Sinking into the Sea of Desire: A Wife-Swapping Victim's Confession - Chapter 778 The Final Showdown 3

Although it was a difficult decision, time was of the essence, and before the race began, Dong Kui finally chose number five.
With a gunshot, all the horses galloped off, and this time our moods were reversed.
As I drank, I would steal glances at Dong Kui from time to time. He was staring intently at the screen, unable to close his eyes and rest any longer.
You could see the tension in his heart, but the outcome seemed to be already decided. My number four was far ahead from the start, while his number five, although not far behind, could not catch up at all and instead fell further and further behind.
The closer they got to the finish line, the tighter Dong Kui gripped his wine glass.
This time, without any suspense, my number four crossed the finish line first, the colorful flags waved, and Dong Kui angrily smashed the wine glass in his hand.
Dong Kui's anger was like a thunderclap in a clear sky; the others held their breath, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Inside the room, only Zhang Ting, oblivious to her impending doom, was dancing and frolicking around me.
I was naturally delighted, but I remained outwardly calm. After sitting for a while, waiting for the anger on Dong Kui's face to subside, I smiled gratefully and said, "Mr. Dong, you are too kind."
Dong Kui remained silent, seemingly deep in thought or calculating something.
Seeing his expression, I sighed inwardly. Even if I knew all along, even if I won, he wouldn't keep his promise and willingly let me go down the mountain. After all, this matter was a matter of life and death. The consequences were too severe. Let alone a wicked and powerful figure, even an ordinary person might not keep their word.
However, when the time came, he was still somewhat angry at his breach of promise.
I tentatively asked, "The competition is over. Mr. Dong won the first round, and I won the next two. What about today's bet?"
"Of course Mr. Xu won!" Dong Kui exclaimed with a start, laughing generously.
"And what about our bet?"
I was stunned when Dong Kui admitted it so readily, thinking he would try to deny it.
"A bet is a bet. This young lady can leave anytime she wants," Dong Kui said, gesturing to the woman beside him to pour her a drink.
"Alright, see you later." I was secretly delighted, and then eagerly pulled Zhang Ting to her feet, saying, "Let's go!"
Unexpectedly, Dong Kui spoke up to stop him, saying, "Wait, I meant that young lady, not that Mr. Xu could leave as well."
"What do you mean by that?" I was stunned.
"My only hostage is Miss Zhang. Mr. Xu is my guest, so he's not part of the bet. Besides, we only played one round, so the bet can only be one person," Dong Kui argued.
Seeing that Dong Kui was trying to renege on his promise, Zhang Ting, who had been holding back for a while, finally couldn't take it anymore and cursed, "You old..."
The people behind Dong Kui glared angrily, especially the bearded man, who seemed to want to devour Zhang Ting alive.
Dong Kui was just looking for an excuse, and I didn't want all my efforts to be in vain, so I pulled Zhang Ting back and interrupted, "Since I'm not your hostage, does that mean I can just leave whenever I want?"
"Of course, as long as Mr. Xu can get out of here," Dong Kui said slowly.
"You..." A surge of anger welled up inside me, but I held back and said instead, "Does Mr. Dong intend to go back on his word? We just agreed that if I win, he will let me and her go down the mountain."
"Really? Oh dear, I must have misunderstood. I thought Mr. Xu was making a bet with me to save this young lady."
Dong Kui said innocently, and before I could reply, he chivalrously added, "However, I am also a reasonable person. Since Mr. Xu also wants to leave, it's not impossible. How about we make another bet? If you win, you'll win yourself back too."
I didn't reply, cursing inwardly that it was all bullshit, because I knew in my heart that he had gone to great lengths to lure me here, and now I was his lifeline, his talisman. Even if I won one more game, or even ten more, he would not let me go down the mountain.
They could only settle for second best, saying, "Let's honor the bet we made last time first."
"Escort this young lady down the mountain."
Whether it was because he didn't want to be accused of being untrustworthy, or because he thought Zhang Ting wasn't very useful, Dong Kui agreed as promised.
"Yes." Qiu Qingyun nodded and gestured to Zhang Ting, "Please."
Knowing that Dong Kui was using me as a hostage, Zhang Ting stubbornly said, "If you don't leave, I won't leave either."
"Are you stupid? Get down the mountain!" I glared at Zhang Ting and snapped.
