From rejecting the beautiful female CEO to becoming extremely powerful

The hum of the cutting machine stopped, but the crowd in the yard was still reeling from the shock of all five pieces of the price going up.

Feng Shao stared at the five green-glowing cut surfaces on the table, his face turning ashen.

He took a deep breath, turned around, and waved to the guy behind him.

The waiter leaned closer and whispered, "Young Master Feng, what should we do?"

"Tear up the IOU."

Feng Shao gritted his teeth and squeezed out those four words.

The waiter paused for a moment, glanced cautiously at the crowd, and lowered his voice: "This... eighty million just like that..."

"Do you want me to lose even more face here?"

The man immediately shut up and turned to get the IOU.

Qi Yufei stood at the back of the crowd, his legs as weak as noodles, and he had to lean against a pillar to barely stand.

He stared at the IOU torn in two, speechless for a long time.

Eighty million.

That's it, gone.

Feng Qianyi withdrew her gaze, turned her head to look at Lu Yunzhou, and twitched the corner of her mouth slightly: "Not bad luck."

Lu Yunzhou didn't reply. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it in his mouth, but didn't light it.

Feng Shao threw the torn-up IOU on the ground, raised his head, and looked at Lu Yunzhou's face.

"Dude, you're really lucky."

He took two steps forward and stopped in front of Lu Yunzhou.

"However, in the world of jade gambling, one round can't determine the winner or loser."

Lu Yunzhou, a cigarette dangling from his lips, raised an eyebrow: "Young Master Feng, would you like to come again?"

"What, you're afraid?"

Feng Shao's lips curled up slightly. "Just now it was five against five, this time let's keep it simple, one to decide the winner."

The crowd immediately became restless again.

"Again?"

"One stone to decide the winner? That's exciting!"

"Young Master Feng is dissatisfied..."

Lu Yunzhou took the cigarette out of his mouth, twirling it halfway between his fingers: "What are we betting on?"

"Still gambling on jade."

Feng Shao pointed to the row of expensive raw stones deep in the courtyard. "We're not comparing quantity, just value. We'll each choose a piece, cut it open, and whoever's piece is more valuable wins."

Lu Yunzhou didn't speak, his gaze sweeping over the row of raw stones.

The smallest pieces are the size of a basketball, while the largest are comparable to a water tank. Each piece of material has a price tag attached.

The lowest starting price is eight million.

Feng Shao put his hands back in his pockets, raised his chin slightly, and asked, "How about it? Dare to play?"

Lu Yunzhou turned his head, looked at him for two seconds, and suddenly smiled.

"I can play, but I only have 500,000 left in my pocket."

Feng Shao was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

"Five hundred thousand?"

He shook his head. "Brother, the cheapest material over there costs eight million. Your capital isn't enough."

Lu Yunzhou shrugged: "Well, there's nothing I can do about it, I really don't have that much money."

Feng Shao stared at him for several seconds, his smile growing wider and wider.

"Okay, then we won't bet on this round."

He turned around as he spoke, preparing to walk into the inner room.

Just then, Feng Qianyi pulled a black gold card out of her pocket and slapped it onto the table.

"Spend 100 million."

The courtyard fell silent instantly.

All eyes turned to the card.

Feng Shao stopped in his tracks, slowly turned around, his gaze lingered on Feng Qianyi's face for two seconds, and then looked at Lu Yunzhou.

"President Feng, what is this...?"

"He's mine."

Feng Qianyi said calmly, "I'll accept the loss, but if I win, it's his responsibility."

Qi Yufei stared wide-eyed, opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a sound for a long time.

Lu Yunzhou turned to look at Feng Qianyi and lowered his voice, "Are you crazy?"

Feng Qianyi ignored him and turned her gaze to Young Master Feng: "Young Master Feng, are you qualified enough this time?"

Feng Shao's Adam's apple bobbed, and a smile returned to his face.

"Enough, of course it's enough."

He paused, then continued, "But with such a large investment, there needs to be an explanation."

"you say."

"I'll put in 100 million, and you put in 100 million too."

Feng Shao pointed to the row of rough stones, "Let's each pick a piece, cut them open, and compare their value. Whoever's piece is more valuable takes home two hundred million."

Feng Qianyi didn't speak, her gaze fixed on Lu Yunzhou's face.

Lu Yunzhou tightened his grip on the cigarette, paused for two seconds, and then asked, "What if we lose?"

"You lost?"

Feng Qianyi's lips curled up slightly, "You'll work for me illegally for the rest of your life, and pay it back slowly."

Lu Yunzhou stared at her for several seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing.

"make a deal."

Young Master Feng clapped his hands: "Alright! It's settled then."

He turned around and gestured with his chin towards the waiter: "Get the machine ready, this is a big bet."

The worker immediately got to work.

The crowd pushed forward another step, some people took out their phones to record, and others discussed it in hushed tones.

"Two hundred million...isn't that going too far?"

"Young Master Feng is really desperate this time."

"That kid had incredible luck just now, but things might not be the same this time..."

Lu Yunzhou stuffed the cigarette back into his pocket and walked toward the row of expensive rough stones.

Feng Qianyi followed behind him, her voice coming from behind: "Are you confident?"

"have no idea."

Lu Yunzhou didn't even turn his head. "It depends on luck."

Feng Qianyi didn't say anything more.

Lu Yunzhou walked to the pile of raw stones, squatted down, and scanned the rough stones with his eyes.

The internal energy circulated and seeped into each stone from the palm.

The first piece—has very little spiritual energy.

The second piece—almost no reaction.

The third piece—was also severely empty.

He examined each piece one by one, and a thin layer of sweat began to bead on his forehead.

These expensive raw stones are either devoid of spiritual energy or are completely empty shells.

Lu Yunzhou stood up, took a few steps to the side, and his gaze fell on the pile of waste labeled "processing" in the corner.

The pile of materials was haphazardly arranged, with pitted and uneven stone surfaces, and the prices on the price tags were much lower than those in the main area.

He walked over, squatted down, and placed his hand on the top piece of fabric.

True Qi probes in.

no response.

Next piece.

It's still empty.

He flipped over the third piece, and as soon as his fingers touched it, he felt an extremely faint fluctuation in his palm.

Lu Yunzhou stopped moving.

He closed his eyes and focused all his inner energy into his body.

The fluctuations are becoming increasingly clear.

There's something hidden inside this stone.

He opened his eyes, pulled the piece of material out of the pile of scrap, and weighed it in his hand.

It was about the size of a basketball, with a grayish-brown stone surface that was pitted and uneven, looking no different from something picked up from a ditch.

The price tag read: Eight million.

Lu Yunzhou picked up the stone, stood up, turned around, and walked towards the table.

Feng Shao was picking out materials in the main area when he heard footsteps. He turned around and his gaze fell on the grayish rough stone in Lu Yunzhou's hand. He was stunned for a moment.

"You chose this one?"

Lu Yunzhou placed the stone on the table: "Yes, this is it."

A burst of laughter erupted from the crowd.

"Is this guy crazy? Picking through a junkyard?"

"Eight million worth of clearance items? Isn't that just throwing money away?"

"I was lucky just now, but I'm getting cocky this time..."

Feng Shao stared at the stone for several seconds, his smile growing wider and wider.

"Alright, brother, you've got guts."

He turned around, picked up a rough stone that was about half a person's height from the main area, and placed it on the table.

"I choose this one."
