The Beautiful CEO’s Dragon Blood Bodyguard
Chapter 253 - 0253: Passed Out

Chapter 253: Chapter 0253: Passed Out

The people at the stone gambling shop were all cleared out in a moment, and Sixth Master Tan and his three companions were the last to leave.

They had only spent five or six hundred thousand and each bought four or five ice-type jade gamble stones.

The stone-cutting master cut open the stones one by one, his heart trembling with each cut.

Never had they seen so many good materials cut open in a single day.

These gamble stones could turn a tenfold profit with just a single flip.

The four men’s admiration for Long Fei grew even stronger, amazed as if they had met someone celestial, and their hearts grew more intent on currying favor with this young brother.

If anyone dared to speak ill of Long Fei now, they could flay that person alive.

The other players also took advantage of great deals, as all the stones they bought following Long Fei’s indications turned out to have green.

Although they were of a lower grade, containing saponite or seed jade.

Even so, it was enough to make them happy.

Everyone left in high spirits, some even catching up to Long Fei to try and cozy up, wanting to collaborate with Long Fei for a big venture.

Long Fei politely refused, tossed the gamble stones into the trunk, and told Lin Shanshan to drive away quickly.

This method of clairvoyance was not something he could use at will.

If used too long, it caused dizziness and blurred vision, and he feared he might die suddenly from overexertion.

As the car started, he fell asleep on the back seat.

His head resting on Lin Yingying’s thigh felt soft and smooth, very comfortable with its elasticity.

Lin Yingying shook him and blushed as she called out, "Hey, are you looking to die? Get up quickly!"

She thought Long Fei was deliberately taking advantage, which was too impetuous, barely in the car and already acting inappropriately.

However, Long Fei was like he had fainted; no matter how much she shook him, there was no response.

Lin Shanshan saw this from the rearview mirror and asked worriedly, "Elder sister, could Brother Long be sick?"

Lin Yingying also panicked, checking for Long Fei’s breath by placing her hand in front of his nose, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she felt his breathing.

She didn’t know what happened to Long Fei, but she had noticed that he seemed unusually lethargic during the final selection of the stones, even walking unsteadily.

She hurriedly instructed Lin Shanshan, "Drive straight to An Taiyan’s house, we’ll have him take a look!"

"Okay!"

Lin Shanshan stepped on the gas without delay and immediately drove there.

Long Fei’s face rested on Lin Yingying’s leg, like a sleeping child, his mouth and nose exhaling warm breath.

Lin Yingying’s leg felt ticklish as her eyes fixed on Long Fei, her hand involuntarily stroking his head.

She thought to herself that if the check-up finds nothing wrong, she had to give this playboy a good beating.

Inside the stone gambling shop, Mu Tianyou had everyone cleared out before taking his subordinates to tally the day in the courtyard.

In total, over a hundred gamble stones had been sold that day, with just Long Fei and the group of four including Sixth Master Tan taking nearly thirty stones.

Almost all the good materials in the yard had been swept clean.

Mu Tianyou, holding a gamble stone, angrily threw it aside, swearing furiously, "What are this bastard’s origins, damn it!"

With Zheng Lili gone, he had no one to even ask.

Awang, at his side, offered, "Young master, want me to give him a lesson?"

"Of course!"

Mu Tianyou was seething with irritation, naturally not willing to let this slide.

Awang declared, "Then wait for good news, young master, killing him will be as easy as stepping on an ant."

Mu Tianyou did not respond; even if something happened, it would be Awang’s decision, not his problem.

He simply instructed his subordinates to investigate Long Fei’s background immediately.

On a street near the sea in the city area, there was a row of stores built in an antique style, not far from the stone gambling shop.

This was a tourist district developed by Binhai City, said to be the site of Binhai’s ancient city ruins.

Inside was a chaotic mix of ancient artifacts of all kinds.

Selling embroidery, basketry, porcelain—it was the largest antique street in East China Province.

An Taiyan’s house was located here, with a traditional Chinese medicine clinic at the front and a two-entry, two-exit quadrangle at the back.

Those in traditional Chinese medicine, like those interested in antiques, favored this kind of old-style environment.

Long Fei was too heavy for Lin Yingying and Lin Shanshan to move.

