Chapter 212: Chapter 232: You Have Eight Hundred Cunning Schemes Up Your Sleeve _1

Lin Chen didn’t give Yingying any face and was unfazed by her veiled threats.

He knew that if he showed any weakness, Yingying would seize on it, and use it to threaten him.

He wouldn’t give her any opportunities!

She could rant and rave all she wanted.

Yingying looked at Lin Chen, who remained calm: "What is your background? Who taught you this level of cultivation?"

Lin Chen replied nonchalantly: "That seems to have nothing to do with you."

Yingying clenched her teeth: "Do you really need to be so wary of me?"

Lin Chen said matter-of-factly: "Shouldn’t I be wary of someone who might try to ruin my reputation in front of my wife at any time? You’re so cunning, I’d even have to check for hidden cameras if we slept together."

Yingying was speechless, and for a moment, she was at a loss on how to handle Lin Chen.

She couldn’t out-talk him or overpower him, which was quite frustrating.

The car drove into a secluded building, and Lin Chen looked around: "Where is this?"

"A place to eat."

Yingying and Lin Chen got out of the car, entered the building, and took the elevator. Yingying took out a card, swiped it, and pressed the button for the basement level.

Underground?

"Ding"

As the elevator doors opened, a corridor appeared, and the sounds of bustling activity faintly echoed through it.

Two well-built men stood by the elevator, respectfully lowering their heads when they saw Yingying, saying, "Hello, Miss."

Lin Chen turned his head: "A Zuo family business?"

Yingying smiled: "My business, just for fun."

Lin Chen followed the brightly lit corridor inside: "A restaurant?"

Yingying smiled: "Yes, but with some extras."

Before Lin Chen could ask, they passed through the corridor, and in front of them appeared a massive boxing ring.

"Boxing?"

Yingying replied: "Fighting."

Lin Chen looked around. Surrounding the boxing ring and on the second floor were numerous tables, booths (like those found in bars), and private rooms with floor-to-ceiling reflective glass.

"Matches to the death?"

Yingying lightly laughed: "Only if they’re willing. Otherwise, it’s just about winning or losing. Whoever gets injured and can’t continue loses."

Lin Chen looked at Yingying: "Why would a woman like you run a business like this?"

Yingying calmly replied: "If others can do it, why can’t I? I’ve been fascinated by cultivation since I was young. A master once said I’m a genius in cultivation."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "A genius? My apologies. So, what’s your current strength?"

Yingying snorted: "I’ve been looking for that master for years."

Lin Chen curiously asked: "What for?"

Yingying angrily said: "Because I want to beat him up; I think he was fooling me."

Lin Chen couldn’t help but smile: "Well, with your father being Tianhai’s richest man, anything’s possible, even if you were indeed a reincarnated master."

They both sat down at the best spot facing the ring and ordered the waiter to bring dishes.

The waiter brought a bottle of red wine and poured it for them. Yingying raised her glass, smiled, and said: "Let’s have a drink. Let bygones be bygones, what do you think?"

Lin Chen clinked his glass with Yingying: "It’s just a small accident in an otherwise ordinary life. Why even mention it?"

Yingying smiled charmingly: "Yes, an accident."

As the food was served, Lin Chen didn’t stand on ceremony with Yingying, grabbing his chopsticks and digging in. Yingying ate elegantly, watching Lin Chen eat with an amused, interested expression.

"Do you always act like this, fearless because of your exceptional skills?"

Lin Chen casually replied: "What’s there to be afraid of? At worst, I’ll just pay for this meal, it’s not like I can’t afford it."

Yingying asked: "I’m curious, you and your wife seem like people from two different worlds. How did you meet and get married?"

Lin Chen replied: "Arranged marriage."

"You agreed?"

Yingying asked, then laughed: "Well, your wife is so beautiful and goddess-like, of course you’d agree. And she was okay with it?"

Lin Chen laughed: "I’m quite handsome myself, so it wasn’t hard for her to accept."

Yingying laughed: "That’s true. As for life, if you can’t resist, just lie down and enjoy."

The two chatted like this while finishing their meal, and in the meantime, two fighters ascended the ring below. Many people began placing bets after the host’s introduction.

Lin Chen realized that these underground fights were held for wealthy people to bet on.

As Lin Chen prepared to watch, Yingying stood up: "These fighters aren’t very strong. None of them can withstand your punches. It’s not worth watching. Let’s go."

Lin Chen asked casually: "Where to?"

"After dinner, let me take you to relax your muscles and bones."

Lin Chen followed Yingying out of the restaurant, took the elevator up to the eighth floor, and entered a spacious room with a row of small beds.

Yingying smiled: "Change your clothes and experience the skills of my masseurs."

"Alright!"

Without any hesitation, Lin Chen took the loose clothes and went into the changing room.

Yingying watched Lin Chen enter, and then took a capsule from her purse, removed its cap, and dumped all of the powder inside into the teacup at Lin Chen’s seat.

Yingying glanced at the changing room and then at the teacup, a smug smile appearing on her face.
