"So, Young Master Su texted me saying that some rich young man from Capital City wants to bet on horse riding and archery with him. The stake is an entire horse track, worth several billion yuan!"
He Tiantian laughed and ran outside, still talking nonstop.
"What? Worth several billion?"
By the time Ye Chen realized what was happening, He Tiantian’s figure had already disappeared.
He felt inexplicably anxious. If he remembered correctly, his unfortunate younger brother had mentioned that he took a one percent commission each time he worked for Wenyuan.
One percent of several billion was—wasn’t that several million?!
My god, such a huge amount of money was beyond what ordinary people could understand or accept.
Moreover, if there was any backsliding in the future, the Ye Family simply couldn’t afford to compensate.
This "He Thian" clearly had a talent for cooking, so why didn’t he just inherit the He Family’s recipes and Linxian Building and be a proper boss and chef?
Why did he have to do these unreliable stand-in jobs?
"He Thian" even had the nerve to say that he was just a "middleman," helping the rich young men make connections and facilitate cooperation!
Okay, although winning the bet did indeed lead to a "transaction."
But, such a "middleman" wasn’t exactly a legitimate profession.
"Ding! The male lead’s anger value +5!"
The more Ye Chen thought about it, the angrier he got.
He was no longer just embarrassed by his cheap cousin in front of his friends, but annoyed with him for "wasting talent" and not pursuing a proper career!
He Tiantian ran out of the yet-to-be-finished private restaurant. Following the address given by Su Wenyuan, she called a taxi and headed toward the horse track outside the city.
All the way there, the prompt tone in the depths of her sea of consciousness didn’t stop.
She sneakily glanced at the value—
The male lead’s anger value had reached 73 points!
The progress bar was touching, almost three-quarters complete.
Go for it, Brother male lead!
He Tiantian cheered internally, while Student Xiao D silently turned his fluffy little body away, unable to watch any longer.
Sigh, a perfectly good brother male lead, ah spit, what brother male lead, he’s the male lead!
A perfectly good male lead was almost ruined by He Tiantian.
What made Student Xiao D feel complicated was that He Tiantian was almost done with her task, and the male lead didn’t actually hate her but regarded her as the closest person!
It just shows that He Tiantian was awesome, and she seemed genuinely good at exploiting system loopholes.
He Tiantian didn’t know about the complaints deep within Student Xiao D’s core, and even if she did, she wouldn’t care.
Right now, all she wanted to do was to harvest more of the male lead’s anger value.
points were just passing; she had come all this way and was working so hard; she might as well aim for an excellent rating.
Student Xiao D: ...once again silently lit a row of candles for the male lead and prayed that in the rest of his life, he wouldn’t really be infuriated to death by his top-grade cousin!
"So, you’re He Thian? You shot a Full Ring and even defeated a former Olympic champion from Cosmic Country?"
Upon arriving at the horse track, a young man with a pretentious demeanor looked down at He Tiantian.
He Tiantian didn’t hurry to pay him any attention but first looked toward Young Master Su.
She was Young Master Su’s henchman, the golden leg; if he didn’t speak, even if the other person was impressive, she wouldn’t easily interact.
This was what a qualified little sidekick was like!
Sure enough, seeing He Tiantian acting , Su Wenyuan was very satisfied.
He coughed softly and began to introduce, "He Thian, let me introduce you. This is Second Young Master Jin from Capital City who has always loved archery—"
Before Su Wenyuan could finish introducing, Second Young Master Jin unceremoniously interrupted, "Hey, hey, I don’t play with the Recurve Bow, that thing is just a showpiece for performance."
"I only use traditional bows, the kind that can actually kill prey!"
Second Young Master Jin had quite an air of superiority, not placing even Su Wenyuan, the sole heir to the richest man in the provincial city, in his eyes.
He Tiantian glanced at Su Wenyuan out of the corner of her eye.
Sure enough, the smile in Su Wenyuan’s eyes disappeared, quickly replaced by a touch of dissatisfaction, his lips tightly pursed.
He Tiantian knew then that Second Young Master Jin, this powerful dragon that had crossed the river, intended to put pressure on Su Wenyuan, the local tyrant.
Although Su Wenyuan was indeed wary of the other’s family background, he wasn’t entirely submissive.
Otherwise, Su Wenyuan would have perfectly disguised his emotions, and not a single hint of his feelings would have shown.
Confirming Su Wenyuan’s attitude, He Tiantian then unobtrusively sized up Second Young Master Jin.
At the age of twenty-six or twenty-seven, his features betrayed a defiant and unrestrained spirit.
