Chapter 42: Greed

Happy Reading~

===========

Zhao Qing, her face now showed an expression of disbelief.

Her eyes opened wide, shocked by his statement.

"w-what do you mean?" she asked, wanting to know why.

If what this man said was true then she almost killed her own grandfather, truly unforgivable!

Hao Tian who heard her question immediately explained in detail,

"The jade is a curse, giving people bad luck depending on what they wish for,"

"For example, if you put it on your grandfather, his illness will automatically increase, and he will die." in a serious tone, without lying.

Continue to look at Zhao Qing's face, then towards her family members.

Want to see the reaction they show. Soon enough, a small grin formed on his lips.

Looking at the black-haired man, his face was extremely dark.

As if he was the one who planned all this, so angry.

'So he is? Interesting, I will force him to take off his mask.' Hao Tian muttered to himself, preparing to provoke him.

However, not directly in front of him but from behind.

The faces of all the Zhao family members froze, except for the mastermind.

They were all filled with disbelief, thinking that what Hao Tian said was a lie.

However, some of them also started to believe it.

Seeing that the jade looked very strange, there were black marks.

Zhao Qing, was silent for a while.

Before finally pulling the stone back, keeping it away from her grandfather.

Her heart kept beating fast, scared.

Although she also thought that what Hao Tian explained was not true, her heart said otherwise.

It was true, from the start she had been suspicious of this jade stone.

How could there be a green jade stone that had black spots in it? Does not make sense!

"I-is that true?" she asked again, trying to confirm it.

Hao Tian, continued to smile a little non-stop.

Before finally opening his mouth. "If you don't believe it, take a look."

After saying that, he took the jade stone that was in her right hand, much to her surprise.

However, Zhao Qing did not ask too far.

Intrigued by what action he wanted to take, she was not afraid if the man dared to run away.

After all, she thought of Hao Tian as an ordinary human, not a martial artist.

Suddenly her expression was filled with surprise again, seeing Hao Tian take out something.

Right from inside the jade, there was smoke.

Black, so disgusting.

As the black smoke continued to billow, a foul smell began to emerge.

Became stronger and stronger, to the point that the entire Zhao family was forced to cover their noses.

"W-what's this smell?" Zhao Qing's father said, his expression filled with disgust.

He really wanted to leave this room, feeling a bad feeling.

As if telling him to leave or else he would suffer bad luck.

Because he couldn't stand it anymore, he chose to run away and leave his wife.

"w-wait." Of course Zhao Qing's mother did not remain silent, she reflexively brought two girls behind her.

Embracing their hands, ignoring her nephew.

After all, he was not her son, except for Zhao Qing, and her two younger siblings.

'what exactly is that?' she also asked the same thing as her husband, slightly looking at Hao Tian.

Curious about who the man her daughter brought was. Very curious.

Thinking about whether he was her boyfriend or not, it was clear from his appearance.

Hao Tian, he is handsome, tall, charismatic, a doctor, and most importantly he is young!

The 5 facts above alone are enough to convince her.

When Zhao Qing's parents came out, their faces frowned slightly, seeing a woman Hao Tian had met before.

"Sister-in-law Lian? What are you doing there?" Zhao Qing's father asked, realizing the expression she was showing at the moment.

It was covered in sweat, aware of Hao Tian's actions.

'w-who is he?! Didn't that person say that the black stain on the stone would not be able to be removed? But why?!' Zhao Qing's aunt, Zhao Shulian, was furious.

Remembering the time she met a man in a white coat.

He was a doctor, who told her what to do; "If you want that old geezer to die soon then go and buy a piece of jade that has black spots on it, it is in the main market of Hangzhou." his voice was deep, like an old man.

Actually, it was also the man who told Zhao Qing. It was done on purpose.

Ordered by Zhao Shulian, without wanting to be suspected.

"gulp-"

Right now, she felt very scared knowing what would happen.

'I-I won't let it!'

After that she walked inside, very hastily.

Ignored her brother-in-law, didn't care.

Although Zhao Qing's parents were confused, they only acted indifferent.

After all, Zhao Shulian was the troublemaker in this family, harming her father-in-law.

Of all the family members, she is the greediest, most annoying.

Although the two men near them earlier were also the same, their nature was not that different from her.

Except for a woman who was close to Zhao Qing's mother, she was her husband's younger sister.

Her name is Zhao Jia, her face is very beautiful.

Has bright blue eyes, like Zhao Qing.

Kind.

Their genetic similarities came from Zhao's bloodline, so it was natural that the two of them looked alike.

Even Zhao Qing's father was the same, his appearance was not much different from his father, the previous patriarch.

Zhao Qing's grandfather.

*step-* *step-* *step-*

After Zhao Shulian went inside, she could smell how smelly this place was.

Turned to Hao Tian who was now standing near his father-in-law and nephew.

Zhao Qing, she had no intention of moving away even though felt like vomiting.

Continuing to hold it in, wanting to stay by her grandfather's side.

Covering her nose, trying not to focus too much on staring at the black clouds.

It felt like it would make her faint at any time. Scary.

Lasted for tens of seconds until Hao Tian finally finished his work. It can be seen that the jade stone has become very clean.

Without any black spots in it, beautiful.

The smell started to gush out, very comfortable.

Able to erase all impurities like black clouds, continuously removed.

However, before it was about to disappear completely, a voice sounded, very low.

"Who are you..."

The voice seemed to be aimed at Hao Tian, only he didn't care.

Continuing to show an indifferent expression, to him it was nothing.

"Who am I? Find out yourself." Even though didn't care, Hao Tian still answered.

Wanted to see whether the sound was still heard again or not, until the smoke disappeared.

Until several seconds had passed since the black cloud disappeared, the mysterious voice was still not heard.

Making the people in this room feel relieved, except for a man and a woman.

Their faces were filled with panic, not expecting this to happen.

"n-no way!"

A man shouted, he was Zhao Shulian's husband.

The second son of the previous patriarch, named Zhao Ma.
