"Ah, what a pity," Ling stared at the shattered cup of milk tea.
Han Shuangfu had just spoken to Ling. Seeing him move so fast, he was very surprised. This was also the first time he had seen Ling in action. All along, he thought Ling was weak and only Liam or Su Wen Ai had the strength.
Although he and Bai Xiaoqi had already guessed Ling's identity, he was still shocked by this. However, Han Shuangfu quickly hid her shock, "Sister-in-law, don't you care about her?"
Ling shrugged, "Well, not intentionally."
The elder was still dumbfounded at seeing this scene.
"Imprison him" Zhuo Xia said.
At that moment, the elder had just regained his senses. However, he could not take his mind off when he saw the straw in the man's hand. All this time he thought Ling was just an arrogant young man. He always thought Ling was a frog in a shell.
Now he realized he was the one like that.
Even he arrogantly warned Ling. If he remembered that, he wanted to laugh at him.
The elders can't stand to be here much longer. He went to the prison and took the man in black.

Upstairs.
Actually Han Shuangfu wanted to tell Ling about Mei Mengyi. Previously, Mei Mengyi met the Han Family secretly. With Mei Mengyi's support, the pressure from the Potion God Association would not be so much for her family.
This was also the reason Han Shuangfu was looking for Ling. He was afraid that Ling would have trouble because he had just come here. Of course, there will be many who do not like him. A real example is the elder. In addition, there was also Old Madam who had been interfering with Zhuo Xia's life all along.
So, Han Shuangfu and Bai Xiaoqi discussed this. They want to help him.
However, this unexpected event happened. If Ling was really strong, he wouldn't have to say this. It would only embarrass himself. So he just sat on the couch enjoying his wine.
So did Zhuo Ai and the other two.
"Miss Han, you know Young Master Chen. Is he really from Shadow City?" zhuo Ai asked in a soft voice.
"Yes," Han Shuangfu replied. He never investigated Ling because he was his brother-in-law. Thinking of this, Han Shuangfu sent a message to Chairman Dai.
As Han Shuangfu was deep in thought, Chairman Dai replied to the message.
[Someone at level 8 dares to offend him? He must be crazy!]
It seems that Chairman Dai was not surprised at all.
"Have no more thought. Isn't it good that Young Master Chen is strong? Then I'll meet him. Oh, Zhuo Nan, remind Young Miss the stone gambling event will be held tomorrow at 9. Don't let him forget" Zhuo Ai said.
Zhuo Nan nodded, but Han Shuangfu was surprised, "Sister Xia will actually come to such an event?"
He also knew that Zhuo Xia had always been serious, had never attended an event like this.
"That's because Young Master Chen wants to find the best stone for Young Miss," Zhuo Kira replied.
"Ah, Miss Han, can Young Master Chen gamble?" zhuo Kira asked remembering this matter.
"I don't know, but I don't think so. Because Shadow City is different from where we are," Han Shuangfu replied.
Zhuo Ai was disappointed to hear this. Now he had to work even harder to teach Ling.
Right now, Han Shuangfu received a call from Bai Xiaoqi, "You don't need to come here now. Come tomorrow to the Cheng Family stone gambling event. Big Brother Xia and Sister-in-law will also be there. Brother-in-law will come to gamble."
Bai Xiaoqi was startled for a moment, but after that she cursed him.
"But, don't be surprised by the other side of Brother-in-law. Don't underestimate it anymore," continued Han Shuangfu.
"Do I dare? He had enough of me to faint with a bottle of high-level potions," Bai Xiaoqi smiled bitterly.
"It's not about potions anymore, but power," Han Shuangfu replied.
Strength? Ling was in the Star Academy. Since Bai Xiaoqi was also a school there, he considered Ling's strength to be ordinary. So, he considered all Han Shuangfu's words to be only joking.
Bai Xiaoqi walked into the main hall with a cell phone in hand. There, Madam and Master Bai were chatting with Chen Kai.
"Kai, the Chen Family is very lucky. I heard that Family Head Chen is in close contact with the Gao Family. This time you can definitely have that weapon," said Master Bai.
Bai Chengsi knew that Chen Kai did not want to discuss this, because it was related to Ling. He immediately changed the topic, "I heard that Cheng Rui will be the representative of the Cheng Family tomorrow."
"Cheng Rui's? I heard he's also a rock gambling expert. He said there would be a level ten stone this year. No wonder he intervened," Bai Xiaoqi replied.
"Why indeed? Cheng Rui will still not be able to defeat Chen Kai," Bai Chengsi defended.
"really. He won the event two years in a row and became the king of gambling. He should be able to win this year as well" said Master Bai agreed.
Chen Kai looked down. He hides his smug smile. Indeed there is nothing that can be compared to him in terms of stone gambling.
