The Bully General's Spiritual Husband

Zhou Xiaosan rubbed his hands together. "Hey, you little money-grubber, why don't you come to the gambling den anymore? A pretty boy recently came to the gambling den, and he's really good at gambling. He even said that you're not as good as him, and that you're winning money by cheating."

The following sentence was completely fabricated by Zhou Xiaosan; he just wanted to provoke Yin Baicai into gambling with Shen Jin at the gambling den.

Before Yin Baicai could speak, Li Zhe's face darkened as soon as Zhou Xiaosan mentioned the gambling den.

This guy not only gambles, but he also dares to invite Brother Cai to the gambling den.

Li Zhe said coldly, "It seems that you didn't swing hard enough just now."

Zhou Xiaosan clearly understood what Li Zhe meant. The last time he met the Little God of Wealth, this scarred man also wouldn't let him go to the gambling den.

Yin Baicai naturally didn't want to go either. He was only doing it because he was desperate and had no money. Besides, gambling is really not a suitable thing for him.

Although the money comes quickly, who knows when the wealth you acquire will be lost?

These things are hard to explain.

Zhou Xiaosan thought about how badly he had lost recently, and how his family was almost starving. He thought that if he called over Little God of Wealth, maybe he could turn things around.

Gamblers have this mentality; they always feel there's a chance to turn things around.

Zhou Xiaosan said hesitantly, "Little God of Wealth, please help me make a fortune. Once we've made it, I'll quit. I, Zhou Xiaosan, will retire from this life of crime."

Yin Baicai sneered. Brother Hao had said before that gamblers' words were the least trustworthy.

Even though Brother Hao himself enjoys gambling, he usually donates most of his winnings to charity.

Does Zhou Xiaosan think she would agree to his request?

"I'm not going, you go by yourself!"

After saying that, he turned to Li Zhe, who was glaring at Zhou Xiaosan, and said, "Let's go."

Watching Yin Baicai and Li Zhe leave, Zhou Xiaosan's initial pleading and flattery turned into resentment. Fine, they wouldn't go. He was just a pretty boy with a few tricks up his sleeve.

It's a good thing I was the first person to talk to you so enthusiastically. I'm going to go talk to Lai Mazi later and find someone to teach you a lesson, you pretty boy.

Zhou Xiaosan spat in the direction Yin Baicai and the others had left: "Pah... what a load of rubbish."

Li Zhe looked at Yin Baicai, who was walking ahead of him, and asked him, "Why did you think of going to the gambling den the first time?"

Yin Baicai remained silent and did not answer Li Zhe's question.

Yin Baicai thought to herself that it was fortunate she didn't have a gambling addiction, otherwise she would have become like Zhou Xiaosan, neither human nor ghost.

Seeing that Yin Baicai did not answer him, Li Zhe did not press the matter further.

The two remained silent the entire way.

Yin Baicai suddenly asked Li Zhe beside her, "Li bully, do you know where to buy ice in town?"

Li Zhe: "I know, they have them at the ice cream shop. Why are you asking?"

"Okay, let's go take a look."

There was only one ice cream shop in town, and as soon as Yin Baicai stepped inside, she felt a refreshing coolness wash over her.

After walking in the sun for a while, the cool breeze felt really refreshing.

The waiter ushered the two inside: "Sirs, if you want to buy ice, come over and take a look inside. It's so hot today, this little shop is the coolest."

Just as Yin Baicai was about to ask the waiter about the price of ice, a disdainful female voice came from outside the door.

"Any poor person can get into your shop now. Manager Li, you'd better keep a close eye on your ice shop. These two probably aren't here to escape the cold. How could they possibly have the money to buy anything?"

After saying that, he chuckled and looked Yin Baicai and Li Zhe up and down.

The disdain was self-evident.

Manager Li at the counter hurriedly came out to greet the woman: "Miss Wang, what brings you here? Come in and sit down. It's hot outside, it's cooler inside."

Manager Li hurriedly called over the waiter who was serving Yin Baicai and her companion: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and serve Miss Wang tea."

The waiter gave Yin Baicai and his companion an apologetic look: "Please wait a moment, sirs, I'll be right there to serve you."

Wang Yao walked in like a proud female peacock, chin held high.

Seeing Wang Yao looking down on him, Yin Baicai immediately retorted. He couldn't stand this attitude: "Hey, who do you think you are, sister? You hold your chin up so high, just like my old hen. And you called me a poor wretch? If you're so rich, why don't you buy all the ice in this store?"

Wang Yao was furious at being insulted. This country bumpkin dared to call himself an old hen! It was unforgivable! Who did Wang Yao think she was? Who in this town would dare to offend her?

This skinny, stick-thin man, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, was surprisingly quick-witted.

Wang Yao frowned, pointed at Yin Baicai and Li Zhe, and said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper Li, kick them out?"

Manager Li hesitated and said, "Miss Wang... well, guests are guests, how can we turn them away?"

When Wang Yao heard that the shopkeeper wasn't doing what she said, she pouted and said, "Shopkeeper Li, have you thought this through? If you don't get rid of these two poor bastards, I'll go back and tell my father that our royal family can't afford the ice you have here."

After careful consideration, Manager Li decided to send Yin Baicai and her companion away, since the Prince's Mansion was one of his major clients.

If he lost the income from the Prince's mansion, he would suffer a terrible loss.

This ice is only popular for a short time; after the hot summer, he won't be able to do the ice-selling business anymore.

Manager Li said to Yin Baicai and her companion, "You two should leave now. I'm not doing business with you today."

Yin Baicai noticed that the shopkeeper had only glanced at him and Li Zhe from head to toe since they entered, indicating that he was a man of power and influence.

Forget it, I'll just leave. I wasn't planning on buying anything anyway.

Since the shopkeeper kicked me out, he can't blame me for taking his business.

Yin Baicai glanced at Manager Li and Wang Yao, then said to Li Zhe beside her, "Brother Li, let's go since they don't welcome us."

Li Zhe gave Wang Yao a cold look. How dare she make Cai Ge'er angry? If it weren't for the fact that it wasn't time to reveal his identity yet, he would definitely have given Cai Ge'er a good scolding.

Wang Yao watched as Yin Baicai and the other person were driven away, her face beaming with undisguised smugness.

"Hmph, Manager Li, from now on, don't let any Tom, Dick, or Harry in."

Hearing Wang Yao dare to insult her, Yin Baicai turned her head and said, "I'll fuck your grandpa! Look at you! Your face is as white as a ghost, your lips are as red as if you just ate a dead rat, you have the air of a nouveau riche, and you wear so much gold and silver on your body. When you walk, your powder falls off, and you look like an old witch."

After cursing, Yin Baicai gave Wang Yao the middle finger, "Ugly freak... Hey, hey—"

He turned around, grabbed Li Zhe, and ran away.

Wang Yao was so angry that her chest heaved, and she shouted, "Ah—I won't let you get away with this, you bitch!"

Xiaohe hurriedly comforted her, but she could hardly contain her laughter.

Well said! This Wang Yao is so unsophisticated, yet she thinks she's absolutely gorgeous. Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter.

The young ladies and gentlemen in town only dared to mock her in whispers, but now someone has finally spoken out loud.

The shopkeeper and waiter standing behind Wang Yao were both red-faced from trying to suppress their laughter, afraid that one of them would burst out laughing.
