"Wow, Sis Ying, the ever serious and mature Qin Hanyue actually has a gaming room in his house? This must be newly decorated right? He did this for you huh? These are all the latest models that just came out."
"Wow, this equipment, wow, this big screen, Qin Hanyue really knows how to enjoy life. Come on Sis Ying, let's play a couple of rounds."
The robot butler came in carrying fruits with Qin Hanyue's voice, diligently presenting offerings.
As soon as he heard the voice, Huo Chengdong's scalp tingled, and hearing "wife" directly made him cringe, feeling creeped out rather than sweet.
Watching the robot butler address her deferentially as "wife" again and again, Huo Chengdong felt an itchiness all over his body and could barely sit still.
Qiao Ying: "Hemorrhoids acting up?"
Huo Chengdong: "No... Sis Ying, can you make this thing leave? Its voice... makes me feel like the real deal is watching me, I've lost my feel for the gameplay and can't move properly."
Qiao Ying: "If you suck then you suck, why make so many excuses."
Huo Chengdong: "You're not one of us, you don't understand the fear us Capital city folks have towards Qin Hanyue. Even though he's become your partner now and has gained some semblance of normal humanity, changing from evil to good, in my eyes he's still..."
Qiao Ying: "Screw your changing from evil to good."
Huo Chengdong: "Hehe - Sis Ying, does Qin Hanyue really call you that in private?"
Huo Chengdong simply could not imagine someone as cold and ascetic as Qin Hanyue tenderly addressing a girl so much younger than him as "wife", he didn't dare imagine it.
Qiao Ying was too lazy to answer this silly question of his.
Huo Chengdong kept chattering away as he played the game, asking intermittently: "Sis Ying, you're living together now, when are you getting engaged and married? You're not really going to marry Qin Hanyue are you? Getting married isn't child's play, and you're still in school. You have to be prudent, extra prudent, especially since it's Qin Hanyue. First off there's the age issue which I've nagged you about already, also he has to manage such a huge company, how will he have time to accompany you? Have you thought it through clearly? If someday you regret it, given Qin Hanyue's identity that everyone calls Third Master, and his all-encompassing power, as long as he doesn't agree, you won't be able to leave the Qin family. So you must..."
Huo Chengdong trailed off as something on Qiao Ying's hand caught the light - "F*ck, a ring!?"
Seeing it clearly, Huo Chengdong bellowed in disbelief.
He forgot all about the game as he asked in increasing volume and pitch, the questions vibrating right into the ears: "You're engaged? When? How did I not know about this? Why didn't you invite me?"
Qiao Ying: "No banquet, too troublesome."
Huo Chengdong: "You didn't invite me to your engagement banquet? I didn't get any news at all, did my grandpa and them attend? Which day was it? How come no one told me about it?"
Huo Chengdong felt extremely wronged.
Qiao Ying speechlessly said: "The entire proposal from start to finish took less than 3 minutes. If you had taken part in those brief 3 minutes, what role would you have played, a ring bearer?"
Huo Chengdong: "You haven't held the wedding banquet yet? I knew it, no way Sis Ying would do something so big without calling me. So when's the engagement banquet? You agreed to him just like that?"
Qiao Ying: "No banquet, too annoying."
Huo Chengdong: "Then when's the wedding? Can I be a groomsman? Me and my brother together. I'll have to go order tuxedos, black looks good. Get one for my brother too."
"Oh-" Huo Chengdong suddenly thought of something, his eyes lighting up. Throwing the game aside again, he asked Qiao Ying: "Does this mean I can block Qin Hanyue's door? And hide his shoes, make him look for them? Set up a wine list and make him drink, can't get in the door until he finishes them all. Let me think, what else can I do? I can make him sing, if he doesn't sing nicely he can't get in. Make him jump rope, if he can't do 100 jumps he can't get in. That's good, the esteemed Third Master Qin, singing and jumping rope, must be quite a sight. Not only would he have to obediently do as I say, he'd have to give me a red envelope too." The more he thought about it the more thrilled he became.
Qiao Ying looked at him like he was an idiot: "You want to be both a groomsman and block the door... you might as well be the bride and groom yourself."
Huo Chengdong: "Oh right, I forgot the groomsmen are on Qin Hanyue's side. Then I'll be a mole, I won't let them find the shoes. I'll spike their wine with vodka, get them drunk off their ass."
Qiao Ying: "You've already married me off with this wedding, Qin Hanyue is probably looking forward to these kinds of traditions and pranks."
Huo Chengdong: "Hmm? What do you mean Sis Ying? You're already regretting it? It's not too late, take the ring off and let's run right now."
Qiao Ying speechlessly looked at the expectant Huo Chengdong.
Qin Hanyue's reputation really was that bad, or was it just Huo Chengdong who saw him in such a dark light. If you didn't know better, you'd think she was engaged to a man-eating demon.
