Chapter 255: The Easiest Way to Hell Was to Offend Shen Yi's Woman!

"This year's champion is the Grace Palace Restaurant!"

"Congratulations, Miss Lu!"

"Please open the Grace Palace soon! We couldn't wait to taste those dumplings again!"

Each dish presented by Grace Palace was amazingly delicious. The pork buns helped the local farmers; the meat pie reminded them that their town might look simple and ordinary, but it was special in its own way. Lastly, the wonton soup reminded them of being a human, a good human.

Mo Lihui knew she lost big time, but how could Lu Xinyi be so ruthless and ask for her reward at such a time? Making her give up the deed of Blue Haven Restaurant—might as well kill herself and let the earth swallow her alive!

"Gege..." She looked pitifully at her older brother, but Mo Liwei couldn't do anything to save her now. Had his sister listened to his warnings, she wouldn't suffer humiliation in public like this.

Seeing his little sister beg for help, Mo Liwei sighed.

"Miss Lu, can you spare my sister?" He begged Lu Xinyi. This time, his sister would surely know not to offend someone she didn't know. Although she started this problem, losing their restaurant to their competitor was too much for him.

"Does your family refuse to acknowledge this bet? Wasn't your sister the one who instigated it? If you can't afford to lose, then she shouldn't have bet your properties at stake!"

Lu Xinyi refused to let go of her prey! She was in for the kill!

Mo Liwei's face turned ashen. He hadn't expected that Lu Xinyi was serious on taking the Blue Haven from them.

"What do I need to do for you to let my sister and restaurant go?"

"You must be joking, Mo Liwei."

"Lu Xinyi! Haven't you have enough? Was humiliating me today for three times not enough? Who do you think you are?! You are just..." Mo Lihui's words were cut off when she noticed Shen Yi appeared beside Lu Xinyi.

"Who am I? Really, Miss Mo?" Lu Xinyi forced a smile. "You know I'd like to see things from your point of view, but I can't seem to. I wonder what language you are speaking, 'cause it sounds bullshit."

She scoffed. Her small frame leaned on her husband's larger body.

"Let go?' She turned her attention to Mo Liwei. "Will your sister let me go if she won today? If the one who lost today was me, you wouldn't bother to stop your sister from ruining my marriage!"

Marriage? What? They were married?

Hearing the truth from Lu Xinyi, Mo Lihui lost the color on her face while her brother almost puked blood from what he heard.

So this was the reason why Lu Xinyi didn't want to spare Mo Lihui. Had she not dare to take away Shen Yi from Lu Xinyi, Mo Lihui wouldn't have to lose their restaurant and ruin her reputation.

A married man... Mo Lihui's knees gave up, and she fell to the floor. How could she be so stupid not to notice? It was clear that Shen Yi was really into Lu Xinyi, and there was no chance for her to get his attention.

Her eyes sought out Shen Yi for confirmation. This time, she got what she hoped for—his undivided attention. His gaze was so cold that it was enough to break whatever hope she held in her. In his eyes, she was nothing but a nuisance that offended his favored wife.

She lost even before the battle started. It was a tragedy, and she had no one but herself to blame.

"If I was the one who lost today, will you grant my plea and let my husband go? Wasn't it your sister who wanted to humiliate me today?"

"I believe Miss Lu should be the bigger person this time. My sister was wrong for offending you not only once, but you won today. Not only Lihui lost her face today. What else do you want?"

"What do we want?" Shen Yi narrowed his eyes before turning to his wife, placing a hand to her shoulder. "Mo Lihui dared to offend my lady. It's only fair if she pays for it. Do you think she can get away without paying the price of offending the Young Madam of the Shen family?"

Shen Yi's words made everyone's expression turn black. What had they done?

Young Madam of the Shen family... did this mean...?

Their jaws dropped in recognition. This man... this man was Shen Yi! The Shen family's infamous young master! To be in the receiving line of Shen Yi's wrath wasn't very ideal. Everyone knew that whoever dared to offend him would be doomed.

Their attention turned to Mo Lihui. This bitch! What would happen to their small town if Lu Xinyi lost?

Surely, Shen Yi would not let them go so easily. He would crush not only the Blue Haven but everyone who sided Mo Lihui! Lu Xinyi must be extremely lucky for she was able to defeat Mo Lihui. Her win for today had saved everyone from Shen Yi's grudges.

It was too late for the Mo siblings to save themselves.

The easiest way to go to hell was to offend Shen Yi's woman!

Lu Xinyi was tired of this act. She yawned and pulled her husband's sleeve.

"Dear, I'm tired. I think I have enough for today."

"Then we should retire for the night." Shen Yi would never deny his wife's request. He pulled her away from the crowd and started to make way to the exit. "I expect to receive the deed of Blue Haven Restaurant within three days, or else expect an eviction letter from my lawyer soon."

Shen Yi was taught by his parents never to settle for the second best, and that's what each and every single woman appeared to be before and after meeting Lu Xinyi. They were all second best to Lu Xinyi. For him, she was nothing but perfection.
