CHAPTER 59: Wanting to Collect Gambling Debts! [Third Update!]

Just as the words were spoken, a powerful figure rushed in with the wind; it was Hu Yan Ao Bo. Miss Hu Yan, blushing with a mix of shyness and anger, kicked Ji Mo hard in the rear, surprisingly lifting his small frame off the ground as she shouted, "Who’s your wife…"

Though she said that, her face turned red.

Ji Mo, wide-eyed, suddenly exclaimed as if he had seen a ghost, "Wow! So you can blush too..."

Miss Hu Yan was genuinely furious this time. She lunged forward, punching and kicking; Ji Mo, cradling his head, wailed loudly for mercy... Watching from the side, Rocky Luo, Dong Wushang, and Gu Duxing all gasped, their eyes wide in disbelief: how fierce!

The three of them watched as Ji Mo was hit around like a ball in the air, unable to contain their crooked smiles, a chill running down their spines.

Although it’s said that hitting signifies affection and scolding shows love, but this... was truly too brutal, right? Is this really Ji Mo's ideal partner in his dreams?

If it’s like this... then what about us...? Rocky Luo and Dong Wushang exchanged glances, both seeing fear in each other's eyes.

Gu Duxing smirked, thinking: Sister Xiao Miao definitely wouldn’t be like this Hu Yan girl... Sister Xiao Miao's gentleness, hmm... that is the best.

Before long, the two finished fighting. Ji Mo dusted himself off and walked over with a silly grin, even reaching out to link arms with Hu Yan Ao Bo.

Hu Yan Ao Bo dodged, shooting him a glare.

Ji Mo, undeterred, reached out again.

Hu Yan Ao Bo sidestepped once more, muttering, "Behave yourself."

Ji Mo smiled shamelessly and tried again... Ah! This time she didn't dodge!

And so, the two walked arm in arm.

Dong Wushang and Rocky Luo’s eyes went blank simultaneously...

In typical situations like this, the girl would lean into the boy's embrace like a little bird, with the boy looking proud and the girl radiating happiness.

But now... Hu Yan Ao Bo was tall and sturdy, while Ji Mo was petite and delicate; the one resembling a little bird was actually Ji Mo...

Hu Yan Ao Bo maintained a composed expression, while Ji Mo wore a blissful smile...

"Pfft..." Rocky Luo finally couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing; Dong Wushang coughed repeatedly.

"Please, ladies!" Hu Yan Ao Bo said grandly, but forgot Ji Mo was still linked to her arm; this bow inadvertently lifted Ji Mo off the ground, both feet leaving the floor...

"Miss Hu Yan, please." Dong Wushang and Rocky Luo quickly returned the gesture, still in a daze.

"Ao Bo..." Ji Mo let go, landing with a thud, proudly introducing, "This is my fourth brother, Dong Wushang; this is my fifth brother, Rocky Luo... um, over there is my second brother, Gu Duxing..."

"I know!" Hu Yan Ao Bo glanced at him, her voice a bit low.

"Knowing is one thing, but my introduction makes it so you know me," Ji Mo beamed: "That’s different."

"Who’s your boss?" Hu Yan Ao Bo asked curiously; who had such influence that made these people willingly stand behind him?

"There he comes," Ji Mo pointed.

Over there, Chu Yang was striding over with a radiant smile: "Miss Hu Yan... um, now it should be sister-in-law, we meet again haha..."

Hu Yan Ao Bo froze! She never imagined that Ji Mo's boss would actually be Chu King of Hell! But then she quickly came to her senses and smiled lightly, "So it's Brother Chu."

Everyone exchanged pleasantries; Gu Duxing also walked over.

Though Hu Yan Ao Bo had a sturdy build and looked rough, upon closer examination, she wasn't unappealing. It was simply that she was a larger version of a beauty. Especially in her mannerisms and speech, she exuded elegance and confidence, which gave her a unique charm.

Especially for someone as lazy as Ji Mo, having a wife like her seemed like a perfect match in everyone's eyes...

Watching Hu Yan Ao Bo being so poised, showing none of the usual shyness of a woman, her bold and spirited demeanor made the brothers think... this woman is not bad.

Her presence here meant that the Hu Yan family had tacitly approved of her and Ji Mo's engagement. Everyone understood this. Only Chu Yang pondered: perhaps... even if the Hu Yan family hadn't approved, she would still come, right? This woman is talented!
