Chapter 155 Breakthrough Part 1





What will that evil monstrous woman do to him and his family, when she inevitably loses this wager, and her social status gets decimated to smithereens?


Isn't it obvious that she would take out all her pent up anger on someone like her ex-husband??!!! Shi Meng subconsciously shivered.


How in the hell was he supposed to get out of this predicament??


He looked at his mother and she seemed like she would budge from her place only if lightning strikes.


She was so invested in seeing Su Lin taken down a few pegs and put in her place.


Shi Meng restlessly fidgeted with his fingers before giving up.


Even if he was not able to save his mother, he still needed to get the hell out of here.


Maybe considering her age, Su Lin might not even do anything to his mother.


Shi Meng consoled himself and tried to silently abscond from that spot when his dear friend Su Han caught sight of him.


"Bro. Where are you going? Wait for it. There is going to be a good show today."


And he said it so loudly that even Su Lin who was standing a few feet away couldn't help but look in their direction.


Gadong.


Her bright smile sent shivers down Shi Meng's spine and he immediately stopped in his tracks, completely frozen in fear.


Clearly, he had already missed his chance to get the hell out of here.


Shi Meng sighed and looked at Grandpa Su, who was now completely focussed on the rock in front of him.


There were mainly two things to look for when inspecting a precious ore. One is its origin and the other is the grade of the ore.


Since it was Lu Che's shop, which has been successfully running this business for many years now, the origin of the ore was definitely reliable.


The grade of the ore is what needed to be inspected and this was not a particularly easy task.


Raw jade is most often covered by withered base material that looks no different than an ordinary rock.


The different spots on the ore, the occasional small tinge of greenish texture on its surface, and any sign of the famous black belt around the rock are all small indications that the seemingly normal rock might contain precious treasure within it.


Even then there is no such thing as a sure marker. Ore inspection at its best is still a gamble and 99% dependent on pure luck!


Grandpa Su looked at the first rock that had been placed on the table for inspection and took out his personal magnifying glass.


He then slowly and cautiously inspected each and every single nook and corner of the rock with his superior grade magnifying glass.


Several gasps in the crowd could be heard, watching such a famous master in action.


"I heard there is some sort of wager going on."


"What? Isn't that just willingly falling into a hole?"


"Everybody knows that even though the Sus are not involved in jewellery industry, the old man still dabbled in the art and had personally amassed several precious jadeites."


"I think that wager is with that woman."


"Is she from some famous family? I have never seen her before?"


The crowd started whispering and murmuring amongst themselves.


Su Lin tapped her feet on the floor as she patiently waited for the old man to finish.


But Grandpa Su didn't look like he was going to finish any time soon.


He took his sweet time to elaborately inspect and was still working on that first piece of rock.


And they could probably purchase about 10 of these rocks for the million yuan wager amount.


Everything was still going according to Su Lin's plan, but unfortunately, it looked like this old man was probably going to take the entire day or so to finish his inspections.


So Su Lin silently walked away and selected one of the seating areas in the hotel lounge and started working on the other company details.


Ah Min as well followed her and settled near her boss to finish some of her daily tasks.


She was still nervous about this whole thing and had even offered to collect some intel about the rock inspection, but Su Lin swiftly refused her help. "Don't waste your time on this. Let's focus on the other work."


Ah Min could only obediently nod and do her other work. Though her eyes kept darting towards the old man who was intensely analyzing the ore surfaces.


Grandpa Su, of course, noticed that Su Lin had already left the crowd and had leisurely sat down somewhere else.


It was blatant disrespect.


"Such impudence! We should make sure to teach that slut a lesson she won't forget." Mama Meng happily added more fuel to kindle his anger further.


Grandpa Su harrumphed loudly and continued his inspection. To him, this was a delicate art and one of his favorite hobbies.


So he really didn't mind spending this much time on this insignificant wager.


The people in the crowd might even get to learn a thing or two from him.


A wise experienced master like him had to be generous at times and nurture the younger generations.


Otherwise, all the traditional art and culture would be lost little by little with every passing generation.


Grandpa Su clicked his tongue and patiently inspected inch after inch of every single rock that was allocated for him.


While Su Lin casually yawned in the other corner and begrudgingly worked on the paperwork that came along with being a CEO.


In this fashion, almost an entire day passed by, and Grandpa Su finally finished selecting all his raw ores.
