Xiaoqi jumped out at this moment

System Xiaoqi: "Host, there's a reward!"

Jiang Zao: "Go ahead and say it."

[Reward Pack]

Advanced jade gambling skill x1

A boost in temperament: 10 points

Physical fitness adds 10 points

Jiang Zao: "Wow, does this physical fitness level mean I'm stronger?"

System Xiaoqi: "Yes, although the host's body has been modified, it wasn't particularly strong to begin with. Now, with the enhancement, it's much stronger."

Jiang Zao nodded in satisfaction. This way, she could run even further away from any stalker fans!

Jiang Zao clicked to fuse the advanced jade gambling skill, and a surge of heat spread from his head to his whole body, causing a tingling sensation.

Jiang had fallen into a deep sleep.

When I woke up again, it was already 2 p.m.

Jiang Zao, with her hair all messy, climbed out of bed.

"Ugh~ I'm so hungry~"

I called the front desk and ordered two lunches; I was starving.

Having tried so many local delicacies in Shanghai yesterday, the food at the hotel is... well, it's decent, tasty, but not particularly special.

Jiang Zao had just finished eating when Zhou Zhou sent him a WeChat message.

Zhou Zhou: [Good morning, are you awake?]

Jiang Zao: [Awake.]

Zhou Zhou: [Shall we go? Where are you? I'll come pick you up.]

Jiang Zao: [Bulgari Hotel.]

Zhou Zhou: [Okay, I'll be there in about twenty minutes.]

Jiang Zao: [Okay.]

Jiang Zao put down her chopsticks, got up and quickly washed up. She took a quick shower and changed into a brand new Chanel suit.

I quickly put on some light makeup.

Exquisite, beautiful, and fragrant.

Jiang Zao left the house carrying her Hermès diamond handbag.

Zhou Zhou was driving when she saw Jiang Zao in front of the Bulgari Hotel from afar. She knew Jiang Zao was beautiful at night, but now, in the daytime, she looked even more beautiful than at night.

The beauty is even more impactful now.

Zhou Zhou rolled down the car window with sparkling eyes: "Zao Zao, get in the car!"

Jiang Zao opened the car door and got in: "Zhou Zhou, where are we going today?"

Zhou Zhou smiled mysteriously: "You'll find out soon enough!"

The car was driving very fast.

Zhou Zhou led Jiang Zao to a secluded, high-end jade gambling market in a corner of Shanghai.

As soon as you step through this antique gate, you can smell a hint of sandalwood. Inside, there are various carved products, high ceilings, and luxurious chandeliers that gleam.

Jiang Zao asked in surprise: "A jade gambling market?"

Zhou Zhou nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Jiang Zao looked at the jade gambling market next to her. Rows of exquisite display cases displayed all kinds of jadeite rough stones. Some of these stones were still grayish-brown, while others had already been cut open, revealing a hint of green inside.

A faint scent of pine permeated the air, the smell left from cutting the rough stones, a unique aroma found only in jade gambling sites.

There were many people around, each holding something like a laser pointer. Some even had magnifying glasses, carefully observing the patterns on the rough stones, while others tapped the stones, trying to hear the echo.

The cutting area next door was even more lively. With each cut, everyone held their breath, staring intently as the sharp blade sliced ​​through the stone. It was a matter of heaven or hell.

Zhou Zhou pulled Jiang Zao to the second floor of the jade gambling market.

The second floor is even more magnificent, and the raw stones displayed there are visibly better than those on the first floor.

Zhou Zhou: "Uncle Chen! We're here!"

The middle-aged man, called Uncle Chen, turned his head and saw Zhou Zhou and Jiang Zao, a smile on his face: "Zhou Zhou, what brings you here to visit Uncle Chen, little girl?"

Zhou Zhou pulled Jiang Zao aside and introduced her to Uncle Chen: "Uncle Chen, this is my little sister Jiang Zao. She's here to play a couple of rounds today."

"Zaozao, this is my dad's good friend, Uncle Chen."

Looking at Jiang Zao's elegant demeanor, Uncle Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly, wondering which noble family's daughter she was.

Uncle Chen's smile widened: "Hello, I hope you have fun."

Jiang Zao smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Chen."

Uncle Chen looked at Zhou Zhou: "Do you need me to show you how to have a game?"

Zhou Zhou waved her hand: "No need, no need, we can do it ourselves."

Uncle Chen: "Okay, just call me if you need anything."

Zhou Zhou nodded and ran off with Jiang Zao.

Jiang Zao's inner monologue was frantic: "Xiao Qi, what's going on? You just got the skill for gambling on stones and you're already gambling on stones? You even have this predictive ability?"

System Xiaoqi said pitifully, "Host, I didn't. The system just analyzed big data and found out what the host might need."

Jiang Zao: "..."

"Okay, I misunderstood you, Xiao Qiqi. I thought I was in The Truman Show, where every move I made was being watched."

System Xiaoqi: "...Host, your imagination is truly boundless."

Jiang Zao: "Hehe."

Jiang snapped out of her daze and was pulled by Zhou Zhou to observe a row of raw stones.

Zhou Zhou: "Zao Zao, you should try picking some out too, it's quite interesting."

Jiang nodded, carefully observing the raw stone.

The rough stones were arranged in a staggered manner under the dim light. Some had particularly smooth and clean surfaces, while others were full of cracks and roughness.

But these seemingly insignificant stones contain enormous wealth, perhaps enough to last a lifetime, driving people to madness or even obsession.

With her advanced jade gambling skills and keen intuition, Jiang Zao selected a seemingly ordinary and rough rough stone that subtly revealed a warm luster. Then she casually picked up another stone that she found pleasing to the eye.

Zhou Zhou, on the other hand, was more casual. She picked up a stone, looked it over from left to right, and finally chose a stone with cracks all over its surface.

Zhou Zhou excitedly led Jiang Zao, carrying the rough stones they had chosen, and after paying for them, they went straight to have them cut.

Uncle Chen looked at the two who had finished choosing, smiled gently, and waved his hand: "Come, come, let me cut it for you."

Zhou Zhou nodded: "Zaozao, you go first."

Jiang Zao nodded and handed over the two raw stones, each the size of a baby's head, that she was holding.

Uncle Chen took them first, looked them over, and frowned slightly: "Miss Jiang, these two rough stones are not of very good quality. They are very likely just bean-type stones, and we will have to compensate for them."

Jiang Zao smiled gently: "It's okay, it's my first time, I'll just try it out."

Uncle Chen hesitated, then stopped talking. In the end, he didn't say anything more. Good words are useless against a damned ghost. He had already said everything he could think of.

Without further hesitation, Uncle Chen took the raw stone and conducted a comprehensive evaluation of its texture, color, and pattern to determine the best cutting plan.

As the cutting machine starts, the sharp blade begins to slowly contact the surface of the raw stone.

The surrounding air gradually stilled, and only the buzzing sound of the cutting machine could be heard. Many people gathered around, wanting to see what the result would be after this cut.
