“Aren’t you being ridiculous? I don’t know who told you that I’m in a relationship with Qin Yifan, but let me tell you that we’re just normal friends. We aren’t and won’t be boyfriend and girlfriend,” Gu Ning looked down at Qin Yiqing with confidence. Qin Yiqing was mad at her attitude.
However, before Qin Yiqing could respond, Gu Ning continued, “And, I can’t care less about your check of five hundred thousand yuan. In fact, Qin Yifan bought the King’s Green and Fulushou jade from me!”
Although Gu Ning wanted to keep it a secret, she wasn’t willing to be humiliated in public by Qin Yiqing. She had to defend her dignity.
Gu Ning understood that the rich never liked the poor, but she never accepted insults.
“What?” Hearing that, Qin Yiqing was quite surprised. Qin Yifan bought the King’s Green and Fulushou jade from Gu Ning?
Which meant that Gu Ning wasn’t a Cinderella at all, but a rich girl with dozens of million yuan in assets?
Dozens of million yuan were nothing in Qin Yiqing’s eyes, but she knew that it was a lot for a young girl.
“I don’t mind if Qin Yifan tells you what I’ve done in City G. Besides, please don’t despise others just because you’re richer than them. I’m inferior to the Qin Family for now, but no one knows what’s going to happen in the future!” Gu Ning said coldly before she turned around walking away.
Qin Yiqing was struck dumb. City G? What has happened in City G?
After a while, Qin Yiqing called Qin Yifan. The minute that Qin Yifan answered her call, she asked without delay, “Where are you?”
“Why do you ask?” Qin Yifan replied with impatience. Qin Yifan went back to his home when he found out that Li Zhenzhen had left for City G, but he thought that Qin Yiqing called him for Li Zhenzhen, so he didn’t tell her that he was home.
“I want to ask you something about Gu Ning,” Qin Yiqing understood that Qin Yifan didn’t want to hear more about Li Zhenzhen. Thus she directly told him that it was about Gu Ning.
“What? What happened to Gu Ning?” Hearing that, Qin Yifan got nervous all of a sudden.
Knowing Qin Yifan cared about Gu Ning so much, Qin Yiqing was upset. But it wasn’t the right time to argue with her younger brother now.
Qin Yiqing said, “She’s fine. I just want to ask you something. It isn’t convenient to talk on the phone. Where are you? I need to see you.”
“I’m home.” Qin Yifan indeed cared about Gu Ning very much.
Qin Yiqing immediately left the cafe driving to the house of the Qin Family.
Thirty minutes later, she arrived at the house.
She met Qin Yifan in the hall, her parents were there too. Qin Yiqing didn’t have time to greet them, but asked Qin Yifan directly, “Yifan, did Gu Ning sell you the King’s Green and the Fulushou jade?”
Qin Yiqing wanted the confirmation from Qin Yifan. “How do you know that?” Qin Yifan was surprised.
“What? You bought the King’s Green and the Fulushou jade from the young girl named Gu Ning?” Qin Haozheng was also astonished. He had an impression of Gu Ning, because Gu Ning had sent him the precious glass with deer heads.
“Yes,” Qin Yifan answered. Then he turned to Qin Yiqing again. “How did you know that?”
Gu Ning had told him to keep it a secret. Did his staff tell Qin Yiqing? Thinking of that, Qin Yifan was slightly annoyed. He decided to have an investigation into it later.
However, Qin Yiqing said, “I just talked to her.”
“What? Why?” Qin Yifan abruptly stood up from the sofa. He had a premonition.
Qin Yiqing told Qin Yifan what she had done, which greatly irritated Qin Yifan. Qin Yifan almost yelled at her, “I told you not to interfere in my personal affairs. Why did you still do that? I like her, but she doesn’t know yet. You did that to humiliate her on purpose! Why!”
It was the first time Qin Yifan had lost his temper. The whole family was stunned.
“Yiqing, you indeed shouldn’t have done that. Don’t forget your manners!” Qin Haozheng was also mad at Qin Yiqing’s behavior.
“You want to know what has happened in City G right. Very well, let me tell you now.” Qin Yifan was in a rage that his older sister disliked Gu Ning. Since Gu Ning didn’t mind him telling Qin Yiqing the facts, he told his family about everything that had happened in City G. He told his family that Gu Ning had bet with Li Zhenzhen, and that he had bought the high-level jade Gu Ning had cut out at the price of a hundred and thirty million yuan. His family was shocked. However, what shocked them more was the following words.
“And the Fulushou jade. It was bigger than a fist, which is worth over a hundred million yuan, but she used it to make jewelry for her family! What I got was the leftover part of the jade. Do you think she, whose wealth is over a hundred million yuan, will care for your check of five hundred thousand yuan?” Qin Yifan asked in a sarcastic tone.
“What?”
His family was now more than shocked. A Fulushou jade that was bigger than a fist?
“She can’t compare with our Qin Family now, but who knows what will happen in the future? She isn’t an ordinary girl,” Qin Yifan said icily, then he walked out without hesitation.
The second he was out of the room, Qin Yifan called Gu Ning to apologize to her.
At that time, Gu Ning was already home. She was surfing on the Internet for information about Yuntai Mountain. She firstly checked whether there was any caves on Yuntai Mountain, but she found no answer.
Yuntai Mountain was a tourist attraction. Since no one mentioned the cave, it was highly possible that it hadn’t been found out yet.
Then, Gu Ning checked whether there were any stories or legends of Yuntai Mountain to help the search for clues. She indeed found a legend of Yuntai Mountain!
It was said that during the Qing Dynasty, the prefect of a certain state had been found guilty of bribery and corruption. The emperor had dismissed him for investigation. Then the corrupt official with his whole family had fled and come to the Yuntai Mountain.
What had happened next hadn’t been recorded. Until half a year later, someone had found a body at the foot of Yuntai Mountain. A wide jade ring with a Chinese character “Liu” engraved on it had been found on the man’s finger. It had been confirmed later that this body was the famous prefect Liujiang.
People hadn’t found out that Liujiang had been hiding in the Yuntai Mountain until then.
Liujiang had brought a lot of gold, jewelry and so forth with him to the Yuntai Mountain. The government, therefore, had sent many soldiers to search the mountain. However, the Yuntai Mountain was a dangerous place. The government had given up after a few days of searching in vain.
Because of this legend, many said that there was precious stuff hidden in the Yuntai Mountain, but the legend was a legend after all. It hadn’t been proved to be true, so no one actually believed it.
“Aren’t you being ridiculous? I don’t know who told you that I’m in a relationship with Qin Yifan, but let me tell you that we’re just normal friends. We aren’t and won’t be boyfriend and girlfriend,” Gu Ning looked down at Qin Yiqing with confidence. Qin Yiqing was mad at her attitude.
