After the game, Lin Luo and Xing Mo returned to the hotel together.
After washing, Lin Luo stretched out on the bed a little tired, and couldn’t help but press his forehead with his hands. Although he deliberately reduced the number of times he used special abilities today, he still felt a faint pain in his temples.
Seeing his discomfort, Xing Mo stepped forward, sat on the edge of the bed, and put Lin Luo’s head on his knees.
Lin Luo was a little surprised and wanted to get up, but was pressed back by Xing Mo.
“Don’t move, I’ll massage it for you.”
His hands moved gently, slowly relieving Lin Luo’s headache, Lin Luo couldn’t help rubbing the back of his head into Xing Mo’s leg.
“Comfortable?” Xing Mo smiled softly.
The two people maintained this posture. Xing Mo massaged him for almost ten minutes before stopping his hands, and then pressed his warm palms to his eyes to relieve his eye fatigue.
Lin Luo whispered: “Yes, it’s okay now…”
Then he wanted to remove Xing Mo’s hand and sit up by himself.
“Wait, there is still one step left.”
So Lin Luo calmed down and waited for his next move in confusion, but Xing Mo’s two hands were still on his eyes and did not move.
Just as he opened his lips slightly and wanted to say something, he felt his lips brush against something warm and soft.
His eyes that were still covered by Xing Mo’s palm suddenly widened.
But this time the contact was very short, and separated after only one light touch.
Xing Mo removed the hand that was covering his eyes and smiled and said, “It’s okay now, good night.”
Lin Luo’s cheeks had a faint redness, and he murmured, “Good night…”
The two lay on the bed together. Lin Luo quickly fell asleep, Xing Mo silently looked at his sleeping face for a while, then dropped a soft kiss on his forehead and drew Lin Luo into his arms. After that he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Both had a good night’s sleep.
The next morning, Lin Luo woke up and opened his eyes to see Xing Mo’s broad chest.
Thinking of the kiss before going to bed last night, Lin Luo suddenly blushed. He carefully got out of Xing Mo’s arms and quietly went to wash.
Xing Mo discreetly opened his eyes. Looking at Lin Luo’s back, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Knowing Lin Luo’s shy temperament, Xing Mo didn’t mention anything about last night after getting up. After the two had breakfast together, they met with other members of the branch and took a suspended vehicle to the gambling city of Siniya.
After they arrived at the competition venue, they found that the crowd who came to watch the game had become more crowded today, and there were densely packed heads almost everywhere.
“Wow! A lot of people!” He Kun couldn’t help exclaiming.
“Today is the last day of the friendly match, so it’s also the most lively day.” Wang Xun is a person who has been here before, and he has become accustomed to this lively situation. “But today is also the most difficult day of the game. The vendors take out all the jadeite materials so that they can make a fortune on this last day. If you want to choose the jadeite materials you like I’m afraid it will be a bit difficult, so just do your best.”
At this time, Han XinYu of the Kono branch came over. His temperament was still distant, and there was no extra expression on his face, but his eyes seemed to be burning like a cluster of flames, “Lin Luo, I will definitely not lose to you again today! I will definitely show you my true strength!”
“I’ll wait and see.” Lin Luo replied with a smile, and he was also looking forward to fighting Han XinYu again.
After Han XinYu left, Wang Xun patted Lin Luo on the shoulder, “Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, you have done a good job.”
After these few days, Wang Xun valued Lin Luo more. His previous feeling was not wrong. He was certain that this young man has excellent insight and a tough personality that is not arrogant or impetuous, and his future would surely be limitless.
The dramatic reversal of yesterday’s game and Han XinYu’s final battle declaration made Lin Luo and Han XinYu the two most watched players in today’s game.
Everyone wants to know which one of them is better.
Yesterday, although Lin Luo narrowly defeated Han XinYu, most people felt that there was more luck in it. After all, Han XinYu was born in a stone gambling family and is also the younger brother of the genius Han XinYuan. The education and tempering he has undergone is by no means comparable to a fledgling newcomers such as Lin Luo.
Wang Xun obviously thinks this way too, so he specially persuaded Lin Luo a little, hoping that he would not take the previous days gains and losses too seriously so as not to have an impact on his future outlook.
