75: Buy a cruise ship

"Inside this is an antique Jade Pendant. Don't let the dust covering the box fool you; it's waiting for the fated person." The antique shop owner's eyes darted, and he spun this narrative.

"Boss, you're not being honest. Although I don't know much about antiques, my elders at home are fond of them.

I picked up a little knowledge growing up. Are you telling me this Jade Pendant is an antique?" Gao Ying took out the Jade Pendant from the box and examined it carefully.

The antique shop owner saw her professional technique and knew he had met someone knowledgeable.

He immediately plastered on a smile: "So, Little Friend, you're quite capable. Since your elders collect antiques, you should also know the rules of our trade.

Everything relies on the customer's discerning eye. To be honest, sometimes even we, who deal with antiques professionally, can be mistaken."

"How about this, Boss? I really like this item. I'll buy this, and you can gift me the Jade Pendant?" Gao Ying asked, pointing to a vase.

"Little Friend, you have sharp eyes. This is the most valuable item in our shop. If you truly buy this vase, I will give you the Jade Pendant." Seeing the vase she pointed to, the flesh on the owner's face trembled with his smile.

If this deal really goes through, he could live comfortably for three years.

"Of course, it's true. My home happens to be missing a vase, and this one suits my taste. How much is it?" That vase was a genuine antique.

Its price was around 5 million yuan. Now it depended on whether the boss was honest.

"One price, 5.1 million yuan. I genuinely want to sell it, and this is truly the lowest price." The boss looked at her sincerely.

"Boss is honest. My estimated price was similar. Let's just swipe the card." Gao Ying was satisfied with the price he quoted.

"Alright. Little Friend, do you need home delivery?" the boss asked after the card was swiped.

"That would be helpful."

Without Gao Ying needing to say anything, Yin Feng gave the villa address to the boss.

When the boss saw that the address was the lou king residence in the Liujin Villa Area, he knew these two people were not simple, and he was glad he hadn't asked for an exorbitant price earlier.

Once seated in the car, Gao Ying took out the “Tears of the Galaxy” rewarded by the System.

As expected of a giant blue diamond, it was almost as big as her two hands put together.

Facing the sunset, one could see that its interior seemed to contain an entire rotating, brilliant galaxy.

"AFeng, where do you think it would be best to put this blue diamond?" Gao Ying asked.

"Treasure Ying could buy a giant cruise ship and put it on there, how about that?"

"That works! Let's go buy one tomorrow. We can also buy some smaller yachts so it'll be convenient to visit islands."

Gao Ying said, picking up her phone to search for cruise ships.

"The Splendor! 200,000 tons, priced at 9 billion yuan. This one looks good.

And this Spectrum of the Seas. It's the same tonnage as The Splendor, but more luxurious.

Priced at 12 billion yuan. Should I just buy both?" Looking at the two cruise ships, Gao Ying liked both of them.

Since she liked them, she'd take both. They were adults; who still chooses only one?

"That's fine. Once we get to the hotel, I'll contact their head office, and we can go look at them the day after tomorrow," Yin Feng said.

They had a banquet to attend tomorrow, and Gao Ying liked sleeping in, so tomorrow was definitely out.

"I trust you with this." Gao Ying tossed her phone aside and collapsed onto the back seat.

That evening, after washing up, Gao Ying was scrolling through her phone when a video call from Xi Yutang popped up.

"Sister Ying, guess where I am?" Her cheerful voice came through as soon as the call connected.

"Hmm, aren't you in the Imperial Capital?" Gao Ying saw the airport screen on her phone, but decided to tease her anyway.

"Nope, I'm not in the Imperial Capital right now. Can you guess where I am?" Xi Yutang asked mysteriously.

"Did you go to Jiang City? What a pity I'm not in Jiang City, otherwise I would definitely invite you over." Gao Ying said with a look of regret.

"La la la, I'm in the Demon Capital! How about that? Surprise!" Xi Yutang showed her the airport screen.

"You silly girl, Little Ying already knew you were in the Demon Capital and was just playing with you." Lou Zhiwei's voice, sounding exasperated, came through the speaker.

"Ah, I covered it so well! How did it show?" Xi Yutang muttered.

"Little Ying, we also booked the Weil Hotel. See you later." Lou Zhiwei appeared in the frame and greeted her.

"Great, I'll wait for you. The bed in this Presidential Suite is big enough for us to share." Gao Ying also wanted to cuddle with the beauties.

Beauties are fragrant and soft; who wouldn't like them?

After hanging up, Gao Ying started scrolling through her phone again. When she estimated the time was right, she went out and headed downstairs.

"Little Ying'er, where are you going so late?" Fu Sheng opened his door at that moment and asked when he saw her leaving.

"Yutang and Zhiwei arrived. I'm going down to greet them. What about you?" Gao Ying pressed the elevator button.

"I got a call from Xi Yan, asking me to go down and pick them up. We can go together." As soon as they entered the elevator, Fu Sheng clung to her and laced his fingers through hers.

"Xi Yan is really a good older brother, so worried about his sister's safety."

"Praising another man in front of your boyfriend, do you think that's appropriate?" Fu Sheng kissed her on the lips, considering it a punishment.

"Why are you such a jealous person?" Gao Ying rolled her eyes at him.

They quickly reached the first floor. The elevator doors opened, and they saw the people just a few steps away.

"Sister Ying, I missed you so much!" Seeing Gao Ying, Xi Yutang threw her suitcase to Zhiwei and rushed over to give Gao Ying a big hug.

"I missed you too. Why do I feel like you've lost weight again?" Gao Ying asked.

"Really? That's great." Hearing that she looked thinner, Xi Yutang jumped up happily.

Gao Ying looked at Lou Zhiwei with a puzzled expression.

"This Little Girl has a Love-Struck Brain. I don't know what's so great about that man that made her fall in love at first sight.

Just because that man said she was fat, she started dieting to lose weight." Lou Zhiwei sighed at the thought.

"That shouldn't be right. Yutang doesn't seem like the type to be Love-Struck. Although she appears somewhat innocent, a child raised in the Xi Family couldn't be so superficial.

Something must be going on here. Have you investigated?" Gao Ying was certain something had happened to Xi Yutang.

Or perhaps that man took advantage of the situation.

"This matter is strange, and we are definitely investigating. We found some clues, and fearing Yutang might be used by that man again, we used Elder Jiang's birthday banquet as an excuse to send her away first.

At first, Yutang absolutely refused to leave the Imperial Capital, but she only relented when we brought you up."

"What secrets are you two whispering behind my back?" After her excitement subsided, Xi Yutang saw the two of them leaning in to talk and came over to ask.

"I was asking Zhiwei about your boyfriend. Come on, let's go upstairs and chat. I'm really curious what your boyfriend looks like and how he managed to charm our Yutang so much." Gao Ying pulled her hand and entered the elevator.

"Sister Ying, I'm telling you, A Cheng is really great. My heart fluttered the moment I saw him." Xi Yutang had a look of bliss when she mentioned her boyfriend.

"Fugui, when you see his photo later, help me investigate this person. Deduct the points yourself."

[Okay! I will definitely investigate that person thoroughly.]

After escorting the three girls into the room, Fu Sheng tactfully left.
