BXBX NOVEL Chapter 124 - Bet
When Latif did not say anything, Roger mockingly chuckled, "So you also think I have no chance with her?"
"Boss she is a married woman now. She is someone\'s wife now so it\'s better and wise to leave her alone. It\'s a sin to eye on someone\'s wife\'s." Latif had always supported Roger in everything but he also never restrained himself from correcting Roger if he was choosing the wrong path.
"What Yichan did back then, wasn\'t that a sin too?" Roger asked.
When Latif didn\'t say anything, Roger added, "Then why is he living such a happy and peaceful life? Why does he always get what he wants? Why is everything so easy for him? Do you think that is fair?"
Looking at the mansion, Roger continued, "They say everyone has to pay for their sins and Karma would never let them off but what about him? Will he never pay for his sins? So will he always going to live his life partying with his friends?"
Latif sighed and helplessly shook his head. He didn\'t know what he was supposed to say. He didn\'t want Roger to be so vengeful. He wanted him to leave the past behind and concentrate in making his future peaceful and brighter.
"I don\'t know about karma Latif but I\'ll surely make sure that Yichan pays for his sins with interest. I\'ll make him suffer ten times she did. I\'ll make sure he regrets taking such an unfair decision in the past."
Latif knew what and about whom Roger was about. He also knew how Roger must be feeling but there was nothing he could do. How could he make Roger understand that clinging onto his dark past would never make his present better or his future brighter?
"Did you send my gift?" Roger asked.
Latif nodded his head and answered, "Yes boss."
"Alright, lets leave."
"Boss, is it okay to send that gift? I don\'t think so Ms Yang will like it."
Roger chuckled and asked, "Who said we are sending a gift to Ms Yang?"
Latif frowned and asked, "Then-"
Looking at the mansion, Roger chuckled, "We are sending a gift to Mrs Mo."
Pausing for a while, Roger added, "That gift is for Mr and Mrs Mo. Hmm you can say that it is a gift to congratulate my ex-friend and his wife. I am Yichan\'s old friend so how can I not congratulate them? So that gift is for old times sake and I am sure that my old friend will like it."

Inside the mansion
"Ning, let me introduce to you the two youngest boys amongst us, Jason and Linhou. Jason deals with computer and technical stuff and Linhou deals with guns."
Ning frowned and asked, "Guns?"
"Guns? Who said guns? I think Yichan means gunsters." Guiren said.
Yichan vigorously nodded his head and said, "Ah yes, I mean exactly what Guiren said."
"Lady boss, it\'s lovely meeting me. I am the most handsome one so it will be easy for you to remember my name." Linhou said.
Jason scoffed and murmured, "Over smart."
Looking at the two young men, Ning chuckled, "Hmm, don\'t worry, I am good with names."
"Alright now, why don\'t we go and have dinner? I am starving." Rubbing his stomach, Yichan sighed, he couldn\'t wait to taste his favorite steak and the other delicious dishes that his wife had prepared.
….
Dinner table.
"Oh God, this is amazing." Taking another big bite of the steak, Linhou groaned in pleasure. Apart from guns if anything attracted him, it was good food.
"Seriously Ning, the food is outstanding." Guiren added.
"You have to share the recipe." Suyan added.
Ning smiled and nodded her head. "Ya sure, I\'ll pen it down and then send it to you."
Shoving his favorite piece of meat into his mouth, Yichan breathed a sigh of relief, "A beautiful wife who cooks such delicious food, could life be any better?"
"The food is undoubtedly awesome but I am actually more excited for the dessert." Yufan said.
"Hmm what was Yichan making? Strawberry pudding right?" Guiren asked.
Muchan widened his eyes in shock and asked, "Wait what? Yichan made the dessert?"
When Yufan nodded his head, Muchan added, "And there is nothing else for dessert?"
"Nope, we gotta eat whatever Yichan has made, no matter how horrible and non edible it is." Guiren added.
"Hey, don\'t shame my husband that way. What if his dessert is superb? What will you do then?" Ning asked.
"Superb? Huh that is impossible. I\'ll cut off my nose if that happens." Yufan was very confident about Yichan\'s dessert turning out to be a big disaster because he had personally witnessed his bad cooking skills.
"Me too." Guiren added.
"I\'ll second them." Muchan added.
"I don\'t want your nose but how about we bet?" Ning asked.
"What kind of bet?" Guiren asked.
"If Yichan\'s dessert turns out to be bad like you people are claiming, I\'ll give you three fifty thousand dollar each but if it turns out to be good, you three will give me eighty thousand dollar each. So do you three agree?" Ning asked.
"Honey, you should back out because Ning never bets money until she is very sure that she will win." Meili whispered. Apart from the fact that they were childhood best friends, Meili had been working alongside Ning for five years now and she knew everything about her. That look on Ning\'s face was similar to the look she has when everything happens according to her will during a business meeting or bidding.
"Ahh I got this honey, I\'ll buy something cool with the money I\'ll win from this bet." After appeasing his wife, Guiren turned towards Ning and said, "Deal."
"Deal."
"Deal."
When the three over confident men accepted the bet, Ning smirked and Yichan couldn\'t help but stare at his beautiful, intelligent and smart wife like a lovestruck fool.
Turning towards her husband, Ning smiled. "Honey, go and get your pudding."
Yichan vigorously nodded his head and rushed towards the kitchen.
