C7 Gu Yu

Lee Hao, who was on the antique street, still didn't know that his unintentional words had involved a case of economic dispute.

When Lee Hao entered the Antique Street, he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, as if something was calling out to his soul.

Along the way, this feeling became stronger and stronger. When he arrived at the antique store last time, he had reached his peak condition.

An invisible force emerged from his body, urging him to enter the antique shop.

Lee Hao didn't hesitate and walked into the store. The display inside was still the same. The business at night was much lighter, and only the boss was inside.

Lee Hao's eyes were firmly attracted by the Ancient Jade from last time. It was emitting a layer of dim light and a mysterious aura.

"Kid, it's you again. I haven't even settled the score with you yesterday. How dare you come here today?" The boss said angrily.

Lee Hao forced his gaze away and smiled. "Boss, what do you mean by this? You opened the door to do business and didn't let anyone in."

"Come on, you. This is an antique. You can take a look at it. If you want to buy it, wait for a few more years!" The owner of the antique store had a sharp eye. He sized Lee Hao up. Judging from his clothes, he could tell how much money Lee Hao had.

The owner couldn't be blamed for being snobbish. Lee Hao's sports attire cost no more than 300 yuan.

He had been away for three days, but now he was different. Lee Hao did not care about the boss's disdain. He started to look at the antiques on the shelves.

"Young man, just take a look. Don't flip them."

"Boss, how much is this ancient painting?" Lee Hao did not go straight to the Ancient Jade. He casually pointed to a painting on the wall and asked for the price.

"Thirty thousand!"

The boss did not even raise his head and directly stated a price.

This attitude was too perfunctory. Lee Hao pointed at another porcelain bowl and said, "Boss, how much is this?"

"One hundred thousand!"

The boss said unhappily. He had a strong sense of resistance towards a customer like Lee Hao who only asked for the price.

"Boss, is this how you do business? If you don't even look at the price, I'll sue you." Even a clay figurine would get angry, not to mention the high-spirited Lee Hao.

"Kid, you don't understand this, right? Antiques are priceless treasures. I can sell them however I want, as long as someone is willing to buy them." The boss thought that he had subdued the other party and said complacently.

"How much is this?"

Lee Hao's heart shivered. He was subdued by the shop owner's helplessness. He casually pointed at the Ancient Jade and asked.

"Kid, are you finished? You're still asking questions. I'll charge you ten thousand yuan for this one. Can you afford it?"

Lee Hao pondered for a while. Ten thousand yuan was a drop in the ocean for him. In order to avoid any more waves, he didn't bargain and directly picked up the Ancient Jade.

"Kid, you still want to touch it? Didn't I tell you not to touch it? You want to pay for damages? " The boss angrily walked over and criticized Lee Hao.

Lee Hao picked up the Ancient Jade and shook it a few times in his hand. He put it into his pocket and said calmly, "Don't get too excited. I will buy this Ancient Jade. It will be ten thousand according to what you said."

"You really bought it?" The boss asked with uncertainty.

Lee Hao nodded affirmatively.

The boss was startled, as if he had realized something. Could this brat be trying to wash him off just now? His real intention must be the Ancient Jade that he had taken a fancy to last time!

He regretted it in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would have increased the price by several times. At that time, the price of the Ancient Jade was 5,000. It had been placed there for a few years, but he had only managed to earn twice the price. He was somewhat unwilling to accept this.

However, now that the words had been spoken, he could not abandon the basic integrity of a businessman. In the antique industry, how could one live without integrity?

"Alright! Ten thousand yuan, pay up. The Ancient Jade will be yours."

Lee Hao paid the bill cleanly and left the antique store under the boss's shocked, regretful, and vexed expression.

The matter was perfectly successful, but now was not the time to research. Lee Hao took a taxi back to the rented house and prepared to study it properly.

The doors and windows were all shut by Lee Hao. The room was pitch black.

Lee Hao did not turn on the lights, but sat on the bed and took out the Ancient Jade from his pocket.

A gentle ray of light was emitted from the Ancient Jade, and the dark room was once again filled with light.

"This can't be the legendary luminous pearl! But why didn't the shop owner find out that the Ancient Jade could emit light?" Lee Hao thought with some doubt.

This thought was thrown out of Lee Hao's mind in the blink of an eye. Why did he care so much about it? If the boss found out, what else could he do?

He recalled the scene yesterday. The Ancient Jade only discovered the change after absorbing his blood. Could it be that it wanted to suck his blood now?

Lee Hao bit his finger and placed it on the Ancient Jade. A huge suction force was emitted from the Ancient Jade, and the blood in his body flowed continuously.

The large amount of blood loss caused Lee Hao's face to turn pale. His vision went black, and he fell onto the bed, unconscious.

The Ancient Jade didn't stop because of Lee Hao's coma. It continued to absorb Lee Hao's blood. If someone came in at this time, they would discover something terrifying.

Lee Hao had already become a dried corpse, and not a single drop of blood could be seen on his body.
