Chapter 3124 Challenge and Threat "Right, Secretary Lu has high status, so he could see that Yaoyao isn't an ordinary girl." Leng Changyuan agreed. He used to be a senior official in the government, so he easily figured it out. "Don't say anything before you understand the reasons." Leng Yehua also understood that, so he snapped at Song Meiyu since she embarrassed them. Song Meiyu was aggrieved when the three of them laughed at her, but she couldn't say anything about it. Since they all criticized her, she must be wrong. Leng Xiaoyao, however, didn't think it was a big deal, because she knew she had outstanding abilities. Although Lu Changweid didn't mention Mu Yiyang from the beginning to the end, she guessed that Mu Yiyang should have told Lu Changwei something. Leng Xiaoyao had only asked for leave in the morning, so she went to school after having lunch. When she arrived at school, she went to see An Chenmeng alone. An Chenmeng looked better today and she didn't have nightmares last night. "Boss, what happened? Is it a secret?" An Chenmeng was curious about the reason why Leng Xiaoyao wanted to see her alone. It must be a secret and only she could know it. "Isn't tomorrow the third day? I'm afraid your jade pendant is still harmful. Can you bring it to me tomorrow morning? I can have a look at it in case anything happens," Leng Xiaoyao said. At that time, she would say that the jade pendant was still covered with evil power and she had to keep it for a few days. "No problem, I'll bring it to you tomorrow morning." An Chenmeng didn't think much about it and agreed. Anyway, she would listen to Leng Xiaoyao no matter what she asked now. "Oh, I need to go to City Yun this weekend, so I'm afraid I can't join you in having a big meal. Do you want to change the time to next week or do you want to go with other girls?" Leng Xiaoyao said. She had almost forgotten, and it would be impolite if she stood them at that time. "What? You're going to City Yun this weekend?" An Chenmeng was disappointed, but she knew Leng Xiaoyao was busy with business, so she couldn't stop her. "If so, we can have the meal next week. You're the most important person. If you're absent, it'll be meaningless," An Chenmeng said. "Sure, I'll tell Xiong Manxin and the others," Leng Xiaoyao said. Back in the classroom, Leng Xiaoyao told Xiong Manxin and the other girls about the change. They didn't think it was a problem. After all, Leng Xiaoyao's business was more important. ... Ever since Qin Wentao lost in the game with Ling Tianqi, he was always thinking how to pay him back. He had an idea, but he had to be careful about the consequences. Today, Qin Wentao had an opportunity. Ling Tianqi had two friends who came from the capital to deal with something, and they came to meet Ling Tianqi as well. One of them proposed to go to a casino, so they went to Fengyun Casino after having a meal. Because Qin Wentao paid special attention to Ling Tianqi trying to find a chance to pay him back, he immediately heard that Ling Tianqi was in Fengyun Casino. Without delay, he called several of his friends and went to Fengyun Casino right away. Qin Wentao wasn't bad at gambling. Most importantly, he had a relationship with a junior manager of Fengyun Casino, so he planned to trap Ling Tianqi. When Ling Tianqi saw Qin Wentao in the casino, he didn't think it was a coincidence, so he stayed alert. Qin Wentao didn't care what Ling Tianqi was thinking. Even if Ling Tianqi saw that he came for him, it didn't matter. Therefore, once he noticed Ling Tianqi, he said, "Hi, Mr. Ling, Mr. Pei, and Mr. Feng, what a coincidence! Why don't we have a few rounds?" "Qin Wentao, what are you scheming now?" Ling Tianqi said in annoyance. There was no need for him to be polite given their relationship. "Mr. Ling, are you the persecutory type? Why are you suspicious of everyone all day? Aren't you tired?" Qin Wentao asked. He didn't feel guilty at all even though Ling Tianqi saw through him. "I'm on alert only for you. Is it wrong? You must know what our relationship is," Ling Tianqi said. "Qin Wentao, you better keep a distance away from us. We have no interest in playing tricks with you," said Pei Heran. "Oh, am I so scary in your eyes? Fine! If you don't dare to gamble with me, I won't mention it again, but if there are any rumors about that, don't take it to heart," Qin Wentao said, trying to humiliate them. Ling Tianqi and the others weren't very mature and stable. They were young and impulsive, so they were immediately annoyed even though they understood that Qin Wentao did it on purpose. "Qin Wentao, are you challenging and threatening us?" Pei Heran asked in annoyance, looking at Qin Wentao unkindly. "Don't think of me as a bad guy. I just feel it's rare to meet you all. We can gamble a few rounds for fun. Anyway, this isn't my place. Why are you so afraid of me?" Qin Wentao said, mocking them. Ling Tianqi and the others understood that they would be disdained in rumors if they didn't accept the challenge again. They didn't want people to think that they were afraid of Qin Wentao, but Ling Tianqi was with his friends now, so he needed to ask about their opinions. Even if he agreed, he still needed to talk to Pei Heran and the others about that. Therefore, Ling Tianqi said, "If so, we might be seen as cowards if we say no again, but my friends are with me right now. I'm afraid I can't gamble with you right away. If you don't mind, we can do it later." Although Ling Tianqi's friends didn't mind it, they said nothing, because they thought that Ling Tianqi might need time to prepare. If they interrupted, they might ruin Ling Tianqi's plan. "No problem. It's still early anyway. Why don't we gather here at 10 am? I believe that you will keep your promise, Mr. Ling." Qin Wentao agreed. He also needed some time to get prepared.
