Chapter 318: Chapter 318: All Teeth Knocked Out (7)

Some people with delicate minds saw all the twists and turns clearly, and all gave An Yiqing a thumbs up. Being able to think of such a perfect solution in such a short period of time, the girl had grasped the Guh Family’s weakness with the four words "fear public opinion" and also gained benefits. This girl simply had a Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart. Some with broader visions had already begun to take an interest in forging connections.

And the old man from the Nanjin Duan Family was one of them.

The old man from the Nanjin Duan Family was the elder who had stood up to Guh Siqing when she arrogantly claimed that no one dared to oppose the Guh Family. The Nanjin Duan Family is actually a descendant of the ancient Royal Family, and many strange and unusual legends have been passed down within the family. They had kept to themselves without getting involved in the strife of Xuandu City and managed their territory in Nanjin as impregnable as a fortress. The Duan Family primarily dealt in tea and jade, had good relations with Country Fei, and often did business together. Thus, the raw jade and the uncut jade that came out of the Duan Family were definitely the finest!

Old Master Duan, Duan Jingning, had a lifelong passion for jade, and because of this, he had become acquainted with Mao Tian in his younger years. After many years of friendship, they had become close friends. He was the recipient of another invitation from Ma Tianci for this Xuandu Jade Stone Conference.

From the first day, Duan Jingning had noticed An Yiqing. He had witnessed how Guh Siqing had snatched the raw jade from her, only for her to later spend two million to buy back the discarded stone, which turned out to be an Emperor Green jade worth twenty million. From that moment on, Duan Jingning had a hunch that there was something extraordinary about this girl. On the next day, he observed her as she breezed through the selection of raw jade materials, scouring all eight districts in just one day. This action puzzled Duan Jingning, and his curiosity about An Yiqing grew even stronger. It wasn’t until today, having witnessed her extract top-quality jade from five consecutive raw materials, that Duan Jingning became utterly convinced that An Yiqing was no ordinary person! The way she handled Guh Siqing had also taken him by surprise, and he began to consider forming a connection with her.

This girl hit the mark every time, and just the skill of jade gambling alone made Duan Jingning feel a sense of kinship with her.

Thus, he whispered a few words to Ma Tianci, who looked at him in surprise, then nodded.

As soon as the matter with Guh Siqing had been resolved, An Yiqing was quickly surrounded by people. Those who wanted to flatter her, those who sought to make connections or collaborations, all took this opportunity to show their faces. An Yiqing, with a smile on her face, deftly handled everyone with a few sentences, before preparing to leave.

But before she left, she wanted to say goodbye to Ma Tianci.

"Old Ma," An Yiqing slowly approached Ma Tianci, visibly surprised to see Duan Jingning behind him, then gave a friendly nod.

She remembered the old man from the Nanjin Duan Family.

As soon as he saw the girl, Ma Tianci’s wrinkled face blossomed into a splendid chrysanthemum-like smile. He said affectionately to An Yiqing, "Xiao Qing, you really didn’t disappoint me this time. The old man’s eyes have been truly opened! Wonderful! It’s simply too wonderful! Girl Qing, it seems I wasn’t wrong about you. You’re becoming more and more of a pleasant surprise!" Ma Tianci beamed at An Yiqing, sighing continuously, oblivious to Duan Jingning glaring at him from behind.

Duan Jingning, helpless as he watched his old friend forget his advice, reached out and quietly poked Ma Tianci in the lower back.

Ma Tianci, who had been chatting with An Yiqing, stiffened. He remembered Duan Jingning’s advice. He then turned, revealing Duan Jingning behind him, and said amiably to An Yiqing, "Here, Girl Qing, let Grandpa Ma introduce you to an elder. This is the Family Head of the Nanjin Duan Family, Duan Jingning."

Taken aback, An Yiqing then grinned at Duan Jingning and said, "Elder Duan, hello. Thank you for your help on the first day."
