Lu Zhanting had adopted the attitude of a bystander.

But still, he’d been keeping an eye on Yun Wei this whole time, not once letting her leave his sight from the moment she’d put her diamond necklace around her neck.

Had Yun Wei seen that Shen Weixia was here at the party? Is that how she’d gotten the confidence to spoil Hua Shasha’s plan to cozy up to Jian Zhifei?

As he watched the seemingly frail and innocent Yun Wei take down Hua Shasha, Lu Zhanting’s lips involuntarily curled into a smile without him even realizing it.

If he hadn’t seen for himself how agile and quick-witted Yun Wei was, he too would’ve fallen for her frail, innocent persona.

At that moment, all eyes were on Shen Weixia.

Shen Weixia had built his reputation at a young age. He had sharp eyes and was able to discern and evaluate a diverse range of precious gems with a precision that was superior to cutting-edge tools.

Many super-wealthy people or families who’d been in the jewelry trade for generations clamored to have Shen Weixia as a guest at their events.

However, as someone who valued his space and freedom, Shen Weixia didn’t like to be tied down by anything and never stayed in one place for too long.

But, since it was Jian Zhifei’s birthday today, he’d accepted the invitation and chosen to attend the party as a guest.

Sensing that everyone’s eyes were on him, he took a leisurely sip of his red wine and said, “Did you all really think I’d just agree to do it simply because you guys suggested that I should appraise the real one from the fake?”

Stepping forward, Jian Zhifei replied, “Shen Weixia, can you do me a favor here, please? As a birthday gift to me?”

Shen Weixia eyed Jian Zhifei from head to toe before saying slowly, “Then you should all be aware of my rule when it comes to appraising something. I won’t look at stuff that’s of substandard quality….”

Hua Shasha quickly interrupted him. “This isn’t something of substandard quality. There’s only one of this diamond necklace in the world. It’s a very rare and priceless item!”

Without so much as a glance at Hua Shasha, Shen Weixia continued, “Anything that I look at and find to be fake, I will personally crush to pieces.”

“Of course. We’re all aware of your rules,” Jian Zhifei nodded in agreement, adding, “If it turns out to be fake, please go ahead and destroy it.”

Hearing this, Hua Shasha looked especially confident. She knew for sure that the necklace that she’d given Jian Zhifei was the real deal and the one that Yun Wei was wearing around her neck was a replica.

Not wanting to waste any more time, she said hastily, “Of course, by all means destroy the fake one. There’s no use keeping a fake.”

Shen Weixia was slenderly-built and blessed with exquisite features. Even the way he moved held an air of indescribable grace and elegance.

He casually walked over to them and said, “Show me the stuff.”

Jian Zhifei removed her necklace and placed it on the table.

Yun Wei followed suit, removing her necklace and placing it on the table.

Side by side, the two necklaces had the same design and similarly shaped and set diamonds that almost had the same radiant brilliance.

Yun Wei continued to smile innocently.

Hua Shasha must have spent a small fortune to have the replica made to this likeness, as it wasn’t an easy task.

This also indirectly proved that Hua Shasha had been scheming for a long time to scam Yun Wei of her necklace.

Shen Weixia took his seat at the table.

Everyone’s curiosity was piqued. This was their first time seeing Shen Weixia in action making an appraisal of jewelry.

And their curiosity was especially piqued because, to the untrained eye, these necklaces looked exactly the same.

They were curious to find out how and with what tools Shen Weixia would go about distinguishing the real necklace from the fake.

Hua Shasha loudly proclaimed, “It goes without saying that Yun Wei’s necklace is a fake.”
