"Tsk."

Seeing that the stupid dog had escaped one chance, Chen Xiao clicked his tongue, but still suppressed the urge to kill the stupid dog.

Let this guy lie low for a while. As long as I keep throwing out a little bit, I'll eventually get him to come to me!

"Shang Yan, it's your turn."

"Huh? Ah—okay."

Shang Yancai snapped out of his daze at Chen Xiao's amazing technique, quickly took the dice, and looked at the pieces on the cards, becoming tense.

These guys are all formidable opponents.

I have a double-edged sword; if my pay is cut, I could very well go bankrupt!

"Gulp-"

Shang Yan swallowed nervously, took a deep breath, and then threw out the dice.

A few seconds later, her gaze suddenly became fixed on the card in front of her, and her heart jumped into her throat.

Please, please don't let it be a deduction from my pay!

"Why does this game feel like it's gradually getting scarier?"

Seeing Shang Yan's forehead covered in sweat, Qin Dan couldn't help but mutter to herself, feeling a little nervous herself.

No wonder no one comes to this spot; this game is clearly not working properly!

What did we step on this time?

"Let me see... You've spotted a little girl studying diligently and think it's a great opportunity to make money off her, so you've started to deceive her."

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze immediately turned to Qin Xuan, who was standing to the side.

Of all the players, only this one drew the card that promised to help her study hard and receive a reward. Does that mean she's finally going to be punished?!

How to deceive them?

"It's very simple. One player rolls the dice, and then Shang Yan and Qin Xuan guess the number. Whoever guesses correctly gets five thousand from the other. If neither guesses correctly, the person who guesses closest wins."

"President!"

Without even thinking, Shang Yan looked at Chen Xiao expectantly. At this moment, it would be better to summon the omnipotent president.

Since she can control the numbers rolled at will, it should be easy for her to win!

"I object! I demand that either my eldest sister or Brother Lin Qiu roll the dice!"

Qin Xuan naturally wouldn't give Shang Yan the chance to cheat, so he looked to his older sister and Lin Qiu for help.

Trying to steal my money? Dream on!

Qin Yunmo and Chen Xiao exchanged a glance, both understanding each other's thoughts, and decisively spoke up—

"Let Lin Qiu do it, that's fair."

Where's the fairness in that?!

Upon hearing that the task of rolling the dice had been handed over to Lin Qiu, Shang Yan was completely distraught.

Qin Xuan is Lin Qiu's future sister-in-law, so it goes without saying who he'd side with! This guy is practically courting death!

Upon hearing this, Qin Xuan couldn't help but smile, and his little feet under the table affectionately rubbed against Lin Qiu's thigh.

Brother-in-law, now's the time to show how close our family is! Don't let us down!

"Then I'll throw it?"

Seeing that Shang Yan was staring intently at him but did not seem to be stopping him, Lin Qiu picked up the dice.

Before he could throw it, Chen Xiao suddenly handed him an empty cup—

"Wait a minute, put the dice in and shake it."

"Hmm? That's fine."

Lin Qiu didn't pay much attention and put the dice directly into the teacup, while Shang Yan's eyes lit up when he saw this.

The president wouldn't do this for no reason; she's obviously up to something!

As expected, the president still has his own interests at heart!

Qin Yunmo stared at the teacup with a flicker in his eyes, silently placing his hand on the table without saying a word to stop it.

Even if this guy is planning some underhanded tricks, I have corresponding countermeasures!

"Let's begin."

Lin Qiu called out, then covered the mouth of the teacup with a coaster and began shaking it wildly.

I can't match Chairman Chen's superb skills, so I'll just do a token sway. As for how long I can sway, I'll leave it to fate.

"Snapped!"

The moment Lin Qiu turned the teacup upside down on the table, both Shang Yan and Qin Xuan felt a slight tremor in their hearts.

What time will it be?

Shang Yan looked at the president questioningly, but Chen Xiao remained silent, only giving Wei Hou a subtle nod before tapping the table lightly—

"Clap."

"..."

Hearing the slight thud of the dice flipping over from the teacup, Lin Qiu's eyelids twitched wildly.

Hey, is it really necessary to go this far? This should just be a fun little game between friends!

Meanwhile, Qin Yunmo also noticed Chen Xiao's little action and tapped his finger lightly as well.

"Clap."

Lin Qiu glanced at the class monitor beside him, unsure of what to say. A perfectly good board game had been marred by two freaks, making it a completely different experience!

Noticing his older sister's subtle movements, Qin Xuan almost blurted out—

"six!"

