Dugu Xiao Yiās eyes were fixed on the huge package of money and precious assets won by Jun Mo Xie as she walked behind him. Earlier, she had been satisfied that she had won a decent amount of two-hundred-thousand liang. However, Jun Mo Xie had then won innumerable precious treasures in the last round. A few of those treasures were so precious that their value couldnāt be determined in the market.
This created a feeling of discomfort and conflict in her heart. [How did this wastrel end-up winning so much money? And Iā¦ who have always been a dutiful daughterā¦ have earned so less.]
Dugu Xiao Yi looked around, [Is it possible to obtain a few items from Jun Mo Xieās treasure? But, it isnāt decent to ask him directly. Darn! Jun Mo Xie, why donāt you offer a few items to me yourself?]
Tang Yuan smiled from ear-to-ear; he looked like the Buddha. He walked-up to the front as fast as a tiger and said, āThird Young Master, Iām very impressed with your style. Hahahaā¦ I felt so happy to see those bastards lose everythingā¦ ummmā¦ Brother, donāt you think itās the right time for you to give the sword and accompaniment jade to me?ā
āTo give them to you?!ā Jun Xie stopped dead in his tracks. He asked in a surprised manner, āWhat are you saying? Why would I give them to you?ā
[Why?] Tang Yuan was shocked. āIs it possible that you donāt intend to give them to me?ā
āGive them to you?ā Jun Xie looked even more surprised. āI donāt think that Iām duty-bound to give anything to you. I donāt understand what you are talking about.ā
āIā¦Iā¦Iā¦ā Tang Yuan was truly in a pathetic condition. He understood that Jun Mo Xie considered these items as his own since he had won them in a bet. How could he ask him to part with such precious treasure? However, he was worried about what would happen if his father was to ask him about his possessions. He could still take care of the money problem. But, the biggest problem he was facing at present was that his assets were now in Jun Mo Xieās possessions, and he had no way to get them back.
Tang Yuan finally accepted this reality. He had understood that Jun Mo Xieās win had nothing to do with solving his problems. He shuddered as he thought of his fatherās face.
āI canāt just give them to you. I never do anything without getting something in returnā¦ neverā¦āJun Xie shook his head and replied. He then looked at Tang Yuanās depressed face and added, āBut, I can sell them to you. I can also get some benefit from this matter in that case. What do you think?ā Jun Xie held out a finger as he said.
āHahahahaā¦ youāre my genuine brotherā¦ā Tang Yuan became extremely excited. He jumped at Jun Xie and hugged him tightly. He didnāt even consider what benefits he was going to give out in this matter.
Tang Yuan didnāt even consider that a person like Jun Mo Xie wonāt be able to bear the weight of his body. Both of them fell to the ground, with Jun Xie getting squashed below Tang Yuanās body. Only the fat slabs of Tang Yuanās heavy body could be seen. Not even a single corner of Jun Xieās clothing could be seen beneath him.
Dugu Xiao Yi burst out laughing as she saw this, [These two morons are so funnyā¦]
Everyone rushed towards them, and pulled-up Tang Yuanās fat body. Jun Xie looked as if he had been choked to death. His entire body had been surrounded by multiple layers of fat; so much so that not even the air could reach him. He looked despondent. [I could never think that a mountain of a man would fall down on me today. Iāve just been to hell.]
āYou fatty, youāve made me very angry now. Youāll now have to pay more. Iāll not sell the sword and the accompaniment jade for less than one-million silver liang. But, this price is just for today. Tomorrowā¦ youāll have to pay one-and-a-half-million liang.ā Jun Xie said as he straightened his body. He felt like puking since his nose had been filled with the smell of fat.
āWhat?!ā Tang Yuan screamed.
The group came to a halt as they arrived at a crossroad.
There were Jun and Tang residences to the east, and the Dugu family residence to the west.
Suddenly, Dugu Xiao Yi felt a mysterious feeling rising in her heart as she realized that it was time to separate. She looked at Jun Xie and saw his crooked smile. [This bastard Jun Mo Xie is an infamous debauchee. Iāve always repelled him, and have beaten him up on a few occasions. But, he seems to be a very interesting person today.]
She shouted out, āJun Mo Xie, will you be coming to my grandfatherās birthday celebration?ā
Jun Xie seemed shocked, āIāll come if my family members donāt have any problem with it.ā
Dugu Xiao Yi bit her lip and asked, āWhat if your family members donāt want you to come?ā
āThen, Iāll not go.ā Jun Xie was confused. [Why would I go if my family members forbid me? So that I can get a bashingā¦?]
āBastard!ā Dugu Xiao Yi cursed in an angry manner as she heard his reply. She then rushed towards him and started to kick him. āDonāt dare to make this mistake. Otherwise, Iāll thrash you every single time I see you.ā
Jun Xie realized that he was stuck in a big problem. The ace assassin of the world had to undergo this torture by a little girl. [When will this body transform enough to meet my expectationsā¦?] He covered his face with both his hands and shouted, āIāll comeā¦ Iāll comeā¦ā
āThatās like a good boy. At least youāre smart. Take out some time to prepare a good present for my grandfather. The worth of the present mustnāt be less than what youāve won today.ā She moved her vision from himā¦ and to the huge package that was being carried by the bodyguard. She then turned away while rubbing her wrist. After that, she held her hands behind her back, lifted her chin, and walked down the road like a proud deer.
It was evident that Dugu Xiao Yi wanted the treasures won by Jun Xie. But, her attitude towards Jun Mo Xie had changed. However, she still considered him to be a debauchee.
Jun Xieās body turned cold as he saw Tang Yuanās reaction. āTang Yuan, itās not a joke. You almost got me killed this time. Do you even understand how strange todayās incidents were?ā
āWhat?! I almost got you killed?ā Tang Yuan was shocked. He could never imagine that he would hear such words from Jun Mo Xieās mouth.
