Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress - Chapter 589
Chapter 589: What Kind of Eyes did He Have?
The Shen Family was the overlord of a region overseas and occupied the land in the north.
For this stone gambling event, the Shen Family specially opened the Shen Family’s largest stone gambling den. Those who came had to show their name card before they could enter.
Shen Yun’s study room…
Shen Mu’s face was serious as he passed a secret thumb drive to Shen Yun. “Young Master, I found out something. I realized… that Su Huiqing might really be problematic.”
Shen Yun had already expected this.
He casually took the thumb drive and started to browse through it on his computer. At first, he looked fine, but when he saw the end, he was shocked.
This made Shen Mu look sideways. This young master of his had always been smart. Because of his outstanding intelligence, almost everything was within his control. It was rare to see him show such a shocked expression because of something.
Shen Yun turned off the computer and said in a low voice, “Go find Su Huiqing.”
…
Su Huiqing followed Yu Shijin out of the car. Seeing the grand scene of the Shen Family and the people passing by, she couldn’t help but look at Yu Qin. She said faintly, “Is everyone from overseas here?”
“That’s right,” Yu Qin also replied faintly.
“If I can’t even dissect a rock, how embarrassing would that be?” Su Huiqing sighed. She was a little afraid that the jade pendant would fail so she flipped through the books on stone gambling many times. She was initially full of confidence.
However, after reading those books, she realized that the knowledge of stone gambling was not something that one could learn just by reading books. One still needed experience and practice.
Thus, almost all the stone gambling masters were very old. When Su Xiao appeared, everyone was shocked because Su Xiao was too young compared to those masters.
Su Huiqing continued to sigh. She finally understood why Hua Guangxuan, Yu Qin, and the rest kept comforting her.
Yu Qin glanced at Su Huiqing and said in a low voice, “Actually, Miss Su, you don’t have to participate. Let’s just watch the show.”
“No, I already promised Brother Yu.” Su Huiqing touched her chin and felt that the jade pendant had to work harder.
Yu Qin and the rest sighed helplessly.
Yu Shijin brought Su Huiqing into the Shen Residences. The guard at the door took the invitation from Yu Shijin. Upon seeing the sign on the door, his expression changed, and he immediately stood respectfully. “Master Yu, please come in.”
It attracted the attention of countless people. There were too few people who knew Yu Shijin here. Most of them were shocked by who exactly was this person to make the Shen Family so respectful.
Yu Shijin looked straight ahead and led Su Huiqing in.
His tall, black figure exuded a chilly aura, causing those who stole glances to shiver.
“Master Yu.” At this moment, the Shen Family butler came over respectfully. “Our Old Master knows that Master Yu is here. He invited Master Yu over to discuss something.”
Yu Shijin frowned and didn’t answer. He just stopped and glanced at Su Huiqing, asking for her opinion.
This scene shocked Butler Shen. He glanced at Su Huiqing again and suddenly felt that she looked familiar.
“Go ahead.” Su Huiqing let go of him and smiled at him. “I’ll just stroll around.”
“Alright, I’ll be right back.” Yu Shijin glanced at her before following Butler Shen to the backyard.
Seeing that Yu Shijin had left, Hua Guangxuan took two steps forward. “Sister-in-law, let me show you around. There are quite a number of people here today. I came here once last year and am more familiar with this place than anyone else.”
There were many people here, and he was afraid that someone would be blind and offend Su Huiqing. Although he was not as powerful as Su Huiqing, he was more respected than her.
Meanwhile, the Murong Family arrived.
Murong Bing followed beside Murong Bai. “Brother, I really didn’t expect you to come here.”
“I’m just looking for someone,” Murong Bai explained mildly.
Murong Bing rubbed his nose and didn’t ask who her brother was looking for. He just said, “It’s okay, look for that person. I’ll go to the stone gambling den with Xiao Xiao in advance to look at the stones. You can go there directly after you find who you are looking for.”
Murong Bai nodded.
Murong Bing had always been afraid of this brother of his, so after receiving Murong Bai’s approval, he ran faster than a rabbit. However, before he left, he saw a group of figures.
They were led by Su Huiqing and Hua Guangxuan.
The two of them were chatting and laughing. It was obvious that they were very familiar with each other.
Murong Bing paused.
Su Xiao also looked in his direction. When she saw Su Huiqing, she frowned.
The classmate beside Su Xiao saw her gaze and knew that Su Xiao didn’t like Su Huiqing. She said, “Xiaoxiao, what kind of taste do you think Young Master Hua has? He actually chatted so happily with such a person?”
She didn’t see Murong Bai’s face turn cold the moment she finished her sentence.
Apart from Murong Bing, no one knew that Su Huiqing knew Murong Bai. Su Xiao’s classmate naturally didn’t know either. When she saw Murong Bai’s gaze, she thought that he was interested in Su Huiqing and immediately explained it to Murong Bai excitedly.
If Young Master Murong saw her in a different light, she would have to take fewer detours.
“Master, you might not know, but this Su Huiqing is a new student of our school this year, and she is also an outer sect disciple of the Su Family. Unfortunately, this person is arrogant and weak. She thinks that she is very impressive just because she is from the First School. She actually went to provoke the Fu Family. Do you know how ridiculous she is? She actually wanted to fight to the death with the law-enforcement team, and in the end, she was locked up by them. However, she is also lucky to have curried favor with the Liu Family Head. Otherwise, how could she have come out alive?” She didn’t see Murong Bai’s frozen expression and continued to mock. “Actually, it’s not hard to understand. She came from the sea. In the past, she couldn’t come into contact with our level at all. As such, she can compete with anyone.”
