Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1319

The risks of rock gambling were too significant.

It was either heaven or hell.

One might become filthy rich overnight because of an original jade rock, but one might also fall into a bottomless abyss overnight.

Xyla Quest and Xavier York’s voices were very soft.

However, an old man with a wrinkly face at the table behind them could understand what these two were talking about from the movements of their mouths as well as bits and pieces of what he heard.

The old man couldn’t resist looking at Xyla. “Are you stupid? This is good stuff. You really have poor judgment this time…

“From every perspective, this material looks great. Can’t you see that a random cut already yielded surfaces covered in jade?

“There is even such great horsetail pine on the outside… If another cut is made, and the quality inside isn’t like this surface, I’ll change my surname to yours… You really are blind,” the old man continued to speak. His eyes were full of spite.

He felt that Xyla was pretending to be knowledgeable despite not knowing much…

A few sentences from the old man instantly caught the attention of Xyla and many people around him.

Xyla helplessly smiled. “I believe in my intuition…”

Xyla felt that she was already speaking very softly with Xavier.

She had no idea how this old man managed to overhear them.

His attitude made Xyla feel extremely annoyed.

The old man sneered. He still had a spiteful look in his eyes. “Rock gambling doesn’t depend on intuition…”

Xyla was too lazy to debate with someone like him.

She turned around and looked at the stage.

“Ms. Quest… You really have misjudged this time… This old man is a huge personality in the rock gambling scene… He had never been wrong in this lifetime…”

“Yeah, Ms. Quest… If you don’t bid for it, you’ll regret it…”

A few people enjoying the show couldn’t resist speaking up too.

After that, the bidding continued.