"How could I leave you alone? If anything happens to you, how will I face them?"
There was a hint of grievance in Zhang Ting's voice. I knew she meant well, but now was not the time for sentimentality. I pulled her aside and whispered, "Don't worry, since I dared to come, I naturally have a way to get out. You'll only get in the way and prevent us from leaving."
"But..." Zhang Ting wanted to say something, but I interrupted her, "Okay, that's enough."
"What, does that young lady find this place pleasant and not want to leave?"
Dong Kui suddenly interjected, "If that's the case, I won't be stingy with a few meals."
No one knew if Dong Kui would change his mind if we stayed too long. I replied, "Who says I don't want to? She has urgent business at her company that needs her attention." Then I pushed Zhang Ting and said, "Hurry up and go back. Tell them not to worry about me and to eat on time."
Zhang Ting looked puzzled after hearing this and wanted to ask something, but I didn't give her the chance. I pushed her next to Qiu Qingyun and deliberately said, "Call me after you're safely down the mountain. That's when I'll talk to them about the settlement."
He was worried that Dong Kui might secretly take action, and he said this to him.
Dong Kui naturally understood and smiled, "Get this young lady safely down the mountain."
"Yes." Qiu Qingyun nodded.
Zhang Ting seemed reluctant to leave, glancing back at me every now and then. I gestured for her to leave quickly.
I only felt a little relieved after her figure disappeared from sight.
"I never imagined Mr. Xu was such a romantic," Dong Kui said jokingly.
I smiled but didn't reply.
"Mr. Xu, would you like to take another gamble and win it back for yourself?" Dong Kui invited.
"If I win, will you let me go?" I asked, feigning interest.
"Haha..." Dong Kui laughed, without answering.
I sneered inwardly, but I didn't expose them.
He glanced at the time discreetly, secretly making calculations.
"The person has been released. Mr. Xu agreed to negotiate a settlement?" Dong Kui asked.
"After gambling for so long, it's been exhausting and I'm a little hungry."
Since he stood me up, I certainly won't let him have his way so easily.
"Mr. Xu, what do you mean by this? Do you want to back out?" Dong Kui's expression was slightly agitated.
"Don't worry, I'm not like some people who always do what they say they will do," I said sarcastically.
"Haha, of course, of course, Mr. Xu is not like us roughnecks."
Although Dong Kui was displeased, he smiled broadly and then gestured to the people around him, saying, "Mr. Xu is a guest. Now that the guest is hungry, it is my fault as the host for not being hospitable enough. Quickly arrange a feast, I want to have a good drink with Mr. Xu."
The man nodded and left.
"Thinking about it carefully, I've known Mr. Xu for a while now, and we've met a few times, but we haven't had a meal together yet. I really feel bad about it!" Dong Kui said apologetically.
"Everything there is fate," I said, feigning agreement.
I chatted idly with Dong Kui, and before long, the banquet was ready. Dong Kui invited me to take a seat.
I didn't stand on ceremony, and while we were eating, Qiu Qingyun came back from outside.
I deliberately asked Zhang Ting how she was doing, and he replied that she had been sent back to the city.
I nodded, wanting to confirm, but worried about arousing their suspicion, so I decided to wait and let them come to me on their own.
As time passed, perhaps noticing my lack of unusual behavior, Dong Kui grew suspicious and called to Qiu Qingyun, asking, "How's it going over there?"
I was sitting right next to Dong Kui. Perhaps he thought that since I couldn't get out and couldn't contact the outside world, it wouldn't matter if I heard it. He had no intention of hiding it from me at all.
Qiu Qingyun looked at me with a puzzled expression. Dong Kui shook his head to indicate that everything was fine before he finally spoke, "The money has been sent, but we haven't heard back yet."
"Oh?" Dong Kui looked at me with some confusion.
I kept eating, pretending I wasn't interested, but secretly I was thinking, "This guy seems to be making some preparations too."
"No response?" Not getting anything out of me, Dong Kui muttered to himself, then asked, "Any news from the people monitoring over there?"
Qiu Qingyun shook his head.
"That's strange," Dong Kui muttered, then asked, "Is the car arranged?"
Qiu Qingyun nodded.
I chuckled to myself. It seemed Su Feng had found the person who leaked the information. Thinking of this, the dishes on the table tasted even more delicious.
