A Favor Done, A Husband Won

Chapter 729 - 723: Sweet Extra—Married Couple Variety Show 208

Under the envious gaze of Hao Jin and Meng Li, Jing Jihan took back the heavier treasure chest as if it were a precious gem.But then he glanced again at Hao Jin and Meng Li’s expressions, paused as if pondering, and said, "We’ve already found a few gold bars, and you don’t have any in your hands now?"

"Yeah..." Meng Li sighed.

Hao Jin also twitched his mouth reluctantly and let out an "ah".

"Here, take this, exchange the lighter one with me, and go find the password yourself." Jing Jihan said sympathetically and exchanged the treasure chests with them.

"Wow, thank you, Mr. Jing. Did you not open this chest with a password either?" Meng Li asked happily.

Hao Jin weighed the chest in his hands, hesitated a bit, and had a slight... suspicion about Mr. Jing’s sudden act of generosity.

If Jing Jihan were truly soft-hearted, he wouldn’t have just done that during the horse race...

But since the exchange was already done, and the heavier one was generally better than the lighter one, Hao Jin assumed Mr. Jing was just too lazy to carry it and didn’t exchange it back.

"No, can’t open it." Jing Jihan responded, turned his head, and said, "Let’s split up and continue looking."

Shi Su walked far with Jing Jihan, turned back, and saw Hao Jin and Meng Li had already walked to the other side, she quickly took out a few other password cards from her sleeve.

After trying for a long time, finally opened the treasure chest.

Once opened, there were eight solid gold bars inside.

"Wow!" Shi Su felt sorry for poor Hao Jin and Meng Li and asked in a low voice, "Do we need to share this with Wei Sinan and the others?"

Jing Jihan placed the previous gold bar inside as well, closed the chest, handed this relatively lighter one to her, and said, "No sharing."

"Isn’t this bad..."

"The verbal contract stated that each found treasure chest and password should be shared equally, but those obtained by clever thinking or deception are not covered by the contract," Jing Jihan gently tapped Shi Su on the forehead, "I’m a businessman, of course, I respect the spirit of the contract. What is not included doesn’t need to be adhered to by anyone."

Shi Su nodded in agreement, but the look in her eyes clearly said, "No business is without deceit."

Jing Jihan chuckled softly, checked the chest in her hand, and although it already contained nine gold bars, it still wasn’t heavier than two rocks, so he continued to let her hold it.

Originally, Shi Su felt a bit guilty towards Hao Jin and that couple, but after reaching a certain degree of misfortune, luck began to change. Within less than fifteen minutes of splitting up, she saw Hao Jin and Meng Li with three chests in their hands wandering through the woods.

"Hey, Shi Su, Mr. Jing." Meng Li turned and saw them, hurried over, and handed over two cards, "Shall we exchange passwords?"

Shi Su just had the intention to help them. As she was about to speak, Jing Jihan had already stepped over.

"Suddenly so many, where did you find them?" Jing Jihan asked while exchanging passwords with them and trying their respective treasure chests.

Hao Jin pointed to a spot behind them near a clump of bushes, "Over there. Initially, I didn’t see a camera, but I noticed there seemed to be a small pit underneath, not deep, not dangerous, but from a farther position, one would instinctively think that spot was off-limits. I took a chance and glanced over, seeing two chests hidden under the rocks."

Jing Jihan tried it out, and the chests Hao Jin had were all quite heavy.

The passwords Hao Jin and Meng Li brought did not open Jing Jihan’s chest, but the passwords from Jing Jihan and Shi Su did help them open one.

Inside, there were three bars.
