Chapter 849: Chapter 849 Birthday Gift (5)
"Old Bai! Wishing you a fortune as vast as the Silver Sea and longevity to rival the southern mountains!"
Before An Yiqing could finish speaking, a cold voice tinged with arrogance rudely interrupted her.
Everyone turned to look and, to their surprise, it was Guh Siyi dressed in a red gown.
Clad in a fiery red, floor-sweeping evening gown, with wine-red shawl hair casually draped over her shoulders, her makeup exquisite, she walked elegantly in her eight-centimeter crystal heels.
Following her, in a tender yellow dress, was Huang Yiyi, along with a young man in a black tuxedo.
The harmonious and cozy atmosphere was disrupted, and Old Master Bai furrowed his brows with displeasure, helplessly eyeing Guh Siyi.
"Miss Guh, what is this..."
"Old Bai, this is a gift I’ve carefully selected for you from Country Jin, and it will certainly be a feast for your eyes." As if she hadn’t noticed the dissatisfaction in Old Master Bai’s eyes, Guh Siyi slightly lifted her chin with confidence and nodded to the young man in black.
Before everyone could recover from the sudden change, the young man quickly unveiled the platter he was holding.
On the platter lay a simple, black wooden box, slightly bigger than a ring box, resting quietly there.
Guh Siyi smiled confidently and, amidst everyone’s breath-held anticipation, swiftly opened the box.
In an instant, light cascaded in all directions! Around the box, within a few meters’ radius, a lustrous light seemed to flow subtly.
Stunned, everyone gaped at the treasure in the box, radiating flowing light, and drew a sharp, cold breath!
This item... they had seen it before! They had seen it at the Xuandu Jade Stone Conference!
The treasure inside the box was none other than the Jade Spirit, a gem so rare it was hardly seen once in decades! Colorless, transparent, yet able to emit an extraordinary glow – the Jade Spirit!
Back at the Xuandu Jade Stone Conference, An Yiqing had also unearthed a piece of Jade Spirit and, moreover, she had sold it for tens of billions at the Yuyuanzhai exhibition!
Such a rare treasure, believed to prolong life, merely a glance was enough to remember it for a lifetime!
"Jade, Jade, Jade Spirit?! Miss Guh has a Jade Spirit as well?!" The first guest to regain his composure gasped and stuttered in disbelief.
"My goodness! Using the Jade Spirit for a ring, and one the size of a pigeon’s egg at that, isn’t Miss Guh’s gesture a bit too grandiose?!" Another guest exclaimed, nearly biting his own tongue in shock.
"Has the Jade Spirit become as common as cabbage these days? Why does it seem to be everywhere?" Another guest sighed, lowering his voice, "What do you think, with Miss Guh bringing out the Jade Spirit today, what can Miss An do? What kind of gift could possibly outshine Miss Guh’s?"
"What are you talking about? Haven’t you forgotten, Miss An unearthed such a huge Jade Spirit at the Xuandu Jade Stone Conference!"
"Come off it! Have you forgotten the last Yuyuanzhai exhibition? Miss An sold the Jade Spirit as jewelry. I did the math, after making those jewelry sets, Miss An has nothing left of the Jade Spirits she found! Now she’s definitely lost, with Miss Guh’s generous gesture. Sigh!"
The guests’ hushed whispers reached the ears of An Yiqing and others, unreservedly. While the persons concerned were one thing, Gu Tingting and Ruan Xue were worried sick.
"Ha ha ha! When Siyi acts, it’s truly extraordinary! Brother Bai, go ahead and accept it, it’s a token of my Siyi’s good will!" Guh Tian, who had not spoken until now, suddenly let out a proud laugh, oozing a sense of superiority with his tone.
Guh Tian did harbor doubts when it came to Guh Siyi being able to present a Jade Spirit. What’s more, to see such a rare treasure being given away so freely was like a knife cutting through his heart. However, watching everyone’s dumbfounded expressions turned all his heartache into pure satisfaction!
That’s right, satisfaction! He wanted everyone to know that, even compared to the gifts from the Gu and An families, nothing could match the grandeur of the Guh family!
