The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 212: That One Doesn’t Count, I Picked It

The people around weren’t optimistic either. Qiao Qiqi didn’t let it get to her and said, "Let’s give it a try, it’s not like I’m not paying!"

The craftsman saw her determination and made another cut, but still nothing.

Rong Nian Nian laughed out loud, "I told you it’s a waste of effort, you don’t have the luck to find anything good! That white stone is good enough!"

The people around agreed, thinking Qiao Qiqi couldn’t possibly have such good luck.

"Wait a minute! Let’s make another cut! I think I see purple!" The craftsman touched the cut and looked serious.

Everyone stopped their discussions and stared nervously at the stone. Rong Nian Nian’s expression changed, "I think you must be seeing things because of your age!"

"Rong Nian Nian, shut up, there’s definitely purple!" Rong Yuan reprimanded the outspoken young girl displeasedly.

With another cut, a large area of purple appeared, and everyone gasped in surprise—it’s really violet!

Those who deal with jade know that purple might not be as valuable as Imperial Jade, but a good quality purple piece isn’t much less in price, especially with this jade’s excellent texture.

"Ha~ it’s just a purple piece! I found green before!" Rong Nian Nian said defiantly.

"Miss, you can’t compare! I’ve never seen such a large piece of purple before, its value is immeasurable."

Qiao Jiezhe was stunned, staring in disbelief at the large purple area. Qiao Qiqi held his hand excitedly and said, "Brother, you’re really lucky! You’ve found a treasure!"

"Re... really? I’m not dreaming, am I?"

"Of course not, brother, you really picked an excellent piece of jade!"

Rong Nian Nian felt comforted only after hearing Qiao Qiqi say that. So it was the fool Qiao Jiezhe who picked it, as long as it wasn’t Qiao Qiqi who picked it, she wouldn’t acknowledge any girl having better luck than her!

"Next one!" Rong Nian Nian commanded resentfully, moving on to the next stone.

The jade she cut next was all of average quality, no huge losses but also no exceptional finds.

When Qiao Qiqi’s sixth piece revealed Imperial Jade, the entire venue burst into excitement!

This time, many came over to make offers, and Rong Nian Nian watched the stone with an ugly expression, "Wait, isn’t this the piece of raw material I picked?" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Yeah, this is the one you helped me choose! I really don’t know how to thank Miss Rong for helping me pick Imperial Jade!" Qiao Qiqi smiled at the wide-eyed girl opposite.

Rong Nian Nian’s face was flushed green with anger, "No way, this can’t count, I picked it, so it can’t count for you!"

"You picked it, but I paid for it! I must thank Miss Rong again for lending me her good luck!" Qiao Qiqi smiled even sweeter.

Rong Nian Nian was almost furious enough to spit blood; this was premium Imperial Jade she had unknowingly handed over to Qiao Qiqi!

She wanted to take it back, but even though she picked it, the money was certainly paid by the Qiao siblings!

She was so regretful she could scream.

The same frustration was shared by the seller who parted with this raw material, along with some others who kept an eye on it secretly.

Originally, those people thought Qiao Qiqi had picked it, which would mean she wasn’t as clueless about jade-gambling as she seemed!

When it was proven that it was chosen by the famous "lucky koi" Miss Rong, it confirmed that Qiao Qiqi indeed just got lucky.

Qiao Jiezhe was also overwhelmed with excitement, holding his sister’s hand tightly!

Today was so exhilarating, his heart could barely take it, but it was undeniably thrilling, hahaha!
