"A masterpiece of divine craftsmanship! Truly a divine masterpiece!"
A moment later, when Master Wang frowned, the Qin family members watched him with nervous apprehension.
However, as Master Wang's exclamations of awe and wonder filled the air, smiles bloomed on the Qin family members' faces!
"Boss Mei, after my meticulous observation and appraisal, this Purple Crystal Jade Pendant is genuine! I can guarantee this with my personal integrity!"
A moment later, Master Wang carefully placed the Purple Crystal Jade Pendant back into its box and looked up at Boss Mei as he spoke.
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
At this very moment, Zhou Chao suddenly stood up from his chair and roared loudly.
Swish! Swish!
Hearing Zhou Chao's angry outcry, everyone in the hall turned to look at him in unison!
Especially Boss Mei, who wore a look of displeasure!
"Master Wang has staked his reputation on it, do you think your judgment is superior to Master Wang's?"
Boss Mei's gaze fell upon Zhou Chao, and he spoke in a deep voice.
After all, he was a tycoon in the city. Not to mention in Xiling, even in Jiangdong, he was an influential figure.
Therefore, when Boss Mei spoke, his imposing presence sent shivers down the spines of everyone present!
"Master Wang, I... I didn't mean that..."
Zhou Chao's face turned pale, and he stammered.
"Master Wang, you don't doubt your eyesight, but how do you explain this jade pendant being so new?"
Before Boss Mei could speak, Zhou Chao gritted his teeth and turned his gaze back to Master Wang, speaking with forced composure.
"That's right, Master Wang, this jade pendant does seem a bit new... it doesn't look like it's from the Qin Dynasty, centuries ago."
Boss Mei was also puzzled, so he cast a questioning glance at Master Wang.
"This... it does seem rather new. This is also something I can't quite fathom. Perhaps it was just preserved very well..."
Master Wang's gaze returned to the Purple Crystal Jade Pendant, his face etched with confusion.
Just moments ago, while appraising it, he had also noticed how new the Purple Crystal Jade Pendant appeared.
But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't figure out what was going on!
Afterward, he shook his head and added, "However, even though I don't understand how this jade pendant was preserved so pristinely, I can confidently say that this jade pendant is one hundred percent genuine..."
After speaking, Master Wang did not linger and turned back to his seat!
Wow!
The entire venue erupted into a clamor after Master Wang finished speaking!
"Hahaha! You Zhou family brat, even Master Wang says so. What else do you have to say, you lying scoundrel?"
Old Master Qin burst into hearty laughter, immediately pointing at Zhou Chao and questioning him angrily!
"You Qin family..."
Zhou Chao's face turned ashen, and he was about to retort with resentment.
"Enough! Both of you, quiet down!"
At this moment, Boss Mei suddenly spoke!
His expression also turned cold, and he reprimanded them sternly!
Swish! Swish!
As Boss Mei spoke, the entire scene fell silent. No one dared to speak further.
"This matter ends here. Old Master Qin, this Purple Crystal Jade Pendant..."
Boss Mei looked at Old Master Qin and spoke slowly.
"Just let it go like this? That won't do!"
Before Boss Mei could finish his sentence, a cold sneer interrupted him!
Swish!
Boss Mei's expression changed abruptly, turning cold. His gaze fell upon Ye Fei, who had spoken.
"What? Do you have an opinion about what I said?"
Boss Mei's voice was icy. Anyone could tell he was angry!
"Boss Mei, Boss Mei..."
Seeing this, Old Master Qin's face turned ashen in an instant!
He immediately tried to smooth things over and signaled Qin Bing to quickly restrain Ye Fei!
After all, it would be best if this matter concluded now!
This would not only slap the Zhou family in the face but also save Boss Mei's face.
If things escalated too much, they might anger Boss Mei and end up with nothing, a net loss.
"Of course, I have an opinion! Our Qin family made a bet with the Zhou family earlier, and this brat lost, but he hasn't honored the wager yet. How can we just let it go!"
"Hey! Brat, what are you looking at? I'm talking to you! Remember the bet just now? If you lose..."
Ye Fei showed no fear, acting like a devil-may-care rebel.
He merely glanced at Boss Mei, then his gaze fell upon Zhou Chao, and he spoke with a cold smile.
Swish! Swish!
The expressions of everyone in the hall changed instantly.
They looked at each other, exchanging bewildered glances!
Where did this arrogant young man come from? They had never seen him before!
"Heh heh! Boss Mei has already said that this matter is over... What can you do to me?"
Zhou Chao's gaze fell on Ye Fei, and he suddenly chuckled victoriously.
He wore an expression that dared Ye Fei to do something if he was unhappy.
In his opinion, even with a hundred times the courage, Ye Fei wouldn't dare to lay a hand on him, let alone cripple him, in front of Boss Mei!
Moreover, if this continued, Boss Mei would surely vent all his anger on the Qin family.
At that time, the Qin family's quota for the city... hehe!
The thought made Zhou Chao grin sinisterly.
"No one in this world can renege on my debt!"
Ye Fei spoke!
When everyone thought Ye Fei wouldn't dare to act, he made his move!
"Animal, you dare!"
Boss Mei, seated there, watched as Ye Fei so blatantly disregarded him. He slammed the table and stood up, roaring an accusation!
At this moment, Boss Mei was furious! Truly furious!
How dare someone in this mere Xiling City disregard him?
"Damn it, who are you calling an animal? You think I wouldn't dare?"
*Crack!*
Ye Fei didn't stop his actions. With a ghost-like agility, he was beside Zhou Chao!
The next moment, before Zhou Chao could even react, an arm instantly lost all sensation.
Then, the sound of bone snapping echoed in everyone's ears!
"Ah! Ah! My arm! My arm!"
Only then did Zhou Chao feel the tearing pain in his arm and cry out miserably.
"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"
The onlookers finally reacted with delayed understanding.
When they saw that Ye Fei had actually crippled Zhou Chao's arm, they all gasped in disbelief!
"You beast, you dare to disregard me like this! Aren't you afraid I'll make your Qin family vanish from Xiling City entirely?"
Boss Mei was enraged, his chest heaving violently.
He glared at Ye Fei with murderous intent, threatening him in a furious voice.
Swish! Swish!
Hearing Boss Mei's words, the Qin family members' faces turned extremely pale!
They knew that Boss Mei's words were not mere bluster!
Furthermore, he possessed the absolute power to carry them out!
"Are you threatening me? Sorry, I, this young master, fear... threats the least!"
*Crack!*
Ye Fei smiled coldly, completely unfazed!
Even under Boss Mei's furious gaze, Ye Fei ruthlessly kicked and shattered Zhou Chao's knee, crippling his leg!
"Ah! Ah! You beast! My leg... my leg..."
Zhou Chao's screams became even more piercing. His gaze fell upon Ye Fei, as if looking at a demon!
At this moment, Zhou Chao could never have imagined that Ye Fei would actually cripple him right in front of Boss Mei!
Was this bastard insane?
Didn't he know that his actions would bring utter disaster upon the entire Qin family?
"Good, good, good! Your Qin family is very good! Truly very good!"
At this point, Boss Mei laughed in his rage, uttering the word "good" several times in succession!
Then, his gaze suddenly fell upon the Qin family members, shifting his anger onto them.
