Chapter 464: Chapter 506: Zhou Shuanghu’s Fury
With an uneasy mind, the group returned to the hotel.
As soon as they arrived at the hotel, Song Yi pulled Long Xiaoshan into her room.
After closing the door, Song Yi hastily said, “Long Xiaoshan, what’s going on? Didn’t you say that all the stones you picked this time were glass types? How did it turn out to be a pile of junk? Tell me honestly, were you bluffing last time at Seajade Pavilion?”
“Sister Song Yi, why are you so nervous?” Long Xiaoshan said with a smile.
“How can I not be nervous? It wasn’t easy for me to connect with Zhou Shuanghu, and now that we’re here in Myanmar, before I left, I had agreements with several jade merchants. I said that this time, with you, the jade gambling god, we would definitely bring back a lot of top-grade jade, and I’ve signed business contracts with them. If we don’t have the jade by then, they’ll sue me.”
Long Xiaoshan smiled and said nothing.
“You’re still smiling. If you aren’t capable, you should’ve told me early on so I could make other plans. Even if it means paying a high price, I’d have to buy a batch from Zhou Shuanghu,” Song Yi said, annoyed.
Long Xiaoshan took out a piece of jade from his pocket and shook it in front of Song Yi.
Song Yi’s breath stopped instantly.
She snatched the piece of jade from Long Xiaoshan’s hand. Although it wasn’t large, it made her chest heave with excitement.
“Emerald Green!”
That rich green colour seemed as if it would melt into oil and drip from her hands.
Even though it was only a small piece, less than ten centimeters long and five centimeters wide, just this piece of Emerald Green had already made back more than ten times the money spent on the raw stones.
And with such a level of jade, it was priceless and exceedingly rare, fully worthy of being the centerpiece of a store.
“Long Xiaoshan, I love you to death!”
After confirming the piece was Emerald Green, an excited Song Yi hugged Long Xiaoshan and gave him a big kiss.
“Wow, Sister Song Yi, I love you too!”
Long Xiaoshan also hugged Song Yi with an excited face, opened his mouth wide, ready for a fervent kiss, which scared Song Yi pale. She hurriedly blocked Long Xiaoshan’s mouth with her hand, while the other hand hit Long Xiaoshan hard on the head.
Long Xiaoshan quickly let go of her, holding his head with a grievance, “Why did you hit me?”
“What were you trying to do just now, taking advantage of me?” Song Yi said, both embarrassed and angry.
“Wasn’t it you who took advantage of me first? You even said you loved me. So you’re allowed to kiss me, but I’m not allowed to kiss you?” Long Xiaoshan argued.
“That was, that was an adjective, not really saying I love you… ugh, did I really kiss you just now?” Song Yi rubbed her mouth vigorously, quickly heading towards the bathroom, “I need to brush my teeth first.”
Long Xiaoshan’s expression darkened as he muttered, “My goodness!”
After their playful exchange, Song Yi said, “Tell me, Xiaoshan, did you really only get one piece of Emerald Green from all those raw stones, with no other superior grade jades?”
She had become more suspicious since this guy even managed to get hold of Emerald Green.
Long Xiaoshan had picked out two truckloads of raw stones, and with his expertise, it didn’t seem right.
“Sister Song Yi, of course there isn’t only this one piece, but what do you think would happen if I really took out those jades and Zhou Shuanghu saw them?” Long Xiaoshan asked.
Song Yi frowned; she knew all too well that Zhou Shuanghu was the type to not get up early without a profit. Anyone doing business on the border was someone who would eat people without spitting out the bones.
Don’t be fooled by Zhou Shuanghu’s current courtesy and enthusiasm, treating them as if they were close partners, Song Yi was well aware that Zhou Shuanghu had ulterior motives.
If Zhou Shuanghu found out that Long Xiaoshan had gotten a pile of glass varieties, even the Emerald Green, or knew that Long Xiaoshan could tell with absolute certainty the presence of jade in the raw stone.
It’s likely he would sabotage him in secret right away.
Although she, Song Yi, was beautiful, in the eyes of someone like Zhou Shuanghu, she definitely couldn’t compare to the profits of high-end jade.
“I understand, you’ve hidden all those jades away, haven’t you?” Song Yi’s eyes lit up as she spoke.
Xiaoshan nodded.
“Where did you hide them? It’s not at the stone processing site, is it? Is it safe?” Song Yi asked worriedly.
“Can’t you trust me when I do things? Don’t worry, the jade will absolutely not be lost. When we get back to the country, I’ll give you your share,” Long Xiaoshan said confidently.
Song Yi looked deeply at Long Xiaoshan. Although this lad often seemed slick and unreliable, no one knew better than she just how dependable Long Xiaoshan was. He was almost omnipotent.
Exorcising ghosts, betting on stones, authenticating antiques, and his impressive physical skills.
He was by far the most outstanding man she, Song Yi, had ever met.
Even though she wouldn’t admit it openly, deep down she was very clear about this, otherwise, she would not have begged Long Xiaoshan to accompany her to Myanmar, and except for Long Xiaoshan, she didn’t bring anyone else, which perhaps subconsciously meant that she felt safe with Long Xiaoshan there.
So if Long Xiaoshan said he had hidden them well, then they were certainly well hidden.
“Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll leave it be. But when we get to Pagan, we still have to be cautious of Zhou Shuanghu and not let him know your abilities,” Song Yi said.
In another room.
Zhou Shuanghu and his bodyguard Luo Fei said, “Have you found out yet? Does Song Yi really have such a cousin?”
“We’ve contacted an intelligence trafficking organization back home, and they said Song Yi has no such relative.”
“That is to say this guy has been deceiving me.” Zhou Shuanghu’s expression darkened.
“That seems to be the case, but even if he’s not a relative, the fact that Song Yi brought him all by himself shows she trusts him a great deal.”
“Damn it, he dares to deceive me, Zhou Shuanghu? He must be tired of living.”
Zhou Shuanghu’s chubby face revealed an aura of killing as he was not only annoyed that Long Xiaoshan lied about being Song Yi’s cousin but also thought of how close Long Xiaoshan and Song Yi had been along the way, with Song Yi even sleeping in Long Xiaoshan’s arms. This wasn’t a cousin, but a ‘lover cousin’ for sure.
He’d been carefully paving the way for Song Yi, and yet here she was, being all intimate with a ‘lover cousin’ right under his nose.
He, Zhou Shuanghu, couldn’t stand it. It was as if they were making a fool of the Jade King himself.
“President Zhou, do you want us to take control of them now?” Luo Fei spoke in a deep voice.
Zhou Shuanghu waved his hand and said, “No rush, he dares to play me, Zhou Shuanghu? It won’t be that cheap for him. Aren’t they looking to buy jade? I’ll contact Sangdu first and set a trap. I’ll have to make that woman go broke, and then, I’ll kill the young chap.”
They stayed in Mitzina for a day.
The next day, Zhou Shuanghu gathered everyone and said, “President Song, I’ve managed to get the connections set up. Today we can enter Pagan, which is the real jade paradise. 95% of the world’s jade comes from the Pagan jade mines. The one we’re dealing with this time is Sangdu, the Jade King of Pagan. He’s a real big shot there, controlling three superior grade mines, producing hundreds of tons of jade a year. I’ve put a lot of effort into becoming his business partner.”
