Chapter 17: Lucky Dog
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
With her previous experience, Gu Qingchen had a rough idea of what kind of raw stone would contain jade. The little raw stone was warm and did not fluctuate much. It only made her feel slightly comfortable. Therefore, although there was jade in it, it was only a small piece of scrap jade.
As long as she could master this feeling, she would be able to know which raw stone had jade in it.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingchen felt her blood boiling. If her perception was really that accurate, she would have another way to earn money.
With Tang Feng around, Gu Qingchen specially chose large pieces of raw stones. As everyone knew, the probability of a large piece of raw stone producing jade was much higher than a small piece of raw stone.
In order to prevent others from suspecting, Gu Qingchen also specially requested a set of tools for stone gambling. Tang Feng was very generous and provided a complete set of tools.
!!Gu Qingchen, on the other hand, pretended to pick out the raw stones according to the rudiments that Zhou Xiang had taught her previously.
Gu Qingchen held a bottle of mineral water in her hand and sprinkled on some of the raw stones. Then, she used a strong flashlight to observe the condition of the raw stones. On the surface, she was very good at doing it, but in reality, Gu Qingchen had been using her hands to feel the raw stones.
Some raw stones were too big, so Gu Qingchen could only sense it bit by bit. However, her inexperienced and unprofessional behavior really made Tang Feng unable to stand it.
“Is this how you choose raw stones? Hehe, selecting a waste material is what you deserved.”
Tang Feng was naturally referring to the jade that he had just spent five million dollars on.
In the face of Tang Feng’s sarcasm, Gu Qingchen was not angry. She did not even raise her eyes and only said faintly, “Even if it’s a waste material, it’s still a very valuable waste material.”
Tang Feng suddenly felt the corners of his eyes twitch. His Virgo perfectionism had suffered another heavy blow, constantly reminding him that such a failure had appeared in his jade career.
“Lucky dog!”
After holding it in for a long time, Tang Feng only managed to squeeze out these words.
Gu Qingchen raised her eyes and looked deeply at Tang Feng. She nodded her head with a smile on her lips as if it was a matter of fact, expressing her affirmation, “That’s right, a lucky dog.”
It was even a high-class lucky dog. How could ordinary lucky dogs drop five million dollars from the sky?
She didn’t finish her sentence, but Tang Feng’s face changed, “Do you really think I’m stupid that I don’t understand what you’re trying to say!”
Gu Qingchen wasn’t afraid at all. She smiled and her eyes were clear as crystal. She blinked. “I’m just agreeing with you, aren’t I?”
Tang Feng had finally learned what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot today.
How could he expose Gu Qingchen’s intentions and admit that he was the dog?
Unless his head was really squeezed by the door.
At this moment, Tang Feng suddenly understood why Young Master Rong would look at Gu Qingchen differently. There was definitely a shadow of Young Master Rong on Gu Qingchen that could infuriate people to death!
For a moment, Tang Feng really wanted to bring Gu Qingchen and Young Master Rong together to see whether it was that old fox, Young Master Rong, or that little fox, Gu Qingchen, that was more powerful.
No matter what the result was, it seemed to be interesting to see the two of them being at each other’s throats.
“What’s your name?”
With an idea in mind, Tang Feng naturally had to take action. Towards people like Young Master Rong and Gu Qingchen, he definitely could not go against them.
“Gu Qingchen.”
The answer was very simple. Gu Qingchen’s hand did not stop. She touched a huge piece of raw stone, but unfortunately, she did not feel the warmth of it. She could only give up and look for the next piece.
“Looking at your age, don’t tell me you’re still in school?”
Tang Feng had seen countless girls. When he saw Gu Qingchen, he could tell that she was a student, even though Gu Qingchen’s temperament did not match a student.
“Mhm.”
Gu Qingchen had been busy touching the raw stones and answered perfunctorily. However, she did not expect Tang Feng to ask one question after another. Gu Qingchen could only look up and her clear eyes met that incomparably bewitching face.
“When did the young master of the Tang Group start working as a part-time account investigator? I’m sorry, I’m not an employee of your company. I don’t have the obligation to answer your questions. Also, don’t get any ideas about me, or I’ll sue you for abducting an underage girl.”
Tang Feng was completely blocked by these words.
Abducting an underage girl?
Who did she think she was?
“Hehe, if I, Young Master Tang, want a woman, why would I need to abduct her? Every day the number of women who want to be doted by me for one night can line up all the way to the capital from here!”
Tang Feng was still very confident in his charm. Gu Qingchen actually underestimated him. Even if he were to abduct a young girl, he would not choose Gu Qingchen, this flower bud.
Gu Qingchen stood up and turned her head to look behind Tang Feng. Then, she said in an extremely serious manner, “I haven’t seen any women in line. Perhaps there are many female ghosts in line.”
Pfft!
Tang Feng was instantly petrified.
He cherished his life, and he shall stay away from Gu Qingchen.
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll go back on my words? Your plan to buy raw stones will be completely ruined?”
It wasn’t like Tang Feng had never been a scoundrel before. It all depended on his mood. At this moment, he was in a very bad mood.
Gu Qingchen wasn’t worried at all. She continued to touch the raw stones while saying, “Then I’ll just keep quiet.”
Coincidentally, she still wanted to focus on the raw stones. How would she have time to deal with Tang Feng? Tang Feng felt as if he had punched cotton. He couldn’t find anything wrong with Gu Qingchen.
This time, it was good. Gu Qingchen simply ignored him and completely immersed herself in picking the raw stones.
Tang Feng was such a handsome man that had great luck with females, but when it came to Gu Qingchen, he was worse than a pile of raw stones. Tang Feng seriously suspected that Gu Qingchen was blind.
Gu Qingchen touched a few more pieces of raw stones and found that there was a warm touch again, but some of the touches were mild and some were stronger.
As a precaution, Gu Qingchen did not buy all of them. She only chose the one with the best tactile feeling.
“I’ll take this one.”
Gu Qingchen pointed at the one-person-sized raw stone and looked at Tang Feng. She implied that Tang Feng could pay for it.
Tang Feng looked at the raw stone carefully. This time, he did not say anything and directly paid for it.
“Since I bought the raw stone for you. Let’s call it even.”
Gu Qingchen was not greedy. With her current ability, she could not keep so many jade stones. She had considered buying some raw stones to store but now was not the time.
“Young Master Tang is a man of his word. You are indeed a gentleman.”
Tang Feng had been listening to Gu Qingchen’s sarcastic remarks towards him, and he was not used to her praising him.
“Humph, I’ve always been a gentleman.”
Gu Qingchen looked for Zhou Xiang and pointed at the raw stone that she had just bought. “Boss Zhou, please help me with this raw stone. I’ll pay for the stone cutting fee.”
The raw stone from before was very small and did not take much time. However, this kind of large raw stone would take a lot of time and effort. Even if Zhou Xiang did not want money, Gu Qingchen would still give it to him.
Zhou Xiang was also a straightforward person. Moreover, Gu Qingchen had just received five million and even paid off the debt. There was no need for her to be unreasonable.
“Alright, no problem. Leave it to me, Old Zhou, for sure. I’m not bragging, but my stone-cutting skills are definitely top-notch.”
