After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

As soon as Zhu Daji said this, the scene fell into an eerie silence.

Everyone looked at each other, dumbfounded for a moment.

It's not uncommon for two women to fight over one man in today's society.

It's common to see people even getting into fights over this in the streets.

But the question is, who are these two women in front of us?

One is Zhu Daji, the eldest daughter of the Zhu family, a genuine heiress from a wealthy family, who is known as a heartthrob in the entire high society of Jingzhou!

Countless wealthy young men were infatuated with him; the Zhu family's doorstep was practically worn down by matchmakers!

The other was even more extraordinary, universally acknowledged as the most beautiful woman in Jingzhou, the dream girl of every man. She possessed both beauty and talent, was the former head of the Qin Group, and was recognized by even the Governor of Jingzhou as the "Queen of Jingzhou"!

These two beauties, if taken individually, are goddesses who are unattainable; a single glance from them could drive countless men crazy.

But what are they doing now?

They're actually betting here over a man? That's just ridiculous!

"Young Master Li, what exactly is Ye Bai's background? Are you sure he's really just an adopted son of the Ye family, and not some long-lost young master from a top wealthy family?"

Xiang Ziming swallowed hard and asked Li Fengyun beside him in a low voice.

As a big star, he has seen a lot of the world and has met many wealthy people.

But this kind of situation was something I had never encountered before, and I was completely dumbfounded.

"Absolutely certain! That guy is an adopted son of the Ye family, taken in from an orphanage by Ye Wentian, the head of the Ye family!"

Li Fengyun nodded, gritting his teeth as he stared intently at Ye Bai, his face filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

He truly couldn't understand what Ye Bai had done to deserve such favor from Qin Wanqing and Zhu Daji.

In terms of looks, he believed he was no less handsome than Ye Bai, and perhaps even more so.

In terms of background, he is the eldest son of the Li family, one of the four great families in Jingzhou, and his status is extremely noble.

Let alone a mere adopted son of the Ye family, even Ye Xuanyuan, the eldest son of the Ye family, would be inferior to him.

Speaking of talent... well, for truly wealthy people, talent is nothing, that's something only children like!

So, how exactly did this person surnamed Ye manage to do it?

Is it because this guy is bold and unafraid of being cursed to death?

But I'm not afraid... okay, I'm still fucking scared!

But Zhao Wuyai and his group were also afraid! Okay, so they were losers too…

Damn, there really are people in this world who aren't afraid of death!

You deserve to lose if you run into someone like that!

Li Fengyun began to reflect and comfort himself, and when he thought that Zhao Wuyai and the others were also out of the game, his depression actually lessened a lot.

He even seemed somewhat gloating.

Because those two guys used to be even better at licking than him.

Ugh, ugh, ugh, why am I putting myself in the shoes of a simp again!

Xiang Ziming, of course, had no idea that this young master of the Li family was having so many thoughts running through his mind. He just muttered to himself, filled with resentment, "Why am I not an orphan?"

……

"Hehe, this bet is quite interesting."

Qin Wanqing gave Ye Bai a strange look, then turned to Zhu Daji and said indifferently, "You like Ye Bai that much?"

"Mind your own business! I'm just asking you if you dare to bet!"

Zhu Daji gave a soft snort, feeling somewhat guilty.

How could she easily fall in love with someone else? Otherwise, she wouldn't have never had a relationship.

Although there are always rumors that she has a relationship with this man and has an affair with that man, these are all rumors.

It's true that Zhu Daji enjoys playing along and certainly relishes seeing those scoundrels bewitched by her, but so far, she has yet to meet a man who truly moves her heart and makes her give him her whole heart and body.

The reason they treated Ye Bai this way was simply because he was Qin Wanqing's man.

And she couldn't help but want to snatch anything related to Qin Wanqing.

Whether you win or lose is not important, but you must have this attitude of not giving up.

From childhood to adulthood, these habits have long been formed and have even become an indispensable part of life!

"What's there to be afraid of? It's just that you seem to have overlooked a crucial issue."

Qin Wanqing's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of mockery.

Zhu Daji asked, puzzled, "What's the problem?"

Qin Wanqing said, "Ye Bai is already my man, and he has nothing to do with you. Now you want to use him as a gamble, don't you think that's like trying to get something for nothing?"

“Wanqing is right. Since it’s a fair bet, the stakes have to be equal. How about this, Daji, I’ll help you with this. You use me as your stake. If Wanqing wins, you give me to her…”

Before Zhu Daji could even speak, Li Fengyun jumped out impatiently.

Its face was beaming with excitement; it was practically wagging its tail wildly.

At that moment, he felt like a fucking genius.

Using Zhu Daji as a bargaining chip would not only do her a huge favor, but also greatly increase the chances of losing to Qin Wanqing.

At that time, he could legitimately follow Queen Qin around and fawn over her every day.

Pshaw! This isn't licking boots, it's accepting your losses!

"...I think you're just hoping I lose!"

Zhu Daji rolled her eyes, immediately seeing through Li Fengyun's plan.

"Apart from Ye Bai, no one else is qualified to be a bargaining chip."

Qin Wanqing's cold voice rang out, instantly extinguishing Li Fengyun's joy.

The esteemed eldest son of the Li family was now in tears.

That's so humiliating!

Why is Ye Bai allowed to be used as a bargaining chip, while he doesn't even qualify to be one?

"Qin Wanqing, just say what you want."

Zhu Daji is clearly the type who doesn't like to use her brain. She's definitely better than Shen Lu, but far inferior to Qin Wanqing, so she's too lazy to waste her brain cells any longer.

"I want that Hanoverian horse you just bought a while ago!"

Qin Wanqing smiled slightly and stated her request.

"Impossible! Qin Wanqing, you're dreaming! Putting aside how much money that horse cost me, the most important thing is that without connections abroad, you can't buy one even if you have the money! I went through a lot of trouble to finally get one!"

Zhu Daji instantly bristled, jumped up, and refused without hesitation.

"Hehe, if you can't bear to part with him, then forget it. It seems that when you said you liked Ye Bai before, you were just trying to annoy me. And you also know that you are bound to lose, so there's no need to gamble."

Qin Wanqing sneered.

"Who said that? I..."

Zhu Daji was both angry and furious, and for a moment she was speechless. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and huff, "Fine, I'll bet! I don't believe I'll lose to you!"

"Very well, Li Fengyun, you be the witness, so this vixen won't go back on her word!"

Qin Wanqing nodded; even the witnesses had been found.

"Hey, hey, hey, aren't you two going too far? Especially you, Qin Wanqing, you're betting me against a horse?!"

Ye Bai, who had been keeping quiet until now, finally couldn't help but jump out.
