Good news for you all! I found a fan translation site that had already done 2/3 of The Bet epilogue. Here is the link: https://missjade09.livejournal.com/9391.html (Once you get to the page, click on the bolded “Chapter 1”. Once you are done reading, click on “next” at the top of the page to go to the next chapter.) I am assuming the translator won’t be finishing the rest of the epilogue any time soon since the last update was way back in 2016 so I will just finish up the rest.

Chapter 5 The Bet: The first one wins.

Late at night, Qiangu is deep asleep when her bed cover is suddenly yanked off.
“Daddy, stop messing around.” Qiangu flips over and continues to sleep.
“Gu Tou, it’s me.” Dong Fang puts Qiangu’s jacket on her then helps her put on shoes as well.
Finally opening her eyes just a sliver, Qiangu thought she was still dreaming “Teacher, how did you get in here?”
“Don’t worry about that. Bei Dou and the others are drunk, come, I’ll take you to go see the stars.”
Dong Fang swop up the rather heavy Qiangu into his arms and flies out of the window.
On the other side, Sheng Xiao Mo quickly closes his window and pretends he didn’t see anything. “I have yet to see Zihua lose. Dong Fang, I am cheering you on! Ha ha!”

Her eyes wide with amazement as clouds float pass her, Qiangu wraps her arms tightly around Dong Fang. “Teacher, I just dreamt of you. How did you come out of my dream?”
Pleased, Dong Fang laughs “I only dream of Gu Tou as well.”
Qiangu blushes. What does he mean by that and why do those words sound so cheesy?
“Teacher, you are an immortal?”
“No, don’t call me teacher anymore. Call me Dong Fang.”
“Oh, Dong Fang. Where are we going?”
“In order to see the star, of course we have to the Milky Way.”
In a flash, Dong Fang has brought her into the sky, above the Milky way…this is the second time they have been here.
“I…I must still be dreaming.” Qiangu stares at seemingly endless stars with wonder.
Throwing out a fan that instantly turned into a small raft, Dong Fang leads Qiangu to it. Taking off her shoes, Qiangu sits in the raft and kicks her feet in the shining river of stars. Wrapping his arms around Qiangu, Dong Fang has to carefully avoid her chest area now that she is no longer the thin skinny kid she once was.

Leaning against Dong Fang, Qiangu lets out yelps of amazement with each passing incredible views.
A stick of radish suddenly shows up in front of her.
“Want to eat it?”
Taking the radish, Qiangu takes one crunchy bite.
“It’s so sweet! Thank you. Dong Fang, can you bring me here to play often?’
“Sure, are you willing to be with me forever?”
Qiangu nods with a shy smile. Does this mean teacher wants to marry her? Finally, someone wants her? That’s great! Daddy would be so happy! So what comes next? Yes, a kiss to seal their love!
Gently patting Qiangu’s head, Dong Fang laughs when he sees her closing her eyes and raising her face up to him. Pulling her into his arms, Dong Fang pats her back until Qiangu begins to feel like she is about to fall asleep. Despite being half asleep, Qiangu could still hear Dong Fang’s mutterings.
“Silly Gu Tou, you are someone else’s wife now so how can I just kiss you at will?”

“I know there are a lot of things you want to ask. It’s not that I don’t want to tell you but I myself don’t know the answer either. Trapped in the endless reincarnation, I have seen too much, so in truth, I am actually crueler than anyone else. I treated you as a pawn. I treated the Six Realms as a chess game. The birth of a demon goddess was just a game to me in my boring existence. But I lost. The cost was my heart and to lose you forever. If I could do it all over again, I would not let you go to Chang Liu, I would not let you meet him. This bet wasn’t to toy with you. No matter what, it will take at least 15 years to heal your eyes, instead of just sitting and waiting, I wanted to have more time to spend with you.”
“You are just too kind hearted. No matter how many times you have been tricked, you are still willing to trust me, to follow me. But after I have done so many things to hurt you, how can I bear to let you part from the one you love?”
Dong Fang gently caresses Qiangu’s face. Everything is a game to him…except her, she is the only thing that is real to him.
“Don’t ever, leave me any chance to take, Bai Zihua….”
Dong Fang suddenly turns around to stare at a bright point as Bai Zihua slowly walks out of it, hundreds and thousands of stars could not cover up his radiance. Dong Fang turns into a green smoke and disappears.


A bit short this week, but hopefully you guys had fun catching up with the first four chapters of The Bet.
