Chapter 386: Chapter 386: I’m Not Worthy, Mr. Bo’s Jade
What the hell!
The crowd was holding hands, the ones above found the ones below to be in the way, while those below complained about the obstruction to their view, leading to a mass of hands grappling above the jade pendant.
Yet the jade pendant remained motionless, untouched by even a leaf.
Having been pushed out of the crowd, Gu Shiyin finally managed to steady herself, raising her eyes to see the scene, and she caught her breath in astonishment.
This, this is too incredible.
Could it be that Zuzi placed some kind of mechanism inside the glass case?
Chu Qiaoen, hands on hips, looked indignant: "I don’t believe that county girl’s nonsense for a second, I want to try it myself!"
With that, she pushed her way into the crowd, reaching for the jade pendant.
However.
Like everyone else, her hand couldn’t even touch the jade.
Thinking she was smart, she suddenly came up with an idea, grabbing the bottom edge of the glass case with both hands, trying to lift the entire base up.
But to her surprise, even the whole base of the glass case seemed to be glued firmly to the table, unable to move an inch.
Chu Qiaoen pulled her hand back as if it were burned, shouting loudly: "Aunt, Aunt, come and look, this is really spooky!"
Gu Shiyin pursed her lips.
Because of Chu Qiaoen’s intense invitation, she only "reluctantly" moved to squeeze into the crowd.
This is Bao Gucheng’s jade pendant.
Others may not be able to get it.
But she... perhaps she could?
Gu Shiyin’s heart sped up a bit. She finally squeezed to the front row and, in front of the people about to give up, she raised her arm.
Even in such a chaotic situation, her movements remained quite elegant.
Her fingers approached the jade pendant gracefully, like pinching an orchid.
Just as she was about to touch the jade pendant...
Suddenly, an invisible force collided with her fingers, not only bouncing her entire hand away but also causing her fingertips to ache!
The elegant posture could no longer be maintained; she recoiled in horror, taking two steps back, her eyes wary: Could Mr. Bo’s jade pendant truly only be moved by its owner?
Could it be that Zuzi stole the entire glass case to auction it off?
No one at the scene was able to obtain the jade pendant.
Not even Gu Shiyin.
Everyone tried many times to grab it, but ultimately had to admit they didn’t have the ability to take advantage.
How frustrating!
Manager Qiu Guosheng was the most frustrated of all, thinking if the jade truly recognized its owner, how could he auction it, and how could he earn his commission?
Suddenly he remembered, he had witnessed Zuzi taking out the jade pendant and placing it in the glass case... his gaze grew a bit more reverent, and he humbly asked: "Miss Xi, your jade, might we ask you to personally... let it be touchable by the buyers, perhaps?"
Zuzi stepped forward, her red lips slightly curving: "I can."
Her slender arm reached for the jade pendant, and with a casual pick of her fingertips, the jade pendant obediently dropped into her fair and soft palm.
The whole hall watched in disbelief, eyes wide and not blinking!
The jade truly recognized its owner.
Zuzi toyed with the jade pendant, fortunately, she had protected it, not letting Xiao Chenger’s aura be tainted by those claws; the spiritual energy remained intact.
The deep green jade contrasted beautifully with her skin as white as snow, leaving everyone speechless again, unable to utter a single sound.
Gu Shiyin felt her throat dry and uncomfortable.
She pursed her lips, standing next to Yin Hu, and softly sighed: "I’m not worthy, maybe Mr. Bo’s jade really has a special connection with that girl..."
Yin Hu, hearing her gentle sigh, felt an overwhelming sense of oppression, thinking how could Miss Gu, such a figure, be played around by this little girl.
The jade was indeed exactly like the one in Mr. Bo’s photo.
He couldn’t help but blurt out—
