After Marrying the Officer Chapter 654 Misunderstood

After sizing up Xia Chuyi, Mr. Cheng continued with a smile and asked Xia Chuyi, "Little comrade, what is your relationship with Fan San? Relative?"

Mr. Cheng shared his speculation.

However, Xia Chuyi shook her head and calmly told Mr. Cheng, "No, I am his guest."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Cheng’s expression completely changed. He paused for a few seconds, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Little comrade, are you here to buy jade?"

It was clear that Mr. Cheng had misunderstood her identity.

"Whose family are you from?"

It wasn’t Mr. Cheng’s fault for not seeing clearly. It was just that Xia Chuyi gave off such a calm and composed impression that Mr. Cheng mistook her for soone "from a notable family."

Xia Chuyi smiled slightly and said, "I am not from any family in Capital City. I ca to see Fan San not to buy jade, but for another matter."

Then Mr. Cheng looked at her and pondered for a mont before saying, "Oh, in that case, it’s unfortunate."

Mr. Cheng then continued with a smile, "Little comrade, Fan San has a big deal to make today. So if you have other matters to discuss with him, please co back another day."

After finishing his words, Mr. Cheng signaled to his n with a glance to block Xia Chuyi’s path with their bodies.

Obviously, Mr. Cheng did not believe Xia Chuyi’s words, assuming that her visit to Fan San must be about the jade.

Xia Chuyi shook her head slightly, thinking to herself: it seems her judgnt was indeed not wrong.

Mr. Cheng, beforehand, was rely a smiling tiger.

Faced with this situation, Xia Chuyi remained calm and said, "I must go in today."

If she didn’t go in today, how would the jade inside be sold?

As a result, Mr. Cheng, thinking she was stubbornly refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, said with a false smile, "You can go in, sure. But after I finish this big deal, then you can go inside."

Then, Mr. Cheng hypocritically bowed to everyone and said, "The jade inside, I, Mr. Cheng, have claid it. Those who are interested, please leave for now."

With this, Mr. Cheng fully revealed his fierce side.

After "greeting" everyone, Mr. Cheng turned around and stepped into the courtyard.

Left outside, the real seller, Xia Chuyi: ...

Seeing Mr. Cheng had left, soone ca forward and whispered to Xia Chuyi, "Little comrade, are you perhaps a youngster from a big family who has just started working independently?"

"Didn’t your elders tell you about so precautions for coming here?"

Xia Chuyi shook her head.

Upon seeing that, the person continued, "Well, I shouldn’t say too much, but just one piece of advice—don’t compete for the jade here today at Fan San’s, to avoid trouble."

Xia Chuyi was sowhat wryly amused.

So her ambiguous words earlier made everyone think she was a buyer?

All right, she wouldn’t go in today and would see if this ’Mr. Cheng’ could really close this ’big deal.’

A few minutes later, Xia Chuyi heard noises coming from the yard as soone exited.

"It’s the Wang Family!" soone whispered.

"How was it, Housekeeper Wang? Was the jade good?" soone else asked curiously as the Wang Family erged.

Housekeeper Wang, also sounding amiable, replied, "It’s excellent jade, old pit ice type. Not only is the color beautiful and the stone translucent, but most importantly, it’s intact and sizable!"

"Wow, that must really be so fine jade!"

"Oh my, I would really love to see this great item!"

The crowd sighed with admiration.
