Chapter 188: These Animals

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Everyone stared at the white particles in front of them and could not help but swallow their saliva.

However, after watching for a long time, no one made a move. They only raised their heads and looked at each other.

Liu Wei was getting impatient. “Do you want to eat it or not? Hurry up. Don’t make it look like I’m going to poison you to death.”

Duan Jingyuan was the first to go forward. He pinched it with his hand and put it into his mouth. Then, his eyes suddenly lit up. “It’s sweet. It’s really sugar.”

“Of course,” Liu Wei said proudly.

In the next moment, the onlookers at the table rushed forward and pushed Liu Wei away. They didn’t even care about their basic manners and reached into their bowls with one hand each.

Fortunately, Gu Yundong was quick. Shao Qingyuan pulled him to the side and avoided the noisy crowd.

Soon, exclamations sounded in the hall one after another. “Oh my god, it’s really sugar.”

“It’s refreshing.”

“Just like clouds, Young Master Liu was not bragging.”

“Hahaha, this is good. This is good. I like it.”

“Delicious!!”

The chatter made the people watching from the outside itch. They wanted to squeeze in and take a look with their own eyes, but there were too many people. They could not even see them, let alone squeeze in.

When Liu Wei was pulled out by Liu An, his hair was even messier, and his clothes were torn into a mess as if someone had molested him.

At this moment, he still remembered to take out the bag of white sugar tightly in his arms, afraid that it would be swallowed by these wolves and tigers.

When he was outside the crowd, he heaved a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off his forehead. “These animals look like they haven’t seen candy in eight lifetimes.”

He looked up and saw Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan standing far away. Not even a strand of hair was messy. He was so angry that his hands trembled. “You’re too much. Why didn’t you help me when you came out?”

“We’re doing this for your own good. If we hadn’t come out early, your five shops might have flown away,” Gu Yundong said and pointed at the other end of the crowd.

On the other side, Tao Xing was being escorted out by his servant.

Liu Wei glared at him and shouted, “Tao Xing, are you trying to go back on your word?”

Perhaps because his voice was too sharp, it drowned out the noisy crowd. The people around the table instantly quietened down and looked in Tao Xing’s direction.

Tao Xing cursed in his heart and slowly straightened up. He tidied up his clothes that were also messed up and turned to look at Liu Wei. “What nonsense are you talking about? Going back on my word? I just saw too many people being squeezed out. Didn’t you come out too?”

It would be strange if Liu Wei believed him. He trembled and went forward. “Alright, since you’re not going to go back on your word, we can fulfill the bet now. You have eaten the white sugar too. How is it? It’s the same as the white clouds, right?”

He saw two grains of white sugar stuck to the corner of Tao Xing’s mouth.

Tao Xing’s face darkened.

Liu Wei had already spread out his hands. “Give me the contracts.”

Tao Xing was indignant and clenched his fists.

He wanted to go back on his word. Those were five shops, and they were considered good five shops in the Tao family. At that time, he had promised in front of his father that he would not lose, so his father had given him the deeds.

In the end, not only did he not win back the Liu family’s shops, but he also suffered heavy losses. Wouldn’t he be beaten to death by his father when he returned home? Most importantly, his eldest brother would definitely take this opportunity to suppress him.

Tao Xing pursed his lips. When he looked up, he suddenly saw Gu Yundong standing at the side..
