The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 581

Chapter 581: Chapter 577: The Strange Brigade Leader

Chen JianShe rubbed the top of his head pitifully, pouting. "But I won, didn’t I?"

"That was a fluke. He only had to taunt you a few times before you agreed to the bet. If you hadn’t gotten lucky, do you really think you would’ve won?"

Chen JianShe, who had been so cocky just a moment ago, was now completely crestfallen.

He knew his Brother Leng was right.

’If it weren’t for my good luck, I would have definitely lost.’

Seeing that he knew he was wrong, Leng Yuan’s tone softened slightly.

"Next time, think through the consequences before you act. Don’t bite off more than you can chew."

"Still, you deserve some credit. You handled the end of it well."

Chen JianShe was the type to light up at the slightest praise. Though he’d been crestfallen a moment before, Leng Yuan’s compliment instantly restored his spirits.

"You bet! He dared to set me up, so of course I had to strike back."

In the end, Yun Hao didn’t kneel, and he didn’t press the issue. It might have looked like he had lost out,

but that wasn’t the case at all.

If word got out that Yun Hao had welshed on a bet by not kneeling, it would be a mark against his character. No one in the village wanted to associate with someone of poor character.

Leng Yuan shook his head. Chen JianShe had considered how this would put Yun Hao in an even worse spot, but he didn’t realize that forcing Yun Hao to kneel would have made *him* seem aggressive and overbearing.

People tend to sympathize with the underdog; they would have thought he was taking a simple bet too far.

So this way, not only would Yun Hao be left stewing in regret, but Chen JianShe would also come across as tolerant and magnanimous. It was killing two birds with one stone.

Chen JianShe thought it over for a moment, and it dawned on him.

He couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up.

’No wonder Brother Leng is so incredible! Yun Hao’s petty little schemes are child’s play in front of him.’

Chen JianShe was about to lay on a bit more flattery, hoping to bring up the subject of staying for dinner, when he heard a knock at the door.

He immediately leaped to his feet. "Brother Leng, don’t get up. I’ll get it."

With that, he shot out the door like a little whirlwind.

Leng Yuan shook his head and chuckled. ’As if I’d fight him for it.’

Chen JianShe wasn’t thinking about any of that. His every action right now was calculated to earn him an invitation to stay for dinner.
