Chapter 249: Xu Liang and Long Ao, Head to Head!

“Wang Haoran…”

“I even helped you trouble Long Ao…”

Hearing Wang Haoran say she liked Long Ao, Chen Muyu anxiously explained.

But Wang Haoran still teased her, “I get it, I get it, love turns to hate! You love him deeply, so now you hate him bitterly!”

“Boo… I said I don’t like him! I really don’t!”

However, Wang Haoran mimicked a certain host, saying in an annoying tone—

“Really? I don’t believe it!”

“You——!”

“You bastard, why don’t you believe me!”

Finally, Chen Muyu stood up in a hurry.

Then, she raised her skirt high.

“——I even wore this kind of outfit just for you to see!”

Fishnet stockings, side-tied ropes, the name on her leg and the word “correct,” all were on display.

You could even faintly see the smiling kitty.

Seeing this, Zhou Yinying, Su Yan, and Chen Ranni all clicked their tongues in amazement.

Feeling shy and wronged under their gaze, Chen Muyu muttered, “I never wore this kind before!”

However, Wang Haoran wasn’t buying it.

“You changed your clothes yourself; what’s it got to do with me? How is it for me!”

“It’s just… only you can see… see here!”

“But I never told you, how did you know I like this style?”

“Eh? But…”

Being questioned by Wang Haoran, Chen Muyu was at a loss for words.

Isn’t it said that men like this kind of… impressive style… Does Wang Haoran prefer the plain kind?

“Do you like the previous style? Then… I’ll change back tomorrow…”

“Actually… I prefer you not wearing any…”

“…!”

Hearing this, Chen Muyu’s head hung low in shyness, and she was shocked immediately.

She quickly refused.

“That’s not possible!”

“Pearl T?” (tln : google it, it’s erotic panties)

“No way!”

“Then… Band-Aid?”

“Also no!”

Wang Haoran became annoyed, “Hey, you said you’d choose according to my preferences, but when I suggest something, you say no!”

“Are you playing with me?!”

“Boo… but…”

In the end, Chen Muyu could only look at Wang Haoran weakly and say—

“Then you have to let me choose a bigger Band-Aid…”

“Of course!”

Wang Haoran smiled.

“It seems I misunderstood; you really don’t like Long Ao!”

“Alright, the auction is starting, let’s stop arguing and enjoy the show together!”

As Wang Haoran finished speaking, Zhou Yinying beside him immediately waved to Chen Muyu.

“Come, this seat is for you!”

“Mm! Th-thank you!”

Blushing all over, Chen Muyu didn’t have time to think and, without even lowering her skirt, walked over in a daze.

She gratefully said to Zhou Yinying.

“You’re really nice!”

***

The auction proceeded smoothly and was soon nearing its end.

But Xu Liang felt quite uncomfortable.

During the auction, a calligraphy “authentic work” by the ancient master Tang Yin appeared.

This Tang Yin was not the famous Tang Bohu.

Maybe the author of “Urban Crooked-Mouth Dragon King” was too lazy to think of different names, so he split “Tang Bohu” and “Tang Yin” into two characters. One was responsible for painting, the other for calligraphy.

According to the plot, the female antagonist Chen Muyu, knowing that Long Ao wanted this calligraphy to please the female lead Su Yan’s grandfather, competed fiercely with Long Ao for it and succeeded.

After winning, she loudly mocked Long Ao for not having money.

However, all she got was Long Ao’s crooked smile—

“Of course, I can’t compete with Miss Chen’s wealth!”

“Spending eight million on a fake!”

Shock spread through the crowd.

Under everyone’s eyes, Long Ao began to explain logically and factually.

Thus.

Long Ao successfully tricked Chen Muyu.

Crooked-Mouth Dragon King’s face-slapping success, female antagonist became the fool!

Knowing the plot, Xu Liang naturally wanted to replace his lady and counter-trick Long Ao.

So, already in a “needle-point-to-maggot-like” confrontation with Long Ao, Xu Liang clashed with him again at the auction.

In the plot, the last three bids were: Chen Muyu seven million, Long Ao seven point seven million, Chen Muyu eight million.

Everything was going smoothly; after Xu Liang shouted seven million, he prepared to hear Long Ao bid seven point seven million.

Xu Liang knew Long Ao would pretend to hesitate for a moment before gritting his teeth and bidding, just to make people think he really wanted the calligraphy but was running out of money.

This trick successfully fooled Chen Muyu.

But now you face me, who knows the plot—Xu Liang prepared to stop bidding after Long Ao spoke.

Once Long Ao won, he would mock him with the original words—

“Mr. Long is truly wealthy!”

“Spending seven point seven million on a fake!”

With the system’s “Antique Appraisal” reward, Xu Liang could also accurately explain why the calligraphy was fake!

Long Ritian’s face, he was determined to slap!

The plan was perfect, but—

“First, second, third time, congratulations to the Chen family for winning Tang Yin’s authentic calligraphy!”

The rapid sequence of the auctioneer’s words left Xu Liang dumbfounded.

Damn! Did this auctioneer drink emergency syrup from the Kingdom of Urgency!

So fast!

Long Ritian hasn’t even finished pretending to hesitate!

Thus, Xu Liang spent seven million of the Chen family’s money on a fake.

Naturally, he got face-slapped by Long Ao, just like the original Chen Muyu.

Feeling downcast, not knowing how to explain to his lady.

However.

After scolding him, Chen Muyu suddenly sent a message.

“Lackey, if you can piss off Long Ao later, I won’t hold it against you.”

“If not… hmph hmph! You’ll be in trouble!”

Seeing this message, Xu Liang’s spirits immediately lifted.

With Chen Muyu’s financial support, he was confident he could outbid Long Ao and win that crucial bracelet!

By then, seeing such an opportunity slip through his fingers, Long Ao would surely be pissed!

And he could also impress his lady!

At this moment, Xu Liang, full of confidence, had no idea what kind of pain that bracelet would bring him.
