Wu Tian hadn't expected Zhao Lei to say something like that, and it piqued his curiosity.
Zhao Lei grinned and said, "Yes, he's looking for me."
"I don't think I've ever told you, but I majored in geology in college."
"And gambling on stones is closely related to geology."
"Now I'm a stone gambling expert, specializing in accompanying bosses in stone gambling, and I've made them quite a bit of money."
"If you're looking for me, I can easily pick out a couple of jade pieces for you."
Hearing Zhao Lei's words, Wu Tian couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He hadn't expected Zhao Lei to have such a skill.
But he also knew that given their relationship, Zhao Lei wouldn't help him easily, so he directly asked, "What are the conditions? You can't help me for nothing, can you?"
Zhao Lei smiled and said, "We're friends, aren't we? Friends don't talk about benefits. I definitely won't take your money."
"If you want me to help you, it's very simple. As long as you find a piece of jade, you let me slap you once. What do you think of this condition?"
Zhao Lei's words made Wu Tian pause for a moment, and then he let out a cold laugh in his heart.
This Zhao Lei was just as he expected. When a person is bad, they are always bad.
He looked at Zhao Lei and said, "Your condition is truly astonishing. Do you think I would agree to such a condition?"
Zhao Lei continued to smile, "Whether you agree or not is your business."
"But let me remind you, jade can be very profitable. If the quality is good, selling it for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands is not a problem."
"Looking at you now, your life probably isn't that great, is it?"
"If a slap can earn you so much money, don't you think it's a worthwhile deal?"
Wu Tian retorted, "Then, if I give you tens of thousands of yuan, will you slap me?"
"What do you mean?" Zhao Lei's expression immediately turned grim.
Wu Tian said coldly, "Whatever I mean, that's what I mean."
"Just tell me if you'll do it or not. You mustn't waste such a good opportunity to make money."
Zhao Lei's anger surged within him.
He gritted his teeth and said, "You're still as arrogant as ever!"
"Do you really think you're the same as when you were at the factory?"
"Let me tell you, I now make tens of thousands a month in salary and commissions from accompanying bosses in stone gambling."
"What are you, to dare compare yourself to me?"
"Don't you really think you were that great just because women liked you back then?"
"Let me tell you, I don't even look at those factory girls anymore."
"Even if she threw herself at me, I wouldn't pay attention to her!"
Wu Tian said, "Is that so? What does that have to do with me? I'm just following your logic."
"Since you think exchanging tens of thousands of yuan for a slap is a worthwhile deal, then shouldn't you agree to my condition?"
Zhao Lei was suddenly at a loss for words to refute Wu Tian.
Truth be told, if someone offered him tens of thousands of yuan to slap him, he would definitely be willing.
But in front of Wu Tian, he certainly couldn't show any sign of that.
Otherwise, where would he put his face?
After a while, he said grimly, "Wu Tian, your mouth is very sharp."
"But don't think that just by wagging your tongue, you can achieve anything."
"Let me tell you, I've now become rich through stone gambling."
"And you? You're still just a loser."
"You don't deserve to show off in front of me!"
Wu Tian said lightly, "It's just gambling on stones, acting like you're so great. If we're talking about this, you might not even be my match."
"What did you say?" Zhao Lei was amused to the point of anger.
"I think you're truly crazy, daring to challenge me in stone gambling. Do you really think stone gambling is such a simple matter?"
"I can pick them out with a hundred percent accuracy, while guys like you wouldn't be able to find a single piece of jade even if you picked ten thousand stones!"
Wu Tian continued to say lightly, "Don't speak too confidently, or you might get slapped in the face."
Zhao Lei was almost driven to death.
He had finally made something of himself, and he had planned to humiliate Wu Tian thoroughly today.
But he hadn't expected Wu Tian to not show any fear and be so arrogant towards him.
He couldn't accept this. He felt he had to crush Wu Tian under his feet to quell his anger!
So he said grimly, "Do you like to show off that much?"
"Fine, how about we have a competition to see who can find better jade?"
"I can't stand people like you, who always think everything is simple, only to end up being useless!"
Wu Tian said calmly, "Coincidentally, I can't stand people like you either, who think they can reach the heavens just by learning a skill, only to end up being arrogant and inconsiderate."
Zhao Lei nodded repeatedly, his anger rising, "Good, good! You've successfully ignited my fury, and I will absolutely show you no mercy."
"Do you dare to accept the bet I just proposed!"
Wu Tian originally didn't want to waste time with Zhao Lei here.
But he also knew that if he didn't agree, given Zhao Lei's unpleasant character, he would surely find excuses to make a scene.
Therefore, he nodded and said, "Since you insist on competing with me, then let's compete!"
Zhao Lei was delighted that Wu Tian agreed. He said, "Alright, you said it yourself. In that case, then..."
Before he could finish, a voice interrupted him: "Zhao Lei, who are you talking to?"
The speaker was a young man who, judging by his attire, seemed to be wealthy.
Upon seeing him, Zhao Lei immediately suppressed his anger.
He quickly said, "Brother Sun, you're back. I was just about to have a stone gambling competition with someone."
"Stone gambling competition?" Sun Xing asked in surprise, then curiously, "What's going on? I just went to the restroom, and you're already arguing with someone?"
Zhao Lei said, "It's nothing. I ran into someone I have a grudge against. He doesn't believe in my stone gambling skills, so he wants to compete with me, and I agreed."
"There's such a thing?" Sun Xing immediately became interested.
He looked at Wu Tian and said, "You're quite bold. Zhao Lei is a stone gambling expert. I don't think you have much skill."
"Competing with him, aren't you asking for trouble?"
Wu Tian said lightly, "Don't judge me with your own perspective, otherwise, it will only make you seem short-sighted."
"What?" Sun Xing was stunned by Wu Tian's words.
