1997 Lost Completely, Wanting to Go Back on His Word



Ji Hongyuan suddenly raised his head. His gaze was so fierce that it seemed like he wanted to eat her up.

However, he could not do anything in front of everyone. He could only clench his fists tightly. The veins on his neck bulged as he let out a shaky breath. "The meat Ganoderma is yours."

"Tsk." Qiao Nian smiled. Her clear black eyes moved. She didn't waste any time and asked bluntly, "Have you forgotten something? We didn't just bet on a meat Ganoderma. Did you suddenly forget the contents of our bet?"

The underground auction house was silent!

Everyone was paying attention to the development.

They were all witnesses to the stone gambling previously. If Qiao Nian had not mentioned it, they would not have remembered what Ji Hongyuan had bet with her.

He bet the Ji family's secret recipe for black gunpowder!

This bet was not small.

It was soul-stirring!

However, Ji Hongyuan still gambled without hesitation.

This meant that he did not think that the girl could win at all at the beginning. But reality proved that he had lost completely!

The secret recipe for black gunpowder was a top secret of the Ji family.

Ji Hongyuan's mind buzzed. He couldn't do anything shameless in public, but he could not possibly take out the secret recipe of the Ji family's black gunpowder. Stunned, the muscles on his back tensed, and the blood in his chest surged. He panted heavily and glared at the girl, unable to answer for a moment.

At this moment, He Lin stood up and said to Qiao Nian in embarrassment, "Miss… no, Miss Qiao, look, you've also gotten what you wanted. Why don't we… forget about this bet?"

When he said 'forget it', his aura had already fallen to the bottom.

The people in the underground auction house discussed it spiritedly. They did not expect the Ji family to be pressed down and slapped like this today. Their faces were about to be smashed, but they still had to humbly beg for mercy. Forget it…

Of course, Ji Hongyuan heard the whispers. Those discussions were undoubtedly public execution for him, making him unable to stand still for a moment.

Nan Tianyi did not say anything. He only stood beside Qiao Nian and said to her in a low voice, "Qiao Nian, you won this. Do as you see fit. I'll support you no matter what decision you make."

Ye Wangchuan didn't say much. Just standing side by side with Qiao Nian, his aura was difficult to ignore.

Qin Si blinked. In any case, he could not understand the situation in front of him, so he might as well shut up and pay more attention.

At this moment, Qiao Nian raised her baseball cap, revealing an exquisite and eye-catching face. She looked at him with a pair of bright eyes, as if mocking him. "Forget it?"

He Lin was also embarrassed. In order to hide his embarrassment, he coughed awkwardly and looked up at her. "Yes, Miss Qiao. Why don't we forget it?"

"If I was the one who lost today, would the Ji family let it go?" Qiao Nian asked him back.

He Lin was stunned.

This…

Ever since the Sixth Elder returned from the First Research Institute, he had made up his mind to target Young Miss. If the person who won today was the Sixth Elder, He Lin was not sure if Ji Hongyuan would be magnanimous and let her off easily.

His eyes suddenly flickered as he looked at Qiao Nian. He was not as confident as before, but he still mustered his courage. "Miss Qiao, this is just a game. There's no need to take it so seriously."

Qiao Nian did not argue with him. She only looked at Ji Hongyuan and said casually, "If you don't want to take out the Ji family's black gunpowder secret recipe, you can just admit that the Ji family can't afford to lose it. How about that?"

The girl looked at him with her dark eyes, as if she was really waiting for him to beg for mercy like a wolf cub!
