The girl didn't even look up; she simply held up five fingers.

"One hundred thousand yuan!"

That silvery voice was very pleasant to hear, with a hint of laziness and impatience.

Chu Yang didn't haggle; he simply took out his phone.

The girl glanced furtively at Chu Yang's outfit and immediately changed her tune.

"I misspoke, it's one million."

Chu Yang frowned.

Judging from the quality of that rough stone, its market value is at least around 50 million, yet it is still priced but unavailable.

However, he did not like the other party's practice of raising prices on the spot.

The girl seemed to sense Chu Yang's thoughts and looked up to meet his gaze.

A few strands of chestnut-brown curly hair peeked out from under the brim of a baseball cap, and her honey-colored skin accentuated her striking features.

Her small nose was slightly upturned, and her lips were naturally upturned, with a sharp canine tooth embedded in it, making her look cunning and lively.

A garish sequined T-shirt, faded jeans with muddy cuffs, and a cheap seashell bracelet on her wrist jingling with every movement.

His eyes were languid, yet alert.

She is estimated to be around the same age as Lü Sisi, and her appearance is in a different style, but she is also the kind of beauty who, with a little polishing, could easily stand in the top tier.

"Uncle, my family used to be in the jade business. Later, my dad was swindled and jumped off a building, leaving us with only this one treasure. I had no choice but to sell it. Many experts have examined it; this rough stone contains top-grade imperial green, and it's completely green."

"I just didn't have the courage to make that cut. A million is an absolute steal."

Chu Yang knew that listening to other people's background stories in a place like this was all nonsense.

However, he didn't want to argue with a young girl.

"This time it's settled, one million, no going back on your word, right?"

"Hmm, you seem like a straightforward guy, uncle. I'll give you a discount, 999,980!"

Chu Yang: "..."

"Okay, I'll transfer the money to you."

When he said this, Chu Yang didn't even hold the stone in his hand to examine it closely.

The girl was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Chu Yang to give her the money without even taking a closer look at it. She wondered how many mines this spendthrift had at home.

"I... my dad had a lot of debt before he died, and all my bank cards have been frozen. Now I can only accept cash."

She pointed to the end of the alley, "Go straight and turn right, there's a bank there."

Chu Yang sensed something was off, but didn't pay much attention to it.

Su Wanning has a high-level bank card, so Chu Yang had no trouble withdrawing one million yuan in cash. The bank even gave him a bag to carry the cash.

As soon as he stepped out of the bank, Chu Yang waved the bag in his hand.

"Cash on delivery."

The girl looked around warily.

"There are too many people here. I might get robbed if I carry so much money. Come with me to the back alley."

She led Chu Yang through a maze of twists and turns, completely confusing him.

Finally, we arrived at a secluded, deserted alley.

The girl took out the raw stone from her bag and handed it to Chu Yang, while her other hand reached out to take the bag containing one million.

At that very moment, Chu Yang smelled a peculiar scent—the scent of Gu worms.

He immediately examined the girl in front of him closely; she seemed to resemble Chi Ming's description in some ways.

Just as he was stunned, the girl swiftly retrieved the raw stone and turned to run away.

Chu Yang reacted quickly and grabbed her arm.

Without hesitation, the girl shouted at the top of her lungs, "Indecent assault! Help!"

Chu Yang wasn't surprised now. If this girl really was that little liar who had fooled Chi Ming, then this was definitely a trap she had set.

Just then, seven or eight burly men carrying various weapons rushed out of a courtyard and surrounded Chu Yang.

They were all rubbing their hands together, looking ready to strike at any moment.

"Let go of that girl!"

"You dare to harass a respectable young woman in broad daylight!"

A burly man was holding a gleaming watermelon knife, the tip of which almost poked Chu Yang's nose.

"Kneel down! Kneel and beg the girl to admit your mistake, and I'll let you go today!"

Chu Yang looked at the men of varying heights, builds, and builds, and then at the weapons in their hands. Besides a watermelon knife, some were carrying rolling pins, spatulas, and ladles. There was even a fat man in a sanitation worker's uniform carrying a large broom.

These people are probably not from any gang or criminal organization; they are likely a makeshift group set up temporarily, and they are all people who live in this area.

Today, Chu Yang really didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble. The Yin Sha Pill in his body had limited energy, and he didn't want to waste it on these few people.

"How about this, I'll give you another two million, as long as you give me that stone."

As soon as he finished speaking, the watermelon knife in the big man's hand clattered to the ground, and his face was full of astonishment.

The other burly men were also stunned.

The cunning girl seemed frozen in place, her mouth agape, unable to close.

"This kid must be out of his mind! Tangtang, you should just sell him to him already."

"Yeah, we only get one every few days, and each time it's only worth 20,000 or 30,000 at most. Besides, our reputation is ruined in the antique market. Let's just sell it to this idiot."

Chu Yang glared at the two men who were speaking, annoyed.

Tangtang shook her head firmly and uttered two words, "Not for sale!"

The man who dropped the watermelon knife on the ground sighed in frustration.

Chu Yang found it rather strange.

It seems that Tangtang doesn't know how valuable this rough stone is, but she seems to treasure it very much.

The way they refused just now wasn't because they wanted to raise the price, but because they were reluctant to part with it.

"I don't want the stone anymore! And I don't want the million either!"

As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned, wondering what this "fool" was about to do.

A tall, thin man, quick-witted as ever, shouted angrily, "You brat! Don't even think about making a move on Tangtang!"

The others also agreed with the tall, thin man's guess.

"Damn! This kid is shameless!"

"I was feeling a little guilty about ripping him off for a million, but now it seems this kid's just a rich playboy. Slaughtering this 'fat pig' today is doing justice to heaven!"

But Tangtang's expression turned serious.

"You really want to spend a million to sleep with me? How much money do you have?"

Chu Yang was misunderstood and wanted to explain that he wanted to use that million to exchange for Chi Ming's Gu worms.

But seeing Tangtang's serious expression, he felt a little tempted to tease her.

"My family has a lot of money! How much do you think is appropriate?"

Tangtang forcefully pulled at the corners of her lips, as if trying to encourage herself.

"I...I want one hundred million!"

As soon as he said this, a series of "clinking" sounds could be heard all around him.

The spatulas, ladles, and rolling pins were all lying on the ground.

The men stared wide-eyed at Tangtang, just as they had looked at Chu Yang earlier, as if Tangtang had gone mad.

Rich people like to play around with women, but even sleeping with a top-tier celebrity wouldn't cost a hundred million.

Just when they thought Tangtang had gone mad, Chu Yang laughed.
