Chapter 289: Chapter 289: I’ll go tell my brother right away
Xiao Ling and Lin Fei shook hands tightly.
Xiao Ling recalled how he originally saw Lin Fei as an enemy, and their fierce battles on the court, until Lin Fei extended a helping hand during his dire mont, turning enemies into friends.
And tonight, Lin Fei helped him with jade gambling, yielding profits multiple tis over, and finally the two beca brothers.
Xiao Ling was a bit emotional inside.
He felt fortunate to know Lin Fei, otherwise, it would have been impossible to obtain so many high-grade jade stones in one night.
Instantly resolving the urgent needs of the Xiao family’s jewelry company.
Therefore, he was very grateful to Lin Fei.
“Lin Fei, I’ll never compete with you for Yuxi again, and I can tell she likes you. I was just being self-indulgent before.” Xiao Ling said sincerely to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei was stunned, then reacted and said: “Xiao Ling, Yuxi and I are really not what you think, we’re just classmates.”
Of course, Lin Fei also thought about their employer relationship.
But Xiao Ling laughed: “Lin Fei, we’re brothers now, no need to beat around the bush, I know you’re saying this to spare my feelings.
But you don’t need to worry about at all, really, I’ve already co to terms with it. Besides Yuxi, there are other girls.”
Lin Fei: …
Seeing Lin Fei not speaking, Xiao Ling thought he hit Lin Fei’s hidden thoughts, laughed twice: “Haha, Lin Fei, do you think I’m amazing for saying what you’re thinking?”
Lin Fei actually wanted to say it wasn’t amazing at all, but he knew even if he insisted he and Yuxi were just classmates, Xiao Ling wouldn’t believe it.
Not to ntion that night, he and Yuxi also had…
So, Lin Fei said no more.
“Lin Fei, I’m going to make arrangents to have the jade stones we bought sent quickly to the jewelry factory for processing to et the client’s delivery.” At this ti, Xiao Ling rembered sothing important and said to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei nodded.
Lin Fei and Xiao Ling returned to wait not far from Zhang Ruoxi, Li Ke, and Li Qing.
Li Qing said to Lin Fei and Xiao Ling: “Brother Fei, Young Master Xiao, you seed to be talking happily earlier, what were you discussing?”
Xiao Ling said: “Lin Fei and I have beco good brothers.”
Li Qing was a bit down and said: “Then Young Master Xiao, if you two beca good brothers, does that an I’m also one of your good brothers?”
Xiao Ling patted Li Qing’s shoulder and said: “You’re definitely one of our brothers.”
Only then did Li Qing reveal a smile: “With your words, Young Master Xiao, I’m relieved.”
At this mont, Xiao Ling turned to Lin Fei and said: “Lin Fei, with the many good jade pieces we purchased, I’ll make so pendants, jade pendants, pearl chains for you to give to your female friends.”
As these words left Xiao Ling’s mouth, a blush appeared on the faces of Zhang Ruoxi and Li Ke standing beside Lin Fei, and their hearts inexplicably sped up.
For so reason, they both hoped Lin Fei would gift them the pendants, jade pendants, and pearl chains that girls love.
It wasn’t that these jade pieces were extrely precious, but that they were gifts from Lin Fei to them.
Lin Fei also rembered that he indeed had quite a few female friends, Li Ruyan, Yuxi, Zhang Ruoxi, Li Ke, Wang Yixin, and others.
So, Lin Fei said to Xiao Ling: “I’ll leave it to you then, Xiao Ling.”
Xiao Ling said: “No need to be polite, we’re brothers now.”
Then he gave Lin Fei a pat on the shoulder and went on his way.
Lin Fei then said to Li Qing, Zhang Ruoxi, and Li Ke: “Let’s just look around!”
Then the four of them walked towards a stall, even though Lin Fei still had two million in his card, he had no desire to gamble on stones.
Because Lin Fei and Xiao Ling had already visited each stall, essentially buying the most valuable rough stones.
So Lin Fei wasn’t interested in purchasing the remaining less high-grade jade roughs.
He decided to keep the two million for the antique auction, to see if there were any good antique paintings and calligraphy.
The stall Lin Fei reached at this mont was the largest stall at the jade gambling event, with nearly a hundred rough stones.
Lin Fei and Xiao Ling had already gambled up ten pieces of old mine ice-grade good materials from here.
Lin Fei had previously used his X-ray vision to see that seventy percent of the rough stones at this stall contained green jade, such as hibiscus, gold thread, and violet types, with significant gambling potential and mid-to-high-grade quality.
Of course, there were also low-end bean jade types.
Since Lin Fei helped Xiao Ling select ten pieces of upper-grade ice and water jade from this stall in one go, it had attracted the most people.
Among them were Sun Hao, Liu Siming, Liu Feng, Qin Yunyue, Xie Wenbo, Qin Zimo, Xie Yiting, and Jiangling, all at the sa stall.
When Lin Fei arrived, Qin Yunyue and Jiangling were in a fierce bidding war over a several hundred-kilogram yellow pear skin rough stone.
The animosity between these two was already established at a birthday party, and now both had taken a liking to the sa rough stone, making all suppressed anger erupt over it.
The two locked eyes, refusing to yield, driving the originally twenty-million-priced rough stone in their bidding madness to fifty million, leaving everyone around stunned.
This kind of bidding race seed utterly insane to everyone watching.
Moreover, if they lost in the gamble, the losses could be as bottomless as a pit.
Qin Zimo and Xie Yiting both saw that Qin Yunyue and Jiangling had lost their rationality due to personal grudges, and if the bidding continued, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Qin Zimo felt worried for her brother and happened to see Lin Fei, who had just arrived at the stall, recalling how he and Xiao Ling had previously gambled up many good stones.
She walked over to Lin Fei.
Seeing Qin Zimo approached, Lin Fei guessed she might want his help to gamble on stones for her brother.
“Lin Fei, can we talk privately?” Qin Zimo softly asked as she reached Lin Fei.
Zhang Ruoxi and Li Ke looked at Qin Zimo curiously, wondering what she wanted to discuss with Lin Fei.
Lin Fei didn’t refuse and nodded.
Then he and Qin Zimo stepped aside, away from the others.
Lin Fei asked Qin Zimo: “Zimo, what do you want to talk about?”
Looking at her brother still bidding with Jiangling, Qin Zimo asked Lin Fei worriedly: “Lin Fei, with your winning streak tonight, I want to ask, can this stone my brother and Jiangling are bidding on really turn a profit?”
Lin Fei replied: “To be honest, it can’t. Tell your brother to stop bidding imdiately, or the Qin family will end up throwing away tens of millions.”
Lin Fei was telling the truth, having used his X-ray vision to see that the stone Qin Yunyue and Jiangling had raised to fifty million contained only a palm-sized worthless bean jade inside.
Lin Fei helped Qin Yunyue for three reasons: one, for Qin Zimo’s sake; two, Qin Yunyue had kindly reminded him about the VIP card issue at the birthday party; three, he disliked Jiangling, who dismissed Huadu University’s basketball team and boasted about defeating them.
Lin Fei thought for a mont and then added for Qin Zimo: “Zimo, tell your brother to bid on the third piece of old elephant skin rough stone from the left in front of him, it’s worth gambling on.”
Qin Zimo nodded excitedly and said: “I’ll go tell my brother imdiately…”
