"Understood, take care, Brother Tang," Wang Yuan clasped his hands in farewell.
"Take care," Tang Xiao returned the gesture.
Watching the two walk away, Tang Xiao then turned and went back to the raw stone trading hall.
...
Qin Yu had no idea about the little episode that had just unfolded at the entrance of the raw stone trading hall. After dealing with Wang Yuan and his disciple Hu Zhuoqing, he made his way back to the podium.
Stepping on the shoulders of Wang Yuan and his disciple, Qin Yu's reputation reached its zenith.
"Miss Feng, please continue announcing the competition results," he said once the atmosphere at the venue had calmed down.
With a smile, Feng Yuqiong said, "Alright, next, I will continue to announce the results. Mr. Qu spent fifteen minutes and fifty seconds, and he got eight stones right! He secured the second place in the semifinal round!"
Eight stones right? Second place? Qin Yu's face turned ugly!
