Chapter 345

345- Wishing For Who to Win? (希望谁赢?)

Once the wager was finalized, the people from the Cui Family stared at the ginseng in Jing Yun Zhao’s hands as if it already belonged to them, glaring at her almost as if the ginseng in her hands was stolen from their house.

“Since the ginseng you’re holding is part of the wager, shouldn’t you let someone more wise and experienced hold it to prevent any accidents?” Cui Jun’s father said.

Cui Jun’s father was around 40 years old and looked very dignified.

Jing Yun Zhao found his words to be very funny.

His so-called, ‘to prevent accidents’ was simply because he was afraid that I would renege on my bet after I lost.

Jing Yun Zhao gave a sweeping glance towards all the onlookers, before walking towards Ji Shan Shan and Tong Yan and pushed the brocade box containing the ginseng into Tong Yan’s hands and said, “I’ll leave this ginseng in your care for the time being, and if I were to lose, then give it to them. However, remember, give it to Cousin Cui from the Cui Family, not to the Cui Family! On the other hand, if I were to win, the ginseng would naturally be returned to me, and after everything’s been settled, I’ll give each of you a present as compensation for taking care of the ginseng, what do you think?”

Cousin Cui from the Cui Family had a surname of Sun, and her name was Sun Yan. (C: Why did we have to wait for so long just to get her name ;.; | Kyo: ikr)

When Sun Yan saw the ginseng, a look of greed flashed past her face as she really wanted it, but she didn’t want to give it to the Cui Family. Naturally, Jing Yun Zhao understood her intentions.

Jing Yun Zhao knew that If Sun Yan were to just submissively hand over such an expensive item, she would regret it her whole life.

Moreover, since the bet was between her and Sun Yan, obviously she didn’t have the right to give the wagered item, in case Sun Yan wanted to accuse her even when she had already given it out. However, if Sun Yan really had the capabilities to beat her fair and square, then she would personally give the ginseng to Sun Yan. Whether Sun Yan could keep the ginseng in her possession or not wasn’t her problem anymore.

Tong Yan and Ji Shan Shan were both stunned for a moment as they didn’t think that Jing Yun Zhao would trust them with such a precious item.

As they looked around, they saw the surrounding people staring at them with a scorching and hungry look, as the onlooker’s eyes turned green with envy.

“Okay just leave it to me! But can I take a look at the ginseng?” Ji Shan Shan asked directly without any pretense.

While Tong Yan held the brocade box carefully before replying, “Rest assured, other than you and Sun Yan, I won’t let anyone take it.”

“Tong Yan! Let me take a look…”

“Stop causing trouble! If even a single ginseng whisker were to fall, it’s value would fall!” Tong Yan instantly refuted.

The reason why Jing Yun Zhao chose the both of them was because in this entire medicine fair, she was most familiar with the both of them. Furthermore, she more or less understood the characters of both of them.

Tong Yan was honest, straightforward and didn’t speak much, but was sincere and serious when doing something. Moreover, he had a set of rules that he wouldn’t break in his heart, and he knew how to differentiate between right and wrong, and although he was still young, he had a stable and steady personality, causing people to trust him.

As for Ji Shan Shan…

Although she was a stubborn and reckless person, and had an unpleasant attitude and tone of voice, adding on to the fact that no one could change her mind when she decided on something, ultimately her character was still fine and wasn’t malicious.

Jing Yun Zhao gave Ji Shan Shan a glance before saying, “If I win, then you can look at the ginseng as much as you want.”

Since the item was a wagered item, naturally it had to be kept carefully.

Hearing her words, Ji Shan Shan instantly became excited.

Ji Shan Shan could guarantee that if Sun Yan were to win, she would instantly take the ginseng that was in her and Tong Yan’s possession away. Moreover, not only would Sun Yan take the ginseng away, she wouldn’t even let them take a look from a far distance, not to mention up close. Even if Cui Jun tried to convince her, it would be useless due to the fact that Cui Jun had never opposed his cousin before.

As a result, Ji Shan Shan was conflicted and experienced an inner turmoil, thinking, Who do I wish for to win the wager!?

At the same time, Sun Yan finally gave a sigh of relief.

Although she hated Jing Yun Zhao, the words Jing Yun Zhao said caused her to be satisfied. After all, if the ginseng were to be taken by the Cui Family, she wouldn’t have the ability to get it back, and if so, what was the point of her to compete in this bet?

However now, she could go all out and compete to the best of her abilities!
