Adam's apple and collarbone...I heard a lot of swallowing sounds."......Is this a star She's so beautiful...""Is this a man""This is too amazing, I want to pounce on them! What should I do!""Take a qu...The bamboo house's gate was shut by guards, and several figures stood by the windows inside. They were both guards and attendants.

When I passed by them, they didn't stop me. It seems that the small gate leading to the backyard is passable.

There are many people here, and the host is again holding a microphone and speaking eloquently, in local dialect. I can't understand it.

But the eldest sister seemed to understand. She narrowed her eyes and sneered, watching by the door as the gamblers raised their placards one by one. In the end, this large stone was sold for an apparent million. If you wanted to take a look and then decide not to buy it, it would cost ten thousand to just have a glance.

I just can't understand these people's mindset. I probably won't ever gamble in my life — too poor for it.

Although my family is well-off and I don't have to worry about food and clothing, I myself don't have the ability to make money.

Mu Wanchen gave me a lot of gems. I entrusted Mr. Lu to help me realize their value, and he did his best, but all this money is used to maintain the livelihood of the people in Wuwangshan City. I don't feel like a rich man at all.

Looking at these wealthy gamblers going crazy over a piece of stone, I kind of don't understand.

Just now, Brother Xie said that this mine is incredible.

The output is very small, and the stones taken out for gambling almost never result in losing one's entire fortune. Most of them contain "precious jade" within.

To many people who cultivate themselves, jade is considered a spiritual object.

Jade is the essence of stone.

Mrs. Lu's husband is an ordinary person, why does he have this ability to tell if there is jade inside

And the surprise was seeing my eldest sister here.

She is the eldest sister, and she has more things to do outside. Sometimes going out for a long time is normal. The eldest brother wouldn't impose any restrictions either. Seeing her now wearing traditional clothing, I suddenly feel like she's become a different person.

This is not the senior sister I'm familiar with.

While I was lost in thought, hiding in a corner, someone bumped into me. It was a man who slightly bowed his head to apologize and then walked towards the back door. My senior sister, seeing that someone had arrived, turned and left first.

That little door seems to be freely passable Is it the way to the restroom

I followed closely behind.

Outside the little gate, there is a bamboo corridor built along a stream.

With only a few lanterns carried, the servants were clearly far fewer than before.

This bamboo corridor leads to the back half of the estate, with only two women guarding the end of the corridor.

The eldest sister's figure disappeared around the bend. I pulled my scarf tighter around my head, pretending to be lost and ready to ask where the restroom was.

After all, this is a place of business, right next to the border. It's not heavily guarded like the territory of warlords or drug lords.

But I was still stopped, two women asked me a bunch of stuff I couldn't understand. I was getting nervous, and suddenly someone put their hand on my shoulder.

My heart skipped a beat, and I reached for my bag.

That hand immediately let go, making a gesture of surrender, and said "sorry" in English.

This is the man who just bumped into me. He seemed to be going to the restroom and then saw me here, so he came over to talk to me.

He opened his mouth and spoke in a Hong Kong/Taiwan accent: "Miss, I think you look like you're pregnant"

I was startled. How did this person see through me

He gave me a sly grin and glanced at my stomach. “You subconsciously cover your belly, and with this one-piece dress, your slightly protruding belly is obvious… I’m a doctor, you know, I can tell just by looking.”

"Am I pregnant any of your business " I raised an eyebrow slightly, ignoring his Hong Kong accent and walked around him back the way I came.

"Hey hey hey, miss, how about we talk this over" The man quickly caught up to me.

"What are you discussing" I couldn't help but ask.

He smiled in a very strange way: "... You're coming here, aren't you being invited to do that kind of thing"

"Huh" I was taken aback. What kind of thing was that

His eyes didn't look friendly at all, I always felt like there was something shady about this person.

"Cough... Don't you know what the boss here has a unique hobby" He grinned wickedly.

This Hong Kong-Taiwan accent doesn't sound very serious. I walked to the side and around him, whispering, "I can't understand what you're saying, sorry, please move aside."

"Hey Miss, miss, let's talk..." He wouldn't give up and stopped me: "The money is no problem, one million dollars enough"

What Ten million dollars Are you asking for that much right off the bat

He probably thought I heard about the money and grinned, "… The boss here loves to drink milk~~ Everyone knows it in private~ You're pregnant, are you here to apply Hahaha, so beautiful, give this boss a chance~~~"

This...this, what the...

His oily and slick voice, coupled with this kind of alternative veiled statement, made me blush and feel a little angry.

But now I have to keep a low profile, can't make a fuss. I tried hard to hold back my anger and gave him a withering look. If my white parrot, Bai Ni, was here, I'd let it give you a tail whip and send you splashing into the water!

He looked at me gloomily: “Ten million dollars, I only have one request, you take the opportunity to feed this drug to that boss... Don't worry, this won't be fatal, it will only paralyze him...”

"Do you have a grudge" I asked, frowning.

"Haha, you don't need to worry about this."

I bet this person is after the money, with stones here being so valuable, he must want to take the most expensive ones.

But what does this have to do with me!

"Sorry, you'd better find someone else. Why should I help you with these dangerous things You can just hire a few nannies for this ten million dollars."

I turned to leave, suddenly something icy pressed against my waist.

Handgun.

"... it's not just you who has a gun, Miss," he sneered. "If I had to find someone, I'd come looking for you."

"Why" My heart skipped a beat.

"Because... you're a new face... he'll be interested in you, and it'll give you a chance to get close to him. This drug melts through saliva, so you can try feeding it into his mouth, or... putting it on your X head. Anyway, he likes to eat..."

I wipe... What the heck is this black eat black thing

Since I didn't go back, Xie Ge came out to look for me. Passing over this man's shoulder, I saw Xie Ge instinctively make a motion of reaching for his gun.

I immediately raised my hand, signaling Brother Xie not to act rashly.

The man before me laughed, “Agreed That’s great~ Let me do you a favor, Miss. I have a contact who can get you in, hahaha. It's very simple, just as long as you’re clever enough, you have a chance, after the job is done, ten million yours.”

After everything is done, here I am, with your gun pointed at me. Who knows if you'll silence me after we succeed

Well, actually, I really need someone to take me in so that I can see what's going on with Sister Lu's husband and Senior Sister, why she would appear here!

By now, I have a growing suspicion that the eldest sister is a traitor. She has betrayed not only our family but also Ms. Xue.

I previously thought that Senior Sister and Ms. Xue were on the same side. After all, Ms. Xue is my mother, and she's Senior Sister's teacher. Maybe her teacher had ordered her to obey, so I assumed that after running away from home, she was waiting for Senior Brother to cool down, for my parents to reconcile. She was still considered a hero in my eyes.

Now it seems she has a side we never knew about at all.

He is undoubtedly a traitor.

"What are you daydreaming about Get lost, or I swear I won't care if you're pregnant—I'll kill you!" not Xiao Yinluo. If it were Xiao Yinluo, she could even see the insect gu and Gu spirits.The foul stench was repelled by Jiang Qiyun's golden divine spell. At this moment, it disappeared to who know...
