Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 1472: Chapter 1456: Did Huo Sining Lose It All Gambling?

The elderly Mr. Bai and the young man who had previously brought Huo Sining to see the stone gambling both found themselves speechless.

Especially Mr. Bai, who had lived for most of his life, having encountered countless expert gamblers, yet he had never seen anyone as reckless and disorganized as Huo Sining.

He had always thought that Huo Sining deserved the title of Gambling King, but seeing Huo Sining casually letting his partner cut up the raw materials like this made Boss Bai begin to have doubts.

Nowadays, media reports exaggerate the facts, and there is not much credibility. Boss Bai was very skeptical if Huo Sining’s fame was all media hype and promotion.

After half an hour of fooling around, yet another pile of waste material appeared below the stone cutting machine, exhausting not just Su Qingqing, but also Wu Ya and Bai Yishan.

”Ningning, should we keep cutting?”

Su Qingqing, having cut up more than a dozen pieces of raw material without finding a single piece of green jade, was starting to feel anxious. She wondered if her luck was just too bad, always cutting failures. If this continued, Ningning’s $100,000 wouldn’t even get a $10,000 return.

Wu Ya and Bai Yishan also found it strange and instinctively looked towards Huo Sining.

Having taken a short rest and regained his strength, Huo Sining saw the apprehensive looks of the three women and smiled, saying, ”Of course, we need to cut. Didn’t I promise Boss Bai that we’d finish cutting these materials before leaving? Let’s take turns; whoever feels tired can rest. Let’s finish cutting and leave quickly.”

With that, Huo Sining started energetically again, cutting for more than an hour, leaving only a handful of raw pieces out of more than two hundred blocks.

The elderly Mr. Bai, who had been waiting silently to see how things would unfold, couldn’t help but furrow his brows as he looked at the last few remaining pieces on the floor, thinking to himself if he might have really misjudged things.

Not just Mr. Bai, but even Su Qingqing and Bai Yishan exchanged glances, puzzled.

From the beginning, they thought Huo Sining was playing a hidden ace, spending $100,000 to buy these raw materials, surely because there were good things inside. But until these materials were reduced to just a few pieces, the miracle they hoped to see still hadn’t happened.

Both knew that Huo Sining’s skill in stone gambling had reached an unparalleled level. Not many people could extract a Jade Heaven Bead or an Imperial Green Dragon Stone species from granite waste. So they had very high expectations for this pile of raw materials.

In their view, if there was no grand deceit in these materials, there was no reason for Huo Sining to put so much effort and energy into these worthless stones.

But from the beginning of the cutting process until now, they’ve gone through almost two hundred pieces without seeing any green.

Could it be that their luck was so bad, cutting so many pieces without hitting the one with Superior Jadeite? Could the real good stuff be hidden in the remaining few pieces?

Thinking of this possibility, the women all looked over at the few pieces of material left on the floor.

Mr. Bai had the same thought as Su Qingqing and Bai Yishan. Although he was already doubting Huo Sining’s skills in stone gambling, it was an undeniable fact that this woman shone brilliantly in Ruili and Myanmar. Even if the media exaggerated a bit, she was certainly exceptional.

$100,000 is equivalent to six or seven hundred thousand Huaxia Currency. Who would willingly be such a fool, spending so much money on a bunch of worthless brick materials? If these raw materials didn’t increase in value, would Huo Sining be this persistent, cutting through so many of them?

Mr. Bai was full of doubts, especially when he saw Huo Sining’s gaze occasionally land on the few remaining pieces of raw materials, even showing a slight smile at the corner of her mouth. It made his heart skip a beat, feeling a bad premonition.

Could it be that the real treasure has yet to be revealed? Are those remaining materials truly Huo Sining’s actual target? Could they really yield High Jade?

Mr. Bai’s heart trembled, and his gaze turned fiery as he looked at the remaining brick materials.

However, just as his mind buzzed with speculations about the jade within, Huo Sining suddenly sighed heavily, glanced at her watch, and said to Su Qingqing, Bai Yishan, and the others:

”We’ve cut so many pieces and they all failed. Looks like our luck isn’t great today, and it’s getting late. Why don’t we head back?”

What?

Su Qingqing and Bai Yishan were taken aback, and so was Mr. Bai.

The group looked at each other, completely unprepared for this turn of events, each puzzled by the development.

”Ningning, what about the remaining pieces of material, are we not going to finish them?”

Su Qingqing couldn’t help but ask.

Huo Sining shrugged her shoulders and said, ”Ten bets, all fail. Didn’t you see we couldn’t extract a single good piece of jade? The rest are probably just **** as well, no point in cutting any more. Let’s go; I’m starving. Today was really unlucky—I lost two million at the casino, and here I wasted ten thousand. Just thinking about it makes me ache.”

Su Qingqing instinctively glanced at Bai Yishan and hesitantly asked, ”Should we take the remaining pieces back? Would Boss Bai agree?”

Huo Sining gave Su Qingqing a puzzled look and asked, ”Take them back? What do you want with these worthless stones? They’re just brick material. Aren’t you worried about the weight? Let’s go, they’re just a few pieces of brick material, leave them for Boss Bai to deal with. Look, my hands are all blistered.”

Saying this, Huo Sining didn’t delay any further, pulling Qibao and Wu Ya beside her as she started to walk out, with Su Qingqing and Bai Yishan, full of questions, following obediently behind, unable to voice their confusion in front of strangers.

This left Boss Bai completely bewildered.

Where was the promised High Jade, the anticipated miracle, the hidden treasure? After all the mental preparation and struggle, this was the outcome? Was this really just a joke?

Boss Bai’s face was full of embarrassment and anger, utterly helpless, watching as Huo Sining and party walked away. His lips moved a few times but no words came out.

”Uncle Bai, what about these materials?” The stone solver master, a young man nearby, looked at the few remaining brick materials Huo Sining had left behind, unsure of what to do, and couldn’t help but ask.

Mr. Bai turned his head, looked at the few brick materials, thought of how he was toyed with by that woman named Huo, and instantly felt a burst of anger, snapping irritably at the young man:

”Toss them, forget it! Why bother with what others left behind?”
