The poor husband I picked up turned out to be from a wealthy family

Chapter 1068 What will be the stakes in this bet?

After hanging up the phone, Yan Bei was in a bad mood and threw the documents in his hand on the table.

Then he stood up and walked outside.

Shen Qing was in the bedroom at that moment.

Yan Bei walked in.

Upon seeing Shen Qing, his previously indifferent face instantly broke into a smile.

"Honey, why did you take so long?"

"I went to the hospital," Shen Qing said.

"Go to the hospital?" Shen Qing asked anxiously. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"not me."

"Who is that?"

"It's Wu Jiao's son. He's sick and hospitalized," Shen Qing said.

Yan Bei nodded.

Shen Qing continued, "I plan to help her."

"Help her?" Yan Bei looked at Shen Qing with some surprise.

"Yes, her son's surgery will cost 500,000. She can't afford it."

So you're going to help her?

"Yes."

"Okay, I'll support you no matter what you do."

"Ah."

"Honey, I need to go to the company in a bit."

"Your injury hasn't healed yet, so you should rest for a couple of days before going."

"I'm fine, there's something at the company that I need to handle."

"Then how about I go with you?"

"This……"

Shen Qing curled the corners of her lips. "What? You don't want me to go to the company with you?"

"No, then let's go!"

"it is good!"

Shen Qing accompanied Yan Bei to the company.

Shen Qing drove her car and parked it in front of the Yuzheng Group company.

Looking at Yan Bei, he said, "You go up first, I'll go park the car."

"it is good!"

Yan Bei got out of the car and went inside.

Shen Qing parked her car to the side and walked into the lobby of Yuzheng Group.

Just then, she heard people talking.

“You see, President Yan seemed quite unhappy when he went over just now.”

"Haven't you heard? The piece of land that President Yang had been eyeing for so long was snatched away by someone else. No wonder he's not happy."

"Who's so bold as to try and steal something from President Yan?"

"I heard it's that playboy from the Gu family, Gu Yuan."

"Gu Yuan? Isn't he the Sanda champion from this year?"

"Yes, I don't know what's going on this year. Instead of focusing on his Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) career, he's inexplicably getting involved in business."

"..."

Shen Qing heard everything the others said clearly.

No wonder Yan Bei was in a bad mood earlier; it turns out that the land he had been eyeing for so long was snatched away by someone else.

Shen Qing walked over and asked directly, "Is what you're saying true?"

When the group saw Shen Qing arrive, Shen Qing instantly became nervous.

"Mrs. Yan... Madam Yan."

"We only heard about it."

"We don't know anything."

Shen Qing lowered her eyes. If she had heard about it, then there must be such news.

She quickly got on the elevator.

Came to Yan Bei's office.

He knocked on the door. Then he went inside.

Yan Bei looked at her and asked, "Wife, please sit wherever you like. I need to take care of some work."

Shen Qing walked to Yan Bei's side and looked at him seriously, "Are you very unhappy?"

"Have it?"

"Yes, is something wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong. It's probably just that work was a bit urgent. I haven't had a proper rest yet, and I need to deal with it as soon as possible," Yan Bei said.

"Besides these!"

"Wife, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Qing curled the corners of her lips. "Did someone steal something from you?"

Yan Bei was taken aback for a moment, then twitched the corner of his mouth slightly. "How did you know?"

"I've heard that the land you've been eyeing for so long was snatched away by someone else, is that right?"

Yan Bei lowered his eyes, remained silent for a few seconds, and then nodded.

"So what do you plan to do?" Shen Qing continued to ask.

"Gu Yuan said he wants me to meet him tomorrow afternoon. He said he wants to make a bet with me, but I don't know what the bet is."

"Gu Yuan's reputation has always been bad. He's just a playboy from the Gu family. Do you think he'll keep his word?"

Yan Bei curled the corners of his lips. "I'm not sure either, but he has no reason to go back on his word. He must know me well too. If he doesn't keep his word to me, then his good days are numbered. Fair competition is fine, and I'll accept the consequences of my bet."

Shen Qing nodded. "I believe you can win."

Yan Bei sighed, "The land is very important to me right now. I didn't expect Gu Yuan to act so quickly."

Shen Qing smiled and said, "After you finish your work, have the driver take you home. I suddenly remembered I have something to do."

"Okay, you have something to do, go ahead and take care of it!"

"Okay!" Then Shen Qing left Yuzheng Group.

She planned to talk to Gu Yuan about this.

She also knew that Gu Yuan spent a lot of time in Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) gyms.

She drove directly to the Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) gym where Gu Yuan usually stayed.

……

Shen Qing went straight inside when she arrived.

"Hello, do you have a reservation?" the staff at the Sanda venue asked.

"No, I'm here to find someone."

"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Gu Yuan," Shen Qing said.

"You're looking for our boss?"

"Yes."

"I'm really sorry, but our boss is currently training. He doesn't have time to see anyone else."

"Then tell him I work for Yuzheng Group."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The staff member left for a moment and then returned.

"Our boss is up ahead; he's letting you pass."

"OK, thanks."

Shen Qing walked over to the place the staff pointed out.

Gu Yuan was sitting in a rest area.

She approached and said, "Mr. Gu, I apologize for disturbing you. I am Yan Bei's wife."

Gu Yuan looked up at Shen Qing and said, "Madam Yan is indeed as beautiful as she is known. She is truly stunning."

“Mr. Gu, I’m here today to talk to you about something important.”

"You didn't come here because of that land, did you?"

“Indeed, Mr. Gu is truly intelligent.” Shen Qing sat down.

Gu Yuan said, "I've already informed Young Master Yan. I want to make a bet with him. If he wins, I'll give him the land; if he loses, there's nothing I can do."

"What's the stake?" Shen Qing asked.

"I'm sorry, Madam Yan, I can't tell you right now."

"Mr. Gu, you've been running a Sanda gym for a long time. What's the point of you seizing the land?"

"Miss Shen, you don't understand. Land symbolizes status. Whoever gets it first gets it."

"Mr. Gu, is there nothing else we can discuss?"

“Madam Yan, if you’re only after this land, then please leave. If you want it, let Young Master Yan make a bet with me and we’ll settle the score.”

"Mr. Gu, aren't you going too far by doing this?"

"I don't think anyone is without the right to fight for their own position. Although the Yan family is powerful and influential in the capital, it doesn't mean that others shouldn't be allowed to fight for it!"

"But……"

"Alright, Madam Yan, please go back now. I'll make a bet with Yan Bei in two days; whether I win or lose is up to him."

“Mr. Gu, my husband really needs that piece of land, and I can give you more money.”

“Madam Yan, do you think I’m also short of money? Although I’m not as rich as the Yan family, I’m not that bad off.”

Shen Qing knew there was no room for negotiation with Gu Yuan.

She didn't say anything more and just walked away.

She was wondering what the stakes would be, and whether Yan Bei could win.
