Xie Junyan nudged Gou Junfa, knowing that Song Zhengyang was about to get really angry. He gave Song Zhengyang a small smile. “Uncle Song, of course we trust you. Master Gou was only worried for you. Wouldn’t we be giving you a bitter pill if we won?”

Song Zhengyang didn’t give any indication towards Xie Junyan’s explanation. However, Tang Meng felt indignant. He stood up and said, “Xie Junyan, that is not right. Uncle Song is just putting the bet on behalf of Big Brother Yun. It’s not like we can’t afford the hundred million. Even if we were to lose, Uncle Song will not be paying for us. Stop trying to be pretentious.”

Ling Yun was oblivious to the argument on both sides. He leaned forward slightly and gave a smile. “Uncle Song, I don’t need your money. I brought the jade box out to prove that I have the financial might for the bet! Aren’t they unable to bring the full amount of the bet to the table as well? I will transfer the hundred million stake to your account tomorrow as long as the bet goes through tonight.”

Ling Yun was satisfied with Song Zhengyang’s ability. Song Zhengyang had a good eye for antiques since he was able to identify that the box was priceless.

The most important thing was that Song Zhengyang was very experienced in dealing with such situations. He was willing to fork out the hundred million on behalf of Ling Yun without mortgaging the jade box. He was obviously standing on Ling Yun’s side.

Song Zhengyang finally took his eyes off of the Psychic Jade Box and shot an amused look at Ling Yun. “We will talk about this tomorrow.”

He then swept his eyes over both sides and coughed lightly. “Both parties have proven their ability to uphold the hundred million stake. If there are no other issues, we’ll draw up the gambling terms and conditions, effective immediately. I will transfer the money to the account of the winning party when the admission notices are released. Are we all clear?”

Gou Junfa took out two copies of the contract that had been prepared beforehand. He knew there was no point in saying anything else anymore.

Tang Meng took one contract and looked over it carefully. He handed it over to Ling Yun after ascertaining that it had no problem.

Both parties signed the contract and handed it over to Song Zhengyang. Song Zhengyang did a thorough check before signing off as witness on both contracts.

“Your bet is on!” Song Zhengyang kept the contracts and glanced at both parties.

“Haha, I have been doing this for the past twenty years. I must say that I’ve not seen such daring high school students throughout my career! What was that saying again? The rear waves of the Yangtze River drive on those before, and those before die on the beach. Young heroes! I am getting old...”

Song Zhengyang was addressing the whole room, but his gaze was locked onto Ling Yun with praise and expectation.

“Uncle Song, you think too highly of us. Who can beat you in a bet throughout the whole of Huaxia?” Xie Junyan regained his usual demeanor since they had settled their matter. He sang high praises of Song Zhengyang with a casual remark.

Song Zhengyang looked hard at Xie Junyan and smiled. “You are the one who is giving me too much praise. Who dares claim the throne in gambling?”

Song Zhengyang might have replied humbly, but his eyes were lit with self-confident pride. He neither accepted nor denied Xie Junyan’s statement about himself.

“Ling Yun, this is my name card. You can come looking for me at the Pearl Jade Court in the Antique Market if you have some spare time from studying.” Song Zhengyang reached into his pockets and fished out a glittering business card. He handed it to Ling Yun with a smile.

Xie Junyan, Gou Junfa and even Tang Meng couldn’t conceal their envy upon seeing this scene.

Ling Yun bent over slightly and received Song Zhengyang’s name card with both hands respectfully. Ling Yun found the business card to be made of pure gold to his delight. He looked over it carefully.

The card might be made of pure gold, but the information it was meant to transmit couldn’t be any simpler. It contained only two things: Song Zhengyang’s name and his phone number.

Song Zhengyang’s name was his identifier. There was no need to add any titles onto the business card.

“Uncle Song, I will surely pay you a visit. I haven’t given you the bet yet. I have much to learn from you.” Ling Yun beamed at Song Zhengyang before pocketing his name card.

Was Ling Yun really put a hundred million on the table? Of course not. His style had always been buying and selling without the need for capital. He was not going to put a hundred million cash with Song Zhengyang for three months. The money would rot.

It was not possible to mortgage his Psychic Jade Box either. It was Ling Yun’s greatest trump card. Ling Yun could not have given Song Zhengyang the box even if Song Zhengyang had dared to accept it.

Ling Yun had two mansions worth nearly ninety million and a clinic worth about ten million. That would make up the hundred million. Ling Yun would put the real estate title deeds with Song Zhengyang.