“I see, thank you, President.” Lin Luo nodded and said.
The game day started quickly, and all the contestants rushed to the stone gambling booths all around the city.
Sure enough, just like what Wang Xun said, in order to meet the huge passenger flow, the jadeite merchants in the gambling market took out all the jadeite that they had down to what had not been able to sell for a while. The amount of jadeite stacked in front of each booth was almost double the amount than was seen the previous few days.
The huge flow of people and large amount of cluttered jadeite have caused some difficulties for the contestants when choosing jadeite.
Lin Luo bent over and looked around in the pile of jadeite, sweat soon oozing from his forehead, but there were not many jadeite that stuck out to him. After two hours, he still had nothing.
Those jadeite that you can tell will produce good jade at a glance will basically never sell at a low price, and a winning bet cannot be guaranteed. For those jadeite that don’t look good, it would be a waste of time to check and identify them piece by piece.
At this time, there was a burst of cheers from the Stone Sanding Square, and someone should have gambled a winning bet.
Lin Luo turned on the light brain to check the rankings. The first to win today is still Jessica from the Tomadan branch. It’s just that she chose a piece of half-cut gambling jadeite. Although the gamble increased in value, the increase was small, and only three points were obtained.
However, compared to other clubs that have gained nothing, these three points are enough to give Tomadan the lead.
Jessica’s increase in gambling made the other contestants feel the pressure and worked harder to search for suitable jadeite.
Checking the surface of the jadeite piece by piece was wasting time. Lin Luo gritted his teeth and used his special ability. He simply intuitively took a look for a piece that he felt had a good looking matrix stone, and then finally selected a piece of jadeite with a pineapple skin matrix.
The same goes for Han XinYu. He simply chose based on the color of the skin, and only looked at the jadeite with white salt sand skin and lime skin. These two kinds of matrix stones generally preform well, and since the color of the skin is lighter, it’s easier to see the markings on the matrix stone such as pine flowers and python belts.
Nevertheless, it still took Han XinYu more than three hours to select his first piece of jadeite.
The time passed by, and after four o’clock in the afternoon, Lin Luo couldn’t hold it anymore. His face turned pale, making Xing Mo feel distressed.
“Enough, don’t continue, just two pieces of jadeite are enough.” Xing Mo finally couldn’t help but stop him.
Lin Luo also knew that he had almost reached his limit, so he stopped obediently, and followed Xing Mo back to the square.
“You sit and rest. The rest of the stone will be handed over to He Kun and the others.” Xing Mo handed over the jadeite he was holding to Wang Xun, and took Lin Luo towards the bench beside him.
Anyway, the two pieces of jadeite bought by Lin Luo have been registered with his memory card, and it doesn’t matter whether Lin Luo himself opens them or not.
Just before Lin Luo sat down, his whole person suddenly disappeared, replaced by clothes scattered all over the place.
Xing Mo squatted down quickly, and out of the pile of clothes a sluggish little ocelot was drawn out.
The little ocelot looked very listless, his eyes were narrowed into slits, and his voice was very faint.
Worried about Lin Luo’s physical condition, Xing Mo took the little ocelot into his arms, and after catching Wang Xun’s attention, he prepared to take the little ocelot to the hospital.
“Wait a minute, I heard from other presidents just now that a player fainted and they have called a suspended ambulance. Why don’t you go with them to take Lin Luo to the hospital.” Wang Xun hurriedly stopped him.
“Okay, thank you.” This is undoubtedly the fastest way, and Xing Mo immediately agreed.
Not long after, a white emergency suspension vehicle flew in the distance and stopped directly in the center of the stone square.
“Who called the ambulance? Where is the patient?” A doctor in a white coat stepped off the suspended ambulance.
“Here!” Wang Xun hurriedly stepped forward and said something to the doctor, and after telling him about Lin Luo’s situation, the doctor asked Xing Mo to hold Lin Luo in the ambulance.
As soon as Xing Mo sat down, several people ran over with a fainted contestant. After the fainted contestant was carried into the car, Xing Mo and Wang Xun discovered that the person turned out to be Han XinYu.
At this time, StarNet exploded. The two most watched players appeared in bad physical conditions at the same time and were sent to the hospital. There is no need to think about why StarNet would boil.
