"Miss Turner, you may not understand the world of stone gambling."
"Even if it's not a whole piece of jade, it wouldn't be this small."
"My grandfather and I have been in the stone gambling world for so many years and have never seen jade smaller than a fist."
"This stone of yours is already worthless. Try with another one."
Leia and Hattie were both infuriated by such "sincere" advice.
Selena ignored Aurelia and just said to the young man who was cutting the stone, "Continue."
The young man met Selena's eyes and was shaken. He immediately lowered his head and continued cutting.
Aurelia pursed her lips when she saw that Selena did not accept her suggestion.
The noble families allied with the Soo family naturally would not miss such a good opportunity to ridicule the Turner family.
"It's only this small, and Miss Turner still won't give up. We should praise Miss Turner for having thick skin, shouldn't we?"
"Miss Turner, I think you should give up. We all know you don't understand stone gambling, and if you don't listen to advice, it won't just be yourself who suffers, but your whole family..."
"If you don't understand and still won't listen to Miss Bennett's advice, you really don't know what's good for you..."
As Selena's stone shrank to the size of an egg, everyone gave up and turned their attention to Aurelia.
Aurelia was about to direct her people to put her second piece of stone on the cutting table with a winner's smile when she suddenly heard an excited voice.
"It's out! It's out...!"
Aurelia was taken aback.
Everyone who had given up on Selena and turned their attention to Aurelia was also stunned.
What's out?!
They all subconsciously turned their attention to the source of the sound, and saw the young man who was helping Selena cut the stone, his face full of excitement.
"It's out! It's out! It's...!"
Because the stone was now the size of an egg, no one could see what had come out of it.
But when they heard the young man's words, they all had the same thought in their minds: Did Selena's stone really produce jade?!
Aurelia frowned slightly. Obviously, she didn't expect this situation, but she remained calm. Even though Selena's stone was only a tiny fragment, it couldn't compare to the one she had. Selena was still a joke!
"What's out? Can you explain it clearly?" Aurelia asked.
"Indeed, heaven favors the Turner family, but well, it is so small," the young man said amidst the scornful and curious taunts of the crowd.
Finally, he carefully solved the stone. He held the egg-sized jade in his hands and walked excitedly towards Selena. "Miss Turner, it's... a flower stone."
As soon as the words "flower stone" were spoken, the scene suddenly fell silent. Aurelia, who had lowered her head to pick up her second stone, turned around in disbelief. Nicholas was also surprised. Everyone's gaze was fixated on the young man's hand.
He held a white, egg-shaped jade, which was filled with floral patterns. From a distance, it looked like a white flower was sealed inside the ice jade.
Unbelievable eyes fell on the "egg", and their eyeballs almost popped out.
"Flower stone, top-grade ice-jade," someone said.
"Still with flowers on it," another added.

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
From the beginning of the story to page 148, the plot is just going in circles about fighting. So ridiculous and waste of time to read! I have no patience for these kind stories. Be more creative if you’re planning to write a book/story!!!...
Beautiful story...
