âIâve brought her granny over. With her around, she wonât be able to escape.â Such a heartless little girl actually threatened him.
Gong Zeye: â...â
What kind of stupid move was this?
It wasnât enough to threaten her friends, but he even threatened her granny again!
God was indeed fair. He had given his Brother Bo such a good head and appearance, but in the end, he had given him a zero EQ.
âBrother Bo, you canât do this...â
âI very well can.â Bo Junyan sneered.
âYou canât, Brother Bo. Letâs be honest. How many years can her granny live? If you do this and her granny dies, wonât you lose control of her? Itâs most important to keep a lookout for the future!â His Brother Bo should know this!
âThere are those two very important friends of hers.â Bo Junyan thought about what Li Meng and Wu Xingye knew that he didnât. His gaze became colder.
Gong Zeye said, âBrother Bo, youâll be forcing her to stay for the rest of her life while suffering every day of it...â
âAs long as sheâs by my side.â
At the thought of Mu Huan being so heartless, Bo Junyanâs expression darkened.
Gong Zeye: â...â
What on earth had happened? That day, his Brother Bo had wanted to lower his pride to salvage the situation. But now, no matter what methods he had to use, he felt he just had to keep her here.
âBrother Bo, donât you want her to go back to being your adorable little cutie from the past and make her sweetly call you âHubbyâ? Go there and hug her. Do you want her to keep angering you and even make her hate you in the end?â Gong Zeye looked at Bo Junyan.
Bo Junyan did not speak, but his eyes darkened.
âBrother Bo, I believe you can also tell that Sis-in-law likes you. Iâm telling you, you canât do this...â Gong Zeye felt that the burden on him was very heavy. This matter had to be handled by him.
Bo Junyan knew that this wouldnât work, but sometimes, there were some things that couldnât be avoided just because one knew they couldnât.
No one could control their feelings.
Since he was injured, he could only do as heâd been taught.
...
The cold war between Mu Huan and Bo Junyan continued.
If it were in the past, Mu Huan would definitely apologize, act coquettishly, and beg for mercy. But now, she wouldnât.
In the past, she had only wanted to leave and never wanted to stay long with him.
Now that they had fallen in love and she wanted to go on being together, the way they lived would have to change. She hoped that their status in their marriage would be equal and that everything would be discussed. It would not be based on orders or threats.
For example, in a situation like this, once he became angry, on top of threatening her, he even took away her money, leaving her in a difficult position.
She knew that he could not bear to lose her like this, and it was only because he was injured and furious that he did this.
He was used to being high and mighty. This was his usual way of dealing with things.
But even if she knew and she could understand him, she didnât want this.
This wasnât the way for married people to be.
However, Mu Huan knew that equality was not given by others. The most important thing was that she had to work hard. She had to have a certain level of strength.
And what was strength? It was money! In this world, only money was the boss!
Hence...
On Saturday, she went to look for Li Meng early in the morning. Then, she pretended to stay at Li Mengâs house and not go out. In fact, she escaped through the window with Li Meng and shook off the bodyguards Bo Junyan had sent to follow her. Then, she gathered Wu Xingye to prepare for a competition.
The competition they were going to participate in was of a higher level. The final winner would get a prize of ten million.
With this ten million yuan, she could do a lot of things.
As she was putting on makeup in the car, Mu Huan couldnât help but sigh. âLife is really full of ups and downs. I went from a poor woman to a millionaire in an instant, and now, Iâve gone from being a millionaire to being poor again.â
âAs if thereâs no such thing as acting coquettishly. If you canât solve a problem after a nightâs sleep, then do it twice, thrice, four times, five times. If you still canât do it, keep trying until you can. Soon, youâll be a billionaire again!â Li Meng said.
âDo you think Iâm that kind of person?â Mu Huan snorted.
âDidnât you used to be one?â Li Meng thought to herself.
âIn the past, I didnât plan to stay with him for a long time. Now, isnât this love? Iâm planning to stay with him for a long time and has a long relationship in mind. Between us two, we have to be balanced. He canât be the only one who has the final say. If he wants me in his future, why would he threaten me with othersâ lives from time to time?â Mu Huan rolled her eyes at her.
Li Meng thought about it. âThatâs true. Itâs not right to use your weakness to threaten you!â
âThatâs how it is. Stop speaking up for him...â Wu Xingye said.
