nGu Chu immediately made an accusation. “Feng Jia, you left me alone at home. Why did you come here to celebrate the first anniversary with them?”
n
n“I can explain this!” Meng Lang was very lively. He immediately raised his hand and said enthusiastically, “Feng Jia was looking for Lu Shen, but Lu Shen was with us and came here, so he followed him here.”
n
nSo that was it.
n
nGu Chu sat down at an empty seat by the Mahjong table. She didn’t know if it was Lu Shen or Feng Jia’s seat, but it didn’t matter. She looked at the tiles and played a tile. “How do you plan to celebrate?”
n
nMeng Lang said firmly, “We are planning to celebrate in the mountains. We want to relive our hiking experience from a year ago!”
n
n“Boring.” Gu Chu pursed her lips. “Besides, it rained last night, and the mountain road is still slippery now.”
n
n“The weather forecast says that it will be sunny today and tomorrow. We’ll stay in tonight and hike tomorrow morning. The mountain road will be dry then,” Meng Lang said excitedly.
n
nGu Chu thought about it and agreed. She still didn’t know when the fish would take the bait, so she should create more opportunities.
n
nLu Shen sat at the last seat. It was obvious that Gu Chu’s seat was Feng Jia’s, and he stood behind her.
n
nWhen it was Lu Shen’s turn, he asked, “Why didn’t you ask Lin Yin to come along?”
n
nGu Chu was about to say something, but Meng Lang beat him to it. “I did. Birdie wants to practice her choreography, so she can’t come.”
n
nGu Chu glanced at him. “Why did you say her nickname? Aren’t you afraid that she’ll beat you up? !”
n
n“Hey, speaking of nicknames, do you guys know Chuchu’s nickname?” Lu Shen interrupted.
n
nEveryone looked at him curiously. They had known each other for so many years, but they really didn’t know. Even Feng Jia looked over curiously.
n
nAt this moment, Gu Chu played a tile and shouted, “I win!”
n
nThen, she spread her hand in front of Lu Shen. “Lu Shen, give me your courtyard!”
n
nLu Shen could not help but laugh. “You have such a big appetite.”
n
nShe did not expect her own cousin to betray her and wanted to expose her nickname in public! She sneered. “You can’t afford it, right?”
n
nLu Shen did not continue, “Do you have no place to live? Feng Jia, quickly take her back!”
n
n“Your courtyard is not bad. I like it too,” Feng Jia added indifferently.
n
nLu Shen: “…”
n
nFeng Jia patted Meng Lang on the shoulder, motioning for him to step aside. “Let’s play another round. If you lose this round, give up your courtyard.”
n
nLu Shen immediately stood up and waved his hand. “Only a fool would want to play with the couple.”
n
nMeng Lang was very happy watching the show. He said, “How stingy. You don’t live in your courtyard anyway. What’s wrong with giving it to Chuchu?”
n
nWang Xiao was expressionless. “A bet is a bet.”
n
nGu Chu had a look of disdain. “Can’t afford to lose. Don’t tell others you’re my cousin.”
n
nLu Shen: “…”
n
nHow did he suddenly get bullied by the group?
n
nHe was annoyed and amused. “I’ve never seen you care so much about that courtyard. Why are you so persistent today? Do you really have no place to live?”
n
nMeng Lang was also surprised. “Even if your sister is back, you won’t be kicked out, right?”
n
nHe had opened Pandora’s box. Gu Chu looked at him with a fake smile. “You want to lose the suite to me?”
n
nLu Shen immediately stopped it. “I can’t give you that courtyard of mine. I have to keep it for your future cousin-in-law. How about this? I drove that Porsche here today. Don’t you like it? I’ll give it to you if you win this round.”
n
nGu Chu felt that it was not a loss, so she quickly said, “Then you can’t go back on your word.”
n
n“I won’t go back on my word, but I have one condition.” He stood up and gave way. “Feng Jia, sit here and helped me. Chuchu, as long as you win against Feng Jia, I’ll give it to you.”
n
n“You!” Gu Chu covered her mouth. “You actually want us to kill each other?! You’re cruel!”
n
nHe quickly shot Feng Jia a look, hinting that he should go easy on her.
n
n“Yes, I am.” Lu Shen’s attitude was calm. “Feng Jia, I know what you’re capable of winning. If you deliberately go easy on her, this round doesn’t count!”
n
nGu Chu: “Tsk!”
n
nHer plan to cheat failed.
n
nFeng Jia said calmly, “Let’s shuffle the tiles.”
n
nIn fact, they were all willing to dote on Gu Chu, so the other two went easy on her.
n
nHowever, Feng Jia was the only one who refused to relent. He played so seriously and didn’t seem like he would lose.
n
nMeng Lang smiled bitterly. “Feng Jia is so smart. I’ve never won against him.”
n
nGu Chu didn’t expect Feng Jia to be so serious. She didn’t even stand a chance of winning.
n
nShe was really angry!
