A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 197

"Wh-what?!"

"Only two in the world?!"

"Nine...$9.9 million?"

Everyone's head was spinning.

Su Qian was rooted to the spot despite being so angry moments ago. Her eyes were as wide as two large bells now.

"How could it be? This ring turned out to be genuine? And there are only two in the world?! How could that be? Where did that country bumpkin get the money to buy Mu-Cheng such an expensive ring?!" Su Qian couldn't believe it at all. She was so shocked that her body was still shaking violently.

Qiu Mu-Ying was even more shocked. Her mouth was wide open and she looked like a chicken that had its neck squeezed.

She couldn't believe her ears.

$9.9 million?!

Didn't that mean the $550,000 ring on her hand right now wasn't even a tenth of what Qiu Mu-Cheng's ring was worth?

Qiu Mu-Ying's face turned completely red and she could barely stand the humiliation.

Chu Wen-Fei looked equally nasty and his face was also flushed.

They wanted to insult Qiu Mu-Cheng but they got insulted right back instead.

The two of them were instantly embarrassed and felt like hiding themselves somewhere.

But they refused to give up and asked the sales assistant, "Surely you've made a mistake somewhere, right?"

"Look at it carefully again! He's just a country bumpkin and would never have enough money to buy Qiu Mu-Cheng a diamond ring worth millions even if he sold himself away! That's impossible! You must have made a mistake!” roared Qiu Mu-Ying indignantly as her eyes started turning red too.

"I wouldn't have made a mistake. This diamond ring is really from Shen Jewelry's collection. Both the purity of the diamond and the quality of the other materials are top notch. I would say that none of the items in this shop could be compared to this one diamond ring here. I've worked in this industry for nearly twenty years now, and I wouldn't make a mistake like this. If you still don't believe me, you can check it again at the shop in the middle. That's where Shen Jewelry's store is," replied the sales assistant calmly.

But these words reminded Qiu Mu-Ying and Chu Wen-Fei of something else.

"Uncle Wang, aren't you a distribution manager for Shen Jewelry? Come and take a look and see if this is really from your company," said Qiu Mu-Ying as she looked at the middle aged man next to her.

He didn't say anything and just furrowed his brows. His expression was grim, as if he was trying to think about something.

After that, this Uncle Wang walked over and asked Qiu Mu-Cheng, "Could I have a look?"

Qiu Mu-Cheng looked at Ye Fan and he nodded. Qiu Mu-Cheng then passed the ring to the middle aged man.

The man inspected the ring in his hand closely for a long time.

"Uncle Wang, how is it? Is it fake or not?” asked Qiu Mu-Ying anxious, as if she was hoping it would fail the test.

The man replied in a low voice, "The sales assistant is right. This is indeed a rare piece from Shen Jewelry."

"How could it be?"

Qiu Mu-Ying felt like she was going to collapse now. The fire in her heart earlier had dissipated and she was left with only despair.

She wanted to use this diamond ring to insult Qiu Mu-Cheng, but the one who was insulted was herself instead.

"But Miss Qiu, I would like to ask you something. When and where and which shop did you buy this piece from? As far as I know, there is no record of this 'Tears of a Lover' being sold. So I am really suspicious about where you got this ring from. In other words, I suspect you stole this ring."

What?

"If you have anything to say, you can tell the police yourself. Don't tell them that you're from the Qiu family, it'll be an embarrassment to us," said Qiu Mu-Ying as she added fuel to the fire.

Ye Fan ignored Qiu Mu-Ying's words and focused his attention on Wang Liang.

This man had actually falsely accused them without hearing their side of the story and even confiscated his wife's diamond ring.

What right did he have to do that?

Ye Fan frowned and looked at Wang Liang. "This gentleman here has gone too far. So just because we didn't buy it, we must have stolen it? What if I say this was a gift from the heir of Shen Jewelry?"

"A gift? To you, a live-in son-in-law? Why would the heir to Shen Group give you something so expensive? He probably can't even be bothered with you! Can you even believe your own words?" replied Wang Liang disdainfully with a cold smile in his eyes. He placed the ring into his own coat pocket and looked like he was going to claim it for himself.

While Wang Liang was speaking, two handsome young men came through the VIP entrance and walked over.

It was clear from their dressing that these two were sons of very wealthy families.

"Shao-Jie, the jade auction this time was really exciting. All the stones from Myanmar were of a much deeper green than before. Even the jade showcase in Jianghai can't be compared to the one in Yunzhou," Shen Fei talked to his friend with a hand in his pocket.

"Wang Liang, isn't that Young Master

Shen? That's the heir to your company! Since you've caught a thief, shouldn't you go over and tell him?" Qiu Mu-Ying's eyes were sharp and immediately noticed Shen Fei was the one who came through the VIP entrance.

"You're right! Just you wait, you stupid punk. You're going to die for stealing something from my company! My boss is actually here right now!" Wang Liang laughed coldly in Ye Fan's face. He then put on a placating expression and started calling out to Shen Fei.

"Young Master Shen, please come over for a while. I've caught someone who stole from us and we're waiting for you to deal with him!" Wang Liang had a big smile and looked like he was waiting to receive a compliment from his boss.

"Oh? How could such a thing happen?" Shen Fei frowned and walked over with a stern expression on his face.

He was going to see which idiot was tired of living and actually dared to steal from his company!