Lin Yingying’s thigh had gone numb from his weight and she hadn’t been able to pull it out from under his head.

She asked her sister to hurry in and call for help.

After a while, An Taiyan came out personally.

When he heard that Long Fei had come, his eyes immediately lit up.

Last time Long Fei treated Elder Shen, An Taiyan had truly been eye-opening.

Previously, at Lin Yingying’s invitation, he had taken Long Fei’s pulse.

Lin Yingying asked anxiously, "Grandpa An, my friend isn’t in trouble, is he?"

An Taiyan released his hand and said with a furrowed brow, "What have you all been up to? How did he become so exhausted?"

"Exhausted?"

Lin Yingying and Lin Shanshan simultaneously tightened their brows.

An Taiyan said, "Yes, he’s alright, just tired. Let him sleep in the car for a bit, and I reckon he’ll be fine soon!"

Lin Yingying and Lin Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief, secretly wondering if Long Fei’s condition had anything to do with his x-ray vision.

Lin Yingying struggled to extract her thigh, wiped the drool off her leg with a tissue after getting out of the car.

This guy, using it as a pillow and sleeping, even drooling.

Just now, his mouth was on it, as if on purpose.

Lin Yingying even suspected he was faking sleep.

Lin Shanshan, watching from the side, couldn’t help but laugh and teased, "Sis, feels good to be so close to your brother-in-law, huh?"

"Get lost!"

Lin Yingying gave her a glare.

Soon, a delicate voice called out, "Sister Yingying, Shanshan, why have you come?"

A demure girl emerged, it was An Taiyan’s granddaughter, An Xiaoke.

She was at home today and rushed out from the backyard as soon as she heard that Lin Yingying and the others had come over.

The two greeted her with smiles and were about to leave, but An Xiaoke invited them in for tea.

This homebody usually disliked socializing, with only a handful of friends.

So seeing Lin Yingying and the others was a genuine delight.

The three women sat down in the waiting area of the pharmacy, the sunlight pouring in through the windows and lighting up the hall brightly.

An Xiaoke brewed some tea and asked curiously, "Where have you been, how did you tire that guy out so much?"

Lin Shanshan, holding her gamble stone, placed it on the table and told her, "Look, after watching gamble stones all morning, that guy ended up like that."

"Gamble stone?"

An Xiaoke furrowed her brows, not expecting them to be interested in that.

She opened the stone and immediately had her attention captured by the smooth jade surface inside, her eyes widening.

"Such beautiful jade!"

An Xiaoke touched it in surprise, her usual interest in antiques had her collecting some old items as well.

She had quite a few jade bracelets in her jewelry box, but speaking of jade quality, not one compared to this piece.

An Taiyan had someone prepare some medicine for Long Fei to brew, and came over to take a curious look at the gamble stone.

Even he was attracted to the stone, touching it in amazement and said, "Second Miss, is this what you just bought?"

Lin Shanshan nodded with a smile.

An Taiyan’s beard trembled as he said, "Fine jade indeed, I have lived so long but never seen jade of this quality before."

His fingers trembled as he touched it.

The quality was gentle, without a trace of impurity.

It was translucent inside, as if made of water.

Lin Shanshan asked him, "Grandpa An, are there any good jade craftsmen around here? My sister and I want to commission a few bracelets."

Clutching the gamble stone, An Taiyan couldn’t bear to put it down, nodding continuously, "Yes, I have an old friend who is known as the ’Jade King of Binhai’. His skills are passed down from ancestors, this piece of jade should be worked on by him."

Lin Shanshan and her sister exchanged a look, their faces full of joy.

Not only is the jade material good, but having a skilled craftsman is also crucial.

Without a good artisan, such fine material would be wasted.

Lin Shanshan had An Taiyan immediately contact the Jade King.

An Taiyan intended to do just that, eager to have his old friend come over and admire this rare treasure.

Jade enthusiasts, upon seeing fine jade, are like Chu Feng upon seeing a beautiful woman, a joy that others cannot understand.

After making the call, he curiously asked Lin Shanshan, "Second Miss, your gamble stone must have been expensive, right?"

He dabbled in jade gambling, not as obsessed, but he knew the market.

Such high-quality jade, even if it came from a gamble stone, must be worth millions.