“Ling Yun, do keep your treasures safely. You can’t just leave this little baby out in the open like this!”

Song Zhengyang had planned to leave immediately after the deed was done. Nonetheless, how could a jade lover like him bear to leave the eye-catching Psychic Jade Box which was still in plain view?

Song Zhengyang couldn’t help but chide Ling Yun for his nonchalant attitude towards the Psychic Jade Box. Of course, he didn’t know that Ling Yun possessed a spatial ring.

“No problem. Why don’t you bring it home for a few days since you like it so much...” Ling Yun played the situation to his advantage, fully aware that Song Zhengyang would not take up the offer.

“Sigh, I won’t bring it home, but if you aren’t in a hurry to put it away, I will... ahem ahem, I will admire it for a while more. This really is a superior piece of imperial green jade...”

Song Zhengyang didn’t dare to accept it as expected. He picked up the Psychic Jade Box again carefully and caressed it with his extraordinary hands. He was more excited than when he had caressed his first lover so many years before.

Gou Junfa and Xie Junyan knew they had shot themselves in the foot seeing how Song Zhengyang was being wrapped around Ling Yun’s fingers. They could do nothing about it.

Ling Yun was shocked and moved.

There was a saying — keep the beautiful case and return the more valuable pearl. Miracle Doctor Xue had given Ling Yun the nine golden needles, which was nothing special other than the odd size. It was definitely not as valuable as the Psychic Jade Box.

Miracle Doctor Xue might not have known that the Psychic Jade Box had its own consciousness, but he had definitely known that it was a peerless piece of jade!

Miracle Doctor Xue and Xue Meining hadn’t mentioned the matter again after Miracle Doctor Xue had given Ling Yun the nine golden needles, psychic jade box and the sandalwood casing. How could Ling Yun not be shaken after knowing the value of the jade box?

And Ning Er’s deep affection for him...

Miao Fenghuang, Miao Xiaomiao... Ling Yun decided to fulfill the matter for Miracle Doctor Xue no matter the price!

Tie Xiaohu and Gou Junfa’s gang burst into the room at that moment.

“Big Brother Yun, it’s all done. Here’s two hundred thousand!” Tie Xiaohu placed the black bag gently in front of Ling Yun.

“Great!” Ling Yun nodded happily. He looked up the three dejected sinners and smiled. “Right, I will let bygones be bygones since you’ve shown such sincerity!”

Ling Yun stood up and pointed at Gou Junfa unceremoniously. “Little puppy, I was just going to teach you a lesson because we are classmates. Don’t blame me for what’s about to happen. You repeatedly asked for it!”

“And you, Xie Junyan. We had nothing to settle. Since you chose his side, don’t blame me when the time comes either!”

“Let me give you a solemn warning again before I leave. Don’t even think about courting my sister Ning Lingyu from now on. You don’t deserve her. Do you understand!?”

Ling Yun stopped taking any more notice of the two as he flashed a grin towards Song Zhengyang. “Uncle Song, I don’t want to stay here any longer. I’ll give you a lift since you really like the jade box. We can chat on the way.”

Song Zhengyang smiled brightly and stood up with the box in hand. “Of course Uncle Song likes it. I’ve never since such a beautiful baby in my life. I can’t be holding on to it since you are leaving.”

Ling Yun took the box from Song Zhengyang’s outstretched hand and handed it to Tang Meng.

“Uncle Song, shall we head off together, or...?” Ling Yun offered again.

Song Zhengyang asked Ling Yun to wait for a moment as he turned towards the dejected Xie Junyan and Gou Junfa. “Lads, I am here as a witness tonight because of my relationship with your elders. Rest assured, I will not be biased. The bet will be carried out based on the contract! It’s already one in the morning. I’ll get going first since I have many things to do tomorrow.”

“Uncle Song, thank you for your help. We’ll send you off!” Xie Junyan and Gou Junfa stood up hastily and offered simultaneously.

Song Zhengyang held up a hand. “There’s no need. I’ll head off with Ling Yun!”

Song Zhengyang didn’t show his position before they had signed the contract, which was all fair and just. His last sentence, however, unceremoniously indicated that he was completely on Ling Yun’s side.

“Let’s go!” Song Zhengyang cupped Ling Yun’s shoulders cordially and walked out.

“Hehe, you’re just waiting to lose money! One hundred million! That will be the death of you!” Tang Meng scoffed at Gou Junfa and his gang before heading out.
