Chapter 387 - Stone Gambling

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Qi Hao, Lu Yunfeng, Yu Jinzhou, and Wang Xuewen found out that these dishes really had been cooked by an imperial chef; their sister-in-law had recently bought a house, and conveniently picked up a prince, an imperial chef, and a little attendant.

The private room suddenly fell silent.

Wang Xuewen and Qi Hao truly couldn’t help but curse in shock. “Holy sh*t, Sister-in-law, you’re awesome!”

At that moment, the boys didn’t care at all whether or not the two brats in front of them were real ghosts. They thought about how their sister-in-law would have an imperial chef at her villa who would be in charge of cooking in the future; this was simply treatment that only former emperors could enjoy.

Everyone stared at Chi Shuyan with envy and hatred, but what could they do? They didn’t have Sister-in-law’s abilities at all.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

They couldn’t catch ghosts, but they could at least freeload, right?

At that moment, the group stared at Chi Shuyan, asking with their unscrupulous expressions if they could ‘occasionally’ go over to mooch food. Chi Shuyan curled her lip and said, “Okay!”

At that moment, she had no idea what ‘occasionally’ meant to this bunch. That was something for later.

Perhaps it was because Chef Li’s dishes were too delicious and captivating, but looking at the two brats on the side now, the boys no longer showed any fear, and started playing around.

One by one, they took turns carrying the two little guys. It was fine for the young attendant, Han Yu, but Ninth Prince Li Yu, who felt that he had already grown up, had a displeased expression.

Chi Shuyan looked at the time and decided they should go. She also asked if they had time to go to a stone gambling den for a look. Those who wanted could go with her, and the rest didn’t have to.

Lu Yunfeng could be considered familiar with stone gambling, where the chances of winning was one in ten. Lu Yunfeng knew that Haozi’s sister-in-law was capable, but stone gambling truly didn’t rely on skill, but on luck. Of course, it was helpful if you understood stone gambling very well.

But it really was just gambling in the end, and all about luck.

Lu Yunfeng recounted his previous experience with stone gambling and expressed that he had gone a few times, but had always lost. He hadn’t gained anything, and lost quite a bit.

Lu Yunfeng couldn’t help but say, “Sister-in-law, the bets in stone gambling are pretty big. Or do you know quite a bit about this line of business? Have you tried it before?”

Chi Shuyan didn’t know anything about stone gambling at all. She only had some general knowledge. In terms of luck, she really wasn’t worried.

Chi Shuyan opened her eyes and looked at Lu Chengfu, then walked over and patted his shoulder. “Help Sister-in-law choose a few pieces of stone today. If it’s a dud, it’s on me. If we hit a jackpot, there’ll be plenty of benefits.”

Lu Chengfu was inexplicably called out by his sister-in-law, and felt immense pressure. He gritted his teeth and flushed. “Sister-in-law, I really don’t know anything about stone gambling! I’ve never tried it before!”

He didn’t know anything, so how could he gamble? Wouldn’t that be wasting Sister-in-law’s money?

Qi Hao said indignantly, “Sister-in-law, I’ll bet tens of millions for you later. I’ll make you dozens of bracelets from the stones.”

Chi Shuyan agreed on the surface, but she really didn’t think much of this kid in her heart. It wasn’t that she was biased, but she was thinking about his luck. Whether it was his trip to the burial mound or the matter of the spirit rice, this kid hemorrhaged wealth, even if he was rich and didn’t lack money. He only knew how to give the good stuff away.

But Chi Shuyan still didn’t splash cold water on this kid, and said, “Haozi, you can do it too!”

On the side, Ninth Prince Li Yu didn’t forget to lean in front of Chi Shuyan and say cockily, “This royal one will also win money for you! This royal one is a noble of the heavens, and has always been very lucky!”
