Even the box used for packaging is already extraordinarily precious, so what could the main gift be? Almost everyone was exceedingly anticipating it.
At this moment, the old lady had already opened the box, revealing the actual gift inside, and those nearby craned their necks, eager to get a first glimpse.
Qin Qing, Elder Master Qu, and even the two brothers of the second generation of the Qu Family with their respective wives, and even Qu Yuancheng wanted to step forward a bit.
But when they truly saw the gift inside the box, everyone's expressions simultaneously froze completely.
Each person's expression was remarkably similar, mouths slightly agape as if they could swallow an egg, unable to close for a long time.
Seeing these expressions, others were also surprised and moved forward, barely able to see the gift inside the priceless box.
However, upon seeing the contents, almost everyone had the same expression, with mouths agape, not knowing what to say or what reaction was appropriate.
At this moment, a strange silence fell over the scene, as if the entire top-floor banquet hall had suddenly emptied.
"Is this... a Luminous Pearl?"
After a long while, Qu Yuancheng couldn't help but swallow with difficulty, asking.
Because the gift placed inside this Agarwood box was actually a milky white pearl about the size of a fingertip.
Looking at this pearl in the box, it did not seem large, just slightly bigger than an ordinary pearl, and its luster wasn't exceptional, far less smooth and round than those sold in the market.
If this pearl weren't placed inside this priceless top-quality Agarwood box, they would have assumed it was an extraordinarily ordinary pearl.
They thought back and forth and seemed only to find that the Luminous Pearl was the most plausible explanation, that only such a pearl could match this priceless box.
"No..."
But Qin Fang gently shook his head, denying their guess, saying it was not a Luminous Pearl at all...
"Uh..."
Qu Yuancheng was stunned, his expression indescribably strange.
In fact, the others around had similar expressions, each feeling a bit deceived.
"Hahaha, I knew it... Acting all mysterious, and it turned out to be just an ordinary pearl... Judging by the quality, I bet I could buy several pounds for One Thousand Yuan... Hmph, I suspect that top-quality Agarwood might be fake too, perhaps sprayed with some fragrance to give it that smell."
Qin Fang had just denied everyone's speculation, leaving them a bit disappointed, but Qu Yuanliang seemed to seize an opportunity, immediately jumping out to roar at Qin Fang, so excited that he failed to notice the near killing gaze from the Elder Master over yonder...
However, this time no one echoed Qu Yuanliang's foolish words, instead, they looked at him with disdain, if not for being reputable dignitaries present, they might have directly cursed him as a fool.
Not to mention the peculiarities of this pearl, but merely the box of top-quality Agarwood was already a pinnacle gift, even without giving anything else, this alone was unmatched at the entire event.
Since this pearl was so solemnly placed by Qin Fang inside the box, it would certainly not be as simple as it appeared.
Qin Fang was rather calm, watching Qu Yuanliang jump up and down like a monkey without rushing to explain, just quietly watching while sipping wine, letting Qu Yuanliang make a fuss.
After a while, Qu Yuanliang found himself being watched like a monkey, his face turned red and blue; if they were on a lower floor, he might have lost his temper already. But on this top floor, either the people were direct descendants of the Qu Family or famous Hong Kong Island tycoons, none of whom he dared to offend.
Eventually, Qu Yuanliang could only obediently step aside under the angry glares of the three heads of the Qu Family, not daring to make a sound, at most squatting there cursing Qin Fang.
Such curses were destined to be useless since Qin Fang didn't even acknowledge them.
The crowd quietly waited for his continued explanation; at least they were somewhat curious about what was so special about this Millennium Clam Pearl.
"This is not an ordinary pearl..."
As expected by everyone, no one found it strange; indeed, it would have been odd if it was an ordinary pearl.
"But... a Millennium Clam Pearl!"
Qin Fang said with unparalleled calmness, "To be precise, this pearl has been in existence for nearly two thousand years..."
"Hiss~~"
Hearing Qin Fang's introduction, although they didn't quite understand what was so special about this Millennium Clam Pearl, the fact it existed for nearly two thousand years was enough to leave them speechless.