âArenât you speaking up for him? Did you brag about the two of them? Are you going to compensate Xiao Huan for such a good husband?â Li Meng rolled her eyes at him.
Wu Xingye: â...â
âHow many people will be participating in this competition?â Mu Huan changed the topic.
âMore than 800 people, and theyâre all experts from all over the world.â The temptation of ten million yuan was huge.
âThe mahjong game is a little slow. If we want to win the championship against over 800 people, weâll have to fight until nighttime.â Mu Huan calculated the time.
âMore or less. It should end around 10 PM.â
âLetâs go in and take a look at the situation. Weâll see how we can win the championship as soon as possible.â Although she and Bo Junyan were in a cold war, she had to go home to sleep every day. If she didnât go back after ten, Bo Junyan would definitely look for her. Sheâd better hurry up.
âIf we want to be fast, we have to eliminate people quickly. However, this isnât good. After all, there are four people in a table. Furthermore, this competition is randomized. Itâs impossible for the three of us to team up and win consecutively and quickly eliminate people.â
Just as Mu Huan was about to say something...
Bo Junyan called.
âI have something on tonight, so Iâll be back late. If you want to stay over at Li Mengâs place tonight, you can stay at her place.â Actually, even without Gong Zeye saying anything, Bo Junyan, who had calmed down, knew that he could not continue being stubborn. Hence, he wanted to ease the relationship between the two of them.
Knowing that she liked to be with Li Meng, he would never make her stay in the house and let her stay over at Li Mengâs house.
He wanted her to know that he wanted to ease his heart.
Let her calm down a little.
Who knew...
Mu Huan said happily, âAlright!â
If she didnât have to go back, she wouldnât have to be so anxious. How was she going to find an excuse to explain that?!
She really got what she wanted!
Bo Junyan: â...â
He was silent for a while, waiting for Mu Huan to say something else. But she was fine. After that, she did not speak again.
In fact, Mu Huan was also waiting for Bo Junyan to speak. After waiting for a while, she asked, âBo Junyan, is there anything else?â
What did she mean by that?
âNo.â Previously, Bo Junyan felt that his wife was insincere and wanted her to call his name. Now that she called him by his full name and she was no longer the tender and delicate wife she used to be, he was even more unhappy.
âNo? Then Iâll hang up.â With that, Mu Huan hung up.
The competition was about to start, and she had yet to finish her makeup.
Bo Junyan looked at the call that was hung up and tugged at his tie in frustration.
PA Wang, who had come in to report a matter, shuddered and felt that something was amiss.
It turned out that he was right. Ten minutes later, he was being criticized harshly.
...
The competition this time was held on a high-class cruise.
The competition was of a high level, and the participants were all experts.
Mu Huan disguised herself as a young and handsome man, Li Meng disguised herself as a sexy beauty, and Wu Xingye dressed up as a handsome man with a completely different style.
Looking at Li Meng, who was intimately holding Mu Huanâs arm, Wu Xingye said disdainfully, âHow many cushions did you use to create this effect?â
âNone of your business!â Li Meng glared at him.
Wu Xingye could not help but take another look before looking away.
To participate in the competition here, one only needed to check if there were any dangerous items on the body, and there was no need for identification.
When they arrived, they were already the last batch of people to board the ship.
One had to pay a ticket fee to participate in this competition. One thousand per person.
Wu Xingye looked at Mu Huan and said, âI know youâre poor. Iâll take the tickets.â
When Mu Huan thought about how the hundreds of millions she had received had been taken before it could even warm up and she was poor again, she felt a sharp pain in her heart.
This relationship was really like she was accompanying a tiger!
When he was happy, he could dote on her to the heavens and give her hundreds of millions, but when he was unhappy, not only would he threaten her, but he would also dig out her heart and make her poor!
Mu Huan had always been short of money. Hence, she loved money.
Money was like a piece of meat in her pocket. It would hurt to dig at it a little, let alone take it away.
âThank you, Brother Xingye...â Mu Huan said coyly on purpose.
With such a manâs face on her, Wu Xingye could not help but shiver when he saw her being so delicate to him.
Not long after Mu Huan and the rest entered, the competition started.
As the machine randomly assigned them, just as Wu Xingye had said, not only did the three of them not get together, but they were also very far away from each other in the southwest.
