Chapter 34.1
Gu Yuanzhao was totally unconcerned by the screams and shouts of the countless people below the stage as well as the burning gazes he received.
With all eyes on him, Gu Yuanzhao walked straight up to Bai Jing and stood alongside him.
The light hit them both, Gu Yuanzhao handsome and tall in his black military uniform and Bai Jing beautiful and slender in his light-colored suit. As the two stood together, they were like a combination of light and darkness, ice and fire, in a kind of harmony that no one could interfere with.
[Cough, cough, I’ll stand for a second for Young Master Gu and Yun Yun, don’t hit me (dog head)].
[+1, me too ……]
[You’re not alone.]
[The CP feeling is really too strong when these two stand together.]
Hearing these voices in the live stream, Young Master Gu’s huge fan base unexpectedly didn’t retort right then and there.
Perhaps it was because Gu Yuanzhao’s aura of a 3S-level powerhouse was so strong that no matter who stood with him, there was a feeling of not being able to match him.
No matter whether it was a genius Stone Gambler or a girl from an aristocratic family, as long as they were next to Young Master Gu, they would become dull and non-existent.
But this time, instead of being overpowered, the young man standing next to him became even more dazzling, with an aura that was no less than that of Gu Yuanzhao’s.
There was an extremely harmonious atmosphere between the two, as if….. they were meant to be.
When Gu Yuanzhao looked at Bai Jing, his harsh gaze softened instantly and there seemed to be a touch of a smile in his eyes, while he returned to his usual cold and arrogant expression when facing the others.
He looked down at the crowd below the stage: “Before the auction, I have an announcement to make.
Gu Yun, as a member from the side branch of the Gu family, has signed an exclusive Stone Gambler agreement with the Gu Conglomerate. In other words: he is now mine–“
!!
The hearts of the heads of the families stuttered. They never expected that Young Master Gu would act so quickly.
The Gu Conglomerate’s exclusive Stone Gambler?
Such high treatment, the Gu Conglomerate was really generous!
And this, precisely, showed the value of the teenager.
Several of the heads of the various families were remorseful in their hearts.
Why didn’t they make a move as soon as Gu Yun first emerged, but had to wait until the youth had shone and was discovered by everyone before coming to fight for him?
What a blunder!
It seemed they were far less discerning than the heir of the Gu Conglomerate.
The Gu Conglomerate was indeed worthy of being the most powerful plutocrat in the entire empire. They had the right vision and the right timing and didn’t allow others a chance to take advantage of them.
Unfortunately, there was no point in regretting now. The Gu Conglomerate was a huge corporation, how could they dare mess with it easily?
But then if they couldn’t get the person, then what about the jadeite?
They wanted that imperial green glass jadeite badly!
Gu Yuanzhao turned his head to look at Bai Jing, his gaze gentle, his magnetic voice carrying a hint of pampering in it: “Yun Yun, do you want to auction this piece of imperial green glass jadeite?”
Bai Jing frowned at him, “…….?”
Wasn’t there already an agreement, why did he have to ask him?
He looked to the host: “Sorry, this imperial green glass jadeite is not up for auction for now.”
At these words, everyone below the stage looked disappointed.
It was a rare sight to see such a superb jadeite and everyone was curious to see how high the price would go and who would be able to win the jadeite.
As for the people who came afterwards, it went without saying that they had all come for this piece of jadeite, so now that it was no longer up for auction, how could they be willing to let it go?
“Why isn’t it being auctioned off?”
“We came for this piece of jadeite!”
“This superb jadeite will only be worth its weight in gold if it is auctioned off at a high price!”
At first, many people were afraid to speak out due to the authority of Young Master Gu, but this was a matter of profit and since a few people started shouting, everyone followed suit.
Smiling, Gu Yuanzhao looked at Bai Jing: “Yun Yun, since everyone wants you to auction it, let’s do it.”
Bai Jing: “…… Okay.”
It wasn’t a loss either way for him anyway.
Gu Yuanzhao: “Don’t worry, I’ll get this piece of jadeite.”
Receiving a glance from Young Master Gu, the host immediately put on a professional, sweet smile.
“Sorry to have kept everyone waiting.
The Gu Conglomerate will now auction this 3.0 kilo imperial green glass jadeite on behalf of the Stone Gambler. It is a rare and superb jadeite, the worth of which cannot be expressed in words.
Let the bidding begin!”
“Ten million starcoins!”
A well-known rough stones dealer opened his mouth to bid 10 million starcoins, bringing the atmosphere in the hall to a climax amidst the nervous intake of breath from the crowd.
“I’ll give you 15 million!”
“Sixteen million starcoins!”
“Eighteen million starcoins!”
“Twenty million starcoins!”

It’s funny how they think they stand a chance against the richest man in the empire when he’s on the path of wooing his beloved. Profitability is irrelevant.
