Chapter 40 Finding a Treasure

Luo Qiao checked the time and since there was still time, she went to the waste station to see if she could get lucky and find those missing high school textbooks. Unexpectedly, the old gatekeeper still recognized her.

After entering, Luo Qiao searched for a long time but only found a thread-bound medical book and not the high school books she lacked. As she was about to leave, she tripped over a stone and almost fell.

When she steadied herself and was about to leave, she noticed a small part of the stone had a hint of green. She couldn't help but bend down to pick it up, her heartbeat quickening as she examined it closely.

Could this be the legendary raw gemstone? She wondered how it ended up here. Just then, the old gatekeeper came in looking for something and said, "Did you find what you were looking for?"

Seeing Luo Qiao holding the stone that was used to prop the door, he asked, "Girl, what do you want with that? It's just an old man's doorstop."
