Zhou Wanwan naturally knew what was going on; the tiger's paws and limbs were entangled by the thin roots of the Old Scholar Tree.

But those around him were completely dumbfounded, Fu Cheng'an spat out a mouthful of water:

"What's going on? Why is that tiger kneeling on the ground?"

Hey! Have you lost your mind? Get moving! You're a tiger, for crying out loud!

Zhao Rui was also extremely anxious. He looked at the tiger and said, "What happened to you? Hurry up and move! It's just a wolf, what's the big deal?"

The two of them could no longer care about anything else and rushed to the nearest point in the arena, roaring at the tiger.

The tiger was furious. These two lunatics! If it could move, wouldn't it?

It really wanted to drag those two people in so they could experience the pain of being bullied.

All the referees were dumbfounded, and naturally, the wolf won in the end.

The wolf was led back in a haughty and arrogant manner, and the Old Scholar Tree released the tiger.

The tiger finally felt lighter and ran two laps around the field.

Zhao Rui rolled his eyes in anger:

Are you sick? Why didn't you move during the match?

Now you're moving around so much, is that fun?

The tiger roared loudly at him, startling Zhao Rui.

Zhao Rui was furious and went straight back to the private room.

Zhou Wanwan gave a shout, and then saw 10 of her subordinates take all her belongings away.

Zhao Rui was startled. "Where did these people come from? I don't think you usually have any guards!"

Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said:

"Yes, my guards usually keep a low profile and stay hidden in the shadows."

However, these guards are all just for show; they're only good for carrying my things, nothing more.

Rong Jin, standing beside him, twisted her handkerchief and said:

"Fourth Young Master, since she's your servant and has won so much money, isn't she completely at your disposal?"

I think the money we put in should be returned to us.

Zhao Rui looked at Zhou Wanwan and said:

"Zhou Wanwan, what do you think? You must consider money as dirt, right?"

I think you're not short of money, so why don't you return all our money to us?

Zhou Wanwan rolled her eyes and said:

"Zhao Rui, do you have some serious illness?"

If it weren't for the 10 taels of silver you give me every month, I really wouldn't want to go to your house.

Only by joining a prominent family like that can you meet more people and have better opportunities.

Zhao Rui was so angry he was panting heavily. "I knew you were an incredibly snobbish, greedy, and money-grubbing woman."

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said:

"Yes, yes, you're right, I'm not like you guys!"

He was arrogant and proud, always claiming to be rich, but when he actually lost money, he made others hand over their money.

Have you ever seen someone vomit up what they've eaten?

Do you really want to eat what I vomited up?

Everyone was speechless. Zhao Rui shouted, "Enough talk! Are you going to give me the valuables or not?"

Zhou Wanwan said bluntly, "No! I earned all this money myself, why should I give it to you?"

Rong Jin's eyes reddened as she said:

"Actually, it's not about the money; it's just that you've taken so much money from everyone, and they're all in a difficult position to explain it to you."

Have you ever considered their needs even the slightest bit?

Zhou Wanwan frowned and said:

Why should I consider their needs?

I'm not their parent, I have no obligation to do so.

"How about you make them kneel down and call me 'Mother'? Then I'll consider it."

Rong Jin, her eyes red, said, "How can you be so shameless? You even let them call you 'mother'? Who do you think you are?"

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "That makes sense. I really am nothing, so please don't ask me for anything."

Suddenly, someone spoke up, "If I kowtow to you and call you 'mother,' will you return my things?"

Zhou Wanwan saw a boy and spoke.

She nodded and said, "It depends on my mood."

The boy suddenly knelt down and kowtowed three times earnestly, saying, "Mother, Mother, Mother, Mother, Mother..."

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "Alright, get up!"

Rong Jin was standing nearby, said, "Lin Xiuyuan, how can you be so shameless? You actually called her 'Mother'."

Lin Xiuyuan said:

"I do what I want, it's none of your business! Mom, can I have my money back now?"

I paid 100,000 taels of silver today, but my elderly mother is ill. I just paid it all, and now I'm backing out."

Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said:

"Well, here's the 100,000 taels of silver back to you. I gave you this 10,000 taels because I thought you were a nice guy."

Also, your mother is sick, right? I know some medical skills; I can help treat her.

Lin Xiuyuan looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "Really? Your Majesty, hahaha, thank you so much!"

Zhou Wanwan sat down in the chair and said, "You're welcome. I'm in a good mood today, and I won so much money, so it's only right to give me a tip!"

The entire arena erupted in cheers.

Many people rushed up to Zhou Wanwan and said, "Mother..."

Zhou Wanwan hadn't expected these people to act this way. She said helplessly, "Line up, one at a time. Xing'an, have your silver ready, just one tael."

Zheng Xing'an quickly went down to prepare, and after a while, several boxes were brought up. When they were opened, they found that they were full of silver.

The people in the arena all knelt down and called out "Mother." When Zhou Wanwan heard them call out "Mother," she gave each of them one tael of silver.

The men were overjoyed when they saw the silver. "Thank you, Mother! Remember to call me next time something like this happens!"

Some people took the opportunity to try and get more; one person had already received one, but turned around and tried to get another.

As a result, the Old Ancestor discovered it.

Zhou Wanwan laughed and said, "You're quite greedy! You've taken one serving after another. Someone, take all the money out of him."

The man yelled, "Why should I? I behaved perfectly. Are you doing this on purpose? Do you just not want to pay?"

After everyone pulled 11 taels of silver from the man, Zhou Wanwan smiled and said:

"I really don't care about the eleven taels of silver. Just distribute it."

Since I dare to take out so much money, I'm not someone who particularly cares about money.

But what you're doing disgusts me. Why should I listen to you?

The man retorted angrily, "You brat, you'd better let me go right now! I know the city lord of Yanmen Pass; he's my good buddy."

Zhou Wanwan said "Oh?" and then asked, "You know the city lord of Yanmen Pass? Really? Who do you know?"

The man said smugly, "Of course it's true! He and I are sworn brothers, you just wait and see!"

Zhou Wanwan sneered and chased the man away.

The people behind continued, and each time someone called out "Mother," they received one tael of silver.

Sometimes, seeing how pitiful those families were, Zhou Wanwan would give them an extra tael or two of silver.

Zheng Xing'an was standing nearby, said, "Master, if we keep sending them like this, won't we go bankrupt?"
