Chapter 786: Scheming From All Sides (5)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At this moment, a chubby guy jumped out, “Wait, wait, wait, before you start fighting, I heard you have a bet. One side is putting up the Azure Dragon Spear, and the other side is the Qi Gathering Ring. Is that true?!”
Huo Ying glanced at the chubby guy, confirming that he was some young master in the top family he heard of but never meet in personal, and went forward to calmly explained, “It’s true. What’s the matter?!
“Good, if it’s true. Brothers, they are playing big, so should we join in on the fun too?!” The chubby guy said excitedly to the others.
Qian Duo Duo immediately showed interest and asked, “What do we bet?!”
“Betting time!”
The chubby guy smiled, “I’ll be the bookmaker. You guys bet on who you think will win between the two of them. How about it?!”
“Good, that’s great!”
Qian Duo Duo smiled broadly, clearly enjoying such activities.
Immediately, the group started placing their bets.
But surprisingly, almost everyone bet on Huang Zhe to win.
There were only a few who bet on Zhao Yu.
“Don’t do this, do you all want to bankrupt me?!” Zhuge Ying shouted helplessly.
“Hey, Fatty Zhuge, you’ve won from us so many times before. It’s time you gave some back, right?!”
“That’s right. You agreed to be the bookmaker, so you can’t go back on your word…”
The people around immediately surrounded Zhuge Ying, looking as if they would beat him up if he dared to back out.
Seeing this, Zhuge Ying could only show a helpless expression and then adjusted the odds.
■’Miss, how about betting on Zhao Yu…” Over here, Qian Xin Yue couldn’t help but suggest when she saw Qian Duo Duo pulling out a wad of cash to bet on Huang Zhe.
Qian Duo Duo frowned and glared at Qian Xin Yue, scaring her into lowering her head immediately.
-I bet on Huang Zhe, one million. Fatty, this time I’ll win back everything you won from me before!” Qian Duo Duo sa^ fiercely.
Clearly, she didn’t care much about Qian Xin Yue’s opinion.
Her attitude toward Qian Xin Yue made Zhao Yu anger rose slightly. The “Miss” that Qian Xin Yue respected didn’t seem as perfect as she described. On the contrary, she seemed rude and didn’t treat Qian Xin Yue as a family member.
“That’s too much, too much. You can’t bet that much. Do you want to bankrupt me?!”
Zhuge Ying was almost in tears, “No, no, we can’t bet like this. This will be the end of me…”
“Hmph, Fatty Zhuge, don’t try to back out. You have to be the bookmaker. This game must go on whether you want to or not!
Qian Duo Duo said triumphantly.
The other young men and women around also chimed in, rubbing their fists as if they were ready to take action against Zhuge Ying at any moment.
Zhuge Ying could only nod helplessly.
Someone, however, didn’t believe it and shouted, “Brothers, make him sign an agreement. I’m afraid he’ll back out…
“No way!”
Before the words were finished, Zhuge Ying was the first to jump out in opposition.
The more he opposed, the more the others insisted.
In the end, under the leadership of Qian Duo Duo, Zhuge Ying signed an agreement, ensuring that he would be the bookmaker this time. Even if he couldn’t pay, his brother Zhuge Dali or even the entire Zhuge family would cover it.
“Tsk tsk, according to these odds, Fatty Zhuge is going to lose at least ten million this time…”
■■He has scammed us for more than that over the years, we must win it back…” On the stage, Zhao Yu couldn’t help but be intrigued and asked, “Can I bet on myself?!”
“No, participants cannot join in!”
Zhuge Ying quickly waved his hand.
This left Zhao Yu and Huang Zhe, across from him, both feeling regretful; they both wanted to bet on themselves to win.
For Zhao Yu, the million these people mentioned was the currency of Moon
City.
This was based on Second-tier coins currency, equivalent to one billion Black Stone coins if based on First-tier coin currency.
He knew that since his promotion, all his swindling and scheming had only garnered him goods worth less than fifty million Blackstone coins, equivalent to fifty thousand Moon coins.
And Qian Duo Duo alone had just pulled out a million.
From this, it was clear that Qian Duo Duo, as the eldest daughter of the Qian family, was indeed very wealthy.
At this moment, Qian Duo Duo was chatting away with a few girls.
“Big Sister, can we really win?!”
“Why is everyone betting on Huang Zhe?!”
“Hmph, you guys have poor information!”
“I have information that Huo Ying stole Wu Fan’s Silent Array Flag…” Qian Duo Duo said proudly
“That Zhao Yu’s strength is mediocre, relying entirely on his qi blood energy recovery ability. Once the Silent Array Flag is out, he will undoubtedly die…” They spoke without lowering their voices, so Huo Ying heard everything clearly.
At this moment, he was bewildered, wondering how such a secretive matter could be known to others?!
You should know, he hadn’t told many people, just a few close confidants like Huang Zhe.
“Big Sister, we’re going to win a lot this time…”
“Thank you, Big Sister, for helping us win money…”
“Haha, we’re all sisters, how could I let you suffer?!” Qian Duo Duo laughed proudly.
Although Qian Xin Yue was part of the family and she was also a student at Hong Wu Academy. But in reality, she could only stood on the side like a maid, unable to join the conversation.
Zhao Yu’s gaze turned cold, and he resolved to defeat Huang Zhe in a moment, making Qian Duo Duo lose a lot of money.
However, before that…
He couldn’t help but look at the chubby bookmaker.
Earlier, when signing the agreement, he had scanned through his vision and noticed that while the chubby guy seemed to resist, he was actually overjoyed inside, his body language showing happiness.
This indicated that he seemed to know he would win as least was betting on
Zhao Yu..
