The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 141

Chapter 141 The Real Blood Jade 

“Because you’re pretty! You’re attractive and capable, and you handle things swiftly and efficiently!” Daniel’s response made Brittany stomp her foot in frustration again. 

“Jessica, look, he’s bullying me!” 

“He’s just asking you to get a couple of bottles of water. How is that bullying? You’re 

being so dramatic! Just go get it!” 

Feeling aggrieved yet without a choice, Brittany huffed and puffed her way to the buffet area and brought back two bottles of water. 

“Here you go, country bumpkin. I want to see how you’re going to turn these worthless black charcoals into Blood Jade worth millions. If you can’t do it, you’ll 

learn what cruelty really is!” 

Instead of taking the water bottles from Brittany, Daniel instructed her, “Just twist off the caps and pour the water over my hands, that’ll do.” 

Brittany’s eyes widened in disbelief. “You’re telling me to serve you, a country boy?” 

“We’re colleagues, aren’t we? We should help each other out! Hurry up, don’t dilly- dally. If you’re not willing, then I guess I’ll have to ask Jessica to do it.” 

“Jessica, Jessica! Is she your mom or something? You go running to her for every little thing. Are you even a man? All you do is complain to Jessica like a little whiny 

cat!” 

Despite her grievances, Brittany had no leverage over Daniel. So, reluctantly, she twisted off the bottle caps and did as Daniel had asked. As Daniel rubbed the two pieces of charcoal together under the flowing water, a dark ink–like dirty water quickly pooled on the ground. When the char washed away, the pieces turned a bright red, resembling two bloody hearts. 

Nicholas was dumbfounded. “Is this really Blood Jade? And it’s the highest quality! 

The whole piece looks like it’s got fresh blood flowing through it.” 

Nicholas delicately accepted the Blood Jade from Daniel, gently caressing the 

stones, feeling their quality with his fingertips. The texture of the Blood Jade was as 

smooth and silky as a young girl’s skin, extremely slick and moist. 

Andrew was stunned. With an incredulous expression, he couldn’t believe his eyes. Refusing to accept the reality, he asked Henry, “Henry, is this really Blood Jade?”
