Chapter 70.1
Editor: Jodi
After solving all seven rough stones, Bai Jing left under the searing and reverent gazes of the crowd1It says eight in the raws but I’m pretty sure it’s seven. But if it’s really eight, please let me know and I will change it.
And if it wasn’t because the Imperial Major General was keeping a close watch by his side with a cold face, many would have approached this genius of the gambling world eagerly, hoping to make his acquaintance. Even if they couldn’t get his contact information, exchanging a few words to become familiar would suffice.
Because from this day onward, or rather from this very night, this teenager’s status would change completely.
With a rate of betting increase that surpassed that of the level eight Stone Gambler Gu Liu Bai, coupled with the exposure from Sotho Star Planet’s Emporium, the name Gu Yun would resound throughout the entire empire!
After returning to the hotel, Bai Jing took a hot shower to wash away the fatigue of the day quickly, then dove into the soft and comfortable hotel bed.
He was so tired from the day’s going ons that he fell asleep the moment his head touched the pillow.
It wasn’t until the next morning that Bai Jing had the chance to check his earnings on his light brain.
The delicately featured teenager half-lay on the pristine white bedding, his slender white legs swaying slightly in the air, a bright smile on his lips.
Hmm, aside from the two pieces of jadeites of the glass variety that had been left behind, the other five jadeites had fetched a price of 90 million starcoins—not bad at all.
If he could extract grade six energy fluid from those two pieces of jadeites of the glass variety, he could earn nearly two billion starcoins, while the primary cost was only 16 million starcoins!
Bai Jing was very satisfied with the results of the first day.
At the same time, his new information data popped up on his light brain:
ID: 1053166247
Name: Bai Jing
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Status: Citizen of the Galactic Empire
Genetic Rank: C
Physical Rank: A
Mental Power Level: 3S
[Skill Designation: Level Five Stone Gambler]
[Accumulated points: 265]
[Rate of betting increase: 48.3%]
His rate of betting increase was just a little short of the 50% that was required for one to become a level six Stone Gambler, however by betting on a few more pieces tomorrow, he should be able to reach it.
Just as he was thinking this, Gu Yuanzhao knocked on his door gently: “Ah Jing, are you awake? It’s time for breakfast.”
Bai Jing responded with a lazy tone, signalling for him to come straight in.
So when the man entered, what he saw was a teenager swinging his bare slender legs in the air casually, his skin as fair as jade, his round toes curling sometimes and then closing together, looking especially beautiful, his ankles even slender enough to be grasped by one hand.
Meanwhile because Bai Jing was half-lying on the bed, his collar opened slightly, revealing a small, exquisite collarbone, causing Gu Yuanzhao’s breath to catch, the knot in his throat tightening unconsciously.
Bai Jing didn’t notice his abnormality as he propped himself up casually and sat on the edge of the bed. “Gu Yuanzhao, I made such a big splash yesterday, I’m thinking the aristocratic families behind Yan Ji might take action.”
“…..En. But Ah Jing, you’re now in the spotlight, so they probably won’t make a move at this time. The most likely time is when the Sotho Star Planet’s Emporium ends.”
Gu Yuanzhao’s voice carried a bit of hoarseness, his pitch-black eyes fixed tightly on the pair of jade feet that were dangling from the bed, his gaze like that of a starving wolf eyeing its delicious prey, without any disguise.
Bai Jing’s sensitive and round toes curled up unconsciously, however just as he was about to put his shoes on, Gu Yuanzhao suddenly stepped forward, knelt down, then grabbed his ankle.
His palm was large and hot, and it pressing against his ankle gave Bai Jing a sensation that his skin was being burned. He pulled his leg back but wasn’t able to take it back, causing his brows to furrow slightly as he looked at Gu Yuanzhao.
And from his angle, there seemed to be a strange sense of him looking down from a high position, making it a bit strange.
However before he could think further, Gu Yuanzhao lifted his calf gently, then a scorching kiss landed on his fair instep.
Bai Jing’s beautiful teal coloured eyes widened violently, his face suddenly turning red. “Gu, Gu Yuanzhao, don’t be like this…..”
He really didn’t expect Gu Yuanzhao to make such, such… an action that didn’t suit his status. It was clearly just a light kiss, however it felt unusually romantic.
Gu Yuanzhao’s action of kneeling down to kiss the teenager’s instep was like a knight offering his lifelong loyalty to his king, devout and cherished, yet containing countless tenderness.
Bai Jing’s heart pounded, and the moment Gu Yuanzhao let go of his ankle, he drew his legs back quickly, crawled back, then covered his head with the blanket. “You go out first, I want to change!”
Gu Yuanzhao laughed softly, stood up, walked out, then closed the door behind him considerately.
After Bai Jing heard the sound of him leaving, it took a while before the hot blush on his face went down.
However when putting his shoes on, he couldn’t help but think of the kiss that had been imprinted on his instep, then shaking his head hurriedly, he changed, then went to the dining room to eat.
