“Do you know how much this stone is worth?” A friend beside Wei Xiao asked.

Seeing Wei Xiao shake his head, his friend smiled and said, “Looking at the current situation, I reckon someone here will spend 50 to 60 million yuan to buy it. If it’s another auction, I think it will be possible to go for more than 100 million yuan. I heard that Old Mr. Shen even asked Wen Nian to confirm if she wants to bid for it. What’s the background of your ex-fiancee?”

Wei Xiao smiled and didn’t say anything, but his heart was already in turmoil. Just as Wen Nian had said, Old Mr. Shen was the one who knew stone. He had shocked everyone twice, and this time, he could even get a jade that was worth more than 100 million yuan. This couldn’t be just luck!

He secretly clenched his fists. After observing for a while, he was about to make a move.

Yang Ting looked at the jade in front of her with an excited expression. After all, she was also from an aristocratic family. How could she not know how much the jade in front of her was worth? However, when she thought about how she only had five million yuan, did she still have a chance of winning?

At this moment, she saw Jiang Chun’s figure. Thinking that she was also interested in Shen Jun and might be here to see him, Yang Ting quickly walked over.

Jiang Chun had been at the scene the entire time. She originally thought that Yang Ting would be able to deal with Wen Nian, or at least leave a bad impression on her in front of Old Mr. Shen. She did not expect Yang Ting to be so weak and Wen Nian had become the limelight at the auction!

“Jiang Chun? Why haven’t you made a move?” Yang Ting’s voice sounded from behind. Jiang Chun subconsciously lowered her cap.

Yang Ting looked at her disdainfully. “Do you think Shen Jun can see you standing in such a corner? You’re really here to see Shen Jun?”

Jiang Chun did not want to argue with her. She only said calmly, “My family has received an invitation to the auction. It’s not good if no one comes. I’m just here to make up the numbers.”

The stone that Old Mr. Shen had just won was taken out, and the auction went on to the next round. Wen Nian raised her sign again. Many people wanted to follow suit, but after a few rounds, the price had already climbed to eight million, and most people gave up.

Yang Ting felt her heart clench. “Jiang Chun, do you think Wen Nian will get some high-level jade this time?”

Jiang Chun bit her lip and didn’t say anything. She hated Wen Nian, who was in the limelight. Especially since Shen Jun’s grandfather was also gentle to her, she was even angrier.

This time, when the stone that Wen Nian had bid for was opened, everyone was even more shocked. They didn’t expect the quality of the two stones to be so good. Although they weren’t glass-type, Wen Nian had bid for top-grade ice-type jade this time. The value had increased by several times.

At this moment, many people at the scene were already secretly planning to bid for the raw stone with Wen Nian.

“Is Wen Nian really that amazing? Do all the celebrities in the entertainment industry know about jade?”

“I don’t know? Isn’t this too strange? But with just a few stones, Old Mr. Shen must have earned more than a hundred million, right?”

“I think it’s more than that. Do you think 100 million will be enough for that purple jade just now? The auction price will only be higher!”

“I heard from the person beside Wen Nian just now that the old master seemed to have asked her to choose for herself. Wen Nian was just bidding randomly.”

“Wen Nian is just a little girl. Her family isn’t that rich. How can she know about jade, let alone raw stones?”

“I think so too. Don’t blindly follow other people. Stone gambling is very risky!”

A few people discussed at once. Many people felt that Wen Nian could not be so capable. She must have been lucky. However, some people vaguely guessed that Shen Wei had asked her to bid for it. It was just that no one wanted to take the risk of millions or tens of millions.

Yang Ting secretly tugged at Jiang Chun’s sleeve. “Do you want to work together?”

Jiang Chun raised her eyebrows but did not say anything. However, her eyes signaled for her to continue.

Only then did Yang Ting say, “I’ll pay five million, and you’ll pay five million. When the stone is won, the profits will be split equally.”

“You know about raw stones?” Jiang Chun asked in confusion.

Although she was a child of the Xu family, she knew nothing about stone gambling. However, she knew that the stones that Wen Nian had won just now were worth a lot of money and had definitely made the Shen family a lot of money. However, she had never heard of anyone from the Yang family knowing this.

Yang Ting smiled and whispered into her ear, “Old Mr. Shen knows. He was the one who asked Wen Nian to bid for it. 10 million yuan for a small stone, and if it is worth 100 million yuan like the one just now and the profits are divided equally, what do you think?”

Jiang Chun knew how cunning Wen Nian was. She didn’t want to be so involved. She asked in confusion, “How do you know that Old Mr. Shen chose it and not Wen Nian?”

Yang Ting smiled and lowered her head. “She told Wei Xiao about it. She still has feelings for him..”
