The village beauty and me!

Chapter 163 A Gossip Scene of Mutual Exposure

Chen Huan quickly reached out and grabbed Liu Qian's arm.

Liu Qian is now on the verge of exploding.

But in order to get the task at hand done, she continued to try to be patient.

She was clearly furious, but she had to suppress it. Given Liu Qian's personality, doing so would cause her internal injuries.

You might vomit blood on the spot, and that's no joke.

"Don't let him lead you astray, relax," Chen Huan whispered to him.

At the same time, he quickly channeled his internal energy into Liu Qian's meridians through her arm.

The main purpose is to protect the heart.

In this way, we can ensure that Liu Qian's body is not damaged due to anger.

The effect of the protective energy was immediate; Liu Qian, who was about to vomit blood, instantly felt the tightness in her chest dissipate.

She immediately realized that Li Meina had dug out her deepest pain with just a few words and stabbed her twice in the back.

"Thank you, Chen Huan." Liu Qian nodded to Chen Huan, without saying much more about her gratitude.

They quickly refocused their attention.

Even without an emotional breakdown or physical injury, Liu Qian's mind was still in turmoil. She couldn't sort out her thoughts and was unable to fight back as forcefully as before.

Standing there, all I could do was stare coldly at her; I didn't even know what to say.

"What, did I hit a nerve...?" Li Meina was still smug.

She seemed certain that she would be the victor, at least in this debate, she would have an absolute advantage, and she would severely suppress and provoke her competitor, Liu Qian.

They wanted to press their advantage and continue their psychological maneuvering.

But before she could finish speaking, she saw Chen Huan take a step forward, almost face to face with her.

"Li Meina, right? You have a sharp tongue."

  

"Have you ever heard of the cycle of karma and retribution? You can even say such vicious things. No wonder you're all bark and no bite."

"They look glamorous on the outside, but are actually a complete mess on the inside."

"At least Mr. Liu is healthy and physiologically normal, able to have children. What about you? Can you?" Chen Huan said casually, his expression carrying a calm, teasing tone.

At first, when he brought up having children, Liu Qian didn't quite understand.

I don't understand what Chen Huan is planning.

But when she saw Li Meina's expression on the other side, she suddenly understood.

The main problem is that Li Mina's face changed too quickly and too obviously.

It felt like being doused with a bucket of cold water in the dead of winter.

First his face turned deathly pale, then ashen, his eyes filled with a mixture of fear, unease, anger, and terror.

"What did you say?" Li Meina answered forcefully, but her body was already trembling.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was deeply hurt by Chen Huan's casual words.

It was just like when she said those vicious words to provoke Liu Qian.

The boomerang spun rapidly before striking her own head with pinpoint accuracy.

Chen Huan, however, had no intention of ending things there.

He continued, "Don't you really understand?"

"If I told you you were infertile, you'd have a nickname in the countryside: an old hen that can't lay eggs."

Two sentences were enough to make Li Meina sway and stagger, as if she might faint at any moment.

"How...how did you know?"

"You two investigated me!" Li Meina gritted her teeth, her face almost contorted with rage.

Chen Huan pointed to his eyes, "I forgot to tell you, I know a little about traditional Chinese medicine. Your health problems are obvious; I can tell at a glance."

"Nobody takes you seriously except yourself, so why would they investigate you?"

"Traditional Chinese medicine?" Li Meina looked dazed for a moment, clearly doubtful.

At this moment, Ma Yanping's subordinate quickly reminded her, "Ms. Li, we're not here to discuss trivial family matters."

"Don't forget the tasks your boss assigned you, and don't let them lead you astray."

Li Meina raised her hand and pinched her other arm hard twice, and her forehead instantly broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.

But it was precisely this tangible pain that allowed him to quickly break free from his previous tension and extreme anger.

He took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, "That's right, I didn't come here to argue with a quack doctor."

"I just raised the price to 500,000, and you haven't followed suit. So, are you planning to give up on the purchase?"

Liu Qian simply held up one finger, "I'll offer one million."

Liu Qian felt extremely satisfied with retaliating in this way.

She didn't know if Chen Huan could really tell from his eyes that the arrogant Li Meina was infertile.

But clearly, Chen Huan was right, and he directly vented his anger.

Liu Qian now admires and is grateful to Chen Huan, and even looks up to him somewhat.

The price of that jade plate, which was only glanced at twice, has skyrocketed.

In just a short time, the initial 100,000 yuan had soared to 3 million yuan.

This is the new price offered by Liu Qian.

"There's something interesting to see here."

"What could possibly be worth three million?"

"I heard it's just an unremarkable jade plate, not some top-tier jewel."

"It seems these two people already had a conflict, and now they're at odds."

People attending the exhibition kept gathering around to see what was going on.

People no longer even have the interest to look at those jewelry and jade items.

Indeed, the desire to gossip is universal, regardless of social class or industry.

The staff member next to him was overjoyed.

He probably never expected that the jade plate in the area he was in charge of would soar to such an exorbitant price.

After all, according to market prices, that jade plate could only fetch three or four hundred thousand at most.

The price has now increased nearly tenfold.

Most importantly, the two women, who are about the same age but both very proud, are now fighting like cockfighting, becoming increasingly excited and neither willing to give an inch.

Liu Qian had complete trust in Chen Huan, so she became increasingly assertive when offering prices.

On the other hand, the three members of Li Meina's team had some disagreements.

The elderly man with gray hair didn't say much, but Ma Yanping's subordinate was somewhat worried.

"Miss Li, are you sure you can tell what's going on?"

"I just asked someone else, and they said it's just a jade plate, can it really be worth that much?"

"If we keep arguing like this, and I end up spending millions only to make the wrong purchase, or even fall for their scam, I won't be able to explain myself when I get back."

"You know Mr. Ma's temper. If things are done well, everything will be fine, but if they are done badly, you'll have to bear the consequences yourself."

Li Meina clenched her fists tightly. "Although I didn't get a clear look at the jade plate, judging from Liu Qian's behavior and reaction, she was determined to get it."

"Don't worry about anything else. If she sets her sights on something, we'll just go for it. That way, we can't go wrong!"
