Jade Factory

These vintage cars were so tacky they were practically crumbling from tackiness. Weren't they afraid of being laughed at?

But then again, anyone who could drive a car like this on the road had some status and connections. Ordinary people wouldn't dare provoke them.

Not to mention anyone else—the Old Principal seemed to own a vintage car too.

When he drove his vintage car out, who would dare laugh at him?

"Could that be the Old Principal's car?"

The thought suddenly occurred to Wang Haoran. He immediately used his X-ray Vision to check and verify it.

"What a coincidence. It really is the Old Principal—and Chu Bai is with him!"

No wonder Chu Bai had taken leave. He had come out with the Old Principal.

Where was the Old Principal taking Chu Bai? Wang Haoran was a little curious.

The vintage car and the Cullinan were heading in the same direction.

Wang Haoran checked the map. The road led entirely to factories.

"Factories... They're going to the Jade Factory!"

Wang Haoran immediately understood, his mind suddenly clear.

Chu Bai had an X-ray Vision Ability.

Based on Wang Haoran's extensive experience reading web novels, any protagonist with X-ray Vision would definitely have a Gambling Stones storyline.

Although Qingling City did not have a Gambling Stones market, that did not mean there were no rough stones in all of Qingling City.

When jade factories purchased stock, they usually bought finished jade directly and rarely bought rough stones to cut open themselves.

Rarely did not mean never.

The icy Beauty CEO Female Lead was currently at the Jade Factory, and the protagonist with X-ray Vision was about to arrive at the battlefield.

Once the protagonist used his X-ray Vision to open a few batches of rough stones, he would definitely leave this icy Beauty CEO Female Lead utterly stunned.

It was all formulaic. Fucking all formulaic.

If Wang Haoran had previously thought there was only a 90% chance that Tang Bingyun was a female lead, that chance had now risen to 100%.

Tang Bingyun was a female lead. That was confirmed.

"Drive faster. As fast as you can!" Wang Haoran immediately ordered the driver.

They were both cars, but in terms of speed, the Cullinan could leave that vintage car hundreds of blocks behind.

X-ray Vision, huh? You're not the only one who has it! If he did not intercept this opportunity, he would be unworthy of the title of great villain.

Twenty minutes later, the Cullinan sped to the entrance of the Jade Factory.

At the vintage car's speed, it would take at least forty minutes to get there.

Of course, it might take even longer.

Because Wang Haoran had scattered a few nails along the road...

Zhen Li had already informed them in advance. After Wang Haoran arrived, Tang Bingyun sent her Female Assistant to lead him into the factory.

Along the way.

"President Tang is with friends at the workshop right now and can't leave for the moment. I'll take you to the reception area first," the Female Assistant said.

"May I ask what President Tang is busy with over at the workshop?" Wang Haoran asked with a smile.

The Female Assistant was fairly ordinary-looking and rarely encountered handsome men in her daily life. How could she withstand such a handsome young man looking at her, even if he appeared to be under twenty?

Besides, this handsome man had arrived in a Cullinan.

He was handsome, wealthy, and friendly toward others.

Naturally, the Female Assistant answered every question. "The factory bought a batch of rough stones, and President Tang invited some friends over to have some fun."

Just as expected, there really were rough stones! "Could you take me to see them?"

"Of course." The Female Assistant nodded and abruptly changed directions, leading Wang Haoran toward the other side.

They had to wait anyway, so waiting at the workshop was no different.

Besides, when President Tang had instructed her to receive him, she had told her to treat him well.

He merely wanted to look at the rough stones, so the Female Assistant naturally complied.

The Female Assistant led the way ahead, and Wang Haoran followed.

The driver stood guard behind Wang Haoran.

Aside from being Wang Haoran's driver, he was also his bodyguard. Though he was not a professional, he was powerfully built and could handle one or two ordinary people without any trouble.

A few minutes later, the three arrived at the workshop.

