Chapter 32 Don’t You Think You Get Very Lucky?
“Some people buy a stone and become rich overnight. But some people spend a lot of money in buying a stone, then when it’s cut open, it’s only white inside. And then all of their properties are gone. It’s like they can be pushed into heaven or hell in an instant. But not everyone can experience such a thrill. ”
Lan Xiao was in a daze, listening to the system babbling on some information about gambling on stones.
But it was a pity that she didn’t understand anything at all. She was so confused.
The rebellious girl saw the stunned expression on Lan Xiao’s face. She thought that Lan Xiao got frightened.
A hint of mockery flashed across her eyes. She then put on an anxious look and said in a doleful voice, “Lan Xiao, what should we do? Xingbo lost so much money on stone gambling, so those people kidnapped him. They planned to chop his fingers to pay off his debt.”
Lan Xiao was so shocked that she felt like her scalp was tingling. She asked, “How much did he borrow to bet on the stone?”
The rebellious girl raised her hand and showed her five fingers in front of Lan Xiao’s face.
“Five... Five hundred thousand?”
The rebellious girl shook her head.
“Five... Five million?”
The rebellious girl shook her head again.
“Five... Fifty million?” Lan Xiao’s tongue trembled with surprise.
The rebellious girl stared at her with watery eyes, bit her lips, and nodded.
Lan Xiao was utterly stunned. Fifty million? Was it a joke?
What kind of stone did that idiot buy using RMB fifty million? Was it gold? Lan Xingbo didn’t have brain problems at all. He definitely didn’t have a brain.
Lan Xiao was so angry that her heart ached. Although the Lan family was the No. 1 jeweler in Ling City, they didn’t have much working capital. Besides, she remembered clearly that the jewelry industry was generally stagnant this year, and the sales fell year after year.
Most of the Lan family’s jewelry stores in Ling City barely maintained small profits.
Paying so much money to the loan shark would only add insult to injury in their company’s current situation.
She couldn’t let her father know about it. Absolutely not!
After all, Lan Xiao believed that even if Lan Xingbo would be rescued, Lan Shanhua would definitely break his legs.
Lan Xiao was so anxious that beads of sweat streamed down her forehead for a while.
Her sweaty hands balled into fists, uneasiness sweeping over her.
The system rolled its eyes, sighed, and thought, ‘This woman is really stupid. She has such a great ability, but she never uses it. Is she just going to waste it?’
“Miss Lan, let me remind you that you have the magical ability now,” the system said.
Lan Xiao was taken aback for a moment.
“What?” The system fell silent for a few seconds.
What should it do? Could it change the host?
Of course, the answer was no. The system did not expect that after waiting for hundreds of years, the host it could get was a stupid woman.
All of a sudden, an idea came into Lan Xiao’s mind. She slapped her forehead hard.
“Wait a minute. Handsome system, do you mean that with my magical ability, I can clearly detect the quality of the jadeite in the stone?”
The system shrugged proudly and said, “Let me reiterate. Currently, there is no device that can detect the internal structure of the raw jade. But you, you now have the ability to detect the inner structure of the raw jade. So, don’t you think you get very lucky? ”
For a few seconds, Lan Xiao was stunned. Then she suddenly laughed excitedly.
“Great!”
The rebellious girl was rendered speechless.
Lan Xiao’s younger brother was kidnapped, and his fingers might be cut off. But here she was, so happy and excited. She even exclaimed that it was great?
How shallow was her relationship with Lan Xingbo? Or did the rebellious girl come to the wrong person?
