Chapter 234: Chapter 235 Accidental Encounter_1

Thank you to "Refusing All Romances for You" for your support; thank you, brothers, for your support!

This page mainly discusses the types and characteristics of jadeite and includes many pictures as well.

Li Changlin looked at it seriously for a few minutes and gained a certain understanding of the types of jadeite.

"I say, Li Changlin, you wouldn’t be cramming at the last minute, would you?" Seeing Li Changlin pull out his phone to search for information about jadeite, Lin Ruonan came over to take a look and couldn’t help but burst into laughter immediately.

"You shouldn’t underestimate the effectiveness of last-minute cramming," Li Changlin said with a casual smile. After looking for a while longer, he raised his head and said, "Speaking of which, during my school days, especially before exams, I almost always crammed last minute, and my grades were pretty good, too."

"Yeah right, as if I’d believe that," Lin Ruonan shrugged, not buying Li Changlin’s nonsense at all.

In fact, this was just a small joke Li Changlin made casually, since he previously knew nothing about types of jadeite, so of course, he needed to familiarize himself with some related information.

After all, Li Changlin was preparing to pick out a good piece of jadeite, to make up for Lin Ruonan’s damaged jade pendant.

"Alright, I’ve roughly understood some things; how about we try our luck now!" Actually, buying raw stone was indeed a matter of luck.

The situation was hardly different from gambling.

One cut to heaven, one cut to earth, that’s how thrilling stone gambling can be.

Seeing Li Changlin’s insistence, Lin Ruonan didn’t voice any opposition.

After all, the raw stones in Jincheng were not too expensive; Lin Ruonan had been here several times with her girlfriends during her school days.

The two squeezed through the crowd and made their way to the area where the raw stones were displayed.

"Hey, those two youngsters wouldn’t be thinking of buying raw stones as well, would they?"

"Heh, look at their plain clothes; they’re probably not rich folks. I guess they’re just here to look around."

"Not necessarily, the raw stones over there aren’t too expensive. A few thousand yuan could buy one, so I guess they might be here to try their luck."

"This brother speaks the truth. I’ve seen many like them before, with hardly any money on them, yet they daydream about striking it rich overnight, all pipe dreamers," another chimed in.

Watching Li Changlin and Lin Ruonan observing the raw stones on the ground quietly, the onlooking crowd burst into laughter.

These were people who either couldn’t afford to buy or didn’t dare to take the risk, lacking the guts to make a bold move, hence they could only stand by as unrefined spectators, resorting to mocking others to elevate their so-called wisdom—nothing more than a bunch of pitiful and pathetic small-timers.

As for these comments, both Li Changlin and Lin Ruonan heard them, but neither of them got angry.

To be honest, if it had been the Li Changlin of earlier days, he might not have been able to resist confronting those people.

But now, he had grown a bit more prudent.

After all, if one encounters a barking dog while walking, one doesn’t rush over to beat the dog, does one?

Those people were just a bunch of bigoted snobs, not worth getting upset over.

While examining the raw stones on the ground, Li Changlin quietly used a bottle of Clairvoyance Potion.

Suddenly, he felt his eyes start to tingle.

Then, he felt waves of pain.

However, the pain was not unbearable, so Li Changlin bit his lips tightly and did not make a sound.

"Changlin, I feel this rough stone is quite good. How about we buy this one?" Suddenly, Lin Ruonan, who was walking ahead, stopped and pointed at a stone that also seemed to have a nice appearance.

Li Changlin hurriedly looked over and immediately realized that there was no jade in this rough stone.

"This rough stone just looks good on the outside, let’s forget about it," Li Changlin shook his head. As he had already used the Clairvoyance Potion, he could naturally see the inside of the rough stone clearly.

What surprised him slightly was that although there was nothing inside this particular rough stone, there was jade in a smaller stone next to it.

Therefore, Li Changlin immediately shifted his gaze and examined it carefully.

"Hmm, it seems like it’s ’Fu Shou Lu’!" Li Changlin’s mind stirred, and he remembered the characteristics of this type of jade clearly.

’Fu Shou Lu’ refers to a piece of jade that has green, red, purple or white—three colors on the same stone.

This kind of jade symbolizes auspiciousness and Ruyi, representing the three joys of "Fu Shou Lu," hence the name ’Fu Shou Lu’ jade.

"Although ranked fifth, this type of jade is quite good," Li Changlin’s thoughts turned, and he immediately decided to buy the rough stone.

However, to his mild surprise, a pair of hands suddenly reached over at that moment, directly picking up that rough stone.

"I’ll take this rough stone," a crisp voice rang out, and Li Changlin couldn’t help but turn his head to look.

The owner of the hands was actually a very beautiful woman, who seemed to be only twenty-one or twenty-two years old, likely a recent college graduate.

What surprised Li Changlin even more was that standing beside this woman was another girl whom he knew.

"Ah Ping, you’re here too!" Before Li Changlin had a chance to greet her, Lin Ruonan was already chatting with the girl.

The girl whom Li Changlin knew was Zhong Jianping, the girlfriend of Ye Zhiwen, who had been fired just two days ago by Chen Zhengxin, the boss of Guangming Opera House.

"Sister Ruonan," Zhong Jianping looked up and realized that the person greeting her was Ye Zhiwen’s classmate and colleague. Then, she naturally saw Li Changlin, "Brother Changlin."

"Ah Ping," Li Changlin nodded but couldn’t help stealing another glance at the girl standing next to Zhong Jianping.

Unexpectedly, this girl also looked up at him.

Immediately, Li Changlin felt as if his true self was caught, and he quickly smiled sheepishly.

"So, he is Li Changlin, he’s really handsome!" The girl who faced Li Changlin was slightly starstruck, and it was only after Zhong Jianping called her twice that she snapped out of it," Hello, I’m Ah Ping’s colleague, my name is Bai Ziyu."

"Hello, I’m Lin Ruonan."

"Hello, I’m Li Changlin."

Li Changlin and Lin Ruonan both nodded quickly, but to their surprise, Zhong Jianping had apparently found a job so quickly.

"Brother Changlin, why do I feel like you’ve become more handsome?" After exchanging introductions, Zhong Jianping asked, laughing.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, I’m not sure how to answer that question. I’ve always been this handsome!" Li Changlin chuckled awkwardly, although inside he was quite pleased.

For the moment, he was no longer concerned about the rough stone that Bai Ziyu had taken.
