Hearing this, Meng Zhuqing's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Why don't you guys make a bet?" Meng Zhuqing suddenly said.
"A bet? What kind of bet?" Upon hearing the word "bet," Ge Hua's expression immediately turned cautious.
After all, it was because of a bet with Chen Mo last time that he lost an uncut jade worth five hundred million.
Meng Zhuqing said, "If you call and that Master Mo scolds Chen Mo, you win. Chen Mo must then purchase one hundred million worth of items from your store. If Master Mo does not blame Chen Mo, then Chen Mo wins, and Chen Mo can pick any three pieces of jade from your store. How about it?"
Upon hearing this wager, Ge Hua was instantly tempted.
Even if he lost, it would only be three pieces of jade, not three pieces of jadeite. The price of jade was much lower than that of jadeite.
Conversely, if he won, the other party would have to purchase one hundred million worth of items from here.
"What? Young Master Ge doesn't even have this much courage?"
"Do you know why we all like Chen Mo? It's because Chen Mo possesses the courage and spirit that other men lack."
Meng Zhuqing's words instantly ignited Ge Hua's confidence.
"A bet is a bet. I'm just afraid this kid Chen Mo won't dare to accept!" Ge Hua said mockingly, looking at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo couldn't help but twitch his lips. He glanced at Meng Zhuqing beside him, unsure of what the latter was plotting.
Asking Ge Hua to call Mo Chengguo wasn't asking for trouble?
Meng Zhuqing leaned in and whispered to Chen Mo, "Whether you win or lose, you'll get these three Hetian jades. And later, you can just go apologize to Mo Chengguo. As a son-in-law like you, he wouldn't bear to scold you."
Chen Mo looked at Meng Zhuqing with suspicion, feeling that Meng Zhuqing was digging a pit for him.
"Are you in or not? If not, get lost immediately!" Ge Hua questioned again.
Chen Mo looked at Ge Hua's arrogant demeanor and could only reply, "What am I afraid of? Even if I lose, it's just one hundred million. Compared to Mr. Ge's generosity, what is that?"
However, Chen Mo's words touched a nerve with Ge Hua.
Recalling yesterday's events, Ge Hua's face instantly turned extremely unpleasant.
He took out his phone and directly dialed Mo Chengguo's number.
Unfortunately, after the last incident, Mo Chengguo simply refused to answer his calls. He called more than a dozen times, but the other party was always unreachable, clearly having blocked him.
Chen Mo asked, "What? Is Uncle Mo's phone not connecting?"
Ge Hua wouldn't admit that he had been blocked. He could only argue, "Master Mo is usually very busy. Perhaps he's in a meeting. I'll contact him again later."
He also planned to borrow a phone later. He didn't believe the other party wouldn't answer then.
"Is that so? Then let me try calling." Chen Mo took out his phone and dialed Mo Chengguo's number.
Within a few seconds, Mo Chengguo's call was connected.
Chen Mo even deliberately turned on the speakerphone, "Uncle Mo, it's Chen Mo."
Mo Chengguo's hearty laughter echoed from the phone, "Hahaha, you brat, the sun must have risen from the west for you to call me today!"
Upon hearing Mo Chengguo's voice, Ge Hua's face instantly turned crimson.
Chen Mo asked, "Ge Hua just called you, but he couldn't get through. He said you were busy, so I'm calling to ask."
"Ge Hua? That kid from Yan Ru Yu?" Mo Chengguo's tone immediately changed. His originally hearty laughter gradually disappeared.
"Yes, it's him," Chen Mo replied.
Mo Chengguo said coldly, "I've blocked him directly. Even if he calls for a year, he might not get through."
Chen Mo looked at Ge Hua with surprise and amusement.
Meanwhile, Ge Hua's face had never been as unsightly as it was today. His face had turned from red to black.
"What did he want from me? And why are you guys together?" Mo Chengguo asked curiously.
Hearing Mo Chengguo's inquiry, Ge Hua immediately stepped forward, snatched Chen Mo's phone, and said with immense agitation, "Uncle Mo, I am Ge Hua! You don't know, this Chen Mo is just a hypocritical piece of trash. Don't be fooled by him!"
Mo Chengguo's cold voice sounded, "Ge Hua, if you cannot give me a reasonable explanation today, my Mo family will sever all ties with your Yan Ru Yu from now on!"
Ge Hua was startled.
However, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, because he knew that as long as he revealed Chen Mo's situation, Mo Chengguo would definitely be furious!
Perhaps he had saved Mo Xiaojing's happiness, and Mo Chengguo might even praise him.
After all, what father would stand by and watch his son-in-law deceive his daughter's feelings!
Ge Hua said impatiently, "Uncle Mo, do you know who is standing beside him right now? It's not Mo Xiaojing! It's another woman, and that woman even said that Chen Mo is her boyfriend!"
"Uncle Mo, this kind of man is simply scum, a degenerate! You absolutely cannot let him be with Xiaojing, it would ruin Xiaojing's lifelong happiness."
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a sound of slamming the table echoed from the phone.
Chen Mo thought, it seems he had really angered Mo Chengguo.
Ge Hua's face was filled with excitement and smugness. He could also tell that Mo Chengguo was furious.
"Hmph! When did it become your turn to comment on what Chen Mo does? What are you?"
The sudden reprimand froze Ge Hua's expression.
Chen Mo was also stunned.
Even Meng Zhuqing, standing beside Chen Mo, looked surprised.
Ge Hua recovered and hurriedly said, "Uncle Mo, Chen Mo is fooling around outside. This matter..."
However, before Ge Hua could finish speaking.
Mo Chengguo's angry voice rang out again, "Don't you understand what I'm saying? What he does outside is our family's business. Don't meddle in affairs that don't concern you. How my son-in-law plays outside has nothing to do with you, understand?!"
Ge Hua was completely dumbfounded.
He stared at the phone screen with a look of utter disbelief.
If he hadn't remembered Mo Chengguo's phone number and voice, he would have doubted if the person on Chen Mo's phone was indeed Mo Chengguo.
"Beep beep beep!"
The call was quickly hung up, emitting a series of busy tones.
"Mr. Ge, please give me the phone," Chen Mo said, reaching out to Ge Hua.
Hearing this, Ge Hua dazedly returned the phone to Chen Mo.
Even now, he hadn't recovered from the shock.
Seeing Ge Hua's expression, Chen Mo was also somewhat surprised by the outcome. He looked at Ge Hua and said gratefully, "Thank you again, Mr. Ge, for your generosity."
"As for the jade, I'll take three pieces of top-grade Hetian jade, and make them large ones."
Just three pieces? Top-grade Hetian jade? And large ones?!
Hearing Chen Mo's increasingly excessive demands, Ge Hua felt like his lungs were about to explode.
