Chapter 1000 An Accident that Is Not an Accident

Everyone looked towards the person who spoke, but Shi Lei did not do so, because he had already heard that the owner of the voice was none other than Bai Boishui.

Shi Lei didn't have any reaction on the surface, but there was a big question mark in his heart.

What is wrong with this Mr. Bai? He has been very provocative since the moment we met, and now he said something like this, which would only embarrass the Bai family.

Bai Lao also frowned slightly, but quickly said with a smile: "Haha, let me introduce to you, this is Prism's child, Boishui. Boishui and Shi Lei are brothers. They are celebrating the New Year, and they are joking with Shi Lei. Even Shi Lei If you really want to give this piece of jade to me, I won’t dare to accept it. It’s worth at least two to three hundred million. If I accept it as a gift, why won’t the Anti-Corruption Bureau come to trouble me?”

Everyone didn't take it too seriously, they just thought it was the temperament of a young boy with boiled water. The key was that this was the eldest son and grandson of the Bai family. Who would really think that he wanted to take away Shi Lei's jadeite?

Bai Boishui glanced at Shi Lei hatefully, walked forward, suddenly smiled on his face, and said: "I was standing far away just now, and I couldn't see this piece of jade clearly. Brother Shi, how about you let me take a look?"

Shi Lei didn't know what was wrong with the boiled water, but he couldn't say anything, so he nodded and handed over the box in his hand.

"Mr. Bai, please palm your eyes."

Boishui took the box a little casually, not at all as solemn as Mr. Bai treated this rare jadeite.

Putting it on the table, Boiled Water opened the box and took out the colorful jadeite.

All this seemed normal, but the next scene was a bit not normal.

Bai Boishui held the jadeite with both hands and suddenly gently threw it up. He also said: "It's quite heavy. It's indeed quite beautiful."

Everyone was shocked, and Mr. Bai even frowned and shouted: "Boil the water, put down the jade!"

The better the quality of the jadeite, the higher the hardness, but at the same time, it is more fragile. A slight bump will affect the jadeite. Bai Lao does not want to see such a rare treasure happen to him.

However, Boishui seemed not to hear it and still gently tossed the piece of jade. He turned back, looked at Shi Lei, and said with a smile: "Brother Shi won't mind. After all, it's just a stone. Brother Shi is so You are young and promising, but you still care about a mere hundred million?”

After turning around like this, when the hands were connected again, there were some deviations. One of them was not held firmly in the hand, and the jadeite slipped to the side...

Boishui didn't expect such a thing to happen. He tossed the piece of jade just to see Shi Lei's expression of pain.

However, Shi Lei's expression did not change much, but something unexpected happened to the jade in his hands.

In an emergency, Bai Boishui hurriedly stretched out his hand to block the falling piece of jade, but he couldn't hold the piece of jade in his hands twice.

Everyone's eyes widened, and their hearts were in their throats. There was marble floor under their feet. If this jadeite fell to the ground, it would definitely break...

At this critical moment, a hand suddenly appeared in front of Bai Boishui's eyes. Just where the jadeite was less than twenty centimeters from the ground, that hand caught the jadeite firmly.

The exclamations from many guests were heard at this moment. Everything happened so suddenly that no one even had time to make a sound.

Fortunately, Jade was caught.

The person who caught the jade was Shi Lei himself.

Everyone just thought it was a fluke, thinking that Shi Lei stretched out his hand out of desperation and happened to catch the jadeite. Otherwise, this piece of jade, worth at least two to three billion, would probably fall into pieces today. Although it is still valuable, it is by no means a rare treasure.

"Boil water! Get out of the way!" Bai Prism roared angrily. He was extremely disappointed with the performance of boiled water.

The boiled water was also stunned, and he glanced at Shi Lei reluctantly. Bai Lao also said in a deep voice: "Boiling water, you go down first!"

Helpless, Bai Boishui could only walk aside, keeping a distance of nearly two meters away from Shi Lei and Jade.

Bai Lao said to Shi Lei: "My dear, I'm sorry."

Shi Lei smiled, put the jade back into the box, and said, "It's okay, it's just an accident. Besides, didn't I catch them all?" Shi Lei saw one person in the crowd who was particularly nervous. He knew that that person It was the big boss of the auction house. He fastened the box, walked to the man, and whispered: "Please check and see if there is any damage to the jade." After all, the auction house has already spent 80 million. If it really happened, Something happened to Jade, and I don’t know what to do with the loss.

The man nodded, took the box from Shi Lei's hand, and whispered, "I'll go take a look. If nothing happens, I'll have someone send it back immediately."

Shi Lei also nodded, and the man hurriedly walked away.

Returning to Mr. Bai, Shi Lei explained in a low voice: "I have entrusted their auction house to auction this piece of jade at the Spring Fair, because the jade does not belong to me alone, and another person needs capital turnover, so their auction house took out the Eighty million. Their auction house brought the jade here today, so I want them to check it, there’s nothing wrong with it, Mr. Bai, don’t get me wrong.”

Bai Lao nodded to express his understanding, then looked at his grandson, pointed at the boiled water and said, "Come and apologize to Shi Lei!"

Bai Bo Shui pursed his lips, looking aggrieved. Seeing this, Bai Prism also shouted in a low voice: "Apologise to Shi Lei!"

Shi Lei saw this and said, "Mr. Bai didn't mean it. He may not have much contact with such objects and doesn't quite understand why a piece of stone is so valuable. It was just an accident. Mr. Bai and uncle, please don't blame him too much. Today is Mr. Bai's happy day after returning from school. A little unexpected episode is also an embellishment."

Bai Kaishui didn't feel any gratitude towards Shi Lei when he heard this. On the contrary, he looked at him with disgust.

And Mr. Bai and Bai Lingjing also felt that it was inconvenient to continue scolding Bai Kaishui with so many people present. Mr. Bai winked at Bai Lingjing, and Bai Lingjing walked to Bai Kaishui's side and whispered something. Bai Kaishui reluctantly followed him and left here.

At this moment, Bai Lao also smiled and said, "We almost destroyed a rare treasure. Money is a small matter, but if such a treasure is destroyed by an old man, I will feel uneasy."

Naturally, everyone didn't know what to say, but just said auspicious words. Bai Lingjing hurried back and took Shi Lei to the observation deck outside, apologetically saying, "Shi Lei, I'm so sorry, my son..."

Shi Lei smiled and said, "Uncle, thank you and Bai Lao for not treating me as an outsider. Mr. Bai is like my brother. If someone makes a mistake, don't blame him too much. It's okay, let it go."

Bai Lingjing sighed and said, "I don't know what happened to this child. He is not like this usually. There must be some misunderstanding. I will ask him later. You two will have many opportunities to get to know each other in the future. After getting to know each other, you will definitely be like real brothers."

Shi Lei nodded, but said in his heart, it was a close call. Just now, when he saw Bai Kaishui weighing the jadeite, he immediately mobilized the hand speed card in his mind.

Fortunately, the hand speed card's cooling period had just passed, otherwise, Shi Lei really couldn't catch the jade. If the jade was really broken here today, there would probably be a rift between Shi Lei and the Bai family, regardless of whether they had to pay compensation or not.

But what's the matter with this Mr. Bai?
