Chapter 854: Chapter 854: So Angry I Cough Up Blood
Ling Xue was furious, Qiu Wen’s words were just too hurtful.
Song ii advised, "Little Gambling God, control your temper. There’s no need to take those words seriously."
Then she looked at Qiu Wen and said, "Could you be generous just once, and stop being so aggressive."
Song ii tried to offer both Qiu Wen and Ling Xue a way out, as things going sour wouldn’t be good for anyone, would it?
"I didn’t want to make a fuss, but so people are just asking for it, shouting about their bets and wanting an audience to witness them. What choice do I have?" Qiu Wen said irritably. "She acts like she’s so kind of nude model, in a rush to show off to others, thinking they are actually interested."
"What did you say? Say it again if you have the guts," Ling Xue exploded, roaring angrily.
"You heard what I said, you’re not deaf. What do you an by asking
to repeat it? Do you actually have a masochistic tendency, waiting eagerly for others to insult you so you can feel better?" Qiu Wen said defiantly.
"This is too much, too much to bear." Ling Xue, beyond furious and losing all sense, suddenly tore at her shirt and was about to yank off her bra, and next would have been her pants. She was tired of the cold treatnt and decided to fulfill her bet regardless.
"Forgive others when you can, everyone should take a step back." Song ii stopped Ling Xue’s actions.
"I’m afraid of getting a sty, I have no interest in seeing you naked," Qiu Wen turned and walked away nonchalantly.
"Bastard, you bastard, don’t walk away. You’re the one who wanted
to strip, and now you’re acting like this. What do you an by that? If you don’t explain, I’ll never let this go," Ling Xue shouted angrily.
Qiu Wen didn’t look back, leaving amid Ling Xue’s curses.
Until Qiu Wen was about to disappear from sight, Ling Xue couldn’t hold it any longer, she felt a sweetness in her throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. It was from the anger.
How could she not be angry, it was true that she initiated the provocation, but the other party tricked her and suggested the shaless bet. She had to fulfill the bet, she couldn’t just go back on her word. If she didn’t fulfill it, how could she face others? If she was unfaithful to her word, where would her dignity be?
"Are you okay? Don’t scare ," Song ii urged with concern.
Ling Xue shook her head wearily, her face unusually bitter.
"Why be so strong-headed? You don’t have to fulfill the bet, why force yourself? I know you are as brave as any man, but you must act within your ans. You only see the grievances you’ve suffered, but didn’t you go overboard challenging the Chu Group? Where did you place the Chu Group’s face? If the Chu Group hadn’t held back, who knows what the loss would be. You wanted to restore your dignity for the Gambling God’s lineage, but you must also understand the price of losing," Song ii gently advised.
"I was wrong first. I was full of confidence thinking I wouldn’t lose, but who knew I’d lose so completely," Ling Xue said pensively. Clearly, Song ii’s words had so effect, as a glimr returned to her eyes.
But in the end, Ling Xue’s next words left Song ii stunned as Ling Xue defiantly said, "I want to find out why I failed, and then I’ll find an opportunity to personally defeat Ye Fan and reclaim everything I lost."
"You’re just asking for it," Song ii said helplessly.
......
On the way out, Qiu Wen soon t up with Ye Fan and ngyao in the corridor.
"Is it settled?" ngyao asked curiously.
"She’s so angry she spat blood," Qiu Wen said awkwardly.
"Such a stubborn mule," ngyao comnted, then calmly said, "She didn’t consider what great losses we would have faced if we lost. Giving her a verbal lesson is to teach her a lesson."
"I worry that she won’t give up and will stir up more trouble," Qiu Wen said.
"I don’t underestimate her; there’s not much chaos she can cause. Even if she picks a fight, it will be upfront and honest. Compared to the dirty tricks of people like Tang Jian’an, it’s insignificant," Ye Fan said lightly.
"That’s true," Qiu Wen agreed, then said with a strange expression, "This ti the benefactor and the president worked perfectly together to utterly bewilder everyone, it’s truly satisfying."
"Everyone who needed a lesson was taught, no one was spared. However, with Ling Xue, that straightforward person, getting caught up is partly our fault for using her. Involving an innocent like Ling Xue is not quite right," ngyao said with so embarrassnt.
"How can you think that? Ling Xue was the one who provoked us first. She should be grateful for our free lesson. Besides, even if I cheated, I won fair and square, without wronging her at all. We didn’t let her lose face in public, we were already being extra lenient," Ye Fan said gently.
"True, let’s stop talking about her. We’ve been plotting and scheming for a while, it’s lunchti, let’s have a drink and take a good rest," ngyao suggested.
......
Guan Feitian was still lying on a specially made hospital bed in the hotel. One of his arms was useless, but his legs were fine so he could get out of bed. However, being pampered and spoiled, he didn’t want to move and would rather lay there to recover slowly.
He had long heard about the gambling match between Ye Fan and the Little Gambling God, so he was waiting to see the result.
"Ling Xue, that little girl, better not win. She is already well-favored in front of the master, and if she wins again, won’t she beco even more favored? I’ll end up being ignored," Guan Feitian thought. Just like Ling Xue wanted to restore the Gambling God’s lineage’s dignity, he had embarrassed his master, and if Ling Xue achieved success, all the negative impacts would fall on him.
With such expectations, he waited.
Even though he believed Ling Xue was very likely to win, he still held a sliver of hope that she would fail.
While waiting anxiously, Guo Xiong ca to visit in person.
"What’s the result?" Guan Feitian asked urgently.
Guo Xiong explained the situation.
"I knew it. That little girl Ling Xue couldn’t possibly lose. Sure enough..." Guan Feitian hadn’t reacted imdiately to Guo Xiong’s words, and suddenly he exclaid, "You said Ling Xue lost to that bastard Ye Fan, she lost."
"Yes," Guo Xiong also got his thoughts entangled by the paranoid Guan Feitian.
"How could Ling Xue lose? The na Little Gambling God stands for the Gambling God’s lineage, damn it, how could she bring disgrace to the Gambling God’s lineage?" Guan Feitian cursed angrily. Ling Xue’s defeat infuriated him imnsely, forgetting that monts ago he’d been hoping for her defeat.
Suddenly, an idea occurred to him, and he said with murderous intent, "Ling Xue’s defeat is even better. I’ll report the situation to the master. For the dignity of the Gambling God’s lineage, the master will surely be furious and send soone to help
eliminate Ye Fan and others, avenging
and Ling Xue, and reestablishing the Gambling God’s lineage’s prestige."
