“Okay,” Xyla Quest said.“I’ve already made breakfast. There’s the beef sandwich that you like, sunny side-ups, and strawberry milk. Come down and eat…” Stanley Batton said.Xyla nodded obediently. After that, she reluctantly let go of Stanley. She held his hand and walked down the stairs together.Due to the level advancement of her X-ray vision, she was in a very cheerful mood.***The next day, at one o’clock in the afternoon, Xyla arrived at Times Antique Store ahead of the agreed time.Once she arrived, Xavier York brought her to a small auction house in Riverdale Market near Times Antique Store.There was only a single floor in the auction house, and the area was only slightly over a hundred square meters.When they arrived, the auction hadn’t officially begun yet.Although that was the case, there were already many people at the venue.Each table was occupied at maximum capacity.At one glance, Xyla could see many familiar faces…They were basically owners of antique

“This looks like a genuine antique from the first glance. Young lady, you’ve got it wrong this time…”“Yeah… As an expert in this field, I can tell right away that this is genuine…”“This jade pendant looks exactly like something from the sixteenth century… Stop making nonsense up.”“I don’t know how this person managed to get lucky twice by profiting from bargain antiques… Was it all based on luck?”The people who spoke all looked at Xyla Quest with varying degrees of contempt.Xyla felt extremely annoyed by what she saw and heard.“You guys… Could it be a fake antique? I think Xyla is pretty amazing…”“I suspect that it is fake too…”Soon, other different voices could be heard.Various voices overlapped each other and repeatedly resonated in her eardrums. It was making Xyla’s head buzz.Right then, the bald man felt provoked.He looked at Xavier York. “How about this, Mr. York… You’ll get on stage to verify if this is genuine or fake. It’ll stop those people from saying th

“But… This is my family’s heirloom… It’s been passed down for generations…” The bald man said.He really was going to cry!“I can only say that your ancestors bought a fake antique… But they simply didn’t know it… This fake antique was made to look genuine. Even an expert would find it difficult to see through its flaws…“That’s why your ancestors can’t be blamed either…” Xavier York said.At this moment, Xavier’s admiration toward Xyla Quest increased yet again…Although Xyla was young, she was even better than those who have worked in the antique industry for decades that she identified this jade pendant as a fake.She had a lot going for her!The bald man didn’t say anything. Instead, he kept nodding…“About that, who made a promise earlier? Didn’t he say he’d do something if this were a fake piece?”“Oh, dear. I think he has to do a handstand here or something, doesn’t he? Where is it better to do it? I think he should do it on stage. Isn’t that a good idea?”“Why are you

The second auction item was taken out.The brief interlude had come to an end.Everything got back on track.In the time that followed, several fake items were displayed…In fact, it could be seen from a single glance that these were fake items. Xyla Quest wasn’t interested at all…The others were also not very excited.Toward the end of the auction, the beautiful auctioneer smiled as she started saying, “Next up, I’d like to present to you the fiftieth auction item…”She didn’t say what it was…She even used a cliffhanger to draw attention.Approximately one minute later, three handsome employees in tuxedo suits walked up the stage with a huge display stand.Two pieces of cut original jade rocks were placed on the display stand. The men walked up the stage…Both surfaces of the cut jade rock were full of green jade…From its tone, one could tell that it was high-class glassy imperial green jade.These two surfaces were clearly a single piece of jade material cut into two

The risks of rock gambling were too significant.It was either heaven or hell.One might become filthy rich overnight because of an original jade rock, but one might also fall into a bottomless abyss overnight.Xyla Quest and Xavier York’s voices were very soft.However, an old man with a wrinkly face at the table behind them could understand what these two were talking about from the movements of their mouths as well as bits and pieces of what he heard.The old man couldn’t resist looking at Xyla. “Are you stupid? This is good stuff. You really have poor judgment this time…“From every perspective, this material looks great. Can’t you see that a random cut already yielded surfaces covered in jade?“There is even such great horsetail pine on the outside… If another cut is made, and the quality inside isn’t like this surface, I’ll change my surname to yours… You really are blind,” the old man continued to speak. His eyes were full of spite.He felt that Xyla was pretending to be
