"That Japanese friend of yours cheated during our bet. What do you think we should do..."
The two of them stood at the door and spoke harshly. Jiaming turned around to look at Ya Han, who was fast asleep on the bed. Then, he pressed his forehead helplessly.
"Uh... did you guys lose so quickly?"
"What are you talking about!"
"Gu Jiaming, what do you mean by that!"
It was probably because Jia Ming's words had struck a nerve. The two men's reactions at that moment were quite big. One of them pointed directly at Jia Ming, while the other seemed to want to reach out and grab Jia Ming or push him.
Even though people like Jiaming wouldn't normally get bullied, that didn't mean that people were afraid of him. In the Huang family, it was more likely that they found him boring and couldn't be bothered to deal with him.
Jiaming frowned. It wasn't a big deal to push the door down, but if the door was opened a little wider, they would definitely see Ya Han on the bed. Even though the two of them had an "open and aboveboard" sibling relationship, it wasn't good for these unfamiliar people to see it. He took a step back and slammed the door shut in front of them.
"What's there to say about this kind of thing? According to the rules, whoever cheats will be dragged out and beaten up..."
The two of them pounded on the door a few times. From outside, the two of them shouted, "Gu Jiaming, you better remember this!"
If they were still eleven or twelve years old, they would probably have already broken down the door and barged in. But now that they were older, they wouldn't get into a fight so easily. Hearing the footsteps fade away, Jiaming shook his head.
If Masanori Tianyu really cheated, how could these rookies see through it? It was probably because they saw that Masanori Tianyu was a foreigner with no background and wanted to find an excuse to renege on the bet after losing money.
If they were really going to drag Masanori Tianyu out and beat him up, then he had to go out and take a look. However, it was hard to say who would be the one getting beaten up in the end. He sat down by the bed and was about to pick up another manga when he suddenly hesitated.
Although these guys liked to cheat, they were not that bad. Although the Huang family was in a difficult situation, they were still a big family. These young people who had just come of age could easily fork out a few thousand or even tens of thousands of yuan. Tian Yu Zhengze's gambling skills were not as good as the average person's. If it was just based on winning and losing, a hooligan like Huang Jianpeng should be able to tell how powerful the other party was after losing money. Although this guy's reputation was not good, and most people knew that he cheated, if he always accused others of cheating every time he lost, how would he be able to open a gambling house now? If that was the case, the reason why they were in such a hurry to accuse the other party was because of something else …
After thinking for a while, he pulled the blanket over Ya Han and closed the curtains. Then, he pushed the door open and went to the guest room to watch the show.
*****
The Huang family's villa was very big. There was more than one guest room in the main residence. On the day of the funeral, one of the guest rooms was used as a rest and entertainment room for the young people.
A large group of young men and women were either standing or sitting inside, chatting and bragging happily. Most of the people gathered here were young people under the age of 30 who were inseparable from the Huang family. Therefore, it was not as gloomy and oppressive as other places. At this time, some of them had serious expressions, some of them had mysterious expressions, and some of them were in high spirits. Their saliva was flying everywhere. It was a noisy scene.
Although most of them were used to being foppish, they still had some ambitions in comparison. They were used to smooth sailing, so they were less likely to be smoothed out by reality. Now that the Huang Family had encountered such a situation, these people naturally used their own imagination, discussing one plan after another that could save the Huang Family from the fire and water, and support the Huang Family from its collapse.
As for those who had already experienced the hardships of society and were more realistic, they called on everyone to work together. They wanted to prove that even if Huang Bingxiang fell, the Huang family's future was still in their hands.
One after another, they spoke passionately and passionately. Although most of them were just idle chatter, the atmosphere was still good.
It was in such an atmosphere that two young girls around the age of 17 or 18 rushed in with surprised expressions. They said something to their companions. When Jiaming came over, he saw many young men and women walking towards the lawn of the mourning hall from the other side of the door. He didn't know what important figure they were interested in.
In an instant, half of the crowded hall was empty. Jiaming could easily see that at a long table in the corner of the hall, the two cousins he had just called out to, Huang Jianpeng and the others were arguing with someone. Tian Yu, who was dressed in white sportswear, was sitting there with a helpless expression. At this moment, standing beside him were actually two rarely seen cousins of the Huang family. One was older and the other was younger, and they were knocking on the table as they confronted Huang Jianpeng.
Usually, Jiaming didn't stay in the villa. He would only see them once or twice during the clan gatherings. Jiaming only knew that these two women were his cousins, but he didn't even greet them. However, he always had a photographic memory, so he knew that the younger woman in the black dress was called Huang Feifei. She was currently studying in a university in a neighboring city. The other woman, who was about 25 or 26 years old, was dressed in office attire and was called Huang Ruoxin. She had already joined the workforce and was currently the financial manager of one of the Huang Group's subsidiary companies.
