Chapter 2370 - 2379: Betting

Chu Feng was captivated by Qin Yu’s magical stone-carving techniques, and he completely forgot about Hu Zhuoqing.

Qin Yu was very pleased with Chu Feng’s performance. It seemed that Chu Feng truly loved stone carving; he had the potential to become a renowned master.

To Chu Feng’s questions, Qin Yu answered without reservation. In just half an hour, Chu Feng made significant gains!

Many mysteries were unveiled!

Chu Feng was certain and affirmed that his stone-carving skills had greatly improved after that half-hour session.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin, for your generous teaching; I, Chu Feng, will remember your kindness."

As he said this, Chu Feng’s expression suddenly changed! How can I betray Mr. Qin when he is so sincere to me?

"Old Chu, you have a good understanding. I’m relieved to hand over Exhibition Hall 52 to you,"

Qin Yu looked at Chu Feng with a gentle gaze, hoping he would tell the truth and not waste his efforts in mentoring him.

Chu Feng’s lips twitched incessantly, battling internally!

What should I choose?

On one hand was his good friend, and on the other was his mentor!

Qin Yu, pretending to speak carelessly, said, "Old Chu, your stone-carving technique must have originated from the Capital City lineage. It’s quite similar to Stone King Wang Yuan’s technique.

It’s a pity you haven’t grasped the essence of that lineage; you’ve only scratched the surface.

Therefore, while your understanding is better than Hu Zhuoqing’s, your skills aren’t as good."

It was spoken offhandedly, but with underlying intention.

Chu Feng narrowed his eyes, remembering when he had sought advice from Hu Zhuoqing, who had evaded and spoken ambiguously, never revealing the core techniques of stone carving to him.

Ha-ha... that was his good brother!

On the other hand, Mr. Qin had been forthcoming, constantly solving his doubts without any secrecy! By this comparison, Chu Feng made up his mind!

Chu Feng suddenly bowed deeply: "Mr. Qin, I am sorry to you!"

A trace of relief appeared in Qin Yu’s eyes, but he feigned confusion and asked, "Why so?"

"Mr. Qin, it’s like this... thus, the reputation of Exhibition Hall 52 might be ruined! It’s all my fault! I can come forward to admit my mistakes, exposing Hu Zhuoqing and An Jianming’s vile characters!"

Qin Yu laughed.

"Very good! Old Chu, now I am truly relieved. All my pains were not in vain! You need not worry too much; not only will the reputation of Exhibition Hall 52 not be destroyed, it will rise to greater heights!"

Chu Feng looked at Qin Yu, puzzled and unaware of why Qin Yu was so confident.

"Mr. Qin, about our stones..."

"Actually, I was prepared for what you mentioned; I already impersonated you and seized all the quality stones from Exhibition Hall 53! The Stone King we just carved also came from Exhibition Hall 53."

Qin Yu smiled slightly.

Whoosh... a large bead of sweat appeared on Chu Feng’s forehead!

Damn!

Mr. Qin already knew about this?

And he had already quietly arranged so many things?

So, it seems the reputation that will be ruined isn’t Exhibition Hall 52’s, but Exhibition Hall 53’s!

"Qin... Mr. Qin, what should I do?"

Having already shown his loyalty, Chu Feng was determined to stand by Qin Yu’s side.

"You don’t need to do anything, just act as usual, as if nothing has happened."

"Understood."

...

As Qin Yu and Chu Feng were unraveling the stones, the crowd at the entrance of Hall 52 grew larger, with Hu Zhuoqing and An Jianming fanning the flames within the crowd, non-stop.

"Hall 52 is courting disaster again, just when business was getting slightly better, they start passing off inferior products as good ones! Not a single piece with green bits has been revealed all morning! I think Hall 52 might as well close down!"

"Did the conscience of the owner of Hall 52 get eaten by a dog? They are obviously junk, yet they sell them to us as raw stones! And they sell at a price higher than other places, as if our money grows on trees?"

"Hall 52 must give us an explanation! Damn so-called premium hall, it’s clearly a junk hall! Refund! Refund!"

...

Seeing the situation getting out of control, Chi Yanyan hurried toward the stone-unraveling area, believing Qin Yu was the only one who could resolve the situation.

"Boss Qin, it’s bad, very bad, many people are asking for a refund, demanding an explanation from us!"

"Don’t panic, I’ve prepared for this. Let’s go out and take a look. No matter what tricks they play, just take them on!"

Qin Yu sounded very calm; he had just strolled through the hall unseen, and covertly placed the stones from the Purple Micro Star Ring onto the display stands.

This meant that now, every display in Hall 52 had three or four pieces of stone that could reveal green; Hall 52 was absolutely a premium hall!

"Okay!" Upon hearing Qin Yu’s words, Chi Yanyan felt a wave of relief wash over her.

Qin Yu followed Chi Yanyan toward the main entrance, only to see Liu Tian standing there like a lone hero in a pass against ten thousand, with a fierce gaze as he stared at the troublemakers!

"This is Feng’s Manor! Those who want trouble had better weigh their own capabilities! Our Boss Qin has an indissoluble bond with Miss Feng of the Feng family!"

Upon hearing Liu Tian’s words, Qin Yu’s face darkened, an indissoluble bond your face! His emotional life was already complicated enough! He had no desire to stir up any tabloid fodder.

Although Qin Yu was quite annoyed, he had to admit that Liu Tian’s words were effective, successfully suppressing the onlookers’ belligerence.

Seeing the crowd’s hesitation, Hu Zhuoqing stood out and coldly said, "Haha... indeed, your Boss Qin and the second Miss have a very indissoluble relationship, as he’s the first man who stood her up!"

What? Upon hearing this, the crowd suddenly relaxed! So Boss Qin is a real man, daring to stand up the second Miss? If so, the second Miss will certainly not support Hall 52!

"Manager Liu, you must give us an explanation, we are all regular customers of Hall 52! Please reveal the truth to us!"

"Exactly! Manager Liu, you should immediately open Hall 52! Unravel all the stones!"

...

Liu Tian’s forehead was covered in large beads of sweat, all the stone materials were junk, unravel what?

If everything is unraveled, wouldn’t it turn into a laughing stock for the raw stone exchange?

"Manager Liu, why are you silent? Are you feeling guilty? Do you know that your stones are all junk?"

Seeing a hint of panic in Liu Tian’s eyes, An Jianming stepped forward.

An Jianming’s remarks made Liu Tian’s face turn pale, while the other customers and owners became fervent!

"What’s going on? Are all the stones inside Hall 52 junk?"

"Haha... Chi Yanyan really never changes! Really dares to do anything!"

Liu Tian nearly died of frustration, Brother Yu, what are you doing?

Things are reaching a critical point, and you still have the mood to discuss stone gambling with Chu Feng?

We are done! It’s completely done!

The capital invested hasn’t even been recovered yet!

Just as Liu Tian was in utter despair, Qin Yu’s voice came out, "Manager An, you are slandering our Hall 52, do you dare to have a wager with us from Hall 52?"

A wager?

An Jianming looked up toward the source of the sound and, seeing Qin Yu, his face changed dramatically!

Damn!

Qin Yu, why has he come?

Somehow, An Jianming felt something was off, perhaps today is the day he falls?
