Chapter 11: Dare to Take the Bet? (2/2)

“Alright,” Feng Hongmei said with clenched teeth, uncertain whether she was trying to save face for Zhao Qingfeng in front of the crowd or truly believed in him. Amidst her mixed emotions, she assured Zhao Xiulian and the others very seriously, “Whatever my son says, consider it my word. You talk with him today.”

The aunts were taken aback again. They exchanged looks and quickly made up their minds. Regardless, they decided to first hear what the bet was.

Zhao Xiuli sneered and asked Zhao Qingfeng, “Kid, first tell us what the bet is. If it’s about who can run faster, we’re certainly not as good as you.”

“Yeah, if it’s about being mischievous or bad at studies, we can’t compete either.”

“But let us warn you, don’t just talk nonsense. So many people are watching, and today you’re representing your mother, so watch your mouth.”

The crowd grew more expectant, waiting for Zhao Qingfeng’s response.

Meanwhile, Shen Kuo and Aunt Ding also gathered around, intending to persuade Feng Hongmei to talk Zhao Qingfeng down.

“Hongmei, let Xiaofeng go home first.”

“He’s still a child. What if he acts impulsively? How will we end this?”

“Why not stick to our original plan? Let me guarantee and negotiate with them again.”

Shen Lingyao was also listening. While her parents comforted Feng Hongmei, she quietly approached Zhao Qingfeng and pinched him gently, “Brother Qingfeng, what exactly are you betting on?”

Zhao Qingfeng looked at Shen Lingyao tenderly, the more he looked, the more he cherished her, “Lingyao, you still want to support me, thinking I’m some kept man, huh? Wait and cook and wash for me. Remember, I don’t need your support, don’t say it again.”

Then, he jokingly said to his mother, “Mom, look, Lingyao seems to be coveting me, this pure and good young man. You have to help me guard against her, don’t let her kidnap and sell me.”

His joke immediately lightened the mood.

Shen Lingyao, feeling her secret thoughts exposed, blushed, “Who… who wants to kidnap you, you big pig head.”

As she spoke, she quickly hid behind Aunt Ding.

What nonsense is Big Honey Bee talking about? What kind of time is this to joke around?

However, this was exactly Zhao Qingfeng’s intention. A master can always control the scene, like now, where many people were amused by their interaction, seemingly forgetting about the aunts.

The three aunts were infuriated. Seeing Zhao Qingfeng suddenly start joking and being ignored, Zhao Xiuhua angrily issued an ultimatum.

“Spit it out, you bastard, don’t distract us here!”

“Quickly tell us what you’re betting on.”

“We must win your family’s money and house, because it originally belonged to our Zhao family!”

Hehe.

Zhao Qingfeng, with arms crossed, turned his head and sneered. He then powerfully uttered a sentence that shocked everyone present.

It was a bet that seemed utterly implausible to anyone who heard it.

“Listen up!”

“I, Zhao Qingfeng, will definitely rank among the top three in the county’s college entrance examination this year!”

“If not, the house is yours, the compensation is yours!”

“But if I, Zhao Qingfeng, make it into the top three!”

“Then!”

“You must completely sever all ties with my mother and me from now on, never to harass us again!”

“Today, in front of so many people, let’s seriously stake our dignity and reputation, and make a bet!”

“You!”

“Are you daring, or are you not?”
