Rebirth Must Be Happy

"Bet me, wasn't she destined to lose from the very beginning?"

Xu Jinhuan couldn't help but laugh out loud, glancing at Chen Xingzhu, "What, didn't you think the box office would exceed one billion at the beginning?"

"Since you knew you would definitely win, why did you agree in the first place?"

Chen Xingzhu stared at Xu Jinhuan, a half-smile playing on her lips. "You want him to call you husband?"

"Uh……"

Xu Jinhuan felt a little guilty, not because he actually had that thought, but because he could basically confirm Chen Xingzhu's abnormality; the girl was clearly acting strangely tonight.

He quickly replied, "How could that be? I was just teaching her a lesson. Don't make these kinds of bets so easily."

Chen Xingruo seized the opportunity and hurriedly said, "So you mean you won't let me shout?"

Xu Jinhuan said, "Then let's change the bet. Didn't you bet with Zhizhi that you would serve tea and water? You can serve tea and water for me too."

"I do not!"

Chen Xingruo was quite principled, and with a stiff neck, she said, "If you're so capable, then make me call you 'husband,' but I'll never serve you tea or water!"

Xu Jinhuan never expected her to be so shameless, and said angrily, "Don't pretend to be innocent after getting the benefit. I've already let you off the hook!"

"It's not like I begged you to let me off the hook."

Chen Xingruo, feeling emboldened, became even smug, saying, "If you're so capable, then make me call you husband. I don't care anyway; my sister won't hit me."

She paused for a moment, then added, "Besides, even if my sister breaks up with you, she can't sever our sisterly relationship..."

Having probably realized he was now in an invincible position, he snorted and became arrogant: "Do you want to shout? If you want me to shout, I'll shout right now."

Chen Xingzhu turned to look at her and said softly, "You really want to shout?"

"Uh……"

Chen Xingruo didn't expect her sister to ask that, and she paused for a moment, blinking blankly, "Uh..."

"Hahaha!"

This time, Xu Jinhuan was smug, but he only laughed twice before Chen Xingzhu pressed him for an answer: "Are you smug about her wanting to call you 'husband'?"

"No no!"

Xu Jinhuan was a seasoned veteran, far more perceptive than Chen Xingruo. Without hesitation, she replied, "She didn't mean to call me 'husband,' and I'm not smug at all! It's enough that you're the one calling me that..."

Chen Xingruo deliberately exaggerated, "Ha! Sis, you called him husband?"

Chen Xingzhu wasn't shy at all. She glanced back at her sister and said, "Your acting is too exaggerated. You can't be a lead actress like that."

"Tch, not worth it!"

Chen Xingruo snorted again, "Besides, it's enough that I'm good-looking. If all else fails, I can just be a pretty face."

Chen Xingzhu probably remembered what her sister had just said, glared at her sister, and then, seeing that the car had arrived at the entrance of the villa area, said nothing more.

Xu Jinhuan quickly parked the car at the entrance. The two sisters got out of the car, and Chen Xingzhu held onto the car door and said, "Take care on your way back."

"Okay, let's go back quickly."

Xu Jinhuan nodded, watched the two sisters leave their house, and then drove home.

"Sister!" Chen Xingruo waited for her sister at the door, then leaned over affectionately and hugged her sister's arm, calling out sweetly. When her sister looked over, she gave a cute little smile and said, "Thank you, sister. I knew you would help me."

Chen Xingzhu stared at her and asked, "How can I help you?"

Chen Xingruo blinked blankly, seemingly not understanding what her sister was saying.

Chen Xingzhu and her sister exchanged a glance, then smiled gently and said, "Let's go home."

"go home!"

Chen Xingruo continued to hold her sister's hand as they stepped up the stairs and returned home, though a hint of contemplation and doubt still flickered in her eyes.

She naturally noticed her sister's unusual behavior tonight, but she couldn't quite understand many of her words and actions, and wasn't sure what her sister meant.

For example, the question my sister asked me this morning was whether I liked Xu Jinhuan.

That night, her sister asked again if Xu Jinhuan would recognize her if she dressed up as her. Was she giving her advice to pretend to be her and seduce Xu Jinhuan?
Were the things the woman on the bus said a warning to me to think things through before making a decision? Was she afraid that I would regret it later if I made a hasty decision?
Finally, when her sister asked her "help with what," did it mean that her actions today did indeed imply that she was acting as a pimp for her and Xu Jinhuan?
Otherwise, if it's just for helping yourself and you don't need to call your husband, then why ask "what are you helping with?"

But if that's the case, it seems a bit too incredible!
Of course, there's another thing: Song Zhiyu was acting strangely tonight too. A few bottles of Rio, how could she be that drunk?
One positive word after another...

Who would believe it if you said it wasn't intentional?

It's very likely that she's teasing or testing me. After all, Song Zhiyu only looks naive and innocent, but she's not really stupid. Besides, she's ruthless. Otherwise, Xie Wanqing wouldn't have been tricked into this.

Her sensitivity in this kind of matter should not be underestimated!
Come to think of it, the only truly clueless one seems to be Xie Wanqing. Tonight, she was the only one who didn't realize anything, thinking everyone was just drunk, and even advised them to drink less...

As Chen Xingruo thought of this, she suddenly remembered another important person.

'He doesn't seem very smart either, he's kind of silly...'

She mentally complained, then turned to look at her sister, wanting to ask her some questions, but even though she was her own sister, she didn't know whether she should speak up or how to do so.

Regardless of what my sister really meant, she's already reached her limit by doing this much, hasn't she?

Moreover, my sister certainly didn't just think of this today; otherwise, even if she were incredibly smart, she wouldn't have made such a decision so quickly since it happened this morning.

Most importantly, do I really have feelings for him?
So how should we choose?

"Sister Wanqing, I have something to tell you!"

Meanwhile, at Jianqiaobo House, Xie Wanqing and Song Zhiyu tidied up briefly and were about to take a bath when Song Zhiyu suddenly stopped her, staring at Xie Wanqing with a very serious expression, "It's important business."

"What's wrong? Are you sober now?"

Xie Wanqing found it amusing. "What's so serious about this? Tell me."

"Don't you think Sister Xingzhu is acting a little strange today?"

Song Zhiyu pulled Xie Wanqing back to sit on the sofa before asking, "Think about it carefully."

"Have it?"

Xie Wanqing thought for a moment, then gave up and asked directly, "Just tell me, what's wrong?"

"I feel like we need to prepare for a fight."

Song Zhiyu adopted a posture of preparing for battle, saying, "We two must form an alliance and fight those two sisters hard. We can't let their evil schemes succeed!"

? ?
Xie Wanqing blinked in confusion, increasingly suspecting that she might still be drunk. "Is your alcohol tolerance that low?" (End of Chapter)
