Chapter 8: A Bet

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Yang Guang was starting to get annoyed as Mu Xiaowan had been staring at the red bracket fungus for too long.

He couldn’t understand why she had to study the fungus for five minutes straight.

Mu Xiaowan raised her head to look at Yang Guang as if he was weird. “Who are you?”

“The red bracket fungus in your hand, I’m the one who found it. Don’t tell me you think it’s fake?” Yang Guang asked.

“What’s wrong with taking a little precaution?” Mu Xiaowan frowned and rolled her eyes before turning back to Chen Jianguo. “This sure is a great product. I’ll transfer the money to your account.”

“Sure thing. Take your time.”

Even though Chen Jianguo did tell Mu Xiaowan to take her time, his anxious expression betrayed him.

[Beep! $7,000 has been deposited into your account!]

When a female AI voice filled the room, Yang Guang’s jaw dropped.

Not only did he manage to sell the bracket fungus, but it was sold for $1,000 more than the expected price.

Yang Guang finally understood why Chen Jianguo was excited as well. The shop owner had earned himself quite a fortune too.

Seeing how Mu Xiaowan could transfer such a huge amount of money without any hesitation, Yang Guang couldn’t help but stare at her. “Um… Miss…”

“Who are you calling miss?” Mu Xiaowan turned to scold the young man.

“Then… Ma’am?”

“Shut the hell up! Just call me Ms. Mu!” Mu Xiaowan roared.

Yang Guang couldn’t help but curse at the lady in his head. Yet he couldn’t show the emotion on his face and had to force himself to smile. “Ms. Mu, I’m here to deliver some medicinal herbs today too. I wonder if you would be interested in these wild Tianma?”

“Hm?” At first glance, Mu Xiaowan thought of Yang Guang as a disrespectful and rude young man. However, the mention of wild Tianma caught her attention immediately, and she completely disregarded her opinion toward him. She looked at the basket and asked, “Are the Tianma in there?”

“Yes.” Yang Guang nodded and showed her the contents of his basket. “I just dug them up this morning. They are as fresh as you can get.”

Mu Xiaowan didn’t say anything and picked one up. She smelled it and checked its freshness before weighing it out.

It was only after that she turned to ask Yang Guang, “You said you dug this up in the mountain?”

“Yes. How about it, Ms. Mu? Are you interested in purchasing them?”

Mu Xiaowan ignored him and questioned Chen Jianguo, “Didn’t you say there wasn’t any Tianma in your mountain?”

“Um…” Chen Jianguo gulped awkwardly. “I only found out about it today as well.”

From how Mu Xiaowan spoke about the mountain, Yang Guang could tell that she had always looked down on it. The young man couldn’t help but say, “Ms. Mu, to be honest, the mountains and rivers around here have a lot of good products. I’m pretty sure you can find any expensive medicinal herbs you want here.”

“Is that so?” Mu Xiaowan turned back to look at Yang Guang. “Then can you get me more of these? If you can, I’ll be making a long-term purchase from you. You don’t have to worry about the price either. I’ll buy them from you at the highest possible price.”

“I can’t assure you that I can find more wild ones, but I can try planting them. The effects should be the same as the wild ones,” Yang Guang replied excitedly.

Yang Guang was serious about what he said, but Mu Xiaowan burst out laughing to the point where she was having a hard time standing straight.

Once her laughter died down a little, she scoffed, “Seriously, what’s your job? How can you say something so absurd without knowing anything?”

“How is it absurd? I had plans to grow Tianma on my farm from the start. If you don’t believe me, so be it. Why do you have to mock me?” Yang Guang was a little angered by her reaction.

“Let’s say you really know how to plant Tianma, I can still tell you are exaggerating it just from you saying that the ones you plant can have the same effects as the wild ones!” Mu Xiaowan said.

That statement managed to ignite the competitive spirit inside of Yang Guang. He rolled his sleeve up and asked, “Really? Then, what if the ones I plant are as good as the wild ones? Do you want to make a bet?”

“What kind of bet?” Mu Xiaowan scoffed.

“Well, if the Tianma I plant have the same effects as the wild ones, then I win!”

“Sure thing. What’s the stake then?” Mu Xiaowan asked.

Yang Guang looked at her soft lips and gulped. “If you lose, you’ll have to kiss me. If I lose, I’ll return all the money I earned from the red bracket fungus and these Tianma to you.”

Both Chen Jianguo and Mu Xiaowan’s eyes widened at the absurd bet.

A few seconds later, Mu Xiaowan’s expression turned from a shocked one to a flustered one before finally turning into an angry one. “You little brat! How dare you mess with me?”

Before she could even finish her sentence, she raised her leg to kick Yang Guang in the chest.

If this had happened some time ago, she would’ve been able to hurt him.

However, Yang Guang was a lot different than before. All he had to do was turn sideways a little, and Mu Xiaowan missed. He then looked at her with a grin and challenged, “Looks like you don’t have the confidence that you’ll win. What? Are you scared that you’ll lose?”

“Shut up!” Mu Xiaowan yelled. “Why would I be afraid of losing? How rude can you be to a woman? Do you know that the last person who teased me like that ended up in a hospital?”

“You serious?” Yang Guang gasped, not expecting the gorgeous lady to have such a violent side.

After a moment of hesitation, Yang Guang was about to say that he was just joking when Mu Xiaowan spoke first. “Well, if you have the guts to make that bet, then I’ll play along with you.”

Yang Guang was completely surprised as he did not think she would agree with it.

“What? Scared now? Chen! Get me paper and a pen! This has to be noted down in black and white! You’ll be our witness!” Mu Xiaowan ordered.

Chen Jianguo was rendered speechless by the situation.

“Why are you two dragging me into this stupid bet?” he thought.

The owner of the medicinal herb shop knew what status Mu Xiaowan had. She was the daughter of Mu Feng, a company chairman with countless businesses under his belt. Just like all stereotypical rich kids, Mu Xiaowan was arrogant as well.

That was why Chen Jianguo thought that it was a waste for Yang Guang to make such a bet.

If Yang Guang lost, he would have to return all the money he had earned.

Even if he won, there was no way Mu Xiaowan would kiss him. She would’ve settled it with money.

As for Chen Jianguo, he didn’t want to get stuck in the middle of them.

There was no way Yang Guang would know what Chen Jianguo was thinking. Hearing that Mu Xiaowan wanted their bet to be official, he immediately nodded. “She’s right! Mr. Chen, get us paper and a pen!”

Yang Guang was confident that his Tianma would be as good as the wild products. All he had to do was plant them, and he could smooch on the beautiful lady’s sexy lips.

He couldn’t help but start to wonder what her lips would taste like.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he got.

At first, Chen Jianguo planned to stop them. But seeing how determined they were, he had no choice but to get them a pen and some paper.

“Hold up,” Yang Guang suddenly said. “Shouldn’t we calculate the price first? The red bracket fungus costs $7,000, but what about the Tianma that I brought with me?”

“How is that a problem?” Mu Xiaowan laughed and turned to Chen Jianguo. “Chen, weigh those Tianma for me.”

“Fine…” Chen Jianguo sighed and took the electronic scale that he always used.

After a few minutes, he finally said, “These total to nine pounds.”
