Chapter 321: Leave One Finger Behind

Shen Binan felt as if struck by lightning, her expression instantly became spectacular, and the look in her eyes even more resentful.

It seemed as though Shen Binan’s icy mouth twitched for a moment, and after a long while, Binan mustered all her strength and said, "You... you really dare to think big, don’t you?"

Fang Yi said, "Just tell me plainly, do you have it or not?"

"No!"

Shen Binan’s answer was very decisive, and then, without waiting for this wretch to respond, she beckoned a female waitress over and said, "Take him to the rest area."

The waitress acknowledged and then approached Fang Yi with a smile, "Sir, please this way."

This woman is really ruthless, not even agreeing to such a small request; she really doesn’t take care of her subordinates.

However, Fang Yi was just joking and didn’t really want any special services, so he followed the waitress and left.

Shen Binan watched Fang Yi leave with the waitress, an ice-cold face revealing a hint of an amused yet helpless expression, and then huffed, "What a pervert!"

With that, Shen Binan turned and went elsewhere.

Fang Yi followed the waitress, walking further inside.

"Beauty, are you sure there’s no special service here?" Along the winding path under the ambiguous lights, Fang Yi felt bored and asked such a question.

The waitress showed a bitter smile on her face and said, "Sir, our establishment is legitimate."

Fang Yi said, "I know this place is legitimate, I was just asking. By the way, where are you taking me? Are there any beauties?"

The waitress smiled even more bitterly but luckily, they had arrived at their destination.

"Sir, you can rest here. We have pool tables, KTV, and various other leisure and entertainment options, all with a menu for your selection," the waitress said while taking out a thin brochure from a small shelf nearby and handing it to Fang Yi with both hands.

Fang Yi took it and said with a smile, "Great."

The waitress asked once again if Fang Yi required any other service, but before he could answer, she emphasized that they really did not provide any special services, truly intimidated by this particular customer, fearing his unreasonable behavior.

But Fang Yi did not make things difficult for the waitress, asking her to bring him a glass of sake with two lemon slices in it, then wandered around the spacious room with his drink in hand.

The place amounted to a grand hall that, judging from the decor, exuded luxury, but it was a restrained kind of luxury, lacking the outrageousness of a nouveau riche and possessing instead an air of noble elegance.

Within this hall, there were pool tables where some men were playing, while others were conversing in groups of two or three around a table. Aside from these, there were also small private rooms around the hall for chess, foot baths, massages, and other services.

Holding his glass of sake, Fang Yi strolled around the hall. Suddenly, a burst of noise erupted from a pool table not far away; it seemed there was something exciting going on.

Bored as he was, Fang Yi walked over, and upon seeing the person in the crowd, he couldn’t help but pause for a moment.

There stood a man holding a pool cue, none other than Lin Chen.

Next to Lin Chen was a big and burly fellow, muscular and taller than the average person, also holding a pool cue. Both the formidable man and Lin Chen had smug smiles plastered on their faces.

Opposite them stood a gaunt man, his face somewhat pale, a fleeting shadow of coldness passing through his eyes.

"You two... are truly recklessly bold. Do you know who I work for?" the gaunt man said coldly.

The burly man grumbled, "Don’t care who you’re with, if you lose, you pay up. A thousand per ball, we scored ten balls; cough up the money."

Lin Chen also said, "That’s right, a bet must be honored; it’s a very bad habit to go back on one’s word."

The gaunt man’s face looked even worse. Once upon a time, apart from that young master, no one dared to press him like this.

For him, ten thousand was not a significant amount; he could easily spend more than that without even thinking about it. However, the two men scoring ten balls in a row was a blow to his pride.

Even in Tianjing, he had never been so humiliated.

"Don’t just stand there, hurry up and pay up!" Lin Chen urged, clearly dissatisfied.

A sinister gleam flickered in the gaunt man’s eyes once more. Just as he was about to speak, the crowd parted, and a bespectacled man walked in.

The bespectacled man’s cheeks were sunken, making him look emaciated. Behind his glasses, his eyes were as sharp as a knife’s blade, yet they also held a shrewdness.

The bespectacled man walked up to the gaunt man and said, "Lu Hu, it seems you’re in quite a pickle."

The gaunt man known as Lu Hu gave a cold laugh and replied, "Hmph! Li Yin, it’s not your turn to meddle in my affairs."

"I’m not here to seek justice for you but rather to have some fun."

Li Yin adjusted his glasses with a hand and, smiling at Lin Chen and the muscular brute opposite him, said, "Gentlemen, I would like to play a round of pool with you. Ten thousand per ball; I wonder if you dare?"

Fang Yi, standing in the crowd, suddenly tensed as his pupils contracted. He could tell that this bespectacled man called Li Yin was not as weak as he appeared; Li Yin had deeply concealed his true strength.

Although they had never crossed paths, Fang Yi had this feeling.

At the same time, Lin Chen and the burly man simply couldn’t stand being provoked and immediately accepted the challenge.

"Hmph! Ten thousand a ball, soon you’ll lose even the pants you’re wearing!" Lin Chen said coldly.

"Good, I hope you’ll go easy on me," Li Yin said with a faint smile.

A pool table was quickly set up again, and Li Yin turned his attention to Lin Chen and the muscular brute.

"Hmph! You can break," Lin Chen said arrogantly.

"Thank you."

Li Yin did not decline and, with a smile, picked up the cue stick and began to shoot.

Pop!

Pop!

Pop!

The sound of balls sinking into pockets rang out one after another as they were struck accurately into the pockets. Li Yin’s every shot dazzled the onlookers as if it were a performance.

Lin Chen, who had carried an air of arrogance, suddenly had a look of extreme discomfort on his face.

Gasps of amazement arose from the surrounding crowd as they turned their attention to Li Yin, for they had never seen such pool skills.

Amidst the crowd, Fang Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly. This bespectacled man named Li Yin indeed had inscrutable abilities.

However, Fang Yi had no intention of intervening. There were already barriers and misunderstandings between him and Lin Chen, so seeing Lin Chen taught a lesson in this manner was to his satisfaction.

When the final ball failed to go in, Li Yin intentionally let out a sigh and said, "Ah, bad luck, I missed..."

Yet, anyone could tell that Li Yin had done it on purpose.

Li Yin looked up at Lin Chen and the muscular hulk, smiled faintly, and said, "Gentlemen, your turn."

Lin Chen had a defeated look, having already lost, what was the point of continuing?

Without further ado, Lin Chen said, "I’ll get you the money later," and then prepared to leave with the muscular brute.

Just then, a cold smirk appeared on Li Yin’s lips as he said, "No need for the money, just leave a finger behind."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen’s face instantly showed shock, which then turned into anger.
