Chapter 259: Chapter 279: You Should Take Advantage of an Easy Target When It Is Presented to You _1Four people avoided the lively crowd and went to a nearby lounge. Lin Chen said leisurely, "Miss Chu, there’s no one here. If there’s anything inconvenient to discuss in the presence of others, you can say it now." Searᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Chu Jiayi stared coldly at Lin Chen: "You calculated me!" Lin Chen said with a laugh: "You insisted on playing with us and brought up the bet on your own. I only changed the stakes, and you voluntarily accepted the bet. Even if I did calculate you, I did it openly and honestly. I didn’t force you to accept it, so can you really blame me?" Chu Jiayi coldly snorted: "I don’t have 20 million, but I’ll give you 2 million, and we’ll call it even. Send me your card number, and I’ll transfer the money to you right away!" Lin Chen smiled slightly and said unhurriedly: "Miss Chu, I think you should remember clearly that we bet 20 million. Oh, no, it was 19,500,000, not 2 million. I won’t take more or less of the stakes." Chu Jiayi sneered: "You’re really grasping for money in death, huh? Since you know I come from the Chu Family, aren’t you afraid that you’ll earn money but not get to spend it?" Lin Chen laughed: "You just worry about giving me the money. Whether I have the fate to spend it is my business. Maybe after I get the money, I’ll just run away. No matter how rich and powerful your Chu Family is, they still have to find me first." Chu Jiayi blinked and laughed coldly: "So you insist on having 19,500,000, right?" Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, I won it fair and square, so why shouldn’t I?" Chu Jiayi nodded and said readily: "Alright, you wait. I’ll make a phone call." Lin Chen chuckled: "Okay, you make the call first. Yue Yue, let’s continue playing." Lin Chen didn’t care about Bai Sheng and Chu Jiayi, and directly took Gu Yuexi back to the outer room to continue playing bowling. Gu Yuexi looked back at Chu Jiayi, who was making a phone call in the distance, and whispered: "What are you up to? I don’t think she’s calling for someone to prepare the money." Lin Chen laughed: "Of course not. She’s calling for someone, but not to prepare the money. She can’t come up with 20 million and can’t lose face for the Chu Family, so she can only call someone to settle me and make me keep quiet." Gu Yuexi frowned: "Is it necessary to make such a big fuss?" Lin Chen picked up a bowling ball and threw it out with pure technique instead of brute force – the ball rolled straight first and then went off course, barely knocking down three pins beside it. "It’s more challenging like this – brute force is too dull." Lin Chen chuckled and answered Gu Yuexi’s question, "I and the Chu Family are already at the point of no return. Naturally, I don’t need to worry about Miss Chu’s face. Today, I happened to run into her, so I took the opportunity to tease the Chu Family. They’ve been too quiet lately; I always feel like they’re preparing some big move against me." Gu Yuexi bit her lip, her eyes full of worry: "Will it be dangerous?" Lin Chen laughed: "Of course there is danger. If you want to kill others, you can’t avoid risking yourself. But don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. I estimate the result will come out in the next month or two. Why don’t you go on a trip and come back when things calm down?" Gu Yuexi shook her head: "No, my sister is still here, why should I run? In any case, I’ve said it before. If they target me, regardless of what they say, don’t worry about me – go catch some important people from the Chu Family first. I don’t believe they dare do anything to me." Lin Chen couldn’t help but smile: "You have a clear understanding of it. There are advantages to big families, but with a large family, there are more ties. I’ve talked to Chu Songfeng on the phone; your family won’t get involved in this, because they can’t afford the consequences, as you said." Gu Yuexi laughed: "Well, isn’t that settled then? I’ll stay here and watch you break the Chu Family!" Lin Chen chuckled: "Alright, let’s play first and wait for them to come." After about half an hour, a middle-aged man entered the gymnasium. He met with Chu Jiayi, and they talked for a while before Bai Sheng walked over. "Mr. Lin, someone from Jiayi’s family is here. Please come over." "Alright!" Lin Chen readily agreed and walked towards him with Gu Yuexi. At the same time, he casually asked: "Have you gotten the money together?" Bai Sheng’s expression was somewhat subtle, and it seemed a bit puzzled as he looked at Lin Chen. Is this guy really naive? Did he really believe Chu Jiayi’s phone call was to gather money for him? Did he actually think the person who came was here to give him money? "I’m not quite sure about the specifics. You can talk to him directly." Bai Sheng fumbled an answer, but he was thinking about how, after Lin Chen was dealt with, Gu Yuexi would definitely plead for Lin Chen. What should he do at that time? Pretend to plead for her sake? Mock her and kick her while she’s down in revenge? Thinking of the scene where Gu Yuexi took the initiative to hug and kiss Lin Chen just now, Bai Sheng’s heart burned with jealousy. Although he knew that she didn’t like him and had rejected him, and that they were consensual and had nothing to do with him, he was still very angry, feeling as if his own things were being taken away by someone else! Hmph! Lin Chen, you’re good at fighting, huh? I’d like to see how you get through this ordeal!
