Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 516 - 519: There is a Conspiracy

As she spoke, Mi Xiaoying began to demonstrate the skills she had learned.

This left He Mingxue completely dumbfounded. She could never have imagined that the always aloof and distant Mi Xiaoying could act like this. It was truly astonishing.

Mi Xiaoying, seeing He Mingxue still in a daze, couldn't help but call out, "What are you daydreaming about, Mingxue? Don't just stand there like a fool, hurry over!"

Upon hearing Mi Xiaoying's call, He Mingxue was at a loss and turned to Liu Ergou with a helpless look. But Liu Ergou didn't say anything, still sporting a smile. Seeing this, He Mingxue took a deep breath to calm herself, then quickly joined Liu Ergou's side.

She began to mimic Mi Xiaoying.

Seeing this, the nearby Mi Xiaoying couldn't help but shake her head. Then, she actually began to tease her.

"Tsk. Mingxue, you're so clumsy. How can you be even clumsier than me?"

He Mingxue immediately retorted, "How am I clumsy? Really! You're too much, Xiao Ying."

Hearing He Mingxue's words, Mi Xiaoying wasn't angry but continued to laugh. "Since you're clumsy, you need to learn with an open mind! Just wait. When there's a chance, I'll have Er Gou's other girlfriends teach you properly, and then you'll get it!"

Mi Xiaoying's words caused He Mingxue to look up in shock.

"Ah? Other girlfriends?" she asked. "I thought it was just the two of us for Er Gou. Surely, there couldn't be others besides us?"

As she said this, He Mingxue glanced at Liu Ergou with a skeptical look.

"I admit Er Gou is impressive, but can he really handle that many people?"

Hearing He Mingxue's words, Mi Xiaoying couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha, whether he can handle it or not, shouldn't you be clear about that by now? After all this time, you can't possibly be unaware, right?"

At Mi Xiaoying's words, He Mingxue's face instantly flushed red.

Oh, she knew all too well. It couldn't have been clearer.

And so, within a few minutes, Mi Xiaoying also got busy. Time flew by, and the three of them didn't go to sleep until they were exhausted at midnight.

「The next morning.」

Liu Ergou, as usual, woke up early and began to practice the Body Cultivation Technique. After a while, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. His practice of the Body Cultivation Technique today was the same as before; he was still stuck at the peak of the fourth level. He wondered how much longer it would take to advance to the fifth level.

He suddenly felt that advancing to the fifth level of the Body Cultivation Technique might be an unattainable dream in this lifetime.

To be fair, however, even just the peak of the fourth level of the Body Cultivation Technique had brought him endless benefits. Not only was he strong and vigorous, but he also had immense strength and boundless energy. Just these three qualities would be enough for a lifetime, not to mention the other miraculous abilities that came with it.

Time slowly passed, and before they knew it, it was 8:00 AM.

He Mingxue and Mi Xiaoying also slowly woke up. When they awoke and saw it was already 8:00 AM, they immediately panicked. The stone-gambling event was set to start at 9:00 AM. Without wasting words, the two quickly freshened up and then dragged Liu Ergou downstairs, rushing straight for Ting Tian Pavilion.

Finally, at 8:30 AM, the three of them arrived at the entrance of Ting Tian Pavilion.

As soon as they reached the entrance, Liu Ergou's eyes widened.

"No way, why are there so many people here today?"

Hearing this, Mi Xiaoying followed his gaze and saw a large, dense crowd inside Ting Tian Pavilion. At a rough estimate, there were probably four or five hundred people.

Seeing so many people, Mi Xiaoying wasn't flustered. She simply smiled and said, "Er Gou, don't let the crowd fool you. In reality, very few will advance to the second round! Although there's no entry requirement for the competition, is stone gambling that simple? You've experienced it, so you know best! Out of ten stones in front of you, it's very likely nine are empty, and the remaining one could still be worthless!"

Liu Ergou wholeheartedly agreed. Although he had a cheat, he knew clearly from when he was picking stones himself. It felt like if he picked ten stones, eleven of them could be empty. The odds were truly abysmal.

Without saying anything more, the three of them entered Ting Tian Pavilion.

Soon, Mi Xiaoying stood on stage. Following some pleasantries, the stone-gambling competition began. As soon as the competition started, staff immediately brought out raw stones for everyone to select.

The people choosing the stones were decisive, barely glancing at them before making their selections. Then, they stood aside confidently to wait.

Liu Ergou was among them. He imitated the others, casually picking a stone and then waiting patiently. Although Liu Ergou seemed to pick randomly, the moment he picked up the raw stone, his True Qi immediately gave him feedback.

After selecting his stone, he couldn't help but look over at Sun Gang. Sun Gang was accompanied by four men who looked like experts. At that moment, these four experts were intently selecting stones with magnifying glasses. In just a few minutes, they too made their selections.

Seeing Sun Gang and his group finish, Liu Ergou withdrew his gaze.

About another fifteen minutes passed before everyone present had selected their raw stones.

Following that, the stone gambler masters began cutting the stones for the participants. With over a hundred stone gambler masters cutting stones simultaneously, the process was incredibly fast. Everything was finished in less than half an hour.

Yet, out of the four or five hundred participants, only a dozen or so advanced to the second round. Liu Ergou counted carefully and saw that only twelve people had advanced. Of course, this included both Sun Gang and himself.

Seeing this, Liu Ergou couldn't help but think of what Mi Xiaoying had said to him earlier.

Indeed, stone gambling really isn't that simple.

Just as Liu Ergou thought the second round was about to begin, the eliminated participants suddenly became restless. They banded together and began shouting loudly, "This is fixed!"

"This competition must be rigged! With so many people, why did only a few advance?"

As the situation grew increasingly chaotic, Mi Xiaoying spoke from the stage. "Everyone, I won't say more than I have to! You should understand what stone gambling entails, right? Do I even need to explain the odds? So don't come here looking for trouble! If you insist on making a scene, then don't blame me for turning hostile!"

After saying this, Mi Xiaoying's expression instantly darkened. A chilling aura began to emanate from her, gradually spreading through the crowd.
