Gan Yuan turned his face to watch the game, while Abel excitedly discussed the odds of winning and losing with him. Nancy sat on her chair, her gaze sweeping over Gan Yuan and landing on Abel’s profile, watching him ingratiate himself with Gan Yuan made her silently grind her teeth with rage.
Once, when Abel was younger, he had been a devoted admirer of hers, but now he not only ignored her existence completely, but his eyes also held only Gan Yuan, which instantly fueled Nancy’s jealousy again.
However, she soon smiled to herself.
Since Abel liked Gan Yuan so much, why not help him along?
She reached into her bag, pulled out her phone, and swiftly typed a message to send to her lackey, Jenny.
Jenny, who sat in a corner bored with her phone, lifted her face in confusion when she saw the message from Nancy, but then she noticed Nancy quietly giving her a look.
Jenny was just an ordinary rich second-generation, relying on Nancy to take her along to be able to enter high society. She lived and breathed by Nancy’s whims and certainly did not dare to defy her commands.
However, when it came to Gan Yuan, she hesitated somewhat.
That was Huangfu Jue’s person, and who exactly was Huangfu Jue? He was not someone she could afford to provoke.
After thinking it over, she quickly responded with a message.
"Nancy, are you sure? If the Duke finds out, we’re finished!"
Nancy glanced at her and quickly typed a line on her phone.
"If you don’t want to die then hurry up and go!"
As she sent the message, she shifted her gaze threateningly toward Jenny.
Jenny, being under her thumb and not daring to offend her, reluctantly stood up with a hardened demeanor and walked down from the stands.
Watching Jenny’s figure disappear, Nancy turned back and moved closer to Gan Yuan’s side.
"Miss Gan, who do you think will win?"
"It’s obvious, it has to be the King’s Team!" Abel declared.
"You’re wrong, my bet’s on the Wild Wolves Team!"
Abel pouted, "Absolutely not possible, the King’s Team is bound to win!"
Nancy rolled her eyes at him, "How about... we make a bet?"
"Let’s bet then!" Abel looked at Gan Yuan, "Gan, do you want to join in on the fun with us?"
"Yeah, Miss Gan, join us!" Nancy didn’t give him a chance to refuse, "It’s settled then, who do you bet will win?"
"The King’s Team, I’ll side with you, you’re sure to win!" Abel immediately tried to win over Gan Yuan.
"Alright, then I’ll choose the King’s Team!" Gan Yuan smiled, "What’s the wager?"
"Loser buys dinner!" Abel said.
In that case, no matter who lost, he would have a chance to have dinner with Gan Yuan.
"I agree!" Nancy readily echoed.
While this was going on, Jenny had already arrived holding a tray and carrying several drinks.
"Oh, perfect timing!" Nancy stood up, took the drinks from the tray, her gaze falling on Jenny’s face, to which Jenny slyly gestured towards the drink on the far right.
Nancy understood immediately, took the other two drinks and clearly offered them to Abel and Gan Yuan, then took the one on the far right into her hands.
"Here’s... to our bet, cheers!"
Abel reached for his drink, Gan Yuan glanced at the beverage in his hand, and also smiling, raised it to gently clink with the other two.
All three of them brought their cups to their lips at the same time, Abel downed almost half of his in one gulp, and Gan Yuan just took a small sip.
"Don’t you like soda?" Nancy, setting her cup on the table, feigned concern, "How about I get Jenny to fetch you something else?"
