Listening to the two of them calculating, Shui Zhenyun shook his head and said, "The method is possible, but with the current situation of the Shui family, I reckon that as long as we dare to say that we want to attack Hua Ruge, they would not listen to our orders."
As a result of Shui Zhenyun's failed etheric plan, his rallying powers at Shui Clan had become extremely low, he was unable to organize his next move.
Shui Xiaoze thought for a while, and finally sighed: "Are we going to let Hua Ruge be so impudent?"
"Yes, grandfather, you don't know how arrogant she is."
"We can only wait for the right moment." Shui Zhenyun said as he sat down. Even his voice seemed to have aged by quite a bit.
Below, Shui Xiaoze and Shui Yuyan were also very frustrated.
"In a few days, the stone gambling event will begin. If we can make some achievements in the event, we will definitely have the right to speak." Shui Zhenyun said as he looked at Shui Yuyan, "Yan'er, since young, you have had great talent in this area. You should represent the younger generation of the Shui family."
"Yes, granddaughter will definitely not let grandfather down." There was hope in Shui Yuyan's eyes once again.
As long as they performed outstandingly in the city meeting, the Shui Family would definitely rise to another level in terms of wealth and reputation. At that time, they would have the chips to deal with Hua Ruge.
Shui Zhenyun nodded, he was certain that he would be relieved to have Shui Yuyan as a participant.
On the other side, Hua Ruge was also preparing for the stone gambling event. She spent the past few days running around, spending all of her store's earnings on buying the mines. However, she spent all her money on buying a mine.
Looking at the land deed in his hand, Hua Ruge regretted not leaving Shui Xiaoze and Shui Xiaoze here to ask the Shui family for treasures.
She estimated the value of her estate and felt that it was just enough for her to participate in the stone gambling event. Her influence was not small, so she should be able to enter the competition.
As she had been busy these few days, Tuoba Rui could only unwillingly heal his injuries, and did not show her face in the palace at all.
After Hua Ruge entered, he saw Young Master Wu Hen waiting in the front hall, drinking tea there.
He had recently gone into seclusion to recuperate, so the two of them had not seen each other for a few days.
"You came out of seclusion? How are you feeling? " Hua Ruge walked over and asked.
"Much better." Young Master Wu Hen looked up at her and asked indifferently: "How have you been recently?"
"Great! I've bought another mine and am just waiting to participate in the competition." Hua Ruge said excitedly.
Seeing the smile on her face, Young Master Wu Hen smirked. "You still want to accumulate capital?"
"I used to think so, but now it doesn't matter. I just want the Shui family to know the consequences of offending me." Hua Ruge said as he sat beside him.
Young Master Wu Hen smiled in agreement, then said: "I came to bid my farewells."
"You're leaving?" Hua Ruge immediately thought of something when he asked this question. Previously, he did say that he would return to the snow mountain to watch over the fierce beast, but later on, he was delayed because of the arena battle.
"It's time to go." Young Master Wu Hen looked at her seriously and said, "I'm not that worried now."
Hua Ruge knew what he was and said with an ashamed look on his face, "I know that you probably won't be able to hear anything I say ?"
"Then don't say it." The Young Master Wu Hen interrupted him and continued, "Living a good life is the greatest comfort to me."
Hua Ruge's nose was a little sour, he nodded and said: "I will, you have to be careful too. If you need my help, you have to deliver some information."
"Alright." The Young Master Wu Hen stood up as he spoke.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry. No matter what, you have to eat something. I'll send you off." Hua Ruge also stood up.
"It's not like I'm coming back. I'll come over to see you when it's more stable." Young Master Wu Hen gently said.
Hua Ruge could only nod his head: "Alright then."2
Young Master Wu Hen laughed, with a wave of his sleeve, a furry ball of meat flew towards Hua Ruge.
Hua Ruge reached out to catch it, and rubbed its head: "Be good, little Jiu, and accompany your master well. Next time we meet, I'll buy you the best dried meat to eat."
Xiao Jiu's fox head continuously rubbed against Hua Ruge's chin, his pitch black eyes filled with intimacy and reluctance.
"If you want me to, let your master bring you back." Hua Ruge was also very reluctant to touch it.
Hearing this, Xiao Jiu repeatedly nodded his head.
After saying his goodbyes, Young Master Wu Hen brought Xiao Jiu and left. Hua Ruge watched Young Master Wu Hen's back and sighed: "Such a good person, when will he be able to find his own happiness?"
"He's gone?" A voice suddenly sounded from behind Hua Ruge, but it was no longer strange that she had won, as Tuoba Rui could sense her Qi, so he would definitely appear once she returned to the residence.
Hua Ruge nodded his head: "He was entrusted by someone to guard a fierce beast."
"He is similar to me from before. He is both lonely people, but his heart is more bitter than mine." Tuoba Rui patted Hua Ruge's shoulder and said: "I also hope that he can find someone that can make him happy."
"Yeah." Hua Ruge replied.
"What have you been up to? "Why not often be at home?" Tuoba Rui asked in dissatisfaction.
"I'm busy with registering for the competition, and the Shui family is bullying me to such an extent. If I don't teach them a lesson, they won't know why the flowers are so red." Hua Ruge said confidently.
Tuoba Rui thought about it and felt that this matter was still risky. Once the Shui family was in a rush, it would not end well, so he said: "I'll accompany you then."
"Nothing will happen this time."
"I will be in closed door cultivation for the next few days. I will definitely be able to help you." Tuoba Rui said again.
Seeing that she was insisting on Hua Ruge's decision, she said: "Alright, then go and heal your injuries first."
Tuoba Rui kissed her heavily on the lips before leaving in satisfaction.
At the same time, the Tian Family hosting the competition received a card from Hua Ruge. Patriarch Tian laughed: This little girl is really dishonest, she actually wants to participate in the stone gambling event.
The aide below said, "I heard that her stone-gambling skills are really good. She has some influence in the other stonewalls, but her industry is too few and doesn't meet the requirements to participate."
"I'd really like to see her performance." The Patriarch Tian laughed as he threw Hua Ruge's invitation onto a stack by the participating clan's side.
"This little girl will definitely give people a pleasant surprise. I believe that there will be many people who will look forward to it." The aide said.
The Patriarch Tian smiled meaningfully and said: "If her performance this time is not bad, we should consider recommending it to the higher ups."
"But her talent doesn't seem to be that high. This doesn't meet the requirements from the higher ups." The aide asked curiously.
"Of course, non-ordinary people cannot be measured by conventional methods. I believe the higher-ups will be satisfied." The Patriarch Tian persisted.
