Chapter 1323

“Of course! I told you all that this rock contains top–quality jadeite from the beginning. You just won’t believe it!” Leon said smugly in response to their compliments.

“But how do you know that?” Penny questioned.

There were tens of thousands of rocks in the low–end area and it puzzled her as to how Leon managed to find the one piece that contained just valuable jadeite.

‘Does he have the superpower to see through the rocks?‘ She thought. ‘But that’s not possible!‘

“Well,” Realizing that he could not explain his achievement with logic, Leon stuttered.

“Leon, you have some tricks that guided you to which rock to pick, don’t you?” Iris asked as she recalled the Imperial Green necklace she received as a gift from Leon.

She knew how Leon managed to obtain it and always thought that Leon was simply lucky. However, since Leon once again found an extremely rare jadeite, she realized there was more to the story and assumed that Leon had a secret trick or a certain talent that guided him to the right rock.

“Something like that. I have some tricks and I got lucky,” Leon mumbled.

“Tricks? It’s just luck!” Andy scoffed as he glared at Leon enviously.

He did not know that Leon once obtained a piece of Imperial Green the same way before, and decided that Leon could not be an expert for selecting a rock with such a flawed exterior. Hence, he assumed that Leon only managed to obtain the Four–Colored Jadeite by sheer luck.

“I suppose,” Penny said carelessly.

Since Leon could not possibly have the ability to see through the rock, there was no other explanation as to how he managed to find a Four–Colored Jadeite in such a big pile of low–end rocks apart from the fact that he was extremely lucky.

“Yeah. You’re right!” Leon nodded.

Since he wished to keep his spiritual energy a secret, he was struggling to explain his discovery, and the fact that Andy dismissed it as sheer luck worked in his favor.

On the other hand, Iris was annoyed that Andy questioned Leon’s ability repeatedly.

“Andy, I recall that you said that if Leon’s rock contains top–quality jadeite, you’re going to swallow it!

Do you want to fulfill that promise now?” Iris said calmly.

“Um,” Andy gaped, his cheeks flushing a shade of crimson.

“Iris, Andy was just messing around. Stop teasing him!” Penny interfered in time.

“Yeah, I was just messing around,” Andy smiled sheepishly.

Iris only intended to teach Andy a lesson, so she did not insist on seeing that her purpose was achieved.

“Iris, let’s go. Let’s take this piece of Four–Colored Jadeite to the engraver in this shop,” Leon said to l and the two started walking toward the counter.

Since Andy and Penny were yet to find the perfect gift for Patrick, they planned to take a stroll around the shop to look for suitable gifts.

On their way past the auction area, Leon suddenly picked up on extremely pure energy and came to a sudden halt.
