Picking Up a Gorgeous CEO for a Wife

314: Chapter 0314: One Year Ago 314: Chapter 0314: One Year Ago “There, that’s a good boy.” Qin Yu grinned and casually made his way toward the restaurant’s entrance.

It wasn’t until Qin Yu walked out through the dining hall’s entrance that the group snapped out of their trance.

Qu Qicong’s minor displeasure with Qin Yu vanished.

A man who declines to let women worry on his behalf is a man of responsibility.

How could such a man be frivolous?

“Liu Tian, you know Qin Yu the best.

Can he really check all those one hundred thousand stones in half an hour?” Yu QinZhi looked puzzled.

“I’m not sure, but we’ll find out if we go look,” Liu Tian replied, visibly confused, feeling once again that he might not know Qin Yu as well as he thought.

“Right!

Let’s go have a look!” The five reached a consensus and headed together toward the restaurant’s entrance.

…

Feng Yuqiong had an office in the raw stone trading hall, which welcomed its owner only once a month, yet it was spotless, a clear sign that Feng Guanghui arranged for it to be cleaned daily.

Feng Yuqiong sat quietly in her office, gazing through the one-way glass at the scene outside.

The sudden return of Qin Yu to Luo City had left her feeling downcast.

She had thought they would be like two lines crossing paths; once past the intersection, they would drift apart.

Unexpectedly, she encountered Qin Yu again at Feng’s Manor!

Scenes of her causing trouble for Qin Yu uncontrollably surfaced in Feng Yuqiong’s mind, and a mischievous smile crept over her lips.

If that kid knew she was the one sabotaging his efforts, she believed he would definitely be hopping mad, wouldn’t he?

Did the Second Miss just laugh sincerely?

Tang Xiao was utterly astonished!

Having served the Second Miss for many years, he had never seen her laugh sincerely!

Was it because of that kid just now?

Tang Xiao’s heart felt as if it were being scratched by a cat’s paws.

“Second Miss, what do you think of that kid?”

Tang Xiao’s words jolted Feng Yuqiong out of her thoughts, and the smile slowly faded from her lips: “He’s an interesting kid.

Eh?

What is he doing now?”

“Hmm?” Tang Xiao followed Feng Yuqiong’s gaze.

They saw Qin Yu rush into Hall One, where he stood at the entrance with his eyes closed for two seconds, then hurriedly ran toward Hall Two.

Similarly, Qin Yu stood at the entrance of Hall Two with his eyes closed for two seconds.

Soon, Qin Yu exited Hall Two and quickly ran toward Hall Three.

“What… what is this kid doing?” Tang Xiao admitted that he couldn’t understand Qin Yu’s actions.

For some reason, a scene from long ago suddenly surfaced in Feng Yuqiong’s mind.

Every month, Feng Yuqiong went home.

At that time, the Dragon King asked why she was returning home.

She honestly told the Dragon King that she went home to host and participate in the stone gambling competition.

When the Dragon King heard the words “stone gambling,” he chuckled and told Feng Yuqiong that he was also adept at stone gambling.

Back then, Feng Yuqiong didn’t believe it.

The Dragon King, on a whim, followed her to Feng’s Manor and then showed her what a true stone gambling master was!

The Dragon King merely stood at the doors of all the halls for a second before selecting ten stones.

As a result, all ten stones significantly increased in value!

Even the least valuable stone yielded ice-type material!

Later, the Dragon King told Feng Yuqiong that he wasn’t truly adept at stone gambling, explaining that once someone’s cultivation reached the Heavenly Human Realm, they could sense the energy fluctuation of the stones, making stone gambling trivial for a high-level Celestial master.

“Do you remember the incident that occurred here a year ago?” Feng Yuqiong’s eyes sparkled, her interest in Qin Yu deepening.

“A year ago?

Also here?” Tang Xiao was taken aback, his face quickly showing a frightened expression, “Miss, you mean… impossible!”

“Just try looking at him the way you look at the Dragon King,” Feng Yuqiong said with a smile.
