Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Of course, such a good sister should be doted on

Su Wan naturally explained, "His features are too delicate, lacking the perfection of Ajue. His aura and spiritual power are certainly not as strong as Ajue’s. With Ajue around, of course, I wouldn’t fancy any other n."

Mu Xiaoge was stunned.

Damn, he actually found it quite reasonable!

Mu Xiaoge was content that his sister had such high standards.

She surely wouldn’t be led astray by any random, no-good n!

But, he seed to have forgotten that his dearly treasured, warm-hearted sister.

Had already been swept away by Commander Gu!

The two continued to walk further inside. Mu Xiaoge was clearly very familiar with this place, having been here more than once.

He patiently introduced the place to Su Wan, and then they arrived at the underground second floor, the Bare-Handed Fighting Arena.

Su Wan frowned slightly, "Bare-handed fighting, won’t there be injuries or deaths?"

Mu Xiaoge replied, "Injuries and deaths are inevitable. Everyone who cos here signs a life-and-death waiver. However, sotis there are things much worse than death."

Like poverty.

Su Wan fell silent for a mont.

She considered herself fortunate, even though she was not born into a noble family from the First Star District like Luo Jina and Pandora.

As a noble of the Third Star District, she also held the most famous Su Family Restaurant on the main planet.

Su Wan felt she was already quite lucky.

She then thought of her roommate, Sheng An.

Despite being so excellent, Sheng An had to put in a thousand tis more effort to reach Empire University.

While Su Wan only needed to exert a little effort, and Luo Jina, Pandora, and the others didn’t need to make any effort at all.

However...

Su Wan looked solemnly at the stage, "True gold will always shine."

Su Wan believed that, in the future, Sheng An’s achievents would definitely not fall short of those children from noble families!

Mu Xiaoge nodded, "Right! What’s that old saying? Sothing about kings and princes..."

"The nobles and high officials, do they have a special birthright?"

At this mont, a young boy with a baseball cap jumped onto the PK stage.

He looked to be around twelve or thirteen years old, wiry and dark, but with a pair of very bright eyes.

Su Wan felt there was sothing familiar about this child.

The boy’s opponent was a burly man nearly two ters tall.

As the man stepped on the stage, his muscles twitched.

Thinking that Su Wan was interested in the match, Mu Xiaoge also stopped.

"Xiaowan, who do you want to bet on? Oh, I shouldn’t even ask. This round is definitely going to be won by that big guy."

"When betting on soone, if that person wins, do they also get so money?"

"Right, the losing side has half of their fight money go to the Bare-Handed Fighting Arena, another half goes to the successful bettors, and the remaining tenth goes to the winning fighter."

The fighters are disadvantaged.

They are risking their lives up there on the stage.

Yet, in the end, they only get a tenth share of the profits.

Mu Xiaoge said, "Xiaowan, how much do you want to bet on that big guy? I’ve exchanged a million in chips. If that’s not enough for you, I’ll exchange so more."

It’s not easy to have a sister. Of course, he wanted to spoil her.

For Mu Xiaoge, those various cousins always knew how to stretch out their hands and ask him for Star Coins to spend.

But his sister was better.

She was polite and never took the initiative to ask him for money.

However, how could Mu Xiaoge know that Su Wan was now a little rich lady?

The amount of Star Coins in her account was beyond his imagination!

That’s not even including what Gu Jue gave to Su Wan, nor the major dividends Su Wan received as the heir to the Su Family Restaurant.

Just the annual Star Coin inco from Su Wan’s alias as the Food God far exceeded Mu Xiaoge’s own little treasury.

Yet, seeing him so eager and proactive about spending money on her, Su Wan didn’t have the heart to tell him the truth.

Su Wan simply said, "Brother, place one hundred thousand chips on that child."

"What, you want to bet on that child?"

Su Wan looked towards the stage again.

At that mont, the tall man was chasing the boy all over the arena.

He laughed wildly and willfully, resembling a predator that, upon capturing its prey, does not consu it imdiately but plays with it first.

Su Wan nodded, "Yes, I’m betting on that child to win."

She finally rembered who the boy was.

She had seen him before in a photo with her roommate Sheng An, that child was Sheng Lele, hailing from the sa orphanage in the Tenth Star District as Sister Sheng An.

At only twelve or thirteen, the boy was already working hard, striving to learn.

Not long ago, he won a free lottery cake from the Food God.

Afterward, the boy even sent a private ssage to the Food God to express his gratitude.

He was a sensible and polite child who refused to accept his fate as it was and instead tried hard to rise above it.

Most people were betting on the tall man to win.

Actually, Mu Xiaoge also felt that the man would win.

The man was a perennial victor, imnsely strong, having been observed by him before.

But if his sister said to bet on the child, then bet on the child they would!

If they lose the chips, they could just exchange for more!

As a good brother, he should not be stingy about spending money for his sister!

The skinny boy on the stage was indeed Sheng Le.

He almost got hit by his opponent just now. Although he dodged the attack, he took a fall.

Sheng Le wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

The Matron of the orphanage had fallen ill.

It made the already-struggling orphanage’s situation even more dire.

Currently, there were eighteen children in the orphanage, but twelve-year-old Sheng Le was the oldest among them.

Although Sister Sheng An regularly sent them Star Coins,

Sheng Le, concerned she would worry, had not told her about the Matron’s illness.

Additionally, Sheng Le knew that Sister Sheng An, being at Empire University, had many expenses.

Because she sent all her money to them, she hadn’t yet been able to afford her own cha...

So, upon hearing that fighting here could earn a lot of Star Coins,

much more than what he made from part-ti jobs delivering goods, selling things, and cleaning,

he thought he might not only cover the living expenses of his younger brothers and sisters,

but also be able to buy a cha for Sister Sheng An!

With that thought in mind, Sheng Le ignored the taste of fresh blood in his mouth and leaped up, grabbing onto the nearby wire sh!

The opponent laughed heartily, "What’s this, little skinny monkey, planning to show your big daddy how a monkey climbs a wall?"

"Not a monkey, an orangutan."

It wasn’t about climbing walls, but rather, a mountain crashing down!

Sheng Le lacked finesse in combat, but his years of survival experience made his movents incredibly agile.

He waited until his opponent beca winded from being led around, then suddenly attacked, jumping down from an elevated position and kicking towards the back of his adversary’s head!

"Damn! That was quick!"

Hearing the shocked voices around her, Su Wan watched the child in the arena with a burning gaze.

She had heard from Sheng An that Sheng Le was also a Beastman, whose complete Beast Transformation form was an orangutan.

It’s just that, due to congenital deficiencies and nearly dying... His parents likely thought he wouldn’t make it, and even the Beastman Human Sanatorium refused him.

The barely alive Sheng Le was abandoned at the doorstep of the orphanage.

It was a winter day with heavy snowfall, especially cold.

Sheng An was only a few years old then, intending to go out and help the Matron with the shopping.

Instead, she found Sheng Le at the door, bundled up, his whole body turning blue from the cold, barely hanging on to life.