Although almost half of the people in the hall had left, there were still many people watching the lively scene. Looking at the situation, it was likely that the two girls were teaming up with Tian Yu to argue with Huang Jianpeng and the other seven men. However, Tian Yu was currently cutting her nails out of boredom and had nothing to say. Thus, it became a situation of two against seven.
However, when it came to quarreling, in such an occasion where it was impossible to fight, women always had an advantage. Huang Feifei's temperament was usually not unruly, but at this moment, she was glaring at Huang Jianpeng angrily. Huang Ruoxin, on the other hand, had a sneer on her face as she calmly dealt with the loud voices of Huang Jianpeng and the others.
Huang Ruoxin was someone who had worked for a long time. Her ability was recognized, and she was in charge of a group of people. At this moment, she was dressed like an office lady with a pair of stockings and high-heeled earrings. She was somewhat similar to Ya Han, who usually went out to socialize. However, she was from a collateral branch of the Huang Family and had struggled a lot to gain the family's recognition. Although her temperament was cold and aloof, it was inevitable that there was a bit of icicle sharpness. Unlike Ya Han, who had received formal aristocratic education, although she usually gave people a feeling of arrogance and unapproachable, she was always calm and tranquil. Often, people could feel that she was maintaining a sense of propriety through her frown and smile, but she would not be overly hurtful.
However, Huang Ruoxin's sharp and cold arrogance clearly and forcefully suppressed the arrogance of Huang Jianpeng and the others at this moment. She took out a posture as if she was negotiating with them. As the woman spoke unhurriedly, the slender fingers of her left hand tapped elegantly and calmly on the table, giving the other party psychological pressure.
"… There is no logic in your words, and you can't provide any evidence. Huang Jianpeng, who in the family doesn't know that you are the one who cheated?
He is a guest from afar, but you falsely accuse him of cheating without any logic and evidence. On such a day, I really don't want to scold anyone. You'd better pay attention to your restraint! "
"What … what do you mean by there is no logic? I cheated, I cheated, and I still lost to him!
There were eleven consecutive games, and each game was the same as the one that just intercepted my cards. How could there be such a coincidence? "
"Huang Jianpeng, let me tell you, when I went to Macau to play cards, I saw fifty consecutive games. If you want to accuse him of cheating, you'd better provide evidence.
If you can't afford to lose, don't worry. We are a family. I have money here. Do you want me to sign a check for you … "
"Huang Ruoxin, you …"
Huang Ruoxin's words were sharp, directly implying that Huang Jianpeng was incompetent and living off a woman. Because she was a woman, and Huang Ruoxin had some status in the family, she couldn't scold him, nor could she start a fight. The man in front of her immediately flushed red, and then repeated, "You intercepted my cards eleven times in a row. It's obvious that you cheated, and did it on purpose …" Six or seven people chimed in from the side, but they were actually at a disadvantage.
However, the first thing that Jiaming noticed was the silver ring on Huang Ruoxin's left index finger. As her finger tapped, it also swayed on the table.
According to international conventions, there was only one meaning to wearing a ring on the index finger: waiting for love.
Standing at the door, Jiaming smiled. Noticing that Jiaming had arrived, Tian Yu tilted his head, intentionally or otherwise, and glanced behind him. When the two sides were arguing for some time, he stood up with a smile, "How about this, how about this, it's just a misunderstanding. We were just playing around. Why take it so seriously? Since Brother Huang feels that it's unfair, you can take back the twenty thousand and pretend that nothing happened …"
"I don't want your money!"
Huang Jianpeng protested loudly. Huang Ruoxin and Huang Jianpeng had been arguing for a long time. Now that the man beside her had changed sides, she also said, "You don't have to give him face." Huang Feifei echoed from the side.
Tian Yu smiled and said a few polite words. He already had an expression that said, "That's it". He pulled out a chair and turned to leave. However, Jiaming was already close by. He pointed at Tian Yu twice and curled his lips in disdain, "Japanese devil … cheated."
"Do you have any objections?"
Tian Yu smiled and shrugged. Jiaming had an indifferent expression, "Do you still need to say it?
Cheated … "He shrugged and said matter-of-factly," Of course I'll drag you out and beat you up. In the future, I'll f * ck you every time I see you … "
The conversation between the two of them was naturally a joke to the other party who had a secret identity. However, the bystanders couldn't tell. Before Tian Yu could reply, Huang Ruoxin slammed the table, "Gu Jiaming, this has nothing to do with you. What are you doing here?
Go away! "For a moment, she was as cold as ice.
Opposite her, Jiaming was stunned for a moment. Then, an interested smile appeared on his face. Tian Yu averted his gaze and looked at the leg of the chair. He smiled and pinched the bridge of his nose.
