Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress - Chapter 579
Chapter 579: What if Something Happened?
In the dining room, four people were talking.
The girl who spoke first was called Yu Qin. She took the initiative to speak to Su Huiqing. “Madam, this one is called Yu Qin.”
“Su Huiqing.” Su Huiqing smiled. “You don’t have to call me Madam. Just call me by my name.”
The three of them didn’t dare to call Su Huiqing by her name. In the end, they called her Miss Su.
Su Huiqing didn’t refuse. It was better than calling her Madam. It was strange.
“Miss Su, where are you from?” Yu Qin’s eyes flashed with gossip.
Su Huiqing told him about Green City.
Green City. The three of them had never heard of it before and were a little lost.
Su Huiqing explained.
The three of them looked at each other. It was actually there. Wasn’t that a place for ordinary people?
Thinking about Yu Shijin’s identity, the three of them glanced at Su Huiqing and tacitly didn’t mention her identity. They couldn’t make Madam feel awkward.
“Miss Su, are you also going to the stone-cutting convention?” Yu Qin smiled at Su Huiqing and changed the topic. “Luckily, you are here this year. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have the chance to go.”
“You guys didn’t go in the past?” Su Huiqing narrowed her eyes.
“Young Master has never been bothered to go to crowded places,” Yu Qin muttered. She suddenly thought of a problem. “But we don’t have a stone-cutting master this time. How are we going?”
“Stone-cutting master?” Su Huiqing narrowed her eyes.
Yu Qin recalled that Su Huiqing was from Green City and definitely didn’t know about stone gambling. Thus, she explained enthusiastically.
Su Huiqing didn’t stop Yu Qin. She had never been able to reject such kind intentions.
“It’s a pity.” Yu Yan shook his head. “We were in too much of a hurry this time and didn’t prepare a stone-cutting master. Otherwise, we could still show off at this stone gambling event.”
“Didn’t I hear that someone dissected a level seven stone last time?” Yu Qin’s eyes lit up. “I wonder which family will dissect another this time.”
“A level seven stone?” Yu Han was still eating. Upon hearing this, he frowned. “I think it has been refuted. It was released by a shop to hype things up.”
“It’s actually a publicity stunt?” Yu Qin sighed. “But that’s true. Not everyone can gamble on a level seven stone.”
“Is it very difficult to dissect a level seven stone?” Su Huiqing pointed at her chin and smiled at the three of them.
“Of course!” Yu Qin glanced at Su Huiqing and suddenly recalled that she was not from overseas. She probably didn’t know how difficult it was so she didn’t find it strange. Instead, she explained before saying, “After so many years, only one person managed to solve a level ten stone. I wonder who could dissect the stone with the highest level this time.”
Su Huiqing was deep in thought. “So it’s difficult. I want to try.”
“Hey, Miss Su, don’t!” Yu Qin immediately stopped. “This isn’t the stone gambling at your place. It’s different.”
Yu Shijin returned to the table. Seeing the four of them talking, he couldn’t help but ask, “What are you talking about?”
Su Huiqing glanced sideways. “They said I am going to gamble.”
“We were joking with Miss Su!” Yu Qin immediately stood aside. “We didn’t encourage Miss Su to gamble!”
“No, I just wanted to give it a try.” Su Huiqing touched the jade. “Isn’t your birthday coming up soon? I am prepared to bet the number-one stone on you. How about it?”
Yu Shijin was stunned for a moment. His eyes gradually softened before he smiled. “Alright.”
At this moment, Su Huiqing received a call. It was from Apollo. This time, she didn’t reject it. She walked not far away and picked it up.
The three of them were not curious who called Su Huiqing. After all, in their eyes, Su Huiqing was a very ordinary person.
Yu Shijin also went upstairs to get a jacket.
The three young men stood there and looked at one another. They could see helplessness and confusion in each other’s eyes.
“Is Young Master turning dumb this time?” Yu Qin whispered, “He actually let Miss Su gamble. It’s not like he doesn’t know that the stone gambling here is different from Green City. When the time comes, he won’t be able to gamble anything. What will others think of Miss Su? Young Master, that scumbag!”
“If you have the ability, why don’t you say it in front of him?” Yu Yan sneered.
Yu Qin opened her mouth and finally said, “Damn…”
“But it’s true. This is our first time attending a stone gambling event. If Miss Su really insists on cutting the stone…” Yu Yan sighed.
“Young Master is so happy now. He definitely won’t listen to me when I’m with him. He will definitely treat a rotten stone that Miss Su gave him as a treasure!” Yu Qin added. “Ahhh, Miss Su will definitely be surrounded by people. What if she can’t dissect a stone? Will she lose face overseas?”
Yu Qin thought about it and still felt that it was impossible. “I have to give Miss Su a lesson on this.”
“There’s no use in science anymore.” Yu Han sat at the side. Upon hearing this, he raised his head coldly. “Do you know who won first place last year?”
Yu Qin frowned. She didn’t understand.
Yu Yan had some understanding. “Her name is Su Xiao. She is from a second-rate family. However, she is very good at dissecting stones. She got a level eight stone last year and a level eight stone the year before.”
“That powerful?” Yu Qin widened her eyes. “Two years?”
Yu Yan continued, “Exactly. Do you know that she also has the surname Su? Not only did she have the same family name, but she’s also about the same age as Miss Su. Do you know what will happen when the time comes? Su Xiao has a bunch of level five stones beside her while our Miss Su is useless. This scene, don’t you think it’s awkward?”
Yu Qin said softly, “It seems… a little awkward?”
“That’s right. Su Xiao is the internally-decided champion this year.” Yu Han glanced at Yu Qin. “It’s fine at other times, but she just had to bump into Miss Su.”
“Don’t look down on Miss Su!” Yu Qin sneered. “What if you see a ghost and go blind?!”
“What the hell?” Su Huiqing walked in with her phone and raised her brows.
