Chapter 855: Chapter 855: Pregnant (1)

The hall was dead silent, so much so that even the dropping of a silver needle could be heard clearly. Everyone’s gaze was fixed on the resplendent jade plate, and their hearts remained stirred for a long while.

The plate was round, about the size of a common serving dish. Unlike ordinary plates, however, it was relatively thick, and in the center of the plate was an empty space. Its appearance resembled that of an enlarged coin.

Because it was made by a Jade Spirit, the body of the plate was completely transparent, emitting a brilliant radiance. The plate was delicately carved with auspicious patterns of pine trees and cranes representing longevity, and outlined with thin lines of light gold, which did not look vulgar at all. Instead, it was exceptionally majestic and full of charm.

"Girl Qing, this gift is far too precious. Grandpa Bai cannot accept it!" Old Master Bai carefully held the jade plate and shook his head in refusal.

"Grandpa Bai, just now you promised me that no matter how precious or humble the gift, you would accept it. What, in front of so many people, are you going to go back on your word?" An Yiqing pretended to be angry as she spoke.

"This..."

Old Master Bai looked at the radiant jade plate in his hand and found himself in a difficult position.

The conversation between An Yiqing and Old Master Bai brought everyone, who had been immersed in shock, back to their senses, and they all looked at An Yiqing on the stage as if she were a monster.

Everyone present knew the value of a Jade Spirit. Just the ring that Guh Siyi gave, the size of a pigeon’s egg, was worth nearly ten billion Xuanjin currency, and the plate An Yiqing gave was enough to destroy dozens of such pigeon’s eggs!

Which is to say, this plate, when converted into Xuanjin currency, would be worth at least seventy-eighty billion!

My God! Where on earth did this Miss An get such a large piece of Jade Spirit?! Wasn’t it said that she sold all her pieces at the last Yuyuanzhai exhibition?!

And, has she lost her mind or just made an impulsive decision, to give away a treasure worth nearly a hundred billion just like that?!

Little did they know, in the eyes of everyone else, what was an extremely expensive and rare treasure was, in An Yiqing’s heart, worth next to nothing; she still had a much larger piece soaking in the Spirit Spring of her Ancient Space!

"Grandpa, since the girl has given it, you might as well accept it. From now on, let’s treat it as the Bai Family heirloom and just pass it directly to me," Bai Yiming casually broke the awkward silence, revitalizing the atmosphere.

"You little rascal, what nonsense are you spouting?!" Father Bai smacked the back of Bai Yiming’s head hard and gave him a glare, "It’s not enough for you to always be coveting other things, now you’ve got your eye on this too, dreaming big!"

Bai Yiming chuckled and, seeing the atmosphere had lightened, said no more.

Who would have known, upon hearing Bai Yiming’s words, Old Master Bai’s eyes suddenly lit up.

"Right, you little rascal, you actually got something right today!" Old Master Bai slapped his thigh excitedly and then quickly made sure to hold the jade plate securely, "Your idea is not bad, little rascal. The rare treasure that Girl Qing gave will become the heirloom of our Bai Family!"

Boom—!

A burst of commotion erupted, and the guests in the hall were shocked, stirring with excitement.

"Uh... Dad, are you serious?" Father Bai wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling helpless about his father, who always did as he pleased.

"With so many people here, do you think I’m joking?" Old Master Bai glared, speaking with a strong voice, "The plate that Girl Qing gave is worth at least eighty billion. Whether it’s in the past or now, it is one-of-a-kind. To not make such a rare treasure into our Bai Family heirloom would be a waste of heaven’s gifts! Moreover, the Jade Spirit also has the benefits of extending one’s life and beautifying the complexion, which will be very beneficial for the descendants of our Bai Family in the future! This matter is settled then. Girl Qing, you have truly brought a blessing to Grandpa Bai!"
