After traveling through time, she went to practice her way of making money

Chapter 311 Betting

After returning home, Su Shian couldn't wait to find Su Shikuan and wanted to tell him that she was going to follow them to the grassland tribe. However, when she ran to Su Shikuan's yard with great expectations, she found that he was not at home today and had gone out to meet his friends. Su Shian felt a little disappointed, but she did not give up. She decided to wait for Su Shikuan to come back and talk to him about this matter.

At the same time, Xiao Ran was in a particularly good mood after leaving the Su Mansion. He walked with light steps, humming a cheerful tune, with a bright smile on his face. He seemed to have forgotten all his troubles and immersed himself in joy. When Xiao Ran returned to his residence, he happened to meet Nangong Hui who was coming back from work in the front yard. Nangong Hui noticed the change in Xiao Ran at a glance, and teased with a smile: "Oh, Master Xiao, has your wish come true? Look at you, you are so happy that your mouth is grinning from ear to ear."

Xiao Ran smiled smugly, then looked at Nangong Hui provocatively and said, "Of course, I'm not like some people who like someone but don't even have the courage to express their feelings." After that, Xiao Ran glanced at Nangong Hui provocatively, implying that he had not yet expressed his feelings to the girl he liked.

However, Nangong Hui didn't know that Su Shi'an was actually a woman. So she confidently retorted: "Don't be complacent. Although you have got the promise of Mr. Su San, once the people of the Su family know your true intentions and actions, I'm afraid they will be so angry that they want to kill you!"

Xiao Ran looked at Nangong Hui, who looked very confident, and suddenly had a mischievous idea. He raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a sly smile, and said, "Hahahaha, I guess not. Do you want to make a bet?" He thought to himself that he seemed to be influenced by Su Shian and became a little naughty, but this feeling made him feel extremely happy.

Nangong Hui was naturally confident in her judgment, and she didn't notice Xiao Ran's unusual behavior today, or Buyou and Buyou's desperate winks. At this moment, her mind was full of bets, and she couldn't wait to ask, "What do you want to bet on, sir?"

Xiao Ran turned to look at Buyou and Buyu, with a teasing gleam in his eyes, and asked them with a smile: "What do you think is a better bet?" He deliberately ignored the glances from the two of them, as if to say, don't try to remind me again!

Buyou wanted to persuade her, after all, he didn't want to see Nangong Hui lose so badly, but he was interrupted by Buyou as soon as he opened his mouth. Buyou was obviously looking forward to this bet, and he excitedly suggested: "Sir, how about we bet that Nangong will buy midnight snacks for all of us for a month?"

"Hey! We haven't even started betting yet, are you sure I will lose?" Nangong Hui curled his lips, reminding Buyu and Buyu to think it over carefully. His voice was firm and stubborn, but with a hint of dissatisfaction and provocation. Buyu and Buyu looked at each other, thinking secretly in their hearts that they were the ones who followed the young master out today and knew the secret, so such an opportunity must not be missed.

Fu Mingzhong, Linghu Ji and Dongfang Tai also came over and joined the discussion. Linghu Ji was known for being well-informed, and he knew Xiao Ran better than the others. After some thought, he decided to trust Xiao Ran and believed that he had enough ability to win the bet. Dongfang Tai held the opposite view, believing that Xiao Ran might not be able to beat Nangong Hui. Fu Mingzhong said that he would not choose anyone and did not want to bet at all.

Xiao Ran looked at the reactions of the crowd, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile. Then, he turned to look at Fu Mingzhong, and said with a firm and confident look: "Uncle Fu, please be a witness for us." His voice was calm and powerful, revealing a momentum of victory. Fu Mingzhong nodded, and a smile appeared on his face, and he seemed to be very interested in this proposal.

He thought that such a bet might bring him some fun. Although he knew that Xiao Ran liked men, he did not oppose or support it, but just regarded it as a special personal hobby. In his eyes, Xiao Ran had experienced hardships since childhood, so it was understandable that he had some unusual preferences.

At this time, Nangong Hui on the side said: "One thing must be made clear, if you lose, you still have to buy midnight snacks for everyone for a month. Young master, right?" He stared at Xiao Ran, trying to catch a hint of flaw in his expression.

However, Xiao Ran answered without hesitation: "Don't I have money to buy midnight snacks for everyone? If I lose, I will buy two months' supply." His tone was full of confidence and generosity, which surprised everyone present.

"Young Master, you are playing a big game!" Dongfang Tai couldn't help but sigh. They originally thought it was just a small joke, but they didn't expect Xiao Ran to be so serious and even willing to pay double the price. At this moment, everyone's view of Xiao Ran changed subtly, and they secretly admired his courage and determination.

"Not so fun." Xiao Ran said, and walked happily into the yard. Buyou followed closely. Only Buyou, who knew the situation, looked at Nangong Hui with some pity, hesitated to speak, and then left. He also made a bet, forget it, I'd rather die than die. Let Nangong Hui bleed a little for everyone's midnight snack! At most, he would help him when he chased Wu Jin in the future.

Xiao Ran asked Nangong Hui to buy this three-and-a-half-story house with four side courtyards. He was filled with joy and satisfaction. From now on, this would become his home in Xuyang City, a safe haven that belonged to him.

The first thing that comes into view in the house is a winding corridor, with various flowers and trees planted on both sides of the corridor, and the breeze brings bursts of fragrance. Walking along the corridor, you can see an exquisite water pavilion, which is built on a pond. The water in the pond is clear and the fish swim freely in the water.

Further in, there is a spacious garden filled with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants. In a corner of the garden, there is a small nursery with some rare medicinal herbs and flowers.

The kitchen and bathroom of the house are also very cleverly designed. The kitchen is spacious and bright, with all kinds of cooking utensils, allowing people to give full play to their cooking skills. The bathroom is warm and comfortable, with a large wooden barrel, allowing people to take a comfortable hot bath after a busy day.

Although this house cannot be compared with the Su family and the Deng family that were improved by Su Shian, its living facilities are already very complete. Xiao Ran believes that he will be able to live a happy and fulfilling life here.
