Ye Xian stood on the shore, under the expectant gaze of the man, squeezing out a smile with difficulty that, however, resembled more of a cry. Bo Tingshen's inky Feather Jade Eyebrows slightly knitted together. Wu Hui also reached the shore, a full dozen seconds slower than Bo Tingshen, not to mention he was panting heavily as soon as he emerged from the water, seemingly having exhausted all his strength, his arms hitting the water in frustration. The boss had initially told him to give his all in the race, yet he was somewhat distracted, thinking how could any ordinary person possibly swim faster than him. But as soon as President Bo started, he left him far behind, not to mention that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up to him in the slightest. He was a four-hundred-meter short track swimmer after all, his stamina couldn't last too long, and he simply couldn't compare with President Bo's superior endurance and tenacity. In this race, he, a champion, was beaten like a weak chicken! Seeing Wu Hui both exhausted and angry, having also given his all just now, Ye Xian didn't know what to say, but silently swallowed his teeth. Consider it spending one million for a lesson. Indeed, dreaming of extracting benefits from a capitalist is nothing but a daydream! On the other side, Shangguan Yunli suddenly started applauding, his face beaming with joy as he said, "Let us congratulate today's most honored birthday star, Mr. Bo Tingshen, for winning the competition without a doubt." A burst of applause rang out, and amidst his regret, Ye Xian looked up at Shangguan Yunli in confusion. Why is he so happy? Without a doubt? What does he mean? "Now, it's time for the most thrilling moment to announce the betting!" Shangguan Yunli reached out and took the betting box from a staff member nearby. Ye Xian was momentarily stunned. "???" What? Announce the betting? Wasn't it agreed to be anonymous? Follow current novᴇls on novel✶fire.net "What's so exciting about this that it needs to be announced?" "Yes, everyone here is either a longtime friend of Tingshen or a trusted subordinate of President Bo, who doesn't know that President Bo won the Copacabana Cannon annual championship at the age of nineteen? And that he is friends with the world-renowned long-swimmer Philippel! Everyone surely bet on him winning!" "Exactly, I think this bet is just like the competition, without a doubt!" As everyone spoke, Ye Xian was again utterly dumbfounded. Annual championship? And friends with Philippel? How did she not know about this?! Wait a minute... an event from eight years ago, she might not know, but Shangguan Yunli should, right? In knowing this, he agreed with her that the CEO was not good at swimming, yet encouraged her to bet under the misunderstanding, previously agreeing it was to be an anonymous betting game, and now he wants to announce the bets! Is Shangguan Yunli setting her up?! Ye Xian, belatedly realizing, looked at Shangguan Yunli with a glance filled with loathing. Yet Shangguan Yunli's smile grew even more reckless, his face a picture of successful scheming. Ye Xian clenched her teeth, now was not the time to settle scores, she needed to run first! Soon after being announced, she would be the only one who had bet on Wu Hui winning—embarrassing aside, the CEO would definitely flay her! Ye Xian turned to run, but didn't expect that Shangguan Yunli had preemptively arranged for a group of staff to surround her immediately, blocking her escape. "Mr. Ye, we apologize, but to respect the rules of the game, you cannot leave the venue before the betting is announced." Ye Xian: "..." Damn! Shangguan Yunli, this despicable man, wants to doom her to death? Shangguan Yunli: "Since everyone agrees that they bet on Tingshen winning, I'll just directly disclose who bet on Wu Hui, otherwise we can call off this betting game."
