Chapter 316 - The King’s Green
Gu Ning visited many raw materials shops and finally found one with top-level jade inside. Other than that, she also got two raw materials which contained high-level jade. Although there were many pieces of top-level jade in her telepathic eyes space, she couldn’t take them out in front of Leng Shaoting, so she could only search for some at the street of stone gambling.
Gu Ning later requested a worker in the shop to cut out the raw material with the top-level jade inside. The raw material wasn’t big, it was the size of a man’s fist, but its outer layer was thin, and it only needed rubbing.
Whenever there was a worker who was cutting out a raw material, there was a group of onlookers surrounded him.
“It’s green inside!”
More people gathered around the worker after he announced that there was green in the raw material.
Someone bid the minute that the green showed, but was stopped by Gu Ning. “Sorry, I have no intention to sell this jade. It’s a New Year gift for the older generation.”
Since the owner didn’t want to sell it, others couldn’t force her to do so. However, a woman suddenly said acidly, “Gee, a New Year gift for the older generation? It isn’t certain that there is jade inside yet! Don’t jump to conclusions!” The woman was in her early twenties and dressed in designer brands, but did not look stylish at all.
Gu Ning retorted, “It’s none of your business!”
“So what? I’ve already said it,” the woman said with disdain. However, the woman was immediately terrified when Leng Shaoting gave her a cold, sharp glance. She shut her mouth without delay and didn’t dare to utter another word. Gu Ning wasn’t bored enough to argue with her, so she ignored the woman. The woman felt humiliated and played cute in front of a middle-aged man beside her, “Honey!”
Honey? Gu Ning was surprised, and realized their relationship at once. The middle-aged man must be the woman’s sugar daddy. Everyone looked to the woman with disdain now, because she was a mistress at such a young age.
“Be quiet, or you can just leave right now!” the man snapped in anger. He actually didn’t care about other people’s opinions, but was displeased that the woman interrupted the process of cutting the raw material. The woman was struck speechless from fear.
With its outer layer being removed little by little, the jade appeared in full scale. It was dark green and looked so beautiful!
“Jesus! It’s the King’s Green!” the worker raised his voice in excitement. Everyone around him also drew a long breath in, and couldn’t believe their eyes. The King’s Green was the king of jade! However, Gu Ning got a piece of it so easily. Everyone was jealous of her now, and they all wished that they could have the King’s Green.
Gu Ning knew that there was top-level jade in it, but didn’t know that it was the King’s Green, so she was also surprised to see it. Nevertheless, it was a perfect gift for Master Leng.
Many people came to the shop after they heard the news, but they were all disappointed that Gu Ning wouldn’t sell it.
Gu Ning paid the fee for cutting the raw material and quickly left with Leng Shaoting. Everyone could only watch them disappearing from sight. The King’s Green was worth at least a hundred million yuan! However, the news also attracted some bad people’s attention. With the priceless jade in her hands, Gu Ning was in a dangerous situation.
The minute that they left the shop, they felt that some people were stalking them. However, they ignored them, walking straight to the parking lot.
There were many people on the street, so the bad men didn’t have chance to attack Gu Ning. They planned to grab the jade from Gu Ning when they were in the parking lot.
However, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting walked to a Hummer, which shocked the bad guys. The car was extremely expensive, and its owner must be either super-rich or powerful, so those bad guys hesitated. Meanwhile, they were reluctant to miss the King’s Green which was worth at least a hundred million yuan. Therefore, they made up their mind to take the risk. A hundred million yuan wasn’t much to Gu Ning, but it was a fortune to ordinary people.
There were few people in the parking lot, so the bad men directly ran at Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning when they were about to get in the car. However, before they could attack them, Leng Shaoting punched them first. Within several movements, the three men were kicked away. To their astonishment, they failed before they even began to attack Gu Ning. The three men were moaning in great pain on the ground, and they now realized that they had made a terrible mistake. They were scared by Leng Shaoting and eager to escape away. Unfortunately, they could barely stand up.
Leng Shaoting didn’t bother to waste time on them, so he got in the car and drove away without hesitation. Both Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning weren’t affected by what just had happened.
“We need to find a good box to pack it up before sending to y-grandpa,” Gu Ning said. She almost said “your grandpa” again, but changed it at once.
“I think that it’s too expensive. Can’t we prepare another gift?” Although Leng Shaoting understood that Gu Ning didn’t lack jade at all, the top-level jade was too rare. He wanted her to think about it twice.
“Don’t worry, this isn’t the first time that I’ve cut out the King’s Green,” Gu Ning said. Since she promised that she would send his grandpa top-level jade, she would fulfill her promise. No matter how expensive it was, she was willing to send it to his grandpa.
“But…” Leng Shaoting still hesitated. The King’s Green was too expensive after all. A hundred million yuan was nothing to him either, but it was too much for a gift.
“Well, if we get married one day, we’ll share our properties and wealth. What is mine is yours,” Gu Ning said. She had no intention to take Leng Shaoting’s properties as her own, but she wanted to comfort him.
