Pei Mianman’s smile immediately froze in place. One must know that most men would get excited just to be able to say a single word to her. Even though she had mercilessly rejected the men who tried to approach her earlier, there were still many who couldn’t resist giving it a try anyway. Right now, she was taking the initiative to approach Zu An, but the latter was actually ignoring her!
Is it because I’m not charming enough, or that there’s someone more attractive than me here?
The only reason she could think of was that Zu An had gone to look for Chu Chuyan. Since the latter was his wife, she could still somewhat accept it. However, to her surprise, Zu An actually walked over to his study companion and wrapped his arm around the latter before heading to the corner to whisper with one another.
“???” Pei Mianman.
Wait a moment, could it be he doesn’t like women?
Meanwhile, Zu An was asking anxiously, “I was too busy during this period of time that I didn’t have any time to ask about it. Which casino did you bet at this time around? That’s 1,000,000 silver taels we’re talking about here! I’m going to strike it rich!”
Unexpectedly, Cheng Shouping looked at him with a tearful face as he spoke, “Young master, I have to tell you something. Please don’t get angry.”
Zu An waved his hands and laughed heartily. “Don’t worry, I’m in a good mood today! I won’t get angry.”
Cheng Shouping immediately broke out into a smile as he took out the bet paper. “I was worried that you would lose in the Clans Tournament, so I thought that it would be good if I could earn some money to console your broken soul if that happened. Thus, I secretly betted on your loss instead. I mean, now that we won the Clans Tournament, what does this bit of loss count as, right? Aren’t I sharp-witted? Ah? Young master, why are you picking up your sword?”
“I’ll bloody hack you to death!” Zu An felt that if the keyboard could gather his Rage points, it would surely be beyond 9000. How in the world did someone like Cheng Shouping manage to live to this day?
It was also during then that Sang Qian and Zheng Dan rushed over and heard those words. They immediately froze on the spot.
In the end, it turned out that it’s this idiot of a study companion who changed Zu An’s bet on his own accord, but the two of them foolishly changed it back for him?
You have successfully trolled Sang Qian for +1024 Rage!
You have successfully trolled Zheng Dan for +1024 Rage!
Zu An was in the midst of chasing Cheng Shouping when he noticed the inflow of Rage points in his system. Why are those two getting so angry for, especially Zheng Dan? Isn’t she still heads over heels for me just a moment ago?
It was then that Cheng Shouping’s delighted exclamation sounded in the air. “Eh? Why did the bet suddenly change? Did I remember wrongly? Hahaha! Young master, quick, take a look! It turns out that I betted on your victory instead!”
Cheng Shouping passed the bet paper to Zu An excitedly.
You have successfully trolled Sang Qian for +1024 Rage!
You have successfully trolled Zheng Dan for +1024 Rage!
Zu An looked at the two of them before taking the bet paper from Cheng Shouping’s hand. The bet was indeed on his victory, and the ratio was 1:100. Seeing this, he heaved a sigh of relief.
You have successfully trolled Sang Qian for +66 +66 +66…
You have successfully trolled Zheng Dan for +66 +66 +66…
Looking at the Rage points flowing in and thinking about what Cheng Shouping said earlier, a thought arose in Zu An’s mind, and he hurriedly asked, “You said you betted on my loss yesterday?”
“I didn’t.” Cheng Shouping tried to laugh it off. “Needless to say, I believed that you would win right from the start. Why would I bet on your loss?”
Like hell you believed in me!
Zu An instinctively reversed the words of the Cheng Shouping, and it came to him what had happened. So, he turned around to look at Sang Qian and Zheng Dan with a smile and said, “It looks like I have to thank the two of you then. If not for you changing the results of my bet back, I would have really been done in by this idiot of a study companion I have here!”
Having watched so many drama serials in his previous, he was aware of those little tricks involving special ink and the sort.
You have successfully trolled Sang Qian for +1024 Rage!
You have successfully trolled Zheng Dan for +1024 Rage!
However, the two of them maintained smiles on their faces as they said, “Young master Zu, I’m afraid that I don’t really get what you’re saying. We’re just here to congratulate you on your victory.”
It was only a guess from Zu An’s part, but the inflow of Rage points affirmed his guess. He shot a sharp glare at Cheng Shouping, who was looking back at him with a fawning smile.
This fellow is really untrustworthy, but his dumbness is compensated by his good luck. It would be good if I try to take advantage of that. He would be like a wild card I could use to throw my opponents off guard, similar to what happened this time around.
After all, even a sheet of toilet paper or a pile of dogshit has its own use in this world.
