Chapter 119: Chapter 119: The Homeless Uncle

Actually, deep down inside... tears streamed down her face.

It wasn’t that she wanted to become a nun, but King Yama had said her relationships were doomed to end poorly.

As a person born under the lonely star of destruction, she was destined for a life full of hardships and loneliness, and to undergo numerous trials of love. Only when her merit was complete could she break the curse.

Completing her merit... she didn’t want to think about that in this lifetime.

Since every relationship was fated to fail, she decided not to experience them at all. She wasn’t a masochist, after all, so why make life difficult for herself?

The thought of completely cutting off romantic desires actually made her live more lucidly and comfortably and allowed her to focus on her career.

This lifetime, she’d rely on her golden finger to indulge in a wealthy lifestyle first...

However, she was still far from living the life of a tycoon!

Lin Zhi couldn’t help worrying about money, but unexpectedly, she was about to become rich very soon...

...

The jade gambling event would go on for a month, but this week was the golden week, with many good raw stones appearing.

The next day, Ji Feifan took her to the market to try her luck.

Country D was a major jade mining nation, and its jade market was extremely bustling. Most of the newly mined raw stones were sold there.

Only those raw stones that were very likely to yield good quality jade would be sold at auction.

With the peak season underway, the jade market was extraordinarily lively.

There were not only various sizes of raw stones but also jade ornaments of different qualities. Lin Zhi was dazzled by the array and almost impulsively bought a couple of bracelets to wear.

"Want to buy?" Ji Feifan saw what she was thinking.

"Mm, I want to buy one for my mom and a few nice ones for myself." Lin Zhi, now with a bit of money, began to care about her external image.

Wearing jade on the wrist looked good and lent a sense of class, as well as culture.

It was also great to buy as collectibles.

"Good idea. But they overcharge a lot here, and the waters run deep. You won’t choose well on your own. Let Master Zhong help you pick a few in a bit." Ji Feifan glanced at Zhong Qishan at his side.

Zhong Qishan smiled and said, "No problem. Miss Lin, if you see something you like, just let me lend you a hand."

"Thank you, Master Zhong." Lin Zhi smiled happily, then started browsing with ease.

"Young lady, would you like to buy a raw stone? A hundred bucks each, and if you cut it open, you might find jade. The price could skyrocket by thousands or even ten thousand times. If you find top-grade jade, you’ll make a fortune!" Seeing Lin Zhi looking around, a vendor called out enthusiastically.

Lin Zhi was indeed interested in the idea of gambling on stones—a hundred bucks could win a jackpot.

But she guessed that stones sold for a hundred bucks probably wouldn’t yield any significant prize.

If they could yield jade, why wouldn’t the sellers keep them for themselves?

"No, thank you," Lin Zhi declined politely.

"Miss, this raw stone looks good. There’s a seventy to eighty percent chance it contains jade!" Suddenly, a burly man rushed over and enthusiastically began showing her the stone.

Lin Zhi looked closely... wasn’t this the bearded vagabond she had seen in the restaurant the night before?

Ji Feifan said he used to be wealthy but gambled everything away overnight.

Could you trust the judgment of someone who had lost his entire fortune in one night?

Lin Zhi smiled politely, "I’m not buying raw stones, thank you."

"This one really will yield jade, just a hundred bucks. Buy it and try, I assure you there’s no mistake!" the vagabond continued to persuade enthusiastically.

Lin Zhi didn’t understand his motives.