I ate heartily, but Dong Kui had lost much of his appetite. After thinking for a while, he suddenly looked at me and said, "Mr. Xu, now that the person has been safely returned and you've almost finished eating, shouldn't you fulfill your promise to me?"
"Ah, oh!" After waiting for ages, it finally arrived. I deliberately hesitated, and only when Dong Kui and the others at the table were about to lose their patience did I nod and say, "Okay! Bring me my phone."
"Use my phone!" Dong Kui stopped him.
"You're really careful," I chuckled.
Dong Kui didn't refute me. I took the phone and dialed Su Feng's number.
Everyone looked at me expectantly, secretly laughing to themselves. No matter what, as long as there was a way to live, no one wanted to die.
He deliberately turned on speakerphone so that everyone could hear him.
When the call connected, the first thing I asked was, "How is Zhang Ting?"
"We're back safe and sound," Su Feng replied.
I glanced at Dong Kui, and seeing him nod and smile back, I said loudly, "Since that's the case, then it's all right! This was just a misunderstanding. Let them take the person in!"
Hearing me say that, Dong Kui and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you alright?" Su Feng asked.
"It's alright, I already said it was a misunderstanding. They're treating us to a good meal and drinks, having a great time! They'll be back tomorrow," I said loudly.
"Alright then, I'll have them cancel the operation," Su Feng replied.
I hung up the phone and said to Dong Kui, "So, Mr. Dong, did I keep my word?"
"Haha, Mr. Xu is indeed a man of exceptional talent. I was just being cynical. Come, let's toast Mr. Xu together!" Dong Kui's doubts finally disappeared, and he called to the others.
"Drink, drink!" I laughed and raised my glass in a righteous manner.
With the problem solved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and happily started drinking and shouting for food.
Even the bearded man no longer looked at me with such fierce eyes.
After downing several drinks, seeing the atmosphere getting lively, I considerately said, "Those brothers have worked hard all day, let's have a few drinks together!"
As soon as the deal was settled, Dong Kui thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Tell the brothers in the yard that everything's fine now, come in and eat. We're happy today, let them eat and drink to their heart's content."
"Boss..." Qiu Qingyun called out to remind him.
"It's alright, Mr. Xu is still with us, what are you afraid of?"
Dong Kui waved his hand to stop them, gesturing to the others, "Besides, there are so many of our brothers on the road. If someone goes up the mountain, how could we not know?"
"Haha, that's right, Brother Qiu, you're overthinking it."
The bearded man spoke up in a loud voice to help me.
"At first I also had doubts about Mr. Xu, but now I believe him!"
"Perhaps it's the joy of escaping death, or perhaps it's the alcohol taking effect," Dong Kui said with a laugh.
"No matter what you do, the premise is trust, otherwise nothing can be accomplished. If we still doubt and scheme against each other when we're trying to make peace, things will never be resolved," I said in a lecturing tone.
"Well said, come on, have a drink." Dong Kui raised his glass.
Everyone raised their glasses, and someone went out to relay Dong Kui's message.
Qiu Qingyun also went out. I was a little annoyed, guessing that he was probably going to arrange for the people on the mountain road to keep an eye on things.
Although he was anxious, he was helpless. The people on the mountain road were all outsiders, and Dong Kui didn't care. It was difficult to persuade him to appease them, especially since he also needed some reassurance.
This is my limit. The rest depends on Su Feng. I can only do my best and leave the rest to fate.
As we ate and drank, time passed by. During the meal, I tried my best to flatter Dong Kui, praising his local reputation and other such things. However, he repeatedly waved his hand and replied that the real god was behind me.
I knew he was just being polite; the happy smile on his face betrayed him.
Dong Kui was happy, and the rest of the people were happy too. They drank the wine like water, and I would occasionally slack off and secretly pour out a few cups.
As the appointed time drew closer, I grew increasingly nervous, excited, and fearful. I was afraid something might go wrong, but excited that I would finally have a chance to get revenge and take down this tiger.
My hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, but luckily I had drunk quite a bit, so I could pretend to be drunk to cover it up.
As the time drew near, there was still no movement, which made people a little suspicious. They wondered if something had happened to Su Feng.
A burly man with a flushed face and bare chest stumbled in, frantically shouting, "B-Big Brother, there are police outside..."
