400: Chapter 375: Hard to Distinguish True from False 400: Chapter 375: Hard to Distinguish True from False Ou Jinyang repeatedly declined, but in the end, he accepted, and thus openly spoke the truth after taking Liu Hun’s gift. Originally, the details of Bao Li Group’s advertising selection contest had been kept confidential, and even he didn’t know the specifics. However, he pointed out a clear path for Liu Hun, saying that Bao Li Company’s Marketing Director, Michael, would arrive in the city at six o’clock that evening, and they could start their plan from Michael, who had a peculiar hobby of collecting unusual stones. After leaving the Bao Li building, Lin Xiaoxiang pulled Liu Hun aside and asked, “What just happened? How did the fake turn real, and the real turn fake again?” “Could Jia Tianhao play tricks, and I, Liu Hun, not know one? It was just a little trick!” Liu Hun found an excuse to brush Lin Xiaoxiang off, then checked his watch and said to her, “We are running out of time. We need to hurry and buy some unique stones and meet this Michael. Only the two of us know about this, and we can definitely make it!” “Yes! Stone Record Jewelry Store in the north of the city specializes in unique stones, we should be able to find some good ones there,” Lin Xiaoxiang nodded firmly at Liu Hun, feeling that nothing was impossible with this man by her side. Once they got in the car, Lin Xiaoxiang meant to throw the brocade box to the back seat, and with a “clatter,” something fell out. “What is this object? It seems to have fallen from the brocade box,” Lin Xiaoxiang said as she bent down to pick up a button-sized, black object. Liu Hun took a close look at the object in Lin Xiaoxiang’s hand, and suddenly startled, he exclaimed, “An eavesdropper! Where did this come from?” “It... It just fell out of that brocade box,” Lin Xiaoxiang pointed at the brocade box she had thrown to the back seat. Liu Hun took the eavesdropper from Lin Xiaoxiang’s hand and immediately threw it out of the window, then he said to her, “Is that brocade box the one that got switched?” “Yes! It was the one always carrying the fake letter... Are you saying that the eavesdropper was placed in there by Jia Tianhao from the beginning, and after the switch, it stayed with us?” Lin Xiaoxiang suddenly realized. “His tactics are not simple,” Liu Hun said with a cold look in his eyes, “Jia Tianhao has grown smarter now, prepared on multiple fronts, both switched the letter and installed an eavesdropper, he has heard everything we discussed in the office with Ou Jinyang.” “So, he already knows about Michael now? This is troublesome; we must act quickly, to stay ahead of him,” Lin Xiaoxiang told Liu Hun, not wanting her efforts to turn into nothing. Liu Hun nodded, but a different thought crossed his mind, and he stepped on the gas heading towards Stone Records. When the two arrived on the bustling street and parked the car, they hurried to Stone Record Jewelry Store. As they reached the entrance, they saw a Lamborghini parked right in front of the store, attracting many young men and women who stopped to look, admiration written all over their faces. “They must have arrived, and this time, not lackeys, but the boss himself,” Liu Hun said, slowing down his pace as he and Lin Xiaoxiang stepped into Stone Record Jewelry Store. “Welcome, how may I help you?” greeted a polite receptionist. “What they want, I already have in my hand,” came a somewhat immature voice from not far away—it was Xia Huai! “Have you been hiding for so long you’ve grown moldy and stinky, finally willing to come out into the light?” Liu Hun said to Xia Huai, standing behind him was Jia Tianhao, and in front of the two, the counter was filled with various peculiar stones. “Liu Hun, I have always lost to you. Therefore, I have been lying low, and today’s scene is my achievement. How does it feel to be the loser?” Xia Huai asked Liu Hun while tossing a valuable stone in his hand. “In any place with me, the label ‘loser’ can only apply to you, no matter what despicable and shameless means you use, the end is always the same,” Liu Hun said to Xia Huai with a cold face. “Really? I’ve bought all the stones here, what can you do now?” Xia Huai asked Liu Hun smugly. At this time, people attracted by Xia Huai’s Lamborghini, their curiosity piqued, began to flood into the jewelry store. Although the receptionist knew these people were here to spectate, being a welcoming store, she could not control these people. “Wow! Isn’t that Xia Huai?! That Lamborghini must be his! Look at how many stones he has in front of him, it must cost a lot of money, he’s really impressive!” “I heard he’s the best graduate from Peyton Public School, and you know what, his dad is the chairman of the Hui Le Group too! He meets celebrities whenever he wants, the usual high-profile celebrities!” “Hey, hey, look! Look! That’s Liu Hun! The all-rounder agent Liu Hun! The national goddess Shi Bi’er’s agent, Liu Hun! My god! He looks so manly and so cool, I like this type!” “Really, it’s him! I like Shi Qing’er more though, she looks lively and cute, and has a real campus flair. He’s so impressive, making anyone he wants famous!” “It looks like there’s a tense atmosphere between Xia Huai and Liu Hun, what’s going on? Could there be some grievance between them?” “I know! I know! It’s a long story, let me slowly gossip about it to you!” “...” A group of gossipy boys and girls