It’s Not Easy to Enter the First Research Institute, I Hope You Won’t Regret It

When they each chose three stones and were brushing past each other, Ji Hongyuan said to the girl, “It’s not easy to enter the First Research Institute. I hope you won’t regret it.”

Qiao Nian thought that he was going to say something important. She turned around and returned casually, “Same here!”

They parted on bad terms.

Ji Hongyuan walked away with a livid expression.

…

Stone gambling was a unique game in the Independent Continent.

Luck was very important.

In addition, it depended on the viciousness of the people who played stone gambling games!

Ji Hongyuan had lived for so long. He believed that his skill in stone gambling would definitely not lose to a young woman’s.

He was very confident in the three stones he chose. He was just waiting for Qiao Nian to finish choosing hers.

Qiao Nian quickly finished choosing her stones. Since both sides had chosen their stones, the next step was for professionals to cut them open in public to see what material was inside.

Qin Si said that he was not nervous, but his heart still tightened. He turned around nervously and asked Ye Wangchuan, “Master Wang, do you think Sister Qiao can do it?”

“Huh?” Ye Wangchuan ignored him. He was constantly paying attention to the commotion on the stage.

Soon, the underground auction house called in two professionals to deal with the first stone at the same time.

The first was the washing.

The stone Qiao Nian chose was relatively small. It was not as big as Ji Hongyuan’s. Furthermore, it was uneven on the outside and looked very ordinary.

After washing the stones, it was time to polish them along the lines.

This was the first stone Qiao Nian and Ji Hongyuan had chosen. Everyone was eager to see the results.

Therefore, almost no one in the underground auction house spoke. They were all focused on the professionals on the stage.

Soon, the two stones were polished.

Ji Hongyuan’s stone vaguely revealed a bright yellow texture. It was obvious that there was material inside.

As for Qiao Nian’s stone, it was still green after being polished. It was obvious that there was not much hope.

Sure enough, two stones were cut out.

Ji Hongyuan’s stone revealed a jade. Qiao Nian’s stone did not have anything. It was still stone inside! They finished cutting the first stone.

Ji Hongyuan’s tense face relaxed slightly by an inch. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile. He glanced at the unruly girl not far away. He couldn’t breathe and was almost angered.

Next was the second stone.

Under everyone’s gaze, the second stone was cut.

Ji Hongyuan’s stone had some scraps. The material was not good, but it was better than nothing.

Qiao Nian’s stone was still a rock.

…

This time, the underground auction house exploded.

“The second one is still a rock.”

“Does she know how to gamble on stones? She can’t be messing around, right?”

“Do you think the third stone will still contain jade?”

Two pieces in a row were just stones. Qin Si was not sure, and he didn’t know what to say. His back tensed nervously and he secretly clenched his hands. He stood there and waited for the results of the third stone cutting.

If the result of the third stone was the same, Qiao Nian would definitely lose.

Even if a jade came out of the third stone, Ji Hongyuan had already gotten one previously. She might not win.

Qiao Nian was in a bad situation.

However, Ji Hongyuan was already almost certain of his victory.

He was very relaxed at this moment, waiting for the third stone to be opened.
