Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 518 - 521 Good Luck
Still, seeing her again was astonishing.
You see, Mi Xiaoying was famously aloof, and no man could get close to her. But now...
Just as everyone was stunned, Liu Ergou gently kissed Mi Xiaoying on the forehead. He then staggered toward the pile of raw stones to begin his selection.
Throughout this competition, Liu Ergou had remained completely confident, never wavering from beginning to end.
And why would I? I'm using a cheat! Although it's not something like X-ray vision, the feedback from my True Qi is still pretty incredible.
Liu Ergou was quick in selecting the raw stones, picking his choices in just a few minutes. Even though he was done, he pretended to take his time to avoid arousing suspicion.
Based on my senses, among the stones I picked, there should be one Imperial Green and one glass-type, no surprises. As for the last one, I casually picked a piece of scrap so I wouldn't seem too ostentatious.
A moment later, the four experts Sun Gang had brought also finished selecting their stones. They all wore confident expressions, their eyes filled with scorn as they looked at Liu Ergou, but he paid them no mind.
With his raw stones in tow, Liu Ergou went over to the stone gambler master to have them cut. The four experts followed closely behind. The stone-cutting machine quickly got to work.
As soon as the machine whirred to life, a crowd of spectators gathered around, watching the process with curiosity and murmuring among themselves.
"Hey, who do you think will win this time, the kid or Sun Gang?"
"Is there even a question? Sun Gang, for sure. Just look at his lineup—four top experts!"
"Exactly! What's that kid got? He might be good at picking up girls, but that doesn't mean he's any good at stone gambling!"
As the crowd chatted, Sun Gang's first raw stone was sliced open. Inside was a piece of ice-type jadeite of excellent color. When this piece of jadeite was revealed, a wave of exclamations went through the crowd.
"Damn, ice-type jadeite! You're kidding! And it looks to be of very high quality!"
"Not just high quality, it's pretty big, too! Sun Gang's chances of winning look huge right now!"
"Totally. I bet when Liu Ergou's stones are opened, they'll just be three worthless rocks!"
Hearing the crowd's chatter, Sun Gang couldn't help but grin smugly.
"Liu Ergou, I'll give you one last chance to admit defeat," he sneered. "If you surrender now, just let me have my fun with Mi Xiaoying for a month, and I'll let the rest slide!"
Seeing Sun Gang's arrogant display, Liu Ergou scoffed. "Sun Gang, have you lost your mind? My stones haven't even been cut yet, and you're already talking so big. Aren't you afraid of eating your words?"
Hearing this, Sun Gang shot back with a cold laugh. "Fine! Some people don't shed a tear until they see the coffin. Let's cut your stones and then we'll see!"
Just as he finished speaking, the raw stone Liu Ergou had selected was cut open. When the crowd saw what was inside, they immediately burst into laughter.
"HAHAHA, a bean-type?"
"Tsk, a huge loss! What a waste, a piece of bean-type jadeite!"
"Wow, that's absolute garbage!"
Hearing the crowd, Sun Gang hurriedly looked over at Liu Ergou's stone. Sure enough, it had revealed a piece of bean-type jadeite, and of the poorest quality at that. He immediately erupted in laughter.
"Hahaha, Liu Ergou, is this what you were so confident about? You're killing me!" As he spoke, Sun Gang was already doubled over, laughing so hard he could barely breathe.
Seeing this, Mi Xiaoying grew anxious. "Er Gou, this... we're going to lose!"
Hearing her words, Liu Ergou reached out and gently squeezed her hand. "What's there to be afraid of? We picked three stones. It's the best of three, and we've only lost one round. It's no big deal."
Watching Liu Ergou's feigned composure, Sun Gang's grin only widened.
He's just putting on a brave face. He's a complete amateur. The only reason he even made it to the final round against me was pure luck. Without that luck, he would've been fortunate to even make it past the second round.
Thinking this, Sun Gang waved his hand at the stone gambler master. "Keep cutting! I can't wait to claim my victory. Hurry up, don't waste my time!"
The stone gambler master didn't dawdle and immediately began cutting Sun Gang's second raw stone. Soon, it was cut open, revealing another piece of ice-type jadeite.
Seeing the second piece of ice-type jadeite, Sun Gang's mouth twisted into a triumphant smirk. He could already taste victory, and his gaze toward Liu Ergou grew even more contemptuous. Yet, Liu Ergou acted as if he hadn't noticed, simply standing there and minding his own business.
After a moment, Liu Ergou's second stone was also cut open.
When the onlookers saw the result, they couldn't help but gasp collectively.
"Holy crap! No way! Is Liu Ergou about to pull off a miraculous comeback?"
"What comeback? Holy hell! A glass-type jadeite! And such a high-quality piece, are you kidding me?!"
"What do you mean, glass-type? Get out of here, I haven't seen one of those in years!"
At that last comment, everyone in the crowd surged toward Liu Ergou's stone, starting to examine the piece of glass-type jadeite closely. As they stared, someone suddenly remarked, "Tsk, this just goes to show how great Ting Tian Pavilion is. To think their raw stones can produce glass-type jadeite!"
"Now that's what you call a reputable business! Unlike some merchants where you buy a ton of raw stone and get a ton and a half of waste rock!"
"With them, you'd be lucky to get two bean-types!"
As these words were spoken, everyone's gaze unanimously shifted toward Sun Gang. Indeed, Sun Gang also owned a stone gambling business in the city, but it had a terrible reputation.
Hearing the crowd's discussion, Sun Gang was caught completely off guard; he hadn't expected the criticism to be turned on him. It was utterly absurd. However, since the competition was still ongoing, he suppressed his anger and simply stared coldly at Liu Ergou.
"Motherfucker, you really are lucky!" he snarled. "To think you'd actually cut a piece of glass-type jadeite!"
Liu Ergou simply chuckled. "Can't help it. My luck has always been good, and it's only getting better. Want to keep watching?"
His provocative words made Sun Gang so angry he looked ready to rush forward and beat him up.
