Chapter 22 - Another Bet

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

‘The Go match was the annual grand event of the Firth Royal College. On this day, all the students did not have to attend classes. Even if they were not participating in the match, they could still join as spectators.

Cheng Qianqian carried a small school bag and arrived at the competition venue. She took out her contestant pass and entered the venue after registering at the entrance.

“Yo, who’s this!”

Cheng Qianqian stopped in her tracks and turned around to take a look. Enemies were indeed bound to meet on a narrow road, seeing that she could meet Liu Yuanyuan here, and also naturally her master, Qi Xuanxuan.

“Cheng Qianqian, do you know how to spell the word ‘shame’? Someone like you, who can’t even differentiate between Go and Chinese chess, has the nerve to participate in the Go tournament?”

Yesterday, the video of Cheng Qianqian and Kai Yuan playing Go had already gone viral on the school’s intranet. Everyone said that Cheng Qiangian was just playing to the gallery and she was making use of the competition as a gimmick to become famous.

Cheng Qianqian ignored her sarcasm and said in a serious tone, “The contestant pass has been approved by the school. I can participate in the competition since I have the pass. You can complain to the teaching office if you have any objections!”

“Do you know how to play Go? How dare you come out to compete? There are many outstanding players from all over the country today. I think you’re here to ruin our school’s reputation!”

Cheng Qianqian crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows as she said, “Even if I lose the match, I’ll be embarrassing myself. Why are you so agitated? Could it be that you’re shouting here because you’re afraid of losing to me?”

“Ha! Losing to you? You must be dreaming! I can beat you even with my eyes closed!”

“Is that so?” Cheng Qianqian shrugged. “Who doesn’t know how to brag?”

“You!”

“Why don’t we make a bet since you’re so confident in yourself?” Qi Xuanxuan walked over slowly with a smile.

“If you get first place today, you win. Otherwise, you lose. How about it?”

Cheng Qianqian said noncommittally, “What do I get if I win? I won’t do anything that doesn’t benefit me. It’s a waste of time.”

Qi Xuanxuan frowned, “What do you want?”

Cheng Qianqian smiled and revealed her yellow teeth, raising five fingers. “If I win, each of you will lose 5 million yuan to me.”

“5 million! Why don’t you go rob a bank!” Liu Yuanyuan scoffed.

“Oh, you don’t have the money! Forget it then!” Cheng Qiangian said indifferently.

Qi Xuanxuan narrowed her eyes. She had seen the video yesterday. Based on Cheng Qianqian’s performance, she could not even win one round, let alone enter the finals!

“Fine! 5 million it is! But if you lose, from today onwards, you have to kneel in the canteen every day and let me sit on your back to eat. You also have to be my servant, serving me tea and water, and be scolded and beaten at my will. Do you dare?”

Yesterday at the school canteen, it was the first time that Qi Xuanxuan was humiliated like that. When she returned home, she wanted to complain to her mother and ask her cousin to teach Cheng Qianqian a lesson.

Unexpectedly, before she could say anything, her cousin somehow found out and said that she was arrogant and despotic in school, ruining the Si family’s reputation. It caused her to lose half a year’s allowance from her parents!

All of this was thanks to Cheng Qianqian. She wished she could tear her into pieces!

Cheng Qiangqian curled her lips. “So ruthless!”

“Why? Are you afraid? It’s not too late to be afraid.”

“What’s there to be afraid of? I won’t be the one who loses in the end.” Cheng Qianqian curled her lips. “However, words alone are no proof. In case you lose and refuse to admit it, I’ll be at a huge loss! It’s best to write an IOU so everyone can set their minds at rest!”

“Sure!” Qi Xuanxuan was very straightforward. In fact, she was worried that Cheng Qiangian would not admit to it in the end!
