If this were the case in the past, Qian Yu would have been delighted. But now, a faint voice in his heart told him that perhaps the online speculation was true.
The secretary said happily, “Mr. Chen is truly amazing. I’m afraid even the older generation of jade masters aren’t as skilled as Mr. Chen.”
“Let’s go to the warehouse.”
Seeing that his expression didn’t reflect joy, the secretary felt suspicious, but she didn’t say anything more and followed him.
The two of them entered the warehouse.
The workers inside were gathered around the jade pieces, discussing something, and hadn’t noticed them.
“Do you think Mr. Chen really has X-ray vision?”
“Who knows? But one thing is certain: he must have some way to identify jade. Otherwise, how could he be so accurate?”
“Don’t tell me. Before there were any rumors about the posts on the Internet, I already suspected that Mr. Chen had some special abilities. Otherwise, whose jade company could be as 100% bullish as ours? You know, the masters in those time-honored jade companies are all national treasures, but sometimes they can even make mistakes. But look at our company. Who would believe that there is no trick here?”
“This time, all the jade is bullish. These jade rough materials were bought by Mr. Chen, which shows how capable he is.”
“I think there is an 80% chance that Mr. Chen really has X-ray vision. He can see what is inside the rough stones at a glance, which is why he’s always so accurate in his purchases.”
“If only I had X-ray vision. I’d be rich. I could be like Mr. Chen, surrounded by women and making a fortune.”
“Stop imagining things.”
“Why not? Mr. Chen used to be even worse than I was. He was just a lowly clerk in a small company, not as capable as I am. But look at him now. He’s suddenly become a wealthy man. I imagine Mr. Chen must be like the hero in a novel, suddenly gaining special abilities, like X-ray vision, and then ascending to the pinnacle of life.” A young man said excitedly.
“Pfft— A novel? A hero? You’re really imagining things.” Someone else shrugged.
“Don’t you think what happened to Mr. Chen is very similar to the hero in the novel?” The young man continued, undeterred.
“Hey, you know what, it really is a bit like that.”
…
The people in the warehouse were buzzing with discussion, all of them convinced that Mr. Chen must be something special.
The two people standing at the warehouse door listened quietly to the chatter inside.
The secretary occasionally stole glances at Qian Yu, and seeing his gloomy expression, she was slightly alarmed, silently sighing at how outspoken these workers really were.
However, after listening to what they said and combining it with what she saw after entering the company, the secretary actually began to believe the rumors somewhat. After all, that was the fact. However, despite her inner thoughts, she dared not show it.
She knew that Mr. Qian and Mr. Chen had a very close relationship, and anyone gossiping behind their backs would certainly anger Mr. Qian.
A smart secretary would naturally not do something that would offend the big boss.
Qian Yu glanced around the warehouse, abruptly turned around, and left.
The secretary hurriedly caught up, not knowing what was wrong with Mr. Qian. She guessed that he was angry.
Qian Yu was feeling a mixture of emotions, their discussions constantly ringing in his head.
X-ray vision, a life of cheating…
