Chapter 818 - 815: Merely a Shell Without Substance

Chapter 818: Chapter 815: Merely a Shell Without Substance

As soon as Helian Qiao entered the exchange, she took a fancy to a lifelike dragon jade carving and walked up to the stall, "Gu Tingyun, look!"

While speaking, she reached out to touch the dragon’s head.

As soon as she touched it, a pair of hands with jade bracelets and red nail polish snatched the flying dragon away!

An attendant standing by immediately greeted her with a respectful smile, "Miss Li, you’re here!"

"Hmm, I’ve come to have a look!"

Miss Li held the flying dragon and looked it over with a casual gaze, her eyes frequently glancing at Helian Qiao beside her.

Because the woman in front of her was simply too beautiful!

Seventeen-year-old Helian Qiao’s baby fat was no longer noticeable, but she still looked a bit chubby, her skin was delicate, her lips red and teeth white, and her large, clear eyes were especially flawless; based on her face alone, she was pure and sweet to the extreme!

But she was also 1.72 meters tall, and though she wore a loose-fitting dress, one could still make out her shapely figure, with a slender waist and long legs. She embodied an innocent charm mixed with allure, precisely what men loved most and women envied the most!

And to have such a handsome boyfriend like Gu Tingyun by her side, with a height of 1.93 meters, tall and upright, extraordinarily handsome, and emanating an aura that made people involuntarily respectful.

The moment the pair appeared, they attracted the attention of many!

Miss Li was one of them.

She sized them up and noticed they weren’t wearing any international brands, and even the watches they wore were just domestically produced, which made her sneer inwardly.

Wearing domestic brands and daring to come to such a place, they must at best come from a somewhat moneyed family.

In Harbor City, such small families are a dime a dozen and can’t even make it to the table!

Helian Qiao didn’t compete with her for it because the jade carving had no spiritual energy at all, it was all form and no substance.

The Little Princess only needed to touch it to feel the spiritual energy inside the jade, the denser the spiritual energy, the better the ice variety!

Moreover, the Golden Dragon Clan was uniquely lucky; even a casual purchase could yield an ice variety!

The Little Princess wouldn’t settle for ordinary pieces, if she were to buy, she’d go for something big!

She turned around and left, wandering around, and Gu Tingyun, knowing her mind, said nothing.

The staff didn’t care about the few little shrimps and asked Miss Li with a smile, "Miss Li, would you like me to pack it up for you now?"

Miss Li replied irritably, "Pack what? This trinket? I don’t fancy it at all!"

Such things are only meant to deceive amateurs.

To deceive her? Not a chance!

The trio walked further inside and saw several raw stones displayed on countertops, already surrounded by many people.

"What’s this for?" Helian Qiao curiously asked.

Ma Dashuai, who had done his homework upon arrival, explained, "These are raw stones that could be cut to reveal jade; each is priced differently. Clients spend money to buy the stones and then have the owner cut them open. If the jade inside is of good quality, they can either keep it or have the owner auction it off right there."

"One cut for poverty, one cut for wealth, or one cut and you’ll be wearing sackcloth," Gu Tingyun added leisurely.

Helian Qiao nodded, understanding that the stones contained jade, "Then let’s buy this one."

She walked up confidently and placed her hand on a raw stone, feeling the spiritual energy within.

Miss Li, who followed alongside, laughed scornfully at this scene, "Really, any bumpkin can show up here!"

The trio ignored her, and Miss Li suddenly felt frustrated and annoyed, but she didn’t leave.

She intended to stand by and watch, eager to see the bumpkin’s ridiculous and hideous expression after spending a fortune on a raw stone and failing to reveal any jade.
