Chapter 301: Chapter 301: Ensuring Your Victory

Chu Ge smiled without a word, clearly not going to make any changes to his stance.

Wu Yong shook his head repeatedly, "Young people are too impulsive."

Although he didn’t know why he couldn’t sense the presence of jade in the stones on the table, to claim that all these stones were waste stones? Obviously, that meant an amateurish rhythm in identification. It’s a loss—just moments ago he had slightly esteemed him, turns out he is just a half-baked amateur.

Boss Xu shook his head somewhat helplessly. It seemed that Lady Tang was set to lose this time.

The first stone to be opened was the one Wu Yong had selected. Wu Yong, looking arrogantly at Chu Ge, then commanded the stone opening.

As the Stone Opening Official’s Stone Chisel Hammer fell, the heart of the stone was revealed, and indeed there was a piece of jade inside, but the jade was dull and lackluster, even covered with snake marks, making it obvious that it was a piece of Wasted Jade.

Wasted Jade and waste stone were the same concept.

Wu Yong’s face turned pale in an instant, "How is this possible!"

Even Shen Congwen, who was standing by, changed his expression. He looked at Chu Ge with a strange gaze. Although there was some reluctance in his heart, he didn’t show it on the surface. Even though Wu Yong’s stone was not jade, the young man’s words were even less likely to be true, so they could only end in a draw.

"No way? Wu Yong actually made a mistake."

"So what if he did? How could all the stones on the table be waste stones? As long as one stone isn’t a waste stone, the Tang Family is sure to lose!"

Wu Yong’s face looked a bit ugly, but at this moment, he pinned all his hopes on the stones spread across the table.

With Wu Yong’s stone turning out to be waste, next was to chip away at each stone on the table.

One piece, waste stone.

Two pieces, waste stone.

Three pieces, four pieces... until the fifteenth was revealed, all were waste stones!

Everyone present was stunned. One must know, this was the largest Gambling Stone Field, and to have only four pieces of jade unearthed from a full table of stones, if this got out, the reputation of this Gambling Stone Field would be ruined!

Boss Xu’s face looked terribly troubled. He kept rubbing his hands, fearing the wrath of the two heavyweights.

After all, whether the stones could yield jade was not his decision to make.

What he could do was simply to put the high-priced purchased stones on the table.

Painful, too painful! He had spent no small amount of money on this table of stones!

Tang Xin looked at Chu Ge in surprise. Just moments earlier, she hadn’t held much hope for Chu Ge, but against all odds, fifteen consecutive stones were waste stones. Her heart couldn’t help but be thrilled—it was a lie to say she wasn’t excited. Now, she was filled with anticipation, perhaps, as Chu Ge had said, these were all waste stones.

Now, no one cared why all the stones on the table were waste stones. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the last three stones.

"If these last three are all waste stones, then Young Master Shen has lost both his wife and his soldiers."

"Don’t you guys think this person is very handsome? Even if the remaining stones contain jade, his eye for detail is incredibly sharp!"

Yes, just by lightly scanning over a table full of stones and declaring all to be waste stones, even if one of the last three stones contained jade, it could not stop the deep admiration everyone had for Chu Ge.

"Eldest Young Lady, isn’t this man too godly? He guessed them all right!"

Ah Chu said with some excitement.

Although Tang Xin was also happy inside, she still maintained a bit of rationality. After all, their bet was still on, and as long as there was one piece of jade among the remaining three stones, she would lose!

Just thinking about having to kneel before Shen Congwen and stripping naked for these filthy men to see, filled her with ten thousand kinds of reluctance!!

At this moment, Shen Congwen’s face was also extremely ugly, but he held back, not making a scene.

Wu Yong stood by, constantly wiping the cold sweat off his forehead. Now, only three stones were left. If all these three stones turned out to be waste stones, then his title as the Gambling God would no longer stand! He might even lose his life!

"What are you spacing out for? Keep going." Someone shouted, and the Stone Opening Official picked up another stone to break open.

With each hammering by the Stone Opening Official, Tang Xin’s heart tightened, and she held her hands over her heart, her almond-shaped eyes fixed on the stone.

"Don’t worry, I said I’d make sure you win, and I will."

Chu Ge smiled, but was immediately scolded by Tang Xin, "Don’t talk!"

She was nervous right now!

Chu Ge looked at her anxious little appearance and shook his head speechlessly. In his mind, he inexplicably thought of Mu Bingtong.

Tang Xin’s personality was not as cool as Bingtong’s, nor as fiery as Nangong Man Sha’s. She was like a mischievous sprite, especially with those pretty eyes that seemed to talk.

"Yay!!!" Tang Xin almost jumped up at the instant the stone was split open, "It’s another waste stone!"

Wu Yong’s clothes were soaked in sweat, and he was in total panic now.

Shen Congwen’s face became even uglier, "What’s there to be proud of? There are still two stones left, if any one of them yields jade, then you’ve lost!"

Lifting her chin slightly, Tang Xin looked at him proudly, "Shen Congwen, you’d better worry about yourself. If these two stones also turn out to be waste stones, even you, Young Master Shen, will have to strip naked and put yourself on exhibit at the doorway!"

Honestly, most of the people who came to the Gambling Stone Field were men, so even if Shen Congwen stripped naked and stood at the door for people to see, it wouldn’t be anything special.

They had the same parts that Shen Congwen had on their body; it wasn’t something they were eager to see.

What they really wanted to see was Tang Xin’s body, so everyone there was praying inside, hoping that one of the two remaining stones would reveal a piece of jade.

"Let’s just open one of the next two stones," Chu Ge suggested.

He didn’t like to keep people in suspense. Breaking both stones at once was just a way to shorten the time.

Huo Tianqian was investigating who had swapped the stones that Tang Xin had picked out earlier, and he still hadn’t returned, so he must have run into some trouble.

So he had to make it quick.

"Open one stone!" Wu Yong also nodded in agreement; opening them one at a time was just too torturous. Better to just open them all at once, to face a quick death if that was what awaited.

Now, everyone’s attention was once again fully focused on those two life-and-death-deciding stones.

Holding her breath, Tang Xin watched without blinking, and at some point, her hands clenched Chu Ge’s sleeves tightly.

Chu Ge inhaled a faint fragrance and felt his arm grasped by two soft hands. He glanced at her but said nothing.

"Open!"

The Stone Opening Official cracked both stones at the same time, and the result was clear.

The entire place went silent for three seconds, and then Chu Ge felt as if his left ear had been assaulted.

"Ah ah ah ah!!!" Tang Xin jumped up excitedly, wrapping her arms around Chu Ge’s neck, "They’re waste stones! All waste stones! Hahaha! I won!"
