Chapter 550: 550, Boss Huo helps the baby win money
Grandma Huo and her daughter-in-law exchanged glances, a subtle winking and nodding, like they were exchanging coded signals. They laughed, looking like a hilarious pair of sly foxes.
Huo Jingshen darkened his handsome face before suddenly reaching out a hand, seizing Su Wanwan’s arm, “Move.”
“What’s wrong?” Su Wanwan felt like a small kitten being held up in his surprise grip.
The others looked on, surprised.
Huo Jingshen then took her vacated seat, spreading his long, attractive fingers on the table. Then he narrowed his dark eyes and said something unbelievable, “I will play a few rounds for my precious.”
Upon hearing those words, Huo Zhexi was the first to object, “Big brother, do you need to go this far?”
Huo Jingshen gave Huo Zhexi a cold sidelong glance, causing him to immediately back down.
Damn, he’s scolding people again!
“Who else has objections?” Huo Jingshen lifted his smooth, perfect jaw slightly.
In his words, there was the commanding presence of one who was accustomed to being at the top.
Grandma Huo and Mingzhu immediately shook their heads vigorously, “We have no objections.”
“In that case,” Huo Jingshen gave a small smile, “Shuffle the cards.”
So, Su Wanwan sat behind, watching her husband play cards as though he was a legendary god of gamblers, gracefully picking up cards and dealing, his handsome face glowing with an invincible aura.
In a while, he was getting sevens of all suits, clean sequences, and pairs of dragons.
“Each person pays 1000.”
“Each person pays 1200.”
“Each person pays 800.”
“…”
After a few rounds, he had earned back the 3000 that Su Wanwan had lost, along with the profit.
Su Wanwan couldn’t contain her joy, while Huo Zhexi’s fair face darkened more and more, looking like the bottom of a pan.
Finally, after Huo Jingshen won another round, Huo Zhexi pushed his cards aside and spoke up in frustration, “Big brother, do you have no shame? Taking money from me and my mother.”
“Is that so?” Huo Jingshen raised his eyebrows slightly, “Then let’s stop playing.”
Huo Zhexi was surprised.
Was big brother being so reasonable today?
The next second…
“Including the last round just now, each person pays 1500. My wife lost 3000 initially, and now I have earned 9000 back, three times the amount. Transfer the amount.”
“…” Huo Zhexi almost vomited blood!
Damn.
Is he going to let people enjoy their New Year’s holiday at all?
Su Wanwan kept receiving payments on her phone, still somewhat unsatisfied, “Husband, keep playing, win more money for your wife!”
This feeling of sitting idly and receiving money was unbelievably good!
Huo Jingshen looked at the young girl.
Seeing her unambitious look, he was amused. She had won just a few thousand and was already grinning like a fool.
He promptly got up, pulled her up and walked upstairs.
Grandma Huo, who had lost money, shouted, “Hey, Ashen, where are you going? It’s not yet time for dinner, stay and play a few more rounds with me.”
Huo Jingshen didn’t look back, “Call Nuanyang.”
Hearing this, Nuanyang, who had just come down from upstairs, scratched his nose and turned around to climb back up.
The voice of Grandma Huo was still echoing loudly downstairs, “Hurry up, Juncheng, call your son to come down and play Mahjong with me!”
Huo Zhexi was furious. Wasn’t it enough that his elder brother had just skimmed off their wealth? Now he wanted to call his second brother over to continue shearing sheep?
He was definitely focused on exploiting their family, right?
What an unscrupulous businessman!
A blatantly unscrupulous businessman!

Upon reaching the bedroom upstairs, Huo Jingshen closed the door behind him. Su Wanwan was still excitedly checking the balance in her mobile wallet, “Wow, I made 9000. I’ve gotten so rich!”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
“Husband, how are you so amazing? How come you, a foreigner, can play Mahjong so well?”
Huo Jingshen furrowed his eyebrows, “Who are you calling a foreigner?”
“Didn’t you grew up in the UK?”
“Your husband is Chinese.” Huo Jingshen pinched her cheeks, “You can’t forget the national essence.”
Su Wanwan giggled, “Your national essence is so powerful, can you teach me your national essence?”
Huo Jingshen also followed with a chuckle, “Husband is even better in other aspects, want me to teach you… how to pose?”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Damn!
This seasoned pro!
He is boundless when he starts making dirty jokes.
Can’t we have a nice chat?
“Do you know why Grandma is always the one to win?” Huo Jingshen suddenly asked.
“Why?”
Huo Jingshen gave a laugh and revealed the answer, “Silly girl, didn’t you see how Aunt Mingzhu was always feeding her the right cards?”
Su Wanwan: “…”
“Your Aunt is very savvy. It’s the New Year, and they’re just aiming to keep Grandma happy. Only a pauper like you has been playing along with them this whole time.”
Pauper?
Su Wanwan felt unhappy.
No wonder Granny was always the one to win the game. Mingzhu was sitting upstream of her, and she also had the foolish Huo Zhexi playing along.
“It’s okay, just collect more red packets tonight,” Huo Jingshen comforted his wife.
Mentioning this, Su Wanwan got even more upset, “If I collect red packets, you will confiscate them!”
Recalling how last semester, she had collected a lot of red packets, only for Huo Jingshen to confiscate them all, she was upset.
Who would’ve known that Huo Jingshen said, “Your husband won’t confiscate them this time.”
“Really?”
Is such good luck possible?
Has the crafty businessman changed his ways?
Su Wanwan was about to laugh.
“Yes, this time remember to hand it over voluntarily.”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Damn!
This Huo Shiren who always exploits others!
“I’m not playing with you! I’m going downstairs!” Su Wanwan abruptly turned around, only to be held back by him, and in the same movement, he locked the bedroom door.
