Chapter 669: Chapter 0669: Arousing Fighting Spirit

Mo Hongsheng paused slightly before looking up, and found himself dumbfounded.

All he saw was Tang Ming already enjoying food at the lobby coffee table with the three ladies, a table full of takeout that was almost finished. They had actually come out before him.

"How are you guys here?" Xiao Wen cried out in astonishment immediately.

"We cleared the game ages ago. We’ve been waiting here for an hour now; it’s so boring."

Li Xiaoli looked annoyed as she watched Mo Hongsheng and Xiao Wen. She had been the first one to speak just now.

"Cleared it an hour early? How is that possible?"

Mo Hongsheng’s complexion changed slightly. Although the escape room’s puzzles were not difficult for him, they shouldn’t have been so easy for ordinary people. It took him nearly three hours to get through, and these people actually managed to do it an hour before him? No way.

"Whether it’s possible or not, it’s the truth."

Li Xiaoli held a slice of pizza, triumphantly stating, "Look, we’re almost done with our food and you just got out. If we had known you were this weak, we wouldn’t have bothered competing with you. What a waste of time."

"It’s impossible. That’s absolutely impossible; you must have cheated."

Xiao Wen shouted angrily, his face unsightly. How could these people be smarter than the young master? There had to be something wrong.

"Ahem."

At that moment, Ma Hu walked over and said awkwardly, "Ladies and gentlemen, these people did indeed clear the game ahead of time, and I can assure you that they didn’t cheat; they played by the rules."

"How could this be?"

The usually confident Mo Hongsheng’s face darkened further. He had never lost this badly; could Tang Ming really be that clever?

"Hehe, Manager Ma has testified for us. We’ve indeed won this time."

Tang Ming, holding a chicken drumstick, mumbled with a mouth full of food, "How would you like to settle your million, Young Master Mo? Cash or transfer? These takeout orders are waiting to be paid with your money."

"Damn it."

Mo Hongsheng cursed under his breath as he pulled out his phone to transfer ten million to Tang Ming, but no matter what, he couldn’t comprehend how they had been faster than him.

"Thanks for the ten million, ha. If you come across such a fine opportunity again, you’re welcome to challenge me anytime; I’ll be here," Tang Ming said with a grin on his face. He then bowed his head and focused on eating, no longer paying any attention to Mo Hongsheng and Xiao Wen.

"Don’t get cocky. It’s just ten million. Once my young master tops the final exams, the Chen Group is a billion-dollar enterprise. We’ll have more than enough to make up for this loss," Xiao Wen stared at Tang Ming, gritting his teeth as he spoke.

"Oh really? Jun Tianhao Hotel is also quite valuable. It feels a bit embarrassing to know such a fine hotel will soon be mine."

Tang Ming responded without even lifting his head.

"Hahaha, right, right, right! Once Brother Tang Ming wins the hotel, we must stay in the presidential suite for a few days to enjoy it thoroughly!" Li Xiaoli gleefully added fuel to the fire.

"Let’s go." Mo Hongsheng gave Tang Ming a deep look before turning to walk out, conceding defeat gracefully, showcasing his character.

"Sir, as you’ve cleared the challenge, our club would like to award you a membership card. We welcome you to come and play anytime."

Ma Hu hurriedly pulled out a golden card and called out loudly.

"I don’t need it. Keep it for yourself."

Mo Hongsheng answered without turning back, unable to hide the frustration and irritation in his voice.

"If they don’t want it, give it to us."

Li Xiaoli immediately stood up and snatched the membership card. Although they wouldn’t come to play again, it represented the trophy of victory and held sentimental value.

"All of you are truly experts."

Ma Hu exclaimed in admiration. Since the opening of his place, no one had ever successfully cleared the Secret Room Chain challenge. Yet, today saw two groups of experts achieving that feat, breaking the record twice in succession.

"Let’s go. Having eaten our fill, where’s our next stop?"

Tang Ming tossed aside a chicken bone and asked while letting out a satisfied burp.

"Of course to the Castle of Opportunities!"

Li Xiaoli shouted excitedly, "We’re going to sweep through the treasures of the Castle of Opportunities and make a hefty profit."

"Today’s been such a blast. Let’s keep the fun going."

Liu Mengting gave it some thought and was also eager to continue witnessing little Whitey’s extraordinary abilities.

"I don’t mind; whatever you decide is fine by me."

Xia Wei’er patted her backpack in front of her and responded with a smile.

"Alright, then off to the Castle of Opportunities."

Once the decision was unanimous, Tang Ming stood up and began to head out.

Mo Hongsheng walked out of the club with an ugly expression and glanced at his watch, "Let’s go home."

"We haven’t waited for the contact person yet; are we just going to go back like this?"

Little Wen looked weakly at Mo Hongsheng, feeling guilty and self-reproachful for causing him to lose ten million because of her making trouble.

"We’ve waited so long without seeing anyone; it’s better not to do business with such unreliable people."

Mo Hongsheng’s face showed disgust. He, who was seasoned in business, valued reliability the most. Moreover, he definitely wouldn’t have lost if he could have gotten his hands on the goods this time.

"I’m sorry, it was my caprice that caused Young Master to lose money."

Seeing Mo Hongsheng so angry, Little Wen hung her head in shame.

"It’s fine; your capriciousness is good and so is the lost money."

Mo Hongsheng shook his head, looking into the distance: "If it hadn’t been for this competition, I really wouldn’t have taken Tang Ming seriously. I didn’t expect him to win so much from me this time. Therefore, after going back, I must prepare earnestly for the final exam. Otherwise... the outcome is uncertain."

"Ah!"

Little Wen gasped in surprise. This was the first time she saw Mo Hongsheng show such unease. It seemed that the bet with Tang Ming not only failed to undermine Tang Ming’s momentum but even shook Mo Hongsheng’s confidence.

She had to find a way to ensure the Young Master’s victory. Tang Ming must not win, Little Wen silently vowed in her heart.

In fact, Little Wen misunderstood. The defeat didn’t dent Mo Hongsheng’s spirit; instead, it fueled his fighting spirit. Since he lost this time, he must win the final exam competition. Mo Hong was not a person who accepted defeat easily.

"Brother Mo, I’ve been looking for you so hard."

When Mo Hongsheng and Little Wen reached the parking lot, they suddenly heard someone calling out.

"Zhen Xiaosa?"

Mo Hongsheng turned his head and saw a disheveled Zhen Xiaosa running towards them.

"Yes, yes, yes, I’m your Brother Xiaosa."

After Zhen Xiaosa got closer, he immediately lifted his head and brushed back his hair. He had been squatting outside the escape room club for a long time, but since Tang Ming and his group were sitting in the hall, he didn’t dare to go in. When he saw Mo Hongsheng come out, he hurriedly followed to greet him.

Originally, Zhen Xiaosa had planned to go home and report the situation to his family. On the way, he made a call to his father to report the situation in advance, and as a result, he got a thorough scolding.
