“Great, then let’s begin! Let me pay the bill first,” said Gu Ning. Afterwards, she carried the raw jade material to the counter. She was busy talking with Jiang Wenliang just then, so she didn’t pay the bill.
Leng Shaoting stayed at the side, because Gu Ning told him not to stand out right now.
When Gu Ning went to pay the bill, Jiang Dashun looked at Jiang Wenliang with confidence. “Jiang Wenliang, you’re lucky today. A rich girl is willing to do you a favor, but you’re still doomed to fail, because she’s an idiot! Ha-ha, ha-ha.”
In Jiang Dashun’s eyes, Gu Ning was simply a rich idiot.
The onlookers in the store had the same idea. They were also jealous because they didn’t have so much money.
It was five million yuan! Many of them had never seen so much money throughout their entire lives! They couldn’t even imagine it.
Everyone was jealous of Jiang Dashun’s good luck.
“In fact, the Jiang family’s ancestral house isn’t worth five million yuan. If she directly gives you the amount of money, you might have a chance to be successful again, but unfortunately you won’t.” Jiang Dashun didn’t say that until after they signed the agreement. If he had said that earlier, Gu Ning would directly give Jiang Wenliang five million yuan. In that case, he wouldn’t have the opportunity to win the money and Jiang Wenliang could seize the chance to defeat him.
Jiang Wenliang had skills, so Jiang Dashun was jealous of him and schemed against him. Jiang Dashun made Jiang Wenliang lose everything so that Jiang Wenliang couldn’t be successful anymore.
However, he was still worried in his heart. He was afraid that Gu Ning might still give Jiang Wenliang a lot of money even if she lost the bet.
Normally, people wouldn’t give strangers money, but Gu Ning already took out five million yuan, which meant she might do something even crazier!
Hearing Jiang Dashun’s words, the onlookers agreed with him. It was true that Jiang Wenliang could become successful again with five million yuan. Why didn’t Gu Ning do that? Instead, she chose to take a gamble. She could easily lose the money to Jiang Dashun.
Everyone believed that Gu Ning was dumb. They couldn’t understand rich people’s thoughts.
Jiang Wenliang remained silent when Jiang Dashun made fun of him, because he was also anxious. However, since he agreed with Gu Ning, he still felt some anticipation.
Before long, Gu Ning came back and went to the stone-cutting area. In order to speed up, she ordered the three stone-cutters to cut the stones together.
Because this was a large store, there were three stone-cutting machines. Gu Ning saw that, so she picked up three raw jade materials.
“Miss, may I know where you are from? You don’t sound like a local citizen.” When they were free, Jiang Dashun asked Gu Ning. He wanted to know her background. Gu Ning was willing to bet five million yuan, which meant she was highly likely to be born in a rich family.
Nevertheless, it was her idea to have a bet, so he wasn’t scared even if she was from an influential family.
“The Capital University,” Gu Ning said.
“How much do you know about stone-gambling?” Jiang Dashun continued.
“I rely on my senses, but I have cut out jade before,” said Gu Ning with a naive look.
Hearing that, Jiang Dashun and many other people disdained her again.
“Your senses? That’s ridiculous. It’s very difficult to cut out jade. How could you rely on your senses to do that? You’re really bold!” Fang Lin rolled her eyes at Gu Ning with contempt.
“You’re bold too! You betrayed your husband and have no moral standards. I’m brave enough to get what I want morally. Anyway you’re not comparable to me at all. In fact, there is nothing you can compare with me. I feel humiliated that you would even dare to judge me.” Gu Ning didn’t hesitate to laugh at Fang Lin. She held no respect for her.
Although she understood it wasn’t right because it had nothing to do with her, she just couldn’t stand it.
“You…” Fang Lin was mad and her face distorted in anger, but she had no idea how to argue against Gu Ning.
“Mind your attitude!” Jiang Dashun angrily warned Gu Ning. Fang Lin was his woman now, so Gu Ning was also humiliating him.
However, when he shouted at Gu Ning, he felt a cold look aimed at his back. He was frightened and even trembled a little.
It was Leng Shaoting’s cold look. If Gu Ning hadn’t told him to stand at the side, he would have protected her behind his back.
“What? Can’t I fight back when she’s judging me? It’s unfair. And you’re selfish! Don’t think that everyone will tolerate your selfishness. Some people might not dare to argue with you because you’re rich, but there are many people who are richer than you in this world. You can easily offend someone you shouldn’t mess with and then you’ll be unable to bear the consequences.” Facing Jiang Dashun’s warning, Gu Ning wasn’t displeased. She replied lazily with great pride, but she had an air of authority, which couldn’t be ignored.
“You…” Jiang Dashun was struck dumb. Although he was angry, he had to admit Gu Ning was right. After all, she quickly bet five million yuan on the raw jade materials, so obviously she was very rich.
Jiang Dashun, on the contrary, didn’t have that much money. As a result, he was a little scared of Gu Ning.
If he really offended her, he might lose more than what he could afford.
Jiang Dashun said nothing further, but he felt unhappy, so he could only vent his anger on Fang Lin. “Stop it now. Don’t cause me trouble every day.”
“I…”
After being criticized by Jiang Dashun, Fang Lin was angry, but she didn’t dare to argue with him because he looked really mad.
Jiang Dashun wouldn’t spoil her. When he was in a good mood, he would be nice to her, otherwise he would vent his anger on her.
However, Fang Lin was still willing to be his girlfriend, because he was very generous.
At the same time, the stone-cutting machines began to work, and everyone turned to focus on them.
Even though they didn’t think there was jade, they were still nervous with anticipation.
No one was more nervous than Jiang Wenliang, while Gu Ning, Jiang Dashun, and Fang Lin stayed calm.
Gu Ning was calm because she knew there was jade, while Jiang Dashun and Fang Lin looked calm because they believed there was no jade.
