Chapter 86: Chapter 73: Seeing Zhou Ran Again_2

By September, the sun was still quite strong, causing many people to sweat profusely and become irate, leading one particularly satisfied person to leave.

In fact, Sui Yi was the quickest observer.

She flipped through dozens of stones, and twenty minutes later, picked up a stone the size of a fist.

The moment the Magnetic Sensation entered, she felt something slightly unusual, paying a bit more attention, within a layer of foggy Ice Crystal, there was a hint of a different color.

A pale green the size of an egg, irregular yet captivating, definitely much more pleasing than the previous dull gray and dark moss colors she had seen. When the Magnetic Sensation touched this pale green, she felt a cool moistness; Sui Yi’s palm tingled slightly, the Magnetic Sensation already drawing a wisp of air akin to that of a centennial relic into her body.

"Hmm? This jade’s Magnetic Sensation can also be absorbed? I thought only the aura of relics could..." Sui Yi tilted her head, feeling better.

Firstly, she had found a piece of jade, and secondly, it could also draw Magnetic Sensation to her use, which was very good!

Now the Magnetic Sensation in her body had become dozens of times stronger than before, but it had not yet transformed into Inner Strength, simply because she lacked a specific Martial Arts Cultivation Technique, which was somewhat troublesome...

She would have to pay attention to this aspect in the future.

Deciding in her mind, Sui Yi’s visible smile dazzled the young man next to her, causing him to lose focus and immediately approach her enthusiastically, "Miss Sui, have you made your choice?"

"Hmm... this one"

The young man grinned, looked down, and frowned, reminding her: "This is from the thousand-yuan section... It costs 8000 yuan..."

Seeing that Sui Yi was young, though she was an associate of Elder Tang, buying something for 8000 yuan in one go seemed unlikely. He guessed she had been too absorbed in choosing and hadn’t noticed.

Charmed by her beauty, the young man still felt obliged to remind her.

Unexpectedly, the young lady, upon hearing him, showed no reaction, "I know, thank you for the reminder, can I pay now?"

Sui Yi looked toward the machine next to the raw material area, where someone was specifically collecting money.

The machine clattered, the blade cutting through the stone, and numerous stones were cleaved... people were queued up behind for jade cutting.

Still, there were constantly sighs and sorrows echoing.

As expected, the chances of winning were extremely slim.

"Yes, after you pay, this stone is yours, and you can have it cut... The jade cutting this time is free, as the master has declared it a benefit, although it may not be the case in the Classical Chinese Conference, where cutting will be charged."

Jade-cutting machines are extremely expensive. Even this one, which is not very good, costs tens of thousands, and the lifespan of the blades and machine oil also consume a lot thus charging is necessary.

Of course, you can choose not to have your stone cut here.

However, if not here, then where?

Most people still choose to have their stones cut here, hence the long line, but it moves quite fast.

Sui Yi nodded and proceeded to pay. Just then, Elder Tang and Yu Quan also arrived, not looking very happy. Sui Yi thought they hadn’t found a satisfying piece, but then she saw him gesture with his mouth and followed his gaze.

Over at Boss Qian’s side, there were now two people.

"See? That man who was brimming with righteousness and eloquence, noble in character...now he’s hooked up with a rich girl~~"

Yu Quan’s expression was cold, "I’ve indeed learned something," he said disdainfully, glaring at Boss Qian’s family and the young man.

-- Zhou Ran.

Yu Quan, who always held grudges, seemed strict with Yu Hang on ordinary days, but he actually was extremely satisfied with his only son, loving him to the bones; he wouldn’t tolerate someone unknown slandering his son.

Originally, he was happy to link Sui Yi with his son.

However, this girl was too formidable, and his son couldn’t control her.

So, all the more they should not be linked together.

Seeing Zhou Ren and noticing him together with Qian Fengling, Sui Yi was also surprised. After a brief thought, she nonchalantly smiled at Elder Tang and said, "So, are you upset because of him?"

"Pfft!"

"Heh!"

Each uttered a monosyllable, perfectly expressing their wealthy boss temperament.

Sui Yi shook her head but saw Zhou Ran looking at her, his eyes cold and his expression sour.

Sui Yi did not retreat, merely giving him a faint glance, her gaze as indifferent as ever, as if she had seen a stranger, before naturally starting conversation with Elder Tang.

Unable to contain himself, Zhou Ran withdrew his gaze while Qian Shuangyu sneered, "What, feeling reluctant? But indeed the young lady is pretty... yet it’s not just you who likes her, those other bosses are also quite keen~~"

Zhou Ran’s face darkened, then he quickly smiled and said to Qian Shuangyu, "What nonsense... How could I possibly like such a young girl? It was just a fling... I prefer someone like you, mature and captivating~!!"

And rich... Zhou Ran thought of how his career and monthly salary had skyrocketed after hooking up with this woman *)"
