The influential figures from Zhonghai, although not very knowledgeable about jade, clearly understood from Chen Baoshan’s words that the Wen Xinyu jade was indeed fake, not a genuine piece of Wen Xinyu jade. In that moment, their gazes inevitably turned towards Ye Luo, speculating how he knew about it.

Ye Luo had relied on his biggest trump card, the Clairvoyant Eye, to know this. Although he didn’t understand this so-called Wen Xinyu jade, he knew that liquid could not possibly exist within a piece of jade; this piece was obviously a fake.

"This is impossible, how can this be?"

As for Fang Yan, he spoke with a face full of disbelief, his eyes flickering with intense shock.

"Young Master Fang, it seems you’ve encountered a clever scammer. Keep this Wen Xinyu jade as a souvenir and be more careful in the future,"

Chen Baoshan handed the broken fake jade to Fang Yan, making the latter’s expression turn even uglier.

"Mr. Ye is truly impressive, his eyesight is even better than mine. I admire you,"

Chen Baoshan said to Ye Luo with a friendly smile on his face.

"Mr. Chen, you flatter me. I just happened to know,"

Ye Luo said, with a modest expression on his face.

Chen Baoshan then turned his gaze towards Ling Qingya and said, "Miss Ling."

"I’m sorry, Mr. Chen, but our Ling Corporation isn’t fortunate enough to partner with your Mingzhu Group,"

Ling Qingya said directly. Clearly, with the so-called Wen Xinyu jade exposed as a fake, the hope for the Ling Corporation to partner with the Mingzhu Group was slim, and this incident might even cause Mr. Chen to have a bad impression of the Ling Corporation.

"Miss Ling, what are you talking about? Since I’ve said I would consider partnering with the Ling Corporation, I will indeed consider it. Moreover, I’ve decided now to officially choose Mingzhou Group’s partner in Zhonghai as Ling Corporation,"

Chen Baoshan stated directly, leaving Ling Qingya somewhat unable to respond as she looked at him.

"Mr. Chen, this..."

"Although the Wen Xinyu jade is fake, Mr. Ye is a benefactor who has saved my life. Since you and Mr. Ye are family, the partnership naturally belongs to Ling Corporation. Moreover, I’ve decided that Mingzhu Group will start collaborating with the Ling Corporation in other areas too,"

Chen Baoshan’s words caused Ling Qingya’s emotions to surge, her eyes unconsciously giving Ye Luo several deeper glances, her gaze complex. As for Fang Yan, his expression was extremely grim and unsightly as he crushed the fake jade in his hand, his face showing the colors of dark jealousy.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for helping my fiancée’s company. Since you’re so generous, I naturally can’t be stingy. When I have time, I will offer acupuncture to Mr. Chen again, which I believe can cure your heart condition completely,"

Ye Luo said to Chen Baoshan.

"Really?"

Surprise flashed in Chen Baoshan’s eyes as he looked at Ye Luo.

"Of course," Ye Luo said with a confident expression.

"Very well, come over with Miss Ling some other day, and we can chat,"

Chen Baoshan said, his face full of a warm smile.

"Young Master Fang, where are you planning to go?"

Soon after, Ye Luo’s voice rang out again, his gaze directly on Fang Yan who was about to leave.

Fang Yan’s steps halted, his face turning exceedingly somber, his eyes casting a cold look towards Ye Luo.

"What else do you want?"

"You seem to have forgotten that we had a bet earlier, and according to that bet, I can ask you to do one thing,"

Ye Luo said, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth as he looked at Fang Yan.

Upon hearing Ye Luo’s words, Fang Yan’s expression darkened even more, his eyes flickering with a cold glint as he clenched his fists with a crunching noise.

"Say it, what do you want me to do."

"Actually, what I want you to do is very simple: from now on, disappear from in front of my fiancée. Don’t let me see you appearing like a fly in front of her again."

Ye Luo’s voice suddenly rose a few decibels, he hummed with a domineering face, and his temperament changed, carrying an arrogance that seemed to shock the heavens and earth, releasing a daunting aura.

For a moment, Ling Qingya felt the influence of Ye Luo’s powerful aura; she frowned lightly, and her eyes flickered with an unusual expression as she watched him.

"You..."

Upon hearing Ye Luo’s extremely humiliating remarks, Fang Yan’s face turned as ugly as if he had eaten shit, and after taking a few deep breaths, he suppressed the rage in his heart and turned to leave.

At this time, Chen Baoshan’s gaze turned towards Ling Qingya, saying:

"Miss Ling is fortunate to have such a capable fiancé like Mr. Ye."

Hearing Chen Baoshan’s words, Ling Qingya’s mood seemed a bit complex, and all those present gazed at Ye Luo with faces full of admiration.

Those who knew of Ye Luo’s identity as the Young Master of the Ye Family felt almost as if they didn’t recognize him at that moment, thinking he seemed like a completely different person.

The party soon ended, and the guests would clearly remember one name — Ye Luo. The scene at today’s party had left a deep impression on them, and as for Fang Yan, not only had he failed to achieve his objective despite spending five million, but he had also lost all face in the process.

Sitting in a black Bentley, Fang Yan had a gloomy expression on his face, and beside him sat an old man with gray-white hair who had been following him all along.

"I want him dead!"

Fang Yan’s eyes flickered with a sharp murderous intent as he said coldly.

"Young Master, how about I take care of it personally?" the old man offered.

"No need. Let the Wolf Guard handle it. Leave him just barely alive and bring him back to me — I want to vent my frustration thoroughly."

Fang Yan’s face was sinister, and his eyes glinted with a wolf-like chill.

As they left the Hongjin Hotel, Chen Baoshan said to Ye Luo, "Mr. Ye, we will talk another day."

"Sure, I’ll come to see you when I have time to help you with some acupuncture treatments," Ye Luo replied with a smile, nodding his head, and then, Chen Baoshan and the others left.

"Big Brother Ye, we’ll be going now. You were amazing today."

Liu Xiner looked at Ye Luo with a smiling face, then daringly kissed him on the cheek and quickly left, pulling Liu Shiyun with her.

"I want one too!"

Nie Wenling said, and kissed Ye Luo on his other cheek, leaving him feeling elated inside.

Brother’s just awesome — even the beauties are coming up to offer kisses.

As for Nie Yuntian and Liu XiaChuan, they both gave Ye Luo a smile and then left one after another.

"You performed well tonight."

Finally, Luo Jingxuan, who had been silent all evening, spoke up and looked at Ye Luo.

"Thanks for the compliment. I just realized tonight that my charm with the ladies isn’t too bad."

Ye Luo chuckled.

"Your performance tonight will probably make Ling Qingya see you in a new light, but you still need to continue to make an effort," Luo Jingxuan said indifferently.

Just then, a red Maserati stopped outside of the hotel doors, and the window rolled down to reveal Situ Luoyun’s enchanting face. She threw Ye Luo a flirtatious wink from across the hotel entrance.