*
On the night before the rock gambling event began, everyone was agitated. It's not just about stone gambling, but tomorrow is also the announcement of which family Gao Feng chooses who can get weapons.
At dinner, Zhuo Kira and the others took turns to comfort Ling and told her not to grieve whatever was going to happen tomorrow.
"I believe you," Zhuo Xia replied.
"Just calm down, I won't let you down" Ling said with a satisfied smile.
The three of them looked at each other. It seemed like there was indeed a problem with Zhuo Xia.
When midnight arrived, Zhuo Ai met Ling. He thought it looked like Ling would read the book all night. But he was wrong.
"Young Master, what are you doing?" ask Zhuo Ai.
"none. Just playfully," Ling replied as she typed on her laptop keyboard.
Zhuo Ai looked at Ling's laptop. There was a 3-dimensional image that he did not understand. But ... why does it look like the weapon Han Shuangfu used this morning?
Zhuo Ai shook her head. He thought Ling couldn't possibly know about it.
He doesn't think about it anymore.
*
Finally tomorrow comes.
The rock gambling event that everyone was waiting for now began. The event took place at the special headquarters prepared by the Cheng Family. To enter, you must present your business card and invitation.
*
Cheng Rui's study room.
He took a flash containing information about Ling. He immediately saw her using a computer. At first he was ordinary, but the longer, the shock was clearly visible on his face.
Cheng Rui turned off the computer and said, "Find Chen Ling."
*
Ling and the others got out of the car. At the moment Ling was looking here so crowded. He asked Zhuo Ai, "Did all the overseas people come here?"
"Yes," Zhuo Ai replied.
"It wouldn't be a shame if I couldn't get a good rock?" Ling sighed. He was afraid that his jade pendant was not working so he continued to flip through the stone gambling book. However, he realized that the science of stone gambling could not be obtained just by reading, but practiced. Because of that, many stone experts were old. So when the young Chen Kai appeared as a stone expert, many people praised him.
Ling continued to sigh. Finally he understood why Han Shuangfu and the others continued to comfort him.
"Young Master, you don't have to participate. We can just watch" Zhuo Ai said.
"No. I made a promise to Xia" Ling replied. He touched the jade pendant on his neck.
Because Ling insisted, they couldn't do anything.
They arrived at the door. Zhuo Xia immediately showed his invitation. Seeing this, the guard immediately behaved respectfully, "Miss Zhuo, please come in."
"Miss Zhuo, our Old Master knows that Miss is here. He wants to discuss something with you" the Cheng Family butler said respectfully.
Zhuo Xia glanced at Ling to ask her opinion.
The butler was a little surprised. However, he felt no stranger to Ling.
"Go away. I'll just walk around" Ling said with a smile.
"Alright, I'll be right back," Zhuo Xia said. He followed the butler and went to the backyard.
"Sister-in-law, I'll accompany you around. I've come here so I know this place a little bit" Han Shuangfu said. But the truth was, he was afraid that someone would have a problem with Ling.
Meanwhile the Bai Family arrived.
Bai Chengsi followed beside Bai Xiaoqi, "Sister, I didn't expect you to actually come."
"I just want to see someone," Bai Xiaoqi replied gently.
"alright. I will accompany Chen Kai to choose a stone," Bai Chengsi said. He did not ask who his brother was looking for.
However, before Bai Chengsi had time to leave, he saw a group of people. They were led by Ling and Han Shuangfu. The two people chatting and laughing looked very familiar.
Bai Chengsi stopped.
Chen Kai also looked in the same direction. When he saw Ling, he frowned.
Chen Kai's friend knew he didn't like Ling. He said, "Kai, is a person like Chen Ling the taste of Miss Han? He's really close to someone like that?"
Without him noticing, Bai Xiaoqi's face was cold as she finished speaking. Only Bai Chengsi knew his brother was familiar with Ling.
However, upon seeing Bai Xiaoqi's gaze towards Ling, Chen Kai's friend thought he liked Ling. So he explained excitedly, "Miss, it seems like you don't know yet. Chen Ling was a new disciple in the Star Academy and came from the Chen Family branch family. Unfortunately he was weak, but very arrogant. Even he dared to deal with the Zhuo Family of the Potion God Association. He also met with the law enforcement team and he ended up being locked up. Fortunately he managed to curry favor with the Gao Family so he was still able to survive. Otherwise he can't get out alive right now. Well actually it's a natural problem because he's from across the island. Of course our level is different from her."
He continued to speak without noticing Bai Xiaoqi's sharp expression.
After he finished speaking, he realized the state of silence. No one supported him, nor did Bai Chengsi. The young man was surprised.
However, before he spoke again, a cold voice rang out not far from there, "The Zhuo Family?"
