Chapter 166: Someone Framed Me

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Mo Yu mocked Gu Cheng’s clumsy and exaggerated acting in her heart. He was simply a 50-year-old middle-aged man forcefully imitating an 18-year-old girl and pretending to be young.

Obviously, Gu Lian and Mo Yu had the same thought. They only glanced indifferently in Gu Cheng’s direction and continued to look at their things.

Gu Lian was extremely anxious. Logically speaking, when ordinary people were gambling stones, they would be curious when they realized that the people beside them were making such a sound of admiration. At the very least, they would take a few more glances. Why was it completely useless when it came to Gu Lian?

Gu Cheng did not give up and continued to click his tongue twice. Then, he shone the light more carefully.

He thought that Gu Lian couldn’t let go of his pride and would only come over to check after he left. He walked around the fake stone a few times and then went to look at the next material.

Before leaving, he did not forget to take a few more reluctant glances before turning to leave.

Gu Cheng thought that his acting skills were already very outstanding. He saw that some of the onlookers had started to ask if they could go in and take a look, but he did not expect that Gu Lian was not affected at all and was still looking on his own.

In the end, Gu Lian stopped in front of a stone worth 30 million yuan. After thinking for a while, he called the attendant over. “This one, open it.”

After saying that, Gu Lian turned to look at Gu Cheng. “Uncle, I’ve chosen. Have you decided?”

Gu Cheng was so shocked that he was dumbfounded. He did not expect Gu Lian to choose another stone without even looking at it.

Gu Lian saw that he had been silent for too long and could not help but remind him kindly, “Uncle, I saw you stop in front of the stone over there for a long time just now. Did you find a good material? Why don’t you take that piece? You were still looking at that piece when you were looking for other stones.”

When Gu Cheng heard him say that, he almost broke out in cold sweat. For a moment, he could not help but wonder if Gu Lian knew something.

However, the person who fiddled with these stones was his trusted aide. That day, he had specially turned off the surveillance cameras in the stone warehouse. There was no reason for Gu Lian to discover it.

Under the pressure, Gu Cheng’s mind raced. He squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying. “Yes, that material is not bad. Unfortunately, 1 only have five million yuan in cash on hand now. That stone is in a ten-million-yuan area. 1 can only part with it. It seems that I’m not fated with it!”

After Gu Cheng finished speaking, he walked towards the stones in the five million yuan area. At the same time, he was glad that his brain had finally become nimble.

In the next second, Gu Lian’s death-like voice sounded, shattering his last fantasy and hope.

“Uncle, you said that you didn’t have enough money. We’re family. 1’11 lend it to you directly. Anyway, your shares are in the Gu Corporation. Just return the dividends to me in the next two months. Swipe my card, I’ll pay for both.”

Gu Cheng turned around in disbelief and met Gu Lian’s smiling gaze.

He clearly had a amicable look, but there was no smile in his eyes. It was simply telling Gu Cheng, I know your plan.

Gu Cheng’s clothes were instantly drenched in cold sweat, and the crowd was in an uproar. They were all praising Gu Lian for being kind. Some even praised the Gu family for teaching him well. There were not so many conflicts of interest between relatives. Instead, they were willing to help each other and get rich together.

Almost everyone was praising Gu Lian. No one noticed that Gu Cheng’s face was pale without a trace of blood.

“This… this isn’t good, right? No matter what, I should be the one paying. Next time.” Gu Cheng almost couldn’t speak properly. He stammered as he fought for his last hope.

However, no one listened to him. The attendant took Gu Lian’s card with a smile and jogged to pay the bill. The staff in charge of opening stones pulled the two stones away in front of him.

Everyone was smiling. Only Gu Cheng’s face was pale and he closed his eyes weakly.

Before it even started, he owed five million yuan.

Gu Lian glanced at Gu Cheng’s expression, and his originally gloomy mood finally improved. He sat back in his chair and waited for the stone to be opened with a smile. The attendant who went to swipe the card had already returned and placed the card in Gu Lian’s hand..
