Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife Chapter 160: Chapter 160: It's Clear at a Glance Whether It'

Song Yun's main task during this period was to accompany Ye Qingqing as they flew together, visiting every entertainnt spot, big and small, in the Magic Capital.

But this led to Ye Qingqing constantly complaining of a sore waist and back, insisting on going back to her family's ho.

It was terrifying!

Song Yun was simply inhuman!

At this rate, she felt the possibility of a broken back was very high!

"Husband~ Mom recently ntioned that Dad is sick, and I want to go stay there for a couple of days~"

Ye Qingqing cooed as she snuggled up on Song Yun's chest.

"Ah, then shall we go together?"

"No, no, no, you're too busy with work! Besides, I'm just going to stay for two days and rest for one. Once Dad gets better, I'll co back to be with you~"

Song Yun looked down suspiciously at his wife.

Ye Qingqing's eyes were filled with sincerity; it was as if she was just short of pointing to her face and saying: Believe , believe , let go back quickly!

"Alright, then I'll take you."

Song Yun got up, put on his clothes, and slapped Ye Qingqing's pert bottom as he chuckled, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to, you little minx. If we get back and I see that your father is hale and hearty, just wait and see how I'll deal with you!"

"Aiyah, husband~ It seems like Dad is feeling better already~ Let's not go back!"

"Don't try to avoid it, hurry up and get dressed!"

Song Yun squinted joyfully, admiring his wife's figure. Indeed, he was a common man—his wife always had that sparkle that he'd never grow tired of, not for his entire life.

If he had been born in ancient tis, he would assuredly have been a dissolute emperor.

Ye Qingqing pouted unhappily as she got dressed and followed Song Yun back to the Ye family ho.

anwhile, Ye Qingqing's father was sitting at ho, seriously looking at a stone wrapped in newspaper.

"Mr. Ye, looking at both the texture and pattern of this stone, there's a high likelihood it could be jade. What do you think?"

A middle-aged man in very ordinary clothes caressed the stone, his eyes showing fascination.

He was a gemstone dealer who had been active in the Yunmian area for many years, having set up street stalls and owned shops. This stone could be considered a family heirloom; his grandfather bought it and couldn't bear to cut it, hence it had been kept until now.

If it weren't for a pressing need for funds to buy goods at the gem fair, he wouldn't have bothered flying to show the stone to various wealthy individuals.

"A single cut could make you rich or leave you in rags."

Ye Qingqing's father stroked his chin stubble and said calmly, "How much are you asking for this stone?"

"60 million!"

The gemstone dealer hurriedly said, "To you, this money might be a drop in the bucket, but for , it's life-saving. So, I won't accept any bargaining."

"Whoa, a fixed price, huh."

Ye Qingqing's father had gone gemstone hunting with friends when he was younger, and he still rembered the sound of the cutting machine slicing through stone, as well as his own nervous feelings at that ti.

It wasn't about how much money he had; it was purely the thrill.

"We'll go with your price. Go to my assistant to get the money," he said.

Eventually, Ye Qingqing's father couldn't resist the itch in his heart, waving his hand to indicate that the gemstone dealer could leave.

"Daddy~ I'm back!"

A crisp voice rang out, and Ye Qingqing's father stood up with a broad smile to watch his daughter bouncing into the room.

"You're already soone's wife, yet you're still so unruly."

Ye Qingqing's father tapped her nose and said, "How co you have ti to visit this old man today?"

"Ah, Dad! Mom told you weren't feeling well, so I ca with Song Yun to visit!"

Ye Qingqing asked loudly, frantically signaling with her eyes to her father. Ye father, shrewd as he was, didn't understand why he suddenly beca sick but chose to trust his daughter anyway—his precious baby girl wouldn't lie to him, right?

"It's much better now. Where's Song Yun?"

"Dad, I just went to park the car."

Song Yun slowly walked in, wrapping his arm around Ye Qingqing's shoulder.

"You've co at the perfect ti. Take a look at this new stone I bought!"

Ye father pulled Song Yun over, caressing the rough, uneven exterior of the stone as if he were touching the skin of the most beautiful woman in the world.

Song Yun could tell from the stone that it was jade material, specifically for stone gambling. He'd heard that this stuff could make soone rich overnight or plunge them into an abyss just as quickly. Overall, he wasn't too fond of this type of gambling.

But Ye father was different. Not to ntion the old man's substantial family wealth was enough to support his stone hobby for a lifeti, he was also Song Yun's father-in-law. The father-in-law had already been working hard managing the company for him on a daily basis, so what's the harm in a little hobby?

Song Yun crouched beside the stone, looking at the material that weighed over forty pounds. Honestly, he didn't have the "golden eye" to see through such a thick shell.

However, the "python bands" on the outside of the stone, as well as the faint green light that shone out when illuminated with a strong flashlight, proved that there was a great chance that slicing this stone open could turn a tidy profit.

"Ding, the host has been detected in Ye family's residence in Magic Capital. Would you like to accept the task?"

"???"

This was when the system suddenly assigned a task. After pondering for a mont, Song Yun clicked on 'Accept'.

"Ding, please solve the piece of jade material in front of you within one hour and bet whether this raw stone will lose or gain value. Successful bets will be rewarded!"

Whoa!

Is this considered a bet with the system???

Now the system doesn't love anymore, not giving direct rewards but making guess.

How the tis have degenerated, the system has lost its ancient heart!

"Dad, how much did you pay for this stone?"

"60 million—not too much," Ye father said indifferently, "I once went on a trip to the south and encountered a public sale. The king stone of that event went for over 2 billion!"

"60 million huh..." Song Yun suddenly lost his nerve. Even immortals can't predict the quality of jade, and he didn't know the current price of jade either. The stone looked pretty good, but what if the quality is diocre after it's opened? Then wouldn't he lose?

Take a gamble!

His luck had been decent recently; he didn't believe he would lose!

"System, I bet it will go up!"

"Ding, host information received. Please solve the stone within one hour!"

"Dad, I'll call a few masters over, and we'll open the stone soon to see what treasures are inside!"

At this mont, Song Yun's eyes were shining, causing a chill to settle in Ye father's heart.

A fine piece of stone that he had gotten with great difficulty hadn't even ward up in his hands before his son-in-law decided to open it.

Well then, it would have to be solved sooner or later!

Song Yun called three jade craftsn in their fifties through his contacts. These three had spent their entire lives imrsed in the trade of stones and had extrely discerning eyes.

Along with them ca a cutting machine.

The three masters crouched in front of the stone and discussed for about half an hour. They argued incessantly about how to cut the stone.

With just over ten minutes left to the task deadline, Song Yun started to get impatient.

He lifted the stone onto the machine—nevermind all that complicated crap, one clean cut and whether it's a profit or loss would be imdiately clear!
