Chimu Jiu opened her mouth, wanting to coax him, but before she could say anything, people had already arrived below the exhibition stage. The gambling stone competition was about to begin.
"Dear guests, the gambling stone event is about to start. You may choose any three pieces of jade from the exhibition hall, each with its corresponding price. If multiple guests are interested in the same piece of jade, the highest bidder wins." The host's voice echoed clearly and powerfully throughout the exhibition hall.
The selection time for the stones is one hour. After one hour, we will cut open the jade pieces for each guest. Three pieces of jade mean three rounds of gambling.
Everyone's gaze focused on the jade displayed on the stage, which radiated a mysterious glow under the lights. The guest with the highest quality jade would receive a refund of their purchase amount, while all bets placed by other guests would belong to the winner of this round.
With a starting bet reaching ten thousand, this was undoubtedly an exhilarating gamble. And this was just the preliminary round.
"Guests, let the games begin! Please remember to keep things friendly during this preliminary round." As soon as the host finished speaking, all the spotlight suddenly focused on the jade displayed on the stage.
In an instant, the exhibition hall was illuminated as brightly as day, every piece of jade revealed in exquisite detail. At that moment, Chimu Jiu noticed that a transparent screen in front of her projected a holographic image of dozens of jade pieces from the exhibition hall.
Those jades seemed to float in mid-air, exuding an enchanting charm that made one feel as if they were in a fantastical world of jade.
What? This is so high-tech?
Chimu Jiu's eyes widened in surprise; it was her first time witnessing such a scene. Nowadays, participating in a gambling event without understanding some high-tech features was simply not acceptable.
She muttered to herself softly.
Du Heng glanced at her expression and couldn't help but chuckle. "Madam, if you don't choose soon, you'll only be left with what's leftover."
Chimu Jiu immediately replied, "Understood."
When Chi Mu Jiu first entered, she had already carefully observed all the jade stones.
The one in the middle, priced at ten thousand, she said slowly while staring at the screen. After a pause, she continued, and the one at the edge, priced at a hundred thousand.
Du Heng Yan casually locked onto these three pieces of jade in the holographic display. When he heard the price of the last jade stone, his eyes narrowed slightly, but there was no hesitation in his demeanor.
In less than two minutes, they had selected three pieces of jade. The stones that were not chosen immediately displayed as sold out on other guests' holograms. If anyone wanted to bid on the same piece of jade, they would have to double the price. In this gambling stone venue, who would dare to compete with Du Heng Yan for anything?
"Madam, do you think I can't afford a jade stone priced at ten thousand?" Du Heng Yan raised an eyebrow slightly.
Chi Mu Jiu smiled gently, her eyes filled with cunning. "Can I let you lose?"
"Brother Du, the show is about to begin. Didn't you say you would accompany me in this act?" Her voice was soft and melodious, like a delightful tune.
"Right now, your role is that of a lovesick man mesmerized by a beauty, willing to comply with whatever I do."
As she spoke, Chi Mu Jiu's hands naturally rested on his shoulders, her slender fingers seemingly carrying a hint of electricity that made Du Heng Yan's body shiver slightly. The beauty leaned closer to his broad frame, her soft touch and faint fragrance instantly enveloping him.
This provocative gesture made Du Heng Yan's heart race; his gaze instantly turned fiery. He wrapped his arms around her delicate waist and murmured, "Hmm, the little raccoon has turned into a little fox."
Du Hang's lips curled into a tender smile. In that moment, it seemed as if he had truly been enchanted by the little fox, Chi Mu Jiu, becoming deeply ensnared in the web of emotions she had woven, unable to escape.