"Shang Yan, what about you?"

"..."

Shang Yan had obviously also discovered that Qin Yunmo was cheating using the same method, and he became less certain.

This situation is clearly not just a little bit!

But the moment her gaze fell upon Chen Xiao, he nodded again, indicating that she should remain as before.

Trusting the chairman, Shang Yan gritted his teeth and shouted out—

I'm betting on one!

"Is everything confirmed? You've placed a deposit... no, I mean, it's about to start."

Just as the teacup was slightly ajar, a hand reached out without warning, pressed down on Lin Qiu's hand, and then slammed the teacup back down.

Unsurprisingly, the dice inside flipped over again...

Qin Yunmo stared intently as Chen Xiao grabbed Lin Qiu's hand, his heart skipping a beat involuntarily.

"It's ready to go."

"Ah—then..."

"Snapped!"

Before Lin Qiu could even raise his hand, Qin Yunmo's hand slammed down, and the dice inside the teacup began to spin rapidly...

180 - The Fate of a Cat That Steals Fish

"Click——"

As a slight cracking sound came from inside the teacup, an eerie silence fell over the surrounding crowd.

Shang Yan and Qin Xuan stared at the teacup being held by three hands, their already tense hearts sinking.

What cracked?

"Um—can I open it now?"

Lin Qiu asked subtly, "You two have been slapping me one after another, your hands are almost numb now!"

Just now, I felt like my bones cracked along with the dice!

Noticing their own inappropriateness, Qin Yunmo and Chen Xiao quickly withdrew their hands, glaring at each other with extremely unfriendly eyes.

After all this commotion, I've lost track of time!

Seeing the two let go, Lin Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and tremblingly lifted the lid of the teacup.

Under the expectant gaze of everyone, the die, now broken in two, was exposed to the air.

"How... should this be calculated?"

Looking at the one and six points pointing upwards, Wei Ran couldn't help but gasp.

No wonder when I caused trouble in the past, Sister Xiong always said that it was good that the chairman didn't beat me to death.

I thought it was a joke, but I never expected it to be true!

In contrast, Qi Xi on the other side stared at Chen Xiao with a strange look in her eyes, her heart filled with complicated emotions.

I already thought it was unbelievable enough that such an inhuman being had Qin Yunmo and her so-called master, but this one that has appeared now is obviously one of those beings as well.

But this guy was Lin Qiu's childhood sweetheart. There was definitely no such thing back then. What exactly happened after she moved away?

Qi Xi was filled with doubt, while Qin Xuan and Qin Dan, standing to the side, stared blankly at the scene.

Someone can actually out-strike my older sister? My brother-in-law is in danger!

"There's still quite a difference..."

Ying Ziyan murmured. Compared to the six points that favored Qin Yunmo, Chen Xiao's one point was covered with many cracks, looking like it could collapse at any moment.

Even so, it's still amazing enough!

"President, where did you learn this? Tell me, I want to learn it too, and then I'll win Xianyu's bets and get everyone to bet on me."

Wei Ran asked expectantly, "If it's just simple Sanda or something, I know a little bit, but it's obviously not enough to fight the president!"

“My master warned me that it’s not convenient to disclose, the time hasn’t come yet.”

"It's not time yet?"

Qi Xi's eyes narrowed upon hearing this. Did this guy's master also know about the plan?

Didn't the research institute say only one person escaped? How come there's another? The same one?

Judging from the unfamiliar and strained relationship between Qin Yunmo and Chen Xiao, that's clearly not the case.

How much information are they still hiding over there?! They're still maintaining this blockade at a critical juncture!

"Hey—I know, President, did you fall off a cliff when you were little and then get picked up by some kind of unparalleled master? I get it, that's how it's portrayed in TV dramas!"

"..."

Chen Xiao glanced at her silently, recalling the scene when he first met his master, who had been eating and drinking recklessly in a restaurant and then didn't have enough money to pay the bill. For a moment, he hesitated whether to tell Wei Ran.

This is too damaging to my image, so I'll pass!

Seeing that Chen Xiao remained silent, Wei Ran became even more certain, feeling an intense itch in his heart.

I really want to see him!

"How about we call it a draw?"

In the end, Qin Xuan suggested that continuing the argument would be pointless and that it would be better to end things peacefully.

Shang Yan nodded in agreement. Although he wouldn't earn much, he would at least avoid the risk of losing several times his initial investment.

"Then it's my turn..."

"Beep beep beep - War God Bunny is invincible..."

Before Ying Ziyan could finish speaking, a strange telephone ringing suddenly came from somewhere, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
