The Girl Who Married a Tycoon Husband After Disfigurement

Chapter 31

Everyone looked at Ling Yue in disbelief.

Ling Meng covered her own stinging hot face, tears flowing down unceasingly, "You hit me." How dare she? Only she herself had the right to hit Ling Meng before.

Ling Yue looked completely innocent, "Didn't you say that as long as I forgave you, you would let me hit and scold you however I wanted? I'm just following your wishes, you won't get angry, right? Or were you just saying it without meaning it?"

"You..." Ling Meng gritted her teeth so hard they almost shattered. Of course she was just saying it, who would have thought that she would really hit her.

"But did you have to hit so hard?" Song Yanxue glared fiercely at Ling Yue and walked to Ling Meng's side, softly comforting her in a low voice.

Song Ziyuan's eyes were filled with laughter as he secretly gave Ling Yue a thumbs up.

Ling Yue smiled back and turned to check on the jade stone cutting.

Zhou Mucheng looked at Ling Yue with complicated eyes. She had really changed a lot, changing so much that he found her a bit unrecognizable. The her from before wouldn't dare to say a harsh word, let alone hit someone. She was always like a transparent person following him, without the slightest sense of presence. But the current her had become vivid and lively. If her face hadn't been burned, she should be dazzlingly bright now.

Ling Meng glared at Ling Yue's back resentfully, the anger in her heart spreading and growing. She would definitely get back at this cheap woman a hundred times, a thousand times over. She wanted to make this bitch suffer miserably, groveling at her feet like a dog begging for mercy.

Feeling the gaze behind her, Ling Yue's mouth curved up slightly in disdain. She knew very clearly what kind of person Ling Meng was, but she was not the original owner. How could she possibly let Ling Meng make trouble for her as she pleased?

"Crack!" With a sound, the jade stone on the machine was finally cut open.

"It's green!" Ma Tao saw a flash of vibrant green and quickly poured a scoop of water over it. As the water droplets slid down, the green became extremely concentrated. He shook with excitement, "It's actually glass-type imperial green jadeite, heavens!" He had been in the jade business for several years, but this was the first time he had ever cut open glass-type imperial green jadeite. What a pity it didn't belong to him.

Ma Tao looked at Ling Yue enviously. Her luck was just too good. Of course he didn't think Ling Yue understood gambling on stones. There weren't many people in China who played with gambling stones nowadays. Even immortals would have a hard time appraising an inch of jade.

Ling Yue walked over, squatted down, and examined the jadeite. Although only a hint of emerald green had emerged from this piece of jadeite, it was translucent without any impurities, an extremely top grade piece.

"Do you want to keep cutting?" Ma Tao's voice even carried a hint of trembling. This piece of jadeite had emerged from his booth, and was also the first piece today. His business today would definitely be very hot. After all, who didn't want a good omen?

Ling Yue nodded slightly, "Continue."

The machine started up again.

The onlookers around them all gazed at Ling Yue with envy and jealousy.

"This is the first time I've seen glass-type imperial green jadeite, it's so beautiful."

"That color, that quality, it's so mesmerizing. I'd love to have a piece like that."

"Her luck is just too good, to actually cut open glass-type imperial green jadeite."

"Young miss, are you selling this jadeite?"

"Sell it to me. I'll definitely give you a satisfactory price."

Everyone looked towards Ling Yue, their eyes filled with thick anticipation. Who wouldn't want glass-type imperial green jadeite?

Ling Yue swept an indifferent gaze over the crowd, her tone flat and emotionless, "Selling, highest bidder gets it." She wanted the spiritual energy contained in the jadeite, and had no interest in the jadeite itself.

"I bid 10 million."

"20 million!"

"50 million!"

"..."

The price kept rising.

Watching this scene, Ling Meng's jealous eyes turned red. This should have been hers. How could that cheap woman deserve it? She would tell her dad and have him order that cheap woman to hand over the jadeite to the family. Then she would have her dad make her a set of jadeite jewelry.

Thinking of this, Ling Meng was extremely excited, as if the jadeite already belonged to her. She walked to Ling Yue's side and spoke in a commanding tone, "I have something to say to you."

Ling Yue glanced indifferently at Ling Meng, her tone icy cold, "I don't want to listen."

Ling Yue's contemptuous attitude made Ling Meng want to walk over and slap her in the face. Taking a deep breath, she said, "Ling Yue, I'm giving you one chance. As long as you hand over this jadeite to the family, I'll go beg my dad to let you come back to the family." Of course she was just deceiving this cheap woman. She had finally driven her out of the Ling family, how could she possibly let her step back into the Ling family?

"Who cares." Ling Yue looked at Ling Meng as if she were an idiot, "Keep your distance from me in the future. My hand might get itchy."

Ling Meng hurriedly took a step back. The current Ling Yue was inscrutable to her. She really would hit people when she said she would hit them. After all, she had already been slapped once, and her face still stung.

Her gaze turned to the jadeite that everyone was fighting over. Ling Meng's eyes were full of certainty that it would be hers.

She went to the side to call Ling Tianzheng. Her dad's words were law to Ling Yue. As long as her dad called, Ling Yue would certainly obediently hand over the jadeite.

By this time, the price of the jadeite had already skyrocketed to 120 million, and fewer and fewer people were bidding.

"130 million!" An elderly voice rang out from behind the crowd. A dignified old man dressed in traditional clothes slowly emerged from behind the crowd.

"Older Tang!"

Seeing the old man, the crowd greeted him one after another. Older Tang held considerable sway in the jadeite world. Fifty percent of the rough stones he fancied could produce jadeite.

"Young friend, could you sell this jadeite to me?" Older Tang walked up to Ling Yue with a smile.

Ling Yue gave a faint smile. "Highest bidder gets it." She had said so earlier, naturally she wouldn't go back on her own word.

"Alright." Older Tang looked towards the crowd. "Anyone else want to bid?"

The crowd looked at each other speechlessly, and no one spoke up.

"Young friend, you see." Older Tang smiled as he looked at Ling Yue.

Ling Yue nodded slightly. "Then this jadeite belongs to you."

"Wait a minute!" Ling Meng walked to Ling Yue's side and held out her phone to Ling Yue. "Dad wants to talk to you."

Ling Yue frowned and glanced coldly at Ling Meng. Her tone was frigid. "I don't have a dad."

"You!" Ling Meng hadn't expected Ling Yue to be so audacious as to deny even Ling Tianzheng.

On the other end of the phone, Ling Tianzheng was also startled. He could tell the voice belonged to Ling Yue, but that voice contained a coldness and ruthlessness that he had never heard before.

"Older Tang, Miss Ling, let's go to my booth to handle this." Ma Tao walked up with a smile and brought the two to his booth.

Song Ziyuan hurried to follow.

Zhou Mucheng hesitated for a moment before catching up. He felt like he had never truly known Ling Yue at all.

Ling Meng complained to Ling Tianzheng for a while. Seeing everyone had left, her face flushed red with anger, she almost smashed the phone.

"Let's go over too." Song Yanxue pulled Ling Meng towards the gem show venue. Ling Yue today had also surprised her somewhat, completely different from her previous impression.