Qiao Ying: "Too much trouble - more enemies ahead, watch the 260 direction, attack when they get close."
"Oh Sis Ying, they built a new racetrack in the west side of the city. That venue is 3 times bigger than a normal racetrack, but it's private and not fully constructed yet. I snuck in to take a look the other day, guess what I saw? The sports cars were parked in rows like cabbages, 6 whole rows of them. And I saw that white Lamborghini Concept S, there's only 1 in the whole world, and someone already bought it before it even hit the market. Industry insiders estimated it would cost upwards of 380 million yuan, I was hoping to ask Grandpa to get me one."
Thinking about that gorgeous racetrack and those cars, Huo Chengdong felt itchy with longing: "Sis Ying, do you have any way to get the owner to let us go play around on his racetrack?"
Qiao Ying asked: "When do you want to go?"
Her words and tone got Huo Chengdong excited: "Anytime, whenever you're free." Sounded easy enough, surely she wasn't thinking of asking Qin Hanyue for help right? That would definitely work.
Qiao Ying, eyes fixed on the screen: "I'll let the person in charge of the racetrack know later, you can just go straight in when you arrive."
"???" Huo Chengdong tentatively asked: "You... know the person in charge there?"
Qiao Ying: "Think bigger, that racetrack is mine."
Huo Chengdong goggled: "Yours!?"
Qiao Ying: "Qin Hanyue's gift - betrothal gift. There's two more, one in Magic Capital, one in Fog Capital."
Three racetracks, plus all the mines he owned in M Continent, a God's Armory, an Arkenlin. 8% of the Qin Group's shares. Qin Hanyue used a full one third of everything he owned as betrothal gift for Qiao Ying.
Ever since the Wuma Family fell, Arkenlin had expanded under Qin Hanyue's sole leadership, becoming his military production base.
And now it all belonged to Qiao Ying.
Huo Chengdong gasped. Swallowing once, he was rendered speechless regarding Qin Hanyue's generous character.
Huo Chengdong scooted closer to Qiao Ying, face eager and trying to get more: "Sis Ying, can I drive those cars?"
Qiao Ying glanced at him. Those shining innocent eyes and eager expression, she really couldn't bear to refuse: "Go ahead."
The two were absorbed in their game when Qin Hanyue returned.
Lost in the game and letting loose, Huo Chengdong accidentally glanced up and nearly bumped into Qin Hanyue's legs.
His arrogant and devilish laughter stopped abruptly. Looking up to meet Qin Hanyue's still gracious gaze, Huo Chengdong nearly leapt away on the spot.
The game wasn't even finished yet but Huo Chengdong immediately dropped the controller and left.
Qin Hanyue: "Young Master Huo isn't staying for dinner?"
Huo Chengdong: "No need, I don't eat that stuff."
He hurriedly put on his shoes and swiftly made his escape.
Qiao Ying: "That guy, we're on the final lap."
Qin Hanyue walked over, took off his shoes, and sat down behind Qiao Ying, pulling her into his lap: "Why sit on the floor?"
He picked up the game controller Huo Chengdong had tossed aside: "I'll play with you."
Qiao Ying: "Back so early?"
Qin Hanyue: "Missed you - this is my first time playing this game, can you teach me?" Qin Hanyue started studying it.
Qiao Ying: "You lie down, watch me operate it."
Qin Hanyue: "Okay."
Qin Hanyue lay down and was guided to fly, while learning how to operate it.
Qin Hanyue became interested: "Shall I play with you for a while?"
Qiao Ying: "Sure."
Qin Hanyue: "Let's compete?"
Qiao Ying: "Compete in what?"
Qin Hanyue: "In number of kills."
Qiao Ying: "And then?"
Qin Hanyue held her in his arms: "If you get more kills, you can ask for anything you want. If I get more kills..." He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, his words making one's face flush red: "For each additional kill I get, we'll do it once."
As soon as the words came out, a certain man who had just started to experience intimacy, and was beginning to crave it, immediately became dry-mouthed with anticipation.
Qiao Ying glanced up, her tone calm and steady: "Alright, if I win, for each additional kill I get, you sleep on the couch for a day."
Qin Hanyue's expression froze: "That won't do."
Qiao Ying: "Getting cold feet already?"
Qin Hanyue: "Let's change it."
Qiao Ying didn't care: "Jumping off now~ Get ready to make the couch your home this month."
"Wow, Sis Ying, the ever serious and mature Qin Hanyue actually has a gaming room in his house? This must be newly decorated right? He did this for you huh? These are all the latest models that just came out."
"Wow, this equipment, wow, this big screen, Qin Hanyue really knows how to enjoy life. Come on Sis Ying, let's play a couple of rounds."
