The Big-Shot is Pampered after She Becomes the Villainness Chapter 145 Gambling

145 Gambling

Hearing their words, Shi Man immediately knew what was up.

In the past two days, Yuan Yi and Shi Mu had mentioned their heroic deeds when they were young in front of her. Basically, every time they caused trouble, it was to eliminate the strong and help the weak. They would not bully their cla.s.smates.

If Ji Xue had really been targeted by the two of them, it could only mean that there was something wrong with her. She was not as innocent as she appeared.

When Ji Xue heard Yuan Yi say that about her, her face immediately turned red. She stomped her feet angrily and said, “Brother Yuan Yi, don’t mention what happened when we were young. It’s not easy for us to meet. We should have a good gathering.”

“No need. We still have something on.” Yuan Yi rejected coldly and turned to look at Shi Man. The coldness on his face faded. “Manman, let’s go in and sit first.”

“Okay.” Shi Man smiled. When her eyes met Ji Xue, who was filled with intense hatred, the smile on her lips widened. She looked at her provocatively for a moment before walking into the private room accompanied by Yuan Yi and Shi Mu.

She did not know how the original host had offended Ji Xue, but no matter what the original host had done in the past, it had nothing to do with her now. As long as Ji Xue did not take the initiative to cause trouble, she would not divert her attention to deal with Ji Xue.

Ji Xue gritted her teeth in anger as she watched Yuan Yi walk into the private room with Shi Man with a smile. She took out her phone and took two photos to post online. She did not believe that Yi Zheng would not have any reaction after seeing this!

The staff brought a few waiters with nuts and red wine into the private room. Ji Xue was watching jealously when she saw the short and fat man walking back from the washroom. She hurriedly suppressed the emotions in her eyes and held that person’s arm ingratiatingly. She said coquettishly, “CEO w.a.n.g, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Why did you only come back?”

“Are you anxious? My little darling, what were you looking at just now?” Although w.a.n.g Hai had a pair of narrow eyes, his eyes were sharp. Naturally, he did not miss her expression just now and could not help but be curious about the person in the private room next door.

“I’m just envious because they ordered a lot of food.” Ji Xue gently placed her head on the man’s shoulder, looking so pitiful that it made one’s heart ache.

As expected, w.a.n.g Hai fell for her trick. He immediately pulled her into his arms and coaxed her. “Aiyo, I was negligent. How can my little darling be envious of others? What do you want to eat? Brother w.a.n.g will order it for you!”

How could Ji Xue covet those snacks? However, since she had already used this as a reason, she could only put on a show to the end. She immediately pretended to be innocent and pulled his arm to shake it gently like a child. “Thank you, Brother w.a.n.g. Brother w.a.n.g is so good to me.”

The two of them found the waiter and asked for some nuts and wine before walking back to the private room.

There was no one else in the room, so w.a.n.g Hai’s hand became restless. His large palm slid down her slender waist, and he placed his hand on her b.u.t.t lecherously. He couldn’t help but rub it hard, feeling the softness in his palm.

Ji Xue shyly pushed his hand away and used the excuse of hanging up her clothes to take off her coat and walk to the door. When she turned around, a moment of disgust flashed across her eyes.

If she had not heard that Yuan Yi would be here today, she would not have agreed to accompany this old man. It had only been a day since they met and he had already placed his fat hand on her more than once. However, she could not reject him too stiffly. Otherwise, without w.a.n.g Hai, she would definitely be chased out by the organizers.

Ji Xue endured her disgust. After hanging up the clothes, she teased w.a.n.g Hai and sat opposite him.

The auction officially began. In the private room next door, Shi Man was eating the snacks in her hand and flipping through the auction list.

There were two main highlights in this auction. One was timber, and the other was ordnance.

Shi Man had enough weapons on hand and was not too interested in the latter. Instead, she was interested in timber.

Everyone said that trading in timber was more expensive than trading in precious stones. A slash could make people rich or bankrupt.

Originally, this gameplay was only popular in Vietnam, but now, the country could smell the huge profits from such gambling. Many people in the dark market bought wood from Hainan at a high price and marketed it at such a relatively secret auction in the country.

Shi Man really wanted to try because she had taken over similar employment commissions in the past and had developed some judgment.

Yuan Yi had been carefully observing her expression. When he saw her gaze lingering on the timber page, he immediately smiled and leaned over to say softly, “Take whatever you want. I’ll pay the bill today.”

“How can that do?” Shi Mu was not short of money at all. He immediately patted his chest and took the initiative to say to Shi Man, “Sister, you can buy whatever you like. Not to mention a piece of broken wood, even if you buy everything on this list, I won’t blink!”

Shi Man looked at him in amus.e.m.e.nt and couldn’t help but tease, “Why do I want this entire book?”
