Chapter 137 - Bad Men Are the Ones Women Love Aren't They

Seeing Ye Haochen asking about his background in a cooperative manner, Boss Zheng couldn’t have been more energized.

Damn it, when I tell you, it’ll scare you to death.

“Let me tell you, you little punk, I, Zheng Yiguan, am backed by powerful people.

Even Old Master Xiao of the Xiao Group has to show me some respect…”

Watching Boss Zheng’s proud expression, Ye Haochuan sneered, “Holy crap, I thought you were something special.

Do you even know my background, kiddo?”

“What background do you have?

Aren’t you just a lowly school doctor?” Boss Zheng sneered.

Ye Haochuan’s face turned stern as he said, “Let me tell you, old man, I’m Ye Haochuan, known as the ‘Miraculous School Doctor.’ I’ve saved patients all over the world.

You think you’re the only impressive one?”

Was Secretary Lin’s daughter also saved by this guy?

Boss Zheng was stunned.

He had recently heard that the daughter of Secretary Lin, long plagued by a strange illness, had suddenly recovered.

He hadn’t expected that it was this pretty boy who cured her.

No wonder this pretty boy was so arrogant; he had the support of Secretary Lin.

However, Secretary Lin wasn’t exactly a big shot who could dominate the scene; he wasn’t afraid of him.

What mattered was the person backing Secretary Lin—Old Master Lin, a military figure who was not to be underestimated.

Still, Boss Zheng was not someone to be frightened easily.

With a huff, he said, “Young man, I, Zheng Yiguan, have seen more of the world than you have.

Don’t be too arrogant.

I’ve eaten more salt than you’ve eaten rice.”

Shit, using your old age as leverage and trying to pull rank, huh?

Upon hearing this, Ye Haochuan immediately wanted to punch the old fool and retorted, “Old thing, what storm haven’t I, Ye Haochuan, seen before?

Don’t you be too smug.

I’ve farted more than you’ve burped.”

Next to them, Xiao Haimie, Li Wenfeng, and Liu Qing’er all nearly laughed out loud.

This guy really had a knack for insulting people with such organized and impressive rhymes.

Seeing the mocking smile on Xiao Haimie’s face, Boss Zheng’s face turned extremely ugly, and he angrily said, “Kid, you are just a young school doctor, speaking so boldly.

You’re like a morning sun that fails to rise!”

Ye Haochuan immediately countered, “Old man, you’re a big boss and lack respect for your elders.

Despite your age, you’re still chasing after young women like an old cow eating tender grass, truly a setting sun—without—much—time!”

“You…”

Boss Zheng felt like vomiting blood upon listening; if not for He Yun holding him at that moment, the old man might have fainted on the spot.

Meanwhile, Xiao Haimie, Li Wenfeng, and Liu Qing’er were bursting with laughter.

This was truly entertaining.

Xiao Haimie especially, was laughing so hard that she was running out of breath and hung all over him.

Ye Haochuan grinned and reassessed Boss Zheng, who was so angry he was almost gasping for breath.

By this time, Boss Zheng had slowly regained his composure.

Seeing Ye Haochuan’s gaze on him, his eyes blazed with fury, wishing he could slash him thousands of times.

Just then, a middle-aged man arrived, pulling along a middle-aged woman, and stood next to the display case, examining the White Python Raw Stone.

Ye Haochuan noticed that the middle-aged man was dressed in a suit but looked unkempt, with stubble across his face and deep-set eyes, appearing somewhat dejected and disheartened.

As for the middle-aged woman, she was dressed like a wealthy lady, wearing a light blue dress with a V-neckline, emanating a mature aura all around her.

Despite her age, she still had a charming presence, particularly her well-maintained skin that looked plump and smooth.

At that moment, the middle-aged man stared at the White Python Raw Stone with excitement, while the middle-aged woman seemed reluctant and kept muttering.

Ye Haochuan roughly made out what she was complaining about: her husband’s company was in crisis and instead of finding a solution, he was delusionally hoping to strike it rich through this unreliable method and save the company.

However, the middle-aged man seemed to be turning a deaf ear, his expression also showing some rage.

Eventually, the middle-aged woman reluctantly transferred one million to him through Alipay.

But when the middle-aged man asked for more, she refused to budge.

Having no other choice, the middle-aged man took his five million in funds and selected an undervalued Raw Stone worth five million.

He then negotiated the price with the event staff, transferred the money, and arranged for the stone to be cut right there and then.

Soon after, the Stone Cutting Machine was brought over, the Stone-Cutting Master turned on the power, and started the machine.

As the roar of the machine echoed, many people in the exhibition hall gathered around.

Concerned for their respective ladies getting hurt by the crowd, both Ye Haochuan and Li Wenfeng each protected their own.

Xiao Haimie reveled in the considerate protection from Ye Haochuan, feeling blissful and snuggled into his broad embrace.

Little did she know, at that moment, Ye Haochuan, with the beauty in his arms, was lost in delightful fantasies, absolutely thrilled.

Hisss…

Listening to the noise of the Stone Cutting Machine, Xiao Haimie suddenly asked, “Haochuan, do you think this Raw Stone could reveal Jadeite when cut?”

Ye Haochuan had already observed it with his Perspective Eyes and shook his head, whispering, “This Raw Stone won’t produce anything.”

Xiao Haimie was about to respond when Li Wenfeng came over and said, “Nothing?”

Ye Haochuan nodded and gave him a look that said, ‘If you don’t believe me, just watch.’

After the first cut was complete, the Stone-Cutting Master was about to open the lid of the machine when the middle-aged man leaned in, his face tense, as he rubbed his eyes vigorously with a tissue.

The lid of the Stone Cutting Machine was opened.

Wearing gloves, the Stone-Cutting Master removed the excess material from the cut Raw Stone, revealing just a gray interior.

The middle-aged man’s face broke out in cold sweat—a clear sign that the Raw Stone was showing early signs of collapsing.

Seeing her husband’s expression, the middle-aged woman sighed.

But as the Stone-Cutting Master completed the second cut, the middle-aged man let out a cheer.

It turned out that the Raw Stone had indeed shown a leap in value: filled with promising green hues, fine texture, full of moisture, clear ground, and of very good quality.

Xiao Haimie, Li Wenfeng, and Liu Qing’er looked on with envy.

Xiao Haimie chuckled at Ye Haochuan, “Look at you, you just said there wouldn’t be any Jadeite.”

Ye Haochuan smiled and kept silent.

The real show was yet to come!
