The village beauty and me!

As Chen Huan made up his mind, he also pondered how his opponent would handle this final hurdle.

A treacherous and despicable fellow like Ma Yanping would absolutely not be unaware of the current situation.

After all, not everyone will believe so-called experts.

They must have had a plan in advance to deal with this situation.

Chen Huan decided to adapt to the situation and be extra cautious.

The host then launched into another emotional speech, essentially praising Ma Yanping and giving the antique market another blow.

"Stop rambling, let's reveal the answer to the final question." Chen Huan urged directly.

The people in the audience also chimed in, "Yes, stop talking nonsense and move on to the next round."

"Let's see who ends up with these five million."

The host's expression as he looked at Chen Huan was quite meaningful.

There was even a hint of mockery in his smile.

Clearly, he didn't think Chen Huan would be the ultimate lucky one.

"Since this contestant is in such a hurry, then I will grant everyone's wish."

"Please take a look, everyone." The host once again made an exaggerated gesture.

He raised his arm and lifted the red cloth covering the last antique on the table.

  

Everyone assumed that this last antique must be extraordinary, at least in terms of its unique design.

But the result was a huge surprise to everyone.

There was a rather large wooden box on the table, and it was completely empty.

Chen Huan was quite close, so he could see that there was something inside the wooden box.

It was a jade bead about the size of a pigeon egg, but it didn't look very good.

It looks obviously fake.

But the moment the red cloth was lifted, Chen Huan clearly saw a treasure aura swirling around him.

"The wooden box, it turns out, is a real antique that is easily overlooked by others."

"And the price must be quite high, it must be quite old." Chen Huan suddenly understood.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed found that the aura emanating from the wooden box was quite different from the genuine antiques from before.

It was deeper and darker in color; no wonder I recognized it at a glance.

"These bastards deliberately put a fake bead inside a real antique."

"If I only appraise the beads, regardless of whether they are real or fake, I will eventually fall into their trap and get ripped off."

Thinking of this, Chen Huan couldn't help but expose him directly.

However, just as he revealed a disdainful expression and was about to tell the truth, his gaze inadvertently fell on the obviously fake jade bead.

"Wait, does this jade bead also have a precious aura?" Chen Huan focused his gaze on it again.

Then he reached out and picked up the bead.

The host watched from the side, making no attempt to stop it whatsoever; instead, a sly glint of triumph flashed in his eyes.

"There's more to this bead than meets the eye."

"The exterior is fake; there must be a hidden compartment inside."

"Otherwise, how could there be such a strange, precious light?" Chen Huan tried his best to circulate his cultivation technique.

A large amount of vital energy is sent into the meridians around the eyes.

Furthermore, since his hand had already touched the jade bead, he received some feedback through the transfer of spiritual energy.

In the end, he was convinced that his judgment was correct; this was indeed a jade bead that was fake but contained the real thing.

Upon reaching this conclusion, Chen Huan couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

Ultimately, I underestimated the cunning and treacherous nature of the enemy.

Actually, this is a complex scheme, a trap within a trap.

The wooden box was just one layer of smoke bomb; there was another layer inside the jade bead.

"How's it going, young man? Have you reached a conclusion yet?"

"You can take a closer look, after all, it concerns the ownership of five million."

"There's another contestant, you need to work hard too!" The host kept creating a lively atmosphere.

At this moment, the onlookers below remained silent, wishing they were the ones standing on the stage.

Chen Huan put the jade bead back into the wooden box and took half a step back.

Then he said to the shorter man, "Brother, you announce the answer first."

The other party refused without hesitation, saying, "You're young, you should do it."

This is clearly a strategy; no matter what Chen Huan chooses, he will choose the opposite answer to completely seize the initiative.

Then, through trickery, he managed to keep Ma Yanping's five million.

"If you ask me, the antiques on the table are genuine," Chen Huan stated frankly and clearly.

The moment the conclusion was announced, the short man beside him and the host on stage exchanged a quick glance and smiled.

By now they were completely certain that the plan had finally succeeded.

Despite some risks, Chen Huan eventually fell into the trap.

I choose the opposite answer.

"The antiques on the stage are fake," the short man then stated his answer.

Then turn your gaze to the host.

After creating some atmosphere, the host announced directly, "This young man ultimately regrettably missed the right choice."

"The antiques on the stage are indeed fake."

After saying that, he picked up the jade bead and showed it to everyone.

And he said smugly, "Actually, this young man is overthinking things."

"This is just an ordinary glass bead, so obviously fake that anyone can tell it's not real."

"You're probably being too clever for your own good, thinking this is a trap we set, which is why you're doing the opposite, right?"

"What a pity, but it's still quite impressive that you've come this far. Remember to collect your prize later."

"Next, let's congratulate the ultimate winner..."

The host continued talking to himself.

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Huan snatched the glass bead from his hand.

"What are you doing?" The host was immediately alarmed, his eyes fixed on Chen Huan's hand.

Chen Huan grinned. "Since you say this is just a fake glass bead, it's definitely worthless."

"If it's worthless, I'll throw it away for you."

After saying that, he raised his arm and made a throwing motion.

"Don't throw it! You can't throw it!" The host was so scared that his voice changed, and his forehead was covered in sweat.

He rushed over, trying to grab Chen Huan and snatch the glass bead back.

"What do you mean?"

"A glass bead is basically just a glass bead, something that costs only ten or twenty yuan. Why are you so nervous?"

"Could it be that you were lying just now, and that this thing is actually very valuable?" Chen Huan asked loudly, raising his suspicions as he nimbly dodged the attack.

Then, turning to the onlookers, he said, "Everyone, please be the judge. Don't you think there's something fishy about this?"

"If this thing is fake, why is he sweating with fear?"

"Isn't this deceiving everyone? Are you not being treated like human beings?!"

There's a saying that goes, "Better to break the law than to incur the wrath of the masses."

Chen Huan's words immediately stirred up the anger of the crowd.

They were already very disappointed that they didn't make it to the podium to receive the five million.

In addition, the host's reaction was indeed a bit strange, so the scene became intense for a moment.

Everyone roared in anger, "Something definitely isn't right!"

"Could this really be a scam? Who is your boss?"

"Do they really think ordinary people are so easily fooled!"
