"Today I’m here to give Miss An the justice she deserves. Emotionally speaking, Miss An Yiqing is my father’s savior; rationally speaking, both Miss An and I are Xuanjin People. Being Xuanjin People, we absolutely cannot let outsiders bully us!"
"Oh? So you an you think that Miss An’s loss is unjust, and you want to twist the facts?" Mr. ng Po was shaken by Duan Ziqing’s aura and asked in a deep voice.
"Twist the facts? Are you sure?" Duan Ziqing’s red lips curved up, showing a sly smile, "If Miss An had truly lost fair and square, I, Duan Ziqing, definitely wouldn’t be standing here today. Though I don’t have much ability, I do care about my reputation. As for distorting facts, I believe Mr. ng Po is the real expert here!"
"Ziqing, what are you saying!" Qiu Yanran couldn’t bear the shock, scread while staring at Duan Ziqing, as if she didn’t recognize him.
Duan Ziqing didn’t even look at Qiu Yanran, his cold upturned phoenix eyes were fixed on Mr. ng Po, showing no signs of backing down.
The hall once again fell into silence, everyone was stunned by the dramatic twists of events today. What was initially thought to be a simple stone gambling contest between the Jade King and the first lady of Xuanjin surprisingly involved swapping stones! From stone-cutting to now, first it’s Count Refuno, then Muyun Society’s Head Duan, even the famous King Xinsheng showed up. This unfolding drama is even more captivating than a TV series!
The crowd held their breath, struggling to suppress the excitent in their hearts, their curious eyes wandering between Mr. ng Po and An Yiqing and the others, all eagerly waiting for the next act.
"Chairman Duan, you’ve indeed raised a good son! Witty and eloquent!" Mr. ng Po let out a cold snort, shifting his anger towards Duan Jingning. As the Jade King, he had always maintained a close business relationship with the Duan Family in the jade business. Although they cannot be considered friends, it’s still a mutually beneficial relationship. Mr. ng Po couldn’t believe Duan Jingning would just let Duan Ziqing behave so recklessly! It should be noted that when Qiu Yanran and Duan Ziqing were close, Duan Jingning had also turned a blind eye!
Yet, Mr. ng Po guessed wrong again. To Duan Jingning, An Yiqing, his savior, was more important than anyone else.
"Thank you, Mr. ng Po, for your complints, my son was worthless before, but after getting beaten by Xiao Qing, he turned out alright. I’m quite relieved!" Duan Jingning pretended to be deaf, smiling, "Kids, they’re young and ignorant, misjudging affection happens sotis, admitting the mistake is good enough. Mr. ng Po, you are an elder, getting involved in kids’ matters isn’t a good idea. It’s best to let go!"
Duan Jingning, old and cunning, didn’t ntion anything related to the swapping of rough stones. He diverted the topic focus to Duan Ziqing and Qiu Yanran’s past, forcefully pulling the the off track.
The veins on Mr. ng Po’s forehead were throbbing violently, looking at Duan Jingning with an expression as if he wanted to devour him.
"Chairman Duan! We seem to have a two billion business collaboration to carry out! Ziqing is just a child who doesn’t understand, shouldn’t the parent restrain them?" Mr. ng Po hinted at the business cooperation he had with Duan Jingning, using two billion as a veiled threat for Duan Jingning to keep Duan Ziqing’s mouth shut and prevent him from speaking recklessly. Mr. ng Po didn’t believe that, faced with two billion, Duan Jingning wouldn’t see the situation clearly.
Unexpectedly, Duan Jingning acted as if he were truly ignorant, seemingly unable to pick up on Mr. ng Po’s underlying threat.
"Sigh, kids grow up, their wings harden, what can an old man like do? As for business cooperation, I’m old and can’t handle it anymore. As a person, having enough money to spend is sufficient, haha!"
Duan Jingning laughed like Maitreya Buddha, and Mr. ng Po almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. This "enough money to spend is sufficient" nonsense, he just said Duan Ziqing is a kid, and now he claims he’s grown and independent! So the good and bad all ended up as his, Duan Jingning!
Mr. ng Po realized that Duan Jingning was resolutely pretending to be ignorant, clearly standing on An Yiqing’s side.
"Miss An, good skills, even Chairman Duan follows your lead. It appears today’s contest cannot continue; since Miss An is not sincere, I don’t want to waste any more ti! Farewell!"
With that, Mr. ng Po waved his hand and was about to leave with his n. He could see that the current situation was unfavorable for him, if Duan Ziqing did possess sothing, the consequences would be unimaginable. The best course of action now would be to leave quickly.
