Chapter 20: Who Is Gu Qingchen?

She had been so focused on the jade that she had almost forgotten that Tang Feng, the playboy, had taken advantage of her. Now, he had stolen her jade.
He was really a domineering CEO!
Tang Feng hugged the three-colored jade tightly with both hands and took a few steps back. He looked at Gu Qingchen warily. “What do you mean?”
The look in his eyes was as if Gu Qingchen was trying to force him. Gu Qingchen rolled her eyes in her heart. “Young Master Tang, it seems like you are holding my jade in your hands. I haven’t even said that I’m going to sell it, yet you are taking it by force. Is that really okay?”
Tang Feng also realized that he had done something wrong, but he really liked the three-colored jade very much. He could only ask, “Tell me, what price do you want to sell it for?”!!
“You can sell yourself off. Sell your entire family!”
Upon hearing Tang Feng’s words, Gu Qingchen cursed silently in her heart, but her expression did not change.
Before Gu Qingchen could say anything, Ding Hao, who had been staring at the three-colored jade by the side, also lost his composure and hurriedly said, “Young Master Tang, this three-colored jade belongs to this young lady. Even if she wants to sell it, it will be a free auction. I don’t think that only the two of us are interested in this three-colored jade.”
If it were not for the special circumstances, Ding Hao would not want to offend Tang Feng. It was not a good thing to be remembered by Young Master Tang.
“Hehe, looks like you want to snatch it from me.”
Tang Feng’s expression darkened slightly. The corners of his mouth held a trace of a fiery smile. He narrowed his phoenix-like eyes, and a solemn look flashed across his eyes.
Seeing Tang Feng like this, Gu Qingchen was stunned. She did not expect that the carefree Tang Feng would have this side of him.
Ding Hao was actually frightened by Tang Feng like this. His entire head was covered in sweat and his face was as pale as a sieve.
Gu Qingchen gave him a side glance. Tang Feng… was he that powerful?
So powerful that it made the boss of the biggest jewelry store in City Y feel as if he was facing a great enemy?
It was better for her to stay away from such a person.
Perhaps in this life, she could also reach Tang Feng’s height, but definitely not now.
Faced with Tang Feng’s dominance, Ding Hao still lost in the end. He was dejected as if he had missed out on a treasure.
Even Ding Hao did not dare to fight with Tang Feng, which meant that other than Tang Feng, no one else dared to buy Gu Qingchen’s three-colored jade. With this move, even Gu Qingchen had to admit that Tang Feng was indeed overbearing.
This was the strength of power.
It could easily crush everything.
Although Gu Qingchen liked the three-colored jade, she was short of money now. Naturally, she would not be unreasonable and not sell it.
“Ten million, I want it.”
Young Master Tang used an absolute number and threw it down.
After a little calculation, Gu Qingchen knew that the ten million that Tang Feng offered her was high and not low.
Gu Qingchen had her own plans. Since Tang Feng had such great influence, she was willing to do him a favor. After all, she was not willing to do anything to offend the mighty.
“Five million is enough.”
Tang Feng was very surprised. He thought that a greedy woman like Gu Qingchen, who would sell a piece of useless jade for six million, would definitely continue to increase the price in order to maximize the benefits.
However, he did not expect Gu Qingchen to not increase the price, but to cut the price by half.
He really could not understand Gu Qingchen, but her way of doing things had indeed made him a lot more comfortable.
Previously, he had not been able to overcome his perfectionism, but now it was equivalent to him spending ten million dollars on a three-colored jade, and that scrap jade was equivalent to a gift.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that the world was beautiful again.
At least Gu Qingchen was tactful!
Gu Qingchen stopped Tang Feng from taking the check. Instead, she said, “I’ll give you an account. You can just transfer it directly.”
There were too many people here, and she was just a little girl. Holding a five-million-dollar check would attract attention.
Tang Feng took a deep look at Gu Qingchen and smiled carelessly. “Aren’t you worried that I’ll just take it and not give you the money?”
“The young master of the Tang Group would never cheat such a small amount of money from me.”
Gu Qingchen was so sure because she had seen through Tang Feng’s character of a Virgo pursuing perfection. With Tang Feng’s character, if he really owed her money, he would probably feel uncomfortable all over. Every time he saw the three-colored jade, he would feel that it was not perfect enough.
Gu Qingchen naturally would not tell Tang Feng about this.
Tang Feng was very happy this time. He held the three-colored jade happily and even gave Gu Qingchen a flirtatious air kiss before leisurely going to the second floor.
Not everyone could go up to the second floor.
Gu Qingchen ignored the air kiss and followed Tang Feng’s back to look at the room on the second floor. Unfortunately, the window on the second floor should be specially made so that the situation downstairs could be seen from inside, but the person inside could not be seen from downstairs.
The person who did not appear was not that simple either.
However, this had nothing to do with her. Today’s surprise was already out of her expectations.
Gu Qingchen needed to calm down and think about what was going to happen next.
She had the ability to read minds and had a photographic memory. Now, she could even feel jade. The only thing that Gu Qingchen could be sure of was that there were problems with her body and mind.
What was the reason? Could it be related to her experience before she was reborn?
Before she was reborn, in order to pay off her father’s debt, she became a drug test subject. During the last test of the drug, she died in pain.
The change in her body happened after that. Could it be that the change in her body was related to the drug?
What kind of drug was it?
Regardless of whether it was related or not, it was something that happened before she was reborn. There was no trace of it. If she wanted to find out the reason for her change, she could only dig deep and slowly study it.
Fortunately, she now had the Hundred Herb Hall and a master who was said to be highly skilled in medicine. If there was something wrong with her body, she would be able to find out.
Although Gu Qingchen really wanted to continue choosing the raw stones, she considered that she had attracted a lot of attention today, so she decided to give up. Anyway, she knew that she had the ability to feel jade. There was still a long way to go.
Feeling the IOU in her pocket, Gu Qingchen felt a trace of warmth in her heart.
In this life, her parents would finally never leave her again.
Just as Gu Qingchen was about to leave, the sound of police cars could be heard from outside. Very quickly, a few policemen walked in with big strides. Their expressions were serious as if something big had happened.
Although this kind of stone gambling venue was not popular, the government would not interfere, but with so many policemen suddenly coming, everyone was a little confused.
When Gu Qingchen saw the sorry figure behind the police officers, the corners of her lips lifted slightly, the corners of her eyes lengthened, and she smiled meaningfully.
“Officer, I am the person in charge here, what are you…”
Seeing so many police officers coming, the boss of the stone gambling venue quickly walked over to ask.
The leading officer had a square face, and his face was full of righteousness.
“Which one of you is Gu Qingchen?”
Looking for Gu Qingchen?
Everyone looked at Gu Qingchen. The police officer immediately knew who Gu Qingchen was and walked straight towards her.
