My Unpopular Neighbor Girl Has Hidden Identities

Chapter 276: 275, Admit Defeat Chapter 276: 275, Admit Defeat Li Tianyu let out a laugh and felt a sigh of relief inside, “Don’t jump to conclusions yet, wait until the rough is cut. If I win this time, at least I’ll have saved face and won’t be the butt of jokes.”

Liu Xin smiled carelessly, “Mr. Li is right, let’s wait for the results. It’s too early to celebrate; it’d be embarrassing if things turned around.”

“Master, let them be happy for a little while, and wait until the results come out. They probably won’t be able to laugh then, hahaha…” Li Tianyu’s apprentice boasted proudly, walking towards their stone cutting booth.

Li Tianyu and Zhang Yun exchanged a knowing smile and walked to the stone cutting booth as well. They were eager to find out what quality of jade awaited inside their rough, looking forward to the moment Liu Xin and his group’s expressions would change.

After waiting about ten minutes, their rough was finally cut open.

Upon seeing the results, Li Tianyu quickly squatted down to inspect, but his face changed the next moment, “How could this be?”

Hearing this, Zhang Yun and Li Tianyu’s apprentice also hurried over and squatted down. Upon seeing the cut edges of the rough, their expressions turned very grim.

The jade at the cut surface of this rough was dry green jade. The flesh of dry green jade is coarse, dry, and opaque, typically having a white or gray-white base. Its crystals are large and its surface is rough, making it of very low ornamental value. It’s an easily identifiable variety of very low grade.

Liu Xin burst into laughter upon seeing the rough’s cut surface, “Looks like our luck prevails. We even beat the White Base Green variety. Are you ready to admit defeat now?”

The faces of Li Tianyu and his companions turned sour as they stood up and faced Liu Xin, “You’ve won, what’s there to gloat about?”

“So what if I gloat? Weren’t you also gloating earlier? Do you think only you are allowed to do that?” Liu Xin laughed even louder.

Li Tianyu and his companions, frustrated and pale, found themselves without a retort.
