Semua Bab Oops, I've Been Exposed: Bab 421 - Bab 430

Ginger was young and had little exposure to the outside world. However, she was exposed to collecting at a young age, so she knew a thing or two about auctions.She knew that the world's top-ranked auction houses would organize auctions during spring and autumn to attract collectors from around the world.However, this was the first time that she heard of an auction being held on a cruise ship.Gerald smiled and said, "Because it's convenient to do it on a ship."Everyone in the car was acquainted with each other, so Gerald didn't see the need to hide anything. He said, "There are strict regulations about trading antiques and cultural relics in many countries. It is illegal to trade ivory carvings, ancient bronzeware, and other excavated relics. It's too risky to trade these privately. So, if we run an auction out in the ocean, we wouldn't be bound by these restrictions."Ginger finally understood what he meant and said, "I see! No wonder people claimed that no one would suffe

"Are you talking to me?" Woody asked indifferently.Marlow widened his eyes and scolded, saying, "Who else would I be talking to? I don't see anyone else here. "You ignorant fool. Get your filthy hands off her!"Marlow had the same thought as everyone else—Woody had to be a scammer. He had probably used shameless means to trick Ginger, who was ignorant and sheltered from the world.If Woody was from a rich or influential family, Marlow would turn a blind eye to him. At least then, he would be deserving of Ginger because of his status.Marlow sized Woody up and saw that he was dressed in nothing branded. He didn't even have any luxury goods to elevate his status!This was enough to prove that he wasn't associated with any low-profile and rich families. He must be a poor bumpkin!Someone like him would never deserve Ginger.Marlow had considered Ginger to be his ever since a long time ago. So, she was off-limits to any and every man.Marlow was like a stray dog protecting

Woody had been looking into the ring over the past few days.However, he didn't get any answers, and progress was slow. So, he carried it with him, hoping he would solve its mystery at some point.But Ginger's casual comment had given Woody an epiphany!So, it turned out this was the secret of the emerald ring.No wonder Alfie could become a prodigious doctor at such a young age.This explained it all!However, Alfie had been too arrogant.He thought that things would play out e like how the novels depicted it to be. He would become the chosen one by possessing the mysterious emerald ring, standing above everyone else, and conquering all.But it was a shame that Alfie ruined the great deck of cards he had.He wouldn't have died so tragically too if he was slightly more humble.As Woody recollected himself, he continued walking forward.Meanwhile, Ginger was confused as she was dragged to the booth before them.The exhibit here didn't have antiques displayed in glass cabin

Woody took out his phone, ready to make an online payment.Just then, Ginger tried to pick the stone up. It was heavier than she imagined.It was merely a small stone, but it weighed about 45 pounds. It was strenuous to even hold up."Let me do it," Woody smiled and said.Ginger strenuously carried it up, unwilling to back down. "I can do it."Meanwhile, the booth owner was overjoyed when he received the notification about the payment.In truth, he'd bought the stone at a low price. It was incomparable to the prices a few years back, but he had still made a profit.At least, he had earned his entry ticket back. So, his trip was not wasted.As Woody and Ginger were about to leave, a young man came and held onto the sides of the booth, puffing and panting.His eyes carried a look of urgency as he looked around the booth. "Sir, where is the Epochal Seal?" he asked.The booth owner was startled. "W-What seal?""The Epochal Seal! It was the brown agate with tiger stripes th

Flames of anger danced in Lionel's eyes. He was ready to lay his hand and teach Woody and Ginger a lesson."You will pay a painful price for what you said, you punk!" Lionel slowly lifted his right hand, and gray energy grains began forming around it.Instantly, everyone surrounding them could feel an intense and oppressive energy."Only an Innate Level martial arts practitioner can condense their strength!""Damn, Master Smith has such great powers at such a young age. It's astounding!""This couple is doomed! This is why we should never act recklessly."Lionel laughed as he said to Woody, "Don't think I won't kill someone just because the ship hasn't left yet. I can kill you and chuck you somewhere. Then, I'll throw your body to feed the sharks once we reach the open sea."However, Woody didn't feel threatened. Instead, he stepped forward and protected Ginger behind him.A fight was about to break out. Then, a gentle and crisp voice sounded out, "What's going on?"It was
