Picking Up a Gorgeous CEO for a Wife

Chapter 1449: Chapter 1449: The Chosen One

“Diana wants to kill me, and I’m not supposed to defend myself?” Qin Yu said with a face full of grievance.

“You know that’s not what I’m asking,” Mo Yuqi exuded an extremely cold aura.

“Ah? Then what are you asking?” Qin Yu pretended to be oblivious.

“You! Why did you just… You… I could sue you for that!” Mo Yuqi suppressed her anger, her teeth clenched as she spoke in a low voice!

“Huh? You’re asking about that? What’s the big deal? You’re my woman. It’s only natural to give you a kiss, let alone to sleep with you,” Qin Yu grinned and smiled.

“Qin Yu! You!” Mo Yuqi was so furious her eyes were almost popping out. When had she ever encountered such an unbearable rogue?

Qin Yu just grinned, without the slightest realization that he had done something wrong. Mo Yuqi, angered, turned to walk away!

Qin Yu quickly grabbed Mo Yuqi’s arm, whispering, “Qiqi, if you expose my identity, wouldn’t a lot of people bet on Xiao Hong?

Wouldn’t that lower Xiao Hong’s odds?

How would we make any money then?”

After a brief moment of composure, Mo Yuqi normalized, and understanding dawned on her after hearing Qin Yu’s words.

Indeed, she almost ruined everything! If Horse Emperor’s identity was exposed, many people would likely follow suit, and by then, Xiao Hong’s odds would surely decrease significantly.

In that case, there would be no money to be made!

Even though she knew she was at fault, Mo Yuqi felt no compunction to admit it and instead said coldly, “Let go.”

Qin Yu laughed, noticing that though Mo Yuqi’s tone was still icy, she no longer had the impulse to walk away, indicating that she had taken his words to heart.

He Ruotong had been watching Qin Yu closely; she had to ensure absolute certainty! She needed to confirm that Qin Yu was indeed Horse Emperor! Seeing the scene that just transpired, He Ruotong’s eyes lit up!

This Mr. Qin must be Horse Emperor!

If it were an ordinary person, who would dare to touch Mo Yuqi randomly?

He Ruotong nodded politely to a few young nobles: “Tongtong needs to use the restroom; please excuse me.”

Having said that, He Ruotong walked briskly to the restroom. Once inside, she checked to make sure no one else was there, then took out her mobile phone.

It was an old model Nokia, and although it looked outdated, it had powerful functions, including an anti-eavesdropping feature—it was a satellite phone.

He Ruotong dialed a number, and the call connected quickly, a grave and authoritative voice answered, “Tongtong, what is it?”

“Grandfather, I want to raise some funds.”

“Didn’t I give you three hundred million when you left? What? Lost it all?” The voice on the phone sounded somewhat displeased.

“I haven’t lost it all, Grandfather. The three hundred million you gave me will turn into nine hundred million. I have an opportunity to make money here.”

“Oh? So you’ve rigged a horse in the racecourse? You’re playing against the house?”

“Yes, the champion should be fixed, but I’m not betting on the fixed champion horse.”

“Tongtong, I’m much clearer about the tricks of the racetrack than you are. Unless the house rigs the game, a horse with odds of 3 will not win. If you’re not in collusion with the house, I advise you to stop early. The three hundred million you’ve lost can be seen as a small lesson.”

He Ruotong smiled mysteriously, “Grandfather, I know all that you’ve said. Even though I’m not with the house, I’m following the Horse Emperor!”

“Horse Emperor? Qin?” The voice on the other end of the phone finally became unsettled!
