She Holds the World After Being Reborn-Chapter 424 - 423: Borrowing Your Precious Place, This is a Life and Death Game

Chapter 424: Chapter 423: Borrowing Your Precious Place, This is a Life and Death Game

"What are you still doing standing there, girl?" Qin Xiao kicked the maid. "Hurry up and kowtow to the lady, thank her for saving your life."

The maid immediately ran to Yan Wanqing’s side and knelt on both knees. "Thank you, lady."

Yan Wanqing did not utter a word, she closed her eyes and then slowly opened them again.

Yan Hongzhao already had the maid helped up by her side.

"Alright, go and wait over there, I reckon the lady does not want to see you right now," Qin Xiao said cheerfully, and the maid quickly ran off to stand to the side, trembling, fearing that she would again be caught up in the crossfire of these demigods clashing.

"Since the host likes to play big, why don’t we take this third round outside?" Yan Wanqing suggested.

Qin Xiao, who loved thrills, immediately brightened up, "Heh, my lady, you truly are extraordinary. I, Qin Xiao, just love someone like you."

Yan Wanqing ignored him and walked towards the outside, Qin Xiao tried to follow but was blocked by Yan Hongzhao.

Yan Hongzhao glared coldly at him and then rolled her eyes indifferently and turned to follow Yan Wanqing.

Qin Xiao laughed, "This girl, she really has a fiery temper." He just loved these tough and fiery tempered ones, they made it exciting when it came to breaking them in, unlike those spineless who would submit after a single hit, which were seriously no fun at all.

Therefore, the more Qin Xiao watched these sisters, the more excited he became, feeling his desire to conquer stirring within him.

He hurriedly followed them, completely oblivious to Ji Yuntai staring at his back as if looking at a dead man.

He really wanted to snap this maggot’s neck right now.

Ji Yuntai forcibly suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes.

Because of the previous buildup, when this group of people came down from upstairs—

Ji Yuntai deliberately shouted loudly.

"Qin Xiao and the lady have set up a gambling game, best two out of three rounds, with both sides currently tied. The third round will be set at the Governor’s Office drill ground, everyone is welcome to come and watch!"

When Qin Xiao heard the noise, he turned his head to look.

Ji Yuntai shouted even louder.

"Qin Xiao and the lady have set up a gambling game, best two out of three rounds, with both sides currently tied. The third round will be set at the Governor’s Office drill ground, everyone is welcome to come and watch!"

"Qin Xiao and the lady have set up a gambling game, best two out of three rounds, with both sides currently tied. The third round will be set at the Governor’s Office drill ground, everyone is welcome to come and watch!"

...

Qin Xiao: "..." His steps quickened as he moved forward.

What a madman, unmanageable, but he could avoid him.

Thanks to Ji Yuntai’s resonant shouting, the Governor’s Office drill ground was swarming with people.

Qin Xiao glanced around at the crowd, feeling impatient. "Isn’t this Governor’s Office usually inaccessible? How come everyone can enter today, it’s really strange. What is Hao Ren doing?"

At this moment, the noise was deafening, everyone knew that he, Qin Xiao, and Yan Wanqing had set up a gambling game, and if Qin Xiao lost, the entire Tianxiang Industry would belong to Yan Wanqing.

If Yan Wanqing lost, the two women and one man would be packed off to the Qin Residence.

It seemed a bit unfair, but taking a closer look at the two sisters plus Ji Yuntai, the crowd thought that Qin Xiao might be still getting off slightly better.

"Since Qin Xiao likes thrills, then I, the lady, will accompany the gentleman to the end. Our third round—" Yan Wanqing paused, her hand slowly reaching up to the hanging bow and arrows on the drill ground, her lips curling into a deep smile. "Let’s gamble with our lives!"

What?!

Nobody expected this seemingly fragile pregnant lady to have such a resolve.

Qin Xiao was also taken aback.

He never expected that Yan Wanqing would actually want to gamble their lives with him.

"Is Qin Xiao scared?" Yan Wanqing’s gaze was provocative as she looked at Qin Xiao, suggesting he was less of a man than she.

