Lin Shuang was about to be overwhelmed. In a low voice, she asked, “Little Sister Gu, how much money do you have?”
Gu Mang’s eyelids were lowered. Her eyelashes were long and hid the emotion in her eyes.
She scratched the edge of her phone with her nails silently.
Gu Si leaned over and cupped a hand beside his mouth. “My sister doesn’t have much money left. Altogether she has about 60 million.”
Lin Shuang’s face soured. “What now? I’ve acc.u.mulated quite a fair amount of expenses recently and only have 1 million left on my card, while Young Master Lu up there doesn’t lack any money. I don’t think we’ll be able to buy the jade.”
There was a complicated expression on Gu Si’s face as he said, “Sister Lin, have you still not dropped the habit of paying for everyone’s expense whenever you hang out with them?”
Lin Shuang said in a cool, righteous tone, “How could you ask me to drop such a good habit? It brings me joy to help others!”
Gu Si was speechless.
Just then, Gu Mang spoke up. “Lu Chengzhou, huh? I just remembered that he requested my services before. Go tell Yun Ling that this guy is only allowed to request my services if he offers ten times the market rate. And even then, whether I’ll accept the job or not will depend on my mood.”
So he had money, huh.
Sure.
Lin Shuang could not help but laugh. “Understood.”
No one had expected two people to compete for this single piece of jade tonight.
Ten times the market rate!
That would be over 100 million!
Gu Mang stood up. Her exquisite face exuded a chill as she pulled the hood of her jacket over her head and walked out with her hands in her pockets.
“We’ll be going now, Sister Lin.” Gu Si jumped down from the sofa hurriedly and dashed after Gu Mang on his short legs.
…
Gu Mang was in a bad mood. A really, really, bad mood.
Her gaze was cold and her eyes were bloodshot.
She seemed to be shrouded in a depressive cloud.
Gu Si did not dare to provoke his sister, for he had never seen her this depressed.
The crux of the matter was that this piece of jade was of great importance to them.
Moreover, there was nothing his sister could not do or get. Until now.
He followed Gu Mang out of the bar cautiously.
In front of Tian Que’s enormous entrance was a row of VIP parking spots that harbored dozens of expensive sports cars.
A few hedonistic young masters were sitting cross-legged on the hood of a convertible.
When Gu Mang pa.s.sed them, all of them jumped down and blocked her way.
They had noticed Gu Mang when they were in the bar and had been waiting for her to come out.
The hedonistic heirs smiled sinisterly.
“It’s late, girl. Want big bros to send you home?”
“That’s right, girl, it’s already so late. Don’t go back home. There’s a hotel right by us and big bro can book a top-notch suite for you to play with us.”
“Big bro’s sports car is really comfortable. Wanna try?”
Gu Si’s gaze turned frosty, restraint in his large pretty eyes. A wicked smile flashed across his face.
Awesome, they had a death wish.
Gu Mang’s eyes were as calm and as deep as a cold lake. She did not even move and only spat, “Screw off.”
The hedonistic heirs felt even more attracted to the cold beauty. They laughed loudly.
“HAHAHA, she told us to screw off.”
“Girl, how does one screw off? Wanna teach your big bros?”
“Do you mean screw around? Hahaha…”
One of the hedonistic heirs was staring at Gu Mang’s icy face. He felt extremely impatient, and reached out to touch her.
Before he could do so, his arm was caught violently.
A shrill shriek suddenly pierced the night air.
