Chapter 864 Don’t flirt with me
The stone cutting was still going on, and it had been cut halfway. Those who had bet on having jade were already disappointed, but they continued to watch as it was not the end.
However, as all this went on, a hint of green appeared, and the stone cutter immediately shouted excitedly: "Green..."
When they heard that the jadeite inside the jewelry had turned green, the disappointment of those who had bought it suddenly rekindled and they shouted excitedly.
"It's green, it's green..."
“Finally it’s green…”
Those who bought raw materials that did not contain jade were immediately disappointed and dejected.
"How come it's green? Hasn't it been green all along?"
"Yeah! It's so infuriating..."
I was happily waiting to make money, but when I cut it halfway, it turned out green.
The owner of the gambling stone shop finally felt relieved. He naturally hoped to cut out jadeite, otherwise, wouldn’t he be losing money?
"It is a medium-quality golden jadeite..."
After the stone-cutting master washed away the powder on the outside of the jade with clean water, he saw the quality of the jade clearly and became even more excited.
This is a medium-quality golden jadeite! Generally, it is very difficult to decipher jadeite of medium quality or above.
Upon hearing the master's words, the gambling stone shop owner's first reaction was not excitement or happiness, but surprise. He looked at Gu Ning in surprise, and the counter clerk also looked at Gu Ning in surprise.
Because Gu Ning's bet was on the golden-thread jadeite.
How did she know that? Did she just guess it?
However, when she heard that the answer was golden jadeite, she looked calm, as if she was not just guessing, but expected it. However, even gods cannot tell the difference between jade and jade, she should not have known that it was golden jadeite! Oh my God! It was a ghost.
The owner of the gambling stone shop felt mixed emotions. He really wanted to ask Gu Ning how she knew that, but he knew very well that she would never tell him, so he did not go over.
As for losing to the other party with odds of twenty times, which is two million, since he made the bet, he naturally would not be reluctant to pay it.
After a while, the jade was finally unwrapped. It was a golden-thread jadeite that was nearly the size of a basketball.
Then the people who had placed bets went to exchange their money. Gu Ning was not in a hurry and was the last one to go. There were only a few people there anyway, so it would soon be her turn.
Those who bet 10,000 or 20,000, with a payoff of 50%, would get 50,000 or 100,000, and they were overjoyed.
It was Gu Ning's turn. The counter clerk looked at Gu Ning with a complicated look. He had looked down on Gu Ning before, but now he couldn't look down on him at all.
"Transfer the money!" Gu Ning said, taking out his card number card and handing it to the counter clerk.
"Okay," the counter clerk responded and immediately transferred the money to Gu Ning.
After the account was transferred, the owner of the gambling jade shop couldn't help but speak: "Miss, I'd like to ask, how did you know that there was gold-thread jade in this rough material?"
"Guessed it," said Gu Ning.
Although the owner of the gambling stone shop knew that Gu Ning would not tell the truth, he was still a little disappointed after hearing the answer in person. However, since the other party was unwilling to tell the truth, he naturally did not ask any more questions.
Then, Gu Ning went out.
Gu Ning did not leave the gambling stone street immediately, but went to other shops for a while and bought a dozen rough pieces of medium to high-quality jadeite before leaving and going straight back to the hotel.
After returning to the hotel, he drove the car directly to the hotel gate, handed the car keys to the hotel parking attendant, asked him to park the car, and Gu Ning drove directly into the hotel gate.
As soon as Gu Ning entered the elevator, Xu Jinglin came in.
When he saw Xu Jinglin, Gu Ning was stunned and a little surprised. It was him, Xu Jinglin! Yes, Gu Ning knew Xu Jinglin, but not because of Xu Jingchen, but because he knew this person in his previous life, and the Xu family admitted it.
Indifferently, the other party didn't recognize her anymore.
Xu Jinglin did not recognize Gu Ning as the girl who had a fierce fight outside the hotel last night. If Qiao Ya and Gao Yi were there too, he would have been able to identify her.
However, he noticed the stunned and surprised look on the other person's face when he saw him. It was not because of his handsome appearance, but because she seemed to know him, so she couldn't help but blurt out: "Miss, do you know me?"
Because this is Hong Kong, Xu Jinglin also thought that Gu Ning was from Hong Kong, so he spoke in Hong Kong dialect.
"Why do you think I know you?" Gu Ning asked, also in Hong Kong dialect. It was not surprising that he could see clues from her expression. How could the heir of the Xu family be a simple person?
"I can tell from your reaction when you saw me," Xu Jinglin said with a very firm tone.
"I just think you look a bit like a friend of mine," Gu Ning said.
"Really? Why does this sound so familiar? As if it's a phrase commonly used by the opposite sex when chatting up people?" Xu Jinglin raised the corner of his mouth with a smile, with a bit of evil and ruffian spirit.
Gu Ning's mouth twitched, and he rolled his eyes at him without any reserve, saying contemptuously, "You were the one who spoke to me first, okay? If it was a flirtation, you were the one flirting with me, not me flirting with you."
Being despised, Xu Jinglin did not feel unhappy at all. Instead, he thought the girl was very interesting and could not help but say a few more words: "Really? Then consider it as me hitting on you!"
"You'd better not flirt with me, or you will regret it." Gu Ning reminded. Yes, it was a friendly reminder, not a malicious threat.
Of course, she knew that the other party had no romantic interest in her, he just wanted to test her because he saw that she knew him.
Because as the heir of the Xu family, his noble status also comes with risks. There are many people who secretly want him dead, so he wants to test Gu Ning to see if he is an enemy or a friend.
Yes, that’s what Xu Jinglin thought.
Sometimes, when one person wants to deal with another person, he doesn't necessarily have to use someone with great skills. Sometimes, a beauty trap is much easier to succeed than using someone with great skills.
"Oh! How do you regret it?" Hearing this, Xu Jinglin asked with interest.
Just then, they arrived at the 15th floor. Gu Ning lived on the 15th floor and Xu Jinglin lived on the 16th floor.
When the elevator door opened, Gu Ning smiled mysteriously at Xu Jinglin, with some evil intentions in her heart, and said, "Xu Jingchen, call me sister."
After saying that, the person walked out of the elevator, leaving Xu Jinglin stunned in the elevator.
"Xu Jingchen called me sister"? She knew Xu Jingchen? So when she said he was like a friend of hers, she was referring to Xu Jingchen, and she must have known who he was.
Xu Jinglin suddenly felt a sense of frustration. His behavior just now was like that of a clown, which made him extremely helpless. However, he had no intention of taking his anger out on Gu Ning.
