But sometimes, the rules would change.
For example, now.
Mu Huan’s opponent was Eliza.
“Mr. Bo, don’t worry. If she loses, I won’t let her get away with it, but I won’t let her pay a huge price either. You just have to promise to grant me a small request,” Eliza said with a smile.
She had observed Mu Huan the entire night. She saw that Mu Huan didn’t dare to play anything. She would occasionally try something out of politeness, but she would always lose. Hence, Eliza felt that Mu Huan didn’t know any of this at all and that, naturally, Mu Huan wasn’t her match.
Eliza smiled charmingly as she thought that not only would she be able to completely torture Mu Huan, she would also be able to win a request from Bo Junyan.
It was obvious that Eliza was aiming for him on purpose. This made Bo Junyan’s gaze turn cold and he was about to say something.
Mu Huan grabbed his arm and whispered in Chinese, “Hubby, are you on good terms with Eliza?”
Bo Junyan thought that she was worried that if she didn’t play, she would offend Eliza. Hence, he said, “It’s fine even if you provoked her.”
Mu Huan was instantly relieved when she heard this. She turned to look at Eliza and said in fluent and unaccented English, “There’s no need to give in to me like this. Whoever loses will be punished. However, I’ll tell you in advance that I won’t accept any other terms and conditions. The person who loses will have to lie down! If you can accept this, we’ll play. If you can’t, then please let me off!”
Mu Huan had originally disliked Eliza because of what happened to Wu Xingye. Now, in front of his wife, Eliza had made Bo Junyan agree to a small request of hers, and she was even looking at her husband with such a teasing gaze. She was courting death!
Since her husband had said that it would be fine if she taught Eliza a lesson, she wouldn’t let this great opportunity pass!
Bo Junyan: “…”
It wasn’t that she was afraid of offending Eliza, but rather, she wanted to provoke and offend her?
Gong Zeye: “…”
Little Sister-in-law, Eliza grew up gambling. You can’t even win a game of Fight the Landlord. You don’t have any luck with money. If you play with someone like her and fail, you’ll have no choice but to lie down. What are you…?
He didn’t want his sister-in-law to lose so badly, so he went up to her and whispered, “Little Sister-in-law, Eliza’s family runs a casino. She’s been dabbling in this since she was young. She’s also been rolling the dice so well tonight. It’s fine if you want to play, but just don’t play with her!”
“I’m great at rolling the dice too!” Toward the end of their game, Mu Huan and Eliza just began letting the other party guess. As such, other than being able to guess whether the combined dice roll was big or small, Mu Huan would also be able to roll it freely for the score she wanted.
Ignoring other matters, she was confident in playing dice!
Bo Junyan seemed to have thought of something and his gaze on Mu Huan darkened.
“Hubby, I really want to play this game! Although I’m not lucky and can’t win other games, I’m sure I’ll be able to do something like rolling dice!”
“Little Sister-in-law, if you lose like this, you’ll have to lie on the wheel and be spun into the air…”
“How can I lose?! She’ll definitely lose!” Mu Huan said confidently.
Gong Zeye: “…”
He did not know where his sister-in-law’s confidence was coming from.
However, he would soon find out where Mu Huan’s confidence came from.
“Mr. Bo, since your wife wants to play with me, then please let her!” Eliza did not expect Mu Huan to be such a fool. She did not want to be given a way out; instead, she actually requested that the loser would have to be spun around and not accept any other conditions! Wasn’t she courting death?
Not to mention how she didn’t seem to know anything while Eliza herself knew everything. How could Mu Huan be compared to her, who had been playing with these things since she was born?
