Chapter 163: There Are Always Unruly People Trying to Harm Me
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Mo Xue arrived, she happened to hear what Gu Lian said to Mo Yu. Her expression instantly turned ugly.
She had always cared about such competitions. If Bai Feng’s auction just now had barely satisfied her vanity, then Gu Lian’s casual words had increased Mo Xue’s jealousy.
She looked at Mo Yu indignantly, wondering why such a stupid village girl from the countryside was so lucky to obtain Gu Lian’s love.
The moment Mo Yu heard that Gu Lian had appointed her to choose, her heart turned cold. She almost immediately thought of what was written in the original novel, the shock she received after the stone chosen by the original owner was opened.
Not to mention the quality, it was not even jade.
Mo Yu waved her hand and refused. “Don’t joke around, Hubby. I can’t do it. You should do it.”
Gu Lian did not give her a chance to refuse at all. He still looked at Mo Yu with a smile and his tone was filled with encouragement. “It’s okay, Xiao Yu. I believe you. Besides, it’s just for fun. It’s not embarrassing if you really don’t get anything. After all, this is your first time playing.”
Mo Yu knew that Gu Lian would not let her off easily, so she could only close her eyes and nod slightly.
Then, she swapped their bodies.
In any case, as an important supporting character in the novel, Gu Lian had absolute luck and strength. Although she did not know if it was because of a buff on his body or a mark on his soul, it was much better than her “trashy luck”.
She might as well let Gu Lian choose for her and let him dig his own hole.
Gu Lian, who was waiting to watch the show, was caught off guard and replaced. Only then did he remember that the exchange rights of the two people were still with Mo Yu.
Gu Lian was so angry that he almost laughed. He communicated with Mo Yu in his heart, “Change back. Hurry up.”
“No, Hubby, I’ve never played with this kind of thing. Try it first. Besides, you’re using my body now. It’s not embarrassing if you can’t open a good one. When we change back, you can open it yourself. If the good material is opened, won’t you be the one who gets a good reputation?” Mo Yu and Gu Lian wheedled, but they were determined not to swap the two of them back.
After Gu Lian sighed, he imitated Mo Yu’s usual bearing and walked toward the stones. He began to sized up and choose one by one.
Gu Lian was actually very confident in finding good materials. Ever since he discovered Gu Cheng’s plan, he had been paying close attention to the movements.
This time, Gu Cheng was afraid that Gu Lian would not come, so he specially chose some good materials and mixed them in the middle. He planned to resell them after this.
Now, Gu Cheng was nervously looking at Mo Yu, who was wandering back and forth, afraid that she would pick up the good stuff.
Gu Lian only found it funny, but he still sized up them one by one.
After all, he had promised Mo Yu that no matter what he chose, he would give it to Mo Yu. If he gave her a good material, wouldn’t he suffer a loss?
At this moment, there were already a few people in the surrounding crowd who could not hold it in anymore and began to urge her. Mo Xue thought of something and said with a smile, “Sister, do you not know how to pick? Do you need me to teach you?”
As she spoke, Mo Xue also walked up. After pretending to look at it a few times, she casually pointed at a stone. “I think this piece is not bad.”
Gu Lian rolled his eyes at her. He hated such arrogant people the most.
He stopped hiding and walked straight to a stone worth five million yuan. He patted it gently. “This one suits me. The price is also suitable, I’ll help my husband save some money.”
Gu Cheng heaved a sigh of relief. The stones in the five million yuan area were not expensive. The good things he had carefully selected were actually mixed in with ten million yuan.
No matter how good five million yuan was, it was not enough to cause a storm. Moreover, what ‘Mo Yu’ said could be blown up. For example, contact the media and edit it into Mo Yu being disdainful of Gu Lian.
The staff moved very quickly and followed the procedures. In the end, they chose a location and began to open the stone.
As the machine fell bit by bit, Mo Yu’s heart began to beat faster.
Gambling was indeed very addictive. This adrenaline rush was very exciting..
