Chapter 636 - Standing Up For The Weak



Chapter 636: Standing Up For The Weak

It seemed like a fair bet, but in reality, Ling Pinyuan got a huge advantage.

After all, a person like Zhong Nuannuan was obviously a layman. Even if Ling Pinyuan lost, the raw stones that Zhong Nuannuan chose would probably be worthless. Soaring Clouds Pavilion would not suffer too much of a loss then.

However, if Zhong Nuannuan purchased the raw stones herself, the raw stones in the internal exhibition hall would be sold for fifty thousand per catty. Those in the central exhibition hall would be sold for thirty thousand per catty. Meanwhile, the raw stones in the external exhibition hall would be sold for ten thousand per catty. This way, if she bought 15 raw stones, the Ling family would earn at least a few million.

For such a bet, even if it was embarrassing to reject, one would usually reject it.

That was because they would definitely lose!

However, Zhong Nuannuan agreed readily.

“Sure, I’ll accept that bet.”

The old man at the side could not stand it anymore. He nudged Old Master Chi with his elbow and whispered, “Heh, you didn’t even try to persuade your granddaughter. Are you going to let her mess around like this?”

Old Master Chi glanced at the old man who nudged him, his face full of arrogance.

“Hey, old man, what are you saying? Who are you to say that my granddaughter is messing around? In my opinion, Miss Ling is the one who’s going to lose!”

The old man was rendered speechless by Old Master Chi. He felt that he meddled unnecessarily.

Zhong Nuannuan was so touched that she nearly cried when she heard the old master’s unhesitating support for her.

This was because it reminded her that in her previous life before Chi Yang came to rescue her, the old master told Chi Yang that if he could not save her, he might as well not go back.

The old master had always been treating her so well!

He had always given her so much trust!

Zhong Nuannuan blinked back her tears and said to Ling Pinyuan, “However, I will have to choose the raw stones first. What if I win and you only give me the smallest raw stone?”

That sounded like something only a layman would say.

She was here to gamble on jade, not to buy pork. How could anyone measure it by size?

Ling Pinyuan almost burst out laughing because of Zhong Nuannuan’s provocation. She managed to hold back her laughter with great difficulty and nodded gravely. “Sure. But I’ve said it just now. You have to choose on your own. Even if your grandfather is an expert, he can’t give you any hints from now on.”

“Sure.”

“Okay, go ahead then,” Ling Pinyuan said generously.

“No hurry.”

“Why? Are you going back on your word?” Ling Pinyuan was displeased.

“I definitely won’t go back on my word, but I’m afraid that you’ll go back on your word, Miss Ling. So, I think we should find a witness and sign a contract. Otherwise, if Miss Ling decides to go back on her word, who am I going to reason with?”

“Okay, I’ll write a contract with you. However, there’s no suitable witness here. I, Ling Pinyuan, always keep my word. With so many people and cameras around, I can’t go back on my word.”

“I don’t even know you. Who am I supposed to reason with if it turns out to be possible? This is your store.”

“Then, what exactly do you want? If you don’t dare to bet, just say it. Where am I supposed to find a witness for you?”

“If you want to bet, then let me be the witness!”

The old man who had spoken to the old man earlier could not help but worry. He stepped up from the crowd.

After he walked out of the crowd, another four young men crawled out from behind him.

The four young men looked normal and wore normal clothes. However, to anyone who looked closely, they could see that the men were tall and strong. Their solemn faces were adorned with bright eyes. They were obviously professional bodyguards.
