Fake Daughter Is Rich Again?

As expected.

Qiao Nian only thought for a moment before agreeing. "Sure."

Ji Hongyuan's tense heart relaxed.

He was about to tell the auctioneer that it was enough.

At this moment, the girl slowly said, "Since I have to leave the First Research Institute if I lose, what if you lose?"

"I won't lose!" Ji Hongyuan was very confident. His turbid eyes seemed to have all the authority.

"Tsk." The girl smiled lightly. There was a mocking and surly aura on her exquisite face. She did not waste her breath on him and said concisely, "If I lose, I'll leave the First Research Institute. If the Ji family loses, how about you give me the secret recipe for black gunpowder?"

Ji Hongyuan suddenly looked at her. Amidst his shock, his eyes were so fierce that he wanted to tear Qiao Nian apart.

Qiao Nian did not care. Their eyes met and her dark eyes darkened. His so-called warning and fierce gaze did not seem to stir her at all. She pulled down her baseball cap and said frivolously, "Don't tell me the Ji family can't afford it?"

Her words cut off all of Ji Hongyuan's escape routes.

It was impossible for Ji Hongyuan to admit that he could not afford to play this game in front of everyone. He

represented the Ji family.

After all, in everyone's eyes, Qiao Nian was just a country bumpkin.

As one of the three big families in the Independent Continent, if the Ji family was slapped in the face by a girl with no foundation, they would not dare to accept it. That would be a huge joke.

However, the Ji family's secret recipe for black gunpowder was no ordinary thing. It was the Ji family's secret.

Ji Hongyuan's mind raced.

He Lin took the opportunity to persuade him in a low voice, "Sixth Elder, why don't we forget about the matter today?"

It would have been better if he hadn't said this.

Ji Hongyuan became even more determined. "Hmph, I'll teach her a lesson. How dare a young child ask me for the secret recipe for black gunpowder."

After Ji Hongyuan finished speaking, he said to the auctioneer below, "Sure, I'll bet with you."

He Lin saw that he could not persuade him and could only wait anxiously at the side.

The bet was set.

One side was betting on her entire future, and the other was betting on his family's secret recipe. The two sides were filled with hostility. The auctioneer briefly explained the rules of stone

gambling.

The rules were simple.

Whoever bet on the diamonds and jade in the stones would win. There were a total of three stones. The winner with the highest total price could make a request to the loser. en.swhovels.net

Before the bet began, the auctioneer carefully asked for the requests of both sides again. He confirmed that one side wanted the other to leave the Independent Continent and the First Research Institute, and

other wanted the Ji family's secret formula for black gunpowder.

Seeing that he could not persuade them, he started according to the rules.

Everything on the auction stage was removed. Then, a few hot beauties carried a few inconspicuous stones onto the stage.

More than 20 stones of various sizes were put on the stage.

Moss could be seen on them.

From the outside, these stones looked ordinary, but they were of different sizes and shapes.

Qin Si followed Qiao Nian out to choose stones.

A little uneasy, he asked the girl in a low voice, "Sister Qiao, is it okay for you to make such a big gamble?"

"We've already started playing. If

there's a problem, we can only continue playing. We'll take it one step at a time." Qiao Nian looked relaxed and was still in the mood tojoke.

Convinced, Qin Si gave her a thumbs up and shut his mouth.

Ji Hongyuan also came out of the private room to pick stones with He Lin.

He looked serious as if he was confident. He did not communicate with the girl the entire time.
