Chapter 388 - Heart Broken into Shards
He was here in the flesh!
What kind of concept was that?
This was equivalent to paying a visit to a temple and seeing the Bodhisattva speak.
How blissful!
All of them couldn’t wait to squeeze over immediately to toast and exchange pleasantries. But they were frightened by Gong Jue’s cold aura and didn’t dare to act rashly.
“Master Jue, why don’t we have a drink together?” Bai Lang suggested tentatively.
Gong Jue’s gaze was cold. “I’m not free—”
Before he could finish speaking…
His gaze pierced through the French window and focused on a petite figure.
The man frowned slightly.
Then, he sat down at the master seat in front of the French window.
The rich and young masters from the noble families who wanted to toast him just now were all extremely surprised. Damn it. They finally had the chance to drink with Master Jue on the same stage. They felt that their worth had instantly soared by a few times.
Bai Lang’s lips twitched.
Master Jue, aren’t you busy?
Wasn’t he too stubborn to change her mind so quickly?
Wasn’t he supposed to be an arrogant and cold commander-in-chief who meant what he said?
However, this indirectly proved that Master Jue and he were really good brothers who had gone through life and death together… He gave him too much face.
How touching.
Bai Lang raised his glass in satisfaction and was about to clink glasses with Gong Jue to celebrate.
But she suddenly realized that Gong Jue’s thoughts weren’t on him at all.
That focused gaze seemed to only belong to a certain demoness…
Puzzled, Bai Lang followed Gong Jue’s gaze.
Indeed, he saw Gu Qiqi’s petite back view walking through a group of gamblers who were bidding. Her small hand occasionally touched a stone and occasionally knocked on a stone with an interested look.
Damn it!
He received ten thousand critical blows.
His fragile heart had already shattered into pieces.
Gong Jue actually didn’t stay behind to support him and give him face. Gong Jue actually only stayed behind to sit by the window and watch the little demon conveniently.
How shocking!

At this moment, in the stone gambling den.
Gu Qiqi still didn’t know that she had already become the center of several pairs of eyes.
She had already walked around the venue and carefully got a sense of every stone.
“Master Silver, the appraisal skill has been activated at the last minute. It consumes energy points very quickly. We don’t have many color points in our inventory anymore. Have you found the stone you want?” The little dirty turtle reminded her dutifully.
Gu Qiqi shook her head. “There are two pieces of pure old glass jade. Unfortunately, there’s no red jade in the middle.”
Actually, she also knew that this jade wasn’t that easy to find.
If it really didn’t work, she would come a few more times in the future. She would be able to bump into it, right?
Just as she was about to give up and return home, she heard the little dirty turtle suddenly say in a sharp and urgent voice, “Master, Master. Look, there are a few new untrimmed quarry stones that have been released over there! Go and take a look again.”
“Didn’t you say that there weren’t enough energy points?”
“Eh, Master Silver, your enemies might be gnashing their teeth and thinking about you again. There are so many negative emotions. But it’s good for us since the points will keep rising, haha!”
Gu Qiqi was speechless.
Should she thank them for hating her so much?
The last raw material that was taken out was shown on the golden velvet table.
It wasn’t good in color and was relatively small in size, around the size of a man’s fist.
Gu Qiqi’s small fair hand had just touched one of them.
Behind her, a waiter stopped her. “I’m sorry, but this stone is for the guest in VIP Room 38 upstairs!”
Gu Qiqi raised her eyebrows. “Oh?”
She didn’t even come down to look at the stone, but it was actually snatched away from afar?
There was even such a thing?
