Why is this guy so hard to deal with?

Bai Ran gritted her teeth and replied insincerely, “The cards are bad. You’ll lose this time.”

Since the couple did not intentionally lower their voice, everyone around them could hear their exchange. Whisperings were heard among the crowd.

No one was happier about this than Meng Fan. Since Quan Rui was dealt a lousy hand, he would win for sure, so it wouldn’t hurt to place a bigger bet.

When Jiang Hao heard Bai Ran and Quan Rui’s words, he wondered if those two were bluffing or being truthful. At the moment, though, he wasn’t in the mood to concentrate on the gambling match. He kept thinking about how Bai Ran had managed to hook up with Quan Rui.

Of all people, why did it have to be Quan Rui? None of the people here would dare offend him.

Otherwise, someone would surely have stepped up to defend his sister a long time ago. Jiang Bangyuan’s eyes were also locked on Bai Ran.

“I should have been the one sitting on Quan Rui’s lap. But look at what happened,” she thought to herself.

She was replaced by that wretched little nobody!

Furthermore, she became the butt of their joke tonight. Lord only knew how many people were laughing at her behind her back right now.

Bai Ran ignored the stares of the siblings of the Jiang Family and turned to pass the cards to Quan Rui. “Here, look for yourself if you don’t believe me.”

Jokes aside, Bai Ran still didn’t want Quan Rui to lose. Ultimately, she could get half the earnings if they won.

“Tonight might mean the difference of whether mother will be able to receive good medical treatment,” she thought.

This was what Bai Ran had in mind all along, but Quan Rui did not appreciate her good intentions.

He simply took the cards from her hands and put them back down on the table before looking at Bai Ran again and speaking to her in a doting voice that oozed with honey.

“You’ve already seen them. Say, how much do you want to bet? Five million? Ten million?” Quan Rui spoke light-heartedly as though he was joking.

Or rather, maybe that money was worthless in his eyes.

Bai Ran’s expression changed when she heard this, and she quickly stopped him, “Are you crazy?”

But it was too late. Quan Rui had already placed his bet.

“Fifty million,” he said. Then he pushed his chips forward.

While they were chit-chatting, Quan Rui had already thrown away fifty-three million dollars.

Everyone drew a breath of shock. Did they hear him right? They must have misheard!

Someone then carefully counted the number of chips Quan Rui had pushed out, and without recovering from the shock, that person nodded his head and confirmed that it was indeed fifty-three million dollars…

Quan Rui was indeed the crown prince of the Quan Family. He could be so generous when he took a shot at it!

Bai Ran was shocked, too. She already showed him the cards before. Why did he bet so much money without even looking at them? What if they lost? How could someone be so clueless?

Bai Ran turned around to remind Quan Rui, as she did not wish to see him lose too pathetically.

However…

The moment she turned her head around, from what she could see of Quan Rui’s profile, she noticed a determined look on his face.

Bai Ran then recalled the first time she had seen him on the lawn half an hour ago.

There he stood, tall and upright against the light source while looking down on her like that.

She recalled how he had taken her breath away. How could someone with such a strong aura exist on earth, she wondered.

At the time, she didn’t let the panic in her heart show because her reaction was based on a first impression that might have been an illusion.

But now…

He was right in front of her and was even holding her in his arms. Bai Ran could feel her face turning crimson.
