"Double the rent?"

Upon hearing this, Jade's pretty face turned unsightly, as it was just an old residential area with a terrible environment. The monthly rent was only a thousand, and a rent of two thousand could already get a decent place!

She had not expected Xue Jing's desire for revenge to be so intense, willing to spend more just to render her homeless!

However, finding a place in Hong Kong was very difficult, especially these affordable houses, which were extremely rare. Moreover, Jade was already out of money. If she moved out from here, she feared she might end up homeless on the streets!

Thinking of this, Jade could only say to the landlady:

"Auntie Zhang, could you give me a few days? I will look for a place within these few days, and once I find one, I will move out immediately!"

"That won't work!"

The landlady shook her head repeatedly upon hearing this:

"This lady has already paid three months' rent. If you want to continue staying here, you can offer a higher price, otherwise I can only rent this place to her!"

Hearing the landlady's words, Xue Jing's face was full of a mocking smile:

"Jade, I'm paying two thousand a month, you can offer three thousand, or even four thousand!"

While speaking, Xue Jing signaled to the man beside her, and he immediately understood, pulling out a stack of crisp bills from his bag!

"See? My boyfriend is in the jewelry business, he has plenty of money!"

Xue Jing's face was full of amusement and mockery:

"If you pay three thousand a month, then I'll pay four thousand! You pay four thousand, I'll pay five thousand! Let's see who has more money!"

Xue Jing's words were decisive, instantly delighting the landlady who hoped that Jade could also offer more money, so that she could rent out the place at a higher price!

However, Jade's face turned ashen. She knew she had no money, especially with the terrifying cost of living in Hong Kong. As a minor actress, where would she get extra money!

Seeming to realize Jade's predicament, Xue Jing, proud as a victorious peacock, glanced sideways at Ye Feng standing next to Jade, her smile growing even more mocking:

"Jade, I have a boyfriend, and don't you have one as well? Since I can make my boyfriend spend money, you can ask your boyfriend to pay too!"

While speaking, Xue Jing walked over to Ye Feng, sizing him up from head to toe, and immediately scoffed:

"Clothed completely in mainland goods, so Jade, you've got yourself a bumpkin as a boyfriend! No wonder you can't even afford the rent! Hmph!"

Xue Jing's face was full of contempt, and hearing this woman start to mock Ye Feng, Jade's pretty face turned bright red:

"It doesn't matter if you mock me, but you can't mock my Brother Ye!!!"

Jade's reaction was extremely fierce, like a ruffled mother hen, defending Ye Feng!

Seeing the usually gentle and quiet Jade care so much about Ye Feng, Xue Jing was surprised and shifted her attention to Ye Feng:

"Yo, yo, yo! Seems like you really care about this bumpkin! But a bumpkin is a bumpkin! What's wrong if I mock him? Come on, show your money if you have any! Let's see who's richer! The one without money is a loser!!!"

Xue Jing was unyielding, her words sharper than ever!

Not only her, even Xue Jing's boyfriend looked disapprovingly at Ye Feng, patting his black bag with a face full of provocation and mockery!

Seeing this, Jade trembled with anger, but she knew she simply couldn't afford such expensive rent, and she pulled Ye Feng sadly:

"Brother Ye, let's go!"

Saying this, Jade tried to pull Ye Feng away, only to find that he was standing there, motionless!

"Xiaocui, dignity is more important than money!"

Ye Feng smiled at Xiaocui, then pulled her to his side, gazing directly at Xue Jing and her companion!

"Wow! The bumpkin finally speaks! I thought you were mute!" Xue Jing sneered upon seeing this and said directly,

"What's the matter? Do you want to use money to slap my face? Come on, my face is right here, bring the money and hit me!"

Xue Jing, observing Ye Feng's attire and Xiaocui's expression, deduced that these two were out of money and thus felt incredibly bold!

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng shrugged his shoulders, smiling as he said,

"Honestly, I'd love to slap your face with money! But alas, I have no money!"

"Haha..."

At these words, Xue Jing and her boyfriend laughed so hard they bent over backwards:

"Just as expected of a bumpkin! Without money, you're just talking nonsense! Being broke means you're a loser, just accept it!"

Xue Jing's words still did not anger Ye Feng in the slightest; he simply smiled faintly, looking at the two:

"I don't have money, but someone does! Follow me, and someone else will pay to slap your face!"

Having said that, Ye Feng did not pay any further attention to them, pulling Xiaocui and heading downstairs!

Seeing this, Xue Jing and her companion were stunned, exchanging a puzzled look:

"Could it be that this kid has powerful backers?"

"Impossible! His clothes are obviously cheap mainland goods, and if he were rich, he wouldn't have tolerated this insult!" Xue Jing's boyfriend commented lightly, then pulling Xue Jing, they followed suit:

"Let's see who ends up slapping whom!"

Upon seeing the four people head downstairs, the landlord's wife was overjoyed and hurriedly followed them down!

The group of five left the apartment building, all looking towards Ye Feng, puzzled by what he intended to do!

Even Xiaocui looked at Ye Feng with confusion.

Ye Feng smiled, then took Xiaocui and headed towards the jade gambling spot!

"Damn! So this guy is betting on jade to pay back money! But this is just too stupid! Each raw stone in the gambling spot costs hundreds of thousands; if he had money, why would he need to gamble on stones?"

Xue Jing and her party were shocked and scoffed in disbelief, but their curiosity was piqued, and they eagerly followed Ye Feng and Xiaocui into the gambling spot!

As they entered, they saw various stones laid out, each stone large or small, oddly shaped, with wealthy people in suits moving continuously among them, constantly searching for their desired raw stones!

"Hey, kid, you aren't thinking of gambling on stones to make money, are you? Let me tell you, the stones here cost at least a hundred thousand, can you afford that?"

Xue Jing's boyfriend, who dealt in jewelry, was wealthy but dared not gamble on stones here, not only because of the exorbitant prices but also because of the terrifying risk that a stone with no jade at all might result in a total loss!

Gambling on stones was all about the gamble!

Ye Feng, as if he hadn't heard the man's words, continued pulling Xiaocui along, scanning the area near each stone cutting machine, looking specifically for those discarded waste stones!

At that moment, a crowd was gathered around a stone cutting machine, sighs echoing as a wealthy person's purchased raw stone revealed no jade!

Seeing the waste stones beneath that stone cutting machine, Ye Feng's eyes lit up, and he immediately approached!
