Boom!
These words, one after another, pierced Li Han's heart like sharp knives, causing her heart to ache and shatter.
Each word hit the mark!
Each word was deadly!
Li Han felt as if she had been struck by lightning, collapsing to the ground, her pupils dilated, her face pale as paper.
She had never imagined that her own mother would wish for her death!
For a moment, she was overwhelmed with grief, tears streaming down her face, unable to utter a single word.
"Wife!"
Wang Anguo hurriedly rushed over to support Li Han, his eyes filled with worry. "Are you okay?"
"Mom."
Wang Baozhu, Wang Baoyu, and others also had expressions of deep concern.
Wang Chao's face grew even darker.
Words can be hurtful!
The words spoken by their grandmother completely shattered Li Han's heart.
Even a normal person wouldn't utter such cruel words!
Are these the words of a human being?
And to make it worse, this person is her grandmother!
Wang Chao's gaze turned cold, and with a swift motion, he grabbed the jade Guanyin statue from the ground, glaring at his grandmother with a cold voice, "Out of respect for my mother, I will address you as grandmother!"
"You are completely wrong about this, absurdly wrong!"
"My mother is not a jinx; it is you who are blind and don't understand Baoyu!"
"You don't deserve to be a mother at all!"
"Wang Chao, she is your grandmother. How can you speak like that? Show some manners and upbringing!" Li Hong angrily rebuked.
"What kind of trash raises what kind of son! Wang Chao, how dare you speak like this in front of us nobles?" Li Mei sneered, displaying dominance and authority. "You, who wash dishes and do menial labor overseas, who sell your own body, how dare you speak to your grandmother like this? What kind of person are you?"
"Apologize to your grandmother immediately, and give her a slap!"
"Shut up, all of you!" Wang Chao coldly stared at them.
This time, he was filled with anger.
His gaze was like a knife, fierce as a dragon.
With just one glance, Li Mei and Li Hong were terrified, their souls scattered.
They had lived for so long but had never encountered such a terrifying gaze.
Cold and merciless, as icy as a blade, it seemed as if a ferocious dragon in the sky was looking down on them.
In front of Wang Chao, they felt like insignificant ants, ready to be crushed under his foot at any moment.
They fell silent, not daring to utter a single word.
Wang Chao then turned his gaze back to his grandmother and coldly said, "Grandmother, you are unworthy of being a mother!"
"What did you say?" his grandmother angrily retorted.
Wang Chao sneered and said in a deep voice, "You are biased against girls, ignorant and superstitious. Just because a fortune teller said a few words, you blamed all the disasters on my mother, saying that she brought misfortune upon you!"
"But have you ever considered that it is your own fault?"
"My mother found money and bought food for herself without any issues. But when you ate it, you got food poisoning. Haven't you considered that maybe that day you ate something else that caused the diarrhea?"
"My mother scored 100 on an exam, and you claim that it caused your family business to decline. These two things are completely unrelated!"
"When my mother received her acceptance letter, what does it have to do with you getting a severe cold?"
"In reality, all the disasters you have experienced are your own affairs and have nothing to do with my mother."
"You look down on my mother because you think she is poor and can not afford expensive gifts. So you threw away the gift she gave you. But do you know how much this jade stone is worth?"
As he spoke, he raised the jade Guanyin statue in his hand and uttered coldly, "Even if I sold all of you from the Li family, it still would not compare to its astronomical value!"
"Heh, just a piece of rock, a fake. How much could it be worth?" his grandmother sneered.
"Well, Mr. Wang, may I take a look?" At that moment, an old man with a white beard walked out of the crowd, his eyes filled with excitement.
Without hesitation, Wang Chao immediately handed it over to him.
The old man with the white beard, named Hu Tianhai, regarded it as a precious treasure, carefully examining it and studying it.
"Hu Tianhai, the professional appraiser. Why is he here?"
"Hu Tianhai's expertise in appraising is top-notch in our country. He has never made a mistake in his assessments. Wang Chao considers this guy a treasure, but now he might be embarrassed!"
"That's right, it's just a worthless piece of rock. He dares to claim it has astronomical value. It's simply ridiculous."
Seeing this old man intervene, all the members of the Li family began discussing and looking at Wang Chao with mocking and ridiculing eyes, as if they could already envision the scene of Wang Chao making a fool of himself.
His grandmother also sneered, her gaze full of disdain, and said, "Mr. Hu, please appraise it and tell us how much this fake is worth."
"Mr. Hu, you do not have to show us any mercy. Boldly state it and give this worthless person a slap in the face!" Li Mei uttered coldly.
Li Mei's gaze was cold and sharp, filled with sarcasm and spite.
In her opinion, the gifts given by Wang Chao and Li Han must be worthless junk, not worth a penny.
Therefore, she was eager for Hu Tianhai to appraise the result, hoping to crush and suppress Wang Chao and Li Han's family, humiliating them once again.
Li Hong, Li Chunyan, and others also sneered, showing a gloating expression, looking forward to the spectacle.
Hu Tianhai looked at the jade Guanyin statue, trembling with excitement. "This's an miraculous treasure, an invaluable treasure!"
"What?!" Li Mei's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. She quickly said, "Mr. Hu, are you sure you did not make a mistake? How can this be a treasure?"
"It's naturally formed, of great quality, and brimming with spiritual energy. This jade is not only unparalleled in the world but can also nourish its owner, ward off disasters, prolong life, and bring good fortune. It is the treasure of treasures!"
Hu Tianhai caressed the jade Guanyin statue, his eyes shining, and his beard trembling with excitement. "If we have to put a price on this precious jade, I believe it would be at least ten billion yuan!"
"If it falls into the hands of a connoisseur, it might even fetch a higher price."
