Chapter 171 He is actually real
Lin Fan added, "However, it can't be called 'Tears of Zhao Ziqing'."
"Why?" Zhao Ziqing asked curiously.
Zhao Ziqing couldn't help but blurt out: "Why is this?"
"Because I'm with you, I will never let you shed tears." Lin Fan's voice was full of affection.
Zhao Ziqing's heart warmed, deeply moved by this deep affection. Such words were truly touching!
"Enough! What kind of drama are you putting on?" Zhou Xin and the plump woman shouted in unison, clearly displeased by the two men's affectionate display. "This is an auction, not a place for romance! Is this a confession or a proposal?"
Zhou Xin's image collapsed instantly. He angrily accused Lin Fan, "You're a woman-dependent guy. Besides trying to please women, what else can you do?"
"Who are you trying to fool with that broken stone - no, that broken piece of glass? Zhao Ziqing, do you really believe his nonsense?" Zhou Xin's words were full of sarcasm.
"What does this have to do with you?" Zhao Ziqing was immersed in sweet words, enjoying the sweetness of this love, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Zhou Xin, and her mood suddenly fell to the bottom.
"No matter what it is, I like it!" Zhao Ziqing expressed his attitude firmly.
Zhou Xin was so angry that his face turned pale. He didn't understand what kind of magic potion Lin Fan had given Zhao Ziqing to make her so devoted to him.
"Hmph, Zhao Ziqing, this fake diamond really suits you." Zhang Guilan sneered.
"You're only worthy of wearing this kind of fake stuff!" Her words were full of disdain.
"Fake diamond? Auntie, you have to look carefully, is it really fake?" Although Lin Fan was not an expert on diamonds, he firmly believed that the one given to him by the old man could not be a fake.
Zhang Guilan laughed in frustration, "Haha, you said this pink diamond, which is bigger than the goddess's tear, is real? What a joke!"
"You say it's bigger than the Goddess's Tears and therefore a fake? What kind of perverse logic is that?" Lin Fan retorted with a smile.
He continued, "Auntie, listen carefully. Once this pink diamond of mine comes out, your title of 'biggest' of the Goddess's Tears will have to be relinquished. As for the price, I guess it will be much less... From now on, the king of the pink diamond world will be mine!"
As Lin Fan spoke, Zhao Ziqing carefully examined the large Tear of the Goddess. Her expression changed slightly, and her breathing quickened.
"Is this true?" she couldn't help but ask.
"Absolutely true!" Lin Fan nodded affirmatively, then turned his gaze to the appraiser Liu Dawang standing next to the auctioneer. "We have an expert here. We can have him appraise it. I guarantee you'll be convinced."
"Appraisal? You're just looking for fun. If this pink diamond is real, I'll eat it." Zhou Xin said disdainfully.
"You're dreaming! You want to eat something worth over a billion? Dream on!" Lin Fan pouted, holding the large-sized Goddess's Tear and walking straight up to Liu Dawang. "Hello, can you help me identify it?"
Liu Dawang was a bit amused and confused. How could this auction turn out like this? But he still accepted the large Goddess's Tear. As soon as he held it in his hand, his eyebrows raised. This feeling... was so real!
He took out a magnifying glass and examined it carefully. The more he looked, the more frightened he became. Could this thing be real?
Everyone stared at Liu Dawang nervously, their hearts tightening at his reaction. If this pink diamond was real, it would cause a stir in the jewelry world.
"Mr. Liu, I'll pay one million for the appraisal fee!" Zhao Ziqing suddenly interrupted.
Liu Dawang immediately said, "Boss Su, since you said that, if I don't do the appraisal, I will be giving you no face."
Lin Fan silently complained in his heart: Are you giving Zhao Ziqing face, or are you more interested in the one million? However, Zhao Ziqing's move was indeed brilliant. Real benefits always move people more than empty promises.
Liu Dawang's hand trembled slightly as he held the large Tear of the Goddess. He examined it carefully, inch by inch, with a magnifying glass. Everyone's eyes were focused on him. The auction hall was completely silent, with only the slight sound of the magnifying glass moving in his hand.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and every second seemed infinitely long. Finally, Liu Dawang slowly raised his head, his eyes gleaming with disbelief. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement, and then slowly said, "According to my assessment..."
At this moment, the auctioneer suddenly shouted loudly: "One billion and ten million, is there anyone who wants to bid?" His voice echoed in the auction hall, breaking the tense and long wait.
No one answered, even Zhou Xin, who had been arguing, remained silent. This price far exceeded the actual value of the Goddess's Tears, and merchants would not do business without profit.
"One billion and ten million once... twice... three times, deal! Congratulations, Mr. Zhang!" The auctioneer spoke quickly, and without giving anyone time to react, he slammed the hammer down.
Zhang Guilan's face was as dark as a cloud, extremely ugly. She didn't care about the inflated price of the Goddess's Tears, but what she couldn't stand was that if the pink diamond was real, the value of the Goddess's Tears would plummet.
The gap between the largest and the second largest was a world of difference. By then, even if she wanted to hype it up, it would be difficult, because people would only talk about the pink diamond, and the Goddess's Tears, and herself, would probably become a laughing stock.
"You damn guy, I will never let you go!" Zhang Guilan glared at Lin Fan fiercely and swore with gritted teeth.
"Dear, don't be angry." The muscular man held Zhang Guilan's hand tightly and comforted her softly, "The people I called will be here soon, and that will be the day he dies."
"Go, get me an iron file!" Zhang Guilan's face twisted. Clearly, the rich woman's happy balls couldn't satisfy her hatred for Lin Fan anymore, so she decided to vent it with an iron file. In her imagination, a few scrapes would make anything hard vulnerable.
At the auction table, Liu Dawang's hands trembled. Based on his experience, he knew this pink diamond was very likely real!
"Is this diamond real?" Lin Fan asked calmly.
"Wait, I need to confirm it with an instrument." Liu Dawang said, and hurried to the professional testing instrument next to him. This instrument was originally prepared for the Goddess's Tears, but unexpectedly, it was now overshadowed by this large Goddess's Tears.
Seeing Liu Dawang treating the diamond so carefully, everyone present began to get nervous. They knew that if this top appraiser had to use instruments to test it, then this pink diamond was likely to be extraordinary.
"Oh my god, it's actually true?"
"A pink diamond this big is incredible!"
"Oh my god! This is so shocking!"
