The old man was already very upset because one-half of the original jade rock turned out to be trash.
Now, this group of people was still getting on his nerves. He felt extremely annoyed!
Xyla Quest had already anticipated the old man’s attitude.
She still didn’t look up. Instead, she slowly put down the cup of tea in her hands. After that, she gently circled her finger around the edge of the teacup.
After that, the old man looked at Xavier York. “Continue cutting it open… I don’t believe in superstitions! I also refuse to believe that someone in this room is 100% accurate.”
After saying that, he turned to look at Xyla coldly once again…
When Xyla unintentionally looked up, she happened to see the old man looking at her.
She still didn’t respond.
Instead, she elegantly leaned against the chair behind her as she silently looked at the uncut half of the original jade rock.
Silently, she waited for Xavier to switch on the cutting machine.
Xavier helplessly glanced at the old man. After that, he quickly placed the other half of the original jade rock on the cutting machine. “How would you like it cut?”
“Naturally, we’ll do it the same way as we did before…” The old man said.
Xavier then picked up a black marker pen and quickly drew a line down the center of the other half of the original jade rock. After that, he switched on the cutting machine and carefully held the original jade rock by its edge as he started cutting it…
Everyone below the stage held their breath once again as they looked at the large screen.
Everyone was looking forward to the results from this cutting process.
Xavier was also looking forward to it.
The old man was even more anxious.
He didn’t even dare to make a sound, and his eyes were fixed on the half piece of original jade rock…
Soon, the other half of the original jade rock was completely cut.
Xavier carefully pulled the two cut surfaces apart.
This time…
Like the one before, there was nothing inside…
The old man was thoroughly dumbfounded.