The so-called workshop was merely a large shed built from aluminum alloy.

The shed looked temporary, intended to store rough stones for people to view.

There were around ten people in the shed at the moment, men and women, old and young.

Among them, a young beauty in a black gown stood out like a crane among chickens.

Wang Haoran could guess with his toes that she was Tang Bingyun.

Naturally, the Female Assistant could not know what Wang Haoran was thinking.

She brought Wang Haoran before Tang Bingyun.

Once he was closer, Wang Haoran assessed Tang Bingyun again.

Her looks and figure were both among the very best. All things considered: 98 points.

Xu Muyan was only worth 97 points.

But that did not mean Xu Muyan was inferior to Tang Bingyun in the slightest.

Xu Muyan was still in school, after all. She did not dress up much or wear makeup.

If Xu Muyan properly put on Makeup and Dressing Up, she could also reach 98 points.

Two Female Leads with 98 points.

Wang Haoran could not help complaining again.

That Silly Author had truly gone to great lengths for the protagonist's happiness.

While Wang Haoran was sizing Tang Bingyun up, Tang Bingyun naturally gave him a once-over as well.

The difference was that Tang Bingyun merely glanced at him a few times before immediately looking away.

That attitude was truly cold.

Wang Haoran really wanted to say, I'm a handsome guy with an off-the-charts Charm Value, okay? I'm not worth a few more looks? As expected of the icy CEO type—she really does not care about handsome men.

Seeing that her boss seemed somewhat displeased, the Female Assistant explained:

"President Tang, he said he wanted to have a look at the workshop, so I brought him over."

"He's here already, so forget it." Tang Bingyun replied, then gave Wang Haoran another indifferent glance.

She had an instinctive aversion to rich second-generation Young Masters.

If Zhen Li had come, Tang Bingyun would naturally have received her properly.

But since it was Zhen Li's son who had come, Tang Bingyun would not give him any face.

In Tang Bingyun's view, she and Zhen Li were peers, so Zhen Li's son was naturally a generation below her.

As an elder, why should she have to give face to a junior? "Hello, Miss Tang." Wang Haoran greeted her first.

"You really have no manners!" Tang Bingyun snorted coldly before reminding him, "Your mother and I address each other as sisters."

"Hello, Aunt Tang." Wang Haoran smiled.

Yet inwardly, he wanted nothing more than to press Tang Bingyun's arrogant head into the ground.

This little woman seemed to be even younger than Song Zhenyu, probably around twenty-two or twenty-three.

Yet she was making an eighteen-year-old boy call her Aunt.

That was fucking outrageous.

What was even more outrageous was that Wang Haoran's actual age was already thirty. If they really counted, he was older than Tang Bingyun.

Wang Haoran tried his best to keep smiling, but secretly thought,

I'll deal with you sooner or later! You like taking advantage of people and making them call you Aunt, huh?

When the time comes, I'll make you call me Daddy!

"Be good. I'm entertaining my friends, so I don't have time right now. Just wait," Tang Bingyun coldly tossed out.

"Okay, Aunt Tang. Go ahead with your business. I'll wait for you, but I hope you can finish before five. I have Evening Self-Study tonight, and I'm afraid I'll be late."

"Of course, if Aunt Tang can't finish before five, that's fine too. I'll come find you another day."

Wang Haoran sounded somewhat timid as he spoke, as if his words came straight from his heart. His eyes revealed innocence.

Anyone who saw him would think he was a well-behaved, good young man.

Even the Cullinan's driver was stunned.

If he had not seen Wang Haoran's conduct when taking girls to hotels, he might have believed him!

Movie Emperor Acting Skill—terrifying indeed! Hearing this, a trace of surprise appeared on Tang Bingyun's cold face.

It seemed that this rich second-generation heir before her was somewhat different from those she usually encountered.

Ding, the host has changed the impression of one of the Female Leads, Tang Bingyun, affecting the original plot's direction and gaining 100 Villain Points.
