When Qin Yang returned to Ruan Xinxue's apartment, he happened to see Ruan Xinxue and Ling Xiaoyu coming out.

"How come you're back after a day and have changed cars?"

Ling Xiaoyu stared at Qin Yang inside the Ferrari with a look of surprise.

"Haha, someone insisted on exchanging his Ferrari for my Audi, so of course I accepted." Qin Yang laughed.

"Who would be so silly?"

Ling Xiaoyu rolled her eyes, naturally not believing Qin Yang's nonsense.

"Oh, by the way, Qin Yang, I've got some good news for you. The jadeite rough stones have arrived at the company. When I left yesterday afternoon, more than half had been cut out, and so far, there have been ten that have increased significantly in value, including two glass types. The stone cutting workers were so excited they insisted on working overtime last night. If we go now, they should all be cut out by now."

Ruan Xinxue said excitedly, clearly shaken by the sudden increase in so many jadeite rough stones. So, the moment she saw Qin Yang, she hurried to share this good news with him.

Ling Xiaoyu looked Qin Yang up and down and secretly thought that this guy was a freak. Even though she's purchased jadeite rough stones at their best, she couldn't reach such a high success rate.

"That's good."

Qin Yang nodded and smiled.

"Why aren't you surprised at all? Do you know what those jadeites are worth? Just the ones cut out now are worth at least 150 million."

Ling Xiaoyu said, this guy really is too calm. If it were someone else hearing this number, they'd be over the moon by now. This is over a billion yuan, a sum that makes one a billionaire, a wealth that many lifelong business leaders aim for.

"Haha, I'm always lucky."

Qin Yang laughed, said a line casually, indifferent to worldly wealth despite knowing very well that many things can't be done without money.

"Let's go; we'll go to the company together." Ruan Xinxue said.

"Sure, get in the car, ladies." Qin Yang nodded and invited both ladies into the Ferrari.

Yunshui City's center, Zhuanghua Avenue.

This is Yunshui's busiest commercial zone, occupied by various large upscale shopping malls, jewelry stores, and office buildings, with high-rises packed in and constant human traffic. Owning an office here symbolizes a company's strength.

In front of a towering eighteen-story building, the blue Ferrari slowly came to a stop.

The three got out of the car, and Qin Yang looked up at the rather grand building before him.

"Qin Yang, this is the family jewelry company. The operations department, design department, PR department, and R&D department are all in this building. Let me show you around."

Ruan Xinxue pointed at the building and smiled.

"Ruan sis, looks like I've misunderstood you in the past. You're not just a rich lady; you're a super-rich lady."

Qin Yang joked, indicating that managing such a large company suggests Ruan sis's abilities are certainly impressive.

"What rich lady? The jewelry company was built by my dad, and I'm just temporarily managing it." Ruan Xinxue blushed and retorted.

Inside the first-floor lobby, the decoration was quite luxurious, with white floor tiles, a beautiful European-style chandelier, and attractive young receptionists, all indicating the company's high-end status.

"Good morning, President Ruan!"

"Good morning, Consultant Ling!"

"..."

As soon as they entered the building, the receptionists in charge greeted them in unison, as did other employees who saw Ruan Xinxue and Ling Xiaoyu, while also casting curious glances at Qin Yang.

"Morning!"

Ruan Xinxue nodded slightly towards everyone, warm but authoritative.

As the trio approached the elevator, the gossip started, because gossiping is somewhat human nature and no company is immune to it.

"Rarely see President Ruan this close to a guy."

"Guess if the guy by President Ruan's side is her boyfriend. They make a nice couple."

"Nonsense, I think he's Consultant Ling's boyfriend..."

"..."

Qin Yang's keen ears naturally picked up on this, a smile playing at the corner of his lips, while Ruan Xinxue and Ling Xiaoyu were normal people, unable to hear because of the distance and elevator's soundproofing.

"Why are you smiling so wickedly?"

Ling Xiaoyu stared at Qin Yang.

"Nothing."

Qin Yang shook his head, smiled, and suddenly fixed his gaze on the elevator buttons showing floors 1 to 18, with only the 17th floor missing.

"Hey? Ruan sis, why isn't there a 17th-floor button here?" Qin Yang asked, somewhat surprised.

"The 17th floor is the company's security level with some vaults for storing high-end jadeite and jewelry, without a direct elevator. You can transfer from the 16th floor."

"The 16th floor is the stone cutting floor; cut jadeites are immediately sent to the 17th-floor vault. Let me take you to the 16th floor, and then we'll go to the 17th floor." Ruan Xinxue explained with a smile.

Ding Dong!

The elevator stopped at the 16th floor, where two straight-standing security guards holding stun batons awaited.

"Hello, President Ruan! Hello, Consultant Ling!"

The two guards greeted Ruan Xinxue and Ling Xiaoyu.

Qin Yang glanced at the guards, noting their straight postures and restrained yet keen expressions embodying a military vibe.

"These guards are hired ex-soldiers; normally, floors 16 and 17 aren't freely accessible." Ruan Xinxue explained with a smile.

Qin Yang nodded, walked past numerous guards stationed every ten meters, and many surveillance cameras.

In front of a gate guarded by four guards, the three pushed the door open to enter.

Bzzzz!

Upon entering, the sound of stone cutting machines filled the air.

Qin Yang glanced around, noticing this hall was no less than 500 square meters, surrounded by thick soundproof wooden installations and monitoring equipment. In the hall, various models of stone cutting machines and polishing tools were neatly arranged, operated by groups of three. Additionally, several security guards patrolled the area.

"President Ruan, it's remarkable! Out of the batch of jadeite rough stones purchased, over a dozen have increased significantly, including two glass types!"

A slightly aged middle-aged man approached Ruan Xinxue with glowing yet tired eyes, filled with also an inexplicable excitement.

"Thank you for your hard work, Master Huang." Ruan Xinxue said.

"No trouble at all, it's a joy to personally cut out so many high-end materials at once." Master Huang shook his hand and laughed.

"Is everything cut out?" Ruan Xinxue asked.

"Just one last one left, the non-gamble material from Lopagen that President Ruan bid on. We wanted to wait for President Ruan to return and cut it together."

Master Huang said with a smile. From his many years of stone-cutting experience, this piece of non-gamble rough material seems promising. Surely, President Ruan would love to see a big value increase.
