Back to the 80s: Raising my Wolfy Boyfriend

Chapter 865: Chapter 865: The Cold-Faced Master Mu

The Royal Emperor Green Jade, truly a rare gem.

The jade has a strong glass-like luster, it looks perfectly colored, rich in hue, with an even tone. Its color resembles emerald, the tone is closest to the green spectrum, and the quality is extremely delicate.

Unfortunately, its size is not even as large as an adult’s fist.

An Mingji’s eyes flashed with deep disappointment, a sigh formed in his heart.

Mu Zifan could hardly miss the disappointment on both of their faces, he was somewhat surprised.

He didn’t understand why the jade, always treasured by his elders, was so disliked by them.

Sitting across on the sofa, Mu Zifan asked, "Is there anything wrong with the jade?"

Gu Jin relaxed his body, leaned back on the sofa, his slender jade-like fingers gently holding his forehead, unsure of what to say.

An Mingji closed the exquisite wooden box and candidly said to Mu Zifan, "This piece of jade is a bit small. Our elders once had a piece slightly larger than this, but it was destroyed for some reason. We wanted to find one of a similar size for them."

So there was such a backstory, Mu Zifan suddenly understood, "I see."

The butler then brought in the tea for the guests.

And along came the news that the Wanqi Family Head was arriving.

"Uncle Wanqi is here? Hurry and welcome him in."

Mu Zifan stood up, prepared to greet the guest personally.

"I’ve come uninvited; Zifan won’t be stingy with a cup of tea, right?"

A cheerful laugh echoed from the entrance.

Wanqi Yanghong, the Wanqi Family Head, walked in with a big smile.

Mu Zifan looked up and smiled, "Look at what Uncle Wanqi just said, it’s an honor for our tea to serve you."

As Wanqi Yanghong approached everyone, he saw An Mingji and Gu Jin sitting on the sofa. His smile restrained considerably, and his attitude became noticeably respectful, "Young Master An, Miss Gu."

Before outsiders, he no longer referred to Gu Jin as Young Ninth Master.

An Mingji and Gu Jin nodded slightly in return, their mood inexplicably low.

The respectful demeanor of the Wanqi Family Head left Mu Zifan startled.

As the Wanqi Family is one of the Four Great Families in Beijing, such humility was puzzling.

An Mingji and Gu Jin exchanged a glance, realizing it was a wasted trip today.

Gu Jin stood up first and said to Wanqi Yanghong, "Sorry for the trouble today, we’ve seen the item, but it’s not what we need."

Wanqi Yanghong blinked, "What do you mean by that?"

In this vast Beijing, he knew only the Mu Family possessed the Emperor Green Jade.

If the Mu Family’s wasn’t what they needed, he truly had no idea where else to look.

An Mingji repeated to Wanqi Family Head what he had said to Mu Zifan earlier.

Unlike Mu Zifan, Wanqi Yanghong was aware of An Mingji’s identity.

Hearing that the other’s family once had a jade even larger than the Mu Family’s, the first person he thought of was the reclusive Lady Darwin.

Only Lady Darwin could have such financial power.

He felt a shock in his heart, and an anxious expression broke through on his face.

"What shall we do?" Wanqi Yanghong murmured, then looked to Mu Zifan at the side, "Zifan, do you know of anyone else in Beijing who has Emperor Green Jade?"

Mu Zifan shook his head, "I’ve never heard of it."

Even if other families possessed it, none would have jade larger than the Mu Family’s.

Upon hearing this, An Mingji and Gu Jin prepared to leave.

"Sorry for bothering you today, we’ll be leaving now."

"Wait!"

Mu Zifan suddenly remembered something and stopped them.

All eyes turned to this seemingly cold Mu Zifan.
