Chapter 656: Can’t Bear to Let Her Be Scolded

….

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor; Henyee Translations

Whether it was from the words of Jiang Weiyang and Cheng Jie or the reactions of the surrounding people, Murong Qiao could tell that no one seemed to think that Driver Number 10 was a good choice.

“There’s no need to withdraw it.” Murong Qiao rejected Cheng Jie’s suggestion.

“But…” Cheng Jie frowned and wanted to say something.

The surrounding people also shouted and expressed their opinions.

“Little Miss, it’s better for you to listen to them. Number 10 is really unreliable.

It’s better for you to bet on anyone than Number 10.”

This voice was not the only one. Murong Qiao’s bet almost spread like wildfire.

Soon, it spread among the crowd.

At some point in time, Xin Qingxue, who had been pestering Shen Xi, also came over. When she saw that it was Murong Qiao, her eyes lit up and she walked over to greet him.

“Young Miss Murong, what a coincidence to meet you on such an occasion.” Xin Qingxue smiled and waved.

She walked up to Murong Qiao and glanced at Huo Yichen, who was standing beside her. Naturally, she recognized him at a glance as the current President of the Huo Corporation.

Xin Qingxue turned to Murong Qiao and said, “I’m here to watch a friend’s compet.i.tion. If Young Miss Murong is also interested in racing, I can reveal something.”

“I don’t want to understand. I’m just supporting a friend,” Murong Qiao replied casually.

Xin Qingxue naturally heard that Murong Qiao was betting her money on No.

Seeing Murong Qiao say this, she glanced in the driver’s direction.

Unfortunately, they were too far away and couldn’t see clearly.

“Even if you’re friends, he probably doesn’t want your kindness to be wasted like this, Young Miss Murong.”

Xin Qingxue smiled. “Friends are friends. Money is money. If you can earn a sum of money, he’ll be in a better mood.”

She tried to persuade Murong Qiao nicely, but she couldn’t help but think of the gentle and humble Mr. Cen she had seen last time.

Ever since they met at the restaurant last time, there seemed to be no news of the other party.

However, this time, before Murong Qiao could say anything, Huo Yichen s action of placing a bet perfectly blocked Xin Qingxue’s words.

Huo Yichen followed closely behind. After Murong Qiao made her move, he also bet on Number to, twice as much as Murong Qiao.

This action undoubtedly caused everyone to exclaim again.

Even Murong Qiao looked at Huo Yichen after seeing his actions.

Huo Yichen didn’t think much of it. After the bet was over, he had no intention of regretting it at all. He brought Murong Qiao back to the front row to sit down.

“You’re betting with me without even asking why?” Murong Qiao asked him.

She had bet on it herself and more or less knew something, but when it came to

Huo Yichen, he knew nothing…

Huo Yichen looked at her. “What’s there to ask?”

There was a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt in his eyes when he looked at Murong Qiao. This made the man’s face not so cold and stern, especially in Murong Qiao’s eyes.

“Since they said that, I couldn’t help but bet.” Huo Yichen reached out and stroked her hair.

The main reason was that he couldn’t bear for her to be criticized.

Murong Qiao couldn’t help but laugh at his words. Then, she didn’t explain why she had bet. In the end, there would be an outcome after the compet.i.tion ended.

However, the commotion from the bet still attracted the attention of others. Not long after the two “great injustices” placed their bets on Driver 10, many people found out.

The bet was placed half an hour before the compet.i.tion began. This was also the time for the racers to prepare.

On the huge track, from time to time, there would be the buzzing sound of tires rubbing against the ground. The car’s shadow flashed in front of them, and before the audience could react, it had already widened the distance by more than half.

After circling around, Tang Huai stopped the car. He stepped out of the car with one long leg and took off his helmet.

-I heard that two rich second-generation heirs placed a bet on you.” A friend came over as soon as Tang Huai got out of the car.

Tang Huai’s eyebrows didn’t even move. “Oh.”

When he heard someone place a bet on him, the first person Tang Huai could think of was Xian Yu.

If the other party came to watch his compet.i.tion, he would most likely place a bet.

“Tsk, I hate your uninterested appearance.” Seeing that he didn’t react, his friend curled his lips.

Tang Huai’s car was pulled to the side for one last inspection. It was only when it was empty that he chatted with his friends.

“If you have something to say, say it. If not, I’m going to compete later. Don’t disturb me.” Tang Huai pushed his shoulder.

His friend turned around and leaned over again. “Then let’s talk seriously.”

-Are you really going to partic.i.p.ate in the Rapid Mountain Race? That thing is dangerous.”

Hearing the words “Rapid Mountain Race”, Tang Huai barely diverted his attention from the car to his friend.

He took a casual sip of water. “Of course I have to go.

“But your leg—” The friend started to say something, then stopped.

Tang Huai was expressionless. “It’s fine.”

The Rapid Mountain Race compet.i.tion sounded simple and concise, but it also represented countless racers who had lost their lives.

That was the honor that every racer yearned for. Tang Huai was no exception. “Don’t I know if it’s fine?” His friend seemed to be able to see through him. Regardless of Tang Huai’s personality, no one could persuade him. Hence, after the two of them mentioned this matter, the friend gave up.

Tang Huai lowered his eyes, thinking about something. He suddenly said, “No matter what, I’ll get first place this time.”

He had to obtain the right to compete in the Rapid Mountain Race.

There were still five minutes before the compet.i.tion began.

There were only two minutes left on the countdown to the bets on the drivers. Jiang Weiyang and Cheng Jie returned to their seats, but not long after they sat down, they couldn’t help but look back at Murong Qiao.

She felt disgusted that Murong Qiao had deliberately placed a bet on Number io in front of her just now. She felt that Murong Qiao was deliberately showing off to her.

“Who do you think you are…” Jiang Weiyang bit her lips and said extremely softly.

She just couldn’t stand Murong Qiao’s appearance, let alone now that she and Huo Yichen were engaged.

Speaking of engagement, when Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen’s engagement party invitations were sent to the Jiang family some time ago, Jiang Weiyang didn’t follow them at all.

In order to prove that she was right, Jiang Weiyang placed a bet on Number 4.

“You raised the bet again?” Cheng Jie saw her bet.

Before Murong Qiao and the others came, Jiang Weiyang and Cheng Jie had both spent a small sum of money to have fun. In the end, in the blink of an eye, they saw Jiang Weiyang throw another few million on Number 4- Cheng Jie frowned in disapproval.

Jiang Weiyang snorted. “She’s the only one allowed to smash money, but I’m not allowed to earn more?”

“But if he’s not first…” Before Cheng Jie could finish persuading her, he was interrupted impatiently.

“She won’t win anyway.” Jiang Weiyang didn’t care.

She felt that she and Murong Qiao were definitely natural enemies. No matter where they met, they were at odds.

Before long, the advertis.e.m.e.nt and music playing on the big screen suddenly stopped. Then, the emcee’s voice sounded around the venue.

“Next, please watch our finals. The final champion will be able to obtain the qualifications to partic.i.p.ate in the Rapid Mountain Race.. The drivers partic.i.p.ating in this compet.i.tion are…”
