1294 Nothing Can Be Done Without Rules

He Wenxian shook her head helplessly. “Xi Xi, I have nothing to be afraid of. Since you’re strongly requesting an appraisal, I’ll have to trouble you, Mr. Cheng.”

Cheng Juan raised his eyes to glance at Qiao Xi before slowly asking, “Are you sure you want me to do an appraisal?”

His voice was gentle and a little hoa.r.s.e. It carried a unique male charm, making the women present blush. He Wenxian smiled in embarra.s.sment. “Mr. Cheng, I don’t want to waste your time, but this is no small matter. If you don’t come forward to appraise the two necklaces, there won’t be a conclusion today. Since Xi Xi has agreed, please appraise the necklaces.”

Lan Rong echoed, “That’s right. Only Mr. Cheng’s appraisal results can convince Miss Qiao. Those who don’t know might think that we’ve wronged her!”

!!

Cheng Juan smiled and said in a gentle voice, “Everyone should know my rules.”

Most people had heard of Mr. Cheng’s rules. He had never made a mistake in his career and could not tolerate anything. Hence, his rule was that once a fake was discovered, it would be mercilessly destroyed on the spot. It did not matter who it belonged to or how much it was worth.

Back then, a young miss from the capital was attending a banquet and happened to wear the same brooch as a lady. At that time, the young miss insisted on appraising it. In the end, the young miss’ brooch was fake. Cheng Juan ignored the young miss’ scream and smashed the brooch on the spot.

The entire venue was in an uproar, but ever since then, he became famous in the industry and everyone naturally knew about his special rules.

He Wenxian had no objections. Since Cheng Juan could even smash the belongings of those daughters from wealthy families in the capital, he would naturally not give them an exception. Actually, this was also a good thing. After Cheng Juan determined that Qiao Xi’s necklace was a fake, it would immediately be smashed. Not only would Qiao Xi lose an expensive necklace, but she would also be despised by everyone. Perhaps even Gu Zheng would hate her for her stupidity.

“I agree. What do you think, Xi Xi?” He Wenxian asked softly.

Qiao Xi nodded and did not object.

A trace of playfulness flashed past Cheng Juan’s eyes. “Since the two of you have no objections, let’s start.”

He slowly sat down, put on gloves, and instructed his a.s.sistant to spread a layer of velvet on the table. Then, both parties took off their necklaces and placed them on the table.

In everyone’s eyes, the two necklaces were almost identical. The color, saturation, and angle of embedding were all the same.??e????no???.??ｍ

Cheng Juan picked up the two necklaces and observed them carefully. He revealed a subtle smile.

The next second, the a.s.sistant took out a box. Inside was a small exquisite hammer. It was the tool Cheng Juan used to smash the brooch of the daughter of a rich family in the capital.

When everyone saw the hammer, they knew that Cheng Juan had already come to a conclusion. They stared fixedly at the two necklaces, and He Wenxian became nervous.

‘With Cheng Juan’s hammer, Qiao Xi’s necklace will be shattered into pieces. From then on…’

“Miss He, are you really going to let Mr. Cheng smash it?” Qiao Xi suddenly interrupted He Wenxian’s thoughts. “If you go back on your word now, I believe Mr. Cheng won’t make things difficult for you.”

He Wenxian smiled and shook her head. “Xi Xi, there are rules we have to follow. Since this is Mr. Cheng’s rule, it’s not good for him to make an exception for us. No matter whose necklace is a fake, it has to be destroyed according to Mr. Cheng’s wishes. Xi Xi, are you going back on your word?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Lan Rong snorted. “I think her necklace is quite good. It shouldn’t be cheap either. Now that she heard that the fake is going to be smashed, she can’t bear to part with it and wants to go back on her word.

“If you want to go back on your word, then tell the truth. You even asked Wenxian if she wants to go back on her word. How shameless! Wenxian had already given you a chance. You didn’t cherish it and insisted on doing an appraisal!”

He Wenxian waved her hand gently. “Rong Rong, don’t say that. If Xi Xi wants to go back on her word, I’ll agree. It’s just that I don’t know what Mr. Cheng will think.

“After all, Xi Xi is my friend’s wife. I can’t just watch her make a fool of herself. If she hadn’t insisted on getting it appraised, I wouldn’t have troubled you, Mr. Cheng.

“Xi Xi, if you want to go back on your word, we’ll stop here. Mr. Cheng, please show mercy and treat it as a joke.”

Qiao Xi sneered in her heart. He Wenxian’s behavior was really nauseating. No matter what she said or did, she always maintained the appearance of being very kind and wholeheartedly thinking for the sake of others. It was as if she only agreed to the appraisal because she had no choice and was respecting the other party’s opinion. However, every word she said was actually adding fuel to the fire.