Qin Xiao’s mind went blank, he immediately grabbed the bow and arrows nearby. "Who says I’m scared!"

"Let’s compete then, whoever is scared is a coward!" Qin Xiao shouted loudly.

"Good! Qin Xiao is truly a heroic figure!" Ji Yuntai loudly said from the side.

As he shouted, the people in the drill ground joined in, and this time Qin Xiao really couldn’t back down.

Yan Wanqing gestured with her hand, and Yan Hongzhao brought over ink, paper, and brush.

"This round, it’s a matter of life and death, we need to sign a death waiver, during the gambling game, regardless of life or death, no party should trouble the other for any reason," Yan Hongzhao enunciated each word.

Her voice was low, speaking with a resonant voice to ensure everyone could clearly hear every word.

Yan Wanqing was the first to sign her name.

At that moment, she saw a bustling crowd and then caught sight of the Crown Prince holding a fan in front of his face, standing at the back of the crowd.

She was unfazed and winked at him.

The Crown Prince, who had initially planned to confront and accuse, instantly lost his anger.

How could he remain angry?

His wife was throwing him flirtatious looks; who could withstand that?

The Crown Prince wished he could send all the spring breeze in his eyes over to Yan Wanqing at that moment.

At this time, Qin Xiao looked over each character on the life-and-death agreement. Seeing that Yan Wanqing had signed first, he held the brush, the ink slowly dripping from the tip, slightly frowned, and finally wrote down his own name and then stamped his handprint.

"This game, everyone present is a witness!"

What kind of bet was this that they needed to sign a life-and-death agreement?

"In this game, both parties will balance a melon on their heads, and whoever dodges will lose," Yan Hongzhao brought out two sweet melons, palm-sized and very round.

As she was about to hand a melon to Qin Xiao, she saw him raise his hand: "Since we are playing, let’s make it bigger."

He stared intently at Yan Wanqing. "Betting on melons is meaningless—let’s bet on lychees!"

Lychees!!

How tiny were those?!

They still needed to be held by hand.

Qin Xiao must have been seeking the lady’s life!

His thoughts were truly vicious!

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone once again surged with excitement.

Only the Crown Prince was very calm, as if he had heard nothing at all.

He had blind confidence in his Wanwan.

Today, let alone lychees, even if they were smaller, like longans, given Wanwan’s skill to shoot accurately at a hundred steps, there was no need to worry at all.

But others were unaware, particularly Hao Ren.

He had just made his way from outside and saw people squeezing into the government office.

After finally managing to squeeze in, he discovered that his fellow student had set up a betting game on his training field and had attracted almost the entire county to watch.

Looking more closely at the two people in the betting game, it was even more sensational.

It was the lady from yesterday and Qin Xiao!

Who was Qin Xiao?

He was a villain who dared to eat raw meat!

How could the gentle and pregnant lady possibly win against Qin Xiao?

Thus, Hao Ren, who hadn’t grasped the situation yet, immediately pushed forward. "This won’t do, this won’t do!"

He took two steps in three strides, first looked worriedly at Yan Wanqing to make sure she was alright, then wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to Qin Xiao, "What is this spectacle, Qin? Why have you come to my training field today?"

"I’m borrowing your prestigious place for a life-and-death game," Qin Xiao said with a half-smile, looking at Yan Wanqing.

He wanted to see how much courage this woman had.

Switching to lychees, she’ll probably scare herself silly soon!

He heard that women who are pregnant are even more exciting to play with.

Thinking this, Qin Xiao had already thought about how he would play with her later on.

Yan Wanqing, expressionless, stood her ground. "County Magistrate Hao, the life-and-death agreement has been signed, and this matter doesn’t concern you much; please leave the field."

"How does it not concern me?" This was his jurisdiction, and he would have to take responsibility if someone died!

Hao Ren was about to speak again, when Ji Yuntai put his hand on his shoulder from behind. "County Magistrate Hao, you probably can’t manage this."

The decisions made by Yan Wanqing could not be changed by anyone.

Moreover, he also believed Yan Wanqing could win.

Competing in archery against Princess Anping, how many people in the world could win?

Certainly, Qin Xiao was not among them.
