Chapter 817: Take Your Pick

"She went in?"

Upstairs, Meng Feifei smiled and said, "Wasn’t she not going to gamble? Hmph... what’s the point of pretending?"

"Not gambling?" The man chuckled, "Old Liu can talk the dead back to life, do you think a little girl like her doesn’t have that kind of attraction?"

Just like when he first came here, his curiosity was overwhelming.

Moreover, there’s no one in this world who doesn’t want to get rich overnight.

That’s why the gambling stone business is doing so well.

"I don’t care, I just don’t want her to have it easy." Meng Feifei pouted and said.

"Alright, Feifei, it’s just your word." The man laughed, "Who saved my life? It was you."

"That was just an accident." Meng Feifei sighed, "Can’t you stop bringing it up all the time?"

"Okay, I’ll keep it in my heart." Mao Rui patted his chest and said.

Meng Feifei giggled joyfully.

Mao Rui’s family is in the antique business, which was once very large but suffered during the Cultural Revolution; it’s only recovered in recent years.

And the life-saving story is indeed true.

When he was young, Mao Rui was pushed into the river by a family member and nearly drowned. It was Meng Feifei who found a rope to pull him up. After almost losing his life, Mao Rui’s personality changed dramatically.

But he’s only like this with Meng Feifei.

"Found anything you like?" Yang Yunhai asked Gu Lingling.

Gu Lingling shook her head.

Gambling on stones isn’t just about liking or disliking; she doesn’t want to waste the hard-earned money of Brother Yang’s family.

"Don’t worry, I can afford you." Yang Yunhai whispered in her ear.

Old Liu turned around and saw the two being all lovey-dovey. But fortunately, he was already so full today, a bit more show of affection wouldn’t make a difference.

"Come on, girl." Old Liu said to Gu Lingling, "Have you found anything you fancy?"

"You go about your business, I’m just here for the fun." Gu Lingling replied with a smile.

Just here for the fun?

That’s not good!

He worked so hard to get her into the store, not just for her to watch.

"Pick something, maybe you’ll get lucky." Old Liu urged her, "I’ll tell you, these stones are all of good quality. Pick one, make a pair of rings for you and your boyfriend, wouldn’t that be meaningful?"

"Think about it, made from the same stone, it’s much more meaningful than buying from a store where who knows what stone it’s made from." Seeing that Gu Lingling wasn’t moved, Old Liu continued to persuade her.

Anyway, his goal today was just to get her to buy one of his stones.

Whether it’s truly impressive depends on the little girl’s luck.

Hopefully, it won’t be impressive, or else someone will suffer.

Old Liu shook his head. Mao Rui, usually looking ruthless, is wrapped around the finger of a little girl. Who knows what’s so good about that ill-tempered girl?

This girl here is much more likable.

But it’s none of his business, as long as he gets Gu Lingling to gamble on stones in the store, his task is completed, and his favor is paid back.

What he didn’t expect was, even after all he’s said, the little girl didn’t react at all.

"Well... maybe give it a try." But Yang Yunhai next to her seemed interested.

Indeed, he had thought about buying a pair of rings before, but there’s nothing as meaningful as this.

Same source, same origin.

"Go ahead and pick, I’ll buy what you like." Yang Yunhai encouraged her.

Gu Lingling, "..."

Is this still her Brother Yang?

How come he’s so easily persuaded?

The black bird on the branch rolled its eyes ungracefully, "Of course, it’s yours, but with Black Bird King here, there’s no way your man can be swayed."

After all, otherwise, he’d be laughed at to death.
