They’ve all known each other for a few years now, and finally, there’s an opportunity. He trusts Edmond, after all, that silly grin is indeed foolish. However, he couldn’t imagine Edmond doing something even sillier, actually engaging in an online romance. Could it be he’s got a face that screams "gullible"? "Edmond, have you guys had a video call on WeChat? Or exchanged photos? Did you tell her what you do for work?" Lu Xingzhi’s expression was indescribable; could Edmond have been scammed? "Have you given her any money?" Lu Xingzhi asked as a final question. "I did send her some money; she said that her grandmother who raised her was sick and needed a payment fee, so I transferred it to her." Edmond was very considerate, unwilling to let the girl he liked be anxious and upset, so he transferred some money to her. After sending the money, he felt quite delighted. Huo Jincheng and Lu Xingzhi exchanged a glance; this was a classic encounter with a scammer. "Edmond, don’t you think you’ve met a scammer? You haven’t even seen each other in person, and yet you send her money. I think, the amount you sent wouldn’t be less than a hundred grand, right? There are already many cases of online romance scams here." Huo Jincheng was too embarrassed to call him foolishly rich. "Edmond, regarding these things, really, it’s highly likely there’s a man behind all this." Lu Xingzhi couldn’t believe Edmond was that naive. How could it be... Read complete version only at novel⁂fire.net "No way, my Xuxu wouldn’t scam me. She was studying at that time and now she’s working; each month she steadily repays me. Even though I said there’s no need, she insists. I indeed transferred two hundred grand, but up to now, she has already repaid six grand." Edmond insists that his Xuxu did not scam him; he believes that his Xuxu must be a beautiful, kind girl. Even though they have only chatted, not even a video call. What a significant twist. "Good luck." That’s all she could say. They thought it was a scammer, but it turned out not to be. "Since the wings are grilled, let’s bring them over!" Huo Jincheng unceremoniously took the plate from Edmond’s hands and handed it to Lu Xingzhi. Is this Hua Country’s so-called ’face changing’? Weren’t they just saying it wasn’t needed? "You’ll definitely meet the girl you love." Huo Jincheng spoke to Edmond, now much more cordial. "Uncle, do you really need to do this?" Lu Xingzhi almost wanted to roll her eyes at him. "It’s necessary." Knowing Edmond has someone he loves is enough. Lu Xingzhi: "As long as you’re happy." "Brother, Little Zhi Liao, we’re discussing doing some activities later." Helian Yi approached, "How about billiards or cards, what do you guys think?" "Playing cards!" Lu Xingzhi replied without hesitation. "Pfft..." Shi Huai happened to hear Lu Xingzhi’s choice, he knew. "Little Zhi Liao, we’re not playing mahjong this time, it’s either a card game or bridge." "But I only know how to play mahjong!" Lu Xingzhi said, distressed. "There’s no mahjong here." Shi Huai thought his chance had come, "Just cards." "It’s okay, I’ll teach you. Once you’re familiar, you’ll get the hang of it." Huo Jincheng said, standing by.
