Chapter 1796: Chapter 1795: Who Can Take My Money
Aunt Qiao called Bai Xiaoxiao, simply worried that she was with Luo Haofeng.
She had already heard that Luo Haofeng hadn’t left, only his parents had left G City.
Now hearing Wen Ran say that Mo Xiuchen and the others had just enough for a game of mahjong, it meant Luo Haofeng wasn’t there.
With Luo Haofeng not there, she was relieved.
She immediately laughed, “Today is New Year’s Eve, you all can play however you want.”
Then, Aunt Qiao tiredly yawned, “I’ve grown old, can’t keep up with you youngsters. I’m going to sleep.”
“Aunt Qiao, you’re not old at all. People would think you and Xiaoxiao are sisters on the street.”
“Ranran, if you keep saying that, I might actually believe it.”
Aunt Qiao laughed on the other end of the phone; no woman dislikes being praised for being beautiful and young.
Wen Ran also laughed, “Aunt Qiao, I’m telling the truth.”
“Alright, alright. You all go play now, I’m going to sleep.”
“Good night, Aunt Qiao.”
After hanging up, Wen Ran handed the phone to Bai Xiaoxiao, happily saying, “Xiaoxiao, it’s settled. You can play freely tonight, Aunt Qiao won’t come to drag you back.”
Bai Xiaoxiao sighed, saying, “Seems like only with you does my mom feel at ease.”
She did not take the phone Wen Ran handed over but hugged her instead, teasing, “Ranran, why don’t the two of us spend it together!”
Wen Ran replied with a grin, “Sure, join me, but I’m afraid Luo Haofeng would cry.”
Bai Xiaoxiao playfully chuckled, “Don’t know who’ll be crying yet.”
She obviously meant Mo Xiuchen.
With Aunt Qiao’s permission, Bai Xiaoxiao stayed with Wen Ran and the others the whole night.
A little past three in the morning, the few women were sent off to sleep by the men.
Seeing Luo Haofeng had lost the worst, Bai Xiaoxiao suggested, “Let me play a bit for you, I can’t sleep anyway.”
Luo Haofeng agreed with a smile and gave his seat to Bai Xiaoxiao without hesitation. Upon seeing this, Gu Kai looked at Qin Mu and Wen Jin, “Ah Mu, Ah Jin, Ah Feng brought Xiaoxiao in, what to do?”
“Simple, let Yiyi and An Lin come too, they are still wide awake anyway.”
Qin Mu said as if it was obvious.
They all had someone to switch in for them, but Wen Jin didn’t.
Gu Kai looked up at Wen Ran sitting next to Mo Xiuchen, “Since that’s the case, Ranran, can you play for Ah Jin?”
“Me?”
Wen Ran was enjoying Mo Xiuchen’s service, comfortably eating, and had ignored their conversation.
Upon hearing Gu Kai’s words, she was somewhat surprised.
“Yeah, we’ve all swapped players, Ah Jin doesn’t have a girlfriend, so you have to fill in for a while as his sister.”
Mo Xiuchen slightly frowned, holding Wen Ran’s warm small hand in his large palm indifferently, “If he doesn’t have a girlfriend, he can find one himself, Ranran, don’t go replace him.”
Wen Ran chuckled, “Xiuchen, after the New Year, I’ll find my brother a girlfriend.”
“He’s not a kid, he can find a girlfriend himself, don’t help him.” After Mo Xiuchen finished, he glanced at Wen Jin.
Wen Jin happened to be looking their way, their gazes met, and he raised a handsome eyebrow, “Ranran can play for you only if all your winnings tonight go to her.”
As soon as Mo Xiuchen spoke, the others couldn’t help but twitch their mouths.
Turns out it was all about money!
This scheming man Mo Xiuchen, Wen Jin hasn’t even married yet, and he’s already trying to mess with him.
Wen Jin chuckled lightly, “Ranran, come play, all this money is yours.”
Not to mention giving her all the money on the table, even if he gave all his assets to Wen Ran, he wouldn’t blink or hesitate for a second.
Wen Ran nodded with a smile and sat in the seat Wen Jin vacated, “Brother, what if I lose?”
“Whatever you lose is on me.” Wen Jin made a prompt statement.
Mo Xiuchen moved next to Wen Ran and continued to offer her snacks.
It had to be said, Luo Haofeng made a wise choice by letting Bai Xiaoxiao play for him.
By dawn, Bai Xiaoxiao had won back half of his money.
But Bai Yiyi, An Lin, and Wen Ran all lost almost all their money, leaving a lot on the table.
At the end, Wen Ran said to Wen Jin, “Brother, I didn’t lose everything, the rest is yours.”
Wen Jin shook his head with a smile, “Didn’t I say earlier? All this money is yours, just think of it as New Year’s money.”
“Brother, this is your winnings, how can I take your money?”
“Why not, I’m your brother, if you can’t take my money, who can?”
Wen Ran chuckled softly, “Save it to marry my sister-in-law.”
“Your brother here has enough to marry a wife.”
Gu Kai chimed in with a laugh, “Ranran, just take it, Ah Jin has plenty and doesn’t care about this, think of it as venue fee.”
“Can’t expect Ah Jin to pay the venue fee alone, you and Ah Mu should chip in too.”
Once Mo Xiuchen spoke, An Lin and Bai Yiyi immediately grabbed some money from the table and handed it to Wen Ran, giggling, “Ranran, this is venue fee, take it.”
“Mama mama.” Came Ziyi’s voice from the living room.
A moment later, Ziyi rushed into the room, eyes sparkling at the pile of money on the table, “Mama, did you win this money? There’s so much!”
Wen Ran’s eyes sparkled, she grinned at Ziyi, “Ziyi, do you want this money?”
Ziyi looked expectantly, “Mama, can I have this money?”
“Today is the first day of the New Year, you give Mama New Year’s greetings, and Mama will give you this money as New Year’s money.”
Upon hearing this, Ziyi’s eyes darted, “Mama, I get New Year’s money from you, if I greet Uncle and Aunt, do I get New Year’s money from them too?”
Indeed, a promising child!
Wen Ran nodded, “Of course, you greet them, they’ll give you New Year’s money.”
Hearing this, Ziyi happily ran out of the room, heading to the living room to offer New Year’s greetings to Wen Jin, Gu Kai, Luo Haofeng, and Qin Mu.
Such easy money, he certainly wouldn’t miss the opportunity.
Wen Ran listened to Ziyi’s soft, kiddy voice offering blessings and couldn’t help but laugh.
Soon the boy came back with a handful of money, “Mama, this is the New Year’s money I just earned, please keep it for me.”
“Do you know how much this is?”
Wen Ran took the New Year’s money from Ziyi’s hands, placed it on the table, together with earlier money.
Ziyi shook his head, “Mama, I don’t know how much, but it’s surely a lot, enough for baby sister’s formula.”
“Did your sister wake up when you came downstairs?”
“When I came down, she wasn’t awake yet, Aunt An has already gone upstairs.”
Ziyi climbed onto a chair, eyes bright, looking at the pile of money, softly saying, “Mama, teach me to count money.”
