Ran Xiucheng saw his elder brother, whom he had admired since childhood, showing such indifference when he lost his arm. A flicker of resentment flashed across his eyes. "I want Feng Yuqin to lose an arm too."
Everyone was speechless upon hearing this.
It was the Ran family themselves who had proposed the bet, and they even wanted the great doctor Feng.
Now that they had lost, they were reneging on the deal.
Originally, these onlookers had held the hidden - world families in high regard.
But now, seeing their true colors, looks of contempt appeared on their faces one by one.
Hearing that Feng Yuqin's arm could be cut off, Ran Ziling said excitedly, "Brother, I think what Second Brother said is right. We can't just let it go like this. Feng Yuqin cut off Second Brother's arm, so we should cut off one of hers too."
"You guys are nothing. How dare you touch my mother?" Little Ling'er couldn't bear it any longer seeing these annoying people.
Even Chu Xiaomian glared at them angrily.
Feng Yuqin didn't want to entangle with these people any longer. Her gaze fell lightly on Cai Heng. "Give me their storage rings."
Since it was a bet, Feng Yuqin certainly wouldn't let them keep the rings.
So from the very beginning, the storage ring in Ran Xiuzhe's hand had already been in Cai Heng's possession.
Accepting the loss gracefully, Cai Heng immediately handed the storage ring to Feng Yuqin upon hearing her words.
Seeing this, Ran Ziling subconsciously wanted to step forward and snatch it. But a powerful pressure fell on her, and she couldn't move an inch.
The sense of danger made a pang of panic rise in her heart.
It was at this moment that Ran Ziling truly understood why her elder brother had given up earlier.
Because the feeling of being on the verge of death was too vivid...
It seemed that if she dared to move even a little more, the head on her neck would be separated from her body.
Jiu Tianhua didn't bother to talk nonsense with them. He directly wrapped the people of the Ran family with a spiritual force and threw them all out.
"Ah..." The members of the Ran family fell to the ground one by one, emitting shrill cries.
"Ran Ziling, you're crushing me. Get up quickly!" Ran Xiuzhe's angry voice rang out.
It was obvious that this was a deliberate prank by Jiu Tianhua.
"You're really..." Zong Zichen gave the man in front of him a speechless look.
He was clearly taking revenge for Feng Yuqin.
This was really strange...
Feng Yuqin raised her eyebrows slightly at this scene.
Whoever could do this must have great strength.
The onlookers in the stone - gambling workshop once again felt the power of those behind the workshop.
Previously, there were also people who made a scene here because they lost too much in stone - gambling.
Without exception, they were all thrown out by the people of the workshop.
This time, they felt it even more deeply.
Sure enough, one shouldn't make a scene in this stone - gambling workshop.
"Dr. Feng, could I have a word with you in private?" Cai Heng asked, looking at Feng Yuqin.
Feng Yuqin nodded, then looked at Little Ling'er and Chu Xiaomian. "You guys stay here obediently and wait for me."
Cai Heng quickly led Feng Yuqin to an inner room. "Dr. Feng, what happened to you in the stone - gambling workshop today must have attracted the attention of many people. The Ran family is not the only hidden - world family that has come out this time. There are other families too."
Feng Yuqin knew there were other families, but she didn't know how many people there were. So she looked at Cai Heng and asked, "Do you know the specific strength and the number of people from the other families?"
Cai Heng shook his head. "I'm not sure about the exact number of people, nor do I know what they will do. But I know the Ran family will surely not let you go. So it may be quite dangerous for you when you go out later. If you don't mind, you can stay in our stone - gambling workshop first until our people arrive."
"Thank you for your kindness, but since they want to cause trouble for me, it won't be solved by me hiding." Feng Yuqin said calmly. "Moreover, if they come looking for me, it will also implicate your stone - gambling workshop."
Hiding wasn't her style.
When she was gambling on stones with the Ran family, she had already anticipated the possible consequences.
She had spiritual pets with her, so it wouldn't be a big problem.
It was just that she had to figure out a way to quietly get Little Ling'er and Chu Xiaomian into the space.
Other than that, there were no major issues.
Estimating the time, Mo Xuanye should be coming back soon.
"This is also the intention of our workshop owner." Cai Heng didn't expect to receive such news just now.
Feng Yuqin was stunned. "Your workshop owner?"
"Yes. Our workshop owner said that some people outside have been inquiring about your news and plan to lie in wait for you." A flicker of worry also flashed across Cai Heng's eyes.
After having a short contact with Feng Yuqin, he thought she was really a nice person.
So Cai Heng didn't want anything to happen to Feng Yuqin.
Feng Yuqin didn't expect that this matter was actually related to the owner of the Jiuchong Tower behind the stone - gambling workshop.
They didn't know each other. Why would he help her?
However, Feng Yuqin wouldn't dwell on things she couldn't figure out.
So she said to Cai Heng, "Please prepare two or three rooms for me. I plan to confuse them."
Cai Heng didn't know what Feng Yuqin was planning to do, but he still asked, "I wonder if Dr. Feng needs any help?"
Feng Yuqin shook her head. "Just prepare a few rooms. Don't let anyone enter those rooms within three hours. After three hours, I should have left the stone - gambling workshop. So you can do whatever you want then."
"I'll go and arrange it right away." Cai Heng was very efficient.
The stone - gambling workshop originally had some empty rooms.
After everything was ready, Feng Yuqin took Little Ling'er and Chu Xiaomian into the room.
Then she gave Cai Heng a piece of the green crystal she had previously unearthed.
"Dr. Feng, I can't accept this. I really can't." Cai Heng didn't expect Feng Yuqin to be so generous as to offer a green crystal.
"Since I'm giving it to you, just take it." Feng Yuqin didn't want to owe anyone favors.
Cai Heng had been so enthusiastic in helping her today, and the stone - gambling workshop had also left a good impression on her.
So she was willing to use a green crystal to make friends with the stone - gambling workshop.
To be precise, it was the attitude of the owner of the Jiuchong Tower towards her that made her think she could use a green crystal to test the waters.
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Cai Heng had no choice but to accept it.
After Cai Heng left, Little Ling'er's big round eyes rolled as she asked, "Mom, are we in danger?"
Feng Yuqin raised her eyebrows and looked at her daughter. "Why do you ask?"
"We came to the stone - gambling workshop, and all the problems have been solved. All that's left is to leave and go somewhere else. But from what you told Uncle Cai just now, we can't leave for the time being." Little Ling'er was very smart and could figure out some things from their conversation.
Feng Yuqin smiled. "We can leave. Let's leave now."