had begun a long and tasty gossip feast; even middle-aged women and a few shop assistants gathered around to listen. “What do we do now? The last stones in the country all came from this store, and now he has bought them all. If we try to buy from a branch store, we definitely won’t make it in time, and I guess we won’t find anything good at other stores either,” Lin Xiaoxiang said to Liu Hun, a bit at a loss. She suddenly had an idea and then said to Liu Hun, “Why don’t we just go look elsewhere? We might find something acceptable.” Unexpectedly, Xia Huai heard Lin Xiaoxiang’s words, especially when he saw a group of people gathered together, he got even more energized and loudly sneered at Liu Hun, “Liu Hun! Listen to that woman and roll out of here early! You can’t afford to play here!” Liu Hun turned to the waitress and said, “Please give me a diamond. I don’t care about the size or color.” “Sure!” The waitress immediately took out a one-carat diamond and asked, “Is this okay?” “I guess I’ll take it. Charge it!” Liu Hun said as he handed over his card to the waitress, there and then buying the diamond that seemed hardly fitting his status as a superstar agent. “Why are you buying this diamond?” Lin Xiaoxiang asked, puzzled. She didn’t understand why Liu Hun wasn’t looking for stones but was doing these things here. “It’s nothing.” Liu Hun didn’t explain much and pocketed the diamond after receiving it. “Everyone look! Did everyone see? This so-called all-capable agent actually bought such a trashy diamond! Tell me, Liu Hun, are you planning to have Shi Bi’er wear it to some event? Like the global toilet cleaners’ competition? Hahaha...” Jia Tianhao hurriedly stood up for his boss, mocking Liu Hun loudly and venting the humiliation he had suffered earlier at Bao Li Building. “How can Liu Hun do this?! The diamond in my wedding ring was three carats! How can he have the nerve to buy a one-carat diamond? Wearing this wouldn’t match Shi Bi’s status.” “Could it be that Shi Bi is having financial troubles? She must be in a tough situation now, otherwise how could she not afford to buy diamonds?” “Ah! Just look at what Xia Huai is playing with, such a huge pile of rare stones, probably worth tens of millions! And isn’t that Lamborghini parked at the door worth millions too? Liu Hun drives an Audi! Now buying cheap stuff in public, what will people say about Shi Bi? Really don’t know what he’s thinking.” “Liu Hun is just a minor agent, how can he compare with someone like Xia Huai, the Crown Prince of Hui Le Group. Who knows how much money he has, probably enough to crush several Liu Huns!” “...” “Liu Hun, I want to interview you, what exactly was that embarrassing and disgraceful act for? Were you just spending tens of thousands to blow off steam?” Xia Huai, eyebrows raised, asked Liu Hun. Liu Hun replied to Xia Huai, “I have too many good things, I’ve really never seen such trinkets, so I just bought it for fun. People buy what they lack, and show off what they don’t have. You know what I mean?” “Hmph! Whatever, I can buy luxury cars! I can buy expensive jewelry! I can clean out all the rare stones! I lack nothing!” Xia Huai blurted out to Liu Hun, completely failing to grasp the implication in Liu Hun’s words. “Pfft!” Lin Xiaoxiang standing next to Liu Hun suddenly laughed. She really hadn’t expected Xia Huai to be so dense, walking right into Liu Hun’s trap. Sure enough, the onlookers immediately began to laugh. “Ouch! This Xia Huai, really, someone said they buy whatever they lack and he truly took the bait; isn’t this just telling everyone that his family just happens to lack luxury cars and jewelry, delivering his face to be slapped by others.” “Liu Hun truly is an all-capable agent. No wonder he can continually turn peril into safety for Shi Bi, pulling her out of so many scandals. With just one sentence, he overshadowed Xia Huai; isn’t he just saying that he, Liu Hun, has it all and just felt like dabbling in something low-end.” “Enough talk already, what good are words when Xia Huai actually has good things and money! Liu Hun’s only good with words! I really don’t think he has much to show, to be able to pull out anything good.” “...” “Liu Hun you!... Sharp-tongued indeed you really have a way!” Xia Huai didn’t expect that he had just blundered into Liu Hun’s trap. “Mr. Xia, it’s about time,” Jia Tianhao reminded him quietly from behind. Xia Huai waved his hand to Jia Tianhao, “Take them and all the stones to the airport to pick someone up. Give that Michael whatever he asks for, as long as it helps learn about the competition’s details! Be alert, don’t mess this up! I’ve still got to peel Liu Hun’s skin layer by layer here, letting these people see this so-called all-capable agent is just a clown good only at running his mouth.” Chapter 278: The Dove’s Egg “Don’t worry, boss. I’ve got everything under control,” Jia Tianhao said, and he immediately started directing his men to pack up all the stones and leave the jewelry store, while Xia Huai sat there eyeing Liu Hun, with no plans to leave; today, he intended to fully return the humiliation he had suffered to Liu Hun. “Liu Agent, their people have left, probably heading to the airport,” Lin Xiaoxiang spoke urgently. If they just gave up like this, her set of Mi Fei’s calligraphy would be like throwing money down the drain. “Let these servants please the foreigners. I’ve still got one thing to do here.
