Chapter 123 If he offends me, I will retaliate with thunder.
"Luo Xue, you—" Qian Yuhan stared wide-eyed at the dazzling array of food on the table.
"Eat up, what are you daydreaming about?" Ouyang Luoxue picked up her knife and fork and ate the steak on the plate in front of her.
There were still plenty of delicious dishes on the table: chicken wing rice rolls, spicy whale meat, and charcoal-grilled Crimson Soul Pig...
Qian Yuhan couldn't be happy at all; her heart was bleeding!
"Luo Xue, can you finish all this food?" Qian Yuhan asked, tearfully cutting off a piece of charcoal-grilled Crimson Soul Pork and putting it in her mouth.
Ouyang Luoxue said with a smile, "Of course, I can eat a lot. Even my dad can't outeat me."
"Hehe—" Qian Yuhan laughed helplessly.
Qian Yuhan really spent a lot of money on this meal. She never expected that Qian Yuhan could order so much. She took out the black gold card that her father had left her and swiped the money in it to pay for it first.
"Wow, a Douluo Bank Black Gold Card, not bad." Ouyang Luoxue naturally saw the Black Gold Card that Qian Yuhan had taken out. As the young lady of the Ice God Sect, how could she not recognize this card? There are no more than ten people on the entire continent who possess it.
“It’s my dad’s, not mine,” Qian Yuhan explained.
Ouyang Luoxue smiled and shook her head, saying, "What's your dad's is yours too."
“That’s different. This money was earned by my father, not mine. I’m only borrowing it temporarily now.”
"It's still a temporary loan—do you have to be so clear about how you're going to separate things from your father?"
"Of course, I'm all grown up now. I want to earn my own money. When the time comes, you can think about how to use the money you earn to support your father in his old age. That's how you show your filial piety."
Hearing Qian Yuhan's words, Ouyang Luoxue was taken aback at first, then said, "Hmm, I agree. Then this meal is on me. You just watched me eat, and you didn't eat much either—"
"No, I said I'd pay you, how can I go back on my word? Besides, I've already thought of a way to make money—"
Ouyang Luoxue then remembered that Qian Yuhan had mentioned in a previous letter that he wanted to create a card game that was low-cost and affordable. She was sure it would become a hit.
"Oh? What's the solution? Can you tell me? Maybe I can help you." Although Ouyang Luoxue already knew about it, she pretended not to know anything and asked Qian Yuhan.
Qian Yuhan also told Ouyang Luoxue about her previous card game plan without any concealment.
Ouyang Luoxue laughed and said, "Silly girl, you trust me that much? You explained it in such detail—aren't you afraid of me..."
Before she could finish speaking, Qian Yuhan looked up into Ouyang Luoxue's eyes, making Ouyang Luoxue blush. She slowly asked, "Can you?"
Then he smiled and continued, "Luo Xue, I believe in you. To be honest, I'm planning to work with my brothers. I even talked to my pen pal about it, and she said she could check out the situation at Tian Dou for me. I wrote her a letter yesterday, and it just went into her inbox this morning. We'll discuss it in more detail after she reads it. It would be even better if you joined us; with you here, I have even more confidence, hehe—"
Ouyang Luoxue: Huh? He wrote a letter?! I have to hurry and get it back. Honestly, why didn't I check there this morning…
"Luo Xue? Luo Xue?" Qian Yuhan waved in front of Ouyang Luo Xue, who was in a daze.
"Oh. Sorry, I was just spacing out—"
"What do you think? Do you want to join?"
Ouyang Luoxue replied without hesitation, "Of course!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ouyang Luoxue seemed to have thought of something and said with a serious expression, "Yuhan, I have to remind you, if you want to run this kind of card game, you're going to steal business from the Wu family of Tiandou. You need to be careful with the Wu family."
Upon hearing Ouyang Luoxue's reminder, Qian Yuhan rested his chin on his hand and pondered, "The Wu family? Are they very powerful?"
Ouyang Luoxue nodded and said, "The Wu family is considered a mid-to-lower-tier family among the business families of the Tiandou Empire, but for a small card shop like yours that is just starting out, destroying you is as easy as crushing an ant."
"So ruthless? They probably wouldn't even look at my place."
"You're definitely not good at this when you're just starting out, but think about how you'll definitely face them in the future, so you need to plan ahead."
"Let's take it one step at a time and see what happens. Actually, besides cards, I have a lot of other fun things to do, let's start with cards—"
"Okay, think it over carefully first. You can contact me anytime, and I'll help you find a shop or something."
Qian Yuhan looked at Ouyang Luoxue across the table and said with a smile, "Thank you, Luoxue."
Ouyang Luoxue waved her hand and said, "No need to thank me, I'm your partner now."
After exchanging a few more words, the two went to the restaurant counter to pay the bill.
"Hello student, table 047 has spent a total of 1026 Gold Soul Coins."
Upon hearing the number, Ouyang Luoxue said somewhat awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I... I didn't know—"
Qian Yuhan laughed and joked, "What don't you know? You don't know you ate so much, do you? Hahaha—it's okay, as long as you're full, it's good to be a little fat pig."
"You're the pig—" Ouyang Luoxue stomped her foot and lightly patted Qian Yuhan, pretending to be very angry.
……
Among the three people eating not far away, one of them, a fat man, looked up and saw Qian Yuhan.
Zhao Shuo pointed in the direction of Qian Yuhan and said, "Boss, look over there, isn't that Qian Yuhan from the Spirit Hall Academy?"
Wu Yifan turned around: "Oh~ it's him. Hey, why does that girl look so familiar?"
A boy with a scarred face named Yu Yang said, "Boss, isn't that the campus beauty, Ouyang Luoxue?"
Wu Yifan said thoughtfully, "They've already gotten together? Sigh—I heard that Ouyang Luoxue has very high standards and has taken a liking to this guy?"
“Hey, bro, don’t you know? You know Ning Kaiwen from the third year, right? He’s Ouyang Luoxue’s number one simp, no, I mean number one suitor,” Yu Yang said.
“Ning Kaiwen? I know him, he's from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. In that case, hehehe, I have a good idea—”
……
Qian Yuhan sensed something was wrong, and looking in that direction, she saw Wu Yifan grinning maliciously at her.
"Do you know this guy?" Qian Yuhan asked, gesturing towards Wu Yifan's direction.
“I’ve heard from others that he’s from the Wu family, the third son of the current head of the Wu family,” Ouyang Luoxue replied calmly, glancing over there.
"This guy doesn't seem like a good person. That smile... ugh..." Qian Yuhan shuddered as she thought of Wu Yifan's sly grin earlier.
Ouyang Luoxue covered her mouth and chuckled, "You're afraid of that?"
"This is creepy, let's go!" With that, he stepped out of the restaurant.
"Hey, slow down! Just don't mess with him. That guy's supposedly incredibly arrogant and domineering. He's nowhere near as strong as you, but when it comes to causing trouble, he's disgusting. Last semester, a freshman messed with him and got so depressed that he transferred schools at the end of the semester. Be careful—"
"Yes, yes, I won't offend him unless he offends me; if he does, he'll retaliate with lightning speed—"
