Qin Xiao looked at Geng Yu, who was still clinging to his leg with a "please save my life" expression, and the barely perceptible smile on his lips deepened.
He gently patted Geng Yu on the shoulder.
"Alright, get up. What kind of behavior is this?"
Although his tone was calm, it carried an undeniable power.
Geng Yu immediately let go, nimbly scrambled to his feet, and instantly plastered his face with a fawning smile, rubbing his hands together like a lapdog waiting for a reward.
"Big brother, give the order! I'll go through fire and water without hesitation!" This kid's face changed quickly.
Qin Xiao dusted off non-existent dust from his trousers and gazed into the distance, seemingly planning something.
"No need to thank me."
"Do me a small favor first."
Geng Yu patted his chest loudly, looking eager to try it out. He loved tricking people the most!
"Brother, just say the word! I'll do anything for you! I'll go through fire and water for you!"
A barely perceptible glint flashed in Qin Xiao's eyes, tinged with amusement.
"Wait a minute, come with me to Jubaoge."
"When we got there, you took a fancy to a jade piece."
He paused, then added.
"I have a sworn enemy named Ye Chen. He'll definitely be going to buy that thing later too."
"What you need to do is very simple."
Qin Xiao's gaze fell on Geng Yu's face, a cold smile on his face.
"Get ahead of him and buy that jade."
"Then, when he wants it, you raise the price to an extreme."
"There's only one goal: to make him lose everything, preferably even his underwear."
Upon hearing this, Geng Yu's eyes widened instantly, and he rubbed his hands together excitedly, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. He even let out a strange "hehe" sound.
"Hehe, bro, I'm an expert at this! I'm a pro at ripping people off!"
"no problem!"
He patted his chest again, making a firm promise.
"Just you wait and see! If I don't make him lose everything, I'll change my name! I'll make that Ye guy cry for his parents!"
Qin Xiao nodded, said nothing more, and turned to walk towards the direction of Jubaoge.
Geng Yu followed behind eagerly, his mind filled with all sorts of creative ways to trick Ye Chen, and his steps became much lighter.
Before long, the two arrived at the most famous antique shop in the capital – Jubaoge.
This place is quaint and elegant, with a small storefront but an understated luxury. The air is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood and old wood, which contrasts sharply with the hustle and bustle outside. It is clear at a glance that this place has a profound history.
Upon entering the store, a woman dressed in an elegant light blue Hanfu was gracefully dusting off a blue and white porcelain vase with a feather duster.
She was slender and graceful, with a refined and elegant demeanor. Her long hair was simply tied up, revealing her smooth forehead and delicate profile. She looked like a lady who had stepped out of an ancient painting. She was none other than Liu Qingyou, the talented daughter of the Liu family.
Qin Xiao's gaze swept casually across the room, and his eyes met those of Liu Qingyou, who had looked up.
When Liu Qingyou saw Qin Xiao's handsome and extraordinary face, with a calm demeanor and an indescribable charm, her hands paused almost imperceptibly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her clear eyes.
She had never met such a special man.
Unlike the frivolous young men or mature elders she usually encountered, the man before her was refined and cultured, with deep eyes that seemed to hold the stars and the sea, and an undeniable sense of power in every gesture.
Her once calm heart was suddenly stirred by a pebble thrown in, creating ripples. She instinctively avoided eye contact, but a faint blush crept onto her ears.
Qin Xiao also noticed this beautiful woman with traditional Chinese style.
Indeed, as the information says, she is elegant and graceful, with a refined and elegant demeanor. Her well-fitting Hanfu perfectly accentuates her curvaceous figure.
However, his mind was focused on the next plan and how to precisely set a trap for Ye Chen.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Qin Xiao simply nodded politely, revealing a distant yet courteous smile.
"Hello, we're just browsing the antiques."
His voice was calm and gentle, yet carried a natural sense of distance, clearly indicating that he was merely a customer.
Liu Qingyou's cheeks seemed to rise a little more, and she quickly put down the duster in her hand, her heart still pounding uncontrollably. She composed herself and tried her best to maintain perfect posture.
Qin Xiao frowned slightly when he saw her standing there with a somewhat unfocused look in her eyes.
He stretched out his finger and snapped it lightly.
The crisp sound pulled Liu Qingyou back to reality from her brief daze.
She snapped back to her senses, her fair cheeks instantly turning bright red, as if painted with the most vibrant rouge, and she looked at Qin Xiao with a somewhat flustered expression.
"Ah...yes, yes!"
"Please come in, gentlemen. May I ask... what kind of movie would you like to watch?"
She tried to make her voice sound calm, but the slight tremor at the end betrayed her inner turmoil.
Geng Yu was oblivious to the undercurrents around him; his attention was already drawn to the glittering antiques, especially the jade section, where he could barely take it all in.
He casually walked up to a glass display case and pointed to a piece of ancient jade inside, which was warm and smooth with a faint luster. This piece of jade looked rather ordinary among a pile of gorgeous jade artifacts.
"Brother, is this the one?"
The ancient jade looked ordinary, but upon closer inspection, it seemed to exude a certain indescribable charm.
Qin Xiao's gaze also fell on the ancient jade, and at the same time, he asked the system assistant Yun Yiyi questions in his mind.
