Chapter 33 Chapter 33. X-ray

The man gulped. His fear was visible to the naked eye.

However, he had just been talking big, and if he backed down now, he would lose face more or less.

And so,

he targeted me again.

“Kid, didn’t your mother tell you not to mess with people you shouldn’t?

I’ll remember you.” He looked so fierce, trying to make me retreat.

In exchange for some face.

“My mom told me not to talk to an idiot like you.”

I pretended to be helpless and shook my head. “Sigh, even so, I’ve still been merciful and taught you a lesson. Don’t be too touched.”

The man was so angry that he almost fainted.

He looked at me like he was looking at an enemy.

But after a long time, he still couldn’t figure out how to refute me, so he could only swallow his harsh words.

“You wait! You wait!”

After that, the man took his raw material and left angrily, not caring about the girl sitting on the ground.

Looking at his back, my expression was indifferent as I coldly said, “Coward.”

“This kind of trash only knew how to bite his family.”

A moment later, I turned around to face the crowd.

“Everyone, please disperse. Don’t cause any blockage.”

…

Seeing that there was nothing to see, the surrounding crowd dispersed.

I stepped forward and helped the girl who had fallen beside the stone-cutting machine.

The girl looked up at me gratefully.

I could only see her face clearly at such a close distance.

She had bright eyes, white teeth, and a delicate face. Her black hair hung straight behind her back. Her appearance was as pure

and lovely as the spring breeze.

The handprint on her face made her look even more pitiful, which incited my desire to

protect her.

“Thank you,” When I helped her, she cried and expressed gratitude to me.

“You’re too polite.” I gave her a comforting look. “It’s nothing.”

At this moment, Catherine also came to my side.

Catherine hugged the girl and comforted her.

“Miss, that man just now is your boyfriend?

“I asked tentatively.

“No.” The lady shook her head. “He’s my

brother.”

“Just call me Shen Yanyan.” Shen Yanyan said

her name.

She looked around and told us her story in a low voice when she saw a few people

everywhere.

“I’m very good at stone gambling, so my

brother always brings me here to gamble. He also earns a lot of money because of my

ability.

But in private, he’s not very good to me. Because my parents passed away when I was young, and my brother raised me, he always thought I was a burden and beat and scolded

me.

Shen Yanyan rolled up her sleeves as she

spoke.

Under her wide sleeves, there were bruises.

And this is only what we can see at the moment. In other words, Shen Yanyan’s entire body might be covered with even more

terrifying scars.

“Beast!” Catherine cursed.

My face was also filled with anger.

Shen Yanyan smiled weakly. “I was helping

my brother to bet on stones as usual, but I was too tired and accidentally made a mistake. That’s why my brother scolded me in

front of everyone.

Am I that useless?” Shen Yanyan shook her

head bitterly.

“Why could you?” I said gently, “You’re great.

Stone gambling has always been problematic. You’re so talented that you can accurately judge whether there’s jade. It’s not easy.”

I looked at Shen Yanyan encouragingly again. “Trust me; even if you leave your brother, you can still make a name for yourself.

Even if we don’t talk about wealth, with your

ability, you don’t have to worry about food and clothing.” I said.

Shen Yanyan’s ability is powerful, so I’m only being conservative.

It wasn’t difficult for her to become rich.

“Is it true?” Shen Yanyan’s eyes were filled with hope.

But soon, Shen Yanyan thought of something,

and her hope was extinguished.

“But my brother won’t let me go. He’ll take

me back,” Shen Yanyan sobbed. “If I’m taken back, I’ll end up in a terrible state.”

“What are you afraid of? We’re in a society

ruled by law now.” My eyes were determined.

“He’s your brother.

And you are an independent person. He can’t control your actions and thoughts.

If he forces you to help him again, use

reasonable means to protect yourself!” I said righteously.

Shen Yanyan is in a dangerous situation. If I can save her …

She would become a good business partner!

“Really?” Shen Yanyan was still hesitant.

But it was clear that she yearned for freedom.

She didn’t dare to do so in the past because she was imprisoned.

If she took the first step, she could usher in a

‘rebirth’.

“Don’t worry,” Suddenly, Catherine said thoughtfully, “My name is Catherine. I will help you escape from the scumbag. Yanyan, are you willing to believe me?”

Catherine’s eyes were filled with sincerity.

Catherine’s sincerity even moved Shen Yanyan more.

“Not just her; I’ll help you too,” I said.

“Your brother is all alone. How can he defeat

us?” I continued to persuade her. “I promise that your life after you escape from your

brother will be different from before.” ‘Alright!” Because of our constant persuasion, Shen Yanyan finally tried to escape the cage.

“I will not be controlled by him again!” She

became more and more determined and finally smiled.

After Shen Yanyan made up her mind, I let

her live near my house.

So, Shen Yanyan naturally followed us to

stone gambling Street.

[ Remaining time for the upgrade mission: 30 minutes. ]

[ Please complete it as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will not be able to upgrade the

system. ]

After the system’s voice sounded, I felt a headache.

There was still half an hour left, but I had no

clue, so I could only wander around stone gambling Street.

If that were the case, it would be strange if the mission could be completed.

“Brother Luo,” Shen Yanyan suddenly called

me.

I was pulled back from my thoughts and

raised my eyebrows at her. “What’s the

matter?”

Shen Yanyan didn’t reply to me directly. Instead, she went to the most oversized stone-gambling stall.

“Brother Luo, you can point at any material you want.” Shen Yanyan said meaningfully. I was a little confused; what was Shen Yanyan

doing?

But in the end, I accepted her good intentions. I casually pointed at the raw material in the

corner.

“Brother Luo’s luck is pretty good. This piece is a bean seed.” Shen Yanyan didn’t even touch the raw material. “If you buy it, you can make a few thousand Yuan.

Point again.” Shen Yanyan continued. I was still shocked as I randomly pointed to another slightly larger raw material.

Shen Yanyan shook her head. “This one won’t

1. There’s no green inside.” “!” I widened my eyes. “There’s no green in this one. This one is of the glutinous type, but it’s a

pity it has cracks. However, you can still earn

some money. Unfortunately, this one doesn’t have any green either.”

Brother Luo is so lucky. It has an ice seed! Although small, you can earn a few hundred thousand.”

I pointed

at a few of them, and Shen Yanyan

could tell the internal structure of the raw material in an instant.

Catherine was also shocked, but her eyes were filled with suspicion.

But I don’t think she’s talking nonsense. After

all, Shen Yanyan’s brother had become rich

because of her.

I’m shocked that she didn’t even touch the

raw material and could answer the internal

structure of the raw material. A guess flashed through my mind, and I suddenly woke up.
