Two different kinds of jade— jadeite, and nephrite. Everyone knew that nephrite is the more common type of jade that had been mined in the country for years now. nephrite's colors vary from white and gray and some variations such as dark green, brown, and black. However, the most common nephrite color is white. On the other hand, jadeite had more variety of colors. While the most common color of jadeite was pale green, this type of jade could come in the color green, lavender, yellow, black, and white.
All these were common knowledge when it comes to playing this type of game.
"Now…. Just to add…." The man smiled. "We always make sure to maintain confidentiality. So, your bets are considered secret." He then looked at the people below the stage. "Ladies and gentlemen, you can also bet for someone. And if you win… we will give you the exact grams of diamonds from the pool. If you please write your bets now…. And put it in your transparent glass with your name. " He held his hand and handsome men and women wearing a black suit walked towards the stage. They stood next to each guest, a transparent glass on their hand. On top of the glass were the names of the participants.
Without waiting for the man to say anything else, most people on the stage wrote their bet, folded their paper, and put it inside the box. Even Shen Qui and Lyca put their own bets without saying anything.
"Well… now that everyone is ready… I believe we can now start opening the ores." The man motioned to the woman on his right. "Let's start with this beautiful miss. Please come here and let us open the ores. To everyone who wanted to bet to this miss' ores…. You already know what to do."
"Hey… the woman next to you is staring at you." Lyca's voice suddenly drifted towards Shen Qui's ears. He lifted an eyebrow and looked at her. The woman standing next to him was… the one with the transparent box with his name on it. These women should stay by his side until he finished opening his ores. "I don't like it," Lyca said while frowning. She hated how the woman seemed to undress Shen Qui with her eyes. What kind of woman undresses a man like that? Just the thought made her frown.
Shen Qui suddenly chuckled and leaned down to kiss her. After a long kiss, Shen Qui turned towards the woman next to him. "Stay at least two feet away from me. I don't like to get close to other people."
The woman's face reddened before she quickly lowered her head and took two steps away from Shen Qui. Seeing this, Shen Qui nodded and turned towards Lyca again. "Satisfied?" he whispered.
"You know…" Lyca gave an enchanting smile. "By now… you should know what are the things that would satisfy me."
"Aside from food and sleep?" again, his eyebrow shot up.
"Aside from food and sleep," she nodded.
"Shall I guess?"
Lyca gave a soft giggle. "Not here." She might not be able to control herself and pull him towards the bathroom. That would be…
"These two are really newbs."
The two stop talking when they heard a man's voice next to Shen Qui. "Stop flirting and look at the other people so you will learn!" Of course, the man was none other than Mr. Li. Seeing Shen Qui and Lyca flirt and ignore everything else is truly making him jealous.
Shen Qui only scoffed in response when he felt Lyca pinched his waist. That was a signal. She was telling him to kill Mr. Li. With this, Shen Qui calm down and ignored Mr. Li. In his eyes, the man is already a dead man.
"Next! Mr. Li! Ah… our beloved patron." The man in white suddenly beamed. "Please show us your ores. So far, not many people were able to get some nephrite, and until now, not one of them got jadeite. Please… allow us to open your ores." When Mr. Li heard this, he immediately went and brought his box. Then handed it to the man near the machine that could open the ores.
"Mr. Li… do you have specific requests? Would you like us to open a certain ore first?"
Mr. Li gave a friendly smile. "You know that I have been in this place for years right?"
"Right. You are indeed one of our VIP members." He uttered.
"Can you please explain the perks of being your VIP?'
"Well…" the man in white didn't hesitate. "A VIP can bet more than the others. They can also bet against some players."
"Interesting rule," Lyca uttered in a low voice.
"Well… I want to bet against that young newbie right there. I want him not to show his face in this club once he lost this game." He uttered. "And leave the girl behind."
"Mr. Li… even as a VIP member… you cannot do something like that." The man wearing white uttered. "You cannot force him to leave his woman behind. This was against the rules."
"Hmph!" Mr. Li snorted. "Of course, he knew about the rules but, he wanted to show off to Shen Qui. "But the rules didn't say anything in the case, he agrees about the bet?"
"That is indeed the truth." The man in white smiled. "Well then… if the young man agrees the company won't get involved in deals like this. So, young man… would you agree?"
"No." Shen Qui coldly said.
"Young man…"
"No." Again, he repeated his answer and started at Mr. Li. Does this man really dared challenge him about the rules? "The rules state that the host won't be able to force a player to do someone's bidding. Even if that someone is a VIP. Am I right… Mr. Li?"
Mr. Li narrowed his eyes at Shen Qui but didn't say a word to refute his words. Shen Qui's words were, in fact, right. Mr. Li couldn't force him to have a deal with him, even if he is a VIP.
