Donor nodded. “Alright!”
Xuanyuan Chen placed the white chess piece beside Donor’s chess piece. “I bet they won’t succeed.” Xuanyuan Chen had known Beatrice since he was young. He had seen clearly how much she hated men. He didn’t think a person like Beatrice could marry a man, let alone a weakling like Feng Yuncheng.
Donor also picked up his chess piece and engraved a row of words on it. “My bet is a bottle of holy water.”
The Holy Water of Light was much more precious than the puppet.
Seeing this, more and more students followed suit and placed their white stones.
In the end, only Yu Huang, Mo Yuelou, and Estelle had yet to place their bets.
The reason Estelle didn’t bet was because he was poor and couldn’t take out a decent wager. Knowing how poor Estelle was, Donor skipped over Estelle and swept his gaze towards Yu Huang.
Everyone looked at Yu Huang.
Fang Peipei also smiled and said, “Yu Huang, you’re good friends with Fourth Brother. Are you too embarrassed to play with us?”
Only then did Yu Huang walk to the table.
She stared at the pile of white stones on the left for two seconds before finally extending her right hand. However, her hand didn’t reach into the white Go jar, but fell into the black Go jar.
Seeing this, Donor exclaimed, “Are you planning to support your buddy to the end?”
“How loyal!”
Even though she knew that Beatrice and Feng Yun wouldn’t succeed, Yu Huang still chose to be a black piece. If this wasn’t out of loyalty, what was it?
Yu Huang used her spiritual power to carve two words on the chess piece—
[Villa.]
“I’ve discussed it with Sheng Xiao before. If a good friend is getting married, I’ll give him a villa. So, my wager is a villa.” Then, Yu Huang threw the black chess piece to the right of the chessboard.
The first black star finally appeared on the clean table.
Donor asked her, “Which villa? Don’t tell me it’s a villa in a rural area. It won’t be worth much.”
“From Jingdu.”
Donor nodded. “That’s more like it.” Donor looked at Mo Yuelou again. “Second Brother Mo, what’s your choice?” Donor was an elven prince, and Mo Yuelou was the prince of the Divine Moon King. The two countries had dealings with each other, so they were old acquaintances.
Now that they were both students of the Holy Spirit Academy, it was appropriate for Donor to address Mo Yuelou as Second Brother Mo.
Donor thought that since Mo Yuelou was Beatrice’s closest relative, he knew how afraid Beatrice was of men better than anyone. Donor thought that Mo Yuelou didn’t approve of Feng Yuncheng being with Beatrice.
The others thought so too.
However, Mo Yuelou and Yu Huang extended their hands towards the black Go jar.
Seeing this, Donor’s smile froze for a second, but it quickly appeared again. “Second Brother Mo, you also think that they’ll start dating?”
Mo Yuelou didn’t answer. “I hope it works.”
There was a cage in Beatrice’s heart that imprisoned her real soul. It wasn’t easy for his sister to muster up the courage to step out of the cage. Mo Yuelou hoped that Beatrice could really walk out of the cage, escape the psychological cage, and be completely free.
Therefore, he chose the black piece.
Mo Yuelou wrote a sentence on the chess piece—
[A quarter of my wealth.]
When Xuanyuan Chen saw the words Mo Yuelou had written on the black piece, he was surprised and asked, “Why a quarter?”
Mo Yuelou said, “My wealth is divided into four parts. One is for the country, one is for the families of the soldiers who died in battle for the country, one is for my future lover and child, and the last is the dowry I reserved for my sister.”
He placed the black piece on the chessboard and said, “One day, on the day of Cuisi’s wedding, let’s open this chessboard together. I will definitely let my only sister get married in a glorious manner.”
Hearing this, the students stopped joking.
They suddenly realized that it was blasphemy to start this bet.
No relationship should be made fun of.
So what if Fourth Brother was weak?
He dared to accept Beatrice’s challenge and became her first boyfriend. This was impressive in itself. He was indeed weak, but his attitude towards love was much braver than people like them.
Beatrice’s beauty was top-notch even in the Holy Spirit Academy. Her sexy figure, flawless appearance, powerful combat strength, and powerful background were all her shining points.
Her popularity in the academy was comparable to Yu Huang’s.
Although Yu Huang was beautiful and dazzling, she was already taken. The person behind her was the strongest student, Sheng Xiao.
Who would dare to snatch Sheng Xiao’s woman?
Before they could even reach the corner of Yu Huang’s shirt, Sheng Xiao would raise his forty-meter-long knife and charge at them.
Thus, the single and beautiful Beatrice became the idol of other single men, their dream goddess. But who among them dared to pursue love as bravely as Feng Yuncheng did?
No one did.
Just based on this, they had no right to look down on Feng Yuncheng.
After figuring this out, some male students couldn’t help but ask Donor, “Can we go back on our words? I want to vote for the black piece.” Even Mo Yuelou believed that the two of them could succeed. They also felt that Beatrice and Feng Yuncheng could succeed.
At this moment, Yu Huang took a step forward and placed her seal on the chessboard. She said, “The bet has been made, so you can’t go back on it.” She slapped the chessboard into the sky, and it hung high above the activity room.
Yu Huang clapped her hands and said, “I’ve already sealed the chessboard. The next time it’s opened, either Fourth Brother and Beatrice will get married, or they’ll break up.”
“Okay!”
After making the bet, Yu Huang returned to the dormitory.
When she passed by the third floor where the boys lived, she saw Sheng Xiao waiting there.
Sheng Xiao stood in the stairwell from the third floor to the fourth floor. He leaned against the armrest and his tall figure cast a long shadow on the stairs. The shadow extended to Yu Huang’s toes.
Yu Huang stopped and looked up at Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao smiled and asked, “I heard that Fourth Brother and Her Highness started dating?”
“I guess so.”
Fourth Brother had finally wooed the person he loved. Yu Huang was quite happy for him. Her mood, which was gloomy because of the Grand State Master’s matter, became much better. “They even made a bet. The others bet that the two of them won’t succeed. Only the prince and I bet that the two of them will succeed.”
Sheng Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked Yu Huang, “Why do you think they started dating?”
Yu Huang walked up to Sheng Xiao. Her toes were on the same level as Sheng Xiao’s, and were squeezed between Sheng Xiao’s feet. Half of her feet were hanging outside the stairs. Sheng Xiao was worried that she would fall back, so he wrapped his arms around Yu Huang’s waist.
This posture was very ambiguous and charming.
Yu Huang was much shorter than Sheng Xiao. She raised her head and rubbed her forehead against Sheng Xiao’s chin. A faint stubble on his chin brushed past her forehead. It was itchy.
Yu Huang liked this feeling very much.
She rubbed her face against him gently and said softly, “Although Fourth Brother is a little weak, who dares to say that they can’t get together? Back then, I was so ugly, but I even got you.” Only with deep affection could an ugly woman get a handsome man.
Besides, Feng Yuncheng had a good appearance.
Sheng Xiao couldn’t help but smile when he heard Yu Huang’s words. He said, “My feelings for you have nothing to do with your looks. Even if you become ugly, I will still like you.” She was who he wanted but couldn’t get in his previous life. She was also precious in this life.
The first time he saw her, he was attracted by the soul under her ugly appearance.
Therefore, in a relationship, good looks was only a plus. A compatible soul was a must.
Yu Huang was Sheng Xiao’s must.
