Bai Miao chuckled as he picked up the jade seal that Su Qi had placed on the coffee table and played with it.

Looking at the grand and imposing characters on it, one can only feel a sense of solemnity. Bai Miao, coming from a prestigious family, naturally has some knowledge of jade. It is clear that this piece was carved from a single piece of jade. Moreover, even with one of the handles broken, the dragon head still looks quite majestic and lifelike.

How could such a fine item possibly appear in Su Qi's room? I wonder which company made this fake; it's so realistic that she can't tell the difference.

As for why we don't doubt whether it's genuine?

Bai Miao wondered if Su Qi could still rent a house if it was genuine.

Just as she was stroking the serpentine pattern on the jade seal, a pair of slender hands took the jade seal away.

The person who arrived was Wang Zijin, who, like Bai Miao, overlooked the seemingly valuable treasure.

"What's the use of saying this?" Wang Zijin asked Bai Miao. As for why she didn't ask An Ning...

It was because An Ning was currently examining every nook and cranny of the room, trying to find some mark that Su Qi had left, and didn't have time to pay attention to them.

"I don't know, but it looks good, it looks like a real one." After Bai Miao finished speaking, the scene became silent again. For a while, there was only the sound of An Ning searching for .

With a "click" sound, Su Qi finally came out of the toilet.

Her little face was full of a victor's smile after winning the game against the system.

The three looked at each other, wondering how this girl could feel so superior just from going to the toilet with her husband?

Su Qi looked at the untouched melons on the table, somewhat puzzled. She said in a hoarse voice, "Why aren't you eating them? They're really sweet."

As she spoke, she picked up a pear and took a bite. The juice burst in her mouth, and the sweet taste filled her mouth. Su Qi squinted her eyes, enjoying it.

Seeing Su Qi's adorable expression, An Ning only wanted to tie her up in her little dark room, so she could only admire that look.

As Su Qi ate, she realized something was wrong. Where was her jade seal that she had placed on the table? Had it been stolen? After searching slowly, she soon found it on a pair of long, smooth, white legs.

The soft, obedient body stood upright on those smooth legs.

Hmm - I'm a little envious.

Ah, wait, how should I explain this? Tell the truth? Or say it's counterfeit? So many wealthy families clearly can tell it's fake!

Just as Su Qi was racking her brains, the system spoke up, "Host, just tell the truth. Just say it's the founding jade seal of Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng, the one that's been lost."

"Will it work?" Su Qi felt that the steps were too simple, and shouldn't more content be written?

For example, there was a story about an old man lying in front of his door during a heavy snowfall, and the person saved his life with two Steamed Bun. After that...

The system was still immersed in the pain and sadness of losing little money. Where did the energy it had used to deal with itself go? How did it turn into that cute little thing again after leaving the toilet?

"Host, as a college student, you have no way of obtaining the Imperial Seal. After all, it was something that our system managed to get our hands on with great difficulty!" Hearing the system's reply, Su Qi felt much more at ease.

She looked even more intently at the jade seal in Wang Zijin's arms.

Looking at Su Qi's eager little eyes, as if to say, "Why don't you ask me about this jade seal question? I can't wait any longer!"

For a moment, Wang Zijin was taken aback. What was going on? But meeting Su Qi's gaze, she felt it would be a disservice not to ask, so she asked, "Where did this jade seal come from?"

Su Qi felt that Wang Zijin was not playing by the rules. Shouldn't she normally ask if this was genuine? Then she said it was the Imperial Seal of Qin Shi Huang, the founder of the Qin Dynasty, and made a grand display in front of everyone.

If they have money, I'll sell to them and become a little rich woman. I'll buy several houses, spend my days watching dramas and playing games, collect rent at the end of each month, and live a happy and carefree life as a couch potato.

"This jade seal of mine is the one left behind by Emperor Qin Shihuang's Yingzheng reign. Look, there is the word "" engraved on it. Do you think it's domineering?"

Su Qi held the jade seal in her right hand, intending to use her left hand to point at the characters, but because she was too weak, she almost dropped the jade seal on the ground, which startled Wang Zijin, who quickly grabbed Su Qi's hand.

Everyone who saw this was startled. It would be fine if the imperial seal fell to the ground. But if it hit Su Qi's little feet, no one dared to imagine what would happen.

Wang Zijin placed the jade seal on the table and then asked, "I didn't ask you what this is just now; I asked you where it came from."

Su Qi felt a black line appear on her face. Uh, how did she end up back where she started? Then she looked at An Ning and Bai Miao, who was silently smiling to the side.

Shouldn't they be curious that their jade seal is actually from the Qin Dynasty? Why are they questioning where it came from?

Su Qi didn't know that if she had stammered and concealed the origin of the jade seal just now, the three of them might have actually believed that it was genuine.

But just now she displayed an attitude of "I bought this, it's the real deal, come and praise me!" How is it possible that a treasure hidden deep within a poor girl could appear?

Anyone with independent thinking would probably not think that way. Moreover, although the jade is fine, it is completely free of any dust. You know, the most important thing about antiques is their profound sense of history.

Therefore, the three of them didn't believe her at all, because they were certain it was a fake. What they were more concerned about was how much money Su Qi had been swindled out of.

Su Qi definitely couldn't reveal that she had a system, something so unscientific. She was afraid that if she said it, she would be arrested and put into a dark room for research.

Since that's the case, then the only option for antiques is to go to the antique market. But wait, why would I go to the antique market for no reason? It seems suspicious. I'll just say I met an old man on the street and bought some from him!

"I met an old man on the road who was buying shiitake mushrooms." After she finished speaking, she felt that the three men were looking at her shiitake mushrooms differently.

What she didn't know was that all three of them had the same thought at that moment: if an old man on the street waves to you, you might just walk by and buy something from him.

It's terrifying to think that if that old man had any intention of not kneeling, this girl is far too careless.

Does he really think he's a man?

"So how much did you spend?" Bai Miao asked at this moment.

Su Qi wanted to say it was free, but then thought it was impossible—it was an extremely valuable jade seal, how could it be given away so easily on the street? Then she remembered the Lucky Turntable, which cost 100,000 to spin, so she held up one finger.

"One thousand?" Wang Zijin asked.

Su Qi was a little puzzled. Even a jade stone this size wouldn't fetch this much money in a jade shop. Little did Su Qi know that, in the eyes of Wang Zijin and the others, this was a fake, the kind made from artificial jade.

Su Qi shook her head, looking completely matter-of-fact. "How could such a fine jade seal only be worth a thousand?"

Then he continued, "Make a bold guess."

"Then 10,000?" An Ning asked.

"No, wait, it's 100,000! You can buy the Heirloom Seal of the Realm for just 100,000 yuan! That's an absolute steal!"

Su Qi held the jade seal in her arms, and the thought that the jade seal in her arms was genuine and had been won in a free lottery filled her with happiness.

But in the eyes of the three, this scene was like a fool who would help someone count money even after being cheated.

Having also investigated Su Qi's game income, An Ning finally understood why this girl was so poor.

I ended up buying a fake.

She's so silly and cute. I'll have to give her a good talking to the day after tomorrow.

(Recently, I revised the previous chapters to make the system less harsh. Dear readers, you can flip back to those chapters. The bunny girl incident has also been adapted. This jade seal will definitely be handed over to the state in the end, after all, it is a national treasure. - Finally, thank you all for your support!)
