BXBX NOVEL Chapter 81 - Brother Luo
"Brother Huo, what are you doing here?" Ni Qing is walking closer to the hoodlum pack, and Zhang is getting worried about her safety. However, General Lin Yue and Ni Sheng seem not to worry for her safety.
Brother Huo realises the source of the voice when he can see his nemesis stands in front of him with the sword point at her by his subordinate. Brother Tao pale expression, and the rest of their pack start to withdraw their sword as soon as they realise the person stand in front of them.
"General Lin Yue, why you do not worry about the safety of consort Qing?" Eunuch Wang is asking with their acts to ignore the pack of bandits in the room.
"The problem here will be the bandits needed to be afraid of her…. you will see it soon," Ni Sheng explains and stuff some food into his mouth.
Everyone on brother Huo sides started to step back, including brother Huo and Brother Tao, to see her appearance. Brother Luo is confused to see his subordinate reaction toward her.
"What are you doing? Why all of you are stepping back with an unarmed woman?" Brother Luo is yelling at his subordinate who did not move from their position.
"Brother Huo… is that your brother? It means we have to do our ritual together. Brother Huo is my brother, so you will need to be my brother," Ni Qing is coming in between pale brother Huo with the angry Brother Luo. Apparently, Brother Huo did not tell the whole story about his sickness and his new nemesis. Brother Luo cannot move when her arms into his neck and hold it tightly.
"Sister Lu, how can your stomach so big overnight when last time we met, your tummy still fat?" Brother Tao is asking her, and she makes a gesture to cover his mouth.
"He is a big shot merchant, and I need to be like this to win his wealth. Do not make a fuss in front of him… Brother… My name is Lu Yi, and I am part of a loyal supporter of brother Huo. We even exchange our body fluid to bind our relationship" Ni Qing is immersing in her role as Lu Yi.
"Did you sleep with my brother Huo? And those are his kid… it means I will be an uncle soon," Apparently, Brother Luo EQ and IQ is worse than brother Huo who got his migraine back. Everyone is looking at the pregnant Ni Qing and salute her with the lady boss title straight away. They think that she is pregnant with Brother Huo baby. Ni Qing is confused to see them bowing and saluting them.
"Why are they saluting me as their lady boss? I am married to the hotshot boss in there, and he is not your boss?" Ni Qing is pointing her finger at Jin Yu in the middle of the room.
"Did you say that you are making my brother wearing a green hat?" Brother Luo is taking out his sword before brother Huo is stopping it.
"Stop it, little Luo… Let's leave her alone. You will not win with her, let alone get something from this cheapskate if you do not want to dig your own grave," Brother Huo is telling his little brother to stop and retreat. However, Brother Luo is getting greedy to see the fat whale in front of him.
"Why? Why should we retreat?" Brother Luo is asking his brother.
"Brother Luo… so you want gambled with me? If you win, I let you get the two wooden box in the room, and if you lose, then you have to do something for me, and brother Huo and brother Tao can not interfere with it," Ni Qing eyes glittered with excitement. Brother Huo and Brother Tao know the end of these bets, and they really pity their little brother.
"all my brother, please do not interfere when I am playing with this beautiful woman. If I win, I will get all your money, and as a bonus, I will let you live. But I will let you live still because I will win," Brother Luo did not realise the cunning bet from Ni Qing.
"Let sits down…." Ni Qing is turning her body and lead the way into the empty table and sit on it. Jin Yu is following and standing behind her. it is his duty to protect his wife while Zhang and Eunuch Wang and Eunuch Li are surrounding him. Brother Luo is sitting down at the table.
"I let you choose the game as you are a pregnant woman…."
"Are you sure?" Ni Qing is asking him again. Brother Huo and Brother Tao are retreating from the inn after seeing the same way they got trapped. They left with their man and left Brother Luo men behind to help and support their boss. They come closer to Brother Luo.
"Definitely…"
"Xiao Nie… Get me an empty bowl to drink something…." Ni Qing instructs her loyal maid, who is straight away getting back the empty porcelain bowl.
"You are pregnant, and I am not competing with you for alcohol…. We can drink something else," Brother Luo is diminishing the idea of drinking alcohol due to her condition.
"You are so good…. You care about my pregnancy…."
"What are we competing for? I know and well aware that I am a bastard and bad guy, but I still need to know my limit. Come let's start, and I can catch up with my brother Huo and Tao," Brother Luo is rushing her.
"Tell me one no two things, and I will give you reward some silver tael… Butler Wang, can I have one silver ingot and put it in the middle of the table," Ni Qing is instructing Eunuch Wang, who is seeking approval from the emperor. Jin Yu is nodding to approve her request before Eunuch Wang takes out the silver ingot from his pouch and put it on the table.
"ask me…" Brother Luo's eye on the money.
"Why are you barricade people to the southern region? And what is your relationship with Brother Huo? I mean, how you meet him?" Ni Qing is shooting him in the foot with the question, which makes Brother Luo quiet straight away.
"Speak, or You do not get the money…." Ni Qing is taking the silver ingot into her purse before brother Luo hand stop her.
"I got a business deal with the governor of the southern Region for stopping people from entering his region. That is the only thing I can tell you. Meanwhile, Brother Huo is my lifesaver, so I am a dead man if he did not save me and raise me until now," Brother Luo is taking the silver ingot after he finishes the storytelling.
"Butler Li… get the latrine bucket and scoop the dunk inside with the pee water. Whoever dares to finish it will be the winner," Ni Qing is announcing the bet.
"Are you serious?" Brother Luo is surprised to hear that from her.
"Yes…. Even Brother Huo is exchanging pee to drink with me when we exchange our vow. Come on, the bucket is here," Ni Qing is pushing the limit of someone. One of his subordinates is whispering to his ear. They want to resign as his subordinate if he dares to drink the latrine water.
"I am admitting defeat. You are crazy…. No one will drink from the latrine water. Oh My God… the smell of it. I want to vomit," Brother Luo is complaining about the smell and does not have the gut to swoop it to his mouth. He picks the wrong opponent this time.
"Are you sure….?"
"Yes…. You can go and continue your journey… No wonder Brother Huo is leaving you alone…" Brother Luo is standing up and almost going before Ni Qing is taking out her personal pouch and throw it to Brother Luo.
"Please give the money to Brother Huo…. I will always respect and treat her as my brother," Ni Qing is bowing to Brother Luo. He accepts the pouch full of silver ingot and retreat from the Inn. Jin Yu cannot hold it anymore and carry her on his shoulder with her head facing down.
"Show me the room," Jin Yu is striving to the second floor with her on his shoulder.
"I am sorry… but what is this for?" Ni Qing is asking her husband for an explanation about his possessiveness. Jin Yu is slapping her bottoms to make her quiet. Eunuch Wang is escorting the emperor to the room before Jin Yu is entering the room.
Inside the room, Jin Yu is throwing her body to the bed and kiss her so passionately. He cannot contain his anger toward her due to her reckless behaviour. This is the first time he saw her recklessness in front of a hoodlum without thinking about her own safety. Jin Yu was in the nerve to kill them.
