Chapter 107

Although 45,000 was just a drop in the ocean for Henry, he still felt upset that Janet was conned, especially when she was deceived because she had no idea of these things. Besides, she cherished her pride the most so she definitely wouldn’t let him or Young Master Mason pay for her.“Alright!” The shop owner clinched a few big deals today so he was over the moon now. Therefore, he nodded. “25,000 it is then. Please feel free to look around, Miss Jackson. I won’t sell any to you if you go back on your words!”“Look, it’s green!” someone suddenly shouted excitedly just when Janet was choosing the jade roughs. At once, the crowd that was initially standing and watching swarmed up.Even Janet left Mason and Henry behind while she curiously squeezed into the crowd to check it out. Needless to say, the owner of Jade Pavilion too squeezed into the crowd to see what was going on, abandoning his shop.Despite her eagerness to check the situation out, Janet was barricaded out by the crowd so she pouted her lips in disappointment. Upon seeing that, Mason stepped forward and grabbed her soft, delicate hand while politely saying to the others, “Excuse me, please let me in.”Everyone gaped at the handsome man and naturally made way for him. When they went in, Janet was so mesmerized that she forgot to let Mason’s hand go. She wasn’t even aware that they were holding hands. On the contrary, the man who was holding her hand tried his best to suppress the excitement in him. By just holding hands, he was overwhelmed with emotions.“I’ll have it for a million!” someone from the crowd shouted.Janet looked up and found that it was an old man with a beer belly and on the floor, the pile of jade roughs wasn’t as valuable as what she imagined because some only had a small green patch in the center. Lifting her red lips, she sneered, “How is this worth one million? Isn’t it obvious that he is a paid actor?”“Janet, are you interested in any of it?” Looking at the smile on Janet’s face, Henry thought that she must like it a lot.However, Janet shook her head. “That piece isn’t worth one million at all. There’s only a tinge of green on the surface. I bet the inside is not jade.”The shop owner walked toward Janet and persuaded her passionately, “Miss Jackson, did you see that? Even the corners are green. Why don’t you give it a try? Shall I help you choose something?” Janet shook her head. “I’m not an expert in this anyway so I’ll just choose any two. You don’t have to follow me around. After I pick them, I’ll come to you to open them.”“Alright then, I’ll go and serve the other customers. Just let me know when you’re done choosing the jade roughs.” The shop owner beamed with delight. He understood what Janet was thinking. After all, laymen like her didn’t like being followed around and preferred to pick their own jade roughs instead. Therefore, they usually picked the bad ones. Since Miss Jackson didn’t need his help, he’d rather save his time and effort in helping her. Anyway, she was just having fun. Besides, he had examined this pile of leftovers countless times and was sure that all of them were shoddy. It was impossible to get jades out of them.After the shop owner left, Janet crouched down and casually picked a jade rough while thinking, These jade roughs are indeed shoddy. According to my experience, it’s almost impossible to get jades from them. However, to seek further verification, she gathered all her energy to sense the familiar heat from the jade as if she could see through the surface of the stones and penetrate into the core. As expected, most of them were not jades.Looking at the girl’s serious face, Henry and Mason couldn’t help but simultaneously laugh softly, amused at how serious she was even if it was just for fun.At that moment, Janet put down the worthless stone and started to check on another one. From the start, Henry knew that this sly fox definitely dumped all the worthless stones here but since Janet was curious and it would make her happy, he decided to let her enjoy the fun.Just then, she casually picked up a black stone that was slightly larger than a fist. Her intuition and past experience told her that there was a 90% chance that the inside of this kind of black stone was jade. However, both amateurs and experts would think that these stones were just trash. Therefore, almost no one would buy them. When she picked it up, she felt a magical current flowing throughout her body. It was so comfortable as if she was holding crystals or jades. In fact, this feeling was even more mysterious than that. Upon sensing that, Janet was overjoyed. It had been a long time since she felt that way and it was indescribably comfortable.
