Chapter 85: A Counterfeit Passed off as Genuine
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Previously, a collector sent an amber for inspection. Two appraisal companies certified that it was not an antique. The collector claimed that the amber was a family heirloom. When Gubelin did the appraisal, they did not realize that it was an antique. Eventually, Shen Qianshu suggested to carry out a destructive test, and they found out that there was wild bugs’ DNA inside the amber, thus confirming that it was an antique.
Gubelin and the other two companies came together to compensate the collector.
Not only did Gubelin not get hate after this matter, their reputation actually rose.
“You…” Zhou Lulu refused to give in. “If the results of the inspection say that this jewel is genuine and there is nothing wrong with my certificate, you need to apologize to me and quit the jewelry appraisal industry. Vice versa, I will do the same too. Do you dare to bet?”
Inside the laboratory, there was complete silence.
Decked in white lab coats, all the appraisers stared at each other.
Knowing that there will be someone backing her up, Zhou Lulu stared at Shen Qianshu triumphantly.
“Do you dare?”
“I am not going to beg to you,” Shen Qianshu calmly said.
“Shen Qianshu, aren’t you very cocky usually? Why did you chicken out at such a critical moment? You just don’t dare right? Such a coward!”
Shen Qianshu lifted her eyelids slightly and took a look at her. “I am afraid that if you lose, you will be shameless, go back on your words, pretend to cry and look pitiful. That will be so annoying.” Her tone dripped with sarcasm.
Chen Qiuxiang and a few others sniggered.
“You…” Zhou Lulu raged in fury.
The laboratory’s boss walked over and said, “What are you guys quarreling about?”
Zhou Lulu immediately felt aggrieved and went forward to complain about the whole situation to the boss. She mainly talked about how without her permission, Shen Qianshu wanted to carry out the inspection again even though it had already been certified.
The boss had something on with Zhou Lulu, and this was something that everybody in the office knew about.
The boss was a good boss, but the same could not be said regarding his private life.
Anybody that could climb to this position was not stupid. After knowing the results, the boss immediately asked everybody to carry out another round of inspection.
Zhou Lulu fumed with anger, and her eyes watered.
The boss rubbed her waist and said, “Do you have to be like this? I will buy you a necklace later.”
Zhou Lulu instantly became happy, and she stared gleefully at Shen Qianshu.
Chen Qiuxiang retorted. “Is this something to be proud of?”
The boss had already left.
Zhou Lulu said, “Wait till the day I become the lady boss. I will sack the both of you.”
Chen Qiuxiang was speechless.
Shen Qianshu was speechless too.
With a brain like yours, you still hope to be a lady boss?
Who gave you the confidence?
In the end, the results showed that the batch of jewels were all counterfeits.
A batch of counterfeits passed off as genuine jewels.
AG building.
The jewelry department’s executive director came in a hurry. Ye Ling was reading the gossip on the Internet. Li Zhiyuan and Shen Qianshu’s gossip spread widely everywhere since early in the morning. Ye Ling pretended to be busy with work, but his gaze was hard and cold. He slightly leaned back on his chair, and his handsome face was as cold as frost. His light gaze covered the murderous look in his eyes.
Zhong Ran, who was always brave and daring, did not dare to utter a single word. He was scared that Ye Ling would kill him if he said something wrong.
The secretaries were busy with the work on their hands and did not dare to say any nonsense.
The executive director pushed open the door and walked in. “CEO, there is something wrong with our jewels.”
He passed an inspection report to Ye Ling. Normally, this kind of small matter was handled by him and did not need to bother Ye Ling. However, this batch of jewels was worth two hundred million. They were not normal jewels. If something wrong happened, he did not dare to take responsibility.
Two hundred million ah…
My God.
It was actually fake, simply too scary.
Ye Ling took the report and said, “All of them are fake?”
“Yes.”
“Useless beings! Who was the one following on this matter originally? Didn’t we already ask someone to send the jewels for an appraisal when they got shipped in?”
