fan, shut up! You don't know anything about rock gambling, so stop babbling nonsense. Young

Master Shen has been at it for years. Can't he tell whether a stone was good or scrap? He doesn't

need any help from the likes of you. Stop bluffing. Stop crying wolf! You're going to be the death of me!"

Ye Fan was driving Qiu Mu-Cheng mad.

She just reminded Ye Fan to keep his mouth shut if he didn't know better. If he held Shen Fei back from

making money, their family couldn't bear the consequences of that!

How dare this fellow go around acting smarter than he was?

"Young Master Shen, just buy whatever you want and ignore him. Ye Fan was just spouting nonsense.

Don't let him affect your judgment," said Qiu Mu-Cheng as she smiled at Shen Fei and Han Shao-Jie

apologetically.

Shen Fei smiled too, "Don't worry, Miss Qiu. We know Mr Ye was only joking. We will just treat like it

was a gust of wind and not listen to him."

"You..." Ye Fan went livid when he heard Shen Fei's words.

Were they treating him like air after he persuaded them tirelessly for so long?

"Shut up! No one's interested in what you have to say, so be quiet! It's none of your business. If you

don't know any better, then just look. Quit bragging!" Qiu Mu-Cheng looked angrily at Ye Fan. She

wanted to beat this scumbag of a husband up. Her retort left Ye Fan completely speechless.

Fine!

Not like he could be bothered with them anyway.

He had reminded them purely out of goodwill and now he had to be scolded for it?
