Ding Hao was a little confused. He did not understand what Gu Qingchen meant.
One had to know that the price of this piece of purple jade might not be lower than that of the imperial green jade. For someone like him who desperately needed the purple jade, he would buy it no matter how much he spent.
And Gu Qingchen actually said that she would give it to him as a gift, a gift of friendship.
This sentence sounded light and airy. This was a piece of purple jade that was worth a lot of money. It was not an ordinary item that could be given away just like that.
Gu Qingchen had just given away a piece of purple jade. She was too generous.
But aside from being shocked, Ding Hao was more grateful.
As long as he had this piece of purple jade, he could finish his job. Although he did not know if it could satisfy Deng Gong’s needs, it was still better than nothing.
“This… I can’t accept it. Why don’t Ms. Gu give me a price and I’ll buy this purple jade?”
Ding Hao always felt that he was taking advantage of Gu Qingchen. If he accepted this favor, he really did not know how to repay it in the future.
Gu Qingchen only shook her head, “This purple jade of mine will only be given away, not sold. The meaning behind this is different. I personally like purple jade and I’m not short of money, so I won’t sell it. But I can give you as a gift. I think you should understand the meaning behind this.”
Ding Hao completely understood this time. After thinking for a while, he finally accepted Gu Qingchen’s purple jade.
“Okay. Ms. Gu, you are a straightforward person. I am not a dilatory person. I, Ding Hao, will remember this purple jade as a favor I owe you.”
Gu Qingchen curled her lips into a smile and only said, “Mr. Ding, you’re too kind. I’ve already bought some raw stones. Although I won against Shen Dongyang, Jiang Zhong still has so many people helping him. We don’t know how much money he has prepared to buy raw stones. I think it’s better for Mr. Ding to focus on picking raw stone.”
After all, Jiang Zhong and Ding Hao had a bigger competition. Whoever lost would not be able to survive in the jade business, and Gu Qingchen was still concerned about Jiang Zhong’s capability.
Today’s competition with Shen Dongyang was only the appetizer. The main event was still to come.
Ding Hao was also anxious after being reminded by Gu Qingchen. That’s right, there was no rush for Elder Deng matter at the moment.
And the competition with Jiang Zhong was the most important thing at the moment. It concerned his family and career, so he could not let down his guard.
Today, it was all thanks to Gu Qingchen that Shen Dongyang was kicked out. One less person on Jiang Zhong’s side, and Ding Hao’s chances of winning would be one point higher.
If it was before, Ding Hao might not have had the confidence to win the competition. But today, he saw that Gu Qingchen had hit the jackpot with her three raw stones, and they were all excellent jadeites. He was instantly filled with confidence.
Jiang Zhong, just wait and see.
After this interlude, the three of them started to buy raw stones again. Gu Qingchen had also spent a long time cutting the raw stone. A day was almost up, and there were still so many raw stones that she had not seen. She needed to speed up.
On the other side, Shen Dongyang’s two followers finally found Jiang Zhong and told him everything that had happened here.
Jiang Zhong was furious when he heard this.
However, he was furious that Shen Dongyang, whom he had poached from Ding Hao at a high price, had lost to a brat who was still wet behind the ears!
He had also lost the 500,000 dollars that he had given Shen Dongyang. This time, he had really lost both his wife and his soldiers.
Jiang Zhong even suspected that Shen Dongyang had pretended to come over and was actually secretly helping Ding Hao. Otherwise, how could he have lost to Gu Qingchen.
“Alright, I got it. If I find out that Shen Dongyang is playing tricks on me, I’ll chop off his hands!”
This day was a busy day.
Gu Qingchen had really experienced the feeling of buying raw stones until her hands went soft. When she returned to the hotel, she wanted to directly lie down on the bed and sleep.
However, when they returned to the hotel, they were told by the hotel staff that someone invited Gu Qingchen to a restaurant for dinner. Someone booked the whole hotel restaurant for tonight.
Gu Qingchen thought for a moment and roughly knew who it was.
However, she didn’t go. She had already eaten on the way back. Now she just wanted to rest. After all, she would feel tired after using her superpower too much.
Gu Yuanchuan was a little nervous. He didn’t expect that someone would treat his daughter to a meal two days after he and his daughter arrived.
Who invited her daughter? He was worried about his daughter’s safety.
“I’m sorry, we’ve already had dinner. No matter who it is, we’re tired today. We won’t go. You should go and tell them.”
Gu Yuanchuan’s attitude was very tough. After saying that, he took his daughter back to the villa.
The hotel staff had no choice but to brace themselves and go to the restaurant. At the restaurant, Wang Sisi and Wang Qingtian were still sitting there waiting. In the end, they did not see Gu Qingchen. Instead, the staff came back to them.
Hearing that Gu Qingchen did not come and did not give Wang Qingtian any face, Wang Qingtian was a little unhappy.
“Humph, she’s wearing a high hat now. I pushed so many social events and booked the entire restaurant in the hotel. I sat here and waited for her for more than an hour. However, she didn’t show respect to me and rejected my invitation!”
The hotel staff trembled. It was all because Wang Qingtian was the main shareholder of the hotel.
Who was Wang Qingtian?
He was the CEO of the largest entertainment company in the country. There were countless artists under the company, and he was definitely a celebrity.
Even those big-name A-list celebrities would greet Wang Qingtian with a smile when they saw him, not daring to offend him at all.
And Gu Qingchen actually did not give him face. This made Wang Qingtian, who was used to being high and mighty, very angry.
However, he had never thought that those celebrities were afraid of him because he could decide the future of those celebrities. Gu Qingchen was not a celebrity, and she did not want to be famous. She was not Wang Qingtian’s employee, so why should she be afraid of him?
“Go and get her for me now. Otherwise, just kick them out.”
The hotel was his. He could do whatever he wanted.
Wang Sisi listened from the side and immediately shouted at Wang Qingtian, “Dad, what are you doing! Gu Qingchen is my savior. If you want to chase my savior out, then I won’t stay here anymore. You can kick me out too!”
Wang Qingtian adored his daughter very much. When he saw that his daughter was angry, his attitude immediately softened, “Sisi, be good. I was wrong, I was wrong. I won’t kick them out anymore. Don’t be angry. Didn’t I set up a banquet to treat her to a meal just to thank her? It’s fine. She didn’t come today. We can thank her another day. “Don’t be angry. It’s not good for your condition.”
That night, Gu Qingchen took a shower. There was a knock on her room door. Although they were in the same villa, each room was independent.
Gu Qingchen thought it was her father. When she opened the door, she realized it was Wang Sisi from yesterday.
Wang Sisi saw Gu Qingchen and smiled widely.
“Hello, benefactor. My name is Wang Sisi.”
Wang Sisi’s warm attitude was completely different from her father’s.
“Miss Wang, it’s so late. Why are you looking for me?”