Wu Xingye was the grandson of the Gambling God and had received his grandfatherâs teachings since he was young. He was very proficient in all sorts of entertainment endeavors. When they were free, he would play mahjong with Mu Huan and others.
Among the three of them, Wu Xingye and Mu Huan were on par with each other. Although Li Meng was more vulnerable than the two of them, compared to most others, she was still considered someone who had inherited some skills and was stronger.
Mu Huan and Wu Xingye had predicted that she would at least enter the top 50.
However, if one didnât cheat in mahjong, the most important thing was still luck.
Hence, they were only guessing.
Mu Huan was only trying her best to fight for the championship. She might not necessarily win it.
Not long after they sat down at their respective tables, Mu Huan heard a familiar voice. She turned around and saw Long Feiting sitting on the table next to her.
And he was talking to Gu Chenyi, who was sitting next to him.
Mu Huan: â...â
They were here to vie for the championship because they wanted this ten million yuan. What were these two rich second-generation heirs doing here?
As if sensing her gaze, Long Feiting looked in her direction. Mu Huan calmly shifted her gaze away.
She was very confident in her makeup skills. He wouldnât be able to recognize her right now.
Indeed, Long Feiting retracted his gaze after glancing at her.
Soon, the match began.
The first round was an elimination match. Those with less than 500 chips were directly eliminated.
Mu Huanâs luck at the start of the game was pretty good. She won three rounds in a row, and she even won a lot. She directly advanced.
More than a hundred people were eliminated in this round.
Long Feiting, Gu Chenyi, Wu Xingye, and Li Meng had also advanced.
While waiting for the second match to start, Li Meng and Wu Xingye also saw Gu Chenyi and Long Feiting.
âWhy are they here? Are they people who lack money?â Li Meng whispered.
âI donât know.â
Li Meng suddenly thought of something. âCould it be that the two of them came because they knew you were here?â
âNo. Long Feiting looked in my direction just now, but he didnât recognize me.â
âHeâs probably fed up and bored,â Wu Xingye said.
Instantly, Mu Huan and Li Meng looked at him and felt that what he said was very possible!
After all, those two were very idle.
âNo matter what, we have to be careful. Donât let them find out about us and cause more trouble,â Mu Huan said.
Now that she and Bo Junyan were in the midst of a storm, she had to be more careful.
âYes.â
In the second round, those with less than a thousand chips were eliminated.
There were still three rounds.
Mu Huan felt that her luck today was as good as cheating. With her tiles, she did not need her superb skills at all.
She had won three rounds in a row, and she had even won an explosive match.
More than 200 people were eliminated in this round.
Mu Huanâs cheating luck made her the person with the most bargaining chips in her hands. When the advancement list came out, she immediately received everyoneâs attention.
âThat person is quite formidable.â Gu Chenyi looked in Mu Huanâs direction.
Long Feiting snorted and said, âHe was just lucky.â
âLuck is also a skill.â Gu Chenyi rolled his eyes at him.
âBut donât you find him a little familiar?â The more Long Feiting looked at Mu Huan, the more he found her familiar.
Gu Chenyi took a closer look. âHe does look a little familiar.â
âHe has cosmetic contact lenses.â
âHeâs too short for a man.â
âHeâs too skinny.â
Just as the two of them were getting closer to observe, the third match began.
Coincidentally, Mu Huan, Gu Chenyi, and Long Feiting were allocated the same table.
Mu Huan: â...â
What the f*ck...
Gu Chenyi and Long Feiting looked at each other. Seriously, whatever they thought would come true!
Just as they were about to take a closer look at this person, he was sent to their table!
Mu Huan felt that she was rather unlucky to have met the two of them. Indeed...
These tiles of hers were really lousy! They were the kind that not even the gods could save.
Now, she could only pray that her deskmateâs tiles were not good. This way, with all her chips, she should be fine.
Besides the three of them, there was also a middle-aged lady at their table.
When the middle-aged lady saw the three handsome men playing cards with her, she was overjoyed. She looked left and right and felt that all of them were extremely handsome. Hence, she winked at them, giving each of them a look that said, âIf you eat with me tonight, Iâll go easy on you and let you win.â
Long Feiting: â...â
F*ck! What the f*ck! What the f*ck?!
