Chapter 129 - The Game Starts Now

-----With Wei Wan------

Sitting in the corner with red eyes and a twisted face, Wei Wan was unfocused throughout that time. She hadn't expected that Li Rong would break up with her just like that. She had pleaded and begged him to stay with her, but he didn't budge.

Saying the same thing again and again, Li Rong justified his actions with the excuse that the feelings they had were just puppy love. He had made up his mind to marry Yue Wan and it was time to get over his feelings for Wei Wan.

Gritting her teeth, Wei Wan resented Yue Wan as she thought to herself: 'Why does she get everything so easily?'

Suddenly, Wei Wan felt pain in her elbow, she flinched in distress: "Ah, that hurts."

"What were you doing?" A voice as hard as the blade of a shovel could be heard behind her ears.

Without looking up, Wei Wan knew that that person was her father.

Wei Xing put on a smiling face before turning around to see him, but before she could move he had grasped her elbow so strongly that it was so close to breaking. "I told you repeatedly to accompany Mr. Guo, didn't I?"

Wei Wan lowered her head with tears streaming down her cheek, she nodded: "I am sorry."

Now that her only hope to survive was destroyed, she could not do anything to aggravate her father. She could only do as she was told.

Wei Xing muttered some orders in her ear and then left her alone.

Pressing her lips together, Wei Wan looked at Elder Xiao with panic on her face.

-----At the same time, with Xiao Ran-----

As soon those gifts were delivered to her Grandfather, Xiao Ran moved to meet the rest of the investors for her new entertainment project.

But before she could move, a figure appeared and blocked her.

With a scowling eye, Xiao Ran sneered: "Jing Zhe!"

Jing Zhe never had good intentions towards Xiao Ran from childhood, so Xiao Ran was a little wary of her: "What do you want?"

Pulling her brows together in a frown, Jing Zhe gibed: "Stop acting as if you are the queen of everything."

"It's true, even if you don't say it. I will be the Queen of the Xiao Family sooner or later," Xiao Ran rebuked in a distant tone.

With a red face and wrinkled nose, Jing Zhe pointed at Xiao Ran and huffed: "I have never seen anyone as shameless as you."

Xiao Ran gave a profound sign and expressed: "Why are you here?"

"Someone named Miss Wan asked you to meet her in room 307. She told me that it's urgent."

Xiao Ran's mind flashed to Yue Wan's face, but still, she asked: "What did she look like? Which family is she from? Did she have a pet in her hands?"

Jing Zhe hated being questioned and she felt like she was being interrogated. She became querulous and demanding: "I am not your servant, unlike those guys. If you want to go, go if you don't, then stay put. Stop using that commending tone with me."

Jing Zhe puffed with irritation as she moved past Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran knew Jing Zhe's petty behaviour, so she searched for Yue Wan's shadow at the party, but didn't find her.

After thinking about it for a moment, she decided: "Maybe I should check the room first."

Just as Xiao Ran walked toward the elevator, two sets of eyes stared at her with a victory smile on their lips.

----With Yue Wan----

When the door to Xiao Ran's elevator closed at that exact time, Yue Wan exited from the restroom.

She moved back to her brother and hinted: "Big Brother, its time."

Yue Xiang turned from his companion and smiled at her: "All done."

Pressing an index finger near her ear and propping chin on the rest of her clenched fingers, Yue Wan tapped her cheek in rhythm: "The game starts now."

------Back to Elder Xiao-----

The rest of the highly influential families presented their Gifts one by one.

Surprisingly, Elder Xiao was really glad and much happier with Bro Su's priceless gift! So he didn't care about those nameless gifts.

Even after Li Rong had put in so much effort in selecting his gift, Elder Xiao waved his had for Mr. Hong to go and take it.

The Xiao Elder didn't have a good option about him in the first place, so he didn't bother talking with them.

Clenching his jaw, Li Zhi scowled at the Xiao Elder for humiliating them.

----------

Nevertheless, the gift that the Elder Xiao was looking forward to the most was from the Little Yue Girl.

Before the praising and excitement about the expensive chess could calm down, the Yue siblings appeared before him.

Yue Xiang walked towards Elder Xiao with Yue Wan and gracefully wished him, "Teacher, happy birthday."

"Happy Birthday, Master Xiao." Yue Wan's voice was as delicate and as powerless as a small bird.

"I prepared a special gift, hope you accept it." Yue Wan gave her brother a look to bring their gift forward.

Elder Xiao's lips curved into a smirk: 'What surprise you hid under that face of yours!'

However, before Yue Xiang could speak, a flushed Mr. Hong rushed toward Elder Xiao and whispered something inaudible to others.

Suddenly, Elder Xiao shouted: "What? Where?"

Mr. Hong, with a downcasted face, replied: "Room 101."

Elder Xiao hastened his steps with a deeply uptight face, and the guests followed him with a confounded expression on their faces.

In the corner, when Wei Xing and Shen Qing saw that almost all the guests have fallen for their trap, they exchanged a look before following them with a face immersed in the excitement.

---Outside room 101----

Outside the door, just as everyone gathered, they heard a man's panting voice and groans emerging from behind the door.

Those women who came to watch the exciting show were presently blushing as they heard a man's howl from inside.
